On Our Wedding Night, I Discovered the Crown Prince's Hidden Illness-Chapter 177 - : To Linqing Pavilion

Chapter 177: Chapter 177: To Linqing Pavilion

Chun Liu advised, “Pavilion Master, it’s still a good half day’s journey to Linqing Pavilion. These past days, you’ve been riding hard without pause, even if you’re in a hurry to reach the border, you should still take a short rest.”

Xia Tao agreed, “Yes, Pavilion Master, it’s almost time for lunch. You can eat in the Pavilion, then take a midday break, and there will still be plenty of time to set off.”

Miao Zhu rubbed her arm, which was sore from days of horse riding and pulling on the reins.

Seeing this, Leng Yu Yan nodded, “Then I’ll listen to you.”

With the Pavilion Master’s consent, Chun Liu and Xia Tao quickly went to prepare the meal.

They would also make some pastries for the Pavilion Master and Miao Zhu to eat on the road.

Elsewhere.

Ye Yiheng and his party took the water route.

The boat moved at its fastest pace, and everyone thought the Crown Prince was doing this to find Leng Yu Yan.

Yet no one dared to mention this matter.

Ye Yiheng was usually a man of few words, and since leaving Jiangzhou, he had become even more silent on the boat.

Song Guo was filled with worry, fearing his master had fallen ill from lovesickness.

They say lovesickness isn’t a disease, yet it can take a life.

Thinking this, Song Guo pulled Jian Lecheng, Mo Chen, Liu Yun, and Yin Shuang aside for a quiet discussion.

“Do you think His Highness has fallen ill with longing?” Song Guo first looked to Jian Lecheng.

Jian Lecheng laughed self-deprecatingly, “His Highness has been bitten by a woman before, and so has Mo Chen, but I’ve had no such experience. You should ask Mo Chen about this.”

Song Guo nodded and turned his gaze to Mo Chen.

Mo Chen chuckled, “What a joke, I was bitten by that madwoman Miao Zhu, how could I long for her? Am I sick?”

At these words, Song Guo, Jian Lecheng, and Mo Chen all looked at Liu Yun and Yin Shuang in unison.

“You are women, you should understand women the best,” Song Guo pondered briefly, then asked, “Does Lady Yu Yan truly have the Crown Prince in her heart?”

Liu Yun and Yin Shuang exchanged glances; they hadn’t had much contact with Leng Yu Yan, what could they say?

While they were contemplating, Mo Chen laughed heartily, “Are these two really women?”

“Their skin is so tough, if you arm-wrestle with them, they could snap a person’s bones.”

“When Lady Yu Yan’s wrist was grasped by His Highness, her skin flushed red; their skins are likely so tough that not even a horse carriage rolling over them would cause a blush.”

Mo Chen was only concerned with his own joviality, completely unaware of the increasingly stern expressions on Liu Yun and Yin Shuang’s faces.

Just as Mo Chen finished speaking, they stood up and offered Mo Chen a deluge of affectionate ‘consolation’ with their fists and feet.

Jian Lecheng and Song Guo watched with furrowed brows and pained expressions, thankful they hadn’t been the ones to utter those words.

They didn’t get punched themselves, but even hearing the sounds was inexplicably painful.

Song Guo experienced for the first time the benefits of being a little eunuch.

The conversations and noises from the room reached Ye Yiheng’s ears.

He walked over slowly and knocked on the door, his voice flat and unrippled, “This pace is solely to return to the capital.”

Not to look for her.

Hearing the Crown Prince’s voice, Song Guo hurriedly opened the door, Liu Yun and Yin Shuang ceased their pugilism, and together with the others, they stood up and greeted, “Your Highness.”

Ye Yiheng glanced over them and said indifferently, “She gets seasick, she wouldn’t take the water route.”

A more expedient option than the water route was on horseback.

During the Imperial College’s trials that day, he’d watched her riding, her posture agile and spirited. If his guess was correct, she would have chosen to ride.

Leaving Mrs. Zhao behind could serve to delay time and allowed for the fastest departure from Jiangzhou…

Away from him.

The others in the room came to a realization.

Jian Lecheng exclaimed, “We’ve been foolish, how did we not think of that?”

In the current conditions of Jiangnan, the water levels were slowly receding, roads gradually clearing up for passage.

Under such circumstances, she definitely wouldn’t choose to take a boat, not to mention the uncontrollable pace, she also had to cater to the boatman’s mood.

Song Guo mustered his courage and asked, “Your Highness, shall we go look for Lady Yu Yan?”

Jian Lecheng pulled him back, “With Tiancheng so vast, do you know where she has gone?”

The group fell silent.

It was then that Ye Yiheng’s crisp voice sounded, “I probably know where she has gone.”

“Your Highness, then let’s pursue her,” Song Guo exclaimed loudly.

It seemed that the Crown Prince’s and Lady Yu Yan’s past as an unfulfilled betrothed couple was not for naught, as he could deduce her thoughts with such clarity.

As Song Guo and the others excitedly waited for the Crown Prince’s response, Ye Yiheng gave them a faint glance and, without a word, directly left the doorway.

Didn’t he have any pride?

That woman had already fled from his side for the second time.

Seeing the Crown Prince walk away, Liu Yun and Yin Shuang continued their “warm reception” of Mo Chen.

Mo Chen, holding his head, glanced unintentionally out the window and shouted, “Enough already, stop hitting me!”

Liu Yun and Yin Shuang stopped their hands.

Mo Chen pushed them away and yelled loudly, “We have arrived at Linqing Pavilion’s territory!”

Ye Yiheng stood on the deck, gazing into the distance.

He heard what Mo Chen said.

Now that it was April, his eyes were met with layers of green mountains, with clouds curling around them, this place was indeed beautiful.

No wonder the Divine Doctor had chosen this place for the Linqing Pavilion.

Mo Chen ran toward the cabin, “Since we’re passing by, let’s go take a look at Linqing Pavilion.”

Jian Lecheng also hurried out, “Indeed, if someday we should attack Linqing Pavilion, we should take this opportunity to scout it out.”

Suddenly, an idea flashed across Ye Yiheng’s mind, did she despise him for his blindness and weakness?

With this thought, he should attend even more to his eye disease and cold disease.

Having thought this through, he said in a deep voice, “Go to Linqing Pavilion.”

Upon hearing this, everyone was extremely excited.

Even though according to Ruofeng’s previous message, the Divine Doctor was currently at the Southern Border, getting a close look at Linqing Pavilion might result in the Crown Prince’s eye disease and cold disease receiving treatment from other skilled members within.

In the capital city, at the Prince Liang Mansion.

After Lai Manting’s miscarriage, according to Mrs. Feng’s recommendation, she was also advised to observe a month of confinement.

This was so her body could recover and be ready to conceive again soon.

Regarding this, Lai Manting had her doubts, as throughout these days, she had seen Prince Liang only a handful of times.

The more uncertain she felt, the more irritable she became, smashing many objects, but still unable to relieve her anger.

Jinju advised softly at her side, “Consort, Prince Liang must surely be considerate of your health, that’s why he hasn’t come.”

Lai Manting let out a cold laugh, then ordered, “You go invite him here, tell him I am not feeling well.”

Thirty minutes later, Jinju returned alone.

Seeing her come back by herself, Lai Manting scolded angrily, “Can’t you even invite someone properly? What use do I have for you?”

Jinju trembled and replied, “Prince Liang said if Consort is not feeling well, she should rest properly, and not think about anything else.”

Upon hearing this, Lai Manting felt that the scars on her face had certainly made Prince Liang grow averse to her.

But the Scar Removal Ointment given by the Imperial Physician was ineffective, and due to her confinement, she couldn’t leave the Prince Mansion.

Lai Manting took a deep breath, forced herself to calm down, and said to Jinju, “Return to the Leng Family and ask my mother to find the Wu Family father and son. No matter what, they must come up with some potent Scar Removal Ointment to eliminate the scars on my face!”

Jinju respectfully acknowledged the order.

Ye Yiheng’s boat sailed towards Linqing Pavilion’s territory.

En route, they saw a dust-covered young man by the riverside, drinking water and washing his face. Mo Chen, rubbing his head that still ached from Liu Yun and Yin Shuang’s beating, waved his arm and called out loudly, “Ruofeng, Ruofeng.”
