"Why was it... sold to someone else?" Master Shen was confused.

He felt that he had not handled the matter well and he was very ashamed.

The Wei medicine merchant said, "I have been in Xidu for more than a month, and I have not sold that herb. I thought I could not sell it, so I thought about selling it cheaply before it withered and died... No one expected... Either no one wanted it, or everyone wanted it."

He was also in a difficult situation.

Mr. Shen is the son of the deputy leader. Who wouldn’t want to lean on this big tree?

What’s more…

He glanced at the immortal-looking man sitting in a wheelchair not far away. Somehow, he always felt that the other person was an important person.

"Brother Wei, Madam Wei..." Master Shen was so ashamed. He had just boasted to others that he had found medicinal herbs, but in the blink of an eye, the herbs had been bought by someone. He wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

He didn't know that this herb was bought for Zhuge Qing. If he knew, he would probably jump off the top floor on the spot.

"Who did you sell it to?" Mei Ji came over and asked.

The Wei merchant had never seen such a charming woman. His eyes unconsciously swept over Meiji's proud chest. He resisted the urge to bleed from his nose and said awkwardly, "I sold it to a pharmacist."

Mei Ji asked, "Where did you buy it?"

The Wei merchant dared not look at her again, fearing that he would lose his composure in public: "A market outside the east city."

Meiji asked again: "Do you remember what that person looks like?"

The Wei merchant nodded repeatedly: "I remember!"

Wei Ting asked Fusu to get paper and pen, and by the time the Wei merchant finished his description, his portrait was completed.

"Take a look." Wei Ting showed him the portrait.

"Yes! That's what he looks like!" The Wei merchant was shocked. How could someone paint a portrait so like him? It's amazing! "Okay, I got it." Mei Ji asked the portrait to be brought over, rolled it up and put it into her wide sleeves. "I will definitely bring back the herbs within twelve hours!"

The killer glanced at her and said, "Only if the other party doesn't use it."

Meiji glared at him: "Stop talking nonsense!"

She looked at Zhuge Qing, "Sir, I'm going to go find some herbs. Wait for my good news!"

Zhuge Qing smiled softly: "Okay."

She tiptoed and flew down.

This little episode did not affect Zhuge Qing's interest, and he invited the merchants from Wei State to join him.

The Wei merchant felt a little embarrassed.

Master Shen said with a red face from drinking: "The master told you to sit down, so just sit down!"

"What, sir?" the Wei businessman asked hesitantly.

Mr. Shen put his arm around him and said, "Mr. Zhuge."

The Wei merchant was stunned! Wei Ting was at a loss and wanted to leave the table several times to look for herbs.

Zhuge Qingyun was calm and relaxed, chatting and laughing from time to time.

Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh, this man is truly a man with terrifyingly strong mental qualities.

Wei Ting said seriously: "Why do you keep staring at my second brother?"

Su Xiaoxiao said, "Second brother is very handsome."

Wei Ting’s face darkened: My dear wife, you have changed.

Mr. Shen and the merchant from Wei State successfully drank themselves into a drunken stupor. Zhuge Qing called the shopkeeper and asked him to arrange a private room for each of them.

Then the group set off back to the inn.

"Second brother, let's go together. We live on the same street anyway." Wei Ting said while hugging the sleeping Da Hu.

Erhu and Xiaohu were in the arms of Su Xiaoxiao and Fusu respectively.

Zhuge Qing said nothing.

Wei Ting narrowed his eyes slightly, realized something, and said in shock: "Second brother, you are not moving away, are you?! What do you mean? You are deliberately hiding from me! If Da Hu and the others hadn't followed you... and happened to run into you tonight... would I never be able to find you again? How could you do this?!"

Wei Xiaoqi was injured.

You hide, you keep hiding! Ah Yuan looked at Zhuge Qing awkwardly: "Sir."

Zhuge Qing looked at the little guy sleeping in his arms and sighed, "Let's go back to the Moon-Chasing Inn."

A Yuan's mouth twitched. Are they going to move back?

…

The next day, the Emperor of Western Jin summoned Zhuge Qing to the imperial study in the palace.

"I heard that you have a younger sister, who is Qin Canglan's granddaughter."

The Emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty came straight to the point.

When talking to smart people, there is no need to beat around the bush.

Zhuge Qing sat in a wheelchair, his temperament deep and reserved, with a faint smile on his lips: "Ah, that's what happened."

The Western Jin Emperor paced a few steps in the room and frowned at him: "Aren't you from Northern Yan? How are you related to the Qin family of the Great Zhou? I don't remember Qin Canglan having a grandson as old as you."

Zhuge Qing said softly: "I am not a member of the Qin family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and she and I are not blood siblings. I want to recognize her as my adopted sister."

"Stepsister?"

"She looks somewhat like my long-lost sister. The first time I saw her outside of the Western Capital, I had the idea of ​​taking her as my adopted sister."

The Western Jin Emperor looked at him suspiciously: "I...have never heard of your sister."

Zhuge Qing smiled bitterly: "I don't want to mention sad things to others. My sister is my only relative in the world, but unfortunately we were separated ten years ago. I have searched many places over the years, but I didn't find a clue until three years ago."

The Western Jin Emperor paused and said, "Three years ago...your sister came to the Western Jin?"

Zhuge Qing nodded slightly.

The Western Jin Emperor frowned and said, "So... your real purpose in staying in the Western Jin is to find your sister?"

Zhuge Qing said nothing.

This look was seen as a kind of acquiescence by the Emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty.

The Emperor of Western Jin was originally worried that without the stone marrow, he would no longer be able to stay with him. But now it seems that he was worrying too much.

Zhuge Qing sighed: "However, everything seems to be just Qing's wishful thinking."

The Western Jin Emperor said in a deep voice: "Why? Is she not willing to be your sister anymore?"

Zhuge Qing smiled.

The Emperor of Western Jin quickly realized that the girl was Yuwen Xi's friend, and Zhuge Qing was Yuwen Huai's adviser. The two families did not get along, so it was not surprising that the little girl did not agree.

The Emperor of Western Jin was by no means someone who was easily fooled, but Zhuge Qing had spent three years gaining the king's trust bit by bit, and now the Emperor of Western Jin was easily able to trust him.

The Western Jin Emperor snorted, "How many people are eager for a good thing, but she actually disdains it."

Zhuge Qing said: "Everyone has his own ambitions."

The Western Jin Emperor sighed: "What a wonderful woman."

Soon, the Western Jin Emperor thought of something. If that girl refused to acknowledge Zhuge Qing as her sworn brother, would she also be unwilling to treat Zhuge Qing's leg? "Hegui."

"His Majesty."

"Go to the inn."

Su Xiaoxiao had just finished breakfast with the three children and was about to go out to the Princess's Residence for a follow-up visit for the young prince.

My father-in-law suddenly came to my house.

When Su Xiaoxiao saw him, she remembered Guo Lingxi's complaint to the Western Jin Emperor. The Western Jin Emperor probably knew that she was Zhuge Qing's "sister". Could He Gonggong be here to ask her for the gold back? He Gonggong asked, "What has Madam Wei thought about this?"

Su Xiaoxiao said seriously: "I'm still considering it."

He smiled at the eunuch and took two heavy boxes of gold from the eunuch who accompanied him: "His Majesty said that if you agree to treat the patient, the consultation fee will be doubled."

Su Xiaoxiao: “???”

The second brother is so awesome\(^o^)/~ 　　 　 (End of this chapter)
