“Okay.” Jing Yi agreed without any hesitation. He looked at the ginger soup on the table that was almost cold. “Drink the ginger soup first.” Su Xiaoxiao picked up the ginger soup and took a sip, frowning.

“What’s wrong?” Jing Yi asked.

Su Xiaoxiao suppressed the discomfort in her stomach and said, “It’s nothing. I probably haven’t drunk it in a long time and I’m not used to it.”

When she drank again, the nausea and retching were gone.

She finished the ginger soup in one go and broke out in a sweat. She felt much better.

The next morning, she was woken up by a commotion. It was the county magistrate of Jia County.

This county magistrate’s surname was Yuan. He was once a scholar who came from two rankings. Because his outstanding performance attracted Xiao Duye’s attention, he was personally picked up by Xiao Duye. Unfortunately, this person was an alcoholic and was demoted to a bitter place after working in the

Hanlin Academy for a few days.

He happened to have something to do yesterday and went to Broken North Pass. He saw two carriages parked beside the official road.

The carriage was not the main point. He recognized the long follower of the First Prince’s residence who often accompanied Xiao Duye.

The guard pretended not to know him, but he was sure that he was not wrong. Look, he had found a courier station today.

Su Xiaoxiao washed up and dressed. When she walked out of the door, Jing Yi was already waiting under the corridor with his sword.

“Have you waited long?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.

“No, I just arrived,” Jing Yi said. “There’s a situation. The county magistrate of Jia County is here and wants to invite King Liang to the county office to recuperate. ”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Recuperation means…”

JingYi said calmly, “Oh, King Liang is sick.”

Xiao Duye was freezing in the snow mountain and started to feel uncomfortable in the middle of the night. This morning, he had a high fever. County Magistrate Yuan came to pay his respects and was frightened to death by his pale face. However, since he was already here, he could only brace himself and invite Xiao Duye to the county office to recuperate.

“Should we let him go?” Jing Yi asked.

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment. “Let him go. We’re going to buy rations in the next few days. We can’t care less about him. Let the county magistrate watch him. He’s more dedicated than us.”

At this moment, in the room next door, Xiao Duye was sitting cross-legged on the bed with a thick cotton blanket. He said to County Magistrate Yuan in a hoarse voice, “I’m traveling incognito this time. Remember, you can’t expose my identity.”

“Yes, yes, yes!” County Magistrate Yuan hurriedly agreed. “I’ll them everyone that you’re a distant relative of mine.”

Xiao Duye weakly gave him a cold gaze that was harmless.

County Magistrate Yuan lowered his head.

Xiao Duye said, “I shall pose as a merchant. You can call me Boss Xiao.”

County Magistrate Yuan hurriedly said, “I understand.”

Su Xiaoxiao and Jing Yi came over.

Su Xiaoxiao took Xiao Duye’s pulse.

County Magistrate Yuan sized up Su Xiaoxiao. “This is…” Xiao Duye said calmly, “My medicine woman’s surname is Qin.”

“Miss Qin.” County Magistrate Yuan cupped his hands.

A medicine woman had a lowly status in the Great Zhou, but as the saying went, a seventh-grade official in front of the Prime Minister was not someone a county magistrate like him could neglect.

He looked at Jing Yi beside him. He had not been in the capital for long and had never seen Young Marquis Jing.

Xiao Duye continued, “My guard’s surname is Jing.”

Qin and Jing were famous surnames in the capital.

However, the two of them should not have anything to do with the Protecto Duke’s Estate and the Marquis of Weiwu’s Estate. Otherwise, how could they be a medicine woman and a guard beside King Liang?

“I’m going out with Jing Yi,” Su Xiaoxiao said to Xiao Duye. Xiao Duye asked warily, “What are you doing now?”

Su Xiaoxiao said seriously, “To get medicine for His Highness.”

Xiao Duye snorted. “At least you have a conscience.”

Xiao Duye was brought to the county office by County Magistrate Yuan.

Su Xiaoxiao brought Jing Yi and Fu Su to buy food.
