Marrying a rich man after rebirth: The daily life of a legitimate daughter

There was no other way, so Tao Lan asked Zhu Jun to clean the medicinal materials and did the rest of the work herself.

This made Zhu Jun work much faster.

He Shulan took this opportunity to rest. Although there were many patients who relapsed this time, they were not as many as before.

After seeing the prince finish his discussion with the imperial physician, she asked, "Have you found out why these patients have relapses?"

"No, fortunately this relapse was not very serious and was quickly brought under control."

This made He Shulan feel a lot more at ease.

After finishing his work, the prince walked up to He Shulan with a bowl of sugar water and said, "Drink some sugar water to replenish your energy."

He Shulan knew that this bowl of sugar water was prepared by the imperial physician for the prince: "I didn't do much work, so I'm not very tired. Drink this bowl of sugar water."

Because the people's diseases relapsed, the capital city fell into panic again and all the shops were closed.

There were very few pedestrians on the streets, and people all stayed at home, not daring to go out for fear of being infected.

There was basically no place to buy food. The sweet soup in the prince's hand was prepared by the imperial chef of the palace and sent to him: "I am a grown man, this kind of work is nothing to me. Drink this sweet soup, so that you will have the strength to work in the afternoon."

Having said that, He Shulan no longer refused.

……

When Tan Shaocong learned that Tao Lan went to the pharmacy to take care of the patients who had relapsed, his face turned ugly.

Unable to stop worrying, I suppressed my disgust and went to the pharmacy. I stood at the door, not daring to go in.

Ask the gatekeeper to call out Tao Lan who is working.

When Tao Lan learned that Tan Shaocong came to see her, she was very happy. She put down her work and ran out excitedly: "Why are you here?"

Tan Shaocong looked unhappy: "What kind of place is this? Don't you know? It's full of sick people, and you're not afraid of being infected."

"Of course I know, but everyone is afraid of being infected and doesn't want to come here. Then who will take care of these sick patients?" Tao Lan replied dissatisfiedly.

"It's not your turn to take care of it. Come back with me quickly to avoid being infected by these patients."

"I won't leave." Tao Lan refused: "I want to stay until these patients recover."

Tan Shaocong was so angry that his voice became much sharper: "Why are you pretending to be great at this time? Do you know that once you are infected, you will be like these people and may never be cured in this lifetime?"

"No, although there are many patients who have relapsed this time, there are also many who have been cured." In order to comfort Tan Shaocong, Tao Lan deliberately moved closer to him and softened her tone.

Tan Shaocong smelled the medicine on Tao Lan and subconsciously kept his distance from her. Seeing the patients coming and going in the yard, he completely lost his patience: "If you don't leave, I won't come to see you again."

Tao Lan's eyes instantly turned red. During this period, Tan Shaocong often came to see her.

She ignored her family's dissuasion and often met with Tan Shaocong, and the two had a good relationship.

Not knowing why Tan Shaocong was so against her coming here, she continued to persuade her: "The pharmacy has been cleaned with medicine by the imperial physician, so it won't be so easy to be infected."

"That's not necessarily true." Tan Shaocong no longer had the elegance and gentleness of the past, but was now cold and ruthless.

This made Tao Lan feel a little uncomfortable and hesitant.

"Get out of the way." The bailiffs carried the citizen who had relapsed and ran into the pharmacy.

The bailiff saw Tao Lan wearing a white coat and a white hat on her head.

Thinking she was a medicine boy in the Imperial Hospital, he said, "What are you still standing there for? Come in and take care of the patient."

Tao Lan no longer hesitated at this time. If Tan Shaocong didn't want to pay attention to her in the future, then let him be. A man without sympathy was not worthy of her love.

Ignoring Tan Shaocong, she lifted her skirt and ran into the pharmacy.

Tan Shaocong's face turned red with anger, but he was helpless and could only watch Tao Lan go to the pharmacy to treat the patient.

He stood at the door for a long time, and after confirming Tao Lan's choice, he had to leave.

Halfway through the journey, he was dragged into an alley.

Tan Shaocong saw Zhong Ming in front of him and let down his guard: "Why are you here?"

"I should be the one asking you this. Why did you go to the pharmacy? What if someone discovers your identity?"

"No." Tan Shaocong was upset because of Tao Lan's matter, and his tone of voice was not very good.

Zhong Ming snorted coldly: "Don't be too confident in yourself. The prince has discovered something unusual and is investigating the illness of the people in the capital."

"Even if they investigate, they won't find anything. Don't worry too much." Tan Shaocong didn't care.

Zhong Ming was furious: "You spend every day with the young lady from the Tao Mansion, talking about love, and you have no sense of crisis. If you continue to investigate like this, it will sooner or later lead to us."

This made Tan Shaocong alert. He really should be on guard. "Got it. Now that we're done, when are you leaving?"

Zhong Ming glared at Tan Shaocong and said, "Not only did we fail to accomplish our mission, but we also messed it up. How can we explain this to Emperor Wei when we return?"

"Has the Emperor of Wei ever told you why he wanted us to come to the capital to release the virus and make the people of the capital sick?"

Zhong Ming shook his head: "I'm not sure either, and these things are not something we can interfere with. We will do whatever the Emperor Wei tells us to do."

Tan Shaocong guessed that the Emperor of Wei wanted to provoke a war in the border town and take some things back from the vast and resource-rich Daxing Kingdom.

The purpose of deliberately making the people of the capital sick was to create panic. The Emperor of Wei took the opportunity to attack: "What should we do next?"

"Hold your troops for now. The prince is investigating strictly, so we should avoid being discovered by him. We will leave the capital after the storm has passed."

Tan Shaocong nodded indifferently. He subconsciously thought that it was impossible for the prince to find out that they were the ones who did it.

Zhong Ming warned: "Don't go to the pharmacy in the future, and have less contact with the prince, so as not to let him find out anything unusual."

"You've said this many times, I know."

Tan Shaocong's attitude made Zhong Ming angry: "You are a military advisor, you have the favor of Emperor Wei, you can act recklessly, and he won't say anything if the mission fails, but it's different for me, I will be punished."

"With me here, nothing will happen to you, so you don't need to worry," Tan Shaocong comforted.

This comfort had no effect on Zhong Ming, but instead made him even more worried.

Thinking of Tao Lan's affairs, he became even more worried and his hair turned white: "There are so many women in Beijing, why did you choose Tao Lan when you can find someone else?"

"I can't help it. The first time I saw her, I wanted to be with her. You wouldn't even bother with something like this."

Of course Zhong Ming didn't want to get involved, but since the woman was Tao Lan, he had to take care of it. He was not afraid of anything else, but he was afraid that Tao Lan was a spy lurking around Tan Shaocong.

When the time comes, I will catch them all in one fell swoop. When the words came to his lips, he thought of his identity and swallowed them back.
