Qin Baiwei saw Pei Yi leave, so she followed him. When she reached the gate of Lu's residence, she saw that Pei Yi had no intention of inviting her to sit for a while at Prince Yan's residence until she got on the carriage, so she couldn't help but say, "Brother Yi, I've read some medical books recently, and I don't know if they can help Brother Yi's paralysis. Why don't we go to Prince Yan's residence with Brother Yi to discuss with Divine Doctor Ye, and maybe we can find some useful prescriptions."

Pei Yi saw that she looked not very well. He thought that she had been busy reading medical books for his condition these days and had not rested well. He could not refuse her kindness at the gate of Lu Mansion and make her lose face in the circle of noble ladies in Kyoto. So he said, "Since that's the case, Sister Wei, let's go together."

Xie Zhichan's carriage passed by. The matter of breaking off the engagement was completely resolved, and she began to think about treating Pei Yi again. Pei Yi's stem cells cultivated in the medical space will soon be completed. What kind of opportunity should she find to treat him?

You can't just go up to someone and say, "I can cure your paralysis, but I have to knock you out first, and then you have to stay unconscious the whole time, and no one from you can be there to watch over me," right?

There is also the question of whether he can keep the secret for Pei Yi after curing her.

When she treated his injuries in the carriage outside the capital, he was unconscious the whole time, and his guards had no choice but to listen to her and stand guard outside the carriage, so they didn't know how she treated him.

If her secret was leaked out because of curing his paralysis, she might never have a peaceful life again. She might even be captured and used as a test subject for research, just like in her previous life.

She was worrying about Pei Yi's treatment plan when she heard Pei Yi call her "Sister Wei". Thinking that she was so worried, Pei Yi seemed so nonchalant.

I couldn't help but roll my eyes. They were calling each other brother and sister, and they were quite affectionate. Didn't he know what was going on? He didn't know how to restrain himself. He was just a scumbag.

Pei Yi had no idea that Xie Zhichan was worried about how to treat his illness, and he even cursed him in his heart as if to vent his anger.

He was still stroking the jade pendant with "A Yuan" in his hand, closing his eyes and thinking: "So the woman in the hot spring pool is Bai Xian'er, and Xie Zhichan is Bai Xian'er! How can such a person with great medical skills be willing to treat him and keep his secret? How about finding a way to tie her to the ship of Prince Yan's Mansion?"

Qin Baiwei pursed her lips and looked at Pei Yi for a long time. In fact, although she had read many medical books in the past few days, she had no idea. Going to see Divine Doctor Ye to discuss was just an excuse. She just wanted to ask Brother Yi something. Seeing that he had no intention of opening his eyes to talk to her, and seeing that they were about to turn the corner and reach Prince Yan's Mansion, she had to take the initiative to ask: "Is Brother Yi familiar with Miss Xie?"

Pei Yi opened his eyes and thought seriously for a moment. Are he and Xie Zhichan familiar with each other? They have only met three times, and today is only the fourth time. If you count the time in the dream, they have barely met five times, so they can't be considered familiar with each other.

But when they met for the first time, she helped him save Liang Qixing's life and reconnected Liang Qixing's broken arm - making him owe her a great favor that he would never forget for the rest of his life.

On the second side, in the hot spring pool, he mistook her for a Turkic spy and fought her to the death in the water. She took a knife and tried to kill his Xiao Pei twice.

On the third side, in the dream, she seduced him with her beauty, and her prank succeeded.

The fourth time, on the official road outside Beijing, she pulled him back to the world from the hands of the King of Hell and made him owe her a life.

The fifth one was today. They watched a big drama together. In order to repay her kindness, he helped her get the letter of withdrawal of engagement.

It seems that no matter what happens between them, it can't be said that they are not familiar with each other, right?

Thinking of this, Pei Yi couldn't help but smile and said, "I owe Miss Xie a lot of favors, so I have to repay her."

But Qin Baiwei was dazzled by that smile, and a surge of jealousy rose in her heart - who is Brother Yi? The cold-faced exiled immortal, who the noble ladies in the capital dared not approach even if they were dazzled by his elegance, smiled like a spring breeze when he talked about Xie Zhichan.

There were some things that Pei Yi, as a man, was slow to realize, but she had seen clearly. Even though the handkerchief in her hand was clenched into a ball, it could not make her eliminate the jealousy in her heart - Brother Yi was hers! No one could take him away!

-

That night, at the Earl's Mansion in Chiayi.

In the Hanmei Hall where Madam Lu was, the old lady sat at the top with a stern expression, and at the bottom sat Lu Xiuzhu, who had a pale face.

After seeing off the guests at the mansion, the grandfather and grandson finally had time to sit down and have a good talk about what happened during the day.

Lu Xiuzhu still found it hard to convince himself that what happened to Bai Tian Qiao'er was actually planned by his grandmother in order to set up her own fiancée in order to cancel the marriage.

"Why on earth did grandma do this? Although Ah Yuan was thrown on the farm since she was young, and there were some messages outside saying that she was uncouth, but grandma also saw her today and knew that she was not as the rumors said, and she was not unworthy of her grandson at all. Why on earth did grandma want to separate Ah Yuan and me like this?"

Madam Lu slammed the table in anger and said, "Why? Didn't you see her aggressive attitude today? If you marry such a stubborn girl, she will cause unrest in the family. Are you afraid that she will anger Grandmother to death?"

Lu Xiuzhu said, "But if it wasn't for grandma's plotting against Ayuan today, causing her to almost lose her innocence, how could Ayuan be so unforgiving? A woman's innocence is as important as her life. If the person in the room today was Ayuan, how could she live in the future?"

Old Madam Lu listened to Lu Xiuzhu's accusations against her word by word. It seemed that in her grandson's heart, she was regarded as an evil existence like a scourge and a beast, and all his admiration and respect for her were in jeopardy.

She said helplessly: "It's not that grandma insisted on doing this, but I have to do it!"

Lu Xiuzhu said, "Why? Grandmother, grandfather and father passed away early, and you were the only one guarding the Lu Mansion and raising your grandson. The emperor even gave the Lu Mansion a chastity arch. You are such a great woman, and your grandson really can't understand why you would calculate the innocence of a little girl to force the other party to break off the engagement."

Seeing that Lu Xiuzhu insisted on asking why, Madam Lu finally revealed everything: "This was the idea of ​​Princess Yongtai. Princess Anle took a fancy to you and wanted to recruit you as a princess. Princess Yongtai came to my house in person and threatened me with your future. Princess Yongtai is favored by the emperor, how can we, the Earl's Mansion of Chiayi, resist? Besides, your status is different now, so it is not impossible for you to marry Princess Anle. Grandmother had to do this for your own good. Brother Zhu, you should also see how difficult it is for grandma over the years!"

The more he talked, the more he remembered the difficulties he had gone through over the years, and the hardships he had experienced when those people from the Lu family's side branches came to cause trouble, and tears welled up in his eyes.
