Chapter 33: The Dowry

"Princess! She is the person who the emperor gave you a marriage. Bu Liuxiao asked incredulously.

Gu Yichen didn't answer her question, but silence meant acquiescence, looking at Bu Liuxiao, who was about to be blown up, Bai Xiyue glared at Gu Yichen resentfully, this person was obviously using her as a shield, and he didn't think about her life or death at all.

Bu Liuxiao didn't rush over to kill herself as Bai Xiyue imagined, but calmed down and said in a soft voice: "Yichen, I know you don't like her at all, it's okay, I'll solve it for you, you can only be mine."

After saying this, she left quickly, which made Bai Xiyue stunned, why should you solve me, if you like him, do you like it, what do you do to solve me, I am also forced.

"Lord, we are not married yet, you are in front of outsiders, can you not say that I am your princess." Bai Xiyue said angrily, and a little disgust could be heard in her tone.

"The date has been chosen, the marriage is also being prepared, and in just these few days, you will soon be the regent." Saying that, he left, and just now Gu Yichen found out that her name was very useful, and she successfully repelled some annoying women.

"Hey, that's not what I meant!" Bai Xiyue shouted at his back, but unfortunately no one paid attention to her.

The trip to collect medicine ended unhappily, and after entering Yuancheng, Bai Xiyue shouted that she was going to get off the car, and then sat in the same carriage with the regent, and felt that she was going to lose her life.

Gu Yichen didn't force her to stay, and sent some people to protect her in the dark and left.

For the sake of safety, Bai Xiyue didn't wander outside, and was about to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion directly, when she passed through the alley last time, a man with a red umbrella appeared there.

She instantly became vigilant, and tightened the whip on her waist, this person was the man who fell in the rain that day, what does it mean to appear here at this moment, neither of them spoke, they looked at each other for a long time, and seemed to be testing each other.

He observed the woman in front of him, her appearance was very ordinary, and she seemed to be a little pale, which did not match the feeling of that day.

"Who are you!" Bai Xiyue asked sharply, while observing the surrounding terrain where she could escape.

"My name is Cangming, I was rescued by a woman here a few days ago, and I came here today to return something." As he spoke, he raised the umbrella in his hand, which was left by Bai Xiyue that day.

When he spoke, his tone was light and breezy, and there was a shallow smile on his face, and he looked harmless to humans and animals, which successfully made Bai Xi let down his guard.

She walked over, took the red umbrella, and prepared to leave, without glancing at the man.

"Wait, aren't you curious at all why I fainted here?" Cang Ming said to her with a smile.

"Not curious." Bai Xiyue quickly finished speaking and wanted to leave, as if someone was rushing behind him, but unfortunately he didn't take two steps, Cang Ming chased after him, he changed his face, and said in a serious tone: "You saved me, I want to make a promise."

"What!" At this moment, Bai Xiyue was stunned, and it was the first time she heard that there was a man who wanted to make a promise.

"Hey, I can tell you, I'm married, I can't marry you." She looked at the man and said seriously.

"Married!" Cang Ming muttered thoughtfully.

"Yes." Just when Bai Xiyue thought that the man was going to give up, who knew that he said another shocking sentence.

"Then do you mind having another husband?" Cang Ming continued.

Bai Xiyue didn't know what to say anymore, she looked at Cangming's harmless face and extremely serious expression, and she really had an urge to raise a little milk dog in the backyard.

"No! No way! In the end, reason prevailed over impulse, if he really did this, Gu Yichen would probably be the first to hack himself to death, and then solve the White Mansion.

"Cang Ming, listen to me, I'm going to get married, and my future husband is a ruthless person, if you follow me, you will die without a body, you better go find someone else, with your face, you will definitely find a good home."

Bai Xiyue patiently persuaded, looking like an old mother, persuading a child who had gone astray.

"Okay, you take this, and I'll leave." Cang Ming didn't dwell too much, but took out a hairpin and handed it to her.

It was an ordinary-looking hairpin, all over the body, the head of the hairpin was engraved with some strange patterns, she took it, looked carefully and found nothing wrong, and was about to put it in the purse, Cang Ming spoke again.

"You've got to wear it, or I won't go." There is an irresistible domineering tone in his tone.

"Okay, I'll wear it." Bai Xiyue said and casually inserted the hairpin into her hair, I have to say that although this is a very ordinary hairpin, it has a feeling that cannot be ignored when you wear it.

"It's okay." After she put it on, she raised her head, only to find that the person was gone, if it weren't for the warm touch of the hairpin in her hand, she thought it was her own delusion.

"Bai Ze, when did he leave?"

"He left just when you inserted the hairpin." Bai Ze replied truthfully.

Bai Xiyue left without thinking too much, so far she didn't feel any malice from this man, but this strange behavior is still worth noting.

The next morning, the gate of Baifu was very lively, many people gathered around the door, and the noisy sound woke up Bai Xiyue, who lived in the backyard.

"Bai Tao, why is it so noisy outside, what's going on." Bai Xiyue rubbed her eyes and asked in a displeased tone.

"Miss, you're awake, it's the regent who has sent a dowry." Bai Tao said happily, opened the bed curtain with his hand, and the sunlight spilled in at once.

The weather outside is already very bright, and after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather is not so hot, and Bai Xiyue also likes to be active, so she is not so reluctant to get up.

When she finished grooming and arrived in the front hall, the yard was already full of gift boxes, and there were still people moving inside the door.

"Dark One." Bai Xiyue interrupted him.

"Miss Bai, you're here!" Dark One immediately looked at her, like looking at the future hostess, and the enthusiasm was overwhelming.

"What are you doing here?" Bai Xiyue frowned and asked.

"Miss Bai, this is our royal dowry, a total of nine hundred and ninety-nine gifts, and they are all treasures, and they will be moved immediately." Dark One thought that Bai Xiyue didn't like them to be too abrasive, and hurriedly explained.

Prime Minister Bai and his wife are very satisfied with the attitude of the regent, the more dowry the man gives to the woman in Tianyuan Kingdom, it means that he attaches more importance to the woman, and now his such a generous behavior is enough to show his attitude towards Bai Xiyue, the couple was still minding that the regent himself would not come, and now it is not incomprehensible, his legs and feet are indeed inconvenient, the important thing is to be attentive.

Bai Xiyue pulled over and asked in a low voice: "Is this what the prince personally asked to send, what does he mean?"

Seeing that she asked so cautiously, he also lowered his voice and replied: "All the gifts are approved by the prince, and the prince also said that you can develop antidote pills with peace of mind, and the marriage will be prepared by the palace, you just need to be ready to be a bride."

Bai Xiyue was not only not happy after hearing this, but her face became more solemn, Gu Yichen's move was to completely pull Bai Fu into his camp, today's matter, I am afraid that the entire Yuan City has spread all over it, those who can't move Gu Yichen, seeing that he attaches so much importance to this princess, will they not be able to hold back.

It wasn't until three o'clock in the afternoon that all the gifts were moved, and the dark one also completed the task and went back.

The courtyard of the Bai Mansion has been occupied by all kinds of boxes, Madam Bai is directing people to clean it up, Bai Xiyue has no other way but to develop an antidote as soon as possible, if there is no value, with only a contract, it is difficult to guarantee whether Gu Yichen will seriously protect the Bai Mansion.

Fortunately, the medicinal materials were already complete, so she seized the time to analyze their commonalities, and then reconfigured them one by one, and she would definitely find the antidote.

Bai Xiyue cleaned and processed the medicinal materials used by Lin Zi'an one by one, wrote the medicinal properties and functions on a piece of paper, and put them away for later use.

Next is the antidote she configured, most of which used the medicine of the doctor's system, so it was much faster to deal with.

It wasn't until the dead of night that Bai Xiyue finished disposing of all the medicines, she had no intention of sleeping, and continued to study, she did hundreds of analyses and comparisons, but she didn't find any special ingredients, the only thing that can be determined is that these medicines can only relieve the poison in the body of the regent, not the cure.

She turned to the medicine prescribed by the doctor's system, and with the help of machine analysis and comparative experiments with other medicinal materials, she still found no commonality.

How can this be, one can alleviate the toxin, the other can suppress the toxin, it is said that the two drugs will definitely have something in common, and what they have in common must be the key to detoxification, how can it not be, there must be something wrong.

Bai Xiyue began to re-match until the sky was slightly bright, and she had tried thousands of methods, but she still didn't find it.

She pushed open the door and went out, the weather was a little cool, and the yard was still very quiet, Bai Xiyue circled around the yard and stretched her waist.

After a busy night and nothing, she was a little irritable, so she could only distract herself at this time and then continue to struggle.

After turning around several times, the sky was completely bright, Bai Xiyue also calmed down, and returned to the room, as soon as she went back, she found that something was wrong with the medicinal herbs, as if the color had changed, although it was only a little yellow, but this subtle change still attracted her attention.

After some experiments, she finally found the common substance of the two batches of drugs - crow's gall, which is called calcium edetate sodium in modern times.

This discovery made Bai Xiyue excited, she quickly configured a new antidote, fusing the commonality of the two batches of drugs, after doing this, she finally solved the big problem in her heart, and went to make up for sleep with peace of mind.
