It was raining heavily outside the window, the room was bright and elegant, and Chu Li was thrown onto the bed.
"Master, you are wet. Please change your clothes and be careful of catching a cold." Jingying said.
Chu Dichi brushed away the rain from his sleeves:
"When Bai Jinyi comes over, call me."
"yes."
The footsteps went out.
After they walked away, Chu Li, who had fallen into "coma" on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes. Although there was fatigue and weakness in his eyes, he was conscious.
He wanted to find the woman from that night, but if she was exposed, she would surely die.
I'm afraid he has already suspected her.
Qin Muyu has been imprisoned, who will be next?
Mother?
Wen family?
With his methods, he would not show any humility even when going against the emperor.
How long can she hide?
Soon, Bai Jinyi came in the rain, covered in raindrops, and kept muttering in dissatisfaction: "It's raining so hard, why didn't you call earlier? I'm already halfway there. Didn't you say you wouldn't care about your nephew? You changed your mind so quickly."
A man’s heart is as unfathomable as the sea.
Chu Dichi changed into a crimson-purple robe, looking reserved and noble, and stood by the window. "If you say anything more, I'll send you back to the Divine Doctor Valley."
"Don't!"
He had finally escaped from the Valley of Divine Doctors, and he would never go back even if he was beaten to death.
Unless the master dies, I will go back to attend the funeral.
"I'll treat her."
Bai Jinyi strode to the bedside, felt the pulse, and made a hissing sound: "This is the result of starvation."
Chong Feng, who was standing next to him, was stunned and almost choked.
"She hadn't eaten for at least a day and a night, which caused stomach cramps. In addition, she was caught in the rain, which caused the cold to enter her body, and she was very angry, which led to her fainting."
But it's not serious. After waking up, eat something quickly to replenish energy and drink a dose of cold medicine and you will be fine.
Bai Jinyi wrote a prescription and Chongfeng immediately went to get the medicine.
Chu Dichi glanced over coldly, "You have stomach problems at such a young age?"
Generally, improper diet over a long period of time can lead to illness. Soldiers fighting on the battlefield often sleep in the open air, so they will basically have stomach problems.
Bai Jinyi stroked his nonexistent beard and said:
"She must have eaten too much junk food."
Chu Di was silent.
The Ninth Prince likes to eat, drink and have fun, so naturally he eats here and there all day long. The food cooked outside is definitely not as clean as that cooked in the imperial kitchen.
"I'll give her a few injections to get rid of the cold."
Chu Dichi: "Give me a few more injections."
"……no problem."
A slender and sharp silver needle pierced into his hand, and Chu Li lay unconscious and motionless.
The second shot, the third shot...
The eighteenth stitch...
Almost there!
If you prick it again, it will become a hedgehog!
Bai Jinyi held the cloth bag and picked up another silver needle. Seeing that the Ninth Prince was sweating and his face was red, he could not help but asked in surprise, "The acupuncture hasn't even been completed yet, but the cold has gone away so quickly?"
How could his needlework be so good?
He was very satisfied: "It seems that my medical skills have improved again. With time, I may even surpass the Divine Doctor Valley."
"Achi, don't you think so?"
Chu Dichi stood aside, looked at the person on the bed coldly, and said, "You have nothing to do here."
Bai Jinyi pointed at himself:
"I?"
"But the injection is not finished yet..."
"Doctor Bai, please come in." Jingying raised his hand to see the guest off.
Bai Jinyi's face turned cold. He pulled back the silver needles one by one and left in a huff.
They come when called and leave when dismissed, and they don't even charge for consultations. And they also depend on your mood. Whoever wants to serve in this Regent's Palace can do so.
He won't stay any longer!
The house returned to silence, with only the sound of rain falling outside the window, making the night even more peaceful.
About a quarter of an hour later, Chu Li gradually woke up with a whimper:
"Um……"
He opened his weak eyes and asked, "Where is this...Uncle?"
She struggled to sit up, and tears gradually gathered in the corners of her red eyes.
"Are you that worried about him?"
Chu Dichi stood in front of the bed, looking down at him.
"He is my best playmate," she said in a low voice, "I don't know how I offended the emperor's uncle. I hope the emperor's uncle will be magnanimous and not take it to heart with him."
"For him, she was willing to starve herself to death. I'm afraid she's more than just a playmate."
Chu Li asked, "If Commander Xiao and Divine Doctor Bai met with an accident, wouldn't the Emperor's uncle do his best to save them?"
"Do you know his last name is Bai?"
Chu Li's back stiffened slightly.
In the past, she seldom came to the Regent's Palace and did not know the people around him. Last time at the Coral Waterside Pavilion, although she had seen Bai Jinyi, she did not know his name.
Facing the man's sharp gaze, she said calmly, "I've heard others mention it."
"oh."
"Uncle, please let General Qin go!"
"Do you see those things on the table? They are gifts from the Duke's Mansion. Please enforce the law impartially and execute Qin Muyu."
"But he is innocent!"
"In the face of evidence, there is no question of injustice. Besides, I really like the gift sent by the Duke's Mansion."
People like him always speak with their skills. When did they ever value evidence?
"Since the Ninth Prince has something to ask for, I wonder what he is going to use to win over this king?"
Chu Li was startled when she met his sharp, hunting gaze. There was no concealment of aggression in his eyes, as if he wanted to strip her naked.
He didn't hold back at all.
Chu Li understood what he meant instantly.
But……
Chu Dichi walked closer step by step, "I have definite evidence in my hand that can prove General Qin's innocence."
He whispered in her ear: "Tomorrow night, I will wait for you at the Coral Waterside Pavilion. Will you come and get it yourself?"
Chu Li's back stiffened, and she felt the ebony scent on his body filling her entire nasal cavity, which was depressing and cramped, like a big net covering her, making it hard for her to breathe.
"Uncle..."
She couldn't help but clutch the quilt, her throat dry, "I... I'm worried that the longer I delay, the more detrimental it will be to Qin Muyu's reputation. Can you give it to me today? I'll come to see you tomorrow night."
"Do you think I am easy to fool?"
Chu Di glanced at her hesitantly, "If I give it to you now, will I still be able to see your shadow tomorrow night?"
"The imperial city is not big. Even if I want to run away, where can I go? Besides, considering the power of the emperor's uncle, if I don't keep my word and you rush directly into the palace, do you still need to wait for me?"
Chu Li knew there was a way to save Qin Muyu, so he was humble and obedient and stopped talking back.
"Too."
Chu Di nodded slowly and suddenly picked her up. "Since Xiao Jiu is so impatient, even though it's raining heavily tonight, why not go to the Coral Waterside Pavilion?"
"Uncle!"
Chu Li exclaimed, supporting his chest with both hands, like a frightened bird, "I, I'm not in a hurry anymore, I'm not in a hurry anymore!"
