Painting Doctor Jinhua

Since she had already declared in front of everyone that she came from the north with Lanling King, and Lanling King explained to everyone that she was his aide, then it seemed that the simplest and best way was for her to take advantage of the situation and go with him.

Moreover, regarding the fact that the original owner's mother, Xiao Luan, served as an official under Emperor Xuan of Northern Qi, Gao Yang, she seemed to be able to get some information from Prince Lanling.

It was just that the original owner's emotions made it so easy for her to feel tolerance, gratitude and different feelings towards Gao Changgong.

As he walked down the mountain, Xiao Jinyu didn't say a word. Instead, Fenghuang, who was dressed as a guard, became inexplicably angry and kicked the stones at his feet all the way.

When the three of them reached the foot of the mountain, they saw a group of guards led by Lu Yu coming to greet them.

"The king of the county!"

Several guards dressed as sons of aristocratic families clasped their fists and saluted, looking at Xiao Jinyu and Fenghuang with curiosity.

"Let's talk about it when we get back!"

Lanling Wang said this, and then he took the lead and walked quickly towards the carriage not far away. Lu Yu followed curiously and asked:

"Prince, you have gained a lot during your trip to the mountains. How come you have earned two more..."

Before he uttered the word "people", Gao Changgong's eyes turned cold and he glared at him fiercely.

"If you say anything more, I'll sell you out!" he said.

Lu Yu quickly covered his mouth.

Several guards in the entourage could not help but burst out in laughter. At this time, envoys from the Zhou State also came down from the Fahua Mountain one after another, led by Yuwen Xun, who came to meet and greet King Lanling.

"Lanling King is worthy of his name. Even his staff has the ability to debate with many heroes and is both wise and brave. It can be seen that the help of this staff is indispensable for the achievements on the battlefield. We are deeply impressed. If he comes to our Zhou Kingdom one day, I will welcome him with open shoes and prepare a bed for him!"

The person who spoke was Yuwen Hui, and even when Yuwen Hui was making sarcastic remarks, Yuwen Zhi's eyes never left Xiao Jinyu's face, as if he wanted to find some flaws in her face.

Lanling Wang suddenly waved his sleeves and took Xiao Jinyu, who was dressed in men's clothes, into his arms. He didn't bother to say a word to them and hugged Xiao Jinyu into the carriage. Fenghuang followed angrily, but didn't dare to say a word.

Yu Wenhui was stunned for a moment.

"Could it be that Gao Changgong really has a preference for Long Yang?"

"I heard that he stayed in the military camp in Qi for many years and never attended any banquets held in the palace in Yecheng. Also, the emperor of Qi once gave him beautiful concubines as a reward, but he refused any of them!"

"Oh, that's the unrestrained banquet that the king of Qi loves to hold the most. Gao Changgong is not even twenty years old yet, still a young man. How could he like that kind of occasion?" Yuwen Zhi said.

"What is an unobstructed banquet?" Dugu Shan, who had been silent the whole time, interrupted inappropriately.

Yuwen Zhi and Yuwen Hui looked at him strangely.

After a long while, Yuwen Zhi said, "You are also a young man, figure it out yourself!"

"Stop talking. We have gained something from today's elegant discussion. At least Young Master Xie pointed out the shortcomings of the current situation with sharp words. I think we can copy down his words and report them to my father. Maybe it will be beneficial to our Zhou Kingdom!"

Yuwen Xun's words immediately made the three of them silent.

"This boy is indeed talented, but it's a pity that he has been taken away by Gao Changgong. However, I seem to have heard of Xie Zhen of the Xie family of Chenjun, but I can't remember her name now."

Yu Wenzhi said this and thought carefully for a while, but he couldn't think of anything and could only shake his head.

Suddenly he changed the subject and said, "But shouldn't we send someone to take a look and see who this Xie Zhen is?"

……

Gao Changgong stayed in a palace on the north bank of the Qian River. It was an embassy residence arranged by the emperor of the State of Chen with the utmost courtesy. It was fully equipped with all the necessary supplies, and in accordance with Gao Changgong's request, there were no eunuchs or maids to serve him.

On the other hand, the only people who could get close to Gao Changgong were the people from Qi he brought with him, and it was Lu Yu who took care of his daily life.

After the carriage stopped, Gao Changgong slowly let go of her hand. Just as he was thinking about how to apologize for his rude behavior just now, he found that Xiao Jinyu had fallen asleep leaning against him.

"Xie Zhen!"

"Xiao Jinyu!"

Thinking of the poisonous blood she had sucked out for him, Gao Changgong panicked for a moment, thinking she had fainted and fallen asleep, and couldn't help but call out in a panic.

Xiao Jinyu slowly woke up after hearing his call, looked at him and asked, "Have we arrived at your embassy yet?"

Gao Changgong nodded.

"Is it because he sucked poisonous blood, so..."

Xiao Jinyu shook her head.

"No -" she interrupted, "I've been feeling a bit tired lately, so I slept a bit. I'm really sorry that I used the prince as a pillow just now!"

Gao Changgong then breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with great joy.

"It's okay. If you want, you can sleep with me all night."

"The prince is truly kind and gracious. I am very grateful for his help today..."

Xiao Jinyu was halfway through his words when he made a gesture to keep quiet.

"It seems someone is following us. But don't worry, since you are tied to me, we will advance and retreat together from now on. I will find a way to cover up your identity."

He whispered in her ear, his warm breath penetrating directly into her ear hole, unexpectedly causing her to feel a strange sensation in her heart.

"Let's get out of the car!" he said again.

She also said yes.

The two men got off the carriage, and Fenghuang also got off the carriage behind and followed with Lu Yu.

"Don't talk, let's go inside and talk!" Gao Changgong ordered in a low voice.

Lu Yu nodded and dared not talk nonsense anymore.

Several people entered the embassy one after another and closed the door.

As soon as she entered the palace, Fenghuang said to Gao Changgong unhappily, "Let my brother Qing go!"

"Phoenix, don't be rude!" Xiao Jinyu interrupted, "He is doing this today just to help me!"

"But you also helped him, Brother Qing. You can't just remember the good things others have done for you. You should also think about the good things you have done for others. Sooner or later you will suffer if you keep doing this!" Fenghuang said somewhat unconvinced.

Xiao Jinyu shook her head and said with a smile: "There are too many things a person experiences in his life. If I remember everything, I may not be able to remember so much, so... Fenghuang, I will only remember the things that I care about and the things that are worth it!"

"Okay, no matter what, as long as you think it's right, then it's right! I won't bother you anymore!"

After saying this stubbornly, Phoenix ran away alone.

"Phoenix——"

Looking at the boy running away, Lu Yu opened his mouth for a long time before he suddenly realized and asked:

"Phoenix? Could it be that you are... that miraculous doctor lady in disguise?"

He tried his best to lower his voice, and then asked excitedly,

"Why are you with my prince today, young lady? What happened in the mountains?"

With the order from the prince, he kept the letter sent by unknown person in his hand and waited for Xiao Jinyu's arrival. As the prince expected, Xiao Jinyu arrived at Qiyun Peak where a gathering of elegant talks was being held.

So, he waited at the intersection where they had to pass, and gave the letter to Xiao Jinyu, and then something else happened.

However, Lu Yu obeyed the order and stayed at the foot of the mountain, and did not go to Qiyun Peak to see what was happening there.

"This matter cannot be made public, Lu Yu, remember, if you let it slip, I will never forgive you!"

"Yes, Prince, I am a bit mean, but I also know the limits. I know what to say and what not to say. I promise not to tell anyone a word about this young lady!"

"Well, go to the Xinghua Yanyu Tower now and invite Madam Wei over!"

"Ah? What do you want Madam Wei to do?"

"Of course I have my plans!" he said, and after a pause, he added, "By the way, let him bring a servant with him, who should be similar in size to the boy from Fenghuang."
