My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage
Chapter 223 - 224: Enter the Palace Immediately

Chapter 223: Chapter 224: Enter the Palace Immediately

Yang Shu hurried to the War King Residence, fearing Chu Nanli would bring trouble to the residence, and she arrived quite out of breath.

"What happened to the consort mother?" Ye Yunting frowned slightly.

He rarely saw his mother lose her composure like this.

"Do you know what Chu Nanli has gone to do?" Yang Shu asked urgently.

She guessed that Ye Yunting must not know about Chu Nanli going to the palace to treat the disease, otherwise he would not have allowed her to do as she pleased.

Ye Yunting’s frown deepened.

He had only seen Chu Nanli and Zhuang Muyan get into a carriage.

Could it be that the two of them, behind his back, had engaged in some shameful conduct?

Ye Yunting’s expression grew darker and darker, "Go ahead and speak, Consort Mother."

Yang Shu took a deep breath and said, "She insists that she can cure smallpox, and right now she is treating Consort Jade! You must know, smallpox is an ancient contagious disease! How can Chu Nanli possibly cure it! Don’t let her worsen Consort Jade’s condition and implicate the Prince Residence!"

"Yes, how could my sister possess such great medical skills?"

Lin Fuying had just been about to enter when she heard these words and so she smiled and agreed, "Prince, you should go to the palace and see for yourself, sister. Smallpox is not easy to cure, and we don’t want her to make a mess."

Ye Yunting kept a stern face, nodded, and prepared to leave with big steps.

"Yunting brother, Yingying is worried about sister, let Yingying come with you," Lin Fuying spoke softly.

Normally, she as a concubine should avoid such situations.

But she was eager to see Chu Nanli stumble into trouble.

Ye Yunting paused in his steps, turned back to glance at Lin Fuying, and nodded.

"Hm, go and call Bai Wuheng," Ye Yunting said indifferently.

"Alright, with Brother Bai there, sister wouldn’t likely cause any serious trouble," Lin Fuying said understandingly, although her fingertips nearly pierced her palm.

Ye Yunting asking her to call Bai Wuheng was to intervene and help Chu Nanli.

It seemed the Prince was still concerned about Chu Nanli.

Thinking this, Lin Fuying clenched her teeth tightly as she arrived at Bai Wuheng’s courtyard.

"Brother Wuhen, could you help with something?" Lin Fuying began softly, recounting Chu Nanli’s actions, naturally exaggerating the details.

Upon hearing this, Bai Wuheng’s expression instantly turned extremely grave.

"What, this is simply outrageous!"

He had been sitting, but abruptly stood up and said to the servant boy beside him, "Prepare the horses, we must go to the palace immediately! If she ends up killing Consort Jade with her treatment, none of us could bear the consequences!"

At first, Lin Fuying thought Bai Wuheng also cared for Chu Nanli, but the last part made her realize he just didn’t want to bear the responsibility.

Probably, Ye Yunting was also anxious about Chu Nanli for the same reason.

In the end, Ye Yunting, Lin Fuying, and Bai Wuheng, all three rode together in the same carriage to the palace.

The guards at the gate recognized Ye Yunting and did not obstruct them.

The carriage proceeded without hindrance, quickly reaching Consort Jade’s location.

By now, Chu Nanli had completed the last steps of the treatment; Consort Jade’s fever had subsided, and the red spots had diminished significantly, indicating initial treatment success.

She wiped off her sweat, feeling hungry.

"Master, I specially brought these pastries for you from the imperial kitchen. Please have some to fill your stomach," Zhuang Muyan said nearby.

He had been beside her this time, learning from Chu Nanli how to treat the disease, but was sent out.

Zhuang Muyan pushed the food box forward, and only then did Chu Nanli notice he was holding a food box.

Once the food box was opened, inside were various delicate pastries, so pretty that Chu Nanli hardly wanted to eat them.
