I am the champion of palace intrigue, and even the proud prince bows his head in submission.

Chapter 238 Qin Jiuwei's heart skipped a beat.



Chapter 238 Qin Jiuwei's heart skipped a beat.

After a brief pause, he continued, "All supplies entering and leaving the city must be thoroughly inspected, and all those who have come into contact with the disaster victims must be clearly recorded and checked daily in the future."

"All the above matters should be arranged immediately and carefully checked and strictly observed, and there must be no mistakes whatsoever."

The subordinate immediately accepted the order and left.

Xie Yanli was about to step out when a gentle and pleasant voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"Husband, wait."

He turned his head and saw Qin Jiuwei walking lightly towards him, holding a breathing cloth in her hand.

"Put this on before you go out." Qin Jiuwei's eyes showed a hint of seriousness.

She walked up to him, stood on tiptoe, and carefully put the breathing cloth on his head.

Xie Yanli was much taller than her, and upon seeing her movement, he immediately lowered his head slightly to make it easier for her.

After the face covering was put on, Xie Yanli's face was mostly covered, with only a pair of deep phoenix eyes showing.

His gaze was as steady as an ancient well, with slightly upturned corners of his eyes, as if he could see right through people's hearts with every glance.

Even with only his eyes showing, one could sense his extraordinary demeanor.

Qin Jiuwei's heart skipped a beat.

Even with only her eyes showing, she looks so beautiful; there's no one else like her.

However, the thought that this was her husband made Qin Jiuwei's lips curve slightly.

He then lowered his head and continued his examination.

Xie Yanli was going to deal with disaster victims and epidemics, so he would inevitably have some contact with them.

Qin Jiuwei was very worried about him, fearing that he might have also contracted the virus.

A breath covering, a collar—not one was missing.

Even his hands were wrapped with strips of cloth so that not a single part of his body was exposed.

Seeing her looking so alarmed, Xie Yanli smiled slightly and did not stop her.

Firstly, it made him very happy because she cared so much.

Furthermore, knowing that Qin Jiuwei would worry about being home alone, having her do something would make her feel better.

Xie Yanli looked at Qin Jiu's trembling long eyelashes and lowered his head, wanting to kiss her.

But when he realized he was wearing a breathing blanket, he simply rubbed his face against hers.

As Qin Jiuwei was examining herself, she suddenly felt as if something had nudged her.

She looked up and met Xie Yanli's deep eyes.

Just as he was about to speak, Zizhu's voice suddenly rang in his ears.

"Young Master, Young Madam, Physician Meng Qihuang has just arrived in the capital."

Xie Yanli subconsciously looked at Qin Jiuwei and, sure enough, saw a look of joy on her face.

This Meng Qihuang was someone Qin Jiuwei asked him to find.

She said at the time that it was because Meng Qihuang had saved her when she was a child, and she wanted to see him again.

Xie Yanli didn't believe it, but he still used his influence to help her find it.

The truth is sometimes not important; he cares more about whether Qin Jiuwei is happy.

"Bring Doctor Meng to the Marquis's residence."

No sooner had Xie Yanli finished speaking than Qin Jiuwei, who was standing beside him, suddenly spoke up.

"No need to bring it to the Marquis's residence."

Seeing his puzzled look, Qin Jiu smiled slightly, her eyes sparkling as she looked at him.

“Husband, the reason I asked you to find Doctor Meng for me was because he was a highly skilled physician.”

"With the epidemic so severe now, instead of bringing him back to the Marquis's residence, it would be better to let him go directly to treat the epidemic. Perhaps he can cure it, which would be a great help."

Xie Yanli was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, and a thought suddenly popped into his mind.

Did Qin Jiuwei... already know about the epidemic?

That's why he was sent to find Meng Qihuang in advance.

No, it's not just the epidemic, but also what she mentioned before, asking him to pay attention to disaster relief in the south.

The next day, when he inquired, he learned that something had indeed gone wrong with the disaster relief efforts.

Were all of these things she dreamt about?

And then there were all those things that happened before; it seems like she could foresee every major event in advance.

As long as you listen to her, you will be safe and sound.

Master Kongyou said that Qin Jiuwei was the one who saved him from his tribulation.

Now, she has saved far more than just him; she has saved millions of people.

Is it possible...

She is a goddess!

Once that thought popped into Xie Yanli's mind, he could never go back.

Then he went through all the gods, demons, and monsters again.

But in an instant, reason returned.

I forced myself to stop thinking about these things.

The most urgent task is to resolve the epidemic.

He raised his eyes. "What you say makes sense, madam. Let's do it this way. Take Doctor Meng directly outside the city and let him treat the patient."

Upon hearing this, Qin Jiuwei slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

With Meng Qihuang around, this epidemic should be brought under control quickly.

As she watched Xie Yanli stride away, a sense of unease crept into her heart.

Not enough, this is still not enough.

She turned her gaze and inadvertently glanced at Xie Yanli's robes beside her, raising an eyebrow.

Outside the city, in the main tent.

"Dr. Meng, have you ever heard of this disease before?" Xie Yanli asked in a deep voice.

Meng Qihuang frowned, and before he could finish speaking, a servant's urgent report rang out from outside the tent.

"Young Master, someone outside is requesting an audience. She says she is from the Xie family."

The Xie family?

Xie Yanli said without raising his eyebrows, "Let her in."

A moment later, the curtain was lifted, and a figure stepped in.

Xie Yanli looked over and his expression froze instantly.

The newcomer was wearing a dark-colored robe, which was clearly ill-fitting.

The front of the garment was slightly wide, and the cuffs were a little long, making the whole person look like they were wrapped in loose, baggy fabric.

Despite this, her narrow waistline and slender figure still clearly indicate that she is a woman.

She wore a face covering, revealing only her beautiful peach blossom eyes.

Her eyes were clear and bright, with slightly upturned corners, reflecting the lamplight inside the tent, as if they contained a glimmer of starlight.

"Why are you here?" Xie Yanli recognized him at a glance and asked immediately.

"Even dressed like this, you still recognized me, husband?"

Qin Jiuwei was not flustered when she was seen through; she simply tilted her head slightly at him.

Xie Yanli chuckled softly, "Who would mistake their own wife?"

The two remained calm, but Meng Qihuang, standing to the side, panicked instantly.

What?! This handsome young man who just came in is actually the Crown Prince's wife!

He immediately bowed and said, "This humble subject greets the Crown Prince's wife."

Qin Jiu turned her gaze slightly, her eyes falling on Meng Qihuang, and began to scrutinize him closely.

In her previous life, Qin Jiuwei had always been in the palace and had met Meng Qihuang, but had only heard his name.

It was only at this moment that I met him for the first time.

Meng Qihuang had a long face and a square forehead, with thin cheeks, and wore a coarse linen garment that had been washed until it was somewhat faded.

His face was tightly covered with a white cloth, and in addition, he wore an extra veil, completely obscuring his face except for his eyes.

Qin Jiuwei couldn't help but chuckle upon seeing this; indeed, valuing one's life is a common understanding among everyone.

She waved her hand, "Dr. Meng, there's no need for such formalities."

As she spoke, she took out a breath-protecting cloth that she had prepared earlier from her sleeve and handed it to him.

"Dr. Meng might want to try this."

Meng Qihuang looked at the breath-covering cloth, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.

After taking it, he looked down and examined it, discovering that Atractylodes lancea and Artemisia argyi had been sewn into the fabric.

The aroma of the medicine wafted out with his movements.

He raised an eyebrow. "This stuff not only provides protection, but it also contains Atractylodes lancea and Artemisia argyi!"

"Atractylodes lancea is warm in nature and has always been used to dispel dampness and turbidity. Artemisia argyi also has the effect of dispelling foulness and detoxifying. This method is extremely ingenious."

Meng Qihuang nodded, secretly admiring him.

Qin Jiuwei was talking to Meng Qihuang. Although she was dressed in men's clothing, her demeanor remained impeccable.

Instead, it adds a unique charm that combines heroism and allure.

Xie Yanli was also seeing Qin Jiuwei dressed like this for the first time.

He stood to the side, his eyes fixed on her, unable to look away.
