As the sun sets in the west, the whole of Kyoto is shrouded in golden light, a scene of prosperity.

Song Nanzhi rode a horse and shuttled among the noble circles in Kyoto, secretly calculating in his mind and with a smug look on his face.

The carriage drove to the gate of Prince Jin's Mansion and stopped.

Song Nanzhi walked up the steps and bowed modestly to the guard at the door, saying, "I am Song Nanzhi, the son of Zhennan Marquis. My son stole the medicine sent by the genius doctor from the young master, and I have come to return it."

The guard said expressionlessly, "If you don't have an invitation, please wait at the door."

Song Nanzhi stood aside with a gloomy expression. After all, he was a sixth-rank official, but this guard didn't even take him seriously.

After thinking.

There was a sound of footsteps not far away.

Xie Jingrui walked out of the mansion in gorgeous clothes.

There was a cold look between his brows, and his aura was fully open, majestic and calm!

"Your humble servant greets His Majesty and pays his respects to His Majesty." Song Nanzhi bowed, without any anger on his face, and tried to be as humble as possible.

and.

Xie Jingrui looked normal, standing at the door and asked calmly, "Master Song, what's the matter?"

Song Nanzhi put on a flattering smile, took out a bottle of medicine from his sleeve and handed it to Xie Jingrui.

"Brother Yan said that he got this from the young master. The court physician just examined it and said that this medicine was made by the genius doctor Yunhe. This medicine is too precious. I don't know why Brother Yan got it, so I came here to return it." After saying this, Song Nanzhi quietly observed the expression of Prince Jin.

Xie Jingrui frowned slightly and his eyes fell on the medicine bottle.

Although the bottles are similar, they are different. He said calmly: "This medicine is not from the Prince Jin's Mansion. Lord Song is wrong."

Song Nanzhi wanted to say something, but Xie Jingrui turned around and was about to go back home.

He wasn't even allowed to enter the palace!

Song Nanzhi put away the medicine bottle with a look of disappointment.

While turning around.

A petite figure came rushing over.

He snatched the medicine from Song Nanzhi's hand.

He was full of anger and asked, "Why is this bottle of medicine here with you?"

Song Nanzhi's worry turned into joy, and he hurriedly explained: "Greetings, Prince, this medicine was given to Jin by Yan'er today."

Xie Wenhua's delicate face was filled with indignation: "Who told him to give away the medicine so casually!"

Thinking of Song Yiyan's difficult life in the Marquis' Mansion, he stared with wide eyes and asked, "Did you steal his things and come to the Prince's Mansion to beg for mercy?"

Song Nanzhi was humiliated by a child in public. His face turned pale, but he could only pretend to be calm.

"Hual! Don't be rude." Xie Jingrui's cold voice sounded.

He stepped forward, took Xie Wenhua's hand, and said in a low voice: "This medicine is not ours."

Xie Wenhua lowered his dark eyes and held the medicine bottle tightly in his small hands. That old man Yun gave him many bottles, so how could he make a mistake?

Song Nanzhi smiled bitterly: "This medicine is expensive, I'm afraid Brother Yan took it without asking, so I hurriedly sent it back."

"I gave him this medicine. As his father, you should have spoken up to defend your son. Why did you come to someone else's house to slander your own son? Are you afraid that he has too good a reputation?" Xie Wenhua didn't give Song Nanzhi any face at all.

"Stealing without asking is a serious crime. Which father would want his son to bear such a crime? Are you his father?" Xie Wenhua's face was full of anger.

Song Nanzhi's face turned pale.

Xie Wenhua took the medicine back and said, "Now return it to its original owner. Ask him to come and apologize in person someday. I will forgive him for giving such a valuable item to an insignificant person."

Say it.

Xie Wenhua broke free from Xie Jingrui's hand and rushed into the palace.

He turned and looked at Song Nanzhi calmly: "My child is rude and offended, Lord Song, please don't take it to heart."

Without waiting for Song Nanzhi to speak, Xie Jingrui strode back to the palace.

Inside Xiaoxiang Courtyard.

Xie Wenhua was holding the medicine bottle in a daze.

"Where does this medicine come from?" Xie Jingrui's low voice sounded beside him.

He stroked the snow fox with one hand and played with the medicine bottle with the other: "An old man gave it to me. Does father want it?"

Xie Jingrui said nothing, took the medicine bottle from his hand, opened it, and put it slightly to his nose.

A light and elegant fragrance emanated from the bottle, the same as the scent of the medicine that my father had given me as a reward.

The genius doctor Yunhe once said that there were only five bottles of this medicine, and my father had given them all away as a reward.

"How many more?" Xie Jingrui asked.

Xie Wenhua ran into the room and carried out his medicine box with a grunt.

Open the full bottles and jars.

He took out five bottles of medicine of the same shape from the corner and handed them to Xie Jingrui: "These are all!"

Xie Jingrui's mouth twitched slightly. The old man gave five bottles to his son and only five bottles to his father!

"Do you know that man's name?" he asked patiently.

Xie Wenhua replied indifferently: "Damn old man!"

Xie Jingrui stuffed all the medicines back into the medicine box and warned, "Don't tell anyone about these medicines in the future, let alone let your grandfather know about them."

"Yeah." Xie Wenhua's mind was completely on Song Yiyan and Liu Yueru.

He looked at Xie Jingrui with deep eyes: "Father, why do women have to observe the seven reasons for divorce, but there is no restriction on men's words and deeds? Men can have three wives and four concubines, but women are required to observe the code of conduct for women and not be jealous."

"Why are you asking these suddenly? Did someone tell you something?" Xie Jingrui asked with a frown.

Xie Wenhua shook his head: "Today, the maids in the mansion were all discussing quietly about the affairs of the Prince of Zhennan Marquis's mansion. I heard that he was hanging out with his cousin in the mansion and was caught by his aunt."

"Hua'er just felt sorry for her aunt. Before she got married, she was a young lady from a noble family. She was well-educated, well-mannered, and beautiful. She had never had a bad reputation. Even if she managed her life carefully, she still couldn't get the love of her husband."

Xie Jingrui's eyes were complicated: "Zhennan Hou's son is indeed not worthy of her."

He stretched out his hand and placed it on Xie Wenhua's head, and said softly: "Return to Liu Mansion in two days to discuss the matter of accompanying the tutor. Brother Yan should also go with you. Then you can see him again."

Xie Wenhua nodded slightly, with a smile on his face.

When Song Nanzhi returned to Xingyuxuan.

Old Madam Song sat around Song Shijin's bed with an unsightly look on her face.

"You're finally back."

"What happened to grandma?" Song Nanzhi asked in a depressed mood.

She pointed at Song Shijin's buttocks and said, "Brother Yan brought some medicine today, and after applying it, Brother Jin rolled over on the bed in pain, with blood everywhere. Why did you just leave him behind and run away?"

"I went to Prince Jin's mansion and wanted to take the medicine to get closer to Prince Jin." Song Nanzhi sat aside with some frustration.

Old Madam Song came over curiously and said, "What's going on? I heard from Brother Jin that the medicine was obtained by Brother Yan from the young master, or it was given by Divine Doctor Yunhe. Is this true?"

Song Nanzhi nodded.

"Where is the medicine?" asked Old Madam Song.

She just asked the servants to help check it out. After applying the medicine, Jin'er's wound has indeed healed a lot.

In order to arrange for her to accompany him to study in two days, she had to be cruel this time.

"The young master snatched it back. He said that if we want to get it back, we can only let Brother Yan go to the palace in person to get it." Song Nanzhi sighed lightly.

"Why are you sighing? Just let Yan Ge'er go. If you take him with you, can't you take the opportunity to build a better relationship with Prince Jin? Besides, Yan Ge'er has the token of the palace in his hand, it will be more convenient than going alone." Old Madam Song said shrewdly.

Song Nanzhi's eyes were dark.
