The daughter of a genius doctor: the scheming prince is addicted to her love
Chapter 55 Return to the Imperial City (2)
Sure enough, within a few days, the troops from the imperial city arrived, and the people of Yuncheng knelt down to welcome the prince, making a grand scene.
Baili Yao was wearing a veil and didn't want the prince to see her face for the time being.
"Greetings, His Majesty." Baili Yao bowed to him but did not kneel.
"How dare you! You don't even kneel down when you see the prince!" The prince's attendant raised his voice, motioning her to kneel and salute.
Xuanyuan Han had a gentle smile on his face and waved his hand, "Hey, how can you talk like that? Mr. Bai is a noble man with a great sense of justice. Even if he is worshipped by us, that is acceptable."
The prince had a gentle smile on his face. He walked closer and said, "This time, Yuncheng's plague was cured thanks to Mr. Bai. I heard that Mr. Bai is a great doctor. My father has been ill for a long time. I came here to express my gratitude to Mr. Bai for saving the people from danger and to ask him to treat my father. Time waits for no one. Mr. Bai, please go."
Xuanyuan Han talked about his status as low as possible, as if giving Baili Yao enough face, but he had to say all the words without giving Baili Yao any chance to refuse. Baili Yao snorted in her heart, thinking that the people in the royal family were really amazing, they even exploited her openly.
Xuanyuan Han kept looking at Baili Yao with a smile on his face. She was wearing a veil so her face could not be seen. Although she was wearing men's clothes, she had a slender figure. He naturally knew that the Mr. Bai in front of him, who was praised by everyone, was a woman.
"Greetings, Prince." Baili Jing rode over on horseback and then dismounted. Xuanyuan Han pulled his arm, motioning him not to be polite.
"Thank you for accompanying us, Major General Baili."
"This is what we should do. Please come in, Mr. Bai." Baili Jing gave her a reassuring look. Baili Yao didn't say anything from beginning to end. Jinkui also wore men's clothes and followed Baili Yao into the carriage.
"Roar..." I exclaimed after entering the carriage. This royal carriage is truly amazing. It looks very large from the outside, and the space inside is very comfortable and not hard to sit on. It exudes luxury from the inside out.
The huge team returned without even stopping. When Xiao Hai saw the carriage leaving, he said to Batu with a worried look on his face, "The young lady has been taken away." Thinking of those people in the imperial city, he got a headache. It would not be worth it if he met them.
"Hey, why haven't I seen that kid Suye recently?" Batu asked curiously.
Xiao Hai also frowned, "I don't know. In the past, if the young lady was in a little danger, or had to contact outsiders, he would definitely show up. This time it's strange. He hasn't been here for a few days. Sigh..." Xiao Hai sighed, "I hope the young lady can come back safely as soon as possible."
Dongdong, the car window was knocked a few times. Baili Yao opened the curtain and Baili Jing was riding a horse outside. "Don't worry."
The prince was in the front carriage, and their carriage was surrounded by Baili Jing's people, so it was relatively convenient to talk.
"If I hadn't come, I would have been tied up. The royal family doesn't ask for opinions when they meet people." She suddenly remembered the prince's gentle smile. "That smiling tiger doesn't look like a good person."
Baili Jing was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that she could still make a joke at this time.
"Recently, I heard that the girls of the Baili family have been going to the palace more frequently. Now that the legitimate daughter is gone, the old lady has taken in Lianshuang and Lianying. These two are just the right age, and Lianshuang's eyes are all on Xuanyuanzhe. The king and queen naturally understand, after all, they still have to rely on the Baili family to go to war."
"So the prince is anxious? Then he can also marry the daughter of the Baili family."
Baili Jing shook his head. "There is no one suitable. The king's health is getting worse day by day. There was news before that it would take at most three to five years. The only girls of suitable age are Lianshuang and Lianying."
"Yes, isn't that perfect? Lianshuang marries the third prince, and Lianying marries the prince. They can fight for it if they want." Baili Yao sighed, wondering why the prince went all the way to find a helper for him.
"Originally, one of the daughters of the Baili family was going to marry Prince Lang. You... pestered Xuanyuan Zhe earlier, and then you got sick. Do you think it will be your turn?"
"Who cares... Hey? But that Prince Lang didn't want Lianying either!" He even blocked the door with a sedan chair and said he wanted to marry me...
"But the family has already set their sights on Lianying, and the prince doesn't dare to compete with Prince Lang for her."
That's why the prince is in a hurry to find a helper. Bai Yao has a great reputation, so she is a suitable candidate.
“Why do people make Prince Lang sound like a god?” Baili Yao let down the curtain. The prince didn’t even dare to compete with her. This masked prince was actually not very old. Since he was so powerful and a member of the royal family, why didn’t he take on the responsibility?
"He doesn't like fighting with people like the crown prince, nor does he like being bound by the throne." Baili Jing was still chatting with Baili Yao. It would be boring along the way so they might as well chat.
"Besides, he has his own reasons. By the way, you... really want that bead, right?" Baili Jing suddenly changed the subject.
Baili Yao opened the curtain again, "Brother, what are you talking about..."
"I know you want that pearl. It was in your mother's hands before, but it was just passed on." As if he was afraid that Baili Yao would be sad, he even observed Baili Yao's attitude. Seeing that there was no big reaction, he continued, "It was not a complete pearl that time, only a part of it. However, even if your stepmother died, she would not hand it over. You still remember the courtyard facing the bamboo forest where you lived. It should still be there. Do you want to look for it when you go back?"
"What?" No wonder those people kept searching. Even if the objects inside could be counted on one hand, they would still keep looking. But the place is so small, wouldn't it be easy to find if they put a bead there?
Since Baili Jing had said it right, Baili Yao did not try to hide it, "But I looked for it when I was here before, in both the small courtyard and the main courtyard, but I couldn't find it."
"If it could be put out in the open, would there be any need to look for it? I just know that my father hid it. He loves my stepmother and would not tell her. Besides, my father has not been home for a long time. Even now, it is difficult for me to see him."
"So, Bai...Father knows where it is."
Baili Jing turned his head and glanced at her. "You can't ask. You know the old lady at home. My father only told her."
Baili Yao was surprised. It turned out that the person who searched the courtyard was not Aunt Bai? It turned out to be the old lady? She really underestimated her.
"Why is she afraid of death at her age?" Baili Yao had absolutely no good impression of the old lady.
"It's hard to tell what people want. The old lady really wants that bead."
