Bai Banxia burst into laughter, "He didn't come here to teach you a lesson, right?"
"Not only that, he chased me into my bedroom and kept saying, if it wasn't for his age, I would have thrown him out." Perhaps the memory was too deep, Qi Zhen's face turned dark when he mentioned it.
"Why did I teach you a lesson?" Bai Banxia asked curiously.
Qi Zhen's expression became even more helpless, and he said: "He said that I went too far in exposing myself to others, and told me not to mess around. If I want to marry my benefactor, he will help me persuade my father."
"So he also had some credit for the marriage, right?" Bai Banxia asked.
Seeing Qi Zhen nodding, Bai Banxia took a look at the post and said, "I told you earlier that I would go to the flower viewing party."
After the matter was decided, Bai Banxia continued to treat illnesses and learn the rules. In the meantime, she took time to take her parents out for a tour of the capital. Fortunately, although her rumors were spreading, no one knew her, and there were no onlookers.
Condition.
Three days later, when it was time for the flower-viewing banquet, Bai Banxia dressed up, brought a maid arranged by Grandma You, and went to the Prime Minister's Mansion for the banquet.
To be honest, she has no interest in flower viewing unless the flowers can be used as medicine, so her visit is just a formality and she doesn't dress too elaborately so as not to lose face.
When the carriage stopped, the maid helped her out and handed her the invitation. The maid from the Prime Minister's Palace immediately saluted her respectfully.
"Miss Bai, please come this way."
Bai Banxia saw that the maid didn't show any contempt or fear because of the rumors, so she guessed that the Prime Minister's Mansion was managed well and that the Prime Minister's wife was a good family manager.
Soon, she was led into the main hall, and the maid announced that Miss Bai from Prince Ping's Mansion had arrived.
The prime minister's wife stood up with a smile to greet her. As a junior, Bai Banxia gave her a junior salute. She hurriedly gave her a hand and said, "Let's not talk about these empty tricks. Come and talk with me."
She directly pulled Bai Banxia to sit next to her, and introduced Bai Banxia to the lady who was already present.
Everyone said hello, but Bai Banxia could tell that most of them were perfunctory because of the prime minister's wife's face, and some even showed jealousy because she was sitting next to the main seat.
Bai Banxia smiled and said hello in return. Everything was very calm. She would not be nervous about making people jealous because of the care of her master, nor would she worry about the rumors. She was who she was, calm and generous.
As for what other people think of her, let them do it.
"Miss Bai is really lucky to have saved Prince Ping." Suddenly a girl with an oval face said.
The subtext is that she, a commoner, luckily saved the prince and turned into a phoenix.
Bai Banxia didn't remember her identity, and said with a smile: "Prince Ping said that he was lucky, and he only saved his life when he met me."
"Miss Bai, do you think your medical skills are good?" The woman's tone was already a bit rude.
"Doctors must have confidence in medical skills. Of course, if I say it is not good, it will be an insult to the doctor. As for whether it is really good, you have to ask the medical clinic and the patient." Bai Banxia smiled very faintly and disappeared.
angry.
The prime minister's wife opened her mouth, looking at her and wanted to help persuade her to make peace, but the woman rushed to say, "I heard that you mutilated the patient and even cooked him. Isn't this terrible?"
"You also said you heard it. If this is really the case, why don't the officials come to arrest me?" Bai Banxia smiled, "No matter how Prince Ping is the prince, he can't ignore the law, right?"
She smiled at the prime minister's wife again and said, "If this is all true, I'm afraid I won't be able to sit here and drink tea and chat with everyone."
Someone had arrived, and everyone was greeting each other, interrupting the woman's conversation. Soon the housekeeper came to report that the flower viewing banquet had been arranged. Madams and ladies, please move on.
The prime minister's wife took Bai Banxia's hand and took her to the banquet table in the courtyard, still letting her sit next to her.
There are still many jealous people, but no one dares to spoil the atmosphere of the banquet by not giving face to the prime minister's wife. They can only endure it for the time being and silently catch Bai Banxia's mistakes.
Bai Banxia didn't care about the red tape, but she learned some rules from Aunt You, just because she didn't want to take advantage of those who caught her wrongdoings on this occasion.
So she slowly washed her hands, wiped her hands, tasted tea, held chopsticks, and a series of other actions, which almost made the faces of those who made mistakes almost become angry.
There was a faint smile on her lips. Seeing others being so unhappy made her happy.
The flower-viewing banquet was mainly light. The prime minister's family had a good chef, and the banquet and snacks were delicious. Bai Banxia ate it with gusto, and occasionally replied to the prime minister's wife with a few words. The scene was very harmonious.
The female relatives were chatting with each other, and somehow, they ended up talking about the court affairs.
"I heard that the current epidemic is really scary. The infection speed is very fast. As a result, a miracle doctor was born. Not only did he save many people who were infected, but he also developed a method of restraint. All of this has been spread to the imperial court. His Majesty asked the Taiyuan Hospital to check it.
The hospital has been praising his excellent case, and His Majesty seems to want to commend that doctor."
The person who said this was a lady with a round face and a very happy look. She spoke quickly and enunciated clearly, and could speak clearly in just a few words.
If she hadn't seen Bai Banxia and Bai Banxia didn't know her, she would have almost thought he was helping her show off her achievements.
"Isn't Miss Bai also a doctor? Do you know that miracle doctor?" the woman who had made trouble before suddenly asked.
Bai Banxia nodded, "I know you."
Nonsense, how could she not recognize herself?
The woman suppressed the contempt in her eyes, "I heard that there is a Divine Doctor Duan next to Prince Ping. It should be him, right? Didn't Doctor Bai learn medical skills from Divine Doctor Duan?"
"I haven't had the chance yet." Bai Banxia didn't explain. Anyway, she said it was herself, and this person might not believe it, so why bother talking to her.
The woman chuckled lightly, "That's it."
This sentence just doesn't make it clear that Doctor Duan doesn't like you at all and doesn't want to give you advice, so you don't have that chance.
Bai Banxia smiled and said nothing. If you think so, you win.
The others also laughed, some with contempt and some with disdain, thinking that Bai Banxia was just a barefoot doctor from the countryside who was lucky enough to save the prince.
At this time, the steward of the government came to report.
"Madam, someone from the palace came and said that Your Majesty has a reward."
The prime minister's wife was a little surprised. No matter how well she organized the flower viewing banquet, she wouldn't bother His Majesty to reward her with anything, right?
"Did you say it was a reward?" she asked in a low voice.
The steward hurriedly said: "The father-in-law only reminded Dr. Bai Banxia to take the order together."
Everyone was in an uproar and looked at Bai Banxia. Does this mean that the reward is for her?
At the flower viewing banquet attended by the aristocratic women in the capital, he issued a decree to reward Bai Banxia. This was the emperor trying to gain face for Bai Banxia.
The oval-faced woman who had previously ridiculed Bai Banxia looked a little ugly. She said unconvinced: "Miss Bai is so lucky to have King Ping ask for a reward for you."
