She still wanted to fight with Su Mingyu. But in her current state, what could she use to fight?
Seeing her so reluctant, Su Mingyu felt a bit helpless. "You'd better just wait for the imperial physician to come and check on you."
"Hey, don't go. Could you pour me a glass of water? I'm so thirsty," Wu Yurou called out to Su Mingyu who was about to leave. "I'm really thirsty. Please give me some."
Seeing this, Su Mingyu had no choice but to pour a glass of warm water and then came to the bedside to feed Wu Yurou a little.
With her mouth no longer so dry, Wu Yurou's voice was no longer so hoarse. "If His Majesty knew that I got sick here with you, do you think he would be unhappy and punish you?"
"You yourself said it was due to the acclimatization. How could you blame me for this?" Su Mingyu felt a bit helpless. How was this girl's thought process structured? Her thinking was really too jumpy.
"Don't say that. This matter is really your fault," Wu Yurou pouted. "If you hadn't suddenly slapped me and scared me, I wouldn't have had a fever."
Seeing her look so justified, Su Mingyu couldn't help but roll her eyes helplessly. "Princess, do you know how big a mistake you made that day? Disappearing from people's sight with Su Yueyue. Aren't you afraid that she would frame you? That slap I gave you was to help you."
"Do you think if the Emperor knew that you almost harmed his great - grandson and then bossed around and scolded his son's concubine, would he give you a good look?"
As she said this, Su Mingyu raised her eyebrows. "Although you said before you came that you would choose your own husband, but you haven't taken any action for so long and you're so arrogant. What if the Emperor gets unhappy and just assigns you a minister who isn't even a prince, and tells your envoy to go back and say that was the one you chose yourself? What could you do then?"
Wu Yurou really hadn't thought this much. She just thought that she wanted to be with Gu Ruobai, so she disliked the other princes.
But she hadn't thought that she was here for a political marriage. If she didn't take any action for a long time, the Emperor would surely be angry when he found out, and she wouldn't get any good results.
Wu Yurou's face looked a bit ugly. She wanted to say something but hesitated. This made Su Mingyu a bit puzzled.
Just as she was about to ask, she heard a cold voice from the door. "I heard that the princess has caught a cold. I have several prescriptions here that are specifically for typhoid."
After hearing this, the princess widened her eyes. "How could it be you?"
The King of Yu slowly walked in from the door. "I came specifically to see you."
As he said this, the King of Yu waved the things in his hand and walked straight in.
Seeing his look as if he was in his own home, Su Mingyu felt a bit helpless. This guy really treated this place as his own home.
But it was good that the King of Yu came. Su Mingyu just happened to find an opportunity to slip away. After all, there was an angry Gu Ruobai in the mansion. That guy was not easy to deal with.
Just as Su Mingyu got up to leave, the imperial physician came.
He got into position and felt Wu Yurou's pulse. After a long while, the imperial physician said, "It should be that the princess has just come to the capital and isn't used to the climate here, so she caught a cold. I'll just prescribe some medicine."
Hearing that Wu Yurou really just had a cold, Su Mingyu then turned around and left. And before going out, she specifically gave the King of Yu a look of encouragement, which made Wu Yurou extremely annoyed.
Finally, Su Mingyu finished dealing with the miscellaneous things in the yard. Just as she was thinking of going to find Gu Ruobai, Gu Ruobai had already come to her. "Were you a bit too busy today?"
Su Mingyu didn't dare to look directly into Gu Ruobai's eyes. "I wasn't that busy. I was just a little..."
As she said this, Su Mingyu took the man's hand and pushed Gu Ruobai forward. "So, my lord, where shall we go now?"
"Back to the bedroom!" Gu Ruobai's tone was a bit heavy. Su Mingyu only felt a shiver in her heart. "Um... Please go a bit easier on me when you punish me with the family rules later."
Gu Ruobai turned back to look at her, then curled his thin lips. "Guess?"
Because of this guess, Su Mingyu missed dinner.
It was not until noon the next day that she managed to get out of bed, supporting her waist. Feeling the stabbing pain in her waist, Su Mingyu frowned.
"Gu Ruobai! You're going too far!"
"I just prepared some congee for you, and you're already scolding me?" Gu Ruobai's voice drifted over from the door.
Su Mingyu was a bit scared. If Gu Ruobai really beat her, Su Mingyu wouldn't mind that much. But this kind of soft - hearted way, Su Mingyu was really afraid of it.
So she quickly covered her mouth. "No, I'm not."
As she said this, Su Mingyu supported her waist and sat on the bed. "I've already talked to the people in the villa. I'll take you there this afternoon. Call Mu Yi. After all, I'll be playing someone else later and won't be able to help you."
Gu Ruobai nodded. "Will you be able to go this afternoon with your body like this?"
Su Mingyu patted her chest. "I can go. But could you please not go so far next time?"
Gu Ruobai ignored her. "Then you should rest a bit more. I'll come and call you later."
Su Mingyu finished the congee and then lay back on the bed, waving her hand. "I can't sleep at all. Do you think I'm a pig?"
"Isn't that so?" Gu Ruobai asked back quite naturally. Su Mingyu's face instantly darkened with anger.
Seeing this, Gu Ruobai quickly changed his words. "Then I'll accompany you to rest. Do you want to listen to a story? I'll tell you one."
Almost without thinking, Su Mingyu rolled her eyes at him. "I don't want to listen to any story. I'm not a child anymore. Tell me about the current situation in the yard."
Hearing her say this, Gu Ruobai knew that what she wanted to ask was about Wu Yurou.
"The King of Yu left last night. It seems that he had a good chat with Wu Yurou."
Su Mingyu nodded after hearing this. "That's good. What about Zhizhu?"
"Qingfeng didn't come back yesterday. What do you want me to say?" Gu Ruobai raised his eyebrows. "Alright, just lie down properly and don't worry so much."
Su Mingyu pursed her lips. "I'm always worried about Zhizhu's matter."
Gu Ruobai reached out his hand to massage Su Mingyu's temples. "Qingfeng is just too stubborn. He's not a bad person. Zhizhu will get along well with him."
Su Mingyu leaned wearily on Gu Ruobai's shoulder and casually replied with an "um".
The sun was shining brightly outside the window, and it was very warm beside the bed. Such a tender scene made the air warm.
Su Mingyu was also a person who couldn't stay idle. After resting until she felt that her waist could still function, she took Gu Ruobai to the villa on the outskirts of the city.
Shi Minglong's wounds had obviously gotten better. Su Mingyu stepped forward and let Gu Ruobai behind her step out. "Shi Minglong, I've brought the person you want to see."
