alyzed anything! I've made it so clear, this is clearly a frame-up, don't you know that Are you kidding me! For the sake of pleasing Murong Yue, you left me in the Prime Minister's Mansion!Chen Zixuan...Chapter Thirty-Seven

Here it is... (Continued)

Ke'er obediently nodded, leading Chen Zixuan towards her courtyard. She turned back every three steps, gazing deeply at the Sixth Prince standing outside the door...

Six Wangye...Although you don't remember me, I've always remembered you...I've always looked forward to formally meeting you...But...Will I never have a chance Will today be the day we say goodbye forever and become strangers

Looking at the scene before him, Chen Zixuan's mouth could fit a whole egg.

"Ke'er, this is... your... home"

"Yes, Master Chen. My mother is inside...Master please..." Ke'er went inside first.

Chen Zi-xuan looked at the scene before her, and for a moment she felt like she was back two years ago when she went to teach in a poor and backward mountain area. The living conditions there were bad, but this place was even worse...

Chen Zixuan couldn't imagine how Ke'er, at such a young and beautiful age, the age when people are most obsessed with appearances and comparison, could possibly live in such an environment...

Chen Zixuan and twenty-nine also walked in.

A long wooden plank was laid across the stone bed, covered with a thin layer of cotton blanket. Ca'er's mother lay inside these worn and slightly musty blankets. She was very thin, her whole face pale and sallow, clearly showing signs of long-term malnutrition and illness.

Next to the "bed" where Ke'er was lying was a simple stove made of stones and earth. It was about thirty centimeters high, with a broken jar on top containing some residue, probably medicine scraps. There were also several small bottles on the ground beside it, which likely contained medicine as well.

Chen Zixuan didn't know how to describe her current feelings. She was shocked by the scene before her. She had thought that Ke'er would have a harder life in the Prime Minister's mansion, but she never imagined it would be this bad.

This house doesn't get any sunlight, and to top it off, the roof leaks. It can't even provide basic shelter from wind and rain.

At this moment, Chen Zixuan's heart was filled with hatred for the Chancellor. Since you have already taken Ca'er's mother, you should have the obligation and responsibility towards her. How can you allow her and her daughter to live such a life Ca'er is your biological daughter! Her birth, her honor and disgrace, shouldn't they be closely tied to yours

You let these women, mother and daughter, live in such a place Is this not slapping the face of the Prime Minister's residence For you to be the Prime Minister yet so heartless is truly despicable!

"Mother... Mother... Ke'er is back, mother... Look, these are Ke'er's benefactors. They helped Ke'er recover her silver today and will even take you to see a doctor... Mother... I'll support you... Go slowly..." Ke'er supported her mother.

"Old lady, you don't need to get up, just lie down…" Chen Zixuan immediately went over to help her when he saw this.

"My dear maiden, with a kind heart, please accept this old woman's bow..."

"No, no, mother. I didn't expect any reward for helping you, please don't thank me, really..." Chen Zixuan felt a heavy weight in his heart, making it hard to breathe.

"Girl, look at our humble place, we don't even have a seat for you. We're so sorry..." Ke'er's mother pulled Chen Zixuan's hand.

"It's alright, it's alright. Mother, are you feeling a bit feverish I think your hand is very hot. Would you mind if I touch your forehead..." Chen Zixuan said as he tried to reach out and touch her forehead.

"No, no, no, old woman, you're dirty, don't soil the girl's hands, they are so clean..."

"It's alright, don't mind me. I'm not a doctor, but I have some family remedies that might help." Chen Zixuan touched Ke'er Niang's forehead, then his own, and finally Ke'er's, confirming that Ke'er Niang had a fever, and a serious one at that.

Luckily, she had the bag Yun Jie gave her with her. She also discovered that the bag Yun Jie gave her had a button. Pressing the button would transform the bag into a small satchel with many compartments and could be worn diagonally. Before leaving home, Chen Zixuan purposely put some essential items and medicine in the bag.

"Family recipe That must be quite valuable, miss. An old woman like me is at the end of her days anyway, so don't bother your pretty head over it. I know my own body well enough..."

"Mother, you shouldn't be so polite to me. Ke'er and I are fated to meet, and I quite like her. Since I came to see you today without bringing a gift, this medicine will have to do as one..." Chen Zixuan shoved a fever-reducing pill into Ke'er's mother's hand.

"Then the old woman took it, Ca'er, put it away for me."

"Mother…"

"Mother, what are you putting away! You're so sick, this medicine has to be taken now for it to work. Child, where is the water I'll feed your mother the medicine."

"No, my girl, I know your kindness. But the old woman knows her days are numbered. This good medicine would be wasted on me; it's better to give it to Ke'er. Ke'er is injured and weak. Our lives in this house aren't easy, who knows what the future holds..." The old woman spoke, choked with emotion...

"Mother..." Ke'er hugged her mother, silently shedding tears...

"Alright then, we'll take you out of the house for treatment right now. Twenty-Nine, carry your mother on your back, and let's go find Master Yuanshen."

"With all due respect, the Divine Doctor only treats the Prince of the Fifth Royal Manor. He does not treat anyone else, not even the Emperor. Even when treating the Emperor, he needs the Prince's approval before entering the palace to diagnose him..."

He's felt my pulse before, hasn't he I'm not the Fifth Prince.

“This… must be a special permission from the King.”

“Then you should bring Ca’er’s mother to the palace first, and I'll go ask Ruitianling. What do you mean by being so dumb even when it matters You never think on your feet! This is a matter of saving lives, and I believe Ruitianling will definitely help.” Chen Zixuan said as he was going to help Ca’er’s mother.

Twenty-nine stood there: “Miss, the King won’t make a move...”

Twenty-nine stood there like a statue, motionless. No matter how Chen Zixuan pushed, he wouldn't budge.

"Why" Chen Zixuan felt a surge of anger as he couldn't push past Twenty-Nine's resistance.

“The Wangfu and the Prime Minister’s residence have always had no dealings, Miss. If you were to use the banner of the Fifth Wangfu to recklessly abduct the Seventh Miss and Seventh Madam to the Fifth Wangfu, it would inevitably harm the reputation of the Fifth Wangfu and cause a rift between the Fifth Wangfu and the Prime Minister’s residence…”

"You're out of your mind! If the Prime Minister's residence was willing to treat them and take care of them, would they be in this state You saw with your own eyes how terrible their living conditions are. Do you have a heart We made a scene at the Prime Minister's residence today, and Murong Yue will definitely retaliate against them. If we leave them here, it will only make their lives even harder... You, get out of my way!"

"Miss, this subordinate is a dark guard of the Fifth Prince's Mansion. Everything must prioritize the Fifth Prince's Mansion. Please forgive me!" Twenty-Nine still stood his ground.

"Girl, forget it. I know you're kind, but if I cause you any unnecessary trouble, then this old woman would feel uneasy..."

"My dear, don't feel embarrassed or worried about inconveniencing me. Today, I absolutely must take you both out with me..."

"Where are you taking them" a woman's voice asked from the doorway.

Chen Zixuan looked towards the door and couldn't help but frown.e most important thing is..." Wan'er pointed outside. "The Sixth Prince is still out there."Ying Guifei pondered for a moment: “You call him in. That child is innocent and extremely admires Ruitian Li...
