The two left the palace without taking a carriage, and walked side by side to the street.
Qi Zhen's clothes are very ordinary. If you don't know anyone, you won't know his identity as a prince.
Although Bai Banxia was dressed in pink, she didn't have any expensive jewelry on her head, and she just looked like a young girl. At most, her clothes were made of better materials, and she looked like an aristocratic lady.
"Is it hard when you go to an epidemic area?" When he reached a place with few people, he quietly reached out and took her hand.
The warmth came from her palms, and her ears felt hot again.
It was obvious that the two of them had held hands many times before and were quite close to each other. Why were they so embarrassed to see each other again after being separated for a while?
Bai Banxia secretly cursed herself for being hopeless, shook her head and said: "It's not hard, I have food and drink, and I also arranged for rest. The epidemic was quickly controlled, and everyone is safe."
"The imperial court commended those doctors, they should be very grateful to you." Qi Zhen laughed. He saw from the letter how Banxia persuaded those people. Sihai was as meticulous as Polang, so he wrote down every word.
Wrote it in the letter.
"It's my turn to thank them. Without their help, I couldn't have done it alone, and I also passed the second test." Then she told her about her contact with the great elder and the heir to Xuanji Hall.
All gathered together to listen.
Most of these things are unknown to Sihai, and Qi Zhen has not received any news.
"Do you want to be the heir because of me?" he asked after a moment of silence.
"No." Bai Banxia immediately denied.
Qi Zhen held her hand tightly, "Don't lie to me, you don't really like being the heir. You are afraid of trouble and like to be alone."
Bai Banxia laughed dryly, "Are you the roundworm in my stomach?"
Qi Zhen was amused, "So you are afraid that I am in danger and want to have someone else to rely on to help me?"
"I'm afraid I may not have the ability to help you. I don't know how big the power behind Xuanji Hall is. But I think since I have chosen you, and since we can't escape the imperial power, we have to have an extra trump card, so that we can at least protect ourselves.
.”
She said with a smile, "But the Great Elder has said in advance that he is not allowed to help you seize the position. If you want to sit in that position, I can't be the heir of Xuanji Hall unless I make a clean break with you and go our separate ways."
road."
Qi Zhen couldn't help but stretched out his other hand and pinched her nose, and said: "I won't fight for that. My mother told me not to have any delusions when I was little, so I have never been interested in that. My name is
The old man will raise a few more sons."
"By the way, go back and show him how many years he has left to live." He added.
"good."
Bai Banxia agreed, and the two continued to walk forward. Bai Banxia talked about Chen Rufeng again. When Qi Zhen heard about Gu Chong, he immediately said: "Why didn't you ask Sihai to send a message to me earlier? I have the right one."
People understand this.”
He paused and said, "You have seen that man too."
"Divine Doctor Duan?" Bai Banxia asked.
"No, it's that native man named Ni Loach." Qi Zhen said.
Bai Banxia remembered that man. When the mountain behind Maple Village collapsed, he brought a few companions over. They quickly found a location to dig a hole and successfully rescued the man.
At that time, Qi Zhen said that he was sent by Yin Shan. Du Kangcheng was very angry and said that Yin Shan actually raised a local master.
Tufuzi belongs to the group of grave diggers and is especially disliked by orthodox people.
"He also raises Gu?" Bai Banxia asked in surprise.
"He himself is from the Miao border. His voodoos are quite special and he is very familiar with the underground." Qi Zhen smiled, "Every one of their villages is a voodoo breeder. He is the most familiar with this matter. It just so happens that they can't enter Beijing either.
, I sent an order for him to go see Chen Rufeng."
"Okay." With professionals taking action, Chen Rufeng should be able to get rid of Li Rule soon.
The two of them had already arrived at Xuanji Hall while they were talking. Qi Zhen knew the way without even asking for directions, which meant that he had been here before.
"Have you already inquired for me in advance?" Bai Banxia turned to look at him.
"No, there are many traditional Chinese medicine clinics in Beijing, but I haven't noticed it before. When I came back this time, I passed by occasionally, and I thought about people when I saw things, so I stood outside and looked at them for a long time..." Qi Zhen said, his eyes darkened, and there was endlessness in his eyes.
thoughts.
When he was like this, she seemed to be hugging him, telling him that she was here and they would never be separated again.
"Is it Doctor Bai?" A steward came out and greeted Bai Banxia warmly, instantly interrupting the conversation between the two.
Bai Banxia put away the charm in her heart and hurriedly returned the gift and asked: "I am Bai Banxia, has the manager received the message from Xiguan City?"
The manager nodded hurriedly and praised with a smile: "Yes, your information has also been sent over. You are really young and promising."
"It's the elders' favor that makes you laugh. I plan to start a consultation tomorrow, but what procedures do I need to go through?" Bai Banxia asked.
"Just register and get your waist badge." The steward led the way, and soon she registered and got her waist badge.
She looked at the clinic inside, and it seemed that they were also divided into A, B, C and D. She wondered who was the number one D in Beijing.
But since she was new here, she must only be attending medical appointments outside. She didn't really care. As long as she could see a doctor, it would be the same anywhere.
Then she said goodbye to the steward, took her belt and left first.
As soon as she left, a figure walked out of the back hall and asked the steward: "Didn't she make any request?"
"No, he seems to have no airs and is easy to talk to," the steward replied.
"She's just a little girl. She's dressed so childishly. Do you really think she's good? Is she presbyopic?" The man said disdainfully, then turned and left.
Bai Banxia didn't know that the assessor had appeared, and she didn't think much about it. She just wanted to complete what she should do as soon as possible. As for the rest, she could just wait and see.
In the evening, Qi Zhen asked the cook to prepare a table of food for everyone. He didn't want anyone to spread the word outside that someone from the palace had come and gave him a reward.
Everyone originally had their chopsticks, but everyone had no choice but to put down their chopsticks and go out together to greet him.
A father-in-law came and said that the emperor saw that the Bai family had a hard journey, so he rewarded them with jewelry, tonics, silk and satin, and so on.
Bai Banxia's family thanked him again and gave his father-in-law a red envelope.
After the father-in-law left, Bai Banxia said to Qi Zhen, "Can we continue eating?"
"Let's go and continue eating." Qi Zhen smiled and asked everyone to go back to eat. Everyone sat down and started drinking and eating lively again.
The steward of the mansion looked at it strangely. He originally thought that the Bai family was from the countryside, with no background and no money, so they would be very happy to see so many gifts. Little did he know that Miss Bai didn't even look at it, and went back to continue eating.
The same goes for her family members, who seem to be informal, but none of them are money-obsessed.
Of course, in the eyes of the Bai family, nothing is as important as eating. When you are full, you can think about other things. Is it rare that gold, silver and jewelry can escape if they are left there?
