Chapter 347 General Lu’s spoiled concubine ran away with the baby
The Crown Prince's face was gloomy, his eyes wide as bells. He gritted his teeth and said, "Mother, why are you so impatient? If they leave any evidence, none of us will be able to escape. Shouldn't they have given up on that half-dead bastard long ago? What's the point of coming to treat him now?"
The Crown Princess clutched the handkerchief tightly in her hand. For so many years, no imperial physician had been able to tell that Prince Chen was poisoned, yet this miracle doctor had diagnosed it. This meant it could be cured.
After thinking for a moment, she said, "Your Highness, don't go to Concubine Pang tonight. Go to Concubine Deng instead! Talk to her about this matter. Her father and brother are both jailers in the Heavenly Prison. Let them take action. Once this matter is settled, promote her to Concubine Liang."
Although she said so, the two of them knew in their hearts that this person would no longer exist in the mansion from now on.
The prince nodded upon hearing this and stood up. "Then cousin, please go to bed early!"
The Crown Princess just sat by the bed and waved her hand, and a dark light flashed in the Crown Prince's eyes.
……
Lu Zhihuan arrived at Prince Chen's mansion smoothly and took a look at his condition. He was much more energetic than yesterday.
Lu Zhihuan removed all the tubes from his arms, pulled out the intravenous tube on the back of his hand, and asked the Queen to press on it.
When the Queen looked at the large bruise on his arm, her eyes filled with tears.
"Mother, don't cry. Think about how I will have a healthy body in the future. What does this little bruise mean?"
"My son is right." She turned to Lu Zhihuan and said gratefully, "I will definitely remember this kindness in my heart. Your medical skills are really superb. You deserve to be called a miracle doctor." Her eyes were full of admiration.
Lu Zhihuan sorted out the medical waste and felt a little awkward when he heard the Queen's words. He could only say politely, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. I really don't deserve the title of miracle doctor."
……
At this time in the palace
Lu Xianzhi presented the evidence in his hand, "Both the witnesses and the evidence are here."
Emperor Xuan Xiao's expression was so cold it could freeze. "Today I sent the Imperial City Guards, and they really lost their composure."
He drummed his fingers on the table, looked at him and said, "You must protect Zhizhi. She... saved your cousin. I will not be stingy."
Lu Xianzhi bowed respectfully and walked out.
He personally came to Prince Chen's Mansion to pick her up. Looking at her figure from afar, he couldn't help but smile slightly.
He was marrying above his station because he could marry his Zhizhi!
……
He helped her onto the carriage and followed closely behind. The door closed, blocking out the howling north wind.
It was warm inside the carriage, and Lu Xianzhi helped her take off her fox fur coat and put it aside.
He rubbed his frozen hands and poured her half a cup of hot tea.
The movements are smooth and natural.
Lu Zhihuan reached out and touched the tip of his ear, which was red from the cold. "Have you been waiting for a long time?"
"No, don't touch it, it's cold." He pulled her hand down and asked casually, "How is my cousin?"
"The poison will be gone in a month or so. You just need to take good care of your body later." Lu Zhihuan took a sip of hot tea and raised his eyebrows. The temperature was just right. Someone was thoughtful.
"Thank you for your hard work, Madam. It's still early today. Let's go back to the Princess's Mansion to pick up Dad and the children."
Lu Zhihuan nodded. She hadn't asked about her father and children in the past two days.
Arrived at the Princess's Mansion
The front hall was bustling with activity, with everyone gathered together cutting paper-cuts.
Magpies climb onto the branches, and there will be surplus every year.
The cutting is very lifelike.
Lu Zhihuan watched with great interest, as this is an intangible cultural heritage.
The family had dinner at the princess's residence before returning to the general's residence.
Lu Zhihuan has been observing her father's expression. Why does she feel that her father is particularly happy today?
Only as long as her father is truly happy can she feel at ease.
evening
After Lu Zhihuan washed up, she sat at the table and read a medical book. Lu Xianzhi stood behind her and wiped her hair.
Speaking of the ancestral hall in the general's mansion, he had already had his mother's tablet carved and placed in the hall.
He had already told his father when he was at the princess's house tonight.
Lu Zhihuan suddenly realized that it was no wonder that his father looked so happy today.
"Thank you for being so thoughtful." She knew that her father carried her mother's tablet. In the past, her father would put it out during the New Year and let her bring the children to worship.
Lu Xianzhi leaned over and kissed her behind the ear, his hot breath warming her ears, "So what's your reward tonight, Zhizhi?" His voice was clean and gentle, with a soft breath at the end.
Lu Zhihuan turned around and kissed his thin lips, gently and tenderly.
The tip of your nose is filled with fresh aroma and the cool, cool scent of pine, both of which linger in the air.
The candlelight was dim, and uneven breathing sounds came from the room, low and deep.
After a long time, Lu Zhihuan fell into a deep sleep. Lu Xianzhi carried her back to bed and covered her with a quilt.
He put on his clothes and went to the study, opened the secret cabinet, walked in, and removed the gauze on his hand.
He pinched the wound hard, and the blood flowed out again, dripping onto the blood ginseng.
Changfeng knocked on the door and said, "General, there's movement in the prison."
Lu Xianzhi immediately wrapped the wound with gauze and tidied it up before going out.
……
On the second day in the court, the Minister of Justice knelt on his knees tremblingly and said, "Your Majesty, I have an urgent matter to report. Two prisoners in the Sky Prison died suddenly at the beginning of the first quarter of last night. Both of them committed suicide by hanging. This is a major incident. I have sent people to conduct a preliminary inspection. The prisoners died a violent death. There were no other obvious wounds on their bodies. It is true that they committed suicide by hanging." As he spoke, he took out two signed confessions from his sleeves.
The eunuch immediately presented the testimony. Emperor Xuan Xiao took a look at it and signaled the eunuch to present the testimony to Lu Xianzhi.
The eunuch trotted forward and said, "General, please take a look."
Lu Xianzhi took it and looked at it, his composure growing unsettled. He took a few steps forward, grabbed the Minister of Justice by the collar, and shouted angrily, "This is the result of your interrogation two days ago. How can you be called a miracle doctor, but in reality, he's just a facade, taking human life lightly, and coming here in anger to seek revenge?"
The surrounding officials immediately dissuaded them.
Only then did Lu Xianzhi let go.
Even though all this was a trap set by him and his uncle the emperor, he was furious that these bastards dared to slander Zhizhi like this.
The prisoner in the Tianlao was assassinated, and the emperor will definitely investigate. Now that he is dead and there is no evidence, the case will eventually be left unresolved.
next day
The emperor ordered several imperial doctors to live in Prince Chen's mansion to treat Prince Chen.
This move reassured the Crown Prince, Concubine Xian and others, who thought that this simple trick had gotten away with it.
In fact, Prince Chen has already moved into the general's mansion.
He cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry to bother you all with this."
Lu Xianzhi patted his shoulder and said, "Cousin, you are too kind."
Although His Royal Highness Prince Chen is in poor health, he is very knowledgeable and the children like to stay with him often.
---
The crackling sound of firecrackers rang out one after another, and the general's mansion was filled with joy. The princess had mentioned long ago that she and her husband would come to the general's mansion this year to stay up all night with the children.
If I let them go to the Princess's Mansion to celebrate the New Year, I'm afraid my father will feel uncomfortable. It would be better for them to come to the General's Mansion.
Lu Zhihuan and his father felt warm in their hearts.
There was a banquet in the palace during the day.
Only my father and His Royal Highness Prince Chen are left in the mansion.
