Don't disturb me, I won't be a concubine

When Dong Jiafu heard the word "plague" from Cui Yaying, she couldn't help but think of the blood stain that Cui Qi Yan helped her block when Daniu died.

Is he really infected?

But before they returned to Beijing, in order to prevent this from happening, Chen Yuanshi had already calculated that he would wait until the incubation period of the plague was over before writing the memorial to the emperor. That incident happened even earlier, and if Cui Qiyan was really infected, he should have had an attack before returning to Beijing.

However, nothing is absolute in this world, after all, everyone's physique is different.

He was infected with the plague and was afraid of infecting others, so he found a place to isolate himself and didn't see anyone. This was indeed Cui Qi Yan's style.

Dong Jiafu couldn't help but worry. She didn't know how he was doing now, and whether the doctor Ji Bai found could cure the plague?

Why didn't Cui Qi Yan let Ji Bai come to her and the master? They have the most experience in this.

Dong Jiafu thought a lot for a while, until she heard Cui Yaying calling her, she came back to her senses.

"Afu, Afu, what are you thinking about?"

Cui Yaying called her several times.

"Oh, it's nothing. Don't worry too much. Even if he is really infected with the plague, he will be fine. We have treated so many victims outside the city and already have an effective prescription."

"I knew you would find a way," Cui Yaying grabbed Dong Jiafu's hand, "Afu, can you please save my brother? You are the only one who can save him at this time."

"Where is the villa?"

Dong Jiafu did not hesitate. Even if Cui Yaying did not tell her, she would go and see for herself. If Cui Qiyan was really infected with the plague, it might be because of her. Then she had to cure him.

"You agreed?" Cui Yaying said in surprise, "I can take you there."

"Okay, then wait here for me. I'll go talk to the master."

Dong Jiafu hurried to Doctor Tan's office and waited until he finished examining the patient before saying, "Excuse me, Master. I have something urgent to do. I may not be able to come to the clinic these days."

"Do you need help?" asked Doctor Tan.

"If you need a master, I will tell you." Dong Jiafu was not sure about Cui Qiyan's current condition. If his condition was serious, she would have to ask a master to come over.

"Okay, go ahead. Don't worry about the clinic."

After Dong Jiafu came out, she prescribed a few more medicines according to the previous prescription for treating the plague.

Meng Dong helped her pack her things while saying, "Afu, are you going to look for the prince? The prince hasn't returned home. I wanted to tell you two days ago, but I never found a suitable opportunity. Could the prince really be infected with the plague?"

"It's not clear yet. I won't know until I go and see it."

"Then you have to be careful too... How about I go with you, and I can give you a hand."

"Since he won't see anyone, the fewer people who go there the better. The clinic also needs manpower, so you should stay."

Dong Jiafu quickly took the things that might be used, and suddenly remembered, "But there is something I need you to do for me."

"What do you want me to do?"

"I didn't have time to tell my family, and I don't know how long I'll be there. Go find my second brother at the store and tell him not to worry."

Meng Dong nodded, "I remember it."

After packing almost everything, Dong Jiafu carried the medicine box on her right shoulder and the bag on her left shoulder.

"Okay, I should go now." Dong Jiafu took a step forward and then took it back. "By the way, Ji Bai is there too. Do you have anything you want me to tell him?"

"What should I say?" Meng Dong lowered his head and thought anxiously for a moment. When he finally raised his head, his eyes were slightly red. "Just tell him that I want to eat Xue Ji's sugar-roasted chestnuts, and ask him to buy them for me when he comes back."

"Okay, I will definitely bring it."

Dong Jiafu returned to the clinic and asked Cui Yaying to go with her.

The two of them got on the carriage and arrived at the villa more than half an hour later.

The gate of the villa was closed. Cui Yaying stood at the door and shouted loudly: "Ji Bai, Ji Bai, open the door quickly——"

Soon, a burst of hurried footsteps came closer and closer.

"Why is Third Aunt here again? Please go back quickly. I really can't open the door for you." Ji Bai said from inside the door. From his voice, one could tell that he was helpless as well.

"I found Afu. You can't just ignore her, brother?"

Ji Bai paused and said, "Even Miss Dong can't come in. The prince has specifically instructed that Miss Dong cannot come in. Third Aunt, please don't embarrass me."

"you……"

Cui Yaying was about to say something else but was stopped by Dong Jiafu.

Dong Jiafu took two steps forward and said through the crack in the door, "Ji Bai, Meng Dong asked me to tell you to buy her Xue Ji's sugar-roasted chestnuts when you go back."

Ji Bai was silent for a while, "Thank you Miss Dong for telling me, I'll make a note of it."

"If you want to thank me, please also help me tell the prince a message. I must see him today when I come. If he doesn't want to regret it in the future, he should open the door."

"Wait a moment, the two of you. I will report back to the prince."

When the door opened, Cui Yaying was stunned. Their family members had come so many times in the past few days, and they had said all kinds of good and bad things, but the eldest brother just wouldn't let them open the door.

Unexpectedly, Afu's just one sentence made the eldest brother relax. It turns out that Afu is effective on the eldest brother.

Cui Yaying wanted to follow Dong Jiafu inside, but was noticed by Ji Bai.

"The prince said that only Miss Dong was allowed to enter, so Third Aunt should go back early."

Cui Yaying stopped angrily. If it wasn't the inappropriate time, she would definitely rush in to ask her brother if he wanted to destroy the bridge after crossing it.

Dong Jiafu walked in and turned to Cui Yaying and said, "Don't worry, I'm here, nothing will happen to him."

"Then I'll leave it to you, Afu."

The door slowly closed, and Dong Jiafu turned around and said seriously: "Now you can tell me, has the prince been infected with the plague?"

Ji Bai said in distress: "It's not that I don't want to say it, but I don't know whether the prince is infected with the plague or not?"

"What does this mean?" Dong Jiafu was confused.

"Miss Dong, you should go see the prince first," Ji Bai took out a piece of silk cloth and gave it to her, "Wear this."

"Why don't you wear it?"

"My life belongs to the prince, so I don't need this thing. The prince ordered that Miss Dong must wear it before he would meet her." After saying this, Ji Bai took over the medicine box and bag that Dong Jiafu brought.

Dong Jiafu put on the silk cloth skillfully and said, "Take me to see him."

The villa was quiet and peaceful. Dong Jiafu had no intention of paying attention to anything else along the way and followed Ji Bai into the house.

There was a strong smell of medicine in the room. What she didn't expect was that Cui Qi Yan was standing inside waiting for her, and he even smiled when he saw her.

His clothes were neatly arranged, and his hair was half tied up behind his back. If it weren't for his overly pale face, he would have seemed as if nothing had happened.

"Yaying is sorry to bother you after all." Cui Qiyan said, his voice deeper than usual.

Dong Jiafu looked him straight in the eye and walked towards him step by step. "If she doesn't come to find me, are you going to keep it a secret from me?"
