Fengqi crabapple

Chapter 39 Invited
After the Tiankuang Festival, the Cheng family lazily lived a happy life of a loving father and a filial son.

"No, no, I have to do this step again!" Haitang grabbed her father's sleeve and refused to let him put down the chess piece.Han Bai, who was standing next to him, came over to take a look and helped Haitang pick up the chess piece she had just moved from the chessboard.

"Hey! You brother! How can you help your sister regret her chess and cheat like this?" The father smiled and watched the two brothers and sisters quarreling: "If we were on the battlefield, could you help her tell the enemy to go back and stand up and fight again?"

"Why is she, a little girl, going to the battlefield?" Han Bai said nonchalantly.

"That's not necessarily true," Haitang said with a smile, "I can be a doctor in the army if I follow my father!"

The father nodded: "There is really a shortage of doctors on the battlefield. When the artillery exploded, the wounds were large. Many soldiers were not killed by the explosion, but died from the wounds."

"Father, why are you telling her this?" Han Bai glared and said, "Do you really want her to go to the battlefield? Isn't it enough that you have a son who is fighting for his life on the battlefield?"

Haitang stared at them blankly. The artillery blast caused bloody wounds, and the wounds were festering in large areas... Is there such a medicine?
Han Bai rubbed her head: "Don't think about it, you're stupid!" They excused themselves to their father and came out of the main room.

"Why didn't you go see the princess to play?" Han Bai asked her

"Aren't I making medicine these two days? I'll let you take it with you when you and dad return to the military camp."

"You should make some beef jerky! Last time you asked me to buy half a cow, you just gave me such a small bag, tell me! Where are all the beef jerky hidden?" Han Bai said fiercely, "No! Did you give it to the Crown Prince?"

"Nonsense!" Haitang smiled and pushed her elder brother: "I just gave the princess a pack, it's not as much as yours! If you want to eat, go buy beef~"

The two brothers and sisters were talking and laughing when they suddenly heard someone coming in from outside handing in a post.Han Bai took it and looked at it. It was a post from Mr. Sun, the censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. He said that someone was coming to invite his concubine Cheng Haitang to come over for a while in the afternoon.

Han Bai didn't dare to delay and quickly sent the post to his father.Cheng Yu was also confused. He and Mr. Sun were just casual acquaintances. Given their rank, Mr. Sun did not need to get close to him.The key point is, why would he invite his daughter to live in the house alone? There is no such rule!

The father and son discussed it and decided that it would be a good idea not to go, so Han Bai would accompany his sister. If something went wrong, he would run away to protect his sister. If there were any consequences, his father would come back to argue with him later.The higher the rank, the higher the rank, you have to be reasonable, right?
Haitang actually said: "Censor of Zuodu of the Ducha Yuan? Brother, didn't you say that the young lady of Censor of Youdu is the handkerchief of Xiang Jin?"

"Yes! But does it matter? No matter, father said that we should adapt to circumstances and run away if we can't fight."

Haitang chuckled: "Is it possible that the Sun family invited a girl from me to fight?"

After all the joking, Haitang went back to the house to think about it, took out her medicine box, packed some commonly used medicines, and asked Shuang'er to put them on the carriage for later use.

After noon, the Sun Mansion indeed sent a carriage to pick them up. Haitang took Shuang'er and got on the carriage, while Han Bai followed with Cheng Dan and Cheng Shuang on horseback.It was a coincidence that the prince rarely came out to drink tea with Prince Xian. He was sitting at the window of the teahouse facing the street. From a distance, he saw Han Bai riding a tall horse. The carriage next to him was not the carriage of the Cheng family. A gust of wind blew up the curtains and saw Shuang Shuang. The child was talking to the person opposite with his face turned sideways.

King Xian also raised his head and looked at it: "Isn't that the carriage of Sun Yushi's family? Do you know it, cousin?"

"Prince Xian has a good memory! He even recognizes the carriage of his ministers." The prince said calmly.

"No. The carriage of the Sun family was custom-made at the same place as the one in my house. There were two styles of canopies at that time. My house chose one of them, and the Sun house asked for the other one. I have seen it in detail One glance, so I remember." King Xian quickly explained.

"Your Majesty Sun has a hobby that is impressive." King Xian seemed to have thought of something, and said with a dismissive smile, "He doesn't like drinking, but he likes to collect wine bottles from all over the world! Do you think it's a quirk? ?”

The prince listened with a smile on his face, feeling a little worried in his heart.This Major General Cheng is a bit short-sighted. Don't let his sister suffer again like he did last time when he went to Biyun Temple!
"King Xian, sit down for a moment and I'll be back as soon as I can."

The prince hurried downstairs and asked Chu Yi to follow him first to see what the Sun family wanted to take Haitang to.He arrived shortly thereafter.In the first year of junior high school, he knew Cheng Dan, so he mounted his horse and chased after him without hesitation.

Han Bai followed the carriage all the way to the Sun Mansion, where the housekeeper was already waiting outside the door.After the housekeeper explained briefly, Haitang and Han Bai entered, but the guards stayed outside.Cheng Dan and Cheng Shuang were anxious, but Chu Yi said that he would go in from the roof to take a look.

This first year of junior high school is not as good as Ling Xue and Ling Feng in kung fu, but his light kung fu is particularly good. After taking Haitang's Nine Flower Jade Dew Pills, his internal strength has recovered to [-]% to [-]%. It is a trivial matter for him to jump off the wall to get into the house.

On the first day of junior high school, I was grateful for Haitang's kindness in donating medicine, and also learned that Haitang was the eldest son and his savior that night, so I naturally hoped to protect Haitang.He and Cheng Dan agreed on a signal, and in a flash, he disappeared behind the wall of the Sun residence.

The butler led Haitang and Han Bai to the main hall, and saw Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Yushi, the Zuodu Yushi, were already waiting in the main hall.

Seeing them coming in, Mrs. Yu Shi came forward to greet her, took Haitang's hand and looked her up and down: "Are you Cheng Haitang, the legitimate daughter of General Cheng? It's better to be famous than to meet her. You are so beautiful and like a flower, so popular!"

"Thank you for your compliment, Madam! My little girl is Cheng Haitang, and this is my brother Cheng Hanbai." Haitang saluted Madam.Han Bai also stepped forward to greet the censor and his wife.

"General Cheng is a young hero. I have heard about it for a long time. I saw it today. He is truly worthy of his reputation." Sun Yushi also said politely: "I took the liberty to invite Miss Cheng here today because I am a seventy-year-old mother who is ill in bed and needs medicine." There is no doctor. I heard from the wife of Mr. Shi Wan, the censor of Youdu, that the girl has been passed down by others and has excellent medical skills. I also asked the girl to diagnose the disease for my mother, so my Sun Mansion is in trouble!"

When Haitang heard this, it was as expected.
