Jiaochu

After returning, Ye Lingxi found Linglong and Guier and told them some things, especially asking them to pay attention to suspicious people wandering around Weiyang Palace, and to be careful about what they eat and wear.

The bell comes and says that the white pot is coming.

She was a little strange, thinking that she hadn't been sick these days. Was there something else?

After Linglong and Guier retreated, Lingdang brought Bai Hu over.

Compared with three years ago, Baihu has grown taller, her facial features are still delicate and fair, and she still has that meticulous and rigid temperament.

Seeing Ye Lingxi, Bai Hu raised his eyes slightly and then lowered his eyes slightly. After saluting, he said straight to the point: "Wei Chen is here to ask the princess a question."

Sure enough, nothing has changed. Say whatever you want, she said in her heart, "Ask me, this princess must know everything and tell me everything~" For some reason, when she saw that serious face, she couldn't help but want to "tease." "...Um...just teasing.

Bai Hu asked: "Three years ago, where did the prescription that the princess asked Mr. Yan to give to Wei Chen come from?"

She was a little surprised and thought to herself, shouldn't she have been thinking about this issue for the past three years?

After thinking for a few seconds, she gave the same statement as three years ago, which she read in an ancient book in the library. Less than a second after he finished speaking, Bai Hu said, "Wei Chen, please retire." His tone sounded particularly crisp and clear, without any hesitation, as if he was breaking off the relationship.

"Wait." She stopped him and asked, "Do you really want to know?" Bai Hu nodded, and she asked again, "If I tell you, and you think I'm talking nonsense, will you not believe it in the future? Me?" Bai Hu didn't answer. She had a headache and made up her mind. Just when she was about to speak, Bai Hu said, "If the princess doesn't want to say anything, you don't have to say it."

"I want to say, listen carefully." She said seriously, "You told me that prescription."

Bai Hu looked slightly surprised and said in a firm tone: "Wei Chen has not told the princess."

"Have you ever had a dream?"

Bai Hu looked puzzled when he heard this endless question. She said, "Everything in the world has cause and effect, but mortals like us with naked eyes can only see a small part of it. We cannot see the cause of the past and the consequences of the future. So, I will tell you now." I can’t explain it clearly, but I can only tell you one thing. Your medical skills can save many people. You have to believe in yourself and your own medical skills.”

Hearing the firm words that followed, Bai Hu's expression changed slightly. After a moment of silence, he bowed and left again, but was stopped by her again.

She rubbed her temples and said she had a headache recently. After checking her pulse, Baihu said a bunch of professional terms, but she didn't quite understand them. When asked if it was serious, he said four words: think less and worry less.

After Ling Ding sent Bai Hu away, Dong Mo invited Bai Hu over again on the way back.

Ye Lingjue asked about Ye Lingxi's physical condition, and Bai Hu answered truthfully that it was nothing serious. After Dong Mo sent Bai Hu back to the imperial hospital, he brought back another new imperial doctor.

The other person had an ordinary appearance, the kind that you would never find in a crowd. He looked to be less than thirty. His name was Chai Peng. When he saw Ye Lingjue, he greeted Ye Lingjue diligently, with a submissive look.

"sit down."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

After Chai Peng sat down, Dong Mo brought a cup of tea and placed it in front of him, then left. Ye Lingjue let him try it. Chai Peng took a sip and praised it as a good tea. Ye Lingjue said, "This snow-containing green tea comes from Xiyan, and it is tribute tea." Upon hearing the word Xiyan, Chai Peng lowered his gaze, then smiled and said to please, "Your Highness is indeed well-informed. , this is Weichen’s first time drinking such good tea, but unfortunately Weichen doesn’t know much about tea, so he may have let down His Highness’s kindness.”

Ye Lingjue picked up the teacup and shook it gently twice. White air rose like clouds. He took a light breath and blew away some of the white air in front of him. He took another sip of tea and asked casually, "Is it Mrs. Shang?" Did Fu send you here?"

Upon hearing the words "Shang Taifu", Chai Peng lowered his gaze, and a shadow flashed deep in his eyes. The fear and awe of this name penetrated deep into his bones. After his eyes changed slightly, he still said without changing his expression, " I have never heard of this lord before. Perhaps I am ignorant and ignorant, so I asked Your Highness to give me some advice."

Ye Lingjue said: "You faked your death to escape last time, and you took the risk to come back this time. Is it for the underworld treasure?"

After hearing the last four words, there was a clear look of surprise on the calm face. Chai Peng put on a smile for a moment, but his eyes were completely different. For the purpose of accusing someone, wouldn’t His Highness be in danger now?”

Ye Lingjue took out something from his sleeve, and Chai Peng's expression changed again.

"You are…"

He glanced over, and Chai Peng immediately knelt down to pay his respects.

"I have my own plans regarding the treasure, and I don't need to interfere with Taifu Shang." Ye Lingjue lightly scratched the tea cup twice, Chai Peng replied yes, and he continued, "Since you are in the Taiyuan Hospital, you will do it for me Keep an eye on it. Over at Weiyang Palace, I don’t want anything to go wrong." Chai Peng replied yes again.

When Dong Mo led Chai Peng away, Ling Dang happened to come over. After Chai Peng left, Lingdang said a few words to Dong Mo, and Dong Mo conveyed the words to Ye Lingjue.

In the evening, Ye Lingjue arrived at the Plum Garden.

New emerald leaves have grown on the plum branches. Under the reflection of the setting sun, the emerald green is dyed into dark green, and the leaf tips are slightly glowing, as if the twinkling stars have fallen in advance, spreading like silver flakes, lighting up the branches. Each leaf finally extends to the Qinxue Pavilion, casting a slender shadow behind the pavilion.

When Ye Lingjue came over, he stopped for a while, watching the people in the pavilion looking at the pale golden sunset on the horizon. That face seemed to be covered with a pale golden veil, so beautiful and mysterious that one couldn't help but think Reach out and lift the veil. When those eyes moved away from the sunset in the distance and looked towards him, he walked over.

Ye Lingxi stood in the pavilion, watching the people in front of him getting closer and closer, his eyes gradually becoming determined, harder than stone.

"What do you want to say to me?" Ye Lingjue's expression was soft, softer than water.

She turned her gaze sideways, stared at those eyes again, and said, "If my father really wants to make my second brother the prince, I hope my second brother can give up his position as prince."

Ye Lingjue smiled lightly and said, "Does Lingxi want me to resist the decree?"

She said: "At that time, as long as the second brother does not appear at the canonization ceremony, it will be fine."

The light gradually receded, and the shadow behind the pavilion gradually expanded, submerging the flickering light on the leaf tips little by little. Half of their faces were sunken in shadow, and half was about to be covered by shadow.

The two pairs of eyes seemed to have sunk into the deep twilight, confronting the deepest secrets in their hearts.
