Chapter 109: Prince Heng Visits the Sick
Ever since Zhao Yuan moved in, Xianyue Courtyard had opened a small kitchen, under the pretext of making medicine. The aroma of medicine wafted through the courtyard, beyond the wall of rose bushes and into the noses of some people outside the wall.
Chen Qingqing, who was alone in the empty room, looked at the dark night. It was as quiet as a pool of stagnant water without a single sound.
They had only been married for two or three days, and had enjoyed a day of love and pleasure, but the prince fell ill. Would he have to be a widow for the rest of his life? He was only eighteen years old! Thinking of this, Chen Qingqing was overwhelmed with grief and started to cry.
Chunmei, Chunya, Chunmeng, and Chunxi, my close friends, you look at me, I look at you, and I don’t know how to comfort you.
Chun Ya thought for a moment and said comfortingly: "When we get out, I will go buy you your favorite bubble milk tea."
Although Chen Qingqing felt uncomfortable, she felt a little better: "Little hoof, being your master is worth a cup of pearl milk tea!"
"Master, this is just the beginning. I believe that the prince will change when he knows how good you are." Chun Meng comforted.
Chunmei echoed, "That's right! Chunya will treat you to pearl milk tea, and I will run errands."
Chun Ya pointed at Chun Mei and chased her: "What? Chun Mei, you are such a good boy, behave yourself!"
The two of them playing and fighting added a lot of joy to the house.

Zhao Yuan turned the beads in his hand, but couldn't understand why his uncle, Prince Heng Zhao Mingye, who always lived in seclusion, would suddenly visit him.
Anyone else who came could be kept out, except this little uncle.
Zhao Yuan had no choice but to wait and see. He lay down on the couch, covered with a thick quilt, and looked at the boiled medicine soup on the coffee table in front of the couch. "Drink the medicine quickly."
Lin Yan was speechless: "This is your medicine!"
"I'm not sick, this is for you."
"But I'm not sick." Lin Yan said.
"I've been trying hard for several months, but there's been no results, and yet you still say you're not sick. Drink it quickly," Zhao Yuan urged.
"I'm not the only one who can't bear fruit. Aren't your other wives and concubines the same?" Lin Yan retorted.
Zhao Yuan was so choked that he didn't know how to respond. There were already chaotic footsteps coming from the yard. Zhao Yuan suddenly became anxious: "Drink it quickly!"
Martin's respectful voice could already be heard.
The smell of medicine was very strong and the footsteps were getting closer. Lin Yan had no choice but to pinch her nose, pick up the bowl, and drink it all in one gulp.
Just as he put down his bowl, Martin came outside to report: "Your Majesty, Prince Heng is here."
Lin Yan immediately stood aside respectfully, and Zhao Yuan said, "Please come in." When he saw the bead curtain swaying, he slowly stood up, his trembling appearance made people feel distressed, and then he respectfully saluted to King Heng: "Hello, uncle! I am sorry for not welcoming you in person! I hope you can forgive me!"
King Heng frowned when he saw Zhao Yuan's face. His face was dark, his eye sockets were dark blue, and he really looked sick. He asked with concern, "I heard that you were sick, but I didn't believe it. I came to see you, but I didn't expect you to be so sick. You should go to bed quickly."
However, Zhao Yuan quickly shook his head and said firmly: "It's okay. The royal uncle came to visit me specially. How dare I lie in bed?" Although he said that he was fine, his body was soft and he leaned weakly on Lin Yan beside him.
The sudden weight made Lin Yan grit her teeth and support herself, secretly groaning in her heart. Zhao Yuan, who doesn't look fat, is so heavy. Really, if you want to pretend to be sick, just do it, why do you have to put pressure on me?
On the contrary, the Prince Heng, whom Zhao Yuan called uncle, looked really young. He seemed not much older than Zhao Yuan, probably thirty years old at most. He was of medium build, and looked particularly elegant in a white shirt and a golden crown. He exuded a charming aura, which fascinated Lin Yan for a moment.
Zhao Yuan pinched her secretly, which made her come back to her senses and look down at the floor.
Prince Heng smiled gently and didn't care about Lin Yan's absent-mindedness. He continued to ask: "Have you asked the imperial physician to take a look? What did the imperial physician say?"
Zhao Yuan replied, "I have already consulted Dr. Lu from the Imperial Hospital. He said that I may have contracted a serious disease when I went south, and I am afraid that I may infect others. It is best to isolate me for a while. Therefore, everyone in the mansion is taking medicine for prevention, and we dare not go out easily, for fear of spreading the disease to others."
Prince Heng had not expected that it would be such a difficult and troublesome disease, and he did not intend to talk much. He casually asked a few more questions about family matters, casually mentioned a few words about the theft of official silver in Sancha County, asked about Zhao Yuan's investigation ideas, and praised him a few words.
These were some of the things Zhao Yuan had said in the court, and he didn't take them too seriously. This case had caused a sensation in the entire court, and curiosity was inevitable, so Zhao Yuan answered them one by one.
Using other things as an excuse, we chatted for a few minutes, but didn't dare to stay any longer and just got up and left.
"Martin, bring a pack of medicine to King Heng, just as a precaution!" Zhao Yuan specifically instructed as he was walking towards Heng. Lin Yan supported Zhao Yuan and sent King Heng to the gate of the courtyard.
King Heng paused for a moment and quickened his pace. Everything outside returned to calm again. Lin Yan turned around and was shocked when she saw Zhao Yuan in front of her.
"Your Highness, why did you suddenly become like this?" Lin Yan asked in surprise.
"Didn't I tell you that I was infected with a serious disease? Now you should believe it. If I really died, would you be sad?" Zhao Yuan said seriously.
Lin Yan reached out her hand and gently stroked Zhao Yuan's face with heartache, but Zhao Yuan, in return, held her wrist tightly and rubbed her hand back and forth on his cheek.
"Your Highness, there's no need to act anymore. Your face seems to be rosy again!" Lin Yan felt that she was too easily fooled. She was really worried just now. Suddenly, she found that her hands had turned extremely black and exploded instantly. How could Zhao Yuan put on makeup in an instant? It was really amazing.
"Don't you want to know why I do this?" Zhao Yuan reluctantly let go of her hand and stared at Lin Yan with deep affection in his eyes.
"If the prince wants to tell me, he will naturally tell me. If he doesn't want to tell me, he must have his reasons. If I ask further, it will only add to my troubles." Lin Yan replied calmly.
"Your mouth is still as considerate as before!" Zhao Yuan looked at her with a smile on his lips.
As he said this, he leaned over and kissed her lips.
It's a bit funny to say, but he likes Lin Yan, this lively girl, the most, no matter if she happily accepts it, or resists it impatiently, or even trembles in fear of his contact with her body.
He knew that what Lin Yan wanted most was to have only her in his life.
But for some things, the rules are there and he can't change them.
But under the rules, he can give his true heart.
"Ayan, I won't let go no matter what. It's better to accept it than to resist." Zhao Yuan said in a low voice.
His voice is deep and magnetic, making people's heart beat faster.
After saying that, he leaned down again and gently kissed Lin Yan's lips with his sexy lips.
Lin Yan's heartbeat suddenly quickened. Was she really moved by him? It was undeniable that she was a little moved.
"Men's words are lies! Especially men in high positions of power, how many of them truly treat women as their lovers?" Lin Yan muttered in a low voice. If she lost her original heart, she would most likely be abandoned soon. She should find a way to be self-reliant.
