No matter which one it was, he was unwilling to hurt them.
However, it was impossible for Su Qi to leave with him at this moment. Although he did not know what she wanted to do, he could tell that she would not give up easily. Moreover, if Su Qi did something that hurt Yuan, how would he deal with it?
All these thoughts lingered in Xiao Chengzhe's mind for the entire night, leaving him wide awake.
When the first ray of sunlight from the east shone into the room, Xiao Chengzhe sighed in his heart. He looked at Suqi in his arms and left a kiss on her forehead.
Su Qi seemed to have sensed something. She pouted, turned around, and fell asleep again.
Xiao Chengzhe could not help but laugh when he saw her adorable look. He wished he could see her like this every day, but time waited for no one. He had to leave.
By the time Suqi woke up, Xiao Chengzhe's warmth was no longer around her. However, when she thought of how he had specially come to deliver the news to her yesterday and spent the night with her, her heart was filled with warmth, and a smile overflowed from her lips.
Cyanosis came in and saw his Miss sitting at the head of the bed with a smile on her face. She looked a hundred times warmer than usual and her mood improved.
"Why is little master so happy today? Is there something happy?”
The cyanotic man thought that Su Qi was so happy because of the emperor's actions yesterday. When Su Qi saw her like this, she collected her emotions and ignored her adjustment. She just let her help tidy her clothes and then went to take care of her herbs.
At this moment, Lu Rao hurried over. She stood beside the herbal field and shouted,"Little Master, something happened!"
Su Qi frowned and put down the hoe in her hand. She walked over and said,""What's the hurry?"
"I heard from the outside that the flood in Ring City has stopped, but there's a plague. At this time, the plague is rampant in Ring City and the surrounding areas.”Lu Rao roughly explained the matter, her face filled with worry.
Su Qi was stunned. She had actually forgotten.
Damn it, she actually forgot that the waterlogging disaster was not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing was the various reactions caused by the waterlogging disaster. This plague was the most terrifying effect. It seemed that she would be busy again this time.
"How will the emperor handle this?" "Is there any effective solution?" Su Qi asked Lü Rao in a low voice.”
Lu Rao shook her head. Seeing that there was no one around, she said in a low voice,"The emperor has already sent the imperial physician, but the news hasn't come yet. However, Prime Minister Xiao's people have sent news that they haven't found an effective way to deal with it. I'm afraid that the Imperial Academy of Medicine has no other way.”
Su Qi's brows furrowed. She could not make a good decision for a moment.
At this moment, he was already a member of the harem, so he could go out as he pleased. However, if he did not personally go to the plague, how could he get along?
Forget it, forget it. Let's wait and see. Maybe the Imperial Academy of Medicine can solve it.
A few days later, the plague spread and was not suppressed at all. Not only did the imperial physician sent not have a cure, but he also contracted the plague and could not save himself.
The Xili Abyss was angry in court, causing everyone to tremble in fear. They were deeply afraid that the fire would accidentally burn them.
Su Qi couldn't just sit back and do nothing. After thinking about it, she brought Lü Rao to the royal study to look for the West Li Abyss.
At this moment, the official in the royal study was furious. The ministers did not even dare to breathe, afraid that they would be the next one to be implicated.
Su Qi had just walked to the door of the royal study when she was pulled back by Eunuch Jin. He said,""Mistress Su, currently Mistress is discussing the plague with the ministers and is in a fit of anger. Mistress Su should go back first.”
When Su Qi heard this, she smiled and was about to say something when she heard the furious roar of the Xili Pool from the royal study.""What use do I have for you!"
She sighed and said to Eunuch Jin,""I'd better go in and persuade him. Eunuch Jin, thank you for your kindness.”
Then, Su Qi walked in.
At that moment, Xiao Chengzhe and a few ministers were in the royal study. The atmosphere was tense.
Su Qi bowed to the West Li Abyss and said to the ministers,""You can go down first and prepare in your own residence. The Emperor will summon you at any time if there's anything.”
Seeing that the Emperor had no intention of opposing, the ministers hurriedly bowed and retreated.
Su Qi smiled lightly at Xiao Chengzhe, then said to the Xili Abyss,""Don't be angry. They're not doctors.”
The Xili Abyss knew this fact, but there was nothing they could do about it.
"Why are you here?" Xili Yuan suppressed the anger in his heart. His expression was completely different from before.
Seeing the gentle expression on the Xili Pool's face, Xiao Chengzhe was stunned, but he could not say anything.
Xiliyuan looked at Suqi and asked her to sit beside him. Suqi was feeling extremely uncomfortable, as if she was sitting on pins and needles. Moreover, Xiao Chengzhe was still standing there. It was as if she had been caught in an affair. "I'll help you." Su Qi sorted out her emotions and said.”
Suqi looked at Xiao Chengzhe carefully, hoping that he would not be angry.
However, Xili Yuan did not notice her small movements. He rubbed his head affectionately and said,""What can you do to help?"
"I am a doctor." Su Qi stood up, knelt down, and said,""ChenQie requests the imperial edict to go to Ring City to cure the plague.”
"No!"
Xiliyuan and Xiao Chengzhe stopped him at the same time.
The two of them looked at each other. Xiao Chengzhe saw the confusion in the eyes of the Xili Abyss.
Since when did Zhe care so much about Suqi? Didn't he hate her? Xili Yuan's heart was filled with doubts.
"The harem is not allowed to interfere with political affairs." Xiao Chengzhe said coldly.
Only then did Xili Yuan put away his doubts and said,""Suqi, don't mess around. This is not a joke.”
"Don't worry, I'm also a doctor, and I've done some research on the plague. I can't just let the plague spread like this. Moreover, if I go, it's equivalent to the emperor going.”Su Qi said confidently.
"Yuan, this matter is not advisable."
Xiao Chengzhe was a little worried that the West Li Pool would agree to Su Qi's request. This made him very worried. It was not fun there, and it could take Su Qi's life at any time.
Xi Liyuan thought about it and was still worried about letting Suqi go. He said,""Suqi, you should go back."
Su Qi stomped her feet and was a little angry." If you don't let me go, I'll go secretly."”
Looking at Su Qi's determined expression, the two of them looked at each other. They really couldn't do anything to her.
"Zhen is worried about you going alone." Although Xili Yuan was somewhat relieved, he was still worried." Why don't I go with you?"”
"No, Yuan, let alone me, the other ministers will not agree to this.”Xiao Chengzhe shook his head and said,"Why don't I go with…Noble Su?"?”
Su Qi nodded." Yes, how can you go? You are the emperor."”
Xiliyuan thought for a moment and agreed. He issued an imperial edict and appointed Xiao Chengzhe as the imperial envoy. Su Qi would go with him as a noble in place of the Emperor to calm the people.
Su Qi took the imperial edict and returned to You Lan Palace. She tidied up her clothes and planned to leave immediately. This matter could not be delayed.
Xili Pool looked at Xiao Chengzhe and said,""Be careful and take good care of Suqi for me.”
Xiao Chengzhe nodded. Actually, he would have taken good care of Suqi even if Yuan didn't say anything.
The next day, outside the capital, Xiliyuan sent Suqi and Xiao Chengzhe off.
"Be careful on the way and take good care of Suqi.”Xiliyuan patted Xiao Chengzhe's shoulder. Xiao Chengzhe bowed slightly, then mounted his horse and set off.
Su Qi sat in the palanquin." Emperor, I will take good care of myself. Please take care of yourself."”
Xili Yuan was a little reluctant to part with them, but he knew that this was not the time to linger. He waved his hand and let them leave.
Su Qi's proud son gradually walked further and further away. Xili Pool stood at the city gate and did not leave for a long time until they could no longer see the shadow of that group of people. I was the only one left in the cold palace. Su Qi, come back early."
Along the way, Su Qi kept telling them to speed up. She was worried that if they were delayed for a second, one more person would be infected with the plague and die. Xiao Chengzhe, on the other hand, felt his heart ache when he saw Suqi's pale face. Seeing that the sky was gradually darkening, he ordered them to set up camp to rest and cook.
Su Qi got off the sedan chair and walked straight to Xiao Chengzhe. "Why did you stop?"
"Aren't you tired? Besides, it's getting late. They have to rest even if you don't.”Xiao Chengzhe saw that her face was pale and could not help but frown.
Su Qi thought for a moment. That was right. She was too anxious. She scratched her head in embarrassment.
"Why do you look so pale? Are you feeling unwell?”Xiao Chengzhe frowned and said with heartache.
Su Qi patted her cheeks and pouted.""Is that so? Perhaps she was not used to such a long ride and was just a little tired.”
Xiao Chengzhe shook his head helplessly. This little fool, why did she not know how to take care of herself? Hence, he held Suqi's hand and walked towards the largest tent. Su Qi was startled by him. Fortunately, there was no one around. Everyone was busy with their own matters. She was relieved and followed him.
"Have a good sleep first. I'll wake you up when dinner is ready.”Xiao Chengzhe pulled Suqi to the bed and let her lie down.
Su Qi did not mind at all. She only saw that he cared about her so much that she had no reason to reject him.
"Then I'll sleep for a while. You should go and rest too.”
Xiao Chengzhe nodded and covered Suqi with the blanket." You should sleep. I'll leave after you fall asleep."”
Su Qi smiled and closed her eyes. Perhaps it was because she was really tired, or perhaps it was because she felt at ease with him around, but she fell asleep soon after.
Xiao Chengzhe enjoyed watching her sleep soundly. He tidied up Li Suqi's messy hair, and his face was filled with happiness, making him look even more flirtatious.
After a while, Xiao Chengzhe got up to check on the preparations outside.
The sky was already dark. Since they were going to cure the plague, Su Qi didn't let Zi Gan and Lu Rao follow them. Thus, the food could only be prepared by those people. Xiao Chengzhe was afraid that Suqi would not be used to these rations, so he went to the forest to hunt a rabbit and roasted it for Suqi. He took the roasted rabbit and walked into the tent. When he saw that Su Qi was still asleep, he placed the rabbit on the table and turned around to wake Su Qi up.
