Perhaps out of guilt towards his old friend, Emperor Chengde showed Bai Yimeng the greatest tolerance.

"Your Majesty, why don't you ask where Lord Xing got such good ginseng?" Bai Yimeng rubbed his face.

"If I don't ask, you won't tell me? I don't know your little thoughts. Make a condition. What do you want me to tell you?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." Even though he was thanking her, Bai Yimeng did not kneel.

Emperor Chengde didn't care about these. "Tell me, what do you want? As long as I have it, I can give it to you."

"I want a shop, right at the corner of Toji Street, next to the land where they sell shaomai."

It was so specific, obviously it was a good step. The old emperor smiled and patted Bai Yimeng's head, "You should actually order something else." The old emperor nodded at Yuwen Ji.

"No." Bai Yimeng said no, but her face had already turned red to her neck. She changed the subject, "Your Majesty, you must not know. The ginseng sentenced by the Criminal Court was all stolen. Some were stolen from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and some were from the Imperial Hospital."

"How do you know so much?" Seeing the little girl's high interest, Emperor Chengde cooperated and pretended to be ignorant of the matter.

"Of course I can calculate. Just do it this way." Bai Yimeng just started talking nonsense.

"I heard that your elder brother hits people very hard. If you don't talk to me properly, I will let Bai Yinan come to communicate with you."

Bai Yimeng shuddered subconsciously, "Your Majesty, can I stay in the palace tonight?"

"why?"

"I actually ran away from the valley secretly, and Master didn't know about it. If Big Brother saw me, he would probably get mad."

Yuwen Ji was anxious after hearing this. "Your injury hasn't healed yet? How could you run out? And you even stole things. Are you trying to kill yourself?"

Emperor Chengde frowned and tapped Bai Yimeng on the head. "If it's something else, I will definitely help. But the epidemic in the palace has just stabilized, and your injuries haven't healed yet. If you get infected, how can I explain to your parents?

Besides, the eldest brother is like a father, and it is not appropriate for me to interfere when he disciplines his own sister."

In the past few days, Emperor Mingde wanted Bai Yinan to lead the five battalions of soldiers. In order to please Bai Yinan, he had no choice but to sell out this little guy.

"You are not fair!"

Emperor Chengde was almost amused. He hadn't heard anyone say this to him in a long time. He hit Bai Yimeng lightly and said, "How can you talk like that? Your injury hasn't healed yet. Don't run around or stay up late. Follow Prince Yi back to the palace."

Bai Yimeng pouted and pulled at Emperor Chengde's dragon robe, "Your Majesty, please save me. My elder brother is really fierce. Please let me stay overnight. I can just squeeze in with the Ninth Princess."

Bai Yimeng also stayed in the palace when she was a child, and lived with the Ninth Princess.

"No, Xiaojiu went to bed early."

"Well, then the Eighth Princess will do. If not, then the Seventh Princess. Anyway, I will not leave, no matter what you say." Bai Yimeng started crying as she spoke.

"Hey, why are you crying? Your big brother will at most scold you. You have injuries on your body, so even if he beats you, it won't hurt much. Don't be afraid."

After hearing the old emperor's consolation, Bai Yimeng became even more frightened, "I don't care, I won't leave."

Seeing Bai Yimeng's stubborn look, Emperor Chengde sighed, "Then I'll help you." He then knocked Bai Yimeng unconscious and handed her over to Yuwen Ji, "Take the little crybaby away quickly. Your crying is making me upset."

Seeing the way Bai Yimeng chatted with Emperor Mingde, Yuwen Ji didn't dare to breathe.

At this moment, seeing Bai Yimeng fell asleep, he quickly took it, bowed and stepped back.

next morning

Bai Yimeng was still asleep when he felt someone pulling his ear. It hurt a lot. He opened his eyes and was immediately numb. "Brother... Good morning."

"You're running away, aren't you?" Bai Yinan's back teeth creaked as he pinned the man to the bed with one hand, "You're injured, so let's use a thin one today."

“Brother…ah…”

Bai Yinan spoke up, rubbed his wrist, and looked at the crying little girl, "We won't be done until I skin you alive today."

"Brother, I know I was wrong... Stop hitting me..."

"Do you know how badly you're injured?" Bai Yinan's eyes were red, and his whole body was shaking slightly, "Little girl, do you know that you almost lost your life?

Why don't you stay in the valley to recover from your injuries and come out to mess around? What do you want to do?"

Bai Yinan was so angry that he didn't care about controlling his strength. He swung the bamboo stick and hit her twice, "Do you know how I can explain to my parents if something happens to you? You little girl, you are too ignorant."

Bai Yimeng stretched out his hand to block it, "Stop hitting me, it hurts."

Hearing his sister crying hard, Bai Yinan regained some of his senses and threw away the bamboo stick, "Tomorrow, I will find someone to take you back."

That night the little girl had a high fever. Doctor Guo received an imperial decree and rushed back from the palace. He examined her carefully and said, "Fortunately it's not an epidemic. She was just beaten up. It's nothing serious. She'll be fine after taking a dose of medicine."

Yuwen Ji regretted bringing her back home. He held Bai Yimeng in his arms and found that she was twitching all over. He covered her with a blanket and said, "Doctor Guo, do you have any painkillers? The child is in so much pain that she can't stand it."

Bai Yinan stood at the door, staring at the dim candlelight in a daze, feeling extremely distressed, but not daring to go see his sister.

“Yes, there is, but this girl has internal injuries. If she uses painkillers, her internal injuries may get worse.

The most urgent thing is to inform my junior brother and ask him to bring some nourishing medicine. " Doctor Guo looked at the door, as if he was deliberately speaking to Bai Yinan.

next day afternoon

Bai Yimeng woke up. Although he was still a little hot, he was much more energetic.

Maybe she was scared yesterday, and now she trembles all over when she sees her elder brother.

"Are you awake? Take the medicine if you're awake." Bai Yinan poured a bowl of medicine and handed it to his sister.

Looking through the gap in the quilt, Bai Yimeng stretched out his hand and tentatively took the bowl of medicine.

After taking the bitter medicine, Bai Yimeng's face instantly became distorted, his body ached badly, and he lay on the pillow and groaned softly.

"Does it still hurt? Let's see if you dare to make trouble next time. Forget it, I won't scold you. Sleep for a while, Master will be here in the afternoon." Bai Yinan felt a little regretful, regretting that he didn't control his temper.

"I don't want to take a medicinal bath." Taking a medicinal bath is more terrifying than Bai Yinan. Bai Yimeng lifted the quilt to protest, and this movement stretched the wound again.

"No room for negotiation." Bai Yinan threw a bottle of golden wound medicine over, "This is for you, you... remember to apply the medicine yourself."

"I want to eat crab roe cakes." After saying that, she crawled into the quilt again. It was as if the quilt was a barrier that could block her brother's anger.

"Who gave you this bad habit? You're naughty and you still want to eat delicious food? No way." Seeing the pitiful look of the little girl, Bai Yinan felt a sharp pain in his heart and spoke more gently, "You still have a fever, you can't eat these."

"Well, I want to listen to a story." Bai Yimeng popped his head out again and then shrank back.

Thinking of yesterday's impulse and his sister's pale face, Bai Yinan's heart softened, "I can't tell stories."

"I want the one with the big black cat." The beating triggered the poison in the Soul-Breaking Pill. Bai Yimeng's consciousness became a little fuzzy, and he unconsciously grabbed Bai Yinan's wrist.

Perhaps because he was afraid that his sister would suffocate to death, he lifted the quilt and held her hand. Seeing the little girl sweating in pain, Bai Yinan frowned slightly and gently touched her head, "Does it really hurt so much?"

"I want to hear a story." Bai Yimeng was in so much pain that her breathing was trembling. It was not known whether it was because of the medicine she drank or because the poison in her body had worsened.

"Okay!" Bai Yinan was not good at telling stories. Seeing his sister in pain, he could only tell stories about their childhood.

Yuwen Ji and Doctor Guo were both outside the door. Seeing that the brother and sister got along well, they felt relieved.
