Peerless Physician: The Path of a Foolish Eldest Daughter's Rise to Power

Yang Mujin looked at Gu Xinyue and said, "Xinyue, I will take care of the posting for you."

"Thank you, cousin."

"Xinyue, you should visit Prince Yi's residence tomorrow. This is also an opportunity to build good relations with Prince Yi's family."

"As you know, I saw the situation at Prince Yi's residence today and want to go there as soon as possible to see how things go. This is all the help I can offer. It would be best if we could be on good terms, but it's fine if we don't want to associate with the Gu family."

"These things should be handled as soon as possible."

“My older cousin is thinking long-term, but I don’t feel familiar with the capital. I’d rather they go back sooner rather than later, so I won’t worry about them. I’m not good at strategizing and planning ahead, considering all possible scenarios and making early decisions.”

"You clever little devil." Yang Mujin laughed after saying that, and Gu Xinyue also laughed happily.

This heartwarming scene was witnessed by Ms. Wang, who was passing by.

A good night's sleep.

In the early morning, Gu Xinyue looked at the clever Chuntao and the composed Xiahe and asked, "What are your special skills?"

"This servant can read and write, knows how to embroider, and has some martial arts skills. She is also very diligent."

"Even the maidservants can read and write. They know martial arts and are very good at light footwork."

"Although there aren't many rules here, when you return to the Marquis's mansion, you must abide by the rules of the mansion, and my maids must be loyal to me, as long as they are loyal."

The two hurriedly said, "We would never betray Miss, I swear to God."

"What I mean is that you should tell me everything that happens in the future, and don't betray me because of your reasons."

"Miss, I will never betray you."

"Okay, I'm going out today. Who's coming with me?"

Xia He said, "I'll go."

Chuntao said, "Sister Xiahe should go. She's skilled in martial arts and can protect Miss."

Today, Yang Ziwei's condition has improved significantly, and she is now able to get out of bed and walk around. This is undoubtedly a huge step forward and a great encouragement for her.

She slowly walked to the dressing table and gently sat down. She stared at herself in the mirror, frozen. Was that really her? She looked haggard, as if all her life had been drained away, revealing exhaustion and weakness.

She carefully examined herself in the mirror, a complex mix of emotions welling up inside her.

After years of suffering from illness, she lost her former radiance. Seeing herself so thin and frail now, Yang Ziwei couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness and helplessness.

But she also understands that this illness has brought her not only physical pain, but also spiritual trials and growth.

Looking at the dazed Yang Ziwei, Jixiang said, "Madam, with Miss here, you will surely recover."

Yang Ziwei's mood immediately improved when Gu Xinyue was mentioned.

After giving Gu Hui acupuncture, Gu Xinyue said, "You're so amazing! I won't give you acupuncture anymore. Just drink your medicine later, and you won't need to take any more medicine."

"Really? Sister, am I feeling better?"

"Don't you feel better? Have you been eating more these past two days, playing more, and studying for longer periods?"

Gu Hui smiled and said, "It seems so."

Under the bright sunshine and gentle breeze, Gu Xinyue led Xia He through the bustling crowd and into the quaint Pear Blossom Lane.

When they reached the door, a group of familiar faces appeared before them.

Everyone gathered around, their faces beaming with warm smiles, greeting Gu Xinyue and Xia He. For a moment, laughter and cheerful chatter filled the courtyard, as if time itself had stood still in this beautiful moment.

Gu Xinyue asked Hong Juan, "Are you adjusting well to life in Beijing? Did you experience any problems adjusting to the new environment?"

Hong Juan smiled and said, "Everything is fine."

Knowing that Hong Yu was not in any health problems, Gu Xinyue said, "This afternoon, I'm going to Prince Yi's residence as a guest. I'll take you with me. Now you can get ready."

Hong Juan and the others began to tidy up.

When Gu Xinyue saw the brother and sister dressed up in beautiful clothes, looking handsome and pretty, she was very happy.

Gu Xinyue complimented their clothes, and Hong Juan quietly told him that they were prepared by Master Guo for them to wear on important occasions.

They are the main characters today; it wouldn't seem shabby for them to meet Prince Yi and his consort like this.

She took Xia He and her brother Hong Yu to Prince Yi's mansion.

At the entrance of the Prince's Mansion, the gatekeeper was very welcoming. Soon, a woman in her forties came to greet them. Gu Xinyue did not miss the surprised expressions on Hong Yu and his sister's faces.

The pavilions and towers within the Prince's Mansion were scattered in a harmonious and breathtaking manner. In mid-November, the plants were still thriving. Gu Xinyue and the others felt as if they were in a fairyland, their eyes unable to take it all in.

After passing through several corridors, they finally arrived at the spacious and bright living room. The living room was brightly decorated, with beautiful furniture and rare antiques and paintings displayed in every corner, clearly indicating the owner's excellent taste and immense wealth. Gu Xinyue couldn't help but exclaim in amazement; this mansion was like an art gallery!

Soon, Prince Yi and his wife arrived at the living room. As soon as they entered and saw Hong Yu and his sister, they stood frozen at the door, their faces showing shock followed by joy.

Princess Yi rushed forward and hugged Hong Juan, calling out repeatedly, "Wan'er, Wan'er." She began to sob, and soon could not contain her emotions and burst into tears.

Seeing the elegant woman, both familiar and unfamiliar, so heartbroken, Hong Juan hugged her tightly and gently comforted her. She realized she missed her mother terribly; she was hallucinating, feeling that the noble lady before her resembled her mother.

Hong Yu was bewildered by the scene before him. He hadn't even seen the princess's face clearly yet the man staring at him seemed both familiar and strange.

Prince Yi looked at Hong Yu, his eyes reddening. He suppressed his emotions, patted Hong Yu's shoulder, and said, "Child, how have you been these past twenty years?"

Gu Xinyue sat down and quietly watched the Yi family reunite, observing the exciting and heartwarming scene.

Looking at the composed princess, Prince Yi suppressed his excitement and said softly, "Ning'er, look closely, who is this?"

Princess Yi released Hong Juan and walked up to Hong Yu, examining him closely. Hong Yu then saw the princess's face clearly and was shocked. The princess looked so much like his mother, but he was certain it wasn't her.

Princess Yi looked back and forth between Prince Yi and Hong Yu's faces several times, then gently stroked Hong Yu's eyebrows and eyes, choking back tears as she said, "Yu'er, Hong Yu, you're back. You know that your mother hasn't missed you for a single day in the past twenty years."

Then she gripped Hong Yu's hand tightly, as if afraid that if she let go, Hong Yu would vanish into thin air.

Hong Yu did not object to physical contact with Princess Yi. He knew it was against the rules, but he felt very close and comfortable with it.

Hong Juan looked at her brother, bewildered, wondering what was going on.

Prince Yi comforted Princess Yi, saying, "Ning'er, Hongyu is back, so he won't run away anymore. If he dares to run, I'll break his legs."

"That won't do. I want Yu'er to live a healthy and happy life." Then she said to Hong Yu with a pleading look, "Now that you're back, please don't leave again, okay?"

"I'm not leaving." Looking at the princess, Hong Yu answered so firmly, as if possessed by some kind of magic. He looked at Prince Yi and asked, "Your Highness, what's going on?"

Prince Yi helped Princess Yi to sit down in the main seat, and also let Hong Yu and his sister sit down. Then he said to Gu Xinyue, "You are Yang Mujin's cousin, Gu Xinyue."
