Chapter 241 Young Man on a White Horse Drunk in the Spring Breeze 15

“Indeed, those guys have become much more aggressive lately, so we really need to be more careful.” Xiao Ruofeng nodded, then waved his hand: “Alright, it’s rare to have such a leisurely time, let’s not talk about these unpleasant things.” As he spoke, he put another piece of food on Xiao Ruojin’s plate.

Xiao Ruojin nodded in agreement and ate the food in her bowl. Before Xiao Ruofeng's gaze could turn cold, he suddenly stiffened and looked up in disbelief, asking, "Was there a piece of ginger in the food I just ate?"

After saying that, he put down his chopsticks, frowned, and remained silent, as if he were silently sensing something.

The original owner couldn't eat ginger; if she did, small red rashes would quickly appear on her body. Therefore, the dishes in the mansion's kitchen never contained ginger. Xiao Ruofeng was well aware of this. However, today, in order to test Xiao Ruojin, he specially asked the restaurant to put ginger in the dishes, hoping to see Xiao Ruojin's reaction after seeing the ginger.

Logically speaking, since Xiao Ruojin knows she can't eat ginger, she should pay extra attention to whether there is ginger in the dishes.

But in reality, it was impossible for Xiao Ruojin to notice whether there was ginger in the dish at first glance.

Although Xiao Ruojin was not favored by Emperor Tai'an, he was still a prince and could not eat ginger, so there was no way that ginger would appear on his table.

For example, in his own Jingyu Prince's Mansion, everything he eats and uses is based on his preferences. Every day, the dishes are carefully prepared by the kitchen staff, and before they are served to his table, they are inspected by a special person. So he has no chance to see "Jiang" at all.

This banquet was personally brought back by his younger brother, Xiao Ruofeng. In his opinion, his brother knew that he couldn't eat ginger, so there couldn't be any ginger in the dishes he brought. This had been the case before, and it shouldn't be an exception this time.

Therefore, Xiao Ruojin had to eat this dish with ginger, and she had to eat it without any precautions.

This is to prove his long-standing habit and his trust in his younger brother!

Sure enough, after eating this dish, Xiao Ruojin immediately felt unwell. She felt itchy all over, her chest felt tight, and she even felt a little suffocated. Her face also gradually turned red.

Xiao Ruofeng was shocked. He only wanted to use Jiang to test whether the person in front of him was his brother, but he didn't mean to really kill his brother.

He hurriedly got up and gently patted Xiao Ruojin's back: "Brother, how are you?"

"I've always broken out in rashes whenever I eat ginger since I was little, you know that, right?" Xiao Ruojin glared at him, annoyed, and said, "Are you even my brother? How could you forget something so important?"

Xiao Ruofeng lowered his head in shame, and all his doubts vanished instantly.

All the results of today's tests have proven that the person in front of him is indeed his brother, and not someone impersonating him. All his doubts now seem to be nothing more than his own unfounded speculations.

His elder brother trusted him completely, but he harbored suspicions about his brother. Even though he knew that his brother would get a rash and feel unwell after eating ginger, he still chose to use ginger to test him.

At this moment, Xiao Ruofeng's regret surged like a tidal wave, almost drowning him. His cheeks burned with guilt, and he dared not look Xiao Ruojin in the eye, afraid that she would see the filth in his heart.

"It's all my fault, brother, please spit out the ginger." Xiao Ruofeng lowered his head, his voice low and trembling.

"It's too late! It's too late! I've already started getting rashes all over my body." Xiao Ruojin rolled up her sleeves, looked at the patches of red rashes on her arms, and sighed helplessly.

"Brother, I'm sorry, I..." Xiao Ruofeng felt ashamed of his behavior today, and the words stuck in his throat.

He wanted to confess his purpose for today to Xiao Ruojin, but he didn't know how to bring up his absurd behavior.

Could it be that you've been too kind to me lately, brother, so I suspect you're an imposter?

How could he possibly say such shameless things?

How will his elder brother view him after he finds out?

Xiao Ruofeng was always a deep thinker. He was fine with others, but when it came to his older brother who raised him, he would only feel remorse for not giving enough. Now, seeing his brother fall ill because of his foolish actions, his self-blame was even more indescribable. He felt a sharp pain in his chest, as if a thousand-pound burden was pressing on his heart, and he could not let it go.

"It's my fault if nothing's wrong. I haven't eaten ginger in a long time, and I completely forgot about it." Xiao Ruojin frowned slightly when she saw his expression, but still shook her head and said, "No need to apologize. I know you didn't mean it. Have the butler fetch the medicine, and I'll be fine after taking it."

Xiao Ruojin did not blame Xiao Ruofeng; instead, she carefully comforted him.

Faced with his brother's comfort, Xiao Ruofeng felt even more guilty. He wished his brother could scold him severely like before, which would make him feel better.

As time went by, Xiao Ruojin's symptoms not only did not improve, but became more and more serious. Although he had taken medicine, the various discomforts in his body could not disappear immediately, which forced him to return to his bedroom to rest.

Xiao Ruofeng stayed by his side like a shadow, never leaving his side, and always paying attention to his every change.

After quickly arranging all the affairs in the manor, Princess Hu Cuoyang rushed to Xiao Ruojin's bedside. Seeing that his face was flushed and his exposed neck and hands were covered with shocking red rashes, she frowned and asked with concern, "Why is Your Highness suddenly like this?"

The original owner always cherished this princess, and the princess also cared deeply for the original owner. However, recently, due to the original owner's request to marry Yi Wenjun with the rites due to a concubine, the two have become somewhat estranged.

But upon hearing that Xiao Ruojin had suddenly fallen ill, Hu Cuoyang's worries instantly took over.

Xiao Ruofeng was still immersed in self-blame, and felt even more ashamed in front of the princess. After bowing, he lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, my brother's misfortune is all because of me..."

Seeing this, Hu Cuoyang had already guessed what was going on. She knew Xiao Ruofeng's character and his respect for Xiao Ruojin, so she knew he would never have any intention to harm anyone.

Besides, even if something happened between the two brothers, what could she, as their sister-in-law, say?

Everything still needs to be dealt with after Xiao Ruojin wakes up.

So she stopped talking about it, first comforting Xiao Ruofeng with a few words, and then urging the steward to fetch the imperial physician.

Before long, the old imperial physician who had previously taken Yi Wenjun's pulse arrived at the Prince's residence, panting: "For the Prince and Princess..."

Xiao Ruofeng waved his hand anxiously, indicating that he should dispense with the formalities, and urged him repeatedly to come forward to see the doctor.

The old physician dared not say more and quickly stepped forward to examine and treat Xiao Ruojin.

After a thorough examination, it was found that Xiao Ruojin was not seriously injured. He had only eaten a small piece of ginger and then quickly took his medicine. With proper rest for a couple of days, he would recover.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ruofeng and the princess both breathed a sigh of relief.
