"Why is Patriarch Xie here?"

The implication was that he was in good health and should not be among the patients. Xie Jiusi's smile faltered slightly.

"Ah..." Looking at her stern eyes, Xie Jiusi chuckled, "Divine Doctor Baihe, I'm here to seek medical treatment."

"I don't accept outpatient consultations." She refused without mercy. She picked up the bell on the table and was about to call the medicine boy, but the person opposite her pressed her hand, "Don't you want the Tianxin Lotus?"

"Master Xie has such a short memory that the Xie family's Tian Xin Lian is long gone."

"You know, I'm talking about the one Princess Cailuan has."

Su Yuejian raised her eyes and met his smiling eyes. For some reason, she felt that there was something strange in that smile.

"Please ask the Divine Doctor Baihe to come and see my brother Qingrun. I will get the Tianxin Lotus for him. This deal will only make money for him. How do you think?"

"Master Xie would actually do a business that would lose money?" Su Yuejian asked back.

Seeing that she had stopped ringing the bell, Xie Jiusi smiled as warmly as the wind, "Of course."

When it comes to things related to her, there is no gain or loss, only her.

"Xihe's things are sealed with a spell. How are you going to get the Tianxin Lotus?"

"This is my business, so don't worry about it."

Su Yuejian lowered her eyes in thought. She had thought that if Cailuan married Xie Jiusi, then the Tianxin Lotus would naturally fall into the hands of the Xie family. Then she could find a way to force Xie Jiusi to hand over the Tianxin Lotus. But now...

"Princess Cailuan came here for a marriage alliance, and she already has a husband in mind."

Xie Jiusi looked at her and said, "I have already agreed with her that I will get the Tianxin Lotus. I didn't lie to you about this."

"You want to marry her?" Su Yuejian asked bluntly, "Do you like Cai Luan?"

Seeing that she was a little unhappy, Xie Jiusi felt a little happy in his heart, and smiled lightly, "If I can get the Tianxin Lotus for you, all of these..."

"No need." Su Yuejian said coldly, "I don't need Patriarch Xie to do this kind of thing. The most important thing is that Cailuan is a good girl. If you don't like her, don't ruin her life for nothing."

She had done something wrong, just like when she supported Xiao Ningyao to bravely pursue love. Now she understood that love is a matter between two people and no third party can interfere.

These days, Cai Luan has been sincere to her, and she doesn't want to destroy this sincerity. As a woman, she doesn't want to take advantage of her feelings and ruin her life.

Xie Jiusi was stunned. He didn't expect that Su Yuejian was angry not because she didn't like him marrying Cailuan, but because she thought he wanted to use Cailuan's marriage to delay her.

Soon he laughed again, "How could I marry her? The doctor is worrying too much."

The only person he wants to marry in his life is the one in front of him.

"As I just said, you can only make money on this deal." Xie Jiusi's smile faded a little. "Besides, I really want you to save Qingrun."

It was rare to see Xie Jiusi with such a serious expression on his face. Su Yuejian was slightly stunned. The worry in his eyes was not fake. Su Yuejian nodded in agreement.

"Master, have some tea and take a break."

Ji Ci brought some tea and snacks, picked up the bell on the table and rang it. The medicine boy at the door heard the bell and immediately called out the next person's number.

This was not the first time that Ji Ci showed hostility towards him. Xie Jiusi curled his lips slightly and said to Su Yuejian softly, "See you another day."

"Yeah." Su Yuejian took a sip of tea and nodded.

Xie Jiusi glanced at Ji Ci lightly, stood up and left. There was a clear provocation in his look, and Ji Ci gritted his teeth.

Taking advantage of her rest time, he sat in front of Su Yuejian, his handsome eyes smiling innocently, "Master, what do you mean by another day?"

There were so many patients that she didn't even have time to eat lunch. Su Yuejian ate some pastries to fill her stomach. "Master Xie came to see me for his brother, and I agreed."

He had heard the rumors in the streets a long time ago that the head of the Xie family was deeply in love with Princess Minghua. There was no doubt about this. The rumors were spreading like wildfire some time ago, not to mention the last time Xie Jiusi came to Ji Medical Clinic in the middle of the night and took her away.

Su Yuejian didn't like going out for medical consultations. The first few times she went for medical consultations, she only accepted them because the patients were people close to her.

According to the rumors, she should have avoided Xie Jiusi as much as possible, so why did she agree to see the doctor?

"Master, are you familiar with Patriarch Xie?"

Su Yuejian hurriedly stuffed the cake into her mouth, "What's wrong? You seem to dislike Patriarch Xie very much?"

Although she didn't see Ji Ci glaring at Xie Jiusi, he rang the bell as soon as he entered the door, obviously trying to chase someone away.

Ji Ci concealed the dark color in his eyes and handed over the tea. "I just can't stand his smiling face. It seems very sinister. When is the master going to see the patient? I will go with you!"

"I can go by myself. Ji Medical Institute and Ji Medical Hall are both busy and can't leave. You should help Doctor Li and the others, cough..."

"Drink some water and eat slowly." Su Yuejian took the tea and dodged Ji Ci's hand that was about to help her calm down. Ji Ci's expression was slightly gloomy.

Su Yuejian took a sip of tea and looked at the pastries on the plate. "This pastry tastes good. I haven't seen it before. Where did you buy it?"

"This is fresh flower buckwheat pastry. It's not available anywhere else."

Ji Ci grinned and handed her a piece of fresh flower buckwheat pastry, "I made this. My mother taught me when I was a child. It's delicious, isn't it?"

"Delicious." She nodded with a smile, "This is the first time I've seen a man learn to make pastries."

Seeing her enjoying the meal, Ji Ci's eyes and eyebrows unconsciously showed tenderness, "Mom used to make it for my dad. Mom said that now that I have learned how to make buckwheat cake, I can make it for my beloved one in the future."

"Cough... cough cough cough..." Su Yuejian's face flushed red, and the delicious cake in her hand instantly became a hot potato. Ji Ci didn't expect her to be so scared, and hurriedly changed his words, "I'm just kidding, Master, are you okay?"

Su Yue was almost choked to death. Her eyes turned red from holding her breath. Ji Ci smiled awkwardly and said, "I saw that Master was so tired from seeing patients, so I wanted to make you laugh. Did I scare you?"

Ji Ci handed her the handkerchief, but Su Yuejian didn't take it. She just looked at him and said, "This joke is not funny at all."

"Haha, I think it's quite funny. Being able to scare the master is considered impressive, right?" Ji Ci laughed brilliantly, looking nonchalant. Seeing this, Su Yue took the handkerchief with confidence, "I'm not scared, I'm scared to death. You have no respect for your age and dare to make fun of the master."

"If I don't open it now, the master will get married. If I tease the master again at that time, I'm afraid the regent will chop off my head."

As he spoke, he stuck out his tongue and made a neck-cutting gesture.

Su Yue was amused by him, and Ji Ci asked, "Master, can my brothers and I go to your wedding?"

"Of course, I'll have someone send you an invitation then."

"it is good."

Su Yuejian had rested enough and continued to see patients. There were still many people queuing outside, so he was busy for another two hours without stopping. It was already dark, and Qingshan hurriedly appeared to report.

"Princess, something bad has happened to the young master."

"?"

"The eldest young master was just able to get out of bed today. He suddenly said he had something to do and went out in the afternoon. He only came back just now, and he was beaten and covered in blood."

"What?! Who hit you?" Su Yuejian stood up and was about to go find someone to settle the score.

Qingshan hurriedly stopped him, "It's His Majesty."

Stamping her foot and turning back, her eyes were startled, and she heard Qingshan say, "The eldest young master went to the palace to ask the emperor to revoke the imperial decree granting him and the eldest princess a marriage. He disobeyed the order on the grounds that they were not in love. The emperor was furious and punished him with a caning. He is now unconscious..."

Before he finished saying the word "unconscious", Su Yuejian's figure had already hurried away.
