Chapter 605: Clingy Xiaoqi (Part 1)



Meiji was stunned.

Su Xiaoxiao had seen quite a few Ganoderma lucidums, and she could tell at a glance that this one was of a special quality.

Seeing Su Xiaoxiao carefully examining the purple Ganoderma lucidum, Sai Huatuo walked over and said, "Feng Xiaoran has quite a few purple Ganoderma lucidum, but this one has the best medicinal effect."

Su Xiaoxiao asked: "Why does Feng Xiaoran have so many medicinal herbs?"

Sai Huatuo explained: "He came to the Princess Royal because he came from the eldest prince's side. He was worried that the Princess Royal would not accept him wholeheartedly, so he secretly recruited many doctors and pharmacists, hoping to win the Princess Royal's trust by curing the young prince's illness."

It's just that you interrupted me, so Hua Tuo didn't say this.

Su Xiaoxiao handed the purple Ganoderma to Sai Huatuo: "Are you sure it's this one?"

Sai Huatuo said: "I am sure."

He returned the Ganoderma to Su Xiaoxiao and said, "I had no choice this time. I wonder if my grandson..."

Su Xiaoxiao put the Ganoderma lucidum away and said, "I will not break my promise to you."

The story begins last night.

Sai Huatuo came, and although he behaved extremely sincerely, Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao still had some doubts in their hearts, so they asked a killer to secretly follow Sai Huatuo.

After learning that Sai Huatuo was threatened by Feng Xiaoran with his grandson, the killer brought the news back to Zhuge Qing's residence.

The few of them then came up with their next plan. Zhuge Qing went to the palace to ask the Emperor of Western Jin for an order to get the Ganoderma lucidum. It would be fine if Feng Xiaoran handed it over obediently, but it would be fine if he didn't, because he had been lured away anyway.

The remaining people split into two groups. Wei Ting and the killer went to rescue Sai Huatuo's grandson, while Su Xiaoxiao, Mei Ji and Sai Huatuo came to get the purple Ganoderma lucidum.

Half an hour later, Su Xiaoxiao and her group returned to the courtyard at the back door of the inn.

As soon as Sai Huatuo entered the room, he saw four children squatting on the ground playing marbles. The triplets were brave and they were the ones playing mainly, while the other six-year-old boy was a little timid and squatted on the ground without saying a word.

"Little brother, it's your turn." Erhu said.

"Here." Da Hu handed him a marble.

Xiaohu jumped up: "Hit, hit, hit, hit!"

He took it timidly, held it with his index finger, put the knuckle on the ground, and gave a slight wave of his thumb, and the marble rolled out, knocking Da Hu's marble into the hole.

Xiaohu cheered: "Awesome! Awesome!"

The little boy smiled shyly.

Sai Huatuo's eyes were moist. He took a few trembling steps, holding back the sobs in his throat and called out, "Qi'er."

The little boy heard the familiar voice, turned his head, dropped the marbles in his hand and rushed into Sai Huatuo's arms: "Grandpa!"

Sai Hua Tuo hugged his lost grandson tightly in his arms. His son had passed away, and his grandson was his only wish in the world.

Otherwise, even if Feng Xiaoran killed him, he would not be threatened by him.

"I...can I see you again, sir? I'm sorry, sir...you saved me once...and saved my grandson...I...I want to apologize to you in person."

"No need." Wei Ting said, "Go away and don't show up in front of the master anymore."

Saving innocent children is human nature, but it does not mean that we forgive Sai Huatuo's betrayal.

Sai Huatuo bowed deeply towards Zhuge Qing's house with tears in his eyes, and left with the little boy.

Eunuch He and Feng Xiaoran left the palace and came to Feng Xiaoran's residence. At this time, Feng Xiaoran didn't know that the Ganoderma lucidum had already been stolen and Sai Huatuo had already left with his grandson. He took Eunuch He to the warehouse and let him choose it himself.

"All the purple Ganoderma are here. If you want the one, take it yourself."

A very generous look.

My father-in-law wasn't picky, he took it all at once.

Feng Xiaoran's teeth were aching.

Even if these purple ganoderma are not the best, they are not bad. He spent a lot of money, okay? But they didn't even leave him a single one!

He and his eunuch brought the purple Ganoderma lucidum back to the palace to report.

The Western Jin emperor was also generous and said to Zhuge Qing: "Take them all back and let Doctor Qin take a look and decide which one to use or whether to use all of them."

Zhuge Qing thanked him but did not leave.

"Anything else?" asked the Emperor of Western Jin.

Zhuge Qing said bluntly: "We are still missing one medicine."

"What medicine?"

"Jade coral."

When he heard it was Yu Shanhu, the face of the Emperor of Western Jin Dynasty turned unhappy.

Zhuge Qing gave him a strange look: "Your Majesty... seems to know about Yu Shanhu?"

The Emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty not only knew about it, but he was the one who gave it away, okay?

The jade coral was one of the dowries of the princess of Northern Yan. It sounded nice to call it a dowry, but it was actually a tribute. The third prince Yuwen Qi always liked this kind of strange stuff, so the Western Jin Emperor gave it to him as a reward. It was not a very valuable thing, so no one took it too seriously. Who would have thought that it was a medicinal herb for treating cold poison? Zhuge Qing looked at the Western Jin Emperor innocently.

The Western Jin Emperor coughed lightly and said in a deep voice, "I understand. I will send someone to get it. You go back and wait for news."

It's embarrassing to ask for the reward back after giving it away.

Zhuge Qing smiled slightly and said, "Qing will take his leave first."

When he left the palace, Wei Ting was waiting for him in the carriage.

Zhuge Qing sighed and glanced at him: "Why are you so clingy?"

Wei Ting said confidently: "I don't care, I'm afraid you'll run away."

Zhuge Qing paused and said, "Forget it. When we were kids, you were the clingiest one."

Zhuge Qing refused to admit it: "I didn't say that."

Wei Ting stretched out his hand: "Then return the rent to me!"

"Did you get the purple Ganoderma lucidum?" Zhuge Qing asked.

Wei Ting said seriously, "Don't change the subject. Do you want your brother or the rent?"

Zhuge Qing thought for a moment and said, "Rent money."

Wei Ting: “…”

On the other side, the old marquis and Su Yuan came to the inn. They already knew Zhuge Qing's true identity and were shocked for several nights at the Xidu Inn.

It’s not that I’m shocked that Wei Erlang is still alive. Okay, that’s also shocking. However, the most shocking thing is that he is actually the most famous strategist in Xidu.

Since the day they set foot in the Western Jin Dynasty, they have been hearing about this man's deeds. Otherwise, they would not have asked to meet the Black Armored Army trained by him.

In their eyes, Zhuge Qing is simply a legend.

And this legend turned out to be Wei Qing, who was once unknown in the Wei family? "This is a bit too much to hide one's incompetence..." The old marquis felt that he needed a pound of Erguotou to calm his nerves. In the past, he was jealous of Qin Canglan, and now he was jealous of Wei Wei.

"Father, we're here."

Su Yuan reminded.

The two men got off the carriage.

The three kids were tired from playing and took a nap at Zhuge Qing's place. Su Xiaoxiao went back to the inn to get clothes for the others and ran into the old marquis and Su Yuan.

"Great uncle, eldest uncle, um...grandfather." Before the old marquis changed his expression, she decisively changed the address.

The old marquis smiled instantly.

The two came to say goodbye.

"Are you leaving so soon?" In the inn's room, Su Xiaoxiao poured a cup of tea for each of them.

Su Yuan smiled and said, "It's not that fast. The Beiyan marriage delegation only stayed for ten days. We have stayed long enough. The delegation plans to leave in the next few days. My father and I came here to ask you if you want to go back with us."

This question stumped Su Xiaoxiao.

The young prince's health needs to be taken care of, but it's not a big problem. It mainly depends on Zhuge Qing's medicinal materials. The purple Ganoderma lucidum is already in hand, as well as a piece of jade coral.

This shouldn't be a big problem. The third prince is not Feng Xiaoran. He won't be hypocritical to the Emperor of Western Jin. As long as Yu Shanhu is still in his hands, he will definitely hand it over obediently.

Fusu had just gone to his house to keep an eye on it, in case Feng Xiaoran came to disrupt the situation. No bad news had been received for the time being, and everything was under control.

It's just a little troublesome to ask the Emperor of Western Jin to release the people, but Zhuge Qing has already gained the trust of the Emperor of Western Jin. He directly told the Emperor that he only had half a year left to find medicine, and the Emperor of Western Jin would not disagree.

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, we can go together."

Su Yuan smiled and said, "That's great! Father was worried all night last night. He said that if you can't go back, he will find a way to stay. Father has never been so worried about his grandchildren."

The old marquis snorted, "How can this be the same? Those naughty kids you gave birth to are so painful to look at!"

Su Yuan asked with amusement: "Do you dislike Mo'er and Xuan'er as well?"

These two didn't. The old marquis was extremely satisfied with Su Mo. Su Xuan was a little too quiet, but he didn't make trouble and was considered obedient. The second and third brothers would fight whenever they met, and the fifth brother went out to cause trouble all day long...

A few people chatted in the house for a while. It was getting late, and it was time for the old marquis to return to the inn.

"Pack up, and I'll send someone to pick you up on the day of departure."

After giving the instructions, he and Su Yuan got on the carriage back.

Wei Ting and Zhuge Qing did not return to the courtyard immediately, but asked Ah Fu to go to the East Courtyard Building first.

The children loved the lamb chops and meatballs from Dongtinglou, so Zhuge Qing had them prepared for the children to take back.

Wei Ting said with a dark face: "Why is there nothing I like to eat?"

Brother, you have changed.

I am no longer your most beloved Xiaoqi!

After coming out of Dongting Tower, the two returned to Zhuge Qing's residence.

Wei Ting took the wheelchair down and pushed him into the yard.

Zhuge Qing took off his mask, and his skin, which had been suppressed for a day, turned slightly red.

Guo Lingxi also heard the news that her brother was about to return to the Great Zhou. She asked the Emperor of Western Jin to let her leave the palace to bid farewell to her brother. The Emperor of Western Jin generously agreed and allowed her to leave the palace incognito with the palace maids and eunuchs.

She didn't want to say goodbye to her brother at all, but wanted to take this opportunity to repair her relationship with Yu Wenjing.

She went to buy the crab roe cakes that Yu Wenjing loved to eat, and it happened to be next to the Feiyue Inn.

She took the snacks and took a look inside the Feiyue Inn as she passed by.

She saw Wei Ting at the back door.

Thinking that she might never have the chance to see him again in this life, she bit her lip and decided to go and say a few words to him.

But when she came to the backyard of Feiyue Inn, she unexpectedly saw Zhuge Qing sitting in a wheelchair under the peach tree.

Zhuge Qing was not wearing a mask, revealing the face that she had seen countless times in the Wei family since she was a child.

She clenched her fists, and the blood in her body froze: "Wei...Wei Qing?"

Good night
