Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 906 Ziqiu’s entrustment

This was what Li Yiwei had planned. He had no intention of letting Mr. Chen return to Jiangnan properly.

Ji Wuyan knew this, and Ning Xiuyuan also knew it, so they all knew that they could not enter this palace.

However, under the imperial power, who can say to avoid it? Ji Wuyan thought for a moment, then turned around and told Ziqiu, "Go and get my set of silver needles...and the small scarlet porcelain vase in my cabinet."

Ziqiu was shocked, "Girl?!"

"What is that?" Ning Xiuyuan saw Zi Qiu's expression and knew that this matter was not simple. He had some guesses in his heart, but he still pretended not to know and asked, "Does Ning Ning want to accompany Mr. Chen into the palace? ?”

He asked carefully, but Ji Wuyan didn't even cover up. He stood up, dusted off his skirt, and said calmly, "Mr. Chen is not going... I will go. Didn't Li Yiwei want this magical elixir? Just deliver it." It doesn’t make any difference whether Mr. Chen sends it or I send it.”

She said it calmly, but Ning Xiuyuan didn't believe a single word - he still didn't know if there was a second pill for this medicine? He frowned and shook his head, "Ning Ning, don't be reckless. What medical skills do you know? If something goes wrong, I won't be able to protect you."

She raised her head to look at him, her dark eyes clean without any impurities. She asked him calmly, "Then if something goes wrong with Mr. Chen, can you protect him?"

Ning Xiuyuan frowned and said nothing.

Ziqiu took out the silver needle and came out. Seeing that something was wrong in the atmosphere, she stopped her steps and stood carefully behind Ji Wuyan. She put the silver needle and the porcelain bottle in her hands and didn't know for a moment whether to hand it out or put it back - although she hoped it was put it back. The girl does know some acupuncture techniques and learned from Mr. Chen in the early years, but the other party is the emperor after all! What's more, what's in that porcelain vase is...

"Give it to me." Ji Wuyan spread his hands back.

Ziqiu grasped the thing in his hand but did not hand it out. He just hesitated and said, "Can I hold it for you, my slave?" If she were with you... Although it didn't seem to be of much use, instead of staying at home and waiting in fear, It would be better to stay with him for peace of mind. Even if you are on tenterhooks, you can always feel at ease... Although this is an odd thing to say, it is true.

Ji Wuyan didn't give in, and took back his open hand, and said quietly, "No need. You stay here, and if anyone comes looking for me, just say I'm out, and don't talk about it with anyone."

"girl……"

"obedient."

Ziqiu pursed his lips, and reluctantly handed over all the porcelain bottles with silver needles in his hand. He frowned and whispered, "Girl, you have to be careful no matter what. The palace is not as convenient as the outside. If... If... if this slave says it is true..."

As he spoke, his voice was choked with sobs. "If" for a long time, he didn't dare to say the next words. He only continued to explain intermittently, "If it's true... the girl will escape unscathed no matter what. Let's keep the green mountains here, and we won't be afraid of running out of firewood." …”

Ji Wuyan patted her head and said in a gentle voice, "Okay, I understand." He originally wanted to say some words of comfort, but he was so worried that even his smile looked weak. For a moment, he didn't even know how to persuade her. Then he patted her head again and whispered, "Don't worry, just stay at home and wait for me to come back." Ziqiu slowly took half a step back, nodded, and watched Ji Wuyan go down the stairs and walk out. Go, catch up two more steps, stand on the steps and suddenly call, "Third Master!"

Ning Xiuyuan stopped and looked back, and saw Zi Qiu bowing and bowing politely, "Third Master, my girl is used to idleness in the south of the Yangtze River. She doesn't understand the rules in the palace. Please take good care of the girl, Third Master." After saying that, he bowed again, politely and seriously. There was no smile on his childish face, and the corners of his mouth were pursed as if he had changed his mind.

The little girl rarely gives such a big gesture.

Ning Xiuyuan looked at her, nodded, and promised quietly, "Don't worry, I will."

At the same time, the secret guard sent the news he had just received to Shangguan Chu. Brother Shangguan was also in a bad mood. He lowered his lips and opened his eyes casually, and his fingertips suddenly clenched tightly. After a long while, he bit his back teeth and cursed in a low voice, "This damn old man!"

The secret guard understood immediately - the only person who could make his master curse "Damn old man" in such a tone of hatred, it was the old man from Shangguan family. The grandson and grandson had some problems with each other since they were young. The old man valued rules and set many rules, but the eldest grandson was weird since he was a child. He was obedient in small things, but extremely deviant in big things. Things like going into business, training secret guards, changing your name and surname into your mother's family tree...everything makes the old man angry to death.

So much so that in the past two years, the old man and the young man even felt like the king was missing.

The secret guard lowered his head and held his breath, waiting for the other party's instructions. Only Shangguan Chu clutched the crumpled message and gritted his teeth for a long time. He waved his hand and asked again, "Is the girl in the mansion?"

"When my subordinates came over, they were watching the girl and the third master of the Ning family going to the door. They looked like they were about to go out."

He raised his eyebrows slightly and secretly thought that these two people had reconciled? When did the little girl become so easy to coax? Shangguan Chu curled his lips, but didn't say anything. He just waved his hand and let people go down. He grabbed the piece of paper and went to find the old lady.

……

The carriage did not stop at the palace gate and went straight to the emperor's palace.

Ji Wuyan got off the carriage without squinting. He only held up the hem of his skirt and walked up the steps into the palace. Li Yiwei was not there, and there were only three or five imperial doctors surrounding the emperor in the inner palace, checking his pulse and exchanging glances while shaking their heads helplessly. From Ji Wuyan's point of view, he could not see the emperor's current complexion, but could only hear a particularly weak and heavy snoring.

That was not the sound of a normal human being.

Ji Wuyan frowned slightly, and Zhang Dexian at the side had already raised his hand to lead people in, "Miss Ji, please."

The imperial doctors in the room all turned around, raised their hands in greeting, opened their mouths to greet each other, and only blurted out the words they swallowed when they saw Ji Wuyan, even their expressions were fixed on their faces, and they stretched their necks. Looking around, they looked at each other dumbfounded: Where is the miracle doctor? The miracle doctor didn't come? Could it be that the miracle doctor is still showing off? You are so brave!

If the miracle doctor doesn't come, what does it mean that only such a little girl comes? I've never heard that the girls from the Ji family have great medical skills before?
Even Dr. Chen was frightened when he saw it - in his understanding, Ji Wuyan didn't have any medical skills. Even if Miss Shen came, she would have more hope than Miss Ji, or she might as well just leave the city and go back. In Jiangnan, the prince may not really pursue him. Now that Mr. Chen is not here, but Miss Ji is here, what if the king of the county launches an attack?
Doctor Chen was worried, so he stepped forward and said, "Miss Ji is here? Mr. Chen... Where is Mr. Chen?"
