On the wall of the Dongqi palace, half of the bustling and flourishing city could be seen from here, the sun gradually set, the wind caused the flag on the wall to flap about, Xiao Yi Mo narrowed his eyes as he gazed into the distance, Chi Feng stood in reverent and respect behind him.

 

Chi Feng simplified what happened this past half a year, some Xiao Yi Mo knew about, after all no secret can be kept forever, even if you wanted to hide it, you couldn't prevent others from gossiping.

 

Little princess Xiao Xiang had a mysterious poison in her, she wouldn't live past the age of ten years old, even miracle doctors were helpless, no wonder Xiao Yi Chen took Ji Ling Xue away, they had decided to look for famous doctors around the world to extend the life of that child.

 

Xiao Yi Chen didn't take anything when he left, he gave back to him a court which had just been tidied up, leaving his most helpful assistants Bai Mo and Chi Feng as well as others for him, he finally saw Xiao Yi Chen's sincerity and was at ease, he won't come back, Dongqi was returned to Xiao Yi Mo to protect, why did he feel like times had changed.

 

Xiao Yi Mo tilted his head to look at the rather reserved Chi Feng behind him: "I heard you are my imperial brother's best brother, he's now quit and left, leaving you to us, aren't you afraid we'll take it out on you?"

 

Chi Feng smiled: "Your majesty, you like to joke, when Yi Chen left he asked this official to give you a message, he said he caused you to lose an imperial uncle, but he gave you back a beautiful country and a resourceful tactician, such a calamity of an imperial uncle means nothing."

 

Xiao Yi Mo raised his head and laughed heartily, "Haha, such a great Xiao Yi Chen, such a  great Chi Feng...you're boot-licking makes us feel happy all over, haha, follow us from now on, we won't mistreat you." As he spoke he patted Chi Feng on the shoulder.

 

Chi Feng cupped his hand: "This official will follow your orders!"

 

The sun set to the west, Chi Feng returned to his prime minister residence at night, as soon as he entered the gates, in the distance he saw a white figure sitting under a wutong tree in the courtyard, holding a jar of wine in his hand, drinking one gulp after another.

 

Chi Feng made a fist and placed it against his lips giving a cough: "What happened, someone who can make people live like they're dead, the miracle doctor who can fight the King of Hell, how did you become like this?"

 

He looked over Bai Mo, lowering his head he looked at Bai Mo's face and smiled, "Are you in love, you look lovesick?"

 

Pff! Bai Mo spat out a mouthful of wine, coughing a few times he controlled himself, he rolled his eyes at Chi Feng, "You're the one who has been jilted, you're lovesick, peipeipei, you actually curse me, no ivory comes from the mouth of a dog!"

 

Chi Feng waved his sleeve and sat next to Bai Mo, patting his shoulder he consoled: "Tell me your troubles, maybe I can help you!"

 

Bai Mo said: "Don't you think Xiao Yi Chen has no loyalty, he just left like that without even saying goodbye..."

 

Chi Feng's lips twitched, how could he call the previous emperor by his full name, he really was very angry.

 

Chi Feng said: "What if he said goodbye, you still can't save his child's life, he's anxious, of course he left quickly, did you expect him to treat you to a meal with a great fanfare before leaving?"

 

Thinking about Xiao Xiang's poison, Bia Mo clutched his chest, his expression turning more gloomy, "Tell me how can there be such a malicious poison in the world, there isn't even an antidote, fortunately Mo Xiang had used her mouth to extract most of the poison from  the child, otherwise..." As he spoke he shook his head, sighing.

 

Chi Feng tilted his head to look at the jar of wine in Bai Mo's hand, "When did you dig out the wine I buried under the tree by the kitchen!" He actually stole my wine.

 

Bai Mo raised his hand patting Chi Feng on the back, "Zeze, just talk don't be violent, I only drank a jug of your wine, you're so petty."

 

Chi Feng rolled his eyes, "Ai! It seems I ought to have a woman in the residence." That way it can stop thieving brothers.

 

Bai Mo said: "You're no longer young, if you want to marry hurry up, other's children will be able to go buy soy sauce while your child would still be swaddling clothes, I also have to remind you, you need to marry a virtuous wife, don't marry too many, be like Xiao Yi Chen otherwise it would definitely be annoying to have conflict arise close to home..." He finished speaking and very unkindly laughed aloud.

 

Chi Feng's face turned black, Bai Mo was cursing him to have conflict arise close to home?

 

Leave, leave, leave, he never spoke well of him, hearing this made him angry.

 

"Is the prime minister here!" A sharp voice came from the gates.

 

Bai Mo and Chi Feng looked at each other, they got up to greet him, the eunuch bowed at Chi Feng and smiled: "An order from the emperor, the prime minister has worked hard for the country and people during the Jiangnan flooding, helping the tens of thousands of people root out corrupt officials is the luck of our Dongqi, we recalled the prime minister has never been married, we bestow my sworn sister Xiang Yun to accompany the prime minister."

 

Bai Mo enviously looked at Chi Feng, he really got whatever he wanted, this guy was so lucky.

 

Chi Feng however didn't feel the same as Bai Mo, currently he understood Xiao Yi Chen's feelings when he was forced to take a wife and concubines, the emperor expressed goodwill towards him by conferring a beauty, in reality he was putting a spy next to him.

 

When Chi Feng first saw Xiang Yun, he couldn't help be shocked, this girl was outstanding in appearance and educated, she was not inferior to any imperial princess.

 

"Xiang Yun greets the prime minister!" Xiang Yun lowered her head in greeting, her beautiful hair fluttering in the wind, in the autumn afternoon, leaves fell onto her shoulder, like they were yearning for her beauty.

 

Chi Feng was stunned, he thought the most beautiful woman in the world had been taken by Xiao Yi Chen and he didn't expect there to be such a breath-taking woman like this, even without makeup she was stunning.

 

Chi Feng felt, ever sine Xiang Yun entered the residence, it had become a lot livelier, before it was the sound of a chicken crying which woke him up for morning court, now before it got bright, a fragrance entered his nose, then Xiang Yun would gently call him: Prime minister, it's time to get up, I stewed some osmanthus and white fungus soup for you, doesn't it smell nice?"

 

When he returned to the residence after court, Xiang Yun would approach and help him change clothes, the first couple of times Chi Feng felt uneasy, he felt there was something strange, firstly because he was used to living by himself for a long time, and didn't feel uncomfortable, he knew Xiang Yun was a spy sent by Xiao Yi Mo but he felt it was very handy to have her around.

 

Ten days later, Bai Mo came to say goodbye to Chi Feng, at that time, Chi Feng was grinding ink to paint Xiang Yun.

 

Bai Mo clicked his tongue twice, he leaned into Chi Feng's ear: "Chi Feng is quite lucky with women, have you had that beauty yet?"

 

Chi Feng's old face turned red, hitting Bai Mo in the chest, he coughed: "Get to the point, why did you come to find me?"

 

Bai Mo chuckled, from Chi Feng's expression he understood clearly, Chi Feng liked this beauty Xiao Yi Mo gave him, however he was someone with bad intentions but no courage to act on it.

 

Bai Mo stopped chuckling: "I came to say goodbye, staying in one place for too long, I want to take a walk outside, I'm a miracle doctor, practicing medicine to help others is my dream, you understand, I also can go see other medical experts to exchange notes, then find a clever apprentice, I'll pass down my knowledge..."

 

The smile on Chi Feng's lips faded, "You're also leaving, it won't be lively in the capital anymore...practice medicine for others, you can go when you're a bit older, it won't be too late, what's more you're so young, why don't you find a woman to have children with, it's also good to have a child in your family who can be your successor, why do you need to leave to find an apprentice, there are so many talented people in Dongqi, could there be no one you can accept?"

 

Bai Mo's lips twitched, looking like he couldn't understand Chi Feng's logic at all, "Dongqi capital does have a lot of talented people, only there is no one I want as an apprentice, don't worry, when I've found one I'll return, besides, I'm not a natural at my medical expertise so I need to learn more." 

 

Thinking about being unable to cure Xiao Xiang, Bai Mo wanted to find a place to kill himself.

 

Chi Feng sighed, patting Bai Mo's shoulder, he knew he couldn't keep someone who wanted to leave, he didn't urge anymore, "Wait a minute, I'm writing a letter, if you come across Xiao Yi Chen, give it to him, if you don't...then burn the letter, no need to give it back to me."

 

Bai Mo nodded, waving his hand: "Fine, I'll go appreciate the flowers in your courtyard, take your time writing." As he spoke he put his hands behind his back and walked away.

 

In the courtyard, Xiang Yun wore a light blue skirt trimming the flowers and plants in the courtyard with a pair of scissors, hearing footsteps, she bowed in the Bai Mo's direction, "Greetings miracle doctor."

 

Bai Mo nodded, there were a lot of people who knew him, it wouldn't be strange for Xiang Yun to know him.

 

Seeing Bai Mo was going to leave, Xiang Yun called out: "Miracle doctor Bai please wait."

 

Bai Mo turned his head, Xiang Yun said: "Miracle doctor, I heard you're medical skills are amazing, can you help this young lady take her pulse?"

 

Bai Mo nodded, reaching out with a handkerchief he placed it on Xiang Yun's wrist then began to take his pulse, after a while Bai Mo removed his hand: "This minor illness, I'll give you a prescription."

 

Xiang Yun was happy, thanking Bai Mo she then left.

 

Bai Mo turned his head, he saw Chi  Feng standing there looking pensive, not waiting for him to speak, Bai Mo said: "Xiang Yun has a cold condition, it won't be easy for her to fall pregnant."

 

Chi Feng gave an oh, but seeing a trace of indescribable smile on Bai Mo's lips, Chi Feng said: "Why are you looking at me?"

 

Bai Mo patted his shoulder: "Nothing, have you written the letter?"

 

Chi  Feng gave the letter to Bai Mo, he couldn't help ask a little more, "You just said Xiang Yun has a cold condition, apart from not having children is there anything else?"

 

Bai Mo leaned into Chi Feng's ear and said a few things, Chi Feng's ear heated up.

 

That night, Xiang Yun sat at the dressing table brushing her hair, there was a knock on the door, she pushed it open, Chi Feng stood at the door with a bowl of medicine, he smiled embarrassingly, "I got the kitchen to boil your medicine, it's still hot, I came to give it to you, quickly drink it."

 

Xiang Yun took the bowl of medicine and drank it in one, "Thank you, actually you didn't have to personally come here."

 

Chi Feng stammered for a while, "I was only passing by, oh right, does your stomach hurt, I heard from Bai Mo you have a cold condition, whenever you have your period you'll be in pain, you need to apply a hot compress!" As he spoke he took out a hot compress from his sleeve and stuffed it into Xiang Yun's hand, "Put this on your stomach to warm it then it won't be as painful...I still have something to do, I'm going to leave first..." Finished speaking he walked off quickly like he had oil on the bottom of his feet.

 

Xiang Yun looked at the hot compress in her hand, her heart also warmed, she couldn't help reveal a smile, such a bashful and embarassed prime minister, it was the first time she's seen one!
