Wanruo noticed him looking at her and looked up at him. He didn't avoid her gaze, but looked at her calmly and smiled apologetically, "Sorry to bother you, young lady."

"You are a patient, what's the trouble?"

"I admire you for being a woman with such amazing medical skills and for being able to run such a large shop on your own."

Wan Ruo smiled indifferently: "It's just my family's ancestral property."

"That's quite impressive. My family has a family business, but my father never trusted me to support the family and always tried to test me."

"Sir, you are not from the capital, where are you from?"

"I'm from Cangzhou. I'm a merchant in the border area, often traveling between Beiliang and Xizhou."

Wan Ruo was a little surprised: "So far? Are you coming to the capital for business as well?"

"Yes, I came from Beiliang recently and brought a batch of goods, but now they are all gone." Jingzhao was a little sad.

"Saving your life is the most important thing. You can always earn more money."

He looked at her, a smile spreading across the corners of his lips: "Yes, I also feel that it is a blessing to be able to save my life, and it is also a blessing to be able to meet you, girl."

Wanruo smiled and told him, "Then take the medicine first."

Then he got up and left.

Jingzhao looked at her leaving figure, his eyes darkening a little.

-

Xie Mansion.

When Xie Xianyu returned, Qing'an was already waiting for him. "Sir, the master asked you to come to the study as soon as you return."

"Um."

Qing'an followed him, a little worried: "Master doesn't look well."

Xie Xianyu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he probably guessed what he was going to say.

Arriving at the study, Xie Xianyu walked in and bowed, "Father."

The elder master stared at him with a sullen face: "How dare you call me father!"

"Why is father angry?"

"Are you secretly supporting King Xuan behind the scenes?!"

"Father is overthinking."

"Don't take me for a fool! How could King Xuan have known in advance that King Jin was going to attack Xiangrui Tower?"

Being able to predict the actions of the King of Jin in advance and design such a plan to counter the trick, could the brainless King Xuan come up with such a plan?

No one knows a son better than his father. Prime Minister Xie knew that Xie Xianyu had secretly started to plant his own people in the court several years ago.

Isn't that exactly what Su Yan is like?!

And today he also learned that Xie Xianyu actually went directly to Prince Xuan's mansion to visit Prince Xuan. Isn't this an obvious thing?

The eldest master slammed the table in anger: "The Xie family is a noble family that never participates in factional disputes. How dare you break the rules!"

Xie Xianyu's eyes were filled with sarcasm. "Am I the only one in this family who has broken the rules?"

The master made a joke.

"Didn't father also support Prince Jin?"

The elder master's face was extremely grim. "What do you know! Can't you tell who is better, the King of Jin or the King of Xuan? How can a idiot like the King of Xuan succeed to the throne? You actually sided with the King of Xuan. What benefit did the King of Xuan give you? Are you crazy?"

Xie Xianyu raised his lips and said, "It would be difficult for King Xuan to seize the throne alone, but since I am here, I have my own way."

"you!"

The master stared with eyes wide open, looking at his completely undisciplined son in front of him, almost in disbelief.

"Father is already old, so you should stop worrying about him. I will take care of the future of the Xie family."

"I'm not dead yet! I'm warning you, stop interfering in King Xuan's affairs! You should listen to your parents now and find another partner soon, get married quickly and have children, instead of doing these ridiculous things all day long!"

The master was so angry at this rebellious son that his face turned red and his neck became thick.

Xie Xianyu said calmly, "I've already made arrangements for my marriage. Don't worry, father. I'll be welcoming my new wife into our family by next spring at the latest."

The master was stunned again. Why did he suddenly become so obedient?

Xie Xianyu was too impatient to say anything more: "Then I'll take my leave first."

"Get out of here right now!"

-

Fu Xian reported to Xie Xianyu as usual these days, but the frequency changed from once every two days to once a day.

"My cousin was giving a free consultation at the shop yesterday. They offer free consultations on the 15th of every month. Many people who can't afford to see a doctor lined up in front of Jinshangtang today. My cousin was so busy that she closed the shop at dusk."

Fu Xian paused, then added, "The man is still in the shop. He's seriously injured and can't get out of bed. However, the dressings he wears are usually made of stone. My cousin only checks on him every day to check on his condition. After all, she's busy too."

Xie Xianyu pursed his thin lips, hinting at impatience.

Now she is as busy as a top and still has time to look at other men every day, but she doesn't care about him.

When he was injured in the bed, she was not so attentive and was even planning to escape!

He always felt uneasy, and he didn't know why.

After thinking about it, I decided to take a look in person to be on the safe side.

"Get me a car."

"yes."

Jin Shang Tang was much quieter today than yesterday. It was not a free clinic day, so there were no people queuing up. There were only a few servants and maids in the store busy greeting customers.

This was the first time Xie Xianyu appeared here openly. None of the servants in the shop recognized him. They only saw his noble aura and guessed that he must be a nobleman, so they did not dare to neglect him.

"Sir, what medicinal herbs would you like to buy?"

"I'm looking for your boss."

"The boss is in the backyard right now. I'll invite you in right away!" The servant was about to leave immediately.

Xie Xianyu stepped out before him: "No need, I'll go find her."

This medicine shop is divided into a front hall and a backyard. The backyard is used to dry some medicinal materials, and a small medicinal field is also planted.

After passing through the front hall and walking to the backyard, Xie Xianyu saw Wanruo bending over and fiddling with medicinal herbs.

She was still wearing her cotton skirt and apron. She ran her slender fingers over the herbs, smoothing them out, and then placed the basket in a sunny place.

Behind her, under the locust tree, there was a man sitting in a wheelchair. Seeing her busy, he couldn't help but lend a hand to help her.

But he never expected that his waist was not supported and he accidentally knocked over the box of medicinal materials and almost fell out of the wheelchair.

"Be careful!" Wanruo hurriedly supported him and helped him back into the wheelchair.

Xie Xianyu's face instantly darkened. He was busy overthrowing Prince Jin and dealing with his family all day long, but she had the leisure to care for this farewell man!

She frowned and said, "Don't move. The wound has opened again."

The man in the wheelchair smiled sheepishly: "I just want to help you."

She was about to say something when she suddenly felt a cold ray piercing her. She subconsciously raised her eyes and saw the sinister Xie Xianyu.
