Chapter 678: Dancing Princess vs. East Factory Admiral 38
"I will return to the palace to reflect tomorrow. Thank you, Your Majesty, for your leniency." Quan Jiu said respectfully.
She was standing lower than him. Chu Tuo's eyes fell on her slender figure. His mind suddenly twitched and he suddenly asked:
"Does anyone else in the court know that you are a girl?"
"No one except Your Majesty."
Upon hearing this answer, Chu Tuo's first reaction was relief. Realizing his reaction, he frowned slightly and explained as if to cover up his mistake.
"You have just taken the position of Imperial Master, and your foundation is not stable. If you reveal your identity as a girl at this time, I am afraid that many ministers in the court will be dissatisfied."
"Your Majesty, I understand your intention. Until the right opportunity comes, I will act cautiously and will not reveal my identity."
………
Chu Tuo returned to the camp in a daze.
When he sat in the chair, he looked dazed and uncertain.
Is this punishment too light?
"Your Majesty, what's wrong? You look so worried. Are you still worried about the wolf pack?"
He Miaomiao sat on his lap, put her arms around his neck, and said considerately, "Your Majesty can relax with the Imperial Guards here."
In the past, Chu Tuo would respond to his beloved concubine's concern, but today he couldn't concentrate. After a while, the slender figure by the stream came back to his mind.
"Your Majesty, why are you so distracted?"
He Miaomiao held his face and stroked it with her fingertips.
Chu Tuo pinched his brows and said, "I'm a little tired today."
He pulled He Miaomiao up from her and held her hand:
"My beloved, please rest with me for a while."
………
"Host, did you deliberately let Chu Tuo discover your identity?"
The system looked at Quan Jiu's expression which changed rapidly after Chu Tuo left, and said hesitantly.
Quan Jiu walked through the layers of guards and headed towards the tent: "Yeah."
The system didn't understand: "How can you be sure that Chu Tuo will follow you to the stream?"
And it just happened to be one person.
Aren’t you afraid that the crazy woman He Miaomiao will follow you?
"I'm not sure."
Quan Jiu came up with this idea after seeing Chu Tuo's reflection in the river.
Chu Tuo thought he was hiding well, but he didn't know that his position had been exposed long ago.
Her first reaction was to put her clothes back on quickly, but halfway through, she hesitated.
She didn't want Chu Tuo to die, otherwise she would have killed him with a knife long ago.
"He must also have a taste of what it's like to be deserted by everyone."
………
After returning to the palace, as Chu Tuo said, Quan Jiu was put in solitary confinement.
Chu Tuo issued a ban, not allowing her to leave the palace, and not allowing anyone to visit her.
Xuanyuan Qinglan was holding the little girl and was stopped by the guards at the door.
"I just want to bring a message to Dr. Shen."
Xuanyuan Qinglan frowned.
The guard looked embarrassed: "Your Majesty has ordered that no one is allowed to visit."
Xuanyuan Qinglan had to return empty-handed.
As soon as he got on the carriage, he found that there was already someone sitting in it.
Seeing the man's face clearly, Xuanyuan Qinglan's breath stopped:
"Is it you?"
There was a hint of surprise in his eyes that he himself didn't even notice.
"Your Highness the Third Prince, long time no see."
Quan Jiu, dressed in the clothes of a palace maid, swaggered out of the Yangxin Palace. The gate guards did not notice anything unusual.
Xuanyuan Qinglan bowed slightly, feeling that her voice sounded somewhat familiar. He said sincerely and solemnly:
"I haven't had the chance to thank you for the medicine you gave me last time."
"Come up first and we'll talk later."
Quan Jiuzilaishu was eating lychees in the carriage.
Milk ball sat down two steps away from her, looking at her outfit with a look of surprise.
Quan Jiu raised his eyes and met his. Their eyes met, and they could each see what the other was thinking.
This is recognized.
My son is still reliable.
Quan Jiu sighed silently in his heart.
Xuanyuan Qinglan sat opposite Naituanzi, keeping a safe distance from Quan Jiu. He hesitated when he saw her in her palace dress.
"Is the girl from the palace?"
It's not that he looked down on the palace maid, but her martial arts and medical skills were too amazing, and she didn't look like someone who was willing to be a slave.
"Yes." Quan Jiu replied lazily.
Xuanyuan Qinglan pursed her lips.
Why are all the miraculous doctors of Meng Country running to the palace?
He even began to suspect that the treatment offered by the Northern Qi Palace was not good enough to attract such talents.
Xuanyuan Qinglan's eyes fell on her snow-white skin and delicate eyebrows:
"Miss, you are looking for me today, is there something?"
Quan Jiu peeled a lychee for Naituanzi: "Don't you want to cure your illness?"
Pink bubbles were rising in the bottom of the milk ball, but the face said politely: "Thank you, beautiful sister~"
Quan Jiu's lips curled slightly.
What a sycophant.
If Xuanyuan Qinglan hadn't been there, she would have kissed him hard twice.
"I don't know the girl at all, why is she willing to treat me?"
Xuanyuan Qinglan was born into the royal family after all, and had seen too many dirty things. She didn't believe that such a good thing as a pie falling from the sky would fall on her head.
Quan Jiu said calmly: "I was entrusted by someone."
Xuanyuan Qinglan showed a look of surprise, but in just a moment, he guessed what was going on:
“Could it be Doctor Shen?”
"Yes, she is my master." Quan Jiu lied without changing his expression.
Xuanyuan Qinglan suddenly realized: "So she is the apprentice of Doctor Shen, no wonder the girl has such great medical skills."
He said, why all the miraculous doctors in the world gathered in Meng State.
"Master told you to go to the courtyard in the east of the city."
Xuanyuan Qinglan asked the driver to turn the car around.
………
"Your illness won't be cured in a short time. You need acupuncture and medicinal baths for at least half a month."
The wine has been put into the wooden barrel with hot water.
Because the water temperature is too high, a layer of mist floats on the water surface.
Xuanyuan Qinglan's ears turned slightly red, and he stood straight: "Thank you very much, young lady."
"Come in."
Quan Jiu pointed to the wooden barrel.
Xuanyuan Qinglan's fingertips fell on the belt, and when she found that she had not left yet, she stopped again.
"girl?"
Quan Jiu was taking out the needle: "Hmm? Something wrong?"
It was Xuanyuan Qinglan's first time being in the same room with a woman so close, and her body movements became unnatural:
"Girl, aren't you going out?"
Quan Jiu finally understood why he was so shy like a young wife.
"I asked you to sit in it, but I didn't ask you to take off all your clothes. The pores and acupuncture points on your body will relax during the medicinal bath, and acupuncture will be most effective at this time."
Xuanyuan Qinglan was embarrassed, and her delicate face was stained with a layer of rosy clouds. Seeing her frank eyes, he felt even more narrow-minded and dirty-minded.
In the eyes of a doctor, there are only patients.
He repeated this sentence in his mind, took off his coat, and sat in the barrel.
Quan Jiu's movements were quick and accurate, and he finished the acupuncture process quickly.
"From now on, at the same time, every two days, you will come to the yard to see me."
Xuanyuan Qinglan's meridians felt warm, and his cold hands and feet felt warm again. His broken body hadn't felt this kind of feeling in more than ten years.
"Qinglan will always remember your life-saving grace. If you need anything in the future, please feel free to ask."
