Ordinary observers in fast time travel

Chapter 921 Highlight
"Divine Doctor~" Wen Ruxue appeared in Shi Jia's courtyard with red eyes.

"What happened?" Shi Jia pulled her to sit down on a chair and brought her a glass of water.

"Waaah~" She covered her face and couldn't help but cry.

"Where is your mother, the Lady of Chengen?" Shi Jia looked out into the courtyard; it was quiet.

"Divine Doctor, my mother wants to marry me off to Uncle Ling." Wen Ruxue bit her lip.

"Ah? Uncle? Is that Young Master Ling? So you two are uncle and nephew? Wait a minute, aren't you supposed to be very particular about seniority and ethics? How could Madam Chengen do such a thing?" Shi Jia asked in surprise, she had completely forgotten about this.

Wen Ruxue blinked upon hearing this, and asked in confusion, "Is there any particular reason for this?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Jia's heart skipped a beat. Did this world not care about social norms and ethics? To be honest, she didn't have a deep understanding of this world.

But since things have come to this point, I have no choice but to bite the bullet and explain.

Upon hearing this, Wen Ruxue's eyes lit up, and she said happily, "Thank you, Dr. Zhao. I'll go tell my mother right now."

Watching Wen Ruxue run off, Shi Jia felt a little guilty. "Anyway, they're so closely related by blood, they shouldn't get married in the first place."

After comforting herself, Shi Jia went to make medicine again. She first prepared all of Ling Dingkun's medicine. Once he finished taking it, he should be fully recovered. At that time, most of the karma Zhao Wenwen owed would be settled.

Then you can find a beautiful place to retire.

Should we just wait for our bodies to age naturally?
Should we end this sooner rather than later?

Never mind, I'll think about it later.

It's been three days. Has the old emperor decided who will inherit the throne? One of the three princes, or the Marquis of Anyuan?
Shi Jia squinted. Something's not right. According to the timeline of Zhao Wenwen's first life, shouldn't Marquis Anyuan have become the emperor long ago?
Good heavens! I've been in this world for almost a year, and I've finally discovered the key point.

Let her think. If she remembers correctly, Zhao Wenwen married at 16 in her first life and died six years later. During that time, Marquis Anyuan became emperor.

Otherwise, Zhao Wenwen wouldn't have chosen to marry Marquis Anyuan in her second life!
But Zhao Wenwen is now 24 years old, the old emperor is still alive, and Marquis Anyuan shows no sign of declaring himself emperor.

Another interesting point is that in Zhao Wenwen's first life, Marquis Anyuan got married very early, but the current Marquis Anyuan is not married.

Marquis Anyuan has a problem!

Shi Jia was so startled that he put down the pestle in his hand.

"Little Fourth, does Marquis Anyuan have memories of his previous two lives?"

"Host, I don't know." The little system was very happy that the host had finally remembered it, but the host asked a question that it didn't know either.

"do not know?"

"Hmm, the system hasn't received any relevant plot information." The little system tapped its fingers.

"Why don't you ask the consciousness of the small world?"

"No, that won't work. Once we enter the small world, its consciousness will dissipate."

"It collapsed?" Shi Jia was startled.

"The main system said it's because the small world's energy has been greatly depleted and it's on the verge of collapse. The small world's consciousness has poured all its energy into the small world, and without energy, it will dissipate," the small system said.

Shi Jia felt a mix of emotions; all the slight apprehension she had previously felt towards the consciousness of the small world had vanished.

"Host, is there anything else you want to ask Xiao Si? Although Xiao Si can't help you, I can chat with you," the little system asked.

"That's all, go have fun by yourself." Shi Jia waved his hand, picked up the pestle again, and while making medicine, thought about how to meet Marquis Anyuan.

It was as if fate had heard Shi Jia's thoughts, because the person came to her door the very next day.

"Dr. Zhao, my father suddenly fainted. We have already consulted the imperial physician, but there is no sign of improvement. Please take good care of him, Dr. Zhao." Xun Yue bowed to Shi Jia, but there was little anxiety on his face.

Shi Jia nodded. Saving lives was the priority; other matters could be discussed after the person regained consciousness. Xun Yue's father, Prince Ning, was in a similar condition to Master Luo, but more serious. After Shi Jia administered acupuncture, he did not wake up, but his pulse indicated that he was beginning to improve.

Shi Jia pressed his advantage and wrote down a prescription. After the prince drank the medicine, Shi Jia performed acupuncture. This time, Prince Ning finally woke up slowly.

After continuous rescue efforts, Shi Jia was exhausted and, disregarding everything, sat down on a recliner and closed her eyes to rest.

"Thank you so much, Physician Zhao, for saving my life. I will never forget it." Xun Yue's voice rang in my ears.

Shi Jia didn't open her eyes. She was too tired to even lift her hands. If anyone wanted to harm her now, she would kill them all without hesitation.

"Stop talking nonsense, I'm starving, hurry up and get me something to eat."

Xun Yue was stunned. How could this Doctor Zhao speak so...without any restraint?

"Gurgle~" Shi Jia clutched her stomach. "Quick, quick, I'm going to faint."

Xun Yue hurriedly said, "Go and get some food for Doctor Zhao."

"Yes!"

Half an hour later, Shi Jia touched her stomach. She wasn't full, but at least she wasn't dizzy anymore. "Phew~ This lousy body... cough cough."

She turned to Xun Yue and asked, "Does Marquis Anyuan have anything else to do? If so, go ahead and do your work. Don't worry about me. I'll rest for a bit and then leave. Oh, and don't forget the consultation fee."

Xun Yue was taken aback again. Looking into those clear eyes, he pursed his lips. Don't think he didn't see the disdain that flashed in her eyes!
Disdain? For him?
"There is no urgent official business today. Besides, since I brought you here, I will naturally ensure your safe return to the Marquis of Anding's residence. As for the consultation fee, Fang Luo!"

A young man came carrying a tray of silver.

"One thousand taels of gold, I hope Doctor Zhao won't find it too much." Xun Yue said with a smirk.

Shi Jia's eyes lit up, looking like a money-grubber, and he said, "Marquis Anyuan is so generous, thank you very much."

"Dr. Zhao, you're too kind." Xun Yue smiled. As rumored, he loved money, but a gentleman acquires wealth in a proper way.

"Haha, since Marquis Anyuan says so, I won't stand on ceremony, Chuncao." Shi Jia waved his hand, signaling his disciple to put the gold away.

"Dr. Zhao is truly a man of great character." Xun Yue also had a beaming smile on his face. "My father was able to escape danger today entirely thanks to Dr. Zhao. I thank you again."

"No need, no need. It would be my honor to be able to help Marquis Anyuan, hehe." Shi Jia smiled.

Xun Yue curled his lips, his attitude had changed so quickly. "The medical skills of Physician Zhao are truly admirable. I am curious, from whom does Physician Zhao come from?"

“My master is a recluse, and I do not know his background,” Shi Jia said.

"Oh? So Dr. Zhao's master is a reclusive master. I wonder if I would have the opportunity to pay my respects to your master?"

Shi Jia waved his hand, "My master has already ascended to immortality."

"Oh, what a pity," Xun Yue said, inwardly thinking, "This man never tells the truth."

"My lord, there's no need for regret. You and my master are not destined to be together, so there's no need to force it," Shi Jia continued, speaking in a cryptic tone.

"Doctor Zhao, you say so. But judging from what you're saying, you also have a background in Buddhism?" Xun Yue asked curiously.

"Ah? No, I study Taoism more than Buddhism."

"Taoism, what a coincidence, I have also studied it to some extent."

"Really? I wonder what Marquis Anyuan is researching?" Shi Jia looked at Xun Yue, thinking to himself, "Is he trying to trick me into talking? Or is he trying to win me over?"
However, coincidentally, I also want to find out more about you.

"These are just minor matters, hardly worthy of serious consideration."

Shi Jia waved his hand, "There are no big or small matters in the Way, Your Excellency, please speak freely, I am willing to hear the details."

"Very well, I wonder what Dr. Zhao's views are on the Way of Time? Do you think time can flow backward?" Xun Yue stared into Shi Jia's eyes.
