Medical Princess

Chapter 903 Hide the Treasure

Xiao Xuanzi had always known his master’s preference for Princess Chen, so how could he not know his master’s feelings? Now he was looking forward to Princess Chen coming of age and giving birth to an heir for Prince Chen’s Mansion.

His master was no longer pessimistic as he used to be, which made Xiao Xuanzi feel energetic all over no matter what he did.

His master doted on Princess Chen very much. He was never willing to see that she was unhappy, so he always allowed her to make a decision by herself. As for Princess Chen herself, Xiao Xuanzi also thought highly of her.

“She is not an ordinary person!” Xiao Xuanzi thought. Despite his master’s secret help, her own strategies were also the reason why she could grow from a little girl who had just come to the capital city from Jiangzhou to a princess. Such an outstanding husband like his master was worthy of such a smart lady.

“Princess Chen deserves the respect and love from Master.”

Shao Wanru was embroidering the sachet requested by Chu Liuchen when he came back. He said that he was going to the border, and there was no time to make new clothes for him, so the sachet had to be made.

Shao Wanru was indeed going to make several sachets for him. It was said that there were snakes and insects in Nan Jiang. She could put some medicine in the sachets to help him avoid them.

Seeing Chu Liuchen come in, Shao Wanru tilted her head and glanced at him. She asked with a smile, “He just left?”

“Yes, I bet that he went to Marquis Xing’s Mansion to make trouble!” Chu Liuchen said with a smile. When he met Shao Wanru, his smile had always been sincerely elegant and gentle.

He sat beside Shao Wanru and looked at the sachet in her hands with a bright smile. If Chu Qing saw Chu Liuchen at this time, he would think that he might have made a mistake. Chu Liuchen now was completely different from the person who looked fierce and bloodthirsty in front of Chu Qing just now.

It was so different that his soul seemed to have been changed.

“Go to make trouble?” Shao Wanru was stunned. She blinked her watery eyes and immediately understood. She raised the corners of her mouth slightly and asked, “Is it involved in Shao Jie’er?”

“Yes. Shao Jie’er was useless before, but she is different!” Chu Liuchen said casually and took the sachet in Shao Wanru’s hands.

“Hey, be careful. Your hand will be pricked...” Shao Wanru said nervously. The needle was still on the sachet.

Chu Liuchen looked at Shao Wanru with his handsome face full of grievance. As soon as she finished her words, his hand was pricked. He felt very aggrieved and said, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

“Your Highness, your move was much faster than my words!” Shao Wanru said helplessly and held his hand to check his wound. Unexpectedly, when her hand streaked across the sachet, the needle inside pricked her white and tender finger too.

Her wound was much severer than Chu Liuchen’s, and blood immediately dripped from her fingertip.

Chu Liuchen was severely scared. He threw the sachet aside and grabbed her hurt hand.

Her hand was held in his big hand. When Shao Wanru was about to tell him that she was fine, Chu Liuchen lowered his head and sucked her hurt finger. His gentleness made her blush with a full red face and look around subconsciously.

The servant girls left with flushed faces. Every time Prince Chen came, they would leave. However, they were happy for their master from the bottom of their hearts. Prince Chen truly cared for their master!

“Don’t... don’t...” Shao Wanru said with a red face.

“Look, it stops bleeding now, doesn’t it?” Chu Liuchen let go of Shao Wanru’s hand and said proudly.

She could still feel the sense of tenderness on the finger, but Shao Wanru didn’t know what to do next. She hurriedly picked up the handkerchief beside her, wrapped her finger with it, and said, “How... how can you do this...”

“Why can’t I? Your hand is injured, and I’m anxious!” Chu Liuchen said. He naturally reached out to draw Shao Wanru into his arms and she was made to sit on his lap. Then he hugged her slender waist and said with a smile, “Be careful next time. How can you be so reckless!”

Sitting in Chu Liuchen’s arms with her back tightly touching his chest, Shao Wanru blushed a lot, but she didn’t struggle anymore. It seemed that she had got used to it. However, Chu Liuchen was not a restrained man. He had to hold her in his arms to feel at ease as long as they were together alone. Therefore, Shao Wanru had to get used to his unrestrained behaviors after he did that for several days.

“You acted rashly first, Your Highness!” Shao Wanru said in a coquettish tone.

“Okay, it’s my fault. I’ll be careful next time and won’t lead to your injury again. You have to be careful next time, or I’ll be distressed!” Chu Liuchen hugged Shao Wanru hard and said with a smile.

Thinking that his wife was worried about him and even accidentally hurt her own hand just now, Chu Liuchen smiled as brightly as a flower. He had rarely seen Shao Wanru in a panic since they met. But she was in such a panic after he had been pricked by a needle! It could be seen that she indeed saw him as an important person in her heart!

What else could make him happier?

Chu Liuchen felt all tenderness in his heart when thinking that he finally had the girl who cared about him. His only pity was that she was still too young!

Then he looked at Shao Wanru’s chest with a regretful face.

“What... what are you looking at?” Shao Wanru also noticed Chu Liuchen’s strange look and immediately blushed. She pushed Chu Liuchen’s handsome face aside and said, “No peeping!”

“Okay, okay. I stop looking. What is the sense that I can’t look at my own wife, Zhuozhuo?” Chu Liuchen tilted his head with a grieved look.

Shao Wanru blushed. “Is he still the cold and gloomy Prince Chen? How can he be so unabashed?”

Seeing that Shao Wanru was too shy to raise her head, Chu Liuchen pouted with regret. He felt that it was a great pity that he could not continue now. So he could only change the topic and ask, “Do you want to go to Marquis Xing’s Mansion to see a farce?”

“Can I go?” Shao Wanru leaned against Chu Liuchen’s chest and asked when the heat on her face had faded a little. As long as Chu Liuchen didn’t talk nonsense, she could calm down.

“Of course, you can go if you want! But I’ll take you to stroll on the street first! Anyway, I didn’t have time to go shopping with you before,” Chu Liuchen said casually.

They didn’t stroll on the street after they paid the first visit to her parent’s home because of the bad weather.

“That’s great. Let’s go!” Shao Wanru got off Chu Liuchen’s lap and said happily, “Let’s go to my shop first!”

She had planned to visit Madame Dong, who had sent a letter saying that she needed to talk with Shao Wanru.

All the embroidery had been sorted out and all the embroiderers had left a few days before her wedding. It was just the day before her wedding when she received Madame Dong’s message, so she didn’t have time to deal with it. Now it had been a few days, but she didn’t meet Madame Dong when she went back to Marquis Xing’s Mansion yesterday. Shao Wanru was a little anxious now.

Regardless of the fact that Shao Wanru was busy that day, Madame Dong insisted on sending a letter to her. So there must be something urgent.

“Well, Zhuozhuo, you are not willing to recite poems in our mansion with me,” Chu Liuchen stood up with a grieved and depressed face and patted the dust off his robe.

“Let’s go. I’ll do that with you when we are back!” Shao Wanru made fun of him and pulled his robe, but her reaching hand was caught by him.

“Okay! I’ll wait for the moment after we come back!” Chu Liuchen held her soft hand with satisfaction, and then walked to the door and asked Xiao Xuanzi to arrange the carriage.

Shao Wanru went out of the inner room after she changed clothes with the help of Yujie and Qu Le. Chu Liuchen, who was sitting in the outer room and drinking tea, looked Shao Wanru up and down and suddenly said, “The clothes are not good-looking. Get changed!”

“Which one is not good? I think they are good-looking!” Shao Wanru tidied up her dress and asked in surprise. It was a dress with eight patterns of dancing butterflies in frozen white. She couldn’t see what was bad about it.

“You’ve just got married. How can you dress so plainly?” Chu Liuchen said in an indubitable voice. Then he waved his hand and said, “Change it!”

“That makes sense.” After thinking for a while, Shao Wanru went into the inner room with the two servant girls to change her clothes. When she came out again, she was in a red brocade dress.

The bright red matched her status as a newly married woman very much. The red dress in the shape of a peacock with long tails made her waist look slenderer. Chu Liuchen raised his head and looked at Shao Wanru’s enchanted eyes. He found that her face with a healthy complexion looked even more lively and charming when she was in red. And she looked both pure and charming. Anyone would fall in love with her once catching sight of her now.

What’s more, such bright red was very in line with Shao Wanru’s temperament. She was both pure and attractive in others’ eyes now, which was different from what she had been—most of the time she looked very elegant.

Chu Liuchen suddenly felt uneasy and waved his hand. “Change it back! The former one looks better!”

His unhappy face amused Shao Wanru. She went to change her clothes again. Looking at Shao Wanru dressed in the last set of clothes, Chu Liuchen suddenly felt that it was better. At least it looked elegant and could abate Shao Wanru’s innate charm. He wanted to hide her delicacy and beauty from others.

After thinking for a while, he ordered Xiao Xuanzi again, “Get a curtain hat!”

“Yes, master!” Xiao Xuanzi ran away happily. “Look, Master is jealous!”

“It’s better to be elegant and I happen to like elegant clothes. This outfit is not bad!” Chu Liuchen said seriously. Then he thought of her charming look he had just seen and suddenly leaned over to whisper in Shao Wanru’s ear, “However, you can consider wearing bright red underwear in the future!”

Chu Liuchen thought that his wife must look gorgeous with her snow-white skin matched with bright red. He could see her in red but others couldn’t!

Shao Wanru was confused at first, but she came to her senses once she saw his look. She pinched his hand hard, indicating that he should not talk nonsense.

Chu Liuchen naturally held Shao Wanru’s hand and went out with her.

The carriage was prepared. Chu Liuchen helped Shao Wanru get on the carriage first, and then he got it too. After giving the coachman an order, the carriage was driven out of the gate of Prince Chen’s Mansion and they headed for Butterfly Clothing Shop...
