The doctor concubine who broke off the engagement was forced to rush to the wedding, but became the

When the Crown Prince set out for the Northern Frontier, if he had not left Heying's people in Kyoto to protect Prince Yan's Mansion, the Crown Prince would not have been seriously injured on his way back to the capital.

But now he has given such an important command of the secret guard to the Crown Prince's wife. It seems that in the Crown Prince's heart, the Crown Prince's wife is not just a marriage granted by the Emperor to bring good luck.

Yue Yan understood this and responded solemnly: "Yes! I will definitely protect the Crown Prince's Consort."

Xie Zhichan looked at the jade whistle in his hand. It was round, smooth, and transparent. It was an expensive item. Even the token of command was priceless. It seemed that He Ying must be extremely powerful.

She shook the jade whistle in her hand and asked Pei Yi, "What is Crane Shadow?"

Pei Yi replied with some pride: "One hundred of the most powerful secret guards are selected from the secret guard camp of the Prince of Yan's Palace every three years. Every three years, they are re-selected. To put it bluntly, even if the palace is surrounded, they can still protect the leader and escape unscathed."

Xie Zhichan placed the jade whistle in front of his right eye, squinted his left eye, and looked at Pei Yi through the hole of the jade whistle, smiling: "Sir, such a valuable gift cannot be given away easily. It is a matter of life and death."

After saying that, just when Pei Yi thought she was going to refuse it, she clenched her hand and casually put the jade whistle into her sleeve, looking very casual.

But her hand hidden in her sleeve immediately put the jade whistle back into the space. Such a precious thing must be hidden well.

Pei Yi saw that she was pretending to be casual about putting away the treasure even though she had it in her mouth, so he did not expose her. He just smiled and said, "It's good that the princess doesn't mind. This lunchbox is Jingyu's medical fee."

Pei Yi's consultation fee was only a white jade lotus crown. The little girl's illness was not as difficult as his, so why did she need such an expensive consultation fee...

Xie Zhichan leaned closer to Pei Yi, placed his hands on the small table in front of him, squinted his eyes and smiled, "Brother Yi, listen to my advice, don't let beauty blind your mind, it will kill you."

Then, he got off the couch, left the room, found a guest room, hid in the space to play with the treasure, and cool off for a while.

Pei Yi, however, was so excited by the call of "Brother Yi" that his blood boiled. A tingling sensation rushed from his tailbone to his forehead. Even Xiao Pei joined in the fun. He sat on the small couch, not daring to move. He opened the window and let the wind blow for a long time before he recovered.

He recalled the gorgeous and charming look on Xie Zhichan's face when she smiled and called him "Brother Yi" with narrowed eyes, and cursed in his heart: "Witch!"

----

On the day of the Spring Banquet at Princess Yongtai’s mansion.

At the gate of Prince Yan's Mansion, servants had harnessed three carriages and were waiting for several masters who were going to the Princess's Mansion for a banquet.

The only people attending the banquet today were Lin, Pei Jingrou, Pei Jingyu, Pei Yi and Xie Zhichan.

Originally, this gathering was mainly attended by female relatives, but men were not prohibited from attending.

Although Pei Yi gave Yueyan and Heying to Xie Zhichan, he was still worried about her safety, so he decided to go with Xie Zhichan.

When Lin went out, she saw Pei Yi clinging to Xie Zhichan like a dog-skin plaster. Thinking that Pei Yuan was now just an idle prince who was too lazy to spend half a day with her even when he had free time, she felt very upset and opened the curtain of the carriage and got in.

Pei Jingrou was supposed to ride in the same carriage with Pei Jingyu, but what she hated most was seeing Pei Jingyu's face. Then the incident at Tingxueju happened, and she disliked Pei Jingyu even more.

She put on a cold face, turned around and went to Lin's carriage, and said loudly: "Mother, I want to ride in the same carriage with you, not with those guys who can only pretend to be pitiful."

Pei Jingyu's face immediately turned red, but she dared not say anything. She just pursed her lips and got on the carriage alone.

When Pei Yi saw this, he just watched Pei Jingrou leave with a gloomy look in his eyes, but since they were both blood-related sisters, he couldn't say anything in front of Lin at the gate of the mansion.

After Dan Feng pushed Pei Yi onto the carriage, Xie Zhichan lifted the curtain and said to Pei Yi, "You sit by yourself. I'll go see the Third Miss." Then he walked towards Pei Jingyu's carriage.

Pei Jingyu was sitting in the car feeling a little uneasy. In the past, if Pei Jingrou was unhappy with her, she would often vent her anger on her for several days after ridiculing her in person. She would either ask Lin to secretly deduct her monthly salary, or ask the housekeepers to deduct her food, clothing, and daily necessities, such as ice in summer or charcoal in winter. She would also make things difficult for her personal maid.

She sighed slightly in her heart. With her brother in this state now, she was afraid that his position as the crown prince would be in jeopardy. She really didn't want to cause trouble for her brother, so she had to tell herself that it would be over if she just endured it.

Xie Zhichan lifted the carriage curtain and saw Pei Jingyu with a melancholy expression on her face. Under her confused gaze, he got on the carriage and said with a smile, "Third sister, your brother asked me to ride in the same carriage with you."

Xie Zhichan said this just to make Pei Jingyu feel that Pei Yi, as a brother, really cared about her. In this way, she would think that her brother really cared about her, and perhaps she would have more confidence and not be so timid all the time.

Sure enough, when Pei Jingyu heard that it was her brother who asked her sister-in-law to come and ride with her, her eyes suddenly brightened up and she smiled and said, "I'm fine."

Seeing her forbearing look, Xie Zhichan could guess that she was probably thinking about Pei Yi's current situation and didn't want to cause trouble for Pei Yi. He sighed in his heart that sensible girls do have a hard life.

But she didn't like to see the beautiful and kind girl suffer such a miserable life, so she took out a purse from her sleeve. Inside was the antidote she had prepared for Pei Jingyu. She added brown sugar, pinched it into small sugar pills, and then sealed them with wax balls.

She handed the purse to Pei Jingyu and said, "I noticed that there are some dark circles under the corners of Third Sister's eyes. It must be because she didn't sleep well at night. Inside are the tranquilizing pills I made according to the secret recipe given by my grandfather. They are not bitter at all, just like sugar pills. Take one pill every day before going to bed, and I guarantee that you will be able to sleep all night in a month."

Pei Jingyu also knew that Xie Zhichan's maternal grandfather was the former director of the Imperial Medical Bureau. Although he was exiled for some reasons, many aristocratic families had heard of the medical skills of Doctor Hang.

And she has indeed been having trouble sleeping recently because of her brother's condition, and sometimes she even suffers from insomnia until dawn.

She took the purse and said gratefully, "Thank you, sister-in-law." She smiled and said, "It is a blessing for my brother to marry me."

Seeing that she accepted the call, Xie Zhichan felt relieved and thought to himself: Silly child, your brother paid for the medical fee, and he has the entire Heying Dark Guard. He has given me his life and property. If I don’t treat you well, I will owe him a favor, and I may have to repay him with my own body at that time. That would be a huge loss!
