Next, Qi Jinghao had the injured family sent back and gave them twenty taels of silver, considering it as compensation and medical expenses.
In front of the carriage, the young man looked at Yang Ruxin.
"Go on." Yang Ruxin smiled.
The young man, with red-rimmed eyes, nodded and then got into the carriage, but in his heart, he was determined to rise above his current situation.
Yang Ruxin didn’t take this matter to heart at all; it was just a small effort on her part. Besides, she acted mostly for Li Yi’s sake.
Of course, it can also be said more righteously that false medicine harms people, and she was thinking of the common people.
Of course, this wasn’t the time to worry about this, especially since there was a significant presence nearby. Her intuition told her that Qi Jinghao was clearly targeting her.
"Passing by here on my way back to the fief." Qi Jinghao looked very candid, "I originally intended to visit your village, but didn’t expect to meet you here."
"Ha ha." Yang Ruxin smiled, "Prince, do you say it’s on the way?" From Beijing to Hanzhong is a straight line, yet he detoured here and still called it ’on the way’?
"Ah, don’t expose me, alright? I am a prince, after all." Qi Jinghao laughed heartily, speaking of awkwardness, yet not showing any.
Yang Ruxin could only smile and change the topic, "Prince, you’re not returning to the fief alone, are you?"
"The princess and the rest are behind, and will enter the city by evening..."
Yang Ruxin frowned slightly. The princess wasn’t in good health, yet he could leave his wife behind and come ahead himself; how broad a heart must he have? Although his presence seemed to ease the resolution of this matter, it could have been solved without him, so she wasn’t grateful at all.
However, it showed there were definitely issues between the Han Prince and the princess. Even though she had people keeping an eye on the Wang Residence, nothing significant was observed, but her intuition was incredibly accurate.
"This is..." Qi Jinghao turned his gaze to Peng Mingzi.
Peng Mingzi had been in a state of shock all along; she only came out for some shopping, yet so much had happened. Seeing the Han Prince watching her, she hurriedly paid her respects, "This humble woman, Peng Mingzi, greets the prince."
"You’re a friend of Madam Ruyi, no need for formalities." Qi Jinghao raised his hand slightly.
Yang Ruxin glanced at her, "Miss Peng, it seems today’s shopping might not happen."
"It’s alright." Peng Mingzi smiled, "I’ll head back first, then."
At that moment, the sound of hooves suddenly echoed from afar, and they saw a woman riding towards them. When she reached them, she jumped off the horse, "Prince, how could you leave on your own?"
Yang Ruxin recognized her; wasn’t this Peng Jing?
She couldn’t help but glance at Peng Mingzi, wondering if they were related since they shared the surname Peng.
"Didn’t I tell you to accompany the princess into the city?" Qi Jinghao frowned.
"Why should I accompany her?" Peng Jing showed disdain, "I’m your woman, naturally I should be with the prince."
Qi Jinghao’s brows furrowed immediately, but he ultimately said nothing more.
Yang Ruxin even noticed a fleeting hint of murderous intent in Qi Jinghao’s eyes.
"Yang Ruxin?" Peng Jing turned to look at Yang Ruxin, "What are you doing here?"
Yang Ruxin smiled, "That’s an odd question, Consort Madam. This is my home, why shouldn’t I be here?"
