“Although the Gu family was the richest in the Ming Dynasty back then, their foundation was still a little shallow, so they shouldn’t have this much antique calligraphy and painting.
“On the contrary, they had no lack of jewelry.
“Therefore, the jewelry and gold bars here might mostly belong to the Gu family.”
After returning to the residence, Zhou Huaiming saw that King Rui’s face was frighteningly pale. He immediately had someone carry King Rui into his own study in the front courtyard, while Doctor He immediately examined King Rui’s wound.
After the examination, Doctor He heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Fortunately, Lord Gu stitched up all the wounds previously. Although they split open, it’s not a big deal. After changing the bandages and resting for two days, he’ll be fine.”
“That’s good. But why does his face look so pale?”
“First, he lost too much blood and injured his vitality.
“Besides, to put it bluntly, it’s the discomfort caused by the long journey. He just needed to nourish himself more.” After Doctor He finished speaking, he started changing the bandages.
“Alright. You’ve been busy all night. Go back and rest early; leave this to me.”
“Okay, I will take my leave then.” Doctor He nodded, picked up his first-aid kit, and walked out.
Butler Feng rushed in as soon as he left while putting on his clothes. He glanced at King Rui, whose eyes were closed, and then looked at Zhou Huaiming and asked, “Young Master, how is His Highness’ injury?”
“He’s fine, but he’s tired from the journey. Let him have a good rest.” Zhou Huaiming explained and brought Butlet Feng out of the bedroom. “Has anyone been causing trouble in the residence recently?”
“Ever since I accompanied the Princess Consort to the Emperor to complain, things have been relatively stable.”
“Good. We’ll talk about the rest tomorrow.”
“Do we need to call the Princess Consort and the others to accompany His Highness?”
Zhou Huaiming shook his head and yawned. “No need. We’ll talk about it tomorrow morning.”
“Alright, then this old servant will return to bed now.”
In the blink of an eye, the sky was bright. Sun Miaoke and Gu Wanning also received news that King Rui had returned to the residence in the middle of the night and was seriously injured.
After breakfast, Gu Wanning used a clay pot to simmer a pot of millet, red dates, and red bean porridge.
She packed up lunchboxes and went to the main courtyard. After that, she went to the front courtyard with Sun Miaoke.
Zhou Huaiming had just finished washing up and was about to send someone to the kitchen to get food. When he heard them coming in, he immediately stood up and went out to welcome them. “Good morning, sisters-in-law.” “Good morning, cousin. It must have been hard on you last night. How is His Highness? Is he awake?” Sun Miaoke asked.
“I just woke up. You guys can go in. I’m going to the kitchen to find something to eat.” Zhou Huaiming yawned and walked out.
Sun Miaoke walked into the bedroom with Gu Wanning.
Just as King Rui was about to get up, Gu Wanning immediately placed the lunchboxes on the bedside table and helped him up. “Your Highness, are you getting off the bed or…?”
“I’ve been lying down for too long. I would like to sit up.”
Gu Wanning immediately placed the pillow and blanket behind him and asked, “Your Highness, is it suitable?”
“It’s good.” King Rui nodded.
“You must be hungry. It just so happens that Sister Gu has made some millet porridge.
“I’ve also asked the kitchen to prepare ginseng chicken soup for you for lunch later.” Sun Miaoke sat on a stool beside the bed and said.
When Gu Wanning heard that, she immediately scooped up a bowl of porridge. After mixing a little, she sat by the bed and said, “Let me feed you.”
“No need. Although I’m injured, I can still eat myself.” King Rui took the bowl and lowered his head to eat..
