At this mont, Feng Xiaoran did not know that his herb had already been stolen by a bird.
He had the habit of taking dicinal baths, especially after autumn. For this reason, he specially built a large bathhouse and dug a small white jade bath.
He relaxed and soaked in the hot pool, fantasizing that Zhuge Qing would die in pain and that everything that was snatched away by Zhuge Qing would return to his hands.
No, it was more than that.
He would accept all the connections and forces that Zhuge Qing had accumulated over the years, including the Black Armored Army.
“I’m really looking forward to it.’
Su Xiaoxiao was waiting for news in Yuwen Xi’s room.
The young Princess of Western Jin secretly pushed open the door and glanced in. “Qin Su.”
“Little Princess.” Su Xiaoxiao turned around and saw her.
The young Princess of Western Jin pushed the door open and gently closed it.
“Qin Su, don’t worry. No one discovered .”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled.
It would be strange it no one discovered it. However, the Western Jin Emperor had turned a blind eye now. Other than Yuwen Yi’s courtyard, Yuwen Xincould do whatever she wanted.
Yuwen Xin sat down beside Su Xiaoxiao. “Qin Su, are you waiting for my mother?”
Su Xiaoxiao nodded.
“Moxie just told that he wants to go out with my mother.” Yuwen Xin did not understand what was going on between adults. She just felt that it was not good for her mother to go out and leave Qin Su alone, so she decided to co over and accompany her.
“Qin Su, how’s my brother’s condition? When can I see him?”
Su Xiaoxiao said to her, “Soon. When the young prince’s smallpox recovers, you can see him.”
“That’s great!” The young princess held Su Xiaoxiao’s arm. ‘Qin Su, fortunately, you ca. Otherwise, I might not have a brother.”
Su Xiaoxiao comforted her. “The young Princess is a good person. You’ll be fine.”
The two of them chatted for a while before Yuwen Xi and Moxie returned.
Yuwen Xi took off her cloak and looked at Su Xiaoxiao and her daughter. She said to Moxie, “Go out with Xin’er.”
She had sothing to say to Su Xiaoxiao alone.
“Yes.” Moxie brought the young princess out.
Yuwen Xi placed the brocade box on the table, not with Su Xiaoxiao, but in front of her.
Su Xiaoxiao roughly understood what had happened.
She looked at Yuwen Xi. “Your Highness.”
Yuwen Xi said seriously, “What’s your relationship with Zhuge Qing?”
It seed that Yuwen Xi already knew that Zhuge Qing needed this herb.
Su Xiaoxiao’s expression was very calm. She did not feel guilty or flustered. She asked, “Did Feng Xiaoran tell Your Highness?”
Feng Xiaoran was Zhuge Qing’s sworn enemy. No, he was Feng Xiaoran’s self-proclaid sworn enemy. From the beginning to the end, Zhuge Qing had never treated him as an opponent.
Feng Xiaoran had been investigating Zhuge Qing. She rembered that i Ji had said that Feng Xiaoran had an apothecary under him. Perhaps they had seen Zhuge Qing’s dical case and guessed his condition.
There was one thing that Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t figure out. This kind of cold illness was very rare. Even the imperial physicians were helpless. How did that dicine master know that that particular herb could treat the illness? Yuwen Xi said coldly, “It’s him. It’s your turn to answer .”
Su Xiaoxiao lowered her eyes and sighed. “Your father asked to treat Zhuge
Qing.”
Yuwen Xi was stunned. “What?”
Su Xiaoxiao said in a low voice, “Although His Majesty didn’t tell who the patient was, he showed the other party’s dical case. He’s not well and is soone His Majesty thinks highly of. Other than Zhuge Qing, I can’t guess who else.”
Of course, Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t expose Zhuge Qing’s true identity. At this mont, she just had to push the bla to the Western Jin Emperor.
“If Your Highness doesn’t believe , you can enter the palace to ask. I believe that with Your Highness’s ability, it won’t be difficult to investigate this matter.”
Yuwen Xi frowned. “Yesterday, Xin’er said that Eunuch He ca to look for you to enter the palace for this?”
Su Xiaoxiao said gloomily, “Half of it is for Zhuge Qing, and the other half is to ask about the young Royal Prince’s condition. I showed a look of rejection yesterday, and today, His Majesty sent soone over with Eunuch He and gave a double deposit. I’m not doing it all for the money. I’m just worried that His Majesty is so determined. If I reject him, I might offend His Majesty.” Yuwen Xi asked, “Why didn’t you tell earlier?”
Su Xiaoxiao hesitated. “Firstly, I’m only guessing that it’s Zhuge Qing. There’s no evidence. Secondly…”
Yuwen Xi said calmly, “Secondly, you’re also worried that I won’t help you..”
