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

Pei Yi raised his head from Xie Zhichan's neck in disbelief, not caring whether the blade would cut him or not, and saw that Xie Zhichan's eyes, which were always lively and vivid, were calm.

She stared at him coldly: "Your body hasn't fully recovered yet, why are you in such a hurry to die?"

The passion in Pei Yi's eyes faded away instantly, like a rooster with its crown drooping, and he said dejectedly: "I will sleep in the study tonight."

After saying that, he took away Xie Zhichan's hand holding the knife and turned over and got out of bed.

He walked to the door, touched the neck where the cold blade had touched, looked at his hands, and smiled slightly. This irrational attempt was not completely fruitless, at least he was sure that Ayuan was reluctant to hurt him.

He knew how sharp her knife was, but it touched his neck without a drop of blood.

Xie Zhichan watched Pei Yi's dejected back as he left. He felt inexplicably irritated and stared at the empty bed curtains for a long time before trying to close his eyes and sleep.

But as soon as she closed her eyes, she saw Pei Yi's lonely expression when he looked up at her.

More and more confused.

She simply took a sleeping pill from the space and took it, and finally fell asleep.

Who knew that her dreams were not peaceful either. Sometimes she saw various scenes of electric shocks and drug injections in the laboratory, and the sounds of people being experimented on wailing and screaming in pain. Sometimes she saw the erotic scenes of lovemaking. It seemed that in her dreams she had completed the passion that Pei Yi had not yet exhausted on her.

As the sun rose, Xie Zhichan woke up from her dream, feeling more tired than not sleeping at all. She told herself that when she had some free time in the future, she would develop a sleeping pill that would allow her to sleep without dreaming.

After she finished washing up with the help of Mai Sui and Xiao Liu'er, Pei Yi was nowhere to be seen. She thought that because of what happened last night, he felt ashamed to face her, so he hid away early.

Xie Zhichan sorted out his feelings and just wanted to work hard to make money and keep himself busy so that he would not have the energy to have those messy erotic dreams.

Then he took Yueyan out and went to Qianyuan Pavilion Rouge Shop.

When she arrived, she first went to check on Zhang Zhitao's condition. She saw that she had woken up, her pulse was stable, and she was fine.

He just looked a little tired, perhaps because he was worried about the scars on his face, so he said, "I can guarantee that Qianyuan Pavilion's scar removal cream is effective. If you use it for half a year, all the scars on your face will disappear. Since you were injured in front of Qianyuan Pavilion, it can be considered that my shop has failed to protect the lives of its customers, so I will waive all your medical expenses and scar removal cream fees."

Although she has a quick scar removal ointment, it is better not to take it out in order to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Zhang Zhitao stared at Xie Zhichan blankly as if she heard the sound of Buddha and asked, "Why did you save me? I looked down on you before and even said bad things about you."

Xie Zhichan said, "You don't have to wonder why I saved you. Doctors are supposed to cure illnesses and save lives. Besides, I told you that you were injured in front of my shop, so I have a responsibility. But if you said something bad about me, it's fine if you didn't hear it. If you did, I would tell you back."

It was the first time that Zhang Zhitao heard such a frank and clear statement of gratitude and resentment. She felt how ignorant she was before. How could she be any better when people made random and unfounded comments without her knowledge?

Suddenly she felt ashamed and said to Xie Zhichan: "Zhitao thanks the Crown Prince's Consort for saving her life. When Zhitao gets better, she will be the Crown Prince's Consort--"

Xie Zhichan waved his hand to interrupt her and said, "I don't have enough animal pens to keep so many cattle and horses. I had no place to keep a few before, so I let them go."

Zhang Zhitao was stunned for a moment before she understood what was going on. She smiled and said, "Wait until I am well again. If the princess's shop needs help, just come find Zhitao."

Xie Zhichan thought about it and realized that both her jewelry shop and clothing shop were still in need of a shopkeeper. She remembered that she had seen a piece of clothing made by Zhang Zhitao on Lu Xiuzhu and that the craftsmanship was very good. So she immediately negotiated a contract with Zhang Zhitao and hired her to be the shopkeeper of her own clothing shop.

Zhang Zhitao signed the contract very readily. She felt that this injury made her feel like she was reborn.

Afterwards, Liu Ji's servant came with a letter saying that their young master had returned from Jiangnan and brought back goods for the Crown Princess, and was waiting at the door of the clothing shop.

Xie Zhichan then came out of the rouge shop, took Yueyan in a carriage, and went to the clothing shop.

When they arrived at the entrance of the clothing shop, they saw several carts parked at the door. There were piles of boxes on the carts. Liu Ji was sitting at the front of the first cart.

Seeing Xie Zhichan arrive, he jumped off the carriage and greeted her, "Sister-in-law, I have lived up to your expectations and brought you the goods. This time, my people helped to smooth the way. Next time, just tell me and I can bring you the goods a few days faster."

Xie Zhichan expressed his gratitude and personally paid the money for the goods to Liu Ji.

Liu Ji was very happy to receive the banknotes, thinking that his father would definitely punish him again when he went to Jiangnan this time. Now that he was going back with a lot of banknotes, his father and mother would no longer say that he was useless.

He also helped people move the boxes to the jewelry shop and the clothing shop. Fortunately, the two shops were right opposite each other, so there was no need to move the carriage team.

After that, he asked Xie Zhichan where Pei Yi had gone and said he would invite Pei Yi for a drink another day.

Xie Zhichan thought to himself, I dare not let you drink anymore, just drink tea, and sent the person away with a smile.

Xie Zhichan opened a box and saw that it was full of high-quality jewelry. Although they were styles that were popular only in Jiangnan, they were even more beautiful than those in Kyoto. He was thinking of finding someone to draw a draft and having Liu Ji's people take it to Jiangnan for customization.

He looked at the fabrics in the garment shop and thought that it was not necessary for all of these fabrics to be made into garments. For now, he could just make one piece of each pattern for display, to avoid making too many of a certain pattern and having them gather dust without being sold.

She plans to discuss this business with Huayu Embroidery Workshop.

But now there are so many valuable jewelry and fabrics in the shop, and there is no one to guard it, so she is worried.

Thinking of the jade whistle in the space, he reached into his sleeve, took out the jade whistle with a thought, and asked Yue Yan: "If I blow this, will He Ying's people come out?"

Yueyan nodded, but frowned slightly, and asked Xie Zhichan: "What does the Crown Princess need? Yueyan can definitely do it."

Xie Zhichan smiled and said, "It's just looking for a few people to help look after the store."

Yue Yan didn't know how to respond for a moment. The Crown Prince gave the command of Heying to the Crown Princess. Did the Crown Princess use them to guard the warehouse?
