Dressing as Ziwei makes the Qing Dynasty more powerful

Mrs. Cao closed her mouth unwillingly and dared not say anything more.

Fukang'an waved his hand, stopped talking, and turned his gaze to the little tree spirit boy.

Cao De stood up, glared at Mrs. Cao fiercely, and warned: "Serve you well. If you do anything again, don't blame me for disregarding the relationship between husband and wife." After that, he shook his sleeves and hurried away with his people.

Mrs. Cao sat on the ground in a daze, staring blankly in the direction where Cao De disappeared, as if she had lost her soul.

Ziwei slowly opened her eyes and met the boy's smiling eyes. However, she noticed that the leaves on the boy's head were drooping, making him look listless.

"You..." Ziwei started to speak, but the boy interrupted her.

"Mom, I'm fine, just a little sleepy. I want to sleep for a while." Before he finished speaking, the boy's body shape suddenly changed and turned into a pocket-sized sapling, appearing in front of Ziwei.

Ziwei looked at the sapling in amazement, a strange feeling welling up in her heart. She turned to look at the spot where the big tree had once been, but found it was completely empty, with no trace of the tree. Remembering the boy's words about burying it in the soil, Ziwei couldn't help but feel worried.

At this moment, she saw Mrs. Cao sitting there stupidly for some reason, looking at Fukang'an in confusion, asking him with a puzzled look what had happened.

Fukang'an sneered and kicked Madam Cao, "Get up and serve the princess well. If you dare to act like a demon again, I will make you wish you were dead." He looked at Ziwei carefully and was relieved when he didn't see that she was angry. He couldn't let her misunderstand that he was a man who would hit a woman. The main reason was that this woman was no longer a woman in his eyes.

Madam Cao stood up, bowed to the two of them, then bowed humbly and asked, "I wonder if the princess has any instructions?"

"Prepare a small flowerpot for me to plant this sapling." She held the pocket-sized sapling in her hands with some pity. It was a little weird, but it was still cute.

"Yes!"

After Madam Cao left, Fu Kang'an looked at the servant who was still standing there and said, "Go and get all the doctors who don't have smallpox."

"Yes!"

Now, they were the only two left at the gate. Fu Kang'an's eyes fell on the sapling in her hand, and he couldn't help but sigh in admiration. It was truly amazing that this sapling could actually become a child. He thought to himself that his future life would probably be even more exciting.

"Ahem... Chen'er, what are your plans for this child?" After all, the two of them haven't gotten married yet. Having a child calling her dad and mom out of nowhere is not only against etiquette, but will also ruin her reputation.

Ziwei looked at him suspiciously, "Of course I'll raise him well! It's just a matter of a flowerpot. When we return to the palace, I'll place him in the Imperial Garden. There's plenty of spiritual energy there, and he'll definitely love it."

Fu Kang'an's ears turned slightly red, and he looked away awkwardly. "That's not what I meant. I meant the fact that he called us father and mother."

Seeing this, Ziwei became curious and asked, "Why are your ears red? When he wakes up, just ask him to call you brother or sister. It's not a serious matter."

This wasn't a small matter; he longed for the child he and she would bear together, calling him "Ama" every day. He had even thought of many names for the child, both boys and girls.

"Ahem, nothing. Let's start the experiment once the doctors arrive! We don't know when Master Yu will be able to come."

They hardly had any rest along the way. Even though Lord Yu had become younger, he was still a mortal and would still get tired after riding for a long time.

Yu Wenlong spat out the dust from his mouth, frowning. "How far is this?" He had been running for days, but he still couldn't catch up with the princess and the Fucha boy. Could they rely on their own abilities to travel day and night? He was only two hours late.

Zhao Long took out a steamed bun, ate a few bites, and drank a few sips of water. Then he smiled and said to Wenlong, "Don't worry, Lord Yu. We'll definitely reach our destination in another day and a half. But the smallpox epidemic there is so severe. Do you really plan to enter the epidemic area?"

Yu Wenlong replied firmly, "You've asked me this question no less than five times. As the director of the Imperial Hospital, faced with such a situation, I naturally have to do my utmost. If I can help cure smallpox, a virus that has plagued humanity for millennia, I'd be willing to sacrifice my life for it."

Zhao Long said admiringly, "Master Yu cares deeply about the people of the world. This is truly admirable. Now that we've rested, let's continue on our journey!"

Yu Wenlong stood up, dusted himself off, and said anxiously, "Let's go! Miss Ziwei is waiting for me to help her."

Xiaoyanzi went straight to Huibin Building with two gold ingots in her pocket. Seeing Xiao Jian drinking alone there, she excitedly ran over and said, "Xiao Jian, I have money now. I'll treat you to a drink. Don't leave until you're drunk today."

She picked up the wine jug and poured it into her mouth, looking more heroic than a real man.

Xiao Jian smiled and picked up another pot of wine. "Okay, but drink less. Girls shouldn't drink too much outside."

"Come on, stop being so fussy. You always say that we should enjoy life while we can, and men of the martial arts world don't care about trivial matters. From today on, I, Xiaoyanzi, am a daughter of the martial arts world, hahahaha."

"Okay, then I won't go home drunk today."

Elsewhere, Liu Hong, observing this, hurriedly pulled Liu Qing over to look. "Brother, look at Xiao Yanzi and that Xiao Jian. Isn't their interaction a little strange? I always feel like Xiao Jian seems to be intentionally staying at our guesthouse, and he's overly enthusiastic towards Xiao Yanzi. Not only is he offering to teach her martial arts, he's also telling her a lot about the outside world. Do you have some intentions towards Xiao Yanzi? Is he trying to kidnap her?"

After hearing this, Liu Qing scratched his hair, smiled innocently and said, "That shouldn't be the case, right? Xiaoyanzi is always crazy, who would have any thoughts about her?"

Liu Hong nodded in agreement. "That's true. With Xiaoyanzi's trouble-making personality, which man would be willing to go through the trouble of marrying her? Besides, she's now the Emperor's adopted daughter. She's a noble woman. How could she be easily abducted? You're really thoughtful, brother."

Thinking of all the trouble Xiaoyanzi had caused, Liu Hong couldn't help but feel a headache and shook her head repeatedly. Ever since meeting Xiaoyanzi, the two siblings had been busy making a living and constantly cleaning up Xiaoyanzi's messes. This made Liu Hong extremely upset, but she could do nothing about it. After all, Xiaoyanzi was like a sister to them, so they could only endure these troubles silently.
