Chapter 30
Everyone who knows the incident regarding the only daughter of the Left Minister a.s.sumed that she will not be able to even stand up, not at least until next month.
So, who would have thought that just after two days, the same young miss that is supposed to be bedridden is now in front of him causing trouble in the entire s.h.i.+zi Empire?
The implication of the recent incident that involves a murder of crows, does not only affect the Medical Pavilion but may also alarm the Royal Family.
An expert who can do this is not ordinary.
Glancing at Feng Ji, he knows that this little blue sparrow is the only that can command all the spirit bird species in the entire kingdom.
He just does not know why it seems different from before. Wanting to know something but he cannot yet, makes him annoyed. Though this also makes him hope for something that might never happen.
Interesting. Truly interesting.
It's been a while since he last felt a whirlwind of emotions since he set foot in the mortal domain.
In the meantime, he will continue to watch and investigate.
He nodded, "Very well. I will prepare the purple rose herb in the next two days." Wei
"Alright. There's your crow." Gao Lan Mei pointed out the window.
A crow standing on the edge of it. Wei Jiayi approached the crow, "Meme, your back!" He exclaimed.
Gao Lan Mei lips twitched, she is not sure if she wants to grin or scowl. The name was not really fit for a crow.
"You should not keep it in a cage." She commented instead.
He snorted, "I only place Meme in a cage if we are outside." Wei Jia Yi felt insulted. He is, of course, aware that birds are supposed to be free. That is the reason why his palace is near the forest.
Gao Lan Mei just shrugged her shoulders. It's part of the deal. He does not seem to abuse his pet so, she will just mind her own business.
After collecting the agreed herbs as well as the five hundred thousand gold, Gao Lan Mei headed out of the Medical Pavilion.
Outside, she saw the old mute beggar and Gao Chu together waiting for her. The worry is clearly seen in their eyes.
"Miss, you're back!" Gao Chu was so happy to see her unscathed. She was so afraid that something bad had happened to her.
Gao Lan Mei pa.s.sed the herbs to Gao Chu to carry. Then she pulled out the five hundred thousand worth of bank notes to the old mute beggar.
"Here." Gao Lan Mei uttered with an indifferent expression.
The old mute beggar is surprised. The bank notes are for him? Really? Since his face clearly expressed his question, Gao Lan Mei nodded.
He almost cried from happiness, but he did not accept the notes instead he kneeled in front of Gao Lan Mei and start to kowtow to show his grat.i.tude.
After doing so, he did not stand up but just looked at her like he was trying to tell her something.
"Miss, I think he wants to follow us." Gao Chu said.
Hearing this, the old mute beggar nodded vigorously to affirm on what Gao Chu said.
Gao Lan Mei stared at the old mute beggar who became nervous because of possible rejection. "Then follow us."
