I just want to live a good life

Imperial Doctor Yao was taking Xun Zheng's pulse, but it took him a long time, which made Mu Yunting and Lou Guang very nervous.

"How about it?"

When Doctor Yao let go of Xun Zheng, Lou Guang stepped forward and asked.

Doctor Yao quickly glanced at Mu Yunting and replied, "It's nothing serious, but Miss Xun is weak and needs to be taken care of."

"Why is she so weak? Does she have some chronic illness?"

"Probably not. I checked Miss Xun's pulse a few days ago and she was in good health. It might be because she didn't eat and rest well during this period."

"Why can't she eat well and rest well while living in the Prince's Mansion?"

Lou Guang's tone was unfriendly and filled with anger.

Imperial Doctor Yao glanced at Mu Yunting again and thought that you should ask the Crown Prince this question.

Lou Guang seemed to understand the hint from Doctor Yao's eyes and looked up at Mu Yunting.

"Your Highness, why are you so harsh on A Zheng?"

This is unfair to Mu Yunting. When Xun Zheng moved into the Prince's Mansion, he visited her every day. All the food and things she used were the best in the Prince's Mansion. How could this be considered as harsh treatment?

Mu Yunting did not answer Lou Guang's question, but turned to look at Xun Zheng's maid Baihe, who was awarded to Xun Zheng by the Queen a few days ago.

Lily was a maid who had been trained by the Queen, and she was not at all shy when she met the Crown Prince's gaze.

She bowed to Mu Yunting and said, "Your Highness, Miss Xun has not eaten well these days. It seems that the food is not to her liking. She also has not rested well. She often has nightmares and wakes up several times every night."

"Why didn't you tell the kitchen if the food wasn't to your taste?" Mu Yunting asked.

"I did, but the dishes they sent were all weird. They also said that they were all Concubine Xia's favorites, so Miss Xun should like them too."

Mu Yunting's mind immediately emerged with charcoal-grilled pig's trotters, braised chicken feet, and sauced duck necks, all of which he had never eaten before. These foods would be difficult to swallow if he didn't muster up the courage to try them once.

It cannot be said that the kitchen treated Xun Zheng harshly for making these foods for her.

So Mu Yunting automatically ignored the issue of food and continued to ask: "Why didn't you tell me about these situations earlier?"

Seeing that Mu Yunting was a little angry, Baihe quickly knelt down and replied, "I wanted to report to His Highness, but His Highness was not in the mansion during the day because of Concubine Xia's matter these days, and I couldn't get close to Lanyue Pavilion at night, so I was delayed."

"Why can't you get closer to Lanyue Pavilion?"

The person who asked the questions this time was not Mu Yunting, but Lou Guang.

Lily glanced at Mu Yunting and replied, "It was Miss Luzhu's order. She said that Your Highness was too tired and needed to rest well. She did not allow the servants to disturb him."

At this point, Mu Yunting didn't know what to say. No one deliberately treated Xun Zheng harshly, but in the end this result occurred.

What would happen if this happened to Xia Qingyan?

She would probably rush into the kitchen, roll up her sleeves and cook a delicious meal for herself.

Mu Yunting didn’t know whether she would have nightmares or not, but as long as he held her in his arms, he could fall asleep peacefully without any trouble of nightmares.

These days, it's not just Xun Zheng who has trouble eating and sleeping, he's the same.

Thinking of this, Mu Yunting's eyes became somewhat resentful.

Fortunately, Lou Guang interrupted the Crown Prince's self-pity, "A Zheng has no status in the Crown Prince's mansion and even a maid bullies her. When will Your Highness fulfill his promise to marry A Zheng?"

Mu Yunting was slightly startled when he heard this. He did promise in front of Xun Zheng's grave that he would leave his position as his principal wife to her, and this position has always been reserved for her. However, when the living person really stood in front of him, he could no longer find the feeling of having to have her when he was young.

He wanted to be true to his own heart, but he didn't want to break his promise to others, so he was caught in a dilemma.

In fact, this problem is easy to solve. The queen had mentioned to him before that she wanted the emperor to issue an edict to grant the marriage.

He didn't have to do anything but obey the order and marry Xun Zheng. However, he didn't want to do that. He could give Xun Zheng the position of Crown Princess, but he couldn't give her love. Based on his understanding of Xun Zheng, marrying her like this would be an insult.

Besides, there are some things he hasn't figured out yet, and before that he can't marry Xun Zheng.

"Your Highness?"

Lou Guang asked.

Mu Yunting said: "We will talk about this later. Let A Zheng recover first."

Lou Guang glanced at the person lying on the bed and sighed softly.

After writing the prescription, Doctor Yao left.

The task of getting the medicine naturally fell on Lou Guang's servant, but Lou Guang did not let the servant get the medicine. He stuffed the prescription into Mu Yunting's hand.

"Your Highness, please take care of your people. Lou Guang will take his leave first."

After saying this, he left with the servant.

Mu Yunting looked at the prescription in his hand and took a deep breath. He called Liefeng and asked him to prepare the carriage to take Xun Zheng back to the Prince's Mansion.

"Your Highness, I will go get Steward Ding. He will definitely be able to take good care of Miss Xun. Let's quickly reunite with Lord Ye Yin!"

This was really presumptuous. Liefeng's tongue trembled as he spoke. It was not his turn to command the Crown Prince on how to act, but he wanted to find Concubine Xia so much.

Moreover, he had just heard what Master Lou said outside the house. This Miss Xun was the one who was trying to snatch the position of the Crown Princess. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stayed with her for another quarter of an hour, it would be a threat to Concubine Xia.

Mu Yunting thought Liefeng’s suggestion was good and was about to nod when there was a whimper from the bed, and Xun Zheng opened her eyes and woke up.

"Brother Yunting, why are you here?"

Xun Zheng struggled to get up, and her body swayed as soon as she sat up.

Lily quickly stepped forward to support him.

Mu Yunting said, "You are weak and injured, don't move, let Lily do whatever you want to do."

Xun Zheng's eyes darkened, and she forced a smile and replied, "It's okay, it's just a minor injury."

"I'll have someone prepare a carriage to take you back to the Prince's Mansion."

"No need, the old house has been cleaned up almost completely and is ready for living. I will move back from today."

"You don't need to rush to move back. Come back to the Prince's Mansion with me first and take care of yourself. I'll have someone renovate this place. Also, it's not safe for you to live here alone with a maid. If you really want to move back, let me prepare some servants and guards for you first."

Xun Zheng frowned and thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

So Mu Yunting asked Liefeng to prepare the carriage, and then personally sent Xun Zheng back to the Prince's Mansion, and also ordered the kitchen to prepare some of Xun Zheng's favorite meals.

After the food came, he personally confirmed that it was normal food, then he felt relieved and prepared to leave.

Lily placed the bowl and chopsticks in front of him and said happily, "With His Highness accompanying Miss, Miss can finally eat more."

"Lily, Brother Yunting didn't say he wanted to stay, so don't make random arrangements."

Lily knew she had said something wrong, and quickly knelt down to admit her mistake to Mu Yunting, "Your Highness, I just thought that if Your Highness accompanied the young lady for dinner, the young lady would have an appetite to eat more. I am not trying to arrange anything for Your Highness. Even if I had a hundred guts, I would not dare to do such a thing."

Meeting Xun Zheng's expectant eyes, Mu Yunting couldn't bear it and decided to finish the meal with Xun Zheng before leaving.
