The rural doctor bought a husband who was very treacherous

Chapter 188 When I return to Kyoto, I will propose to you

The old high priest only glanced at the person asking the question, but did not say anything. She closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she looked at Ali who was not far away, "Ali, come with me."

"Yes." The woman named Ali responded and followed the high priest into the stone house next door.

After a long while, Ali finally came out of the house.

"The high priest wants me to go back to the main city of Southern Xinjiang." After saying that, Ali turned around and went back to his room to pack his things without waiting for others to reply.

On Su Tang's side, several people passed through the dense forest filled with miasma and returned to the outside of the forbidden forest again.

After Su Tang and Qi Lingheng returned to the space, they took off their protective suits.

"I hope there won't be any poisonous insects in our bodies." Qi Yan asked with some concern.

He felt that this time his attempt to obtain the poisonous insect was too smooth.

"It shouldn't happen. We wore protective clothing the whole time. Those little bugs should only be able to enter the body by contacting the skin." Qi Feng replied.

"That's good. I'll go take another shower." Qi Yan hugged his arms and rubbed them, then went to the bathroom nearby to take a shower.

Su Tang once again put all the protective clothing that had been taken off into the disinfection room.

Turn on the high-temperature disinfection program. Even if there are poisonous insects on the clothes, the high temperature will steam them.

After everyone had a good rest, only Su Tang and Qi Lingheng set out again.

"Or you can get a carriage and I'll take you, so you can be more comfortable." Qi Lingheng said to Su Tang who was riding a horse beside him.

"No need, we can go faster on horseback." Su Tang thought that it would be safer to leave southern Xinjiang quickly and enter the territory of Dayong.

As for the newly acquired poisonous insects, Professor Tian has now become obsessed with them and has begun researching them in the laboratory.

Su Tang had a good idea, but was stopped halfway.

"Stop!" There was really no other way. There was only one way to leave the forbidden area of southern Xinjiang.

The road in front of Su Tang and the others was blocked by someone.

Dozens of people from southern Xinjiang dressed in colorful clothes blocked the middle of the road, and among them there was a familiar figure.

Su Tang and Qi Lingheng held the reins of the horses and stopped sideways in the middle of the road.

"You have entered the forbidden area!" The woman standing in the crowd looked at Su Tang and Qi Lingheng in astonishment.

The person who placed the tracking insect to find Su Tang was sent by her.

However, they didn't expect that those people with the tracking insect couldn't catch up with Su Tang. Instead, Su Tang ambushed them and seriously injured the person who placed the insect.

The man is still hanging on to his life. After all, the medical techniques in ancient times were limited. Su Tang performed a thoracotomy on the man and removed the poisonous insect from the edge of the heart, which had already taken half of his life.

"What if we went? What if we didn't go? The road is here. Do we have to inform you where we are going?" Qi Lingheng said with disdain to the person opposite him.

"You!" The woman was struck by Qi Lingheng's words, and a complex emotion suddenly appeared on her face.

Su Tang leaned close to Qi Lingheng's ear and whispered, "Look at the peach blossom debt you have incurred. I'm afraid this person will turn love into hatred and end up implicating me."

Qi Lingheng turned to Su Tang and said gently, "Even if I die, I will first kill all those who can threaten you."

The intimacy between Su Tang and Qi Lingheng finally turned the complex expression on the woman's face into hatred.

"Whoever sets foot in my forbidden land of Southern Border will die!"

"Hehe, we went in, and the high priest there didn't say anything and let us out. So who do you think you are?" Su Tang swept her contemptuous eyes over the faces of the people in front of her.

Sure enough, the moment she mentioned the high priest, the faces of the people in front of her finally showed an incredible expression.

"How can it be!!"

"You really entered the forbidden area!!"

"How could the high priest possibly meet with foreigners like you? This must be a lie!"

Su Tang rolled her eyes at those people. These people probably had never seen the high priest of their southern border. Are they being jealous?

Su Tang took out a sign similar to the token held by the high priest from the space and waved it in front of everyone, "Look, she gave all this to us."

"High Priest!!!"

When the people standing in front of them saw the sign in Su Tang's hand, they immediately knelt down in front of Su Tang.

Haha, as expected, Su Tang guessed right.

This brand is indeed a token of the witch doctor clan in southern Xinjiang.

But the sign she had was not the same sign in the high priest's hand.

Su Tang took back the sign and waved to the people who were still kneeling in front of her, "Since you have seen the high priest's sign, you should stop blocking the road."

"Yes." Everyone immediately stood up and made way.

Only the woman who spoke to Su Tang first was left, still standing in the middle of the road in a daze, without moving.

"Ana, get out of the way." A young man shouted at the woman on the side of the road.

"But, how is it possible? That brand must be fake. Let me see the brand." Ana stretched out her hand towards Su Tang.

"Heh! Who are you to defile the high priest's sign?!" Su Tang turned to look at the man who had just scolded Ana. It was estimated that among these people, this man was the one who spoke in the end.

"Pull her away now. If my horse tramples her to death, don't blame me anymore."

"Ana, get out of the way!" the man shouted in a stern tone.

Seeing that Ana was unmoved, the man raised his hand and asked the people next to him to take Ana aside.

"Let me go, brother, that brand must be fake!! She is guilty!!"

"Ana!!" The man walked to Ana's side, sighed, and reached out to chop Ana's neck.

Immediately, the struggling woman softened and stopped making a fuss.

"Please!" The man bowed slightly to Su Tang and made a gesture to make way.

Su Tang and Qi Lingheng looked at each other, then they squeezed their horses' bellies and the two tall horses immediately sped away in a cloud of dust.

After Su Tang and the others walked away, the person next to the man asked in a low voice: "Could it be like what Ana said, that the brands of those people are really fake?"

"No, no one can make that sign."

The reason why this man was so sure that the brand in Su Tang's hand was not fake was because the brand in Su Tang's hand was indeed real.

Another point is the materials used to make this brand.

The sign in Su Tang's hand and the sign in the high priest's hand were made of the same piece of iron stone from outer space. There was no other such piece of iron stone in the world with a black luster.

The man looked at the road where Su Tang left. There was no trace of her figure. "Retreat."

Several people in Southern Xinjiang packed up their belongings and returned to the main city of Southern Xinjiang.

They walked very fast when they came, but when they went back, perhaps because of low morale, they all walked very slowly.

On the way, Ana, who was knocked unconscious, woke up before she reached their residence.

"Brother! How could you knock me out? That woman has..."

"Don't talk about that thing anymore!" the man shouted at Ana in a warning.

"Can......"

"Ana, that man could actually charm you to such an extent, it seems that he cannot be kept." Ana's brother's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and Ana was so frightened that she took several steps back.

Then Ana suddenly pounced on her brother, grabbed his clothes, and said in a low voice: "Brother, you can't kill him. I, I don't like him."

"You don't like him, which is a good thing. Don't forget, you are a candidate for the miko, so you can't like any man."

"Yes." Ana let go of the person in front of her, as if she had accepted her fate.

This is Su Tang.

Without the obstruction of the people from southern Xinjiang, Su Tang and Qi Lingheng rode their horses day and night to Dayong. On the way, Su Tang would sometimes let Qi Lingheng or Qi Feng drive the carriage, while she would sit in the carriage to rest.

In just half a month, Su Tang and his party had entered the territory of Dayong.

"Hey, I'm finally back." Su Tang looked at the people of Dayong in the border town and listened to the familiar Dayong Han dialect. The smile on Su Tang's lips became brighter than before.

"Well, do you want to take a break today?" Although the horses and drivers would be replaced along the way, Su Tang still had to be outside and could not go back to the space to rest like others.

Even though the carriage was padded with thick bedding, it was still not as comfortable as resting on a stable bed.

"Well, let's find an inn to rest tonight." Su Tang lifted the car curtain and looked at the vendors hawking their wares on the roadside.

"Thank you for your hard work along the way." Qi Lingheng looked at Su Tang and said seriously, "I will propose to you when we return to Kyoto."

"Why did the topic change so quickly?" Su Tang muttered with her head down.

Seeing that Su Tang did not object, Qi Lingheng could not suppress the smile on his face. He reached out and held Su Tang's hand, "I want to tell you something else."

"Well, you said."

"I went to Emperor Jing to ask for an imperial decree granting marriage."

Su Tang raised her eyebrows when she heard this and waited for Qi Lingheng to continue. However, Su Tang could also guess that Qi Lingheng must be asking Emperor Jing for an order to marry her.

But Emperor Jing certainly could not have imagined that Qi Lingheng wanted to marry her, otherwise Qi Lingheng would definitely not have been able to obtain that imperial edict.

As expected, Qi Lingheng raised the corners of his mouth and said, "I only told Emperor Jing that the woman I want to marry is a female doctor and she is not from Kyoto."

"Oh, I guess father will vomit a liter of blood when he finds out." He will probably vomit to death.

After all, when Emperor Jingdi issued the decree to confiscate the Qi family's property and exile them, he had already given up on the Qi family. Now that the son of the Qi family married his daughter, it was an order he issued personally.

How could an emperor not be angry when he was tricked by his subjects?

"Then Princess, you have to protect me." Qi Lingheng said with excitement in his eyes.

"Okay." Su Tang patted Qi Lingheng on the shoulder.

Because it is a border town, the conditions of the inns here are not very good.

Su Tang and her friends were only staying for one night, so they chose an inn that looked relatively clean.

Anyway, Su Tang goes back to the space to sleep at night, so it doesn’t have much impact.

Qi Feng pulled the carriage to the backyard of the inn and fed the horses with hay before returning to his room.

"The conditions of the inn here are much worse than those in Kyoto. They don't even take responsibility for feeding fodder." Su Tang sat in a room on the second floor of the inn, opened the window and looked at the passers-by outside.

There are quite a few pedestrians coming and going here, and many of them are wearing southern Xinjiang costumes.

"This is a border city, and not many people from Dayong come here to make a living."

After all, no one knows when a war will break out on the border, so there are not many people living in border cities.

So this inn only has one innkeeper and one waiter, and the inn does not provide meals.

Qi Lingheng had lived in the northern border for many years, so he was not surprised by this.

"Well, you go back and rest later. Qi Feng and I will each have a room and live outside." After all, they were staying in an inn. If someone found out that they disappeared out of thin air in the house, it would definitely cause unnecessary trouble.

They booked two rooms. Su Tang and Qi Lingheng told others that they were a couple and stayed in one room.

"No need. We will all go back and live there soon. Everyone can think whatever they want. At worst I can take this out. How can they investigate us?" Before Su Tang left, she waved the gold medal bestowed by Emperor Jing in front of Qi Lingheng.

"He also gave you this." Qi Lingheng took the gold medal from Su Tang's hand in surprise and looked at it carefully.

"Yeah, I can't really tell what kind of feelings he has for me." Su Tang murmured as she looked at the gold medal.

Sometimes, she felt that Emperor Jing still treated her on an equal footing with the other princes and princesses, and sometimes she felt that Emperor Jing treated her differently.

Su Tang couldn't explain why she had such a contradictory feeling, but Emperor Jing did often give her these two feelings.

"After all, he has been in a high position for a long time, and his thoughts are different from those of ordinary people." Qi Lingheng returned the gold medal to Su Tang.

As far as he knew, Emperor Jing had never issued such a gold medal to any prince or princess.

The words "As if I were here in person" written on the back of the gold medal have extraordinary meaning.

Su Tang shook the gold medal in her hand and said, "If we become poor in the future, this piece of gold can be used as some money."

"Hehehe, I'm afraid that by then, no pawnshop will dare to accept it." Qi Lingheng smiled.

At night, Qi Feng climbed into Su Tang's room through the window, and then the three of them returned to Su Tang's space to rest.

At night, the bustling inn quickly returned to silence.

Because it is located at the border, there are almost no entertainment activities in the city.

People coming and going are all passers-by in a hurry, so those who have been traveling all day will quickly fall asleep at night.

However, what Su Tang and her friends didn’t expect was that an uninvited guest came to the inn where they were staying in the middle of the night.

The man squatted outside the door of the inn and reached out his hand to feel around the crack.

The man then waited for a few seconds before using the dagger he carried with him to push open the wood chip inside the door.

I gently pushed the door open. Perhaps because the inn had not been maintained for a long time, the door made a slight noise.

In the quiet night, the sound of the door was a little abrupt.

But at this time, everyone in the inn was sleeping soundly, and no one noticed anything unusual.

The person who entered the house didn't seem to care about the noise he made and even lit the fire stick in his hand.

Through the dim firelight, the man saw the environment inside the house clearly and walked towards the bed where the tent was lowered.

But halfway through the journey, the person stopped.

After a few more breaths, the man quickened his pace and walked towards the bed. He pulled aside the bed curtain and looked at the empty bed in front of him in astonishment.

There is no one!!

The man touched the bed again and found it was cold. No one had ever slept on it!

How could this be possible!!

The visitor scanned the entire room again and found that there were no personal belongings in the room, as if the room had always been empty.
