Yao Yuntao pondered for a while, then said to Madam Yao, "Don't worry about this matter, I will handle it myself."

Three days later, all of Miss Yao's symptoms disappeared, and there was really no scar left!

When Jingying told her brother the news, Miao Shengning came to see Miao Wuchen very excitedly, "Your Highness, this should finally work out. He owes you such a big favor, he must come to thank you in person! When the time comes, we will spread the word, and everyone in the court will definitely think he is one of ours!"

Miao Wuchen smiled faintly, "No, he is not as simple as you think! It's just a prescription, not worthy of Lord Yao's public statement. Although he will express his gratitude, he will not use this method."

"Then all our efforts have been in vain, haven't we?"

"No!" Miao Wuchen said calmly, "Although on the surface, we didn't get anything in return, but he understood two things. First, the rare flowers and plants that caused Miss Yao to suffer so much are only in Wuhen's grandfather's house. So who is the murderer who secretly harmed his daughter? It's obvious at a glance! What's more, Madam Yao's family has always had a grudge against the Zhenguo Mansion, so they will naturally put this account on their heads..."

Miao Shengning asked, "What about the second one?"

Miao Wuchen said: "The second is that he will remember the kindness of whoever helped him. Although we can't see anything at the moment, once it comes to the critical moment of choosing a team, he will naturally know which side to choose! So although we don't have any rewards at the moment, in the long run, this move is very appropriate!"

……

As Miao Wuchen expected, not long after Yao Yuntao left court, he invited him to his home in front of all the officials. "Thank you for the doctor recommended by Your Highness last time, who cured my daughter's unknown disease. I am deeply grateful, but I have no way to repay you! So I can only prepare a little wine and invite Your Highness to visit my home to express my gratitude..."

At this time, some officials had gathered around the two of them. Everyone was curious about why Lord Yao, who was always as steady as a rock and impartial, would invite the eldest prince to his home in public today. For a while, everyone began to discuss in low voices...

This was exactly what Miao Wuchen wanted. Seeing that his goal had been achieved, he politely declined, "It's just a small matter, not worth mentioning! Lord Yao, you don't have to be so polite. You are a pillar of the court and the leader of all officials. It is my honor to do something for you."

The officials around him nodded and praised him, saying, "Your Highness is approachable and kind-hearted. If he becomes the ruler of a country in the future, it will be a blessing for all the people in the world!"

"That's right. Among the three princes, His Highness is the most diligent in learning how to handle government affairs. He has really helped the Emperor share a lot of burdens."

"She has no bad hobbies, and she doesn't indulge in women. She is devoted to helping the emperor govern the country, and she has not married yet!"

Yao Yuntao smiled and said, "Your Highness, please do not refuse my kindness, otherwise I will feel uneasy!"

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Miao Wuchen said, "Since Lord Yao insists on doing this, then we should obey your orders!"

"Okay, it's a deal!"

After the two of them agreed on the appointment time, Miao Wuchen returned to the palace with a smile on his face!

He was in such a good mood today. Not only did he let the always impartial Yao Yuntao publicly express his views, but he also used the mouths of those civil servants to promote himself. I believe that it will soon reach his father's ears...

If my father knew that even Yao Yuntao, the leader of the civil servants who has always been mature, calm and scheming, has publicly expressed his support for me, then I believe that when he chooses the crown prince, he will naturally favor me more!

The most important thing is that he has planted a thorn in the hearts of the Yao family. Yao Yuntao will definitely take revenge on the Second Prince and his party who caused his daughter's illness. After all, his grandfather is the Duke of Zhenguo.

Three days later, Miao Wuchen left the morning court and came to Yao Mansion in a sedan chair.

Yao Yuntao personally brought someone to meet him, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, it is an honor for me to visit my humble abode! Please come in, please come in!"

Miao Wuchen also smiled and said politely, then took a box of precious supplements from the eunuch and handed it over, saying, "Master Yao, these are the top-grade snow ginseng and yacon fruit tributed by Goryeo. Eating them can strengthen your body and nourish your pulse. It is most appropriate to give them to your daughter."

"Your Highness is too polite. How dare I accept this?"

"Master Yao, there is no need to refuse. Miss Yao's health will recover soon so that you can devote yourself to official duties and serve the country."

After the two of them politely pushed and shoved each other with a smile, Yao Yuntao took the tonic, handed it to the butler beside him and said, "This is a gift from your Highness. Send it to the young lady's room."

The butler took it respectfully and said, "Yes!"

Yao Yuntao led Miao Wuchen to the living room and said, "My daughter is so lucky. Not only did she get to see the famous doctor recommended by the Grand Prince, but she also got the Fire Crane Orchid from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion as a medicine. That's why she recovered so quickly! So, I also invited the Second Prince to be my guest today to express my gratitude."

Miao Wuchen's face changed after hearing this, and he immediately stopped and asked, "Master Yao also invited Wuhen?"

"That's right. It just so happens that the Second Prince is very kind and has come to visit me. It is truly a blessing for me!"

Miao Wuchen looked at Yao Yuntao's smiling face and knew that he had fallen into a trap!

He originally wanted to use this incident to make Yao Yuntao publicly take sides, but he turned around and took a two-pronged approach without offending either side!

This cautious and scheming head of civil servants was truly amazing. He foiled his plan with just a light Tai Chi palm strike. He was truly brilliant!

Miao Wuchen was pondering whether he should eat this meal today, but his younger brother Miao Wuhen came out and smiled, "Brother, since you are here, why don't you come in quickly! I got here before you and have been drinking tea for half a day."

Miao Wuchen had to force a smile at this time and said, "I can't be as fast as you! When I was about to leave today, my father had something to tell me, so I was a step late."

"The emperor has always valued you, big brother. This is something everyone knows. He assigned you more tasks privately to test your abilities."

"Wuhen, you are making fun of me. I am just helping to deal with some chores. You are not like me, who are doing tasks that are easy to achieve results! People say that it is easier to be an official if you have connections in the court. In fact, it is easier to be a prince if you have connections in the court. At least you can be more valued by my father than someone like me who has no one to rely on."

"Although I don't have my maternal family to rely on, my eldest brother has a powerful status! People always say that if there is a legitimate heir, the heir will be the heir, and if there is no legitimate heir, the eldest son will be the heir. Your status as the eldest son of the emperor is much more reliable than any support from the maternal relatives."
