In a palace inside the palace, many people were standing around the Fifth Prince Qiu Shaoyuan who had fainted on the bed. Each person had a different expression on their face. One of the women had a face full of anxiety and panic.
Mu Ci looked at the heroine Gong Rong, who had a worried look on her face and a hint of affection in her eyes, and felt that the plot had really collapsed.
However, according to the system, as a tasker, you don't need to pay too much attention to the development of the plot. The most important core of the mission is still the male protagonist.
Many important officials were waiting outside the palace. The emperor also frowned from beginning to end, and was worried about the current situation. After all, he had always been optimistic about the fifth son Qiu Shaoyuan. Apart from the future heir, he still liked this son very much.
Almost all the doctors in the palace were here, but no good news came from them, which made him extremely uneasy.
"Your Majesty, I am sorry that I can't do anything. Although the sword wound on the Fifth Prince's chest is not serious, the poison tempered on the sword is really, I have never heard of it before!"
"Your Majesty, spare my life!"
"Your Majesty, spare my life!"
“…”
"Then Old Five's poison is no longer effective! Get out of my way!" The emperor took a few steps forward and looked at Qiu Shaoyuan, whose face was pale and lips were purple, with a look of pity in his heart.
"Your Majesty, Bai may be able to give it a try!"
Suddenly, a voice rang out in an extremely depressing atmosphere.
Bai Qingchen was dressed in white, with a young and handsome face. His eyes and eyebrows showed a romantic and unrestrained look. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he was waving a folding fan, looking quite nonchalant.
It always makes people feel... unreliable!
The emperor stood up suddenly and looked over, only to find that it was Bai Qingchen! His heart, which had been soaring high, suddenly dropped sharply.
He knew a little about Bai Qingchen. After all, he and Xiao Shi practiced martial arts in the same place. Although the martial arts there were well-known, he had never heard that medicine was taught there.
Some doctors nearby saw this young man who suddenly appeared and felt greatly insulted. They, the old veterans, were powerless against this poison, so how could this young man who suddenly appeared from nowhere say such nonsense!
"This is the Fifth Prince, you can't just try your hand at him!"
"What nonsense!"
A group of doctors gathered together and talked to each other. In short, they all distrusted Bai Qingchen. The emperor on the side also didn't quite believe in Bai Qingchen's medical skills. He had never heard that Bai Qingchen knew medicine.
Seeing everyone's attitude, Bai Qingchen suddenly stopped talking. He stood aside and said nothing. Since no one dared to give him a chance, there was no need for him to move forward shamelessly.
Mu Ci was surprised for a moment. In fact, she had some understanding of Bai Qingchen.
There are some vague memories about Bai Qingchen's childhood. He seemed to like fiddling with some strange herbal plants and other things since he was a child. However, because their master never liked him to do these things, he never showed them to others easily.
Mu Ci thought of the star-like eyes he saw in the tavern that day, and felt that perhaps Bai Qingchen was really capable.
"Father, I think it's worth a try!" Mu Ci suddenly said calmly.
Wen Xiuqi was behind him and looked at him in surprise.
When the emperor heard her say this, he felt uneasy.
"Xiao Shi, are his medical skills really good?" asked the emperor.
He actually had no idea what to do now. Old Five was lying on the bed, and Doctor Yu beside him didn't have any idea what to do.
Mu Ci thought for a moment before saying, "Father, I can't guarantee that Master Bai's medical skills can cure Fifth Brother's poison, but Fifth Brother's condition cannot wait, so maybe there will be a turn for the better if we let Master Bai take a look."
After that, he added, "Moreover, the palace doctors stay in the palace all year round, and they may not have seen some strange and bizarre poisons. Mr. Bai is away from home all year round, so he may have some experience with some rare poisons."
Although the doctors were somewhat indignant about Mu Ci's words, they did not dare to say anything because of her reputation.
The emperor hesitated again and again, and as he watched the Fifth Prince's face on the bed turn increasingly pale, he finally made a decision with a frown on his face.
"Then let's look at Master Lao Bai!" The emperor would not expose the relationship between Bai Qingchen and Mu Ci as master and disciple in front of so many people.
Bai Qingchen didn't care about their powerless act just now. He just glanced at Mu Ci intentionally or unintentionally when passing by her, and raised the corner of his lips imperceptibly. Then he slowly walked to Qiu Shaoyuan's bed, briefly checked his symptoms of poisoning, and then used his internal force to check his specific condition.
Then he said, "If I am not mistaken, the poison that the Fifth Prince was poisoned with this time is very likely from the Western Regions, Wolf Fire."
When the emperor heard what he said, his face lit up and he asked, "Does Mr. Bai have the ability to neutralize this poison?"
Bai Qingchen said, "I encountered this poison once before, so I can give it a try."
What he didn't say was that this poison was generally exclusive to the Demon Cult, but he knew what it meant to say this.
"That's great! Old Five is finally saved! If Master Bai needs any herbs, just let me know. I will have them prepared!"
After a night of treatment, the poison of the Fifth Prince Qiu Shaoyuan was finally slowly dissolved, and almost everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The emperor was going to reward Bai Qingchen generously, but Bai Qingchen refused, saying that he just wanted to stay in the princess's mansion for a while and would leave soon. The emperor was full of regret, but specifically instructed Mu Ci to take good care of her senior brother.
"Junior sister, why don't you thank me, your senior brother, in person?" Bai Qingchen waved a folding fan with a teasing look on his face.
"Thank you so much!" Mu Ci readily accepted the suggestion.
"..." A little unhappy.
She witnessed Bai Qingchen's diagnosis and treatment process one by one. Perhaps, he could also cure Wen Xiuqi's cold poison!
"Little Junior Sister, what are you still standing there for? Let's go back home! Things here have come to an end. His Majesty specifically asked you to take good care of me. Remember to send someone to prepare good wine, good food and good meat for me in advance. I, your senior brother, need to replenish my physical strength!"
Bai Qingchen completely ignored Wen Xiuqi who was standing there without saying a word. He spoke to Mu Ci with a natural and familiar tone.
He was originally quite interested in Wen Xiuqi, the brilliant and talented prince of Yongning Marquis of Qingxia Country. He wanted to see just how brilliant and talented he was. However, after seeing him in person, he was quite disappointed. It was not that Wen Xiuqi's talent and temperament were inconsistent with the legend, but he just felt dislike for him from the bottom of his heart.
Pure dislike, especially when seeing his pair of black eyes that showed no concealment of hostility.
Of course, he also didn't like the fact that this guy always appeared around Mu Ci. Bai Qingchen attributed this feeling to the fact that the cabbages he watched grow up should not be eaten by pigs.
"I'll take you back." Wen Xiuqi said lightly from the side.
He spoke very naturally, even omitting the honorifics and self-introductions.
Mu Ci heard what he said, and she did not object. She thought that if Bai Qingchen and Wen Xiuqi could meet each other in advance, they could get to know each other, which would be helpful for the progress of treating the cold poison in the future. Besides, isn't Bai Qingchen quite interested in Wen Xiuqi?
So, in the end, Mu Ci got on Wen Xiuqi's carriage smoothly, along with Bai Qingchen who came with her.
In the darkness of night, a low-key yet noble carriage was speeding along the street.
Inside the carriage, three people were sitting in a triangular opposition.
Mu Ci, who had the most distinguished status, sat in the middle, while Wen Xiuqi and Bai Qingchen sat on both sides, one on each side, but their auras were completely different from each other.
Mu Ci felt something was wrong, but he didn't know what was going on.
Bai Qingchen slightly raised his lips at this moment, but he felt like he was covered in thorns, and his smile was somewhat dangerous. Wen Xiuqi, who was always gentle, also had a rare cold face, and his black eyes were full of complex colors, coldness and dense anger.
"Would you two like to introduce each other?" Mu Ci tried to ease the awkward atmosphere.
"No need!" they said in unison.
“……”Okay, very good!
Two fickle men!
The atmosphere among the three was still in an awkward atmosphere.
After a long time, the carriage suddenly shook violently, causing the people inside to become unsteady. Mu Ci was thinking about Han Du and almost fell forward without noticing.
Wen Xiuqi quickly stabilized her body, and took Mu Ci into his arms, almost wrapping the entire Mu Ci in his arms.
Mu Ci pressed against Wen Xiuqi's chest, and she could even clearly hear the violent beating of his heart. Her hands were on Wen Xiuqi's legs, and she was lying on him.
“……” What the hell! What a shameful posture.
Mu Ci was embarrassed and wanted to struggle, but Wen Xiuqi slapped him, not too hard or too lightly, and then he said calmly: "This road is not easy to walk on. If you don't want to be thrown out later, just be quiet."
He was very close to her. When Wen Xiuqi said this, his breath almost hit Mu Ci's neck. The light medicinal scent that always lingered on his body was even stronger at this moment.
Mu Ci felt a little dizzy, not in a physiological way. She was just startled by Wen Xiuqi's unexpected and rare intimate gesture. Feeling the restrained hands holding her, she really couldn't move even if she wanted to.
grass!
Wen Xiuqi felt the rare obedience of the person in his arms, and suddenly there was a sense of satisfaction he had never felt before. Even the anger he had felt at the banquet tonight had almost disappeared. He smiled faintly, and his eyes and eyebrows became more lively.
The carriage was large and spacious enough. Even though Wen Xiuqi was accompanied by Mu Ci, they were still far away from Bai Qingchen.
Bai Qingchen's martial arts skills were not weak. In fact, he had even stretched out his hand faster than Wen Xiuqi just now. However, just as he stretched out his hand, something flashed through his mind and he withdrew his hand in time.
But at this moment, he looked at the faint smile on Wen Xiuqi's lips in front of him, and the strong possessiveness hidden in his eyes when he looked at his little junior sister, and suddenly felt extremely dazzling, and even regretted his action of pulling his hand back just now.
Bai Qingchen was secretly upset, but he remained expressionless, still smiling uninhibitedly, but that smile did not reach his eyes, and was filled with a bit of irritability and coldness.
