The house was very lively, far from the deserted streets outside, and a group of servants greeted the guests in front of the mansion with great hustle and joy, and it was completely impossible to see that this was the northwest where the plague was rampant.

Shen Ruohua's carriage stopped in front of the state capital, but she was not in a hurry to go down, she just opened the curtain and looked at the guests coming in and out, and it could be seen that they were all first-class officials and wealthy gentry from Datong Mansion.

She lowered the curtain and asked Yaotao: "Can someone bring the news to Liang Jiajun?" โ€

Yao Tao nodded: "I have already brought the lady's words to General Qi." She paused, pursed her lips and smiled: "General Qi is very worried, so let him send him a message immediately if something happens." โ€

Looking at Yao Tao's smile, Shen Ruohua suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and turned his face away: "It's going to be fine, so he doesn't have to worry." โ€

Yao Tao covered her mouth and smiled: "The lady doesn't know, I heard that General Qi insisted on refusing and insisted on coming to the banquet, or those generals persuaded him, saying that there were many affairs in the camp and he couldn't leave him, so he reluctantly agreed to stay in the camp, and he also commanded this." She looked at Shen Ruohua narrowly: "General Qi is really concerned about the safety of his mother. โ€

Shen Ruohua's face was already hot, she reached out to open the curtain and walked out by herself: "I don't know what the situation will be for a while, it's not easy for him to take care of when he comes." He refused to admit it at all, because he was afraid that Xue Maoye would also do something to Qi Mingrui.

Yao Tao followed with a smile: "That's what the lady said." โ€

The girl respectfully led Shen Ruohua into the state capital, turned the front hall and the hall, and arrived in the inner hall of the state capital, Xue Maoye and a cadre of officials and rich gentry had already sat down on their seats, talking and laughing.

Seeing Shen Ruohua come in, Deng Lun hurriedly got up and greeted him with a group of officials: "Lord Shen." โ€

Those rich gentry also got up and bowed to the side, but they were very surprised, they had heard that the palace had sent a female doctor. I never thought that it was such a young and beautiful woman, it was really unheard of.

Xue Maoye watched Shen Ruohua come in in a female official robe, his eyes turned cold, but a smile appeared on his face: "Female Doctor Shen, hurry up and enter the table." โ€

He sighed: "You have traveled from Kyoto to the northwest in a tiring car, and you have worked hard to diagnose and treat patients, and you have taken the medical officers to administer medicine to cure the plague, which is really hard work!" He shook his head and said, "Even the house where I live is next to the sick house, and I am ashamed to have no regard for my own safety!" โ€

Deng Lun and his colleagues are all like human spirits, and they are all busy touting: "Master Hou also came all the way to the northwest to send these many urgently needed medicinal materials to save the people from fire and water, and solve the urgent need!" โ€

"That's right, Lord Hou and Lord Shen are really timely rain, if the two of them don't come, Datong Mansion will be in danger!"

Shen Ruohua watched quietly as they praised and flattered each other, sat down calmly, and let Yao Tao pour hot tea for her and eat it slowly

Xue Maoye looked at Shen Ruohua unmoved, his eyes were even colder, interrupting everyone's flattery, and instructed Deng Lun: "Since everyone is here, let's order the banquet, Mo Yan delayed Female Doctor Shen to go back to administer medicine." โ€

Deng Lun hurriedly agreed, clapped his hands, and a team of dancing girls dressed in bright tunic costumes rushed in, bowing to everyone at the table, their posture like swallows dancing lightly to the music, and their gestures were full of charm and exotic customs.

Deng Lun smiled and said to Xue Maoye: "As the saying goes, there is no banquet without music, these dancing girls are all sent by the Golden Horde, although they are not as brilliant as Kyoto, but they are also unique, and I also invite Hou Ye and Lord Shen to watch." โ€

Xue Maoye was originally full of thoughts on Shen Ruohua, but the dancing girl in front of him was so charming that he couldn't help but take his eyes off it, and couldn't help but applaud when he looked at the figures dancing in a group.

Shen Ruohua glanced at him, a sneer appeared on his face, and glanced at Yao Tao, who realized that he owed a debt and retreated quietly.

When the dancing girl finished dancing, she bowed down and stepped aside in sweat, winning the applause of everyone at the table, Deng Lun smiled and ordered: "Let's start the table." โ€

The girls brought plates of steaming delicacies to each guest, and poured wine for the guests, and the banquet was lively.

Deng Lun stood up first, raised his glass and said loudly: "Today's banquet is specially for the Marquis of Guangping and Lord Shen to catch the wind and wash the dust, and it is also our heart, respect the two adults!" "Drink it all.

Xue Maoye slowly ate the wine in the wine glass in his hand, watched Shen Ruohua slowly and methodically use the food in front of her, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he talked to Deng Lun on the side proudly.

Shen Ruohua only had a few drinks, then rejected other people's toasts, and quietly ate the dishes in front of him, without even looking at Xue Maoye, completely ignoring the flattery and praise of others.

On the corridor outside the door of the inner hall, Yao Tao sat coldly on the railing, with a little girl laughing with her, holding a tea cup for her, and everyone in the state capital knew that she was Shen Ruohua's personal girl, and they didn't dare to slack off, so they could only do what she was told.

"What's in it?" Yao Tao watched the mother-in-law carry food boxes one by one, pointed coldly, and stopped them all.

The mother-in-law smiled all over her face, and opened the food boxes one by one to show her: "They are all dishes ready to be sent to the table." โ€

Yao Tao stood up: "I'll take a look, my lady is the most picky, a lot of food is not needed, not only don't you need it, you don't even want to see it, naturally you can't send it indiscriminately!" โ€

She stepped forward and opened the food box, pointed to the dishes one by one and asked who they were for, and the mother-in-law had to answer them one by one.

But she still refused to give up, and she had to take out the dishes and look at them, and then put them back again, seeing that the mother-in-law and girls were all angry and anxious, and they didn't dare to urge her more, so she could only take it back and forth to check it.

It took a long time before I heard her say lazily: "That's it, let's serve it, but I have to see all the food that is going to be sent, otherwise my lady will blame it, I'm afraid that even your prefect can't afford it." โ€

The mother-in-law had to respond, but she secretly slandered herself in her heart, but she was just a female doctor, but she took Qiao like this, and thought that she was a golden branch and jade leaf! Seeing that the dish was just moved, it was only the food box of the Marquis of Guangping and the female doctor Shen who opened it, so they didn't care about looking at it more, hurriedly covered the food box, and walked to the inner hall with it
