"Marriage?" The medicine hoe in the hand of the county lord of Yikang fell to the ground, and she immediately frowned, "Why does the emperor want to marry me?" ”

"The age of the county lord was originally-"

"Don't marry!" Yikang frowned, "My sister is still not married, why did she suddenly say that she was going to marry me now?" ”

Ying Xiang sighed, "County Lord, are you listening to what I said well, the person the emperor pointed out to you is-"

"No one will marry!" Yikang interrupted the maid loudly, "Where did you hear this news?" ”

"This morning, the emperor and Gonggong Lu came to Guanli, and he personally met the big county lord." Ying Xiang said with a smile, "The slave happened to be doing things nearby, so I listened to the corner by the way. ”

Yikang's face was slightly gloomy, "...... My sister also agreed? ”

"It seems that the emperor should have discussed it with the lord of the county before, and today he came here in person specifically for this matter."

Yikang bit her lower lip, and her whole face turned slightly pale.

"I'm going to go and make it clear to my sister now—"

"County Lord!" Yingxiang hugged Yikang, who ran away, "You really, you ...... Is it okay to listen to the slave and maid talk about it? ”

"Don't listen! Don't listen! I don't need them to dictate to me about my marriage, who I want to marry or who I want to marry, they don't think—"

"It's Dr. Bai!" Yingxiang said loudly, "It's none other than Dr. Bai!" ”

Before the words fell, Yikang's movements froze there for a while, and she withdrew her gaze a little dazedly and looked at the maid nearby.

“…… Who? She blinked, "Which Doctor Bai?" ”

"How many other Bai doctors are there in Pingjing City?" Ying Xiang smiled, "It's Bai Yi who saved you and the slave a few years ago, Doctor Bai." ”

Yikang froze there, and after a moment, her cheeks flushed on both sides.

"The county lord's thoughts, others don't know, don't the slaves and maids know?" Ying Xiang laughed, "Look at this area of medicine fields at the foot of the mountain, how much thought have you put into it in the past few years, whose noble daughter would remember what paddy fields like this day and day?" ”

Yikang frowned again, "It's because—"

"Because the hospital is going to save people, the slave knows."

Yikang only felt embarrassed to hear Yingxiang's words, so she turned around and turned her back to the maid.

She clenched the tassel belt that had been blown off her waist.

“…… Your Majesty, how could you suddenly make such a will," Yikang muttered, "It's too strange......"

"What's so strange about that?" Ying Xiang walked around in front of Yikang in a few steps, "Maybe Bai Yi went to the emperor to ask for it?" ”

Yikang's eyes lit up slightly, and then dimmed again.

"Impossible. He...... He ...... to me," Yikang shook his head, "that night, you weren't there...... You've been there many times, you don't understand. ”

"What doesn't the slave understand?"

"If Bai Yi really has the heart to ask for a kiss, he has always avoided me quietly in the past few years? Every time he stepped aside without a sound, did he think I hadn't noticed? In short, impossible. ”

"Why can't it be, it's likely." Ying Xiang said, "Think about it, during the New Year's holidays, when didn't Dr. Bai personally carry a thin gift to visit the mountain—even the Taoist children who practice at the foot of our mountain recognize him." ”

"He's here for the Tai Hospital." Yikang said lightly, "After all, my sister had negotiated with the Tai Hospital about the supply of medicine, and we would supply them with medicine at a low price, and when needed, their apprentices would come to Guanli to treat the mountain people." ”

Ying Xiang laughed, "If he really doesn't have any other ideas, why hasn't he gotten married until now?" Although it is a little reluctant to take Dr. Bai to match our county lord, there are many girls in this Pingjing City to be married, and Dr. Bai has not responded to any of them, and it has been delayed until now - they are all twenty.

"The county lord's heart for him, even the slave and maid can see it, how can he not see it?

"After all, he's just a small medical officer, what is the identity of the county lord, what is his identity? He is such an arrogant person, let him take the initiative to insert the door, he must still mind. ”

Yikang looked at Yingxiang, and there was a slight doubt in his eyes.

"You...... You mean, in his heart, in fact, he is still ......"

"Otherwise," Yingxiang looked at Yikang with a smile, "Who has he been guarding for all these years?" ”

Yikang's expression was a little complicated.

She took two steps forward on her own, muttering to herself, "...... Then I'll have to ask myself. ”

"Eh, don't be the county lord! How could you ask about this kind of thing in person? Wait for him to come to the door. ”

"No way!" Yikang shook off Yingxiang's hand, didn't even bother with the muddy water on the hem of his clothes, and quickly headed towards the dock by the lake.

From Xuanqingguan to Tai Hospital, you first have to row through the corner of the sparkling Jian'an Lake, and then approach the center of Pingjing City by land.

Along the way, Xuanqingguan had its own boats and horses, and Yikang traveled unhindered all the way, and soon came to the gate of Tai Hospital.

Every month, she would come here with the carts and horses carrying the medicines, and many people would already recognize her face, and when they saw the county lord arrive, they took the initiative to salute and greet her.

Yikang didn't bother to say hello, so he nodded and silently jumped off the horse he was riding.

In the afterglow, she saw that Zeng Hou's carriage was parked outside the side door - it seems that Zeng Jiuyan is also there today?

Yikang didn't have time to think too much, she quickly crossed the main road and headed towards the West Firewood House in the northwest corner, where she had sent people to break through and the apprentices had blocked the people she had brought with her.

However, this is not what it used to be, and now the apprentices in the West Firewood House are much more polite than before. As soon as Yikang entered, he waved his hand to the apprentices who were working, signaling them to do their own thing.

"Where's the Bai Yi people?" She asked, grabbing a random passerby.

"Back to the county lord, our master is now in the reception room, chatting with the little marquis." The apprentice said softly, "Do you want to pass it on to you?" ”

"Oh, no." Yikang let go of his hand, "You do your thing, just go by yourself." ”

She stood still, calming down a little.

When her heartbeat slowly returned to normal, she took another step, stepping up the wooden steps and towards the hospitality room.

As soon as she arrived at the door, she heard Zeng Jiuyan's voice, "So you really don't know?" ”

Yikang's footsteps stopped abruptly - it seemed that Zeng Jiuyan was indeed here, and it seemed that what they were talking about might be the topic they were going to ask about today.

So Yikang slowly slowed down, leaned against the wall of the outhouse, and looked at everything in the yard casually.

In the room, Bai Yi's voice came, "Where did you get this news from?" The emperor never mentioned it to me? ”
