Wishful Things

"Thank you, Ms. Xu, Qiao." Qiao Bing put down the teacup, raised her hand and saluted Xu Mingyi gratefully.

Even though his wife had never been poisoned, but he escaped from the palace this time, there is no guarantee that the emperor would not anger his wife and children. It would be great if he could get the government's promise of protection.

"Princess Qiao doesn't need to thank you." Xu Mingyi said: "It's just that it's not suitable for Imperial Physician Qiao to meet Mr. and Mrs. Qiao for a short time, and we need to avoid the limelight—"

No need to think about it, it is known that the emperor will make people pay more attention to Qiao's mother and son.

Just pay attention, and if there is any move that is unfavorable to the mother and son of the Qiao family, she will not stand idly by.

Qiao Bing nodded: "Yes, I understand."

Meeting at this time is destined to cause trouble for his wife and children, as well as trouble for the person who rescued him.

Seeing that his face was weak, Xu Mingyi said: "Physician Qiao rest here first, have some tea and rice. Later, I will come with a friend to inquire about old things from Physician Qiao."

Hearing the word 'old affairs', Qiao Bing was not too surprised. After a moment of silence, he smiled wryly and said, "Miss Lao Xu took the trouble to arrange it—but, Qiao is no longer an imperial doctor. There is no need to mention it any more.”

Xu Mingyi stood up from his chair and said, "Then let's call him Doctor Qiao."

Always have a name.

Doctor Joe...

There are too many complicated emotions in Qiao Bing's half-down eyes.

A doctor is a doctor who heals diseases and saves lives, but what he has done is no longer worthy of this title.

"Dr. Qiao has an old illness, so he must know which medicines are needed to treat it. Someone will come to deliver food later, and Dr. Qiao will write a prescription for him."

Regardless of other things for the time being, it was extremely difficult to keep this life and come out of the palace, so one should take care of one's health.

Qiao Bing responded and thanked the girl again.

Xu Mingyi took Ah Zhu and left the dark room.

"Miss Xu, can you sit upstairs and wait for my son to come over?" Shou Ming asked in a soft voice while leading him out of the back hall.

Xu Mingyi raised his eyes and looked in the direction of the front hall. The lights in the lobby and the second floor were turned off.

When she went upstairs at this time, it was bound to be a lot of trouble. The closed teahouse suddenly turned on the lights, which might attract people's attention, and the city is destined not to be too peaceful tonight.

"Just sit here for a while." She walked towards a gazebo in the backyard.

A paper lantern hangs under the eaves of the pavilion, casting a gentle orange light, and the roses crawling on the flower stand outside the pavilion bloom quietly in the night, with a faint fragrance wafting with the gentle night wind.

Shouming made a pot of tea and brought it over, along with some snacks and fruits.

As soon as he returned to the back hall with the tray in his hands, he saw a man in short brown clothes waiting there, and said to him, "Shou Ming, someone knocked on the door from behind, saying that he recognized you, and asked you to see him."

While the man was speaking, he glanced at the direction of the gazebo—now he thinks chopping firewood in the tea house is pretty good, but every time Miss Xu comes over, he always feels uneasy and dare not appear in front of her.

After hearing this, Shou Ming hurried to go.

After opening the back door, seeing the tall man waiting outside, he couldn't help being slightly surprised: "Uncle Zhu? Are you back?"

Zhu Xiu nodded, "Yes", and asked, "Is my girl here?"

After entering the city, he first rushed back to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion. He heard that the girl was not in the mansion, so he came here - if she was not here, then he would not look for it. to other specific places.

Shou Ming nodded: "Yes!"

Saying that, she turned sideways to get out of the way, Zhu Xiu raised her foot and stepped over the threshold, and Shou Ming closed the door again.

"Uncle Zhu is looking at the dusty people, did he just return to Beijing?"

"Um."

Shou Ming asked casually again: "I don't know if Miss Ah Kui came back with her?"

Zhu Xiu shook her head: "No."

He hastened to deliver the letter to the girl first, wouldn't it delay things with a little girl.

didn't come back...

Shou Ming was a little disappointed, but the question he was most concerned about was: "Is Aoi girl safe?"

"..." Zhu Xiu slowed down a little, and turned to look at the young man.

He just got off the horse, what did he do wrong, how did he come up and tell him all this?

"Peace." Zhu Xiu continued to walk forward.

"That's good..." Shou Ming laughed "Hey" and asked again: "How is General Xu?"

Zhu Xiu looked at him again: "It's all good."

——There is no need to deliberately bring the general as a cover, so that it seems that he can't see the little thought of the young man wanting to marry a wife.

Shou Ming quickly brought him to the gazebo in the backyard.

"Uncle Zhu!"

Seeing the people who came outside the pavilion, Xu Mingyi was a little surprised, and hurriedly got up and left the pavilion.

Seeing her father coming back suddenly, Ah Zhu couldn't help being stunned.

"girl."

Zhu Xiu raised his hand to salute, and said: "The poison on the old man's body has been cured, and he is now on his way back to Beijing with the army, so I asked me to rush back to report to the girl first."

Xu Mingyi's eyes were filled with joy in an instant—her grandfather is fine!

Very good!

"This is a letter from the young master." Zhu Xiu took out the letter from his arms and handed it over with both hands.

As for why he reported the letter verbally, it was necessary to write another letter for the girl to read—the young master has written everything, so he can't tear it up.

Xu Mingyi's men tore open the envelope very quickly, took out the letter paper, and looked at it under the dim light. The smile on his face grew a little bit, and he let out a long sigh of relief: "It's good that grandpa escapes safely!"

This time, her grandfather's safety is even more important to her than the future survival of the entire Xu family - only when the whole family is complete can they talk about other things.

As long as her grandfather is fine, she is not afraid of the rest!

She deliberately wanted to ask about what happened in Dongyuan City, but seeing Zhu Xiu's face showing a bit of support, she must have been rushing all the way to report the letter and never had a good rest, but seeing that she was not in the mansion, she immediately rushed I found it here, obviously wanting her to hear the good news earlier——

Thinking of this, Xu Mingyi smiled and said: "Uncle Zhu, let's go back and rest first, we will talk about other things in detail tomorrow."

As long as he was sure that his grandfather was safe, the rest would naturally be trivial, and he was not in a hurry.

And Ming Shi also roughly explained what happened in the letter, and she knew it well.

Zhu Xiu responded "Yes" and glanced at her daughter. The father and daughter looked at each other and nodded, as if they were in an ordinary relationship of colleagues.

After Zhu Xiu left, Xu Mingyi stood under the pavilion and read her brother's letter with the corners of her mouth bent. She hadn't been so relaxed like this for a long time. Earlier, she was worried whether her grandfather would be poisoned, and then worried whether the antidote would be delivered in time. Come on, will there be any other mistakes——

Now, all these worries have finally dissipated.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps came to my ears.

Subconsciously looking up, I saw a young man in a black robe passing through the back hall and striding down the stone steps.

Seeing him, the smile in Xu Mingyi's eyes suddenly became wider, raised the hand holding the letter, waved it, and shouted happily at him: "Wu Chao! Here!"
