C16

The chaos in Jing Prefecture had been quelled, but there was still no news of Xia Yiming. What was his current situation? This was what Xia Yi An was most concerned about. As for the plague, the imperial physicians were naturally worried about it.

… ….

However, half a month had passed, and Jing Prefecture hadn't brought back any good news. The plague had not been eliminated, and there was no news from Xia Yiming. The government had burned many people, and the people were rioting every day. No matter how many troops the Frigid King had, he was unable to lay his hands on the innocent civilians. Thus, Jing Prefecture became a piece of rotten meat that could not be eaten.

Every day, Madame Jiang would wash her face with tears as she grew thinner and thinner. Xia Yi An felt that perhaps she should go to Jing Prefecture. It wasn't that she was the only one who could cure the plague in Jing Prefecture, but she was certain that she had a way to cure it.

Furthermore, she could personally go find Xia Yiming, which was still better than sitting still and waiting for death.

When she told the idea to Jin Lei, he rejected it without thinking. First, let's not talk about whether the old master and his wife would agree to let her go. Even if she did go, it wouldn't be safe even if she was just a woman. Jingzhou was so chaotic. If something were to happen to her again, it would be the death of her and the old master.

Xia Yi An agreed in her heart, but she decided to go to Jingzhou. After much consideration, she went to find Black Turtle, Nangong Han's coachman.

Black Turtle was very surprised to see her. He didn't expect her to come find him.

Xia Yi An said, "I have a friend who can cure the plague and would like to make a trip to Jing Prefecture. However, the journey is very long and dangerous, so I wanted to ask you to escort him."

Black Turtle sized her up and said, "I can only be the prince's coachman, no one else can talk about it."

Xia Yi An then said, "Saving a life is better than creating a seven-layered pagoda. Furthermore, there are hundreds of thousands of people here, so you should make an exception."

"No." Black Turtle was very arrogant.

Seeing that he couldn't make sense of the situation, she shut her eyes and swallowed her anger. Then, with a fiery gaze, she shouted, "You fool, if Duke Han knew that you could have brought people to save the state of Jingzhou but remained indifferent, he would have killed you when he came back! Do you really think that you're being arrogant this way, that's simply pedantic. If you just send someone over you will be able to accomplish a great deed! Do you know that you only want to be his driver for your entire life? "

Black Turtle was stunned by her imposing manner. This was the first time he had seen such a ferocious woman.

Xia Yi An poked his sturdy arm and said, "To think that you have all kinds of martial arts. Is there any point in not using it on the battlefield? As long as you send my friend safely, I can guarantee that the Frigid King will treat you differently! "Well, what do you say?"

Black Turtle licked his lips and nodded blankly: "Do it!"

Once the Black Turtle was finished, Xia Yi An went back to prepare to leave.

She usually liked to delve into strange things, and was good at changing her appearance. When Jin Lei entered, he saw a handsome man, the pastries in his hands had fallen to the ground. When did Miss bring back an unfamiliar man?

"Jin Lei, come over here." Xia Yi An tidied up her face and hooked a finger at her.

"Miss! You. "Are you a lady?" Jin Lei walked over uncertainly and looked around her.

"That's right. Hurry and tie up my hair." She handed the jade crown to Jin Lei and pointed at her disheveled hair.

Jin Lei rearranged her hair with a comb and tied a jade crown on her head. A handsome young man appeared in the mirror. She asked with a sad face, "Miss, you can't be dressed like this to go to Jingzhou, right?"

"Smart." Xia Yi An looked at the person in the mirror with satisfaction. She opened the medicine box, took out a pill and threw it into her mouth.

"I know I can't persuade Miss, but can you take me with you? I can take care of you on the way here. It must be very tiring for you to be by yourself since you're so far away from Jingzhou. " Jean followed her around the room.

As Xia Yi An tidied up her clothes, she said, "No way, why am I bringing you little girl? I'm not going to play, so you should obediently watch over my courtyard."

Jin Lei became anxious as soon as he heard that. He hugged Xia Yi An's burden and shamelessly said, "Miss, if you don't bring me along, I'll go tell the master and the madam. Anyway, the Miss won't care about whether Jin Lei lives or dies.

Xia Yi An's heart softened as she looked at her pitiful appearance. She thought to herself, "That's true. Father and Mother would definitely punish Jin Lei if they find out that she sneaked out." If he brought gold cups, he would have to take care of them on the way.

"Alright, you must be mentally prepared. If you go back, you might encounter some problems. Don't drag me down!"

"Mhmm!" Jin Lei nodded vigorously and happily went to pack his things.

… ….

After leaving a letter on the table, Xia Yi An explained her whereabouts and repeatedly guaranteed her safety before sneaking out with Jin Lei.

The Black Turtle Car stopped at the back door of Xia Manor. Xia Yi An and Jin Lei had both changed their appearances and stood in front of him in their male attire.

Black Turtle looked at the two of them and lightly said, "Get on."

"Thank you!" Xia Yi An imitated the way of a man, clasping her fists towards him as a form of thanks. Then, she carried her clothes and got into the carriage.

The horse carriage slowly left Xia Manor. Xia Yi An had secretly observed for a while, but no one noticed.

Jin Lei said hoarsely, "Sir, the old master and Madam will definitely die from anger."

Xia Yi An coughed and said in the same hoarse voice, "That's why we have to bring Big Bro back this time. We will atone for our deeds."

They had taken the Voice Changing Pill, and their voices were hoarse and deep, like a man's. After two days, their voices would slowly become better. Before leaving, Xia Yi An was well-prepared. She even ordered someone to make a few decent scalpels for her to cut open one's intestines and stomach.

She lowered her voice and told Jin Lei, "Remember what I told you before. From now on, my name is Yan Ge. "You are my apprentice alchemist, Jin Ge. You cannot reveal your identity, otherwise I will leave you half-way there!"

Jin Lei nodded and grumbled, "Do you have a medicine boy as big as me? "And with such a man's name, it's really unpleasant to hear … …" "Hahahahaha …" "Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah … … … …."

Xia Yi An knocked her head and said, "You're still annoyed? Aren't you only fourteen years old? Why aren't you an ingredient boy?"

Jin Lei swallowed his complaints and held the bundle in his arms, wanting to speak but then stopped. Seeing her like this, Xia Yi An helplessly pinched the space between her eyebrows and said, "If you have something to say, just say it."

"Miss, you've changed so much since you woke up, and you even learned medicine. Even your temper changed, why is that?"

Xia Yi An looked at her round, curious eyes. Unconsciously, she touched her earlobes and began to make up lies. If he told her that her soul passed through her body, she definitely wouldn't believe him. It would be better to lie to her.

"It's like this. After I fainted, I dreamt of a deity. His powers were limitless, and every night he would ask me to teach him a healing technique. He even told me to restrain myself, so I changed." With that, she looked at Jin Lei with a smile, hoping that she would believe it.

"Miss, please coax me. I usually take good care of you, but you're still coaxing me with these words …" Jin Lei felt wronged. The golden bean dropped with a "pa da da" sound.

Xia Yi An felt bad. This little girl had been serving her since she was young and was very close to her. It was indeed wrong to coax her like this, but she wouldn't believe it even if she told the truth.

Xia Yi An said with a straight face, "What tears did a grown man shed? Hurry up and wipe them away."

He wiped his eyes with his sleeve and turned away from her. Xia Yi An didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This little girl was really getting more and more unruly.
