This imperial doctor is a down-to-earth person, he is not arrogant and is quite humble.
Hua Lan gave another instruction: "Sir..."
Before she could finish speaking, the imperial doctor took the initiative and said: "Madam, don't worry, I will never tell anyone about this matter. I came to Sheng Mansion to see a doctor. I have never met Duke Jingguo and Madam."
"Thank you, sir."
After seeing off the imperial doctor and returning to Shou'an Hall, everyone in the Sheng family gathered together again.
Hua Lan took the initiative and said: "Grandma, father, and officials have already told me that I want to return to the Duke's Mansion to cultivate myself, so I won't nag here."
Just as Sheng Hong was about to speak, the old lady spoke first and said, "Let's go back then. Sanlang hasn't shown up at the Duke's Mansion for several days. It won't be good for a long time."
Sheng Hong swallowed what he wanted to say.
Hua Lan added: "I am also planning to take Prince Kang and her people back to the Duke's Palace."
"Hua'er." As soon as Wang Ruofu called out, Sheng Hong scolded: "Shut up."
"Hua'er, you can take that poisonous woman away, but she caused Shuyuan such misery. You can deal with her how you want."
Although he also wanted to kill the Kang Wang family, he understood that he was not suitable to take action on this matter. After all, she was his eldest sister, and he did not have the courage. It would be best to leave it to Hualan and Zhou Chen.
Wang Ruofu opened his mouth, but thinking about his current situation, he couldn't save himself, so how could he have the nerve to plead for his sister.
Zhou Chen and Hua Lan did not stay any longer, and quickly left the Sheng Mansion with their people from the Duke's Mansion and returned to the Jingguo Duke's Mansion.
After returning to the Duke's Mansion, Zhou Chen made a special appearance and was seen by many people before returning to his room.
"Cough cough, cough cough."
Zhou Chen lay on the bed and coughed weakly.
Hua Lan asked with concern: "Guanren, how are you? Did you get bumpy on the road?"
Zhou Chen said in a weak voice: "I'm fine, how is mother?"
"Mom, she is getting much better, especially after knowing that you, the official, are awake, her mood has improved a lot, and her condition has recovered a lot."
"That's good. If it's because of me that I make my mother sad, then it would be a sin. Ahem."
Zhou Chen coughed a few more times, and then said: "Madam, you asked someone to take my badge to the palace to ask for leave, saying that I was sick and needed a long period of rest."
"Okay, I'll ask someone to ask for leave later."
Hualan can't care about anything else now. She just wants to let Zhou Chen have a good rest and recover well. After all, the imperial doctor also said before that Zhou Chen was deeply poisoned. Although he woke up, his internal organs may still be injured. If he doesn't recover well,
, the body is likely to leave sequelae.
You must know that Zhou Chen is a military commander. If something goes wrong with his body, it will be a big trouble.
Zhou Chen was not worried at all that the officials would not let him ask for leave. He knew that the officials were eager for his absence, and they also hired an imperial doctor this time, so the matter of his 'poisoning' would definitely not be hidden from the palace.
As he expected, as soon as the imperial doctor returned to the palace, the officials called him over and asked him about the situation in person.
Although the imperial doctor promised Hua Lan not to tell anyone, he didn't dare to hide it when facing the officials. He still told the truth truthfully, but he only talked about Zhou Chen's "poisoning". How did he get poisoned? Who was it?
He shied away and said he didn't know about the poison.
"Poisoned, severely injured?"
After the official heard this, he was shocked. He never expected such a result.
Immediately afterwards, he heard a report that someone from the Duke of Jingguo's office had announced the leave of the Duke of Jingguo, saying that Duke Jingguo was ill.
This immediately made him understand that the imperial doctor had not lied, and something had really happened to Duke Zhou Chen of Jingguo.
"It's really the right time..."
The officials could know from the imperial doctor that Zhou Chen was 'poisoned', so naturally the Queen Mother could too.
When the Queen Mother learned about this, she was as shocked as the officials. She had seen Zhou Chen's bravery with her own eyes. How could such a peerless general be poisoned?
What she is more curious about is how Zhou Chen was poisoned and why he was poisoned in Sheng Mansion. There may be many secrets in this.
