Chapter 247 Brother Jun

After saying that, he tried to feed Pei Yuanjun the medicine, but Pei Yuanjun snatched the bowl away from him!

A few drops landed on Princess Mingzhu's hand, immediately causing several blisters!
Lou Mingzhu gasped and covered her hand!

Physician Fang immediately stepped forward: "Princess, I have some burn ointment here. You can take it and have a maid apply it for you!"

At this moment, Pei Yuanjun coldly said, "Princess, you are of noble birth and have never done such rough work before. Look, you got burned by accident. You should drink it yourself, Yuanjun!"

After saying that, he blew on the medicine in the bowl and drank it all in one gulp!

But then she discovered that the medicine was actually sweet, and she glanced at Qi Yunran in surprise! She then calmly looked away!

Qi Yunran secretly winked at him!

Seeing Lou Chen looking over, he pretended to be sad and looked at Pei Yuanjun!
It was as if he was really about to disappear!
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is really not in a good position to travel at this time. If he insists on returning to the capital, the journey will likely be too bumpy and may worsen his condition!"

Lou Chen's eyes flashed with displeasure: "So, Prime Minister, are you just going to stay here and not return to the capital?"

"Once the injury heals, you can return to Beijing!"

"Then give me a deadline. The Prime Minister is a pillar of the nation; I cannot rest easy until I see him return to the capital!"

"That... depends on the Prime Minister's recovery!"

"Then you should heal the Prime Minister as soon as possible. If he needs any precious medicinal herbs, go and ask Physician Wen for them!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After saying this, Lou Chen once again told Pei Yuanjun to rest well, then turned and left!

After Lou Chen left, Pei Yuanjun immediately dismissed Lou Mingzhu, saying, "Princess Mingzhu, I need to rest now. Please leave!"

Lou Mingzhu bit her lip unwillingly, then raised her head with suppressed anger after a moment: "Then, Brother Jun, take good care of your injuries. I'll go down now! I'll come see you again tomorrow!"

She turned around and grabbed Qi Yunran's hand again: "Sister Yunran, you must take good care of Brother Jun. I will come to see him again tomorrow!" Before Qi Yunran could say anything, she let go of her hand and ran out!

Doctor Fang smiled and walked out, closing the door behind him!

Only Qi Yunran and Pei Yuanjun remained in the room!
Qi Yunran imitated Lou Mingzhu's innocent and aggrieved voice: "Brother Jun... Brother Jun..."

Pei Yuanjun stood up and hugged Qi Yunran in his arms!
"My wife, you know?"

"what do you know?"

"I……"

"Was it something you faked about being sick? Why?"

Pei Yuanjun held Qi Yunran tightly in his arms and said coldly, "Because I suspect that some things are related to the Emperor. As the saying goes, serving the Emperor is like serving a tiger. You never know when you will become the Emperor's favorite minister and be the one he deals with."

Since you don't want to go to the capital, I've thought about it and living here with you isn't so bad!

Qi Yunran looked at him in surprise. "You've been living here all this time? You don't even want to be the Prime Minister anymore?"
"So you suspect that your injury was intentional on the Emperor's part?"

"It's not about that? I'll tell you later after I've found out, okay?"

"Oh! By the way, what happened to your injuries?"

Qi Yunran unconsciously touched Pei Yuanjun's uneven chest!

Pei Yuanjun was relieved to see that Qi Yunran had finally asked him about the wound on his chest. He had been waiting for her to ask him personally for a long time!
Finally, he could explain to her that he hadn't intentionally lost her! Although she wouldn't understand his despair at the time, he still wanted to explain it to her!

He held her in his arms and kissed her gently before speaking, "My wife, although I went to the capital to take the imperial examination, I also brought my master's letter of recommendation with me! My master was secretly supporting the emperor, who was still a prince at the time!"
My trip to the capital for the imperial examination was merely a pretext. No matter what, I would stay in the capital to help the Emperor ascend the throne smoothly! Fortunately, I passed with top honors and was personally summoned by the Emperor to be named the Zhuangyuan (状元, the top scholar)!
