Adjutant Zhang did sit down and have breakfast with Zhang Zixi, but he always felt awkward about something.

"Adjutant, I want to go to the Second Master's house to see his wife later. Will you go with me?" Zhang Zixi asked Adjutant Zhang, who was sitting opposite him and seemed a little unnatural, holding the hot milk in his hand.

"Okay." Adjutant Zhang was brought back to reality by a question from Zhang Zixi. He nodded in agreement in a daze.

"Don't you like today's breakfast? Do you want to ask the kitchen to change the dishes?" Zhang Zixi thought that Adjutant Zhang looked uncomfortable because he didn't like the breakfast dishes. Seeing that he didn't eat anything for a long time, she asked with some concern.

"Ah... no... I'm not picky about food on a normal day. Thank you for your concern, Miss Lao." Adjutant Zhang said as he quickly picked up the food in the bowl.

Seeing that Adjutant Zhang finally ate something, but still looked a little weird, Zhang Zixi tilted her head and looked at his series of actions with some confusion, wondering what he was thinking?

------------------

After they finished their breakfast, they took their gifts and headed to the Second Master's residence.

"Madam, Adjutant Zhang is here." Taohua, a servant of the Hong Mansion, immediately reported to the inner room when she saw the adjutant and welcomed the two of them in.

"Hello, ma'am. Nice to meet you. My name is Zhang Zixi." Zhang Zixi politely introduced herself to the maid.

"I heard from the Second Master that Master Fo has a very powerful sister. So it seems that you are the Miss Zhang~" The girl responded to Zhang Zixi gently.

"Thank you, Second Master and Madam, for your kind words. Madam, you can just call me Xier. I wonder how Madam is feeling lately?" Zhang Zixi thanked the maid and asked about the most important purpose of her trip.

"Much better. A few days ago, Chenpi found a foreign doctor for me. The doctor gave me a good prescription. Whenever I feel uncomfortable, I just need to use that bottle of injection and I will feel much better instantly." The girl said happily.

"Madam, can you show me that injection?" Zhang Zixi had learned some medical knowledge when she was in the Zhang family. She didn't think there was any medicine nowadays that could make people feel relieved instantly and cure the disease.

"That's it." Although the girl had some doubts, she adhered to her principle of never hurting herself and handed the medicine box containing several bottles of injections to Zhang Yuxuan.

This is... Zhang Zixi opened the medicine plug and got closer to smell it.

She was shocked. This was not a good medicine at all, but just morphine. While the girl was not paying attention, she secretly hid a bottle and gave it to Adjutant Zhang behind her.

The two of them cooperated very well, one handed it and the other received it, and the girl didn't notice it.

Seeing that this huge Red Mansion was also deserted, Zhang Zixi stayed with the maid for a while longer before leaving.

"Adjutant, shouldn't morphine be available only in the military?"

After Zhang Zixi and Adjutant Zhang said goodbye to the maid, they left the Hong Mansion and planned to return to the Zhang Mansion.

"That's right." Adjutant Zhang answered affirmatively. He also realized that something was wrong.

"According to the Second Master's wife, Chen Pi is the Second Master's apprentice and has little to do with the army, so the problem should be with the foreign doctor he found." Zhang Zhixi thought to herself.

"Adjutant, should we inform my brother about this situation?" Zhang Zixi asked Adjutant Zhang beside her for his opinion.

"Yes. I will contact Master Buddha immediately." Adjutant Zhang nodded and agreed to Zhang Zixi's proposal.
