On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Carrying three carts full of new year's goods, the eldest lady and Yan Ruyu rode in a carriage to Sima's house.

Huo Changhe and Ma Liyu followed the team on horseback.

Ma Liyu was filled with joy: "Your Majesty, thank you very much."

If Huo Changhe hadn't come, the Sima family would have had another miserable year.

It is unimaginable to have such rich New Year goods.

Huo Changhe held the reins: "Thank you for what? It's just a courtesy during the New Year."

Ma Liyu pursed his lips hard, and Huo Changhe added: "The medicine the old lady gave to the princess last time was so precious. Let alone this little thing, even ten times it is not enough to repay her in case of emergency."

Ma Liyu's heart felt hot. Huo Changhe said this just because he didn't want to put a psychological burden on the Sima family.

He said no more, but secretly swore in his heart that he would be loyal to the prince and princess.

As he was walking forward, a carriage caught up with him.

The curtain of the car was lifted, revealing the mixed face of Governor Cao.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

Huo Changhe turned around and saw that it was him. He reined in the reins and waited for his carriage to arrive.

As Governor Cao was about to get out of the car, Huo Changhe said, "Sir, you don't have to be polite, just say so."

Governor Cao took a look at the carriage in front and guessed that Yan Ruyu was inside. Huo Changhe could not talk to him for a long time.

"Your Majesty, I am lowering my rank..."

For a moment, I didn’t even know where to start.

Huo Changhe wondered: "What important matters do you have, sir?"

Governor Cao thought about it and realized that it was indeed not important. It was the first time he heard about such a thing, and he felt suspicious and a little scared, so he wanted to talk to Huo Changhe.

But this is obviously not the right time.

"No, I just think..." He changed the subject, "Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. It's the first time for the prince to celebrate the New Year here. Is there anything you need to do?"

"Thank you for your concern, sir. Everything is fine with us and we don't lack anything."

Huo Changhe held his hands in the carriage and said, "I wish you a happy new year in advance."

Governor Cao quickly returned the greeting: "I wish the prince and princess all the best."

Huo Changhe glanced at the carriage in front of him: "If everything is okay, sir, I will go ahead and talk later."

"Okay, okay, my lord, please go slowly."

As Governor Cao watched Huo Changhe speed up to catch up, his tense body relaxed again, his smile faded, leaving only worry.

The master who was following the carriage asked in a low voice: "Sir, since the prince asked about it, why didn't you say it just now?"

"Didn't you listen to what the prince said? Ask me if there is anything important. The princess must be in the carriage in front. They may be going somewhere to do something. How can I stop the prince from talking about these things?"

"Not only will it not be solved by then, the prince will secretly accuse me of being ignorant."

Governor Cao sighed: "After what happened that night, I finally figured out that the prince is much stronger than Shen Huaixin, not only in terms of strength, but also in character. I want to have a good relationship with the prince."

"Other things..." He thought for a moment, "You go back and do the math. If it doesn't work, each family should pay some money."

"Yes."

"It's not a big deal, it's just strange. It makes me anxious. I'll talk to the prince after the New Year. By the way, prepare some New Year's gifts. I'll go to the prince's palace to pay New Year's greetings."

"Yes, sir, don't worry, I will take care of it."

The small courtyard of the Sima family is already lively. Although the life is poor, they have a strong cohesion. When they have nothing to do these days, they come to the old lady's house, clean the yard, write couplets, and paste blessing characters, all by themselves. .

Some of them went to Qian's shop a while ago to work. The shopkeepers were very kind and righteous. Although they had not been there for a long time, they all gave them bonuses and New Year's gifts.

Rice, noodles, meat and fish are all must-have items for the Chinese New Year.

Mrs. Sima also wrote a couplet herself. Looking at the smiling faces of young and old in and outside the courtyard, she felt warm in her heart.

"Thanks to Zhennan Prince's Mansion, today is possible," the old lady said to her eldest son Sima Yong, "It would be better if your father was here."

Sima Yong's wound has almost grown, but it is still a little itchy and needs to be avoided for a few more days.

Every time I see the scar on my stomach, I feel extremely surprised.

It is really unimaginable that diseases can be treated in this way, the stomach can be opened, a section of intestine can be taken out, and it can be sewn back again.

If he hadn't experienced it himself, he wouldn't believe anything he said.

But even though I have experienced it, I still can't remember the scene at that time, and I feel extremely regretful. I wish I could be sober.

"Mom, my father has a spirit in heaven. He will know and be happy for us."

Mrs. Sima nodded: "Okay, you are absolutely right. Now that our family is together, life will get better and better, which is not bad."

Sima Yong paused for a moment and whispered: "Mother, there has been no news from the capital for a long time. After this time, my son feels that mother is right. It is a good thing for our family to live together and live in peace."

Mrs. Sima lowered her eyes and laughed softly: "Yes, back then your father was only thinking about redressing the injustice and returning to Beijing, and arranged so many things."

"He may not have thought that over time, people's hearts will change. If our family is in such a situation, it would be good if others don't add insult to injury. A few of them will remain the same."

"That's all. If there's no news from the capital, there won't be any news. It'll gradually stop... that's fine."

Just as he finished speaking, there was the sound of footsteps outside, and Sima Yong's son rushed in excitedly.

"Father, grandmother! The prince, princess, and the eldest lady are here."

Mrs. Sima quickly stood up: "Where is he? Quick, I will go and greet him."

"There are still some things outside the door. The car is parked at the intersection. The prince asked us to move out. Grandma and grandson came to ask what you mean."

The sun was setting in the west, and the afterglow was like gold. It was projected gently from the window and sprinkled all over the table.

The old lady sighed with emotion: "They chose this time to come here just because they don't want to be too conspicuous. They do it for our consideration. People's hearts are at this point. If we continue to refuse good intentions, we will be ignorant."

"The dignity of the Sima family is not based on this false sense of dignity. Send the order and open the door to greet you. The young man will go out to move things. Thank you all later."

"Yes!"

The old lady straightened her clothes and hair, turned around and went out, and Sima Yong also got out of bed.

"Mother, son, let's go together."

"Can you do it? Can your body hold up?"

"Yes, it's okay. The wound has healed. I'll walk slower so it won't be in the way. The princess and the prince will be happy to see me."

Old Man Sima nodded: "That's right. Living well is the greatest gratitude to the princess."

"In that case, let's go, mother and son, we will go together."

Before Yan Ruyu reached the door of Sima's house, the door opened and several young people walked out surrounded by Mrs. Sima and Sima Yong.

Yan Ruyu looked surprised when she saw Sima Yong.

"Uncle, has your health recovered?"

Sima Yong stepped forward to greet him: "Sima Yong, thank you so much for your life-saving grace, Princess!"

Huo Changhe stepped forward to help him up. Just as Yan Ruyu was about to speak, the scene in front of him changed and his body froze.
