Chapter 1987 They've come again.
Lu Zhaoling found Lord Chen quite interesting; he always seemed to appear at just the right moment.
How can this not be considered a kind of luck?
“Who knows? Maybe he was patrolling the main street with his men to see if anyone was causing trouble during this period,” Zhou Shiyue said. “Chen Deshan is good at scheming. Who knows if he’s thinking of seizing an opportunity to make a contribution and then get a promotion.”
Zhou Shiyue found it somewhat amusing after saying it himself. It was impossible for Chen Deshan to be promoted in the short term; he and Zhou Ze had already agreed that Chen Deshan would remain in his position as Prefect of Jingzhao for the next three years.
Because this location is also very important to the capital city now.
Zhou lacked sufficient confidants and manpower, so it was best to leave the right person in the right position for the time being.
They all felt that Chen Deshan was still very suitable for this official position.
Just look at today. Chen Deshan has no official duties, yet he still patrols the city with his officers. Although his purpose is definitely to gain merit and promotion, there's nothing wrong with that.
As long as he really tries his best, that's fine.
So when Chen Deshan and his men ran over and saw that he actually had something to do, he was overjoyed.
Zhou Shiyue could tell what he was thinking at a glance.
Wow! That's brilliant! The prince is in trouble, and I've just arrived just in time; I can do good deeds again!
Zhou Shiyue immediately handed the girl over to him.
Chen Deshan had the officers lift the woman up and told him that he would take her to a clinic and would find out what had happened later.
“Lord Chen is probably just bored,” Zhou Shiyue said.
Lu Zhaoling suddenly found it somewhat amusing.
"I think Lord Chen is quite diligent, not like someone who is bored."
“I’ll leave this to Chen Deshan,” Zhou Shiyue said to Lu Zhaoling. “Just trust me that I haven’t done anything reckless.”
"I definitely believe you. If you mess around, my junior brother will send you Ghost Abyss Mist every night."
Lu Zhaoling covered her mouth and laughed.
They all thought of their wedding night, when Zhou Shiyue's passion was extinguished by the Ghost Abyss Mist.
Zhou Shiyue's face darkened.
He'll probably remember this for the rest of his life.
“I’m very scared,” he said.
Who would dare to offend their sect?
"Your Highness and Your Highness, it's time to eat," Qingbao said.
"Let's go eat first, I'm hungry."
Lu Zhaoling took Zhou Shiyue to eat, and Zhou Shiyue first drank half a cup of tea. They hadn't eaten much at noon either, and now they were hungry.
The two of them didn't say much more and focused on eating.
When they were almost finished eating, they heard some noises outside. Lu Zhaoling listened carefully and said with some surprise, "It sounds like Lord Chen's voice?"
Zhou Shiyue also heard it.
His heart sank slightly.
The only reason Lord Chen would come over at this time is because of the girl. Did he find out something, or did something unexpected happen?
"Are Your Highness and Princess still having their meal? Then I'll just wait outside and not disturb them."
Lord Chen's voice rang out from outside the dining hall, but it was clear that he had intentionally raised his voice so that they could hear him.
They even said they wouldn't disturb their meal.
Lu Zhaoling laughed, "Lord Chen must have something urgent to attend to."
"Let him in."
Zhou Shiyue couldn't eat anymore and called out to the outside in a deep voice.
Outside, Lord Chen immediately smiled at Aoki, "His Highness has asked me to go in."
Aoki, who had been blocking Lord Chen, finally stepped aside.
"Please, Lord Chen."
Lord Chen lifted the hem of his robe and entered the dining hall.
His gaze immediately fell on Lu Zhaoling's face, and a particularly bright smile instantly bloomed on his face.
"Your Highness, it's been a long time! I've missed you terribly."
“Lord Chen, we just met three days ago, didn’t we?” Lu Zhaoling couldn’t help but laugh.
"A day apart feels like three autumns, Your Highness. You have no idea how much I feel when I see you; it's as if I've been bathed in divine light, and I feel incredibly at ease..."
"Chen Deshan".
Zhou Shiyue called out to him in a low voice.
Lord Chen quickly stopped talking. Well, even the prince doesn't want others to say nice things to the princess. Really.
He changed the subject and said to Lu Zhaoling, "Your Highness, please eat, please continue eating. Don't worry about me. I'll be reporting to the Prince. You can listen while you eat. Don't go hungry."
Lu Zhaoling nodded, suppressing a laugh, "Alright, Lord Chen, please speak."
Zhou Shiyue glanced at Lord Chen—
So, he doesn't need to keep eating and can just go hungry?
However, he himself wanted Lu Zhaoling to continue eating, so he wouldn't blame Lord Chen for it.
"Speak up, didn't I tell you to go on an errand? Why did you come to the Prince's mansion again?"
Lord Chen looked at him, feeling somewhat guilty. "Your Highness, I originally took that girl to the clinic. The doctor examined her and found that she was extremely weak, with both qi and blood depleted. The injury on her forehead was also quite severe. The doctor said that there was definitely a blood clot on her forehead, and she would definitely have to leave a scar."
"Do I need to come and tell you all this?" Zhou Shiyue narrowed his eyes.
"These are unnecessary; I haven't finished speaking yet."
Lord Chen quickly sped up his speech, "The doctor said that since she is a young lady, we should ask Doctor Fu or Doctor Yang to take a look. They are skilled doctors and might be able to prevent the girl from having a scar."
"Then the little girl woke up and heard this, and said she wanted to hit Physician Tan..."
Ok?
Zhou Shiyue finally showed some interest when he heard this.
"Tan Liang?"
"Yes, it's Physician Tan Liang. This young girl said that about four or five years ago, Physician Tan went to the mountains to collect herbs and accidentally fell into a trap dug by a hunter. She was the one who saw him when she went to the mountains to collect wild herbs and saved him."
Lord Chen said, "She said that Physician Tan told her that if she ever had any difficulties in the future, she could come to the city to find him."
"She actually saved Tan Liang?" Zhou Shiyue frowned and asked, "Then why didn't she seek help from Tan Liang before?"
Tan Liang is currently the most skilled imperial physician in the Imperial Medical Bureau, and his status is still very high. Zhou Ze will likely rely on him for treatment and pulse diagnosis in the future.
If it's just a small gambling debt, Tan Liang should be able to help.
Lord Chen sighed and said, "The young girl said she didn't expect her father to run away like that, so she hadn't thought about asking Physician Tan for help. There's nothing we can do now."
"She should have said she knew Tan Liang when she was caught by those thugs."
"She said she didn't know at first that those people would be so unreasonable, and she felt that she was just helping out back then, and it wouldn't be right to bother Doctor Tan if something really happened."
"So, why are you coming to me instead of Tan Liang?" Zhou Shiyue glanced at him.
