Chapter 239: Encounter at the Banquet 4
Lu Yan took another sip of the nasty milky tea. He could not bear it and put it to the side before leaving his cat on the tabletop. The white cat glanced at the milk tea with disgust and did not move. Lu Yan said, “There are only seven experts of the grandmaster level in the world. There are already two in Easter Ling. Two in Daming, two in Dazhou, one more in Northern Liang. Our only grandmaster in Northern Liang is still guarding the emperor in the capital. It’s impossible for him to come to Qingzhou City. That only leaves the two from Eastern Ling or the other two from Daming who could be lurking in Qingzhou City. ”
“Has Master Lu found a clue?” Heir Pei asked calmly.
Lu Yan shook his head. “I’m afraid a lot of people are waiting for the government’s investigation report as well as the Zhaixing Administration’s intelligence report.”
Heir Pei asked, “How long before the Zhaixing Administration can reveal the whereabouts of the grand masters?”
Lu Yan replied, “If they’re quick, a carrier eagle will deliver the news this afternoon.”
Since there were no results.
Heir Pei said nothing further.
Qi Qingyao’s expression was calm as she ate her food quietly without saying a word. She noticed that it was not only these two who were discussing this issue. Most of the people at this banquet were discussing the incident last night at Lingyun Restaurant.
Everyone was taking their guesses on who did it.
…
After Si Jin returned to the Lord Heir’s attached mansion, he entered the house to find Jiang Yeqian teaching the children how to read. The children were tilting their heads cutely.
Jiang Yeqian was taken aback by Si Jin’s sudden appearance. “Why are you back?”
“I was chased back halfway,” Si Jin said gloomily the moment his butt touched the chair.
“You’re not accompanying her,” said Jiang Yeqian.
Si Jin was even more depressed now. “I was chased back!”
Jiang Yeqian pondered for a bit. “You must have made her mad.”
As he said this.
He put on his mask, planning to head out.
Si Jin pulled Jiang Yeqian back. “Don’t go over there.”
“Why not?” Jiang Yeqian asked.
“She doesn’t need either you or me to accompany her. It’s not as if anything is going on today,” Si Jin said firmly.
“Why not?” Jiang Yeqian asked again.
“Heir Pei is with her, nothing’s going to happen.” Si Jin pouted. He was a little frustrated as he spoke somewhat gloomily.
Jiang Yeqian thought for a moment.
He also felt that nothing big was likely to happen.
Most importantly, he needed to wait here for Bai Mei to deliver her report…
If he were to go to the Jiang residence, the likelihood of him being found out was…really high.
…
Qi Qingyao and Pei Fengtang had been seated for a while. The moment she began digging into the food, a few people came and sat at their table. As if familiar with one another, they looked at Pei Fengtang and pointed at Qi Qingyao.
“Heir Pei, I heard that she is your maid.”
They had asked Master Jiang and he had told them that the little lady was a maid.
They had been mistaken.
They had thought that she was his favored concubine.
Although they had already established the fact that there was no way Heir Pei would be able to satiate a concubine with his current physical state!
Pei Fengtang raised his brows slightly. “Is there a problem?”
“This maid is so cute. Where did you find her?” asked Jiang Siting. He was the Jiang family’s second lord and had developed an interest in the beautiful woman that Heir Pei had brought with him.
Heir Pei glanced at him sideways and said nothing. “…”
Jiang Siting continued with another question. “I heard the person who treated Heir Pei was a female doctor. I wonder who it was?”
Pei Fengtang had no intention of answering.
He did not even bother looking at Jiang Siting.
“My lord, is there a reason that you’re asking about the female doctor?” Qi Qingyao instead did not ignore his question and answered with a smile. “If you’re looking to get treated, can you afford a starting price of 100,000 taels of silver? If you can’t, you shouldn’t ask too many questions.”
Jiang Siting answered with surprise, “This maid sure knows how to joke around. What doctor asks for a starting fee of a hundred thousand taels?”
At this moment, the young lord Han of the main Han family who had not dared to say anything till now suddenly spoke up. “The price is so high. Could it be the legendary doctor Su Hexiao?”
Qi Qingyao said nothing but smiled very calmly.
A look of triumph emerged on Jiang Siting’s face.
All of a sudden, some people came barging over as they pointed excitedly at Qi Qingyao. “I’ve seen this woman in Baishui Town before, and I’ve heard some things. She is the mysterious doctor who cured Heir Pei.” The Yulong Gang already gave them a clue so there could be no mistake.
After he said this, he even spoke to Lu Yan happily, “Don’t you think so, Master Lu?”
The fifth lord of the Xin family!
Lu Yan hated the Xin family the most.
However, he hated the way Qi Qingyao was treating him more and so turned and nodded slightly at Qi Qingyao. “Lady, you were born from humble origins but your medical skills are superb. We are really impressed that you were able to cure Heir Pei’s stubborn illness.”
Qi Qingyao cast a glance at Lu Yan.
‘Is he planning on having everyone mistake me for Su Hexiao now?
‘To have them gang up to mess with me?
‘To make the target of ridicule?
‘To scheme against me?
‘The door is closed!
‘Neither is the window open!’
