Herb Family [Rebirth]

After Concubine Su was imprisoned, the Su Palace's statement to the outside world was naturally because the concubine contracted a serious illness.

For this reason, the emperor also specially sent an imperial physician from the imperial hospital to Su Wang's mansion to diagnose and treat Su Wang.

Although Bai Heng and Lu Qi knew that King Su must have made arrangements, but when they heard that the imperial physician had arrived, they were still a little worried, fearing that the emperor would catch him in the pigtails.

It's just that Bai Heng never thought that the imperial doctor sent by the emperor to Su Wang's mansion would be his acquaintance.

When Su Wang sent someone to invite him over, Bai Heng was still guessing Su Wang's intentions in his heart, until he entered the study and saw the familiar figure standing in front of Su Wang's desk, Bai Heng still couldn't recover Come.

The figure turned around, smiled and called Bai Heng, "Xiao Heng."

Bai Heng had a sore nose and almost burst into tears. He suppressed his excitement, first saluted King Su, and then turned his head to say hello, "Third Uncle."

It turned out that the figure was the third child of the Bai family, Bai Zhongxuan.

"Today, I was ordered by His Majesty to come to diagnose Su Wangfei. I didn't expect to enter the palace but heard that you were here, so I begged the prince to let me see you." Bai Zhongxuan said warmly.

"Thank you, my lord." Bai Heng hurriedly thanked King Su.

King Su just waved his hand, and said indifferently: "It's just a trivial matter." Then he said jokingly to Bai Zhongxuan: "Envoy Bai Zhongxuan, you have already seen him, this king did not treat your nephew harshly."

It was only then that Bai Heng found out that his third uncle had been promoted to be the envoy of the Imperial Hospital, and since His Majesty could send him to King Su's mansion, he must have won His Majesty's trust.

Thinking of this, Bai Heng couldn't help jumping in his heart. The third uncle is a celebrity in front of His Majesty, but King Su is the object of His Majesty's jealousy. Now that he is in the palace, isn't he standing on the opposite side of the third uncle? ?

Xu Shi saw Bai Heng's worry, Bai Zhongxuan stretched out his hand to touch the top of his head, and said softly: "Xiao Heng stays in the palace with peace of mind, you don't have to worry about other things, you just need to take care of your son's body."

As soon as these words came out, Bai Heng knew that the third uncle was actually on King Su's side, otherwise how would the third uncle know that he was treating the eldest son.

The fact that he administered needles to detoxify the eldest son is very secret, except for Su Wang's confidants, no one else knows about it.

Now the third uncle will know, does it mean that the third uncle is King Su?

Before Bai Heng could figure out the relationship, King Su waved Bai Heng back.The other people who came along with Bai Zhongxuan were His Majesty's loyal minions, it was already accommodating for him to arrange for Bai Zhongxuan to meet Bai Heng.

If Bai Zhongxuan stays with him for too long, it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of others.

It took Bai Zhongxuan a lot of effort to place 1 into the Imperial Hospital, but he never thought that Bai Zhongxuan could climb so fast and so high, so this good chess piece can't just be discarded like this.

On the other side, Lu Qi, who was waiting in Yiyuan, saw Bai Heng came back, and asked nervously, "What does the prince want from you?"

Bai Heng shook his head, winked at him, and said in a low voice, "I'll talk about it later."

Hearing this, Lu Qi raised his head and looked around, and deliberately raised his voice and said, "What? The prince is angry? Don't be too sad, just serve carefully next time."

Hearing what Lu Qi said, Bai Heng reacted quickly, intentionally made a look of annoyance, and forced all the maids who were waiting in the room to be driven out.

Lu Qi followed in to comfort Bai Heng, and performed a full set of plays. After the two closed the door, they deliberately dropped a few teacups, making a lot of noise. The one who angered the prince?

What everyone didn't notice was that there was an unremarkable sweeping maid, who had a panoramic view of everything, and then when no one was paying attention, she quickly left Yiyuan and headed for the concubine's yard.

In the room, after Bai Heng and Lu Qi finished their play, Lu Qi asked again in a low voice: "What is the prince looking for you for?"

"My third uncle is here." Bai Heng said softly.

"Your third uncle?" Lu Qi was stunned, thought carefully, and asked: "I heard that the third son of the Bai family is doing well in the capital, and he seems to be admitted to the imperial hospital?"

"Third Uncle is already the envoy of the Supreme Hospital."

"What?!" Lu Qi was very surprised, and then immediately asked, "Then why did he come today?"

"His Majesty sent him and other imperial physicians to the palace to treat the princess."

After hearing this, Lu Qi frowned. He also thought of Bai Heng's previous worries, so after hesitating for a while, he asked, "Your third uncle... is His Majesty's?"

"No, third uncle should belong to the prince." Bai Heng dropped a heavy message.

After hearing the words, Lu Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

"If that's the case, that's fine, I'm afraid that your third uncle belongs to His Majesty, which will make you in a dilemma." Lu Qi said in a low voice.

However, Bai Heng did not let go of his worries. After all, the situation of the third uncle was a thousand times more dangerous than his. If His Majesty finds out that the third uncle is a nail planted by King Su, then how can the third uncle survive?

But the third uncle has become the envoy of the Imperial Hospital, and he cannot resign at will without a valid reason.Furthermore, whether the third uncle is willing to give up his current status, resign and return to his hometown is still a question.

Since the third uncle would choose to take refuge in King Su, and was willing to take risks to enter the palace to be King Su's nail, I am afraid that the third uncle has something in his heart, and the request is not small.

It is strange that the third uncle does not return to Tongcheng all the year round. He used to think that the third uncle was too busy, but now he knows that the third uncle is to avoid suspicion and does not want to drag the whole Bai family into trouble.

The less the third uncle and the Bai family move around, the less chance the Bai family will be involved if things fail in the future.

After all, Bai Zhongxuan has very little contact with his hometown, and it is well known that he entered the capital alone.Presumably, it was because he did not have the burden of a family background that he fell into the eyes of the prince and His Majesty.

Thinking of this, a thought suddenly flashed in Bai Heng's mind. He pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "Third brother, didn't we suspect why the prince would send someone to Tongcheng to inquire about the news?"

Lu Qi nodded and hummed.

Although the prince's subordinates had detected that his legs and feet had healed, how did the prince know that there was a lame man in Tongcheng, and then sent people to Tongcheng?

Wouldn't it be in the dark?

After all, the Xu family's selection of Lu Qi was done in secret. Before Mrs. Xu brought Lu Qi and Bai Heng to the palace, the prince had already known about Lu Qi.

Lu Qi thinks that the Lu family's family background is not enough to attract the attention of the capital, let alone the capital is not close to Tongcheng.So it's really unbelievable that the prince would ask people to investigate him.

Bai Heng and Lu Qi also discussed many possibilities in private, but they couldn't figure it out. Seeing Bai Heng's expression at this time, Lu Qi seemed to have figured out the key?

As expected by Lu Qi, Bai Heng lowered his volume and said almost in a whisper: "If my third uncle told the prince the news, then there is nothing strange about it."

After hearing this, Lu Qi was taken aback, and after thinking about it, what Bai Heng said made sense.

If the prince had already known everything about Tongcheng from Uncle Bai, then it would make sense.

However, Lu Qi thought deeply, and he said softly: "Maybe it was not the third uncle Bai who took the initiative to tell the prince. After all, if the prince wants to hire someone, he will definitely find out his identity and background."

"Well, what the third brother said is also true." Bai Heng nodded, and Lu Qi's analysis made sense.But no matter what, the appearance of Third Uncle Bai finally solved the doubts of the two of them. ...

Imperial Palace Study Room

After Bai Zhongxuan returned to the palace with other imperial physicians, the chief eunuch in charge of the emperor went to the imperial hospital to invite someone.

Bai Zhongxuan followed the eunuch to the imperial study room, and at the moment he was kneeling in front of the emperor's desk, respectfully reporting the illness of Princess Su.

After hearing this, the emperor asked, "You mean, Princess Su is really sick?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, yes, Concubine Su is infected with the epidemic, presumably because the Concubine Ji who was previously sick in the palace did not move out in time, so the concubine also..." Bai Zhongxuan replied respectfully.

"Since this is the case, let's seal up King Su's mansion. When the people inside are ready, we will come out again." Emperor Yubi then ordered Jin Yiwei's commander to personally lead people to surround Su Wang's mansion.

Suwangfuli

When Su Wang heard that Jin Yiwei was outside the palace and was ordered to surround Su Wang's mansion, he was in the study watching Bai Heng administer the needle for the prince.

The expression on Su Wang's face did not change, he just waved his hand to show that he knew, and the Mo Shu who came to report saw it and retreated silently.

After Bai Heng heard that the palace was besieged, although he was a little panicked, his hand was very steady, and there was no deviation in each needle. It was not until the injection was finished for the prince that Bai Heng let out a sigh of relief.

But when Bai Heng exited King Su's study, he saw at the other end of the corridor, Mo Shu was leading some imperial doctors over, he hurriedly retreated to the other side, intending to take a detour back to Yiyuan.

But who would have thought that just as he walked into the garden, he bumped into the servant girl next to Concubine Xia.

Ever since Side Concubine Xia and Concubine Xu were sent to the Buddhist hall by the concubine, the women in the backyard of the palace instantly settled down. After all, in terms of status and love, they were no match for Concubine Xia.

Now that Concubine Xia is deflated, who of them dare to stand out?

Therefore, the atmosphere in the palace was unprecedentedly peaceful, and the smoky and bad things of the past were gone.

I just didn't expect that Xia's side concubine's maid would appear here.

And Concubine Xia's servant girl was also very surprised when she saw Bai Heng, and she also seemed a little flustered, as if she had done something wrong, her expression changed.

But Bai Heng is not a nosy person, he pretended not to notice, and hastily brushed past that maid.

It's just that the moment he rubbed against the maid, he smelled a faint smell of medicine at the tip of his nose.

His footsteps paused, and he couldn't help but look back at the maid, but his eyes were thoughtful.He watched the servant girl's hurried back disappear, and then returned to Yiyuan full of doubts.

As soon as he returned to Yiyuan, he called the maidservant who was waiting on him to come to him, and asked, "I wonder if you are familiar with Yanhong next to Concubine Xia?"

The servant girl was stunned for a moment, and then she opened her mouth to answer: "Responding to Young Master Bai's words, the servant girl and Yan Hong can still talk."

"Well, I met her in the garden just now, but she looked haggard, as if she was seriously ill. You should go and have a look at it sometime, so you don't catch the epidemic." Bai Heng instructed.
