1346 Marshal, things about your father
Si Shaoshuai? Si Cheng?
Why come to see her in broad daylight?
Although Feng Qingchen was confused, she did not refuse. Si Cheng came over without even saying hello, which meant that he would not accept rejection. It also showed that Si Cheng knew her movements, otherwise he would not have come so timely.
When Feng Qingchen arrived at the flower hall, she saw Si Cheng sitting on the chair like a javelin. Just by looking at his steady sitting posture, one could tell this man's background.
It had been a long time since she had seen a soldier sitting in such a posture.
Although Yuwen Yuanhua and Zhai Dongming were soldiers, they always behaved in an unruly manner in front of her, and it was impossible to tell that they were military men.
"Young Marshal Si." Feng Qingchen took the initiative to greet him as she walked over. Si Cheng nodded in response, looking frighteningly cold, totally different from that night.
Feng Qingchen raised his hand and looked at Si Cheng appraisingly, and finally came to the conclusion that this man was a two-faced person, different during the day and at night.
"I wonder what Young Marshal Si wants to talk to me about?" The other party was so cold, Feng Qingchen would not try to please him, so he asked directly.
"My father has been ordered by the Emperor to return to the capital. He is not feeling well, and I hope you can go and see him." Si Cheng said stiffly, without any courtesy.
Feng Qingchen raised an eyebrow and asked suspiciously, "Marshal Si? Isn't there an imperial physician?"
She thought that Si Cheng came for her sake, but now it seems that is not the case. This young Marshal Si does not seem to care about her health.
"The imperial physician can't cure it. Ten years ago, my father was attacked and a hidden weapon was shot into his body. When the doctor removed the hidden weapon, a small piece remained in my father's body and could not be removed. Because it didn't have much impact on the body, my father didn't care. But in the past few years, the hidden weapon has caused my father unbearable pain, so I reported to the emperor and asked for permission to return to the capital." Si Cheng said in a straight line, which was easy to convince people, but...
Feng Qingchen understood, however, that Marshal Si asked for permission to return to the capital in order to make way for Si Cheng. Both father and son held military power, so it would be strange if the Emperor did not become suspicious.
But these are not what Feng Qingchen needs to know, she just needs to see the doctor.
"If possible, I hope that Young Marshal Si can send Marshal Si to Feng Mansion. The conditions here are better." Marshal Si's injuries must be removed by surgery, and it can only be done in Feng Mansion.
Si Cheng hesitated for a moment and then nodded: "Okay. Once you are sure that he can be treated, I will send my father to your house. Now please come with me."
Si Cheng stood up, not giving Feng Qingchen any chance to refuse.
Feng Qingchen looked at Si Cheng in shock. Why did this sound like catching a suspect? This man was so cool and handsome. He really kept his word.
"Miss Feng, please..." Seeing that Feng Qingchen did not move, Si Cheng added another sentence, his slightly frowning brows showing his dissatisfaction.
"Okay, I'll go get the medicine box."
"No, I'll ask someone to get it." Si Cheng blocked Feng Qingchen's way again. Seeing Feng Qingchen's dissatisfaction, he explained, "I'm sorry to make you unhappy. I hope you can understand."
Understand what? Understand your robbery?
Seeing Si Cheng like this, Feng Qingchen had no intention of saying anything. She just nodded and went out with Si Cheng.
Si Cheng walked very fast, with big steps, and Feng Qingchen couldn't keep up at all. Feng Qingchen didn't try to compete with him, but walked slowly by herself. After just a few steps, she saw Si Cheng standing there with a dark face waiting for her. Seeing that Si Cheng looked dissatisfied, but didn't know how to start, Feng Qingchen smiled unkindly.
She had not forgotten that this man had knocked down her secret guard last time.
Why are you so arrogant? You don't even have the attitude to ask for help. You're really annoying.
When Feng Qingchen arrived at the door, Si Cheng's men were already carrying her medicine box and
Waiting for her.
Feng Qingchen took the medicine box and opened it in front of Si Cheng. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Feng Qingchen deliberately pointed the medicine box towards Si Cheng so that he could see what was inside.
Seeing Feng Qingchen open the medicine box with a snap, the man who was carrying the medicine box almost burst into tears.
It turned out that this medicine box could be opened with just a few slides and a light press, which took him a long time to do.
As soon as Si Cheng saw the man's appearance, he knew that the other party had failed and did not open Feng Qingchen's medicine box.
"Miss Feng, please." Si Cheng invited Feng Qingchen to get in the car. The servant also came forward to help Feng Qingchen carry the medicine box, but was rejected by Feng Qingchen.
Although she did not see Si Cheng's eye contact with this person, she saw the numbers on the combination lock move. No one in Feng Mansion dared to touch her medicine box. Only Si Cheng's people would touch her medicine box.
She just opened it on purpose to show it to Si Cheng. If he wanted to check her things, he could just do it openly. It was really annoying to do it secretly.
Before Feng Qingchen got on the carriage, she looked back at Si Cheng. Her eyes seemed to tell Si Cheng that she knew about his little tricks.
Si Cheng's pupils suddenly tightened, then relaxed, and he climbed onto the horse as if nothing had happened.
He did not think he had done anything wrong. Anything brought into the general's mansion had to be inspected. If it were not for the Ninth Prince's protection of Feng Qingchen, he would have directly asked Feng Qingchen to open the medicine box for him to check before entering the mansion.
The General's Mansion and the Feng Mansion are not far apart. After all, they are both residences of military generals, and the courtyards are just on the street.
The layout of the General's Mansion was completely different from that of the Feng Mansion, and also different from that of Prince Su's Mansion. The General's Mansion exuded an air of majesty, and the yard was completely empty, with no rockery or pavilions at all. The open space was divided into training grounds, and when Feng Qingchen stepped in, he thought he had arrived at a military academy.
Feng Qingchen was not unfamiliar with this kind of atmosphere. She was not affected by the majesty of the General's Mansion at all. She followed Si Cheng calmly, which shocked Si Cheng.
Although he had looked up Feng Qingchen's past, what was written on paper was far less shocking than what he saw with his own eyes. Si Cheng seemed to understand why the Ninth Prince fell in love with this woman.
She has a heart that is no less than that of a man.
When Feng Qingchen and Si Cheng arrived at the main courtyard, they saw Marshal Si in casual clothes sitting in the first seat. Marshal Si looked rather rough and a little fat, not like Si Cheng at all.
Although Marshal Si was in a state of frailty, the murderous aura he exuded could not be ignored. Feng Qingchen knew at a glance that this was a man with his hands stained with blood, and his achievements were made up of piles of corpses.
The moment their eyes met, Feng Qingchen felt the momentum that the other party deliberately released. Feng Qingchen's eyes widened a little, and then turned away as if nothing had happened, and bowed slightly: "Marshal."
"Good. You are worthy of being the daughter of a general." Marshal Si praised her loudly, and his aura became more restrained, looking like an ordinary old man.
Feng Qingchen smiled without comment, secretly cursing these people in her heart for being so arrogant. They were clearly looking for her for medical treatment, but they acted so arrogantly. They were clearly trying to intimidate her, but they even said it was a test for her.
She is a doctor, not the daughter-in-law of the Si family. Her character has nothing to do with the Si family.
Of course, although she had the thought, Feng Qingchen didn't dare to say it out loud. She could only keep smiling, explain her purpose, and ask Marshal Si to get ready because she was going to start the inspection.
As a result, the emperor was not in a hurry to kill the eunuch. Marshal Si raised his hand and signaled Feng Qingchen not to open the medicine box first: "My illness is not urgent, I have something to tell you."
"Marshal, your health is more important." Feng Qingchen paused, but did not stop as Marshal Si said. Instead, he asked for advice, hoping that Marshal Si could change.
Marshal Si smiled slightly and said, "Do we have to wait for things related to your father?"
