The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy
Chapter 295: hate like vinegar
Chapter 295 Hate Like Jealousy
Murong Li showed a pleasantly surprised smile: “Thank you, Princess Zhenguo.”
“But Fourth Prince, I have to tell you this first. If Doctor Hong is also helpless, please don’t blame him.” Bai Qingyan said with a low laugh.
Murong Li stood up and bowed again: “My father’s illness… I know it in my heart. If Doctor Hong can cure my father this time, he will be the benefactor of Dayan! If he cannot cure my father, he will have done his best and will be indebted to me! I know it in my heart.”
She nodded and told Chuntao beside her: “Chuntao, go get Doctor Hong.”
“yes!”
Seeing Chuntao leave, Murong Li sat down on the chair properly and enthusiastically discussed the matters of marching and fighting with Bai Qingyan.
“It is said in the Art of War that terrain is the aid of the army. To predict the enemy’s victory and calculate the distance of dangers and difficulties is the way of a general. Those who know this and use it in battle will win, while those who do not know this and use it in battle will lose.” Murong Li asked very seriously, “In the battle of Wengshan, the Zhenguo Princess defeated the enemy with a small number of troops. Was it because she had a thorough understanding of the terrain?”
“In addition to being familiar with the terrain, you also need to understand the enemy’s usual methods of marching and fighting, as well as their temperament and habits.” Bai Qingyan looked at the serious Murong Li and smiled slightly, “There is a book on military strategy. Knowing yourself and the enemy will ensure victory in a hundred battles.”
Murong Li stood up and bowed to Bai Qingyan: “I am grateful for your advice.”
Soon, Doctor Hong came with Chuntao, carrying a medicine box.
“Doctor Hong, this is the fourth prince of Dayan…”
Doctor Hong bowed to the Fourth Prince and said, “Miss Chuntao has already told me on the way here. Since our princess has agreed, I will go with the Fourth Prince. If I am unable to do it, please forgive me.”
Murong Li thanked Bai Qingyan respectfully, and then thanked Doctor Hong solemnly, and then asked Doctor Hong to leave with him.
After watching Murong Li and Doctor Hong leave, Bai Qingyan stood in the corridor and looked at the bluestone floor in the courtyard. After a moment, he turned around and told Chuntao: “Ask Uncle Ping to go to the farm to pick up Ji Tingyu. I have something to ask you.”
“yes!”
·
After listening to Bai Qingyan’s explanation of the Fourth Prince’s purpose, Dong felt that the Fourth Prince was a filial and sensible child.
“However, Dayan is a foreign country after all. If we let Doctor Hong take his pulse and know his physical condition, will Doctor Hong really be okay?” Mrs. Dong felt a little uneasy.
This matter was agreed upon in advance. After Fifth Aunt gave birth yesterday, Bai Qingyan told Doctor Hong about this matter. Regardless of whether Doctor Hong can cure Emperor Yan this time, they will tell the public that Emperor Yan had a weak disease brought from the womb and needs to be slowly recuperated.
When writing the prescription to Emperor Yan, he also wrote two pieces, one light and one dark, to conceal his identity.
“Mother, don’t worry, Doctor Hong is my elder. I won’t really watch Doctor Hong take risks.”
Mrs. Dong patted Bai Qingyan’s hand and said, “Mother is always confident in your work.”
The Bai family became lively because of the birth of the eighth little girl, Bai Wanqing, and the sisters spent the whole day around little Wanqing.
Mrs. Dong sat by Mrs. Qi’s bed, watching the fifth and sixth girls playing with little Wanqing in the cradle with toys in their hands, and turned to ask Mrs. Qi, “There is something I still need to discuss with you! We planned to leave for Shuoyang on May 1st, but I thought you caught a cold after giving birth, so for safety’s sake you should stay at the Zhenguo Princess’s Mansion, and wait until you have completed the double confinement period before returning to Shuoyang with little Wanqing.”
Qi, who was wearing a headband, lowered her eyes and hesitated a little.
“Just listen to me on this matter. It’s very important for a woman to have confinement after childbirth.” Dong thought of Bai Wanqing’s full-month banquet. “Although we are still in mourning, having a baby is a great joy. Mother just sent someone to tell us that the full-month banquet must be held in a lively manner. Tomorrow, when Xiaoba is having his third day, mother will be back. She will stay until the full-month banquet is over. I will send an invitation to Old Lady Qi, and you can have a good talk with her then. There is no such thing as an overnight grudge between mother and daughter.”
“I understand, sister-in-law.” Qi said with a smile.
Bai Wanqing suddenly burst into tears in the cradle. The nanny picked up Bai Wanqing and walked through the screen. After bowing, she smiled and said, “Our eighth girl is hungry!”
This was the first time that Qi fed a child herself, and it was a terrible ordeal. She had never known that she would be bitten to death by a child. The pain made her scalp numb.
But when she saw her daughter’s cute and fair face, Qi felt that it was worth it to be able to raise her personally.
That night, Lupin and Ji Tingyu rushed back to the Princess Zhenguo’s Mansion.
Bai Qingyan met Ji Tingyu at Guanghua Pavilion in the yard. Lupin and Chuntao were guarding under the rockery to prevent anyone from approaching.
“The east side of Shuoyang is full of mountains, and it’s not easy to be discovered if you hide here. I’ll pick a few people for you… You choose a good place to set up camp, and then I’ll ask Uncle Ping to send people over. You pretend to be bandits and wait here! Try to make some noise before the Bai family moves back to Shuoyang. That way, when the Bai family moves back to Shuoyang, you can train troops and suppress bandits with a legitimate reason.” Bai Qing said.
Ji Tingyu blinked his eyes: “The princess wants to… train private soldiers.”
Bai Qingyan nodded: “Nowadays, the situation and the strength of each country are unpredictable. It seems that the world is peaceful now, but who knows when chaos will break out in the future. It is better to prepare early!”
Bai Qingyan told him the truth, and Ji Tingyu no longer hesitated. He nodded and said, “Don’t worry, Princess. Ji Tingyu will definitely live up to your trust.”
“Remember, even though I asked you to make some noise, don’t really hurt anyone. The people are innocent.”
When Ji Tingyu heard what Bai Qingyan said, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips. As expected… Miss Bai is still the same Miss Bai, upright and caring about the people.
“Don’t worry, Miss. Ji Tingyu will definitely get things done.”
“Uncle Ping!” Bai Qingyan shouted.
Lupin responded by coming up from the rockery: “The eldest girl ordered.”
“Send 20 reliable and loyal servants to accompany Ji Tingyu, and give Ji Tingyu 1,000 taels of silver notes for temporary use. Also prepare 500 taels to be exchanged for small-denomination silver notes and 50 taels of small silver coins. Prepare all of this before Ji Tingyu leaves tomorrow morning.”
Lupin glanced at the one-armed Ji Tingyu and nodded: “Yes…”
“If Ji Tingyu needs anything in the future, send someone back to find Uncle Ping. Uncle Ping, just agree and tell him that it’s my order.”
“yes……”
Ji Tingyu looked at Bai Qingyan’s eyes with hidden sharpness, his heart was surging. He vaguely guessed that Bai Qingyan seemed to be planning something.
The news that the Seventh Young Master Bai Qingjue was alive was concealed, and Bai Qingjue was forced to train his troops in the Tonggu Mountain area.
Now, he was asked to go to Shuoyang first and pretend to be a bandit, so as to train troops and suppress bandits in an open and aboveboard manner.
Their eldest daughter wants to be a soldier!
In troubled times, if you hold military power… you can change the situation at will.
Ji Tingyu tightened his fists slightly at his side. He tried to suppress his excitement. Is the eldest girl planning to rebel against the Lin family?
If… Ji Tingyu would not hesitate to sacrifice his life for the rest of his life.
He had read those volumes of military records, and he knew about the rise of corrupt officials in the court. He also knew that the Grand Princess had a completely different royal style from the Bai family. All these made Ji Tingyu jealous.
