Chapter 44: The Golden House

The two imperial physicians were tactful and did not immediately propose to learn Qin Lei's magic. Instead, they passed on his method of pushing the uterus to promote blood circulation. They prescribed a prescription and gave a few more instructions before leaving.

It was already noon when Qin Lei sent the imperial physician away. An internal supervisor called him to the front hall for dinner. Qin Lei thought about it and ordered Shen Qing to find a few palace maids to take care of the girl, so he went to the front hall.

The dining table was empty, and the prince was sitting in the front seat, his face was not very good.

He asked Qin Lei to sit down, retreat, looked at Qin Lei for a while, and then slowly said: "Fifth brother, you have been pledged since childhood and may not know much about our royal system."

Qin Lei remained silent.

The prince picked up the teacup, sipped a sip of tea, and continued: "The royal family is the first family in the world. It must be the first family in the world. It must always pay attention to setting an example and setting an example for the world."

Qin Lei nodded slightly.

When the prince saw him nodding, his tone was slowing down: "You did a bad job today."

Qin Lei raised his head and looked at the prince in surprise.

The prince looked at his confused brother, remembering his pitiful life experience, and couldn't bear to blame him anymore. He said softly: "If the father knew about this, he would definitely throw that palace maid into the well, and you would not be able to escape the twenty whip of the clan's mansion."

Qin Lei asked in a low voice: "Why?"

The prince stood up and came to Qin Lei, put his hand on his shoulder, and whispered: "A palace maid who was favored by the prince is not grateful, but she is not aware of advancing and retreating, and is arrogant and uncontradictory. She dared to hang herself in the prince's dormitory to destroy your luck. According to Qin's laws, she will be the three tribes of the Yi tribe."

Qin Lei couldn't help but chuckled, and the prince asked strangely: "What's wrong? What's so funny?"

Qin Lei shook his head and smiled bitterly: "No, I just remembered something funny."

The prince patted his shoulder hard and returned to his seat and said warmly: "Next time there is such a thing, drive people out early in the morning and don't leave them in the house. Don't make it as unscrupulous as today."

Qin Lei laughed silently and wanted to say, "Isn't that a prostitute?" But he was really not in the mood to make this boring joke.

The prince knew that he had just arrived and had to adapt. After thinking about it, he smiled and said, "After all, he is the first woman in Daqin. The second brother will help you stop this matter. Then he will find a foreign house, dismiss her and send her out. Do you think it's okay?"

Seeing that the prince was very determined, Qin Lei had to thank the prince with a wry smile.

The prince nodded and saw Qin Lei feeling lost, comforted him: "Fifth brother, don't be too careful, second brother didn't blame you. I'll send you to Master Zhang to learn etiquette, so you won't make such a mistake. Come on, have dinner first." He gently tapped the edge of the table, and the palace servants who had been waiting for a long time served various lunches.

The meal was boring. After the meal, he said goodbye to the prince. Qin Lei returned to the attic, sat beside the girl's bed, looking at the sleeping face. The quiet needles in the room could be heard, but his heart was surging.

When Qin Lei came to this world, he was placed under house arrest in the Qi State hostage. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was dependent on each other for his life. Then he planned to return to China, which could be said to be a respectful and polite person, or a humble person. Then on the way back, three hundred Tiehyung followed him and regarded him as his master. He had never cared about his identity.

It can be said that he has always regarded the identity of the Prince of Qin as an available tool to seize resources that benefit his own survival. Besides, in Qi, no one would really take the princes of other countries seriously.

However, he did not realize that since he entered the Great Qin and entered Zhongdu, this ethereal and empty identity has become concretized. This identity brings not only glorious status, but also many constraints and many unscrupulous ones.

Many of his unintentional actions may bring many unbearable disasters to those he has contacted.

This is the light brought to him by imperial power, but this light is too sharp for ordinary people.

The girl on the bed kicked her legs slightly and called him back from her contemplation. Qin Lei checked and everything was normal, but it was just an unconscious action in a nightmare.

It was then that he carefully looked at the girl's face for the first time, with her pale goose-egg face, long eyelashes, cute little nose, and tightly pursed mouth. Her forehead was wet because of a nightmare, and a few strands of hair stuck to it, which was pitiful.

Qin Lei personally massaged Nian Yao three times a day, plus supplemented with decoctions. After a few days, the girl's pulse gradually stabilized and all physical signs became normal.

But he was reluctant to wake up for a long time, and the two imperial physicians Huang Xu had no choice. Qin Lei knew that this might be the role of the patient's body self-protection, and he might wake up at any time. But he might become a vegetable.

The prince has mentioned the matter of finding a good house for him several times, and he really can't delay it anymore.

One morning seven days later, a carriage drove out from the back door of the East Palace, passed through the residence of the princes and nobles, and followed Wuyi Lane, and walked to a quiet alley.

Qin Lei, wearing a plain robe, carefully hugged the sleeping girl from the carriage, and walked into a small blue brick courtyard under Shen Qing's escort.

A large locust tree was planted in the yard, with a booming crown covering most of the yard. Inside, several maids and servants had already come to the north room facing Qin Lei.

The room had been cleaned and the bedding inside was new. Qin Lei gently placed the girl who had a strange relationship with him on the kang and stroked the hair on her head.

After watching for a while, I took my gaze back and said to the maid who was serving the side: "I'm sorry, I'll take care of you all, I'll see you every day."

After saying that, he said to Shen Qing: "Set a small team post here."

Shen Qing nodded and said that he would not mention the arrangements after going down.

Qin Lei walked out of the house and sat down on the stone bench under the locust tree, motionless. The guards around him naturally held their breath and spread out gently to avoid disturbing His Highness.
