Su Yujiao shook her head: "No, I'll just walk around the city first and stay at this inn tonight."

"That's fine, let's live together and take care of each other."

Su Yujiao went to the local clinic and easily got some useful information.

For example, the Xiaonan clan palace is offering a large reward for a famous doctor from all over the world, and Prince Xiao is very ill and has been bedridden.

For example, Prince Xiao had crooked eyes and a slanted mouth, and the local wizard said he was possessed by an evil spirit.

"Excuse me, old man, if I want to enter the palace to treat the king, where should I go to register?"

The old doctor looked the young man up and down and said, "Young man, the money in the palace is not so easy to earn. Be careful, you may not be able to return."

"Thank you for the reminder, old man. I'm asking on behalf of my master."

The old doctor asked her to go to the palace gate and tell the guards that she was there to uncover the imperial edict, and someone would naturally take her into the palace.

After expressing her gratitude, Su Yujiao returned to the inn without staying for long. She left a message for Boss Zhang and went into the palace with her medicine box.

She made full preparations for the treatment and brought many possible medicines and medical equipment that were not available in this era, such as surgical tools, disinfection tools, and some bottles and jars.

Of course, these are all her homemade, simple versions.

These were all her "possessions". Although she didn't know what disease Prince Xiao had, it was always better to be prepared.

However, there were too many things, so she didn't bring them all into the palace. She only carried a small medicine box.

After the diagnosis, if it is really needed, you can come back to get it.

"Master, the young lady is ready to enter the palace."

"Well, let's go."

As soon as Su Yujiao left the inn, she was blocked by a carriage.

Lu Ziqian opened the curtain and said in a calm tone, "Get in the car."

The woman was surprised for only a second before looking away.

No wonder Boss Zhang said that everything was peaceful along the way. It turned out that he was protecting them in secret.

But so what? He just likes to be in control of everything and doesn't want her to be out of his control.

Su Yujiao walked around the carriage and continued walking. Lu Ziqian pinched his eyebrows in annoyance.

Why didn’t I notice how stubborn she was before?

The man got out of the car, picked up the woman by the waist, and threatened her: "Just shout and get everyone here."

Su Yujiao closed her mouth but bit the man's shoulder hard.

If he doesn't let her have an easy life, then he won't have an easy life either.

"Si...you are a dog, why do you like to bite people so much?"

Lu Ziqian slapped the woman's butt twice, neither too hard nor too light. Su Yujiao's face turned red, but she bit even harder.

The man carried her into the inn and threw her on the bed, frowning and rubbing his shoulders.

"Lu Ziqian, are you sick?"

"You just can't stand seeing me doing well?"

"I'm saving my brother, how does that bother you? Why do you keep stopping me?"

Lu Ziqian looked at the woman's angry face, but he didn't get angry. Instead, he poured her a cup of tea and handed it to her: "You've been scolding me all the way, drink some water to moisten your throat."

Snapped!

Su Yujiao knocked over the teacup he handed her with a slap, still looking at him coldly.

Lu Ziqian didn't pick it up, but picked up a teacup, poured himself a glass of water, and drank it all in one gulp.

He sat at the table, looking at the angry woman sitting beside the bed, and suddenly laughed softly.

He is good-looking, especially at this moment, with a smile on his face. The moonlight outside the window shines in through the window lattice and pours onto his handsome face, which makes people impressed at first sight.

Lu Ziqian's appearance would make any man's heart beat faster, let alone Su Yujiao who had loved him passionately for so many years.

Seeing him smile, her anger seemed to have dissipated by half.

She turned her face away, not looking at him, and secretly cursed herself for being spineless.

His anger disappears as soon as someone smiles at him. He's really hopeless.

So, she deliberately thought about his previous excessive behavior and ruthless face.

In the end, she was the first to give in. She frowned and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

"Am I so ridiculous in your eyes?"

The man looked at the angry woman in front of him with a half-smile, and said helplessly: "I am laughing at my stupidity. I was deceived by you for so many years."

Su Yujiao instantly exploded: "When did I ever lie to you?"

"You are prone to anger, biting, stubborn, and not gentle. Isn't this just a lie to me?"

"Those gentle, considerate, and obedient things I did before were all fake."

"And you still say you didn't lie to me?"

Su Yujiao blushed. How could that be called a lie? She loved him so much before. Who wouldn't want to show their best side in front of their lover?

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Lu Ziqian walked up to her and touched her head. Su Yujiao was so scared that she quickly dodged and kept a distance from him.

He looked at his empty hand and continued, "But there's one thing you haven't changed. You're still as stupid as ever."

"Before, she was soft, well-behaved, and confused. That was cute."

"To be stubborn and insist on having your own way now is stupid."

Su Yujiao threw a pillow at him: "You are stupid."

Lu Ziqian caught the pillow with one hand: "I didn't stop you from saving people, but you are so stupid. You can't save anyone at all, and you will get yourself into trouble."

"After you enter the palace, the situation inside is uncontrollable, and I can't save you from outside."

"You are my Lu Ziqian's woman, so I will naturally not let you take risks."

Su Yujiao was no longer angry and had become much more rational. She would not impulsively tear up the "Shennong Bencao Jing" like she did that night.

She still regrets it so much that her liver hurts!

"Do you have a better idea?"

"You just want to know about Prince Xiao's illness, right? I'll get you a royal physician so you don't have to risk entering the palace."

Su Yujiao thought about it and decided that this was a good thing. It was indeed very dangerous for her after entering the palace.

She didn't know the situation of the Xiaonan clan's royal court, nor did she know Prince Xiao's condition or temperament. She wondered if he was a tyrant who would kill people if he disagreed with her.

Even if she found an excuse to go to the inn to get treatment tools and escape temporarily, how could she leave the Xiaonan tribe?

She couldn't cure Prince Xiao's illness directly, so she had to go back and negotiate with Concubine Jing.

The more Su Yujiao thought about it, the more depressed she became. She was indeed impulsive in this matter and it would not work at all.

More importantly, if she implicates Boss Zhang and his group, she will be committing a heinous crime.

Su Yujiao glanced at Lu Ziqian. Without his help, this matter would be a wasted trip.

"When do you plan to leave?"

"tonight."

Su Yujiao looked at the man's serious expression and suddenly asked awkwardly, "Why are you helping me?"

"You never make a losing deal, and you do everything with purpose."

When Lu Ziqian heard her evaluation of him like this, the smile on his lips gradually faded and turned into a playful smile.

He was helping her out of kindness, but she said such things to anger him.

"Then what do you think is my purpose in helping you this time?"

Su Yujiao smiled coldly: "If you want to use this matter as a condition for not getting a divorce, then there is no need."

"I'd rather use my own stupid method."

Lu Ziqian leaned on the bed, resting his hands on his head, looking at her with a lazy and noble expression.

"Okay, let's change the terms."

The man looked her up and down, and asked with a half-smile: "What are you going to exchange with me?"
