“Hmm.” Gu Qingheng nodded, “I will send someone to keep an eye on his movements.”

Yang Ruxin didn’t say anything more, as her information network hadn’t been established yet, especially in a distant place like Hanzhong where it was temporarily out of reach.

An hour later, Yunxiong came out of the wooden tub and clearly felt much more comfortable than before, even feeling hungry.

“You’ve just soaked in a medicine bath, and your body is still weak.” Yang Ruxin instructed someone to bring a bowl of plain porridge with a small dish of pickled vegetables, “You shouldn’t eat meat, nor should you eat too much, so we can only temporarily inconvenience the Princess.”

“Thank you, Xinxin.” Yunxiong didn’t mind at all, taking the bowl and quickly finishing it, then patted her stomach, “The porridge here tastes better than anywhere else, how could it be an inconvenience?”

“If you don’t mind, the Princess can temporarily sleep in the side room, and when you wake up, you can have dinner…”

In the evening, Qi Jinghao personally came to pick up the Princess.

Yunxiong’s complexion already had some color.

“The Princess’s health has greatly benefited from the madam.” Qi Jinghao brought some gifts, all very expensive.

“The body needs to be cared for.” Yang Ruxin said with double meaning, “Women need even more care, otherwise if something goes wrong, it would be such a pity.”

Qi Jinghao stared directly at Yang Ruxin for a long time before finally nodding: “Yes, it’s actually my mistake that the Princess has been bedridden all these years, rest assured, I will be more mindful in the future.”

“Prince, Xinxin prepared a medicine bath for me, and I just slept for a while, now I feel very comfortable…” Yunxiong said with a smile to Qi Jinghao, “Is it possible to stay a few more days, so I can soak a few more times?”

Qi Jinghao smiled: “If the General and madam don’t mind, then of course I would be happy, I just hope you can be healthy.”

Yunxiong then looked back at Yang Ruxin with a pleading gaze.

Yang Ruxin frowned, but it was really hard to refuse, so she just smiled, “Since the Princess has said so, how can I refuse?”

There was a hint of apology in Yunxiong’s eyes, but it disappeared in an instant, and then she smiled, “Thank you, Xinxin.”

“However, you both have noble statuses, my place is just a countryside, surrounded by villagers, and my home doesn’t have such good conditions, so…”

“It’s okay.” Yunxiong hurriedly shook her head, “You don’t have to treat me as a Princess… you can tell the outsiders I’m your… god-sister…”

Yang Ruxin laughed and shook her head: “Xinxin wouldn’t dare presume to such high connections.” Then directly asked someone from the Ye Family to take her next door to Zengfu Building for accommodations.

Xiaofeng originally stayed in that courtyard of Zengfu Building, but after Yang Ruxin left, he returned to Daguan Building, and now he didn’t move back, so it could serve as a guest courtyard.

There was a flash of disappointment in Yunxiong’s eyes, but she couldn’t continue to pester.

“Prince, with the Princess staying at my place, I’m actually taking a big risk.” Yang Ruxin said, after Yunxiong left, looking up at Qi Jinghao, “Even brothers keep clear accounts, so you see…”

“I understand.” Qi Jinghao couldn’t help but laugh, then turned around and took two silver notes from the guard behind him, “If it’s not enough, I’ll make up for it when leaving.”

Yang Ruxin accepted the five thousand taels of silver without hesitation, nodded: “No problem.” Then handed the silver notes to Chun Hua beside her.

The corners of Qi Jinghao’s mouth twitched, thinking how this woman really is straightforward.
