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

The revised prescription was quickly distributed to doctors in Lingnan and to the subordinate villages in Lingnan, and free medicinal materials were also distributed.

Half a month later, most of the infected patients in Lingnan recovered. Those who recovered slowly were those who already had poor body functions. With the help of prescriptions to help restore their bodies, they are also gradually recovering. No more infected people died, and the people in Lingnan were completely settled.

Pei Yi then dared to take some free time to write down what he had done in response to the Lingnan epidemic after arriving at the Lingnan government office, as well as what Doctor Hang and Hang Chen had done in Lingnan before they arrived in Lingnan, and then reported them to Kyoto as soon as possible.

After Lingnan's illness was completely cured, Pei Yi also received an imperial edict from the capital. In addition to dismissing the former Lingnan prefect from his post, a warrant was also issued to capture the entire family of the former Lingnan prefect within the Jin Dynasty. After the capture, they were beheaded in public. Doctor Hang was also pardoned for his failure to help Concubine Li to preserve her pregnancy. He was allowed to return to the Imperial Medical Service and serve as the chief physician of the Imperial Medical Service. The mansion that had been seized by the Hang family had not been given to others yet, so it was simply returned to the Hang family.

As for Pei Yi and Xie Zhichan, they will be rewarded after they return to Beijing.

Doctor Hang didn't want to go back to the palace. Over the years, he stayed away from the palace and officialdom, and worked as a folk doctor in Lingnan, where he was happy and comfortable.

But he hadn't been back to Kyoto for a long time. Now his wife and son had passed away. Apart from his grandson Hang Chen, the only person he had closest to him was his only daughter in Kyoto. How was his daughter doing? Because of their family affairs, she must have had a hard time in her husband's family.

So under Xie Zhichan's persuasion, he followed Hang Chen back to Kyoto.

After returning to Kyoto, Doctor Hang and Hang Chen returned to the Hang Mansion first. No matter how many years had passed, it was still their home after all. Even if the floor was covered with dust and the walls were covered with cobwebs, they could clean up one or two rooms and live there more comfortably than living outside.

Xie Zhichan and Pei Yi couldn't persuade the old man, so they had to ask Dan Feng to arrange some people to help clean up the Hang Mansion.

After returning to Prince Yan's mansion and paying their respects to Prince Pei Yuan of Yan, the two returned to Tingxue Residence.

The strange thing was that Pei Jingyu and Pei Jingshu arrived right after they returned.

Pei Jingshu asked, "Before you came back, people in Kyoto were saying that it was Qin Baiwei who discovered the medicine and solved the epidemic in Lingnan, and that she had made a great contribution to the court. Is that true?"

Pei Yi asked: "When did this news start to spread?"

Pei Jingshu said: "Ten days ago."

If someone had sent the news to Kyoto ten days ago when Xie Zhichan's improved prescription came out, the news would have been spread ten days ago.

Pei Yi and Xie Zhichan looked at each other and both had a bad feeling in their hearts.

Pei Jingyu whispered, "It is also rumored that Big Brother agreed to make Sister Wei his second wife in order to express his gratitude to her for developing the medicine."

Pei Yi's brows sank, and he knew that Qin Baiwei was undoubtedly behind this.

She gritted her teeth and told Pei Yi about how Qin Baiwei used the prescription to threaten Pei Yi to agree to take her as his equal wife.

Pei Jingshu and Pei Jingyu only then realized that Qin Baiwei could actually do such a thing.

Pei Jingyu said timidly, "She must be plotting this to target big brother. Now everyone in Kyoto knows about this. What is big brother going to do?"

While they were talking, a servant came in from outside saying that someone had come from the palace.

Everyone thought that it should be a reward for Pei Yi and Xie Zhichan after the Lingnan epidemic, but unexpectedly it was an imperial decree granting Qin Baiwei and Pei Yi a marriage, and granting Qin Baiwei the position of co-wife.

Pei Yi tightly grasped the bright yellow imperial edict and suppressed the urge to disobey the order on the spot.

Pei Jingshu and Pei Jingyu knew that Pei Yi and Xie Zhichan must have something to say, so they both returned to their own courtyards.

After Pei Yi and Xie Zhichan returned to Tingxueju.

Xie Zhichan watched as blood oozed from between Pei Yi's fingers as he tightly gripped the imperial edict. He was probably afraid that the wooden stick at the end of the shaft had been crushed by him, and sawdust had pierced into his palm.

Xie Zhichang knew that Pei Yi was unwilling, so he held his hand, looked into his eyes and asked, "In this world, the emperor's decree really cannot be disobeyed, right?"

Pei Yi looked at Xie Zhichan and nodded with difficulty.

"At least the Prince of Yan's Mansion cannot do that. Otherwise, the palace will suspect that the Prince of Yan's Mansion has ulterior motives."

"Ayuan, wait for me."

After saying that, Pei Yi took the imperial edict and left Tingxueju like the wind.

When Xie Zhichan heard Pei Yi ask Danfeng to bring Zhuiyun out, he knew that he must have gone to the palace.

But what’s the point of entering the palace?

Emperor Jingde must have his reasons for doing this, otherwise he would not have stuffed women into his subjects' homes for no reason.

Sure enough, two hours later, Pei Yi returned to Tingxue Residence with the imperial edict.

Xie Zhichan asked Pei Yi: "Did the emperor say why?"

Pei Yi threw the imperial edict to the ground angrily and said, "There are rumors in the capital that the Lingnan epidemic is a warning from heaven, indicating that Dajin will have a great disaster. The emperor wants to reassure the people. It just so happens that the news that Qin Baiwei solved the Lingnan epidemic spread in the capital, so the emperor took advantage of the situation and used Qin Baiwei to establish a stabilizing force in the hearts of the people."

After hearing this, Xie Zhichan silently pulled Pei Yi to sit on the small couch, took out medicine from the space, and used a cotton swab to clean the wound on Pei Yi's palm.

After washing his hands, she saw that there were still sawdust in his palms, so she went to find an embroidery needle, took out tweezers, and started picking out the sawdust from his palms.

She lowered her head and said, "Then just accept it. Prince Yan's Mansion doesn't need a bite of food anyway."

Pei Yi was stunned, his throat became hoarse, and he asked Xie Zhichan: "Ayuan, are you not angry?"

Xie Zhichan raised his head, looked at Pei Yi, smiled faintly, and said, "It's better to keep her under your watch than for her to keep digging new holes for you."

Pei Yi said: "But——"

Xie Zhichan asked, "But what? Do you care about her?"

Pei Yi shook his head.

Xie Zhichan asked again: "Will you stay in her room overnight?"

Pei Yi still shook his head.

Xie Zhichan asked again: "Will you accompany her to dinner and to Yuxian Mountain to watch the lanterns with her?"

Pei Yi still shook his head.

Xie Zhichan said: "In this case, just treat her as if she has moved back to Prince Yan's mansion. Since she wants to make herself a pitiful woman, let her jump into the grave she dug for herself. Unless you have no confidence in yourself, you will jump into her gentle land."

Pei Yi buried his head in Xie Zhichan's neck and said, "Ayuan, I won't. I just think that even if I put a puppet in Prince Yan's mansion, it will make you feel uncomfortable."

Xie Zhichan chuckled and said, "Then let's just go back."

As soon as Pei Yi heard this, he knew that Xie Zhichan was up to something bad. He looked up at her, and the two of them began to whisper in the room.
