A crown princess who doesn't do infrastructure construction isn't a good doctor.
Chapter 12 Leaving the House
The masters of the Prince An's mansion usually had the habit of taking a midday nap, but after lunch, the Prince An and his wife, along with Beitang Xinyue, wanted to see Beitang Yan, so they followed Qin Suiyou to Yuqing Courtyard.
Prince An was somewhat reserved, but Princess An and Beitang Xinyue went directly to Beitang Yan's bedside.
Whether it was psychological or not, looking at her son lying on the bed, Princess An felt that his complexion was rosier than it had been a few days ago.
A gentle smile appeared on her beautiful face. "My son will definitely wake up."
Prince An stood behind his wife and patted her shoulder reassuringly.
Beitang Xinyue also said happily, "Sister-in-law is really amazing. I saw that all those imperial physicians tried their best but couldn't improve my brother's complexion. Sister-in-law, you made a move that surpassed all of them."
Qin Suiyou asked, "How did Xinyue know it was working?"
Before Beitang Xinyue could answer, Princess An spoke first: "Yue'er and Yan'er have been close since childhood. Perhaps it is a blessing from heaven that the two siblings have a wonderful connection that only twin siblings have in legend. They can even roughly know each other's physical condition."
"That's amazing, it's truly a gift from heaven."
Qin Suiyou outwardly expressed surprise and agreement, but in reality, based on what he learned from the Lu brothers and the unexpected presence of Beitang Yan, he had other thoughts about the connection between the siblings.
Beitang Xinyue said with some pride, "Perhaps it's because of this strange feeling that my brother and I have similar views on certain people and things, so I think my brother will definitely like sister-in-law very much."
As she spoke, she lowered her head slightly, feeling a little shy.
After listening to what Beitang Xinyue said, Princess An affirmed, "Suiyou is a talented young man who not only knows medicine but is also good-looking. If Yan'er doesn't even like someone like that, he must be out of his mind."
After he finished speaking, two somewhat awkward coughs were heard, coming from Prince An.
Princess An ignored him, but Beitang Xinyue was clever and wanted to save face for her father.
"Although Father is no longer a young man, he is still a handsome man full of talent. Otherwise, Mother wouldn't have looked down on Father before, would she?"
Upon hearing this, Princess An blushed and scolded softly, "You little brat, how dare you make fun of your mother? You should be disciplined."
Beitang Xinyue looked to her father for help, and Princess An added, "It won't help even if you ask your father."
Prince An remained calm and collected. At this moment, he could not disobey his wife, otherwise he would be the one to suffer. He "sold" his daughter in a very thorough manner.
Seeing that her father was unreliable, Beitang Xinyue rolled her eyes and walked directly to Qin Suiyou's side.
"Sister-in-law, didn't we agree that you would teach me medicine? Let's start now, let's go."
"Moon, your sister-in-law has only been busy all morning, don't disturb her rest."
After saying this, Princess An stepped forward.
"Child, you've really worked hard. We'll head back to Shi'an Academy now. You should rest well. We'll talk about teaching her medicine later. If you need anything later, remember to tell your mother or your father. Don't be shy."
Qin Suiyou nodded and said, "Alright, Mother and Father, please take care. I'll see you off."
"No need to deliver, it's all at home..."
……
Beitang Yan's treatment schedule was short these few days. Qin Suiyou had nothing to do in the afternoon, and he spent the time discussing the prescription for the medicinal bath with Li Yuanyuan. After having dinner together, they went back to their rooms to rest.
The next day, Qin Suiyou decided to leave the manor since he didn't need to perform the Qi-guiding technique or take a medicinal bath.
"What? What day is it today? You actually want to go out?"
Perhaps because he died from overwork in his previous life, Qin Suiyou became an exceptionally reclusive person after arriving in this world. Even when he had something to do, he would try every possible way to avoid going out. He was only able to leave Zhongzhou City and go to so many places because of a heavy responsibility. He was usually very reluctant to go out.
Lu Xi was very surprised because he knew Qin Suiyou's current temperament very well.
"What's wrong? Did something happen outside? I didn't even know!"
Ignoring Lu Xi's impending wild imagination, Qin Suiyou changed into a simple and elegant outfit that didn't reveal his status. A warm and smooth white mutton fat jade pendant hung at his waist. The quality was excellent, but it wasn't particularly noticeable against his clothes unless you looked closely.
After getting ready, he prepared to go to Princess An's residence to say hello. Unlike Lu Xi, he didn't need to go to the palace to announce his departure and get a token, but it was still better to tell Princess An in order to show respect.
"Hey! Wait for me..."
Qin Suiyou originally planned to bring Lu Xi with him, but when he went to say hello, Prince An said it would be better to bring more people for safety. He then directly ordered Shuo Han, the captain of Beitang Yan's personal guard, to select a few people to follow.
The personal guard was made up of the best of the best from the guards of the Prince An's mansion. Shuo Han was not only the captain of the personal guard, but also the commander of the guards of the Prince An's mansion.
Prince An's original intention was simply to send a few skilled men to protect Qin Suiyou's safety and prevent him from being offended by fools. However, Shuo Han personally accompanied him and even assigned two others to accompany him. These were the two men who had helped him during the medicinal bath the day before.
As they went out, they saw a carriage parked there. Qin Suiyou and Lu Xi got in first. There was only enough space for the driver and two other people outside, so they let the guard who looked young yesterday also get into the carriage.
The coachman didn't even need to crack the whip; he simply said "Giddy up," and the horse began to pull the carriage at a leisurely pace.
In the carriage.
Qin Linsuiyou looked at the young-faced guard and said, "I forgot to ask yesterday, what's your name?"
The person sitting opposite him replied enthusiastically, "In response to your question, my name is He Dabao, a name given to me by my mother."
Qin Suiyou said with a smile, "Then your mother must love you very much."
He Dabao smiled shyly and said, "I think so too, but when she beats me, she never holds back."
Although it sounds like a complaint, it's clear that He Dabao is quite happy, suggesting he has a very good relationship with his mother.
"By the way, the guy with me yesterday is called Wei Ming. He's a money-grubber. When you took out that pair of gold needles, I saw that his eyes were glued to it. He's just good at pretending, so that people who don't know him can't see his true nature."
When He Dabao said this, he deliberately lowered his voice, but the two people outside were skilled in martial arts and had excellent hearing. They heard him very clearly, but both of them were people who did not show their emotions. Their expressions did not change at all.
He Dabao continued, "Our captain's name is Shuo Han, you should know that. He seems to be naturally expressionless..."
“There are other brothers as well, I’ll introduce them to you when you meet them…”
Along the way, Lu Xi and He Dabao chatted as if they had met a long-lost relative. Apart from Qin Suiyou saying a few words at the beginning, the two of them kept rambling on and on, complaining about this and sharing that, and no one interrupted them. It was quite lively for a while.
When they reached Xijin Road, Qin Suiyou had the coachman call the horse to stop.
Xijin Road is the most bustling part of Xizheng Street, with countless shops and restaurants, and it is always very lively.
The groom was left to guard the place, while the rest of the people followed Qin Suiyou and began to stroll around.
The five people were led by Qin Suiyou, with the other four standing in pairs behind him.
Lu Xi originally wanted to walk side by side with Qin Suiyou, but Shuo Han grabbed her arm. Because she had stepped over him a few days ago, Lu Xi still felt a little guilty. In addition, Shuo Han's expressionless face, dark eyes, and even colder temperament than Lu Yu made Lu Xi a little afraid of him. Without daring to ask why, she obediently walked alongside him.
In fact, Shuo Han didn't intend to do anything. It was just that according to the rules, when traveling, unless there were special circumstances, servants were required to walk half a step behind their masters. There weren't many rules in the Prince An's mansion, but these were habits that had been followed since childhood due to their status and could not be changed.
Standing next to his master was against the rules. Shuo Han felt that he couldn't control what happened before, but now that he was in the Prince An's mansion and following Qin Suiyou, the heir apparent, Lu Xi was no longer an ordinary servant and had to learn these rules to avoid causing trouble in the future.
Even when Lu Xi couldn't win an argument with Qin Suiyou and his brother Lu Yu, he was always full of arrogance. It was rare to see him so obedient without saying a word, which made Qin Suiyou happy to have some peace and quiet.
Qin Suiyou wandered aimlessly, stopping and starting along the street for more than half an hour, buying a lot of things along the way.
"Shuohan, take Weiming and Dabao to put the things in the carriage first. Lu Xi and I will reserve a private room at Sanweixuan and wait for you. After lunch, I want to take another stroll."
Originally, Qin Suiyou politely addressed Shuo Han as Commander Shuo, but perhaps because Qin Suiyou was treating Beitang Yan's injuries, Shuo Han treated Qin Suiyou with great respect and asked Qin Suiyou to call him by his name directly.
This surprised Wei Ming and He Dabao. Based on their understanding of Shuo Han, he was definitely not the type to take the initiative to show goodwill to others. Although Qin Suiyou was Beitang Yan's rightful ruler and was healing him, it was not enough to make Shuo Han, who was only loyal to Beitang Yan, show goodwill to him.
Shuo Han replied, "Yes."
"Oh, and remember to bring some hot food for Uncle Ma. He'll have to keep watch for a while."
Uncle Ma was the coachman. He happened to be surnamed Ma, loved dealing with horses, and was an excellent driver.
He was the one who drove the carriage when the master of the Prince An's mansion needed to travel. He was also an old man in the Prince An's mansion. When he wasn't driving, he was the second most important steward in the mansion after Granny Ye and Gao Xiang.
These were things He Dabao said to Qin Suiyou and Lu Xi while they were still in the carriage. Uncle Ma overheard them and even shyly made a few self-deprecating remarks.
"I've remembered, Your Excellency, please rest assured."
After receiving the order, Shuo Han, along with Wei Ming and He Dabao, each took some things and headed towards the carriage.
