Regent, please maintain your aloof image.

That evening, Su Qianrou was writing a letter in her study, completely absorbed and engrossed, losing track of time.

Chunzhu said, "Your Highness, it's getting late, you should get some rest."

Su Qianrou ignored her and did not respond. After a while, she put down her pen and said, "Put the letter away." Then she got up and prepared to go back to her room to sleep. However, she suddenly felt dizzy when she got up, so she sat down again.

Chunzhu quickly supported her and said anxiously, "Your Highness, are you feeling dizzy again? This servant will go find the imperial physician right away."

Su Qianrou pulled her back, "No need, I'm fine."

"Your Highness, this is not the first time. You've been like this lately, and you've also lost your appetite. It would be best to have the imperial physician take a look at you."

"I cannot call the imperial physician at this time. If word gets out, people will speculate wildly. Besides, even if the imperial physician is called, he will only say that the princess is worried too much and is in a bad mood. I will prescribe some medicine and the princess will feel better after taking it. But a mental illness requires a mental cure. The princess must maintain a good mood."

"Your Highness, you're saying all this just because you don't want to take your medicine, right?"

"Chunzhu, have you ever heard a saying?"

"What".

"See through it but don't say it out loud."

"Then this servant will not say it next time."

Su Qianrou had a strange feeling that she had been coaxed like a child by her, and said, "Okay, I'm sleepy, go back to sleep."

So Chunzhu helped her up.

A few days later, Su Qianrou and Mu Zexuan were having a meal.

Su Qianrou had little appetite and even felt nauseous, but she endured it so as not to worry Mu Zexuan.

Seeing that she was eating very little, Mu Zexuan asked, "Aunt, what's wrong? Is the food not to your liking? Why aren't you eating?"

"No, I'm just not hungry."

"But you don't look well. Should I call the imperial physician to take a look?"

"No need, I'm fine."

Mu Zexuan immediately grasped the key point and said, "You're worried about your royal uncle, aren't you?"

Su Qianrou did not deny it, and replied, "Yes, a little."

Now, they have no other way to comfort themselves but in this way.

"I've noticed that you've lost weight recently, so you need to eat more," Mu Zexuan said, placing a piece of fish into her bowl.

Su Qianrou didn't want him to worry, so she picked it up and ate it, but she couldn't help but vomit.

"Aunt, what's wrong with you? Imperial Physician, quickly call the Imperial Physician."

Su Qianrou was very upset, but she still said, "No, I'm fine."

"Your Highness, you're in such a state, and you still say you're fine?" Chunzhu was so anxious she was almost crying.

"It's much better now."

"Aunt, why don't we have the imperial physician take a look?" Mu Zexuan said with a worried expression.

"No, the news that I'm sick can't get out."

"Now is not the time to think about this; your health is more important."

"I'm really fine. I guess I just haven't had enough rest. Don't worry."

Before Mu Zexuan could say anything more, Yingyue ran in with a joyful expression, excitedly saying, "Your Majesty, Master, the Prince has been found!"

"What did you say? Say it again," Su Qianrou said, her surprise mixed with uncertainty.

"The prince has been found."

Su Qianrou was so happy she couldn't speak.

Mu Zexuan was also very excited, "Aunt, did you hear that? Uncle has been found."

"I heard it."

"I knew it, my uncle would be alright."

After a while, Su Qianrou asked, "Is Your Highness injured?"

Yingyue replied, "I am injured, but my life is not in danger."

"That's good, that's good," Su Qianrou said, relieved. Then she added, "Go and spread the word that the Prince is safe and sound immediately."

“Yes,” Yingyue then took out two letters and handed them to her. “My lady, these are letters from the Prince and the Second Young Master to you.”

Su Qianrou immediately took it and eagerly opened the letter Mu Jinchen had given her. It contained only four words: "All is well, do not worry." Seeing that his handwriting was somewhat messy and unlike his usual style, she knew that his hand must have been injured.

Next, Su Qianrou opened the letter Su Haoyu had given her.

Sister, I've found my brother-in-law. He was a little injured, but it's nothing serious. Don't worry, we'll go back after we've taken care of things here.

This was definitely the happiest day for Su Qianrou in nearly a month; the smile on her face was impossible to hide.

Afterwards, she went to the study and wrote a reply to Mu Jinchen. She wrote a lot of words in a short time, but after she finished writing, she asked Chunzhu to put it away.

Chunzhu asked in confusion, "Your Highness, now that the Prince has returned, why don't you send it to him instead of keeping it?"

"It's just some venting; there's no need to show it to him."

Chunzhu didn't ask any more questions and put the letter aside.

Su Qianrou then picked up her pen again and wrote another letter, but it only contained a short sentence: "The afterglow of the setting sun awaits your return."

Since learning that Mu Jinchen was safe and sound, Su Qianrou's dizziness has stopped, her appetite has improved, and she looks much healthier than before. Therefore, Chunzhu and Mu Zexuan no longer forced her to see the imperial physician.

At this moment, she was reading a storybook. Before, she was always lost in thought and couldn't concentrate on it, but now she was reading it with great interest.

After an unknown amount of time, Chunzhu entered with a beaming smile and said mysteriously, "Your Highness, look who's back."

Upon hearing this, Su Qianrou assumed that Mu Jinchen had returned and hurriedly looked towards the door. When she found that it wasn't him, she wasn't disappointed but instead exclaimed with delight, "Qiulan, you're back!"

Qiulan quickly walked up to her and said, "This servant greets Your Highness."

Li An followed closely behind and said, "This humble servant greets Your Highness."

"Why didn't you tell me you were coming back? I would have sent someone to pick you up."

"Isn't this just to give the princess a surprise?" Ang Lee said with a smile.

“It is indeed a great surprise,” he said, then asked, “Have Vice Minister Song, Vice Minister Li, and Physician Xu all returned as well?”

"They have all returned and are currently meeting with His Majesty."

"You must be tired from your long journey. Go back and get some rest, especially Qiulan, you've worked so hard these past few days."

“I am not suffering; it is the people of Qingtong County who are truly suffering.”

"It's all in the past, things will get better in the future."

"Ok".

"Alright, you guys should go back and rest now. You look so tired, you've even lost weight."

"This servant will stay and serve you."

"There will be plenty of time for you to serve me in the future. You should go back and rest first. I have Chunzhu and Yingyue here, so I don't need you."

"Then this servant will go back first and enter the palace again tomorrow."

"No rush, it's fine to rest for a few days."

“Your Highness, you are unaware of this. On the way back, she was worried that you might have a new concubine and no longer need her to serve you,” Li An exposed.

Qiulan glared at him.

Chunzhu joked, "Qiulan, don't worry. Your position in the Princess's heart is only slightly less than mine. The Princess will definitely not abandon you."

Su Qianrou chuckled and replied, "No, not at all."

Qiulan felt a little embarrassed, and her cheeks flushed slightly.
