General, your wife has gone to deliver another calf for your horse.

"Your Highness, what's going on? This...this..." Zhou Xing was completely dumbfounded.

Xuan Ting gritted his teeth, lifted the carriage curtain, and jumped down.

"Your Highness! Your Highness! Why are you so angry? This...this person was indeed escorted here by the Empress Dowager's people. Look, there are also people from the Grand Empress Dowager's people following behind. What on earth is going on?"

Xuan Ting's chest heaved with anger, and he pointed at Zhou Xing for a long while before finally saying, "You! You're quite something!"

Having said that, Xuan Ting flicked his sleeves and immediately led his men back to his carriage: "Let's go!"

As the once-in-a-lifetime Sixth Prince's carriage disappeared from sight, Zhou Xing was dumbfounded: "Why? Why did this happen?"

Inside the carriage, Zhao Yuniang turned deathly pale when she heard them call her "Your Highness." She couldn't utter a word for a long time.

The guards beside Zhou Xing exchanged bewildered glances: "Sir, weren't we supposed to be receiving a distinguished guest?"

Zhou Xing has been flattering people for so many years, but he's never managed to flatter them enough to offend anyone.

He glanced at the carriage again and immediately frowned: "Send them back!"

He then beckoned to the attendants behind him, "You lot, come with me. Quickly follow His Highness's carriage and see who the Sixth Prince is picking up this time!"

……

"Why not use my gold-plated carriage?"

At the entrance of the Duke's mansion, Chi Heng frowned deeply as he looked at the carriage that had already been prepared.

“Master, your gilded carriage was a gift from the Emperor, decorated with dragons and phoenixes, and is mostly used by men. Would it be inappropriate to use it to pick up Physician Jiang?”

Sun Wen, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but offer a word of advice, saying, "This carriage is already quite luxurious. The floor inside is covered with carpets that were tributes from Persia, and the luminous pearls hanging in the four corners are all priceless."

Chi Heng stroked his chin and said with dissatisfaction, "It's still not grand enough."

Sun Yat-sen: "The carriage is made of the finest materials, both inside and out. This year, we only received two carpets from Persia as tribute, which you used to pave the carriage floor. If this carriage were any better, it wouldn't be able to go out. It can't be larger than the carriages in the palace, can it?"

Sun Wu chimed in from the side, "Master, our carriage is so bright it'll blind everyone who goes out."

Chi Heng glanced at Sun Wu: "Really?"

Sun Wu nodded: "Yes, really, I've never seen such a wealthy city."

Has anyone ever seen a carriage adorned with pearls strung together as pendants?

Sun Wu even secretly planned to steal two strings of them later and report them lost.

Chi Heng replied, "Then let's use this one. You all need to be careful and thoughtful. Li Rong finally got a wife, and now he's behaving like this. We should let your wife see our family's resources and make sure she doesn't feel like she's lost out by marrying A Rong."

Sun Wen and Sun Wu exchanged a glance, and to be honest, they thought it was really unnecessary.

Would the divine healer worshipped by Canglin City care about this?
Furthermore, when Doctor Jiang met the general, it seemed that the general had nothing at all.
Is it really okay to do this now?

However, I suppose Doctor Jiang is magnanimous, after all, he has never stooped to the level of their Duke.

Fortunately, they both nodded: "Yes, yes, you're right."

Chi Heng lamented, "What a pity, the room I arranged is no longer needed. Otherwise, if my sister-in-law stayed there, I would have made sure she was comfortable. Ah Rong is really something. When I went to the Great Wilderness, my sister-in-law entertained me, so isn't it normal for me to entertain her now? But he insisted on stopping me and made such a cramped place that even a dog wouldn't want to stay in." Sun Wen and Sun Wu exchanged a glance, inexplicably recalling the room their Duke had arranged before.

For a moment, I was secretly relieved that Dr. Jiang wasn't staying here.

Otherwise, people might think that their Duke is using his power to oppress others.

Who would be so kind as to put famous swords and knives in someone else's guest room?

Thinking this, Sun Wen looked up and saw his master placing a long whip inlaid with a huge piece of Hetian jade in front of the carriage. Sun Wen held back for a while, but finally couldn't help but carefully advise, "Master, aren't we being too ostentatious? The Regent is watching us closely."

Chi Heng didn't care much: "No need to worry about it. A Rong said that Xiao Yuanshan already knows anyway, so why bother with him? Let's go pick them up ourselves! What I, Chi Heng, want to give to my sister-in-law will definitely be the best, even better than what Li Rong gave her!!"

Sun Wen: "What are you comparing yourself to Dr. Jiang's husband for?!"

Before he could finish speaking, Chi Heng slapped Sun Wen on the head.

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and get going!"

Sun Wen rubbed his head, his forehead covered in black lines.

He wondered when his master had developed this habit of patting people on the head. Did he mistake him for Chen Shu?
However, thinking that once Doctor Jiang was brought back, Chen Shu would also be back, and once he returned, his master would probably stop targeting him, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He immediately instructed the coachman beside him, "Hurry up!"

……

"Why is the carriage so slow? Faster! Faster!"

On Zhuque Street, the Magpie Doctor sat in his carriage, fidgeting nervously as if his bottom was on fire, peeking out from the curtain here and there, looking completely unsettled.

Lord Wang Yong was traveling with him. His official robes were wrinkled from the jostling. He irritably threw down the dossier he hadn't read a single word of and stuffed a pastry into the hands of Physician Que: "Old Physician Que, please calm down! The carriage runs on the ground, not in the sky!"

Doctor Que sat down slightly, took a bite subconsciously, and then glared at Wang Yong beside him: "What do you know? Every minute we're late in picking up the Emperor puts him in greater danger!"

Wang Yong frowned deeply: "Do you really think that Physician Jiang can cure the Emperor's chronic illness?"

The magpie doctor spat, tossed aside the cloyingly sweet candy, and then picked up his teacup and gulped down a large cup. He then exhaled and said, "If she can't do it, there's no one else in the world I can find. In short, I don't know about others, but I'm completely out of options!"

As he said this, he slumped against the car window, his legs swinging restlessly back and forth.

Hearing him say this, Wang Yong's expression also turned sour, and after a long while he finally let out a sigh: "I hope Doctor Jiang really does have a way to turn things around."

But the thought of that woman made him uneasy.

If I remember correctly, that person didn't have a very good temper.

Commander Liu dealt with them all back then, but thankfully, this old man didn't go to the front.

The more he thought about it, the more uncertain he became. He couldn't help but nudge the arm of the Divine Physician Que beside him: "Elder Que, this time we summoned her directly to the capital. With her temper, won't she get angry? Can we really control her? What do you think, should we ask the Emperor for another imperial decree?"

After saying this, he saw the divine physician, Dr. Que, looking at him with a deep frown.
Lord Wang Yong swallowed hard. "Ahem, that's true. She's just a little woman; what big trouble could she possibly cause? I'm not afraid of her, I'm just worried about causing delays."
"You have a point."

Before Lord Wang could finish speaking, Physician Que agreed wholeheartedly. The next second, however, he gave Lord Wang a disapproving glance:

"Why didn't you say so sooner? His Majesty is unwell today; I don't know if he's asleep or not." Without further ado, she immediately ordered someone to hurry back and report, and if the Emperor was awake, to quickly obtain an imperial edict. (End of Chapter)
