Su Wan didn't feel anything was wrong, nor did she have the same possessive thoughts as others.
She nodded. "Yes, it would be too much trouble for me to make so much anti-inflammatory solution by myself. It would be easier for me to have other doctors do it."
If a patient is cured, the medicines in the pharmacy will be automatically replenished.
Having been given an extra life compared to others, and possessing a prescription for medicine, she felt she had to do something to make the most of this extra life.
On the way from Linyuan Village to the General's Mansion, she was deeply moved. No matter the era, it was always the common people who suffered.
She looked up at him, a silver ribbon tied around her black hair. As the wind blew, the strands of hair fluttered, making her fair face even more lively. Her sky-blue robe was embroidered with moon-white bamboo, and under the sunlight, she radiated a dazzling light.
Wei Jingzhuo's gaze was fixed on her, unmoving, his usually expressionless and aloof eyes reflecting a light.
That light was her.
Su Wan was extremely close to him, close enough to smell his scent, a faint, cool fragrance lingering in her nostrils.
Su Wan was taken aback, and subconsciously realized that the two of them were too close, so she took a small step back.
Wei Jingzhuo stretched out his long arm and pulled the person into his embrace.
Su Wan suddenly bumped into his arms, the unexpected movement leaving her completely stunned.
She placed her hands on his chest, trying to push him away.
She used to think Wei Jingzhuo was a gentleman who kept his distance, but now he starts touching her inappropriately all the time.
No matter how hard she struggled, she did not open her eyes and give up.
She said in a low voice, "We're outside, don't go too far. If someone sees us dressed as men, aren't you afraid people will say you're gay?"
To be honest, if two men were seen hugging and cuddling in broad daylight, people would definitely gossip.
He brushed aside the stray hairs that had fallen across his cheek and said gently, "No one will come into this courtyard without my permission."
The warm breath on her ear made Su Wan feel like half of her ear was going to go numb.
"That's hard to say," she said, rubbing her burning ears. "Then how did Bai Zhiyi get in?"
When Bai Zhiyi was mentioned, his expression showed displeasure.
That person dared to propose such an idea; he truly thought he was someone who could be easily fooled.
Su Wan sensed the hostility emanating from him. "What's wrong?"
"Ah Wan, we still have a use for Bai Zhiyi." His voice was calm and even, but she could sense that he had murderous intent towards Bai Zhiyi.
The reason for not killing them now is to kill them at a more opportune time later.
Wei Jingzhuo is now subtly letting Su Wan know what he's thinking.
I don't know if it was just her imagination.
...
Bai Zhiyi was escorted out of the courtyard and had no choice but to go find Zhao Xiyue.
When Zhao Xiyue heard that Bai Zhiyi had come to visit, she looked unhappy. "You came to see me, why did you go to the front yard?"
The front courtyard was a key part of the General's Mansion, containing many secrets. Even though she didn't care much about the affairs of the mansion, she knew that her grandfather was extremely strict in disciplining the servants.
Bai Zhiyi looked guilty. Seeing that she was unhappy, she quickly pulled her aside and said, "This is also my first time visiting the General's Mansion. I've heard people talk about the General's fame in the capital, but I've rarely seen him. Today I wanted to see what our great hero of the Great Jin Dynasty looks like. Don't be angry."
Zhao Xiyue was a simple person, and when she heard others praising her grandfather, she looked proud.
“That’s right, my grandfather was a great hero in our Northwest,” she said. “And Brother Jinzhi, Jinzhi is actually even more amazing than my grandfather.”
Others might not recognize the young general wearing the jade butterfly mask, but she knew it was her brother, Jinzhi.
But Jinzhi got married, and her grandfather wouldn't let her marry him.
She knew her grandfather's thoughts; no woman in their family had ever become a concubine.
Although she knew that her brother Jinzhi's marriage must have been forced by someone, it was a fact nonetheless.
For this reason, she has been staying indoors for the past few days and doesn't want to go out.
Bai Zhiyi deliberately asked her, "Miss Zhao, is the Brother Jinzhi you mentioned the young general whose face was disfigured, as everyone says?"
Since that young man's fame began to spread from the Northwest to the capital six years ago, no one knows his identity.
She also wondered if that person might be His Highness.
In her previous life, she only knew that His Highness had stormed into the capital from the Northwest, and knew nothing else.
But given the immense influence he wielded in the Northwest, she felt that the young general from before must have been His Highness.
The thought of that exceptionally talented prince, who had already come to the Northwest to fight on the battlefield at the young age of teens, filled her with excitement.
While she was in the capital, she had always heard her family and outsiders praising the Crown Prince's talents.
Unexpectedly, everyone underestimated His Highness, and at the same time, they were excited about their choice.
While others might not know, Zhao Xiyue knew perfectly well who that young general was.
But then he remembered his grandfather's repeated instructions not to reveal any information about his brother Jinzhi.
Even if that young general wearing the jade butterfly mask is Jinzhi's brother.
So when she heard Bai Zhiyi's words, she wanted to loudly refute them, but the words were already on the tip of her tongue, and she remained silent.
Seeing that she was silent, Bai Zhiyi's eyes flashed, and she deliberately asked, "In the capital, among the many noble ladies who admire His Highness the Crown Prince, that young general is the one who is most fond of them."
After her grandfather rejected her offer to marry Wei Jingzhuo, Zhao Xiyue was depressed for quite some time.
But whenever I hear anything about Wei Jingzhuo, I can't help but want to listen, and when I hear something bad about him, I can't help but want to refute it.
She hesitated for a moment, but still didn't speak. She only asked, "I've also met that general, but I've never seen his face with my own eyes."
Even if you've seen it, you can't tell anyone.
She has not only seen them, but she sees them frequently!
But she couldn't say.
Bai Zhiyi smiled softly. She saw a painting on the table, picked it up and took a look, only to find that it was a portrait of a man.
The man stood under the crabapple tree, and a few crabapple petals drifted down from the tree and landed on him.
She wore a moon-white brocade robe, and her long, black hair was casually tied back with a silver ribbon.
Her eyebrows and eyes were like a painting, especially her pair of dark and lively eyes, which seemed to speak volumes.
Although he was dressed as a man, he possessed an androgynous beauty that defied easy categorization; she had never seen such a handsome man before.
She asked in surprise, "Who is this?"
Zhao Xiyue walked over, saw the portrait on the table, her eyes lit up, and she suddenly smiled and said, "This person, can you guess?"
She deliberately kept it a secret and wouldn't tell.
Bai Zhiyi had no idea. She asked, "Could this person be the Jade-Faced General?"
