The Hunter’s Lively Wife
Chapter 836 - Chapter 836 Chapter 836 A Big Incident Occurred

Chapter 836: Chapter 836 A Big Incident Occurred Chapter 836: Chapter 836 A Big Incident Occurred The area in front of the Prince Qi Residence was simplistic and unadorned, indistinguishable from the separate courtyards of common families; however, the luxury of this particular side courtyard was unparalleled, with every plant and tree selected with great care.

Carved beams and painted pillars, pavilions, terraces, and towers, even ponds and rockeries–if Su Yunjin had first come and thought the Prince Qi Residence lacked interesting sights,

it was only upon seeing this small courtyard that she discovered the hidden wonders of the Prince Qi Residence, and this courtyard, in particular, highlighted the prosperity of the residence.

Surely, a royal residence is indeed a royal residence.

Its opulence is beyond the imagination of ordinary folks.

As Su Yunjin walked along, she couldn’t help but marvel, remembering her first visit when the servants had forbidden her from wandering about. At the time, she assumed there was nothing much to see and thus did not sneak out to explore.

Now, it seemed there might be even more extravagant areas in the Prince Qi Residence.

Perhaps… the courtyard where the old Princess Consort resides?

Gu Yan went to the market and, following his young wife’s instructions, bought several carts of wild fruits.

He returned to the shop.

Gu Yan noticed the shop was closed and, curious where his young wife might have gone, saw a little maidservant waiting outside.

Honghong had been waiting there. When Gu Yan approached, yet unsure if he was indeed Su Yunjin’s husband, Honghong observed Gu Yan from a distance but did not come forward to inquire.

Only after Gu Yan had opened up the shop,

did Honghong step forward.

“Excuse me, sir, are you Master Su’s husband?”

Gu Yan looked at the woman before him with surprise and before he could reply, she continued, “Sir, I am Honghong, a little maidservant serving by the Princess Consort of Rui’s side. Master Su’s medical skills are excellent. The Princess Consort felt much relief from her morning sickness after taking Master Su’s prescriptions and wishes to trouble her to prescribe a few more treatments. Hence, she has sent someone to bring Master Su to the residence.”

Upon learning that his young wife had gone to the Prince Qi Residence,

people from the Gu Family arrived, claiming there had been an incident at the Gu home.

Led by Lingling, Su Yunjin made her way to a small pavilion, which was situated in the middle of a lotus pond, especially refreshing during the hot weather. Surrounded by lotus flowers, sitting in this pavilion not only allowed one to savor the scent of the blossoms but also helped to cool down and rest. The Princess Consort of Rui, now pregnant, was resting lazily against the pavilion’s railing.

“Your Highness, Master Su has arrived,” Lingling said, as everyone else dared not disturb the Princess Consort while she rested; only her trusted Lingling felt emboldened to speak.

Hearing the voice, the Princess Consort slowly opened her eyes and sat up. Upon seeing Su Yunjin, she smiled and gestured for her to sit. “Master Su, do sit down. Being with child, I tend to get tired easily. I had just leaned back for a moment, and I fell asleep just like that.”

Su Yunjin chose a seat opposite the Princess Consort and observed her, looking graceful and regal even as she had just awoken, with a rosy complexion.

She was indeed captivating.

“Your Highness, it is normal to feel tired when pregnant,” said Su Yunjin. The Princess Consort smiled warmly and gently placed her gaze on her belly.

At the thought of her child,

the Princess Consort’s eyes softened with affection.

Even though the little one she carried had already suffered many hardships, the Princess Consort still felt it was all worth it. The Prince was tender and considerate towards her.

She was entrusted with managing all the household affairs.

When the concubines made mistakes, it was she whom the Prince entrusted to handle the situation. Facing such trust and care from the Prince, the Princess Consort felt blessed, except–

when she considered how her unborn child had nearly been harmed time and again, the Princess Consort was overtaken by fright and trepidation, which did not go unnoticed by Su Yunjin.

Testing the waters, Su Yunjin asked tentatively, “Your Highness, is everything alright?”
