Chapter 248 Our sister He!
Chapter 248 Our sister He!
Baili Rushu was followed by several maids. She raised her hand and the maids stopped where they were. Only she came over.
Shu He was about to bow, but she said, "No need to be so polite."
She sat down on the stone bench in the pavilion, her head held high. "So far, you are the first woman to have climbed the city wall and single-handedly repelled tens of thousands of enemies."
"As a princess, I admire you very much!"
Shu He was about to say thank you, but she changed the subject, "However, no matter how great your achievements are, a woman who has been married and has children can never enter our royal family!"
Shu He was stunned. No way? She had guessed it just when he had this little thought?
Could she also have the ability to read minds?
Seeing that she was silent, Baili Rushu thought she didn't want to admit it. "You don't have to deny it, and you don't have to say nice things to deceive me. Sister Xiyun has already told me everything!"
Hearing this, Shu He breathed a sigh of relief.
It turned out that it was Nangong Xiyun who told her.
She was really scared just now, she actually thought she could read minds!
It is true that people should not have evil thoughts, as it is easy to feel guilty!
Seeing that Shu He remained silent, Baili Rushu thought that she was afraid of her identity, so she didn't dare to say much.
Thinking of this, there was a hint of contempt in her eyes.
What the most heroic woman in Apocalypse? She's nothing more than a vulgar person who fears the powerful!
"You're still involved in a murder case, right?" she continued. "This princess can help you solve your case. But I have one request: you must take the child and leave my seventh brother!"
Shu He wanted to laugh, "Princess, are you sure you want me to leave?"
Baili Rushu nodded, "Yes! This princess's words are as good as gold! As long as you leave, I will help you solve those troubles!"
"You are famous and rich now, you should..."
Shu He didn't want to hear any more nonsense and said directly, "But I am the prince's physician. Are you sure you want me to leave before the prince is fully recovered?"
"Oh, right! I almost forgot something!" Baili Rushu suddenly put away her previous arrogant attitude, a hint of worry appeared on her face, and she nervously grabbed Shu He's hand, "Doctor He, how is my seventh brother's health? Is he really going to die?"
"Father received a message from the imperial physician saying that Seventh Brother is terminally ill and could die at any moment! Is this true?"
She got the news by accident, so she racked her brains to drag the Ninth Prince to Beisha City. In fact, she just wanted to see her Seventh Brother for the last time before he died!
Baili Rushu now looked like an ordinary girl next door. All her princess complex had disappeared, and there was no trace of the princess's original domineering look.
Shu He was a little stunned. This girl, her thoughts were so jumpy, weren't they? And her attitude, how could she be a completely different person?
"Don't be silent!"
Seeing her anxious, she didn't seem to be being false. It seemed that this Eleventh Princess had a good relationship with Baili Moqing.
"Three days ago, his condition was exactly as the imperial physician had said. He was terminally ill and could die at any moment."
"What?!" Baili Rushu was stunned for a moment, then angrily shook her hand away and burst into tears, "Seventh Brother! No! Eleven doesn't want you to die!!"
After crying for a while, she stood up again and wanted to go find Baili Moqing. Shu He was speechless and quickly pulled her back.
Does this princess only listen to her tail and not her head?
"Princess, I said it was three days ago!"
Didn’t she understand what three days ago meant?
Baili Rushu stopped crying and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
Without waiting for her to explain, her eyes suddenly lit up with a hint of surprise, "You mean, Seventh Brother won't die now, right?"
"really?"
She couldn't believe it and confirmed it again. When she saw Shu He nod, she shouted.
"Great! Seventh Brother won't die! Seventh Brother won't die! I'll tell the Emperor's uncle right now!"
Shu He was a little confused. He was leaving just like that?
This Eleventh Princess's mood swings are too big, aren't they?
Shu He even suspected that if her skirt wasn't too thick, she would have jumped up at this moment because of her eager pace!
Never mind. After being interrupted like this, her mood improved and her thoughts became calmer.
She still had to hint to Baili Moqing about finding a stepfather for Xiao Yier.
Otherwise he would blame her when the truth came out in the future.
When they arrived at the front hall, there were several large mahogany boxes piled up in the hall. Nanqi and Xizhu were reporting something to Baili Moqing by the window.
"what is this?"
Seeing her come in, Xizhu looked a little unhappy.
This is the prince's meeting room. She, a doctor, came in without even notifying anyone. This is too rude!
On the other hand, Nanqi was not unhappy at all. Instead, he walked over with a smile on his face.
Shu He opened one of the boxes and found it was full of white silver. The silver light was so bright that it could blind people's eyes!
"This, this is the silver that Yang Yousu handed over?"
Nanqi shook his head repeatedly, a somewhat flattering smile on his face, "These are the silvers awarded to you by the emperor! The two boxes below are gold!"
Shu He raised his eyebrows, a gleam in his eyes, "My money?"
Is this true? It’s been published!
Nanqi seemed to see through her thoughts at a glance. He leaned closer and said exaggeratedly, "Oh my God, Heshu, you've become rich! You have so much money, so you don't have to worry about my monthly allowance anymore, right? Can we just write off the debt between us?"
He also wants to save money to get married!
Shu He put away the greed on his face and glared at him, "You wish! You must accept the loss and don't try to cheat!"
The smile on Nanqi's face suddenly disappeared, and he snorted heavily, "Greedy!"
Shu He ignored him. Let him be greedy. This little money was not enough for her to invest in Kyoto!
Still have to make money!
No, I have to cultivate some capable confidants!
She thought of the man named Li Ziwei.
That person is smart, quick to react, good at observing people's words and expressions, kind and tactful, and should be a capable person.
Once things in Beisha City are over, she should return to Kyoto. Perhaps, she can find some people to go to Kyoto to make arrangements first.
Patting the boxes filled with money, she put away her smile and walked towards Baili Moqing, "I have something to tell you."
Seeing her serious look, he couldn't help but feel a little flustered, "What's the matter?"
She didn't say it directly, but stared at Nanqi and Xizhu.
Nanqi understood what she meant instantly and pushed Xizhu out of the main hall.
Xizhu was very puzzled. Why did Nanqi look so scared of her?
This isn't like him! This guy doesn't even care about the princess!
Faced with his contempt, Nanqi rolled his eyes at him.
"What do you know? This woman is no ordinary woman! Have you ever seen a woman wield a sword and chop off a bandit's head without even blinking an eye?"
Xizhu shook his head.
A woman beheaded? Is there such a big grudge?
"That's our eldest sister He!" He raised his thumb and pointed in the direction of the main hall, feeling extremely proud, as if he was praising himself.
"Really? Don't exaggerate! I know you too well! You never tell the truth!"
Nanqi's face darkened, his whole body showing dissatisfaction, "How am I exaggerating?"
"Come, come, let me tell you about the heroic deeds of our eldest sister!"
Xi Zhu was completely stunned. "Big sister?" He called that woman that. Did she know?
You really won’t get beaten?
Nanqi pulled him to sit under the crabapple tree in the West Palace and told him about Shu He's heroic deeds along the way, including the massacre of an entire family in the western suburbs of Yuancheng, the beheading on a snowy night in the eastern suburbs, and the time she offered a brilliant strategy on the city wall, transformed herself into an invincible female warrior, and repelled tens of thousands of Beidi soldiers attacking the city...
Nanqi was talking with his hands and feet gesticulating, and Xizhu was unconsciously absorbed in listening.
He had only read brief reports about these things in letters. This was the first time he had heard such detailed details. It seemed quite exciting.
