C175 In an instant (1/2)
By the time the carriage had arrived at the Ferguson Realm, it was already evening.
Not only did Shen Yu and Shen Bao see the princess, they also saw the young prince of Zhaoping.
This time, he would be able to squander his wealth unrestrainedly.
Of the large table of food, only two masters were qualified to eat it.
But as for who we are, we share both good fortune and bad troubles. Therefore, we called in the two Huobao brothers.
Just like that, the four of them raised their goblets in celebration. What were they going to celebrate? Of course, he had to deal with the matter of the land as soon as possible.
Eat and drink to your heart's content, sleep, and wait for tomorrow.
However, things went much more smoothly than they had expected.
It was Chen Lin who took the initiative to find them.
”My son is sick and needs a very expensive medicinal plant. If you have it, I'm willing to give you that piece of land.” When Chen Lin said these words, his tone was filled with helplessness.
On one side was the memories he had with his wife, and on the other side was his cute son. If his wife was alive in heaven, she would also choose to save him.
”Don't worry, I'll get the best doctor to treat Chen Xiao.”
Of course, the best doctor she spoke of was naturally the Imperial Palace.
Chen Lin was overwhelmed by the favor he received. His son, a mere commoner, was able to receive treatment from the imperial physician. This was all thanks to her good fortune.
Zhaoping had just arrived at the Scarlet Mountain Range, and hadn't stayed for even a day before returning. He said he wouldn't do anything, but it wasn't that he was angry, it was just that it was rare to come out and the scenery here was so beautiful that he couldn't bear to part with it for the time being.
Qi He didn't insist. ”Stay here for a while longer. It won't be too late for you to return to the Emperor's side.”
Actually, it was all thanks to him saving her while she was on the way, and now that the matter of the land exchange had been settled, it seemed that Zhaoping was really her lucky star.
Well, treat him well, treat him like a family member.
”Alright, I'll send more people to escort you back.” Zhao Ping didn't dare to joke about her safety.
”Actually, Shen Yu and Shen Bao shouldn't be too big of a problem.” Qi He didn't like to work hard and didn't want to owe him a lot of favors.
She could even use a dog to repay the favor she owed in the past, but now … Alas, it hurt to think of those dogs she had collected.
Zhao Ping shook his head. ”One more person is enough for safety. Besides, Chen Xiao can't help but be scared.”
To be able to catch such an illness at such a young age, it was fortunate that he encountered them. Otherwise, it would have been difficult to treat.
For the poor families, money was a huge problem.
Qi He didn't think about this, but now that he mentioned it, he felt that it made sense, so he could only agree, ”Then, thank you very much.”
”There's no need for you to be polite with me.” The current Zhao Ping was very different from the previous Zhao Ping.
Perhaps, the growth of a person was just a matter of time.
Before, he could have jumped into the river for her sake, but now, he wouldn't do such a stupid thing. It wasn't because he didn't love her, but because he felt that it would be better to protect her if he forced her to be with him.
Until she found someone she liked.
Qi He did not waste too much time as he brought Chen Linjian and his son to the imperial capital.
Only the Imperial Palace had the precious medicinal ingredients.
”You officials and nobles are really good people, unlike us poor citizens who can only wait for death when they get a serious illness.” Chen Lin pulled his son into his embrace and said to Qi He.
