Chapter 13 The Emperor summons His Royal Highness back to the Capital
There were many people lurking around the clinic. Although Shen Jinmo was awake, he did not make any noise.
He had to wait until the head of the secret guards fell asleep before taking any action.
After the secret guard completed the handover, Sui Yi, who had been working day and night, returned to his bedroom and fell asleep due to exhaustion.
After a cup of tea, Shen Jinmo opened his eyes. The wind blew in from the window and blew out the only oil lamp in the room.
He got up from the couch, put on the black cloak placed on the inside of the bed, and quietly entered the compartment on the side.
When Aru saw Shen Jinmo appear, she retreated outside with a quilt in her arms and guarded the door.
Chen Luo raised her hand to feel Shen Jinmo's pulse, and her low voice was obscured by the cold wind: "He is recovering well. Use less internal energy in the next few days to give your bones enough time to recover."
This was the first time Shen Jinmo met the grown-up Chen Luo. Chen Luo came for him at the risk of her life, and he had no intention of drawing a line between himself and Chen Luo now.
Because Xie Nanxing needs Chen Luo, and will need her for a long time in the future: "Chen Luo, go back to Shendu immediately and protect Xie Nanxing for me."
The people from the capital arrived early with the imperial edict, and the only one who tried to shorten the time was Xie Nanxing, who had to gasp and cough after walking a few steps.
"Xiao Mo, I have to protect your safety first."
For Yu Xia Che, Shen Jinmo is the most important person, and Xie Nanxing's life or death is unimportant.
Seeing that Shen Jinmo refused, Chen Luo continued to explain: "You still have an addictive drug in your body. I have to follow you in disguise to prevent any accidents."
Shen Jinmo didn't say anything, but just stared at Chen Luo with his hawk-like eyes.
Xie Nanxing wanted to live so much. Shen Jinmo was unable to protect Xie Nanxing when he was unconscious. Now that he is awake, he naturally wants to let Xie Nanxing live.
Live until you have white hair and all your teeth fall out.
Through the thick mist in Shen Jinmo's eyes, Chen Luo caught a glimpse of genuine concern.
For someone like Shen Jinmo who lives in the dark, if he can be seen through a little, then the real concern is so heavy that it is frightening.
Chen Luo softened her attitude and gave in: "I will take Aru away tonight."
"Aunt, please do it right away. Xie Nanxing is very important to me. Please."
The man who rarely called Xia Che "uncle" bowed to Chen Luo and performed the salute of a junior.
"Humph." Chen Luo smiled lightly, revealing envy: "Do you want the antidote for the infection now, or?"
For infections, the antidote can be used once or every few months.
On the full-moon night of the 15th when there is no antidote, those who are poisoned will suffer heart-wrenching pain.
Xia Hong never disappoints anyone.
"I'll come find you later."
Pretending means being exposed, and being exposed means losing everything. For those who are already fighting a desperate battle, there is no chance of losing.
The door was pushed open silently, Shen Jinmo returned to the bed, and his breathing gradually became steady.
"Water...water..."
The sound from the side room disappeared completely. Shen Jinmo's eyes became sickly. Thin and weak words came out of his pale mouth, covering up the slight sound of his departure.
The secret guard at the door pushed open the door to confirm that Shen Jinmo was awake, and hurried to wake up Sui Yi.
Sui Yi, with a silver face, holding the imperial edict in his hand and the imperial physician behind him, knelt in front of Shen Jinmo and said, "Your subordinate Sui Yi pays respect to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
This hunter from Yunhuai Village has now become the Crown Prince in full legitimacy.
Instead of receiving the expected order to waive formalities, Sui Yi had no choice but to kneel down and hold the imperial edict high above his head: "The Emperor summons His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to return to the palace."
He half-lying down, looking at the people kneeling in the room, finally stopping at Sui Yi, and said in a sharp voice: "Are you the emperor's man?"
They fought many times, and each time he used fatal blows.
Sui Yi never thought that Shen Jinmo would actually expose his identity in front of so many people.
But he couldn't admit it, because he came with an imperial decree to show mercy.
"Your Highness has recognized the wrong person. This is the first time that I have met Your Highness."
Holding the soft whip on the small table beside the couch in his hand, Shen Jinmo straightened the whip. The air around him was filled with murderous intent as he smoothed the whip. The whip, which did not carry any internal force, attacked Sui Yi directly.
The floor cracked in an instant, sawdust passed through the back of Sui Yi's hand, and spots of blood appeared.
No pain, but panic.
"This prince is the master."
Shen Jinmo told Sui Yi bluntly that he knew who was behind this life-threatening test, and he accepted it calmly.
He did not expect any immediate reward, he just hoped that the person playing chess would see his sincerity and give him the opportunity to serve him.
Even if his master was wrong, Suiyi had to admit: "I know I was wrong."
The back-and-forth confrontation between the two left others puzzled.
But it did not prevent everyone in the room who came from Luoan from understanding that more than ten years of rural life had not concealed the dignity of the person on the bed.
This person was born to stay in Luoan, a place where wealth and power are dazzling and people are confused.
Silence gradually spread. Shen Jinmo listened to the sound of the wind by his ears and drank two cups of tea quietly.
"When I was nine years old, Her Royal Highness the Princess expelled me from the capital. I thought I would never be able to return to the capital again in this lifetime."
Shen Jinmo's explanation symbolized that a new round of negotiations had begun.
"The Emperor personally issued an imperial decree to summon His Royal Highness the Crown Prince back to the Divine Capital."
"If I go back to Luo'an, I may not survive being whipped by my mother."
Seeing this aggrieved and frightened look, if Sui Yi had not almost been whipped just now, and if Sui Yi had not fought with Shen Jinmo dozens of times and still failed to get any good results, he would have really believed it.
"Please rest assured, Your Highness. With the Emperor here, no one dares to say anything bad about you."
He said something to comfort him against his conscience, but as soon as he finished speaking, Shen Jinmo fell silent again.
To be honest, Sui Yi felt a little regretful. Even if the trip was urgent, he should have brought a eunuch to announce the imperial edict.
In this cold winter, it really doesn't feel comfortable to kneel on the ground.
It's even more unbearable than lying on a tree and being frozen into a snowman.
At least he could lie on the tree without being threatened by Shen Jinmo.
With his brows slightly furrowed, Shen Jinmo hesitated for half an hour before standing up from the bed.
He took the imperial edict in Sui Yi's hand and raised it high, knelt in the direction of Luo An and said, "Your Majesty, I, Shen Jinmo, thank you. Long live the emperor."
He stood up from the ground and dusted off his knees, then laid back down on the bed, staring at the scene in confusion.
"Why are you kneeling?" As soon as the first question was asked, another question came up: "Is it because you like kneeling?"
"You are the master, and it is my duty to kneel before you."
"If you like kneeling, then keep kneeling."
Xie Nanxing knelt all the way from the alley to the clinic. What would happen to these people if he just knelt?
Not daring to express any dissatisfaction, Sui Yi led everyone in kowtow and thanked: "Thank you, His Royal Highness, for the reward."
"Get up." Time is precious, and there is plenty of time to deal with these people: "Go to Yunhuai Village to pack your luggage tomorrow, and then set off directly back to Luoan after packing."
Shen Jinmo's words were orders and did not require discussion with others.
He was Luo An who returned with an open mind. Even to someone on the throne, his attitude would not be servile.
Shen Jinmo is the pride of Luoan. In another ten years, he will have his own pride.
"The Emperor has instructed that the Crown Prince has just recovered from a serious illness and can rest for a while before returning to the Divine Capital."
It was uncertain whether the sickly Luo An was dead or alive, and the order Sui Yi received was to delay Shen Jinmo's return to Luo An.
"This prince must return to Luoan as soon as possible to thank you."
This sentence was intimidating, forcing Sui Yi to obey: "I obey your command."
"Is Xie Nanxing okay?"
"Mr. Xie is currently being taken care of by Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Thinking of Cheng Yangqiu who unexpectedly appeared in Ping'an Town, and thinking that Shen Jinmo was not a person who could be taken lightly, Sui Yi suddenly realized that he had to win over Shen Jinmo.
"The princess is looking for a doctor who can use the seven-petal lotus. Cheng Yangqiu was once a disciple of the Medical Saint. Can he travel to Luoan to take over the job?"
Sui Yi thought that this move would not only allow him to rest easy, but also allow him to do Xie Jinmo a favor, thus achieving the best of both worlds.
Looking up at Sui Yi, Shen Jinmo smiled wickedly: "Bring Cheng Yangqiu with you when you return to Shendu, and put him down when we are almost in Luoan."
At this moment Sui Yi did not understand that the favor Shen Jinmo had done him would require him to repay it with his life in the future.
