The date of departure was set to be three days later. Su Xiaoxiao had spent almost three days in the Princess’s Residence teaching the young Prince the Five Animal Play. The young Prince was talented and learned it well. It didn’t matter if he didn’t know. Anyvvay, if Moxie learned it, he could slowly teach him later.
“I know how to do it!” Yuwen Xin said excitedly. Su Xiaoxiao praised, “The young Princess is really amazing.”
The young Princess said, “Call me Xin’er from now on.”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “Okay.”
Yuwen Xi had contributed to the capture of the a.s.sa.s.sin, and her restriction was lifted by the Western Jin emperor. The people who came to visit almost broke the threshold of the Princess’s Residence.
Yuwen Xin was not happy to have regained what she had lost. Instead, she said calmly and wisely, “When I was imprisoned, none of them came to look for me. Now that my mother has made a comeback, all of them are rushing over. I don’t care!”
An unforeseen event made the little girl grow a lot.
However, if she grew up a little more, it would not be difficult for her to discover that some superficial things still had to be maintained, but she did not have to give up her sincerity.
It didn’t matter. She was still young and could slowly learn in the future.
Su Xiaoxiao taught Yuwen Yi the Five Animal Play. “Have you learned it?”
Yuwen Yi said, “Will you stay if you haven’t learned it?”
Su Xiaoxiao was stunned.
She looked into his doe-like innocent eyes and was momentarily unable to answer.
Yuwen Yi suddenly smiled. “I was teasing you. I’ve learned it.”
The young man had some potential to be scheming.
“Remember to take the medicine I gave you every day. One packet a day. Take it with warm water. You can take it earlier or later.”
“I’ll remember that.”
Su Xiaoxiao explained some things to take note of and left a booklet.
Before leaving, Yuwen Yi stopped her and said solemnly in an adult tone that he had not used in the past few days, “Qin Su, when I recover, I’ll go to the Great Zhou to look for you.”
Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “Okay, I’ll wait for you.”
After leaving the Princess’s Residence, Su Xiaoxiao was about to get into the carriage when she saw a familiar figure at the door.
He smiled and bowed to her. “Madam Wei.”
Su Xiaoxiao nodded in return. “Eunuch He, what brings you here?”
He smiled amiably and said, “Madam Wei, you’re too polite. I’m here on His
Majesty’s orders to pay for Mr. Zhuge’s consultation.”
His address had already changed to refer to a former servant.
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t seem to notice the change in his att.i.tude and asked curiously, “Didn’t you already pay?
“That’s the deposit.” He glanced at the young eunuch beside him. The young eunuch carried two more brocade boxes forward.
Eunuch He opened the box and a golden light rushed towards him, almost blinding him.
It was obvious that the two boxes today were larger.
Did the Western Jin Emperor really not guess that Zhuge Qing was Wei Qing, or did he still keep his promise to pay her a high consultation fee?
An emperor’s heart was like a needle in the sea. Su Xiaoxiao didn’t think about the emperor’s thoughts and accepted it generously. “Thank His Majesty for me.”
Eunuch He smiled and said, “His Majesty asked me to pa.s.s on a message.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Please tell me.”
Eunuch He said seriously, “Please treat him.”
The news that Zhuge Qing was leaving the West Capital to find medicine quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys.
“He’s going with Physician Qin.”
“Who’s Physician Qin?”
“You haven’t even heard of Physician Qin? How ignorant! She’s the divine physician of the Great Zhou and General Wei’s new wife. She was the one who treated the young Royal Prince’s smallpox and even nursed his body. I heard that the young Royal Prince can even walk now.”
“That powerful?”
“Why didn’t Mr. Zhuge ask her to treat him?”
The matter at the banquet was sealed by the Western Jin emperor and did not spread among the people. Zhuge Qing was still Zhuge Qing, the most respected teacher in the hearts of the people of the West Capital. They hoped that he would recover.
On the day they set off, a strong wind blew in Western Jin, rustling the curtain of the carriage.
The group met at the West Capital Courier Station.
Yuwen Huai, Yuwen Xi, Yuwen Lin, and the others came to send him off.
Yuwen Xin hugged Wuhu and cried again.. With tears in her eyes, she pulled Su Xiaoxiao’s arm and cried, “Can’t you stay for a few more days before leaving… The West Capital is so big… I haven’t even had the time to bring you around… You’re either treating my brother… or someone else… And going to the palace for a banquet… You didn’t play well…”
