Chapter 597: King Rui's Epidemic
Prefect Tan's heart skipped a beat, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he forced a smile.
"Thank you very much for your praise, Your Highness. I am only doing my duty."
"Is it?"
Di Ran narrowed his black eyes slightly, his attitude was ambiguous, it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry.
Prefect Tan wiped the sweat off his forehead and said with a flattering smile, "Your Highness, I have already ordered someone to clean up the room and prepare a table of fine wine and food in Qingleyuan to welcome Your Highness."
Di Ran's gaze fell on Prefect Tan, his eyes were indifferent and he did not refuse.
"Um"
"Your Majesty, please."
Prefect Tan led Di Ran and others into the mansion.
"I heard that the imperial envoy team has arrived in Jiangzhou, why is there no one there?"
Ji Yunxie mentioned it casually.
Prefect Tan's eyes fell on Ji Yunxie and his brows furrowed slightly, but seeing that the other party was following King Beichen and behaving so intimately, he did not dare to scold him casually. He just looked at King Beichen, hesitating and considering.
"Who is this……"
Prefect Tan had never seen Prince Beichen, so she naturally did not recognize Ji Yunxie. She had never seen Prince Beichen in person before, and only recognized him through his portrait.
"This is my king's lord."
After listening to the explanation of Prince Beichen, Prefect Tan suddenly realized and hurriedly apologized to Ji Yunxie, who looked unhappy.
"So it's Prince Beichen. I'm sorry that I didn't recognize you, Prince. Please forgive me."
Ji Yunxie's fox eyes were slightly cold, and he sneered: "You are quite blind."
He is such a beautiful woman standing next to A Yue. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell the relationship between them. But she can't see it and just ignores it. Isn't she blind?
There was a slight glimmer of annoyance in Governor Tan's eyes, but there was no trace of anger on his face. Instead, he smiled in a very ingratiating manner.
"What Wang Jun said is true."
Speaking of the imperial commissioner, Prefect Tan looked embarrassed and hesitant, as if he didn't know whether he should say it or not.
"It's just that His Royal Highness Prince Rui..."
Seeing that the other party was hesitant, Di Ran frowned and asked, "What's wrong with King Rui?"
Being stared at like this by Prince Beichen, Prefect Tan felt a lot of pressure, sweat broke out on his forehead, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Your Highness, she...she has contracted the plague!"
Di Ran paused slightly, but was not particularly surprised. After all, there were many plagues after the disaster, so she asked Bai Qi and Qing Yi to meet King Rui in advance.
"Where is King Rui now?"
"In...in the backyard wing."
"Take me there." Prefect Tan hesitated: "Your Majesty, Prince Rui has an epidemic, which is contagious..."
Di Ran didn't care at all and said in a cold voice: "I am immune to all poisons, so a mere epidemic won't be a problem."
Prefect Tan was stunned. Immune to all poisons?
He seemed surprised by this secret, but when he saw King Beichen's cold face, he restrained his thoughts.
"Yes, yes, I was overthinking it."
……
Backyard Wing
The arrival of King Beichen was like a shot of adrenaline, making those who came to Jiangzhou with the imperial envoy breathe a sigh of relief and slowly relax their tense hearts.
When I walked into the room, I saw Ji Huashang still lying on the bed unconscious. His face was very pale and he had lost a lot of weight.
When Qingyi saw his master’s happy expression, he quickly stood up.
"master."
Di Ran hummed, and his eyes fell on Ji Huashang: "How is Prince Rui?"
Qingyi replied, "Master, don't worry. The symptoms have been alleviated. You will be cured after taking medicine for another three days."
"Thanks a lot."
"If you can end the plague this time, I will ask His Majesty for credit for you."
Qing Yi smiled and said, "It is a blessing for me to be able to help the master, so there is no need to ask for credit."
Di Ran frowned slightly. How could she let her own people suffer?
"That's it."
Qing Yi was slightly stunned, and said helplessly: "Then... I have a request."
"You said."
"Can it be exchanged for money?"
Di Ran was stunned, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "Money-grubber."
"Hehe, this is just my little hobby."
Qingyi's cheeks turned slightly red, as if she was embarrassed.
Di Ran has always been tolerant of his subordinates, and did not refute her opinion: "Okay, you won't be left without any."
"Thank you, Master."
Qingyi smiled happily.
