"Your Majesty, it was you who personally asked Jing Xunche to lead the troops. Now you're questioning his ability. I wonder what Your Majesty intends to do? Everything takes time, not to mention a war. Now their provisions are running out, but instead of inquiring about the provision of supplies first, Your Majesty asks when the war will end. Isn't this too irresponsible?"
"The so - called principle is that if you suspect someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't suspect them. Your Majesty's actions will make us ministers wonder how we can serve Your Majesty whole - heartedly in the future. We haven't even started yet, but we're already suspected by Your Majesty. Isn't that unjust?"
After Yuan Yuhan finished speaking, all the ministers below looked at Yuan Yuchuan on the dragon throne. Yes, wouldn't His Majesty's actions chill their hearts?
"Your Majesty, I believe it will still take some time to capture Wupian Mountain. Please support them quickly," a neutral minister stepped forward and said to Yuan Yuchuan on the high platform.
"Your Majesty, I've also attacked Wupian Mountain. The terrain there is easy to defend but hard to attack. It's already quite an achievement that the Marquis hasn't sent news of defeat since he went there," a military general stepped forward empathetically.
Yuan Yuchuan looked at the people below. His face was as black as the bottom of a pot. Damn it, they dared to question his ability, but in front of everyone, he had to hide the violence in his eyes.
"In that case, let the Regent and Prime Minister Feng prepare the provisions together. I order you to gather the provisions within three days and send them to the military camp." Aren't they forcing him? Fine, you prepare them yourselves. I've given you the time. If you prepare the provisions after the time limit, it'll be another story.
After the court session, Yuan Yuhan came out with a cold face. This dog emperor is really overreaching. When he's ready, he'll pull this scoundrel down!
Gather the provisions in three days and quietly prepare highly skilled doctors to deal with the epidemic. Damn it!
Suddenly, Yuan Yuhan thought of someone, Mu Fengqie!
She's from the Medicine Master Valley. There are plenty of talented people there. Starting directly from the Medicine Master Valley won't be noticed. He's really a genius. However, he can't let Mu Fengqie know about this, or she'll definitely not be able to stay in the palace.
Yuan Yuhan was thinking as he entered the harem.
"Master, the Regent is here," a servant said.
Mu Fengqie, who was closing her eyes and resting under a tree, slowly opened her eyes. For some reason, her heart had been fluttering these days, as if something big was about to happen.
"Let him in," she said. Maybe Yuan Yuhan could explain the reason for her uneasiness today.
"Um, Fengqie, how have you been lately?" Yuan Yuhan came in with a beaming greeting. His obsequious look was so embarrassing that even Yuan Yerui beside him couldn't stand it.
What a disgrace.
"Just say what you're here for," Mu Fengqie glanced at Yuan Yuhan and said indifferently.
"Actually, it's nothing much. I just want to borrow some people from the Medicine Master Valley," Yuan Yuhan said, rubbing his hands.
"Hmm? What do you want them for?" Mu Fengqie scrutinized Yuan Yuhan, trying to read something from his expression, but all she saw was his foolishness.
"It's just for some use. Please lend me a few on account of our good relationship," Yuan Yuhan said nervously, fearing that Mu Fengqie would notice something.
"Alright, Zhu Fei, go back with the Prince. Zhu Fei is an old - timer in the Medicine Master Valley. Just ask Zhu Fei for help if you need anything," Mu Fengqie said and closed her eyes again.
Yuan Yuhan was stunned. This... Why didn't things go as expected?
"Um, the people I want are those who are good at medicine, preferably really skilled ones," Yuan Yuhan said carefully.
Mu Fengqie suddenly opened her eyes and stared directly at Yuan Yuhan. "Your Highness still won't tell the truth? What happened to A Che?"
"How could that be? What could happen to Jing Xunche?" Yuan Yuchuan forced a smile awkwardly. His back was cold. Help! Why was Mu Fengqie so sensitive? She guessed it right away. Didn't they say that a pregnant woman would be stupid for three years? Why was this woman so smart?
"Yerui, come here and practice. Your opponent is him," Mu Fengqie pointed at Yuan Yuhan.
Hearing this, Yuan Yerui immediately got excited. He rolled up his sleeves and ran towards Yuan Yuhan. Originally, Yuan Yuhan didn't take just Yuan Yerui seriously, but these guys were so unfair that they all came out.
Yuan Yuhan glanced at Zhu Fei and Zhu Yan beside him and sighed helplessly. "Since you want to know, I'll just tell you."
Only then was Mu Fengqie satisfied. She waved her hand and told them to step back. "Go ahead."
Yuan Yuhan looked at Mu Fengqie with a complicated expression. He silently thought in his heart: Jing Xunche, don't blame me. It's really your woman who is too unreasonable. I'm forced to do this.
"Something did happen to Jing Xunche. There's an epidemic in his army. But it was just discovered, so it's not very serious yet. It's still under control. You don't need to worry too much. Just send some people from your Medicine Master Valley there."
Mu Fengqie stood up as soon as she heard about the epidemic. Her face turned pale. How could this happen?
"The situation is not that simple. It's precisely because it was just discovered that it's serious. I have to go there myself," Mu Fengqie said and turned around to pack her things and set off.
"Fengqie, what are you doing? You're pregnant now, and this is the palace. Can you just leave whenever you want?" Yuan Yuhan stopped Mu Fengqie.
"Do you want me to abandon A Che?" Mu Fengqie trembled and looked at Yuan Yuhan with red eyes.
"I..." Yuan Yuhan looked at Mu Fengqie and didn't say a word. Telling her was his limit. He would never let her take risks. "Anyway, you can't go."
"Yuan Yuhan, he's my husband, the one I'll spend my whole life with. I can't let him bear this alone. Besides, I'm the most skilled doctor in the Medicine Master Valley," Mu Fengqie pushed Yuan Yuhan away and walked into the room.
"I know, but Jing Xunche doesn't want you to go. Think about it. If you accidentally get infected, it'll be two lives at stake! Can you bear it? Will the child be stillborn because of her mother before she's even born?" Yuan Yuhan questioned.
Mu Fengqie stopped in her tracks after hearing Yuan Yuhan's words. She slowly placed her hands on her belly, and her eyes were full of complexity.
After seeing Mu Fengqie stop, Yuan Yuhan's eyes flashed with surprise. He continued, "Zhanzhi also hopes that this child will be born safely. You can't let him down, right?"
Mu Fengqie closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, and said, "I also hope that this child can be born safely."
