"The Righteous One".

"Is the medicine ready?"

"It's just cooked, I've already taken it to the bathroom."

After Qin Suiyou and the others arrived at Yuqing Courtyard, they asked Gao Yu about Beitang Yan's unusual reaction the day before, and then began to give him a medicinal bath.

"Zhengjun, how many times should we take this medicinal bath?"

Today, Shuo Han sent He Dabao and Wei Ming to help again. He Dabao once again held Bei Tangyan's arm, looking somewhat uneasy.

Both he and Wei Ming's fathers were captains in the Zhenbei Army, the army of Beitangyan's maternal grandfather. The two were sworn brothers, but they died on the battlefield before they had much of an memory of each other. Wei Ming's mother died in childbirth, so he was raised almost entirely by He Dabao's mother. After his father's death, he became He Dabao's own brother. They were both selected by Beitangyan's maternal grandfather to enter the army and train to become Beitangyan's personal guards.

Because it was the military camp he had been in since childhood, and Beitang Yan, who was only six years old at the time, was also training with them, he never wanted anyone to get too close during training. Even if he had a close relationship with his personal guards, he would get angry if they touched him unless necessary. Therefore, He Dabao was afraid that Beitang Yan would suddenly wake up and see him, so he was afraid that Beitang Yan would suddenly wake up and see him. He had been apprehensive ever since Qin Suiyou asked him and Wei Ming to help him support him last time.

Fortunately, Qin Suiyou answered him: "Three times in total."

He Dabao was still a little worried and asked, "When will Master wake up?"

"At least until after my surgery."

Qin Suiyou told them about Beitang Yan's treatment plan for the next period of time and gave a brief explanation of the surgery. Although it sounded a bit scary, they couldn't think of a better way at the moment. They had seen many bloody scenes in the army and were not shallow in their knowledge, so they did not question Qin Suiyou's plan.

Hearing this, He Dabao felt a little relieved and breathed a sigh of relief that he no longer had to worry about his claws separating from his body.

Hearing He Dabao mutter "That's good, that's good," Qin Suiyou unfolded his sewing kit and asked, "What are you so nervous about?"

"Forehead……"

Thinking that he still couldn't speak ill of him in front of the emperor, whom he hadn't even met yet, He Dabao quickly shook his head.

"I'm not nervous, I'm not nervous at all."

"Yeah."

Qin Suiyou pinched a gold needle between two fingers and said, "Don't keep things bottled up, or you'll get sick and I'll have to give you a few acupuncture treatments."

Watching the gold needle, as long as his own finger, tremble slightly with Qin Suiyou's movements, and then almost half of it pierced into Beitang Yan's body, He Dabao swallowed hard and said, "No, no need, I'm fine now, please don't worry about me."

Qin Suiyou focused on his work and didn't say anything more, while Wei Ming, on the other side, subtly curled the corners of his mouth as he looked at He Dabao's timid appearance.

Feeling that Beitang Yan's body was gradually losing support from He Dabao, Wei Ming said, "Keep your hand steady and don't get distracted."

He Dabao pulled himself out of his reverie and replied, "My hand is steady. You should take care of yourself."

"We can't let him move now. If he misses the mark, the consequences will be beyond my control."

After being pointed out by Qin Suiyou, He Dabao quickly begged for forgiveness: "I was wrong, I was wrong, I dare not be distracted anymore, please spare my life, Your Excellency."

After that, he shut his mouth and stood quietly, but he would occasionally exchange knowing glances with Wei Ming.

After the process was over, Qin Suiyou and Wei Ming and He Dabao, who had also been by the bathtub, went back to bathe and change clothes, leaving Jinwen and Liu Yao to help Gao Yu with the aftermath.

"Sister-in-law."

"Why are you here again?"

"Does my sister-in-law not welcome me?"

Qin Suiyou, who had just finished showering and whose hair was still wet, looked at the little girl in front of him with a wronged expression and sighed helplessly.

"How could we not welcome our Princess Xinyue? It's just that I don't look presentable in this state, and it's not appropriate for me to be seen by people."

"What's so undignified about it?"

After giving Qin Suiyou an exaggerated once-over, Beitang Xinyue said, “Sister-in-law, your bearing is far superior to those young masters from noble families outside. Who would dare say you’re not presentable?”

Du Ruo, who was holding a handkerchief, said, "Young Master's hair is still wet."

"Oh my God!"

Beitang Xinyue suddenly realized, "I was so focused on looking presentable. Quickly wipe your sister-in-law down, don't let her catch a cold."

Du Ruo looked at Qin Suiyou but did not make a move.

Qin Suiyou said, "You sit in the small hall for a while, and Du Ruo will go and get some snacks."

After giving his instructions, Qin Suiyou took the handkerchief from Du Ruo's hand and went into the inner room. When he came out, Beitang Xinyue was chatting happily with Du Ruo.

Beitang Xinyue was in the middle of her fun and hadn't noticed Qin Suiyou's arrival. She was a little confused when Du Ruo didn't answer her question, but Yun Ying reminded her before she realized what was happening.

"Sister-in-law."

"Ah."

Qin Suiyou responded and sat down, asking, "What are you talking about?"

"I'm telling you, the snacks here are delicious, and the fruit tea is wonderful too."

Qin Suiyou glanced at the table; the two plates of pastries were almost finished, and most of the fruit tea in the semi-transparent glass teapot had been drunk.

"You even brought these with you."

These words were spoken to Du Ruo. On the day she and Du Heng arrived, Qin Suiyou had seen the contents of the four boxes they brought, and they did not include the glass tea set on the table. In Beiqian, glass products are precious items that only princes and nobles can collect. Even if the Prince An's mansion had them, it would most likely not use them to drink fruit tea casually.

Du Ruo chuckled awkwardly and remained silent, while Bei Tang Xin Yue followed Qin Sui You's gaze to the glass tea set on the table. Remembering what Du Ruo had just told her, she excitedly asked, "Sister-in-law, Sister Du Ruo said you have many more glass items, is that true?"

Qin Suiyou nodded: "Indeed, there were, but they were mostly sold off before we came to Yejing."

"what……"

Beitang Xinyue lowered her eyes regretfully, "Father also has a set of glass tea set. It seems to be a wedding gift from an uncle when he married Mother. The complete set is extremely valuable. Father treasures it. I haven't even had a chance to look at it properly."

As she spoke, Beitang Xinyue picked up the glass cup she had just used and held it up to the sunlight. Looking at the shimmering light reflected off it, she couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"Wow, I was so surprised that I didn't get a good look. Sister-in-law, this one is so beautiful. I haven't had a good look at Father's one, but it doesn't seem to be as good as this one."

"Hehe, if I showed this to my father, he would definitely be unable to walk."

After saying that, Beitang Xinyue carefully put down the glass cup and looked at Qin Suiyou expectantly.

"Sister-in-law, where did you buy your glassware from before?"

Beitang Xinyue thought that since Qin Suiyou had a lot of glass products before, even if he sold them, he should still know the channels through which he obtained them.

The reason why Beiqian glass is so precious is largely because there are few people who can make it. However, there are many talented people in the folk. If she could find such a craftsman, she would like to buy a piece. She dares not say too much because she knows the value of glass in Beiqian now. She has saved some money, but it is probably not enough to support buying too much.
