Chapter 45 - Rifle

Seeing Xiao Qingqian's green face, filled with anger, Wei Qing felt extremely comfortable. She suddenly thought of her father and immediately lifted the carriage's curtain to have a look, letting the guards stop the carriage.

"For what?" Xiao Qingqian asked with his mouth stretched tight.

"Go and tell Father that I have returned safely." Wei Qing replied.

Xiao Qingqian frowned, "This king will naturally send someone to inform Prime Minister Wei about this matter."

Wei Qing shook her head, "Not appropriate."

"Oh?" He raised his voice.

"Father definitely wants to see me standing in front of him alive and well so that I can completely relax!"

Seeing that she was so persistent, Xiao Qingqian estimated the time, "Once you're done speaking, hurry up and get on the carriage. After all, the Royal Grandmother's Phoenix Body is more important!"

was displeased by his words, "People are born equal! In the face of pain, no one is special! "

"What are you muttering about?"

Wei Qing had already angered him, and really did not have the guts to continue angering him, hence she kept her mouth shut.

After the carriage stopped, Wei Qing anxiously jumped off it.

Seeing her elated like a sly rabbit, a hint of a smile actually floated in the depths of Xiao Qingqian's eyes.

Ever since Prime Minister Wei received Wei Qing's letter informing him that he was safe, he had always wanted to visit the Tian Village. However, he was afraid that the secret guards of the Prime Minister's residence would discover traces of Wei Qing.

Now that he saw that she was safe and sound, his worries were completely relieved.

"Father, I still need to enter the palace to see the empress dowager, so I can't stay for too long. However, Xiao Qingqian has already agreed to let me in and out of the palace three times in a month.

Therefore, although Wei Qing had very little contact with him, she still had a natural feeling of intimacy with the Prime Minister Wei.

Prime Minister Wei thought she misheard, "Qing`er, you said you wanted to treat the empress dowager?"

The matter of the empress dowager's old illness was no longer a secret within the palace. As she grew older, the empress dowager's old ailments took a toll on her life. Although she'd found many capable people outside, none of them had any way of dealing with the empress dowager's old ailments.

Wei Qing had just said that she would treat the empress dowager's old illness, and the last time she wrote, Wei Qing had said that she was at the feet of the Tian Village. Then the legendary genius doctor was Wei Qing?

When he thought about this, Prime Minister Wei looked at Wei Qing with some disbelief.

"Qing`er, who did you learn medicine from?"

These words, Prime Minister Wei was even more concerned.

This was treating the empress dowager's illness. If it couldn't be cured, it would be a grave crime!

After all, in this period of time, Wei Qing's life was not comfortable and the conflict between the crown prince and the Prince Chu had reached a boiling point.

Wei Qing calculated the time, and felt that she could no longer afford to delay any further, so she said: "Father, don't worry, I am not that kind of person!"

Wasn't he a irritable person?

Prime Minister Wei shook his head helplessly, after Wei Qing left, he changed into his official's uniform and prepared to enter the palace. If Wei Qing was in trouble, he could help to ask for forgiveness.

When Wei Qing and Xiao Qingqian appeared at the same time in Tzu Ning Palace, everyone was stunned.

It had to be known that this time, Old Emperor wanted Xiao Qingqian to go to the Tian Village to find a genius doctor, but he didn't.

Xiao Hanqi looked at Xiao Qingqian with a disdainful smile, "Third brother, did you not invite the genius doctor?"

"Royal brother might not know, but Royal Brother knows nothing about Imperial Physician Wang's skills!"

These words were extremely laughable, Xiao Hanqi actually could not hold back and laughed out loud.

The empress dowager had suffered from an old illness. Everyone in the palace had a worried expression, and his laughter was rather sudden.

Looking at the Old Emperor's pair of cold eyes, he hurriedly stopped smiling and said in a deep voice: "Third brother, if you don't manage to get this genius doctor to come for you in the beginning, you don't have to go through so much trouble. I can go there!"

"If Royal Brother had wanted to personally come and invite me, he wouldn't have said it!" Xiao Qingqian impolitely replied.

Xiao Hanqi's face changed, but in a moment, he was back to normal.

Wei Qing maintained her silence, quietly watching the two of them fight back and forth.

The Old Emperor coughed lightly as his gaze moved onto Wei Qing, "Wei Qing, why didn't I know in the past that you knew medicine?"

Wei Qing knelt down and replied naturally: "Reporting to the Emperor, Wife was indeed not good at medicine previously. One night in my dreams, I met an old man with a white beard and white eyebrows. After he spoke a few words with Wife, Wife had somehow mastered medicine!"

"Oh?" Old Emperor raised his eyebrow, "There's actually such a magical thing?"

Wei Qing did not show any sign of fear, and only nodded her head.

"Then, Tian Village's Godly Doctor is Third Sister-in-Law?" Xiao Hanqi naturally would not let go of any opportunity that would cause Xiao Qingqian to lose face, as he stared at Wei Qing aggressively.

Wei Qing frowned, "It is indeed me!"

"That's strange! "Why would a good third sister-in-law suddenly come to Tian Village?"

Xiao Qingqian clenched his fist tightly under his sleeve. This damned woman, he already knew how to show off, if he had said no directly just now, how would Xiao Hanqi have found an opening?

Having clearly seen Xiao Qingqian's face which was so black that ink could drip from it, Wei Qing didn't think much of it and raised his brows.

"This humble one has a grudge with the prince!"

With a "hong" sound, a bolt of lightning exploded inside Xiao Qingqian's brain. He stared fixedly at Wei Qing, wishing that he could strangle her to death.

Xiao Hanqi held back his laughter, Xiao Qingqian's heart was full of Tian Sisi, and had actually forgotten about him. Just look, this was an opportunity, and Wei Qing was going to sell him out!

He was happy to watch a good show, so he shook his head towards Xiao Qingqian, and spoke sincerely: "Third brother, royal father often said that the Qi family that governs the nation is at peace, and the matters at the rear courtyard are not properly handled. I am truly worried about whether or not this matter regarding the defense of the city can be properly handled!"

Xiao Qingqian narrowed his eyes and was just about to say something, but Wei Qing interrupted first: "Your Highness the crown prince might not know, but this concubine is angry because he is too focused on the defense of the city and does not have much time to accompany me.

Thus, in a fit of anger, I secretly ran to Tian Village. That day, I happened to encounter a child drowning and no longer had the heart to breathe. I used a method of burying earth to save him and saved him! "

The reason she said that was not because she was kind enough to help Xiao Qingqian, but because there was no wall that was impervious to the wind in this world. This time, if Tian Sisi got the chance, she would definitely take revenge, so she had to block Tian Sisi's way ahead of time.

But, those words, in Xiao Qingqian's ears, had turned into her helping him out!
