Dressed as a villain's stepmother, I use spiritual springs to raise cubs

"I don't know." Kang Heng lowered his head, seeing that Li Chen seemed to be troubled by the previous problem, he continued, "However, the prince usually calls himself the king, but... in front of Xia Bai'an, he naturally calls himself '" I', this subordinate thinks that maybe the lord has some special arrangements for Xia Bai'an, or maybe he is trying to win him over."

Li Chen's eyes had a dark and unclear look.

There is no arrangement and no coercion.

Everything is just natural.

Thinking of this, Li Chen slowly closed his eyes and ordered Kang Heng.

"In the future, not only should we keep an eye on Mo Che, but also Xia Bai'an."

"Does the lord still want to win over Xia Bai'an?" Kang Heng was puzzled.

A little imperial doctor can't do anything at all.

However, Li Chen didn't have to tell Xia Bai'an when the rabbit was born, but for some reason, the prince still told Xia Bai'an the truth himself, and he was very puzzled about it.

Li Chen did not answer this question.

……

Millennium Hall.

Concubine Degui almost smashed everything that could be smashed at hand, and the palace people were afraid to go forward.

Li Jie sat in the corner with a sullen face, his eyes full of murderous intent.

"Xia Bai'an... I think she is deliberately against us!"

"She really doesn't want to live anymore!" Concubine Degui sat down again panting, her eyes filled with anger, "I think she was the one who poisoned you, Jie'er! The nurse and the imperial physician have been by our side for a long time, how could they suddenly betray you with poison? , it must be her."

Li Jie nodded: "Mother and Concubine are right. Nunnies and imperial physicians are people we use frequently, so why would they attack us for no reason? But Xia Bai'an actually asked King An and the Queen Mother to come forward to help... And look at her That calm look seems to have known that such a thing would happen a long time ago, and prepared words."

Concubine Degui gradually calmed down after listening to her son's words.

"Jie'er thinks she caused this incident on purpose? What's the purpose?"

"King An and Royal Father have always been at odds, and Royal Father is so wary of King An, probably because he is worried that King An will seek power and usurp the throne. Today, Xia Bai'an and King An have such a quarrel together, it seems... to let our mother and son be together. If you cause trouble in front of your father and make your father dislike him, wouldn't he lose an opponent?"

The more Li Jie spoke, the more excited he became, and he believed that every word and every word he said was true.

Concubine Degui followed his train of thought and her expression became even uglier.

"If that's true for King An, then it's a wolf's ambition... But Xia Bai'an is clearly married to Mo Che, why doesn't he help us, instead of helping King An?"

"Mother and concubine. King An is of royal blood, and Mo Che is just a humble kid with some brains and martial arts. You and I can tell which is more important." Li Jie looked coldly.

Concubine Degui suddenly realized, and slapped the armrest hard.

"Jie'er said so, the concubine mother understands. This Xia Bai'an is really a picky thing, no wonder she didn't give me a good face after Mo Che left, and she had already thought about finding another family... Then King An is really good. That’s right, I actually fell in love with a country woman!”

Li Jie sneered: "After all, King An's fiefdom is also very barren. I'm afraid he and Xia Bai'an cherished each other and cooperated secretly... It's just that today the emperor has some criticisms about our mother and son. My brother was the first to go."

"The matter in front of the emperor must be done well, but this Xia Bai'an has to be eliminated."

Concubine Degui straightened her back suddenly, thinking that her elder brother Sun Taiwei had made great achievements abroad and wanted to train Mo Che to be a right-hand man, so he must have told Mo Che everything.

If Mo Che didn't see Xia Bai'an's true face, and accidentally leaked the matter of Sun Taiwei to Xia Bai'an, and then asked Xia Bai'an to transfer it to King An, then wouldn't it be easy for their Sun family or their own son Li Jie? Backstabbed?

She will never allow this to happen.

Concubine Degui paused her words: "Mo Che can stay, Xia Bai'an must die!"

……

Xia Baian stayed up all night.

Although the Empress Dowager secretly backed her up and found a small side hall for her to spend the night alone, when she thought of today's banquet, everyone's thoughts were entangled and undercurrents surged, and she just fiddled with her, a rabbit, on the chessboard. , I felt sick in my stomach.

She missed Mo Che inexplicably.

If Mo Che was by her side, she would still have someone to confide in.

Even if she doesn't want to think deeply about some things sometimes, Mo Che will help her think about it and check for gaps.

She looked at the hazy moonlight shining through the window paper, and buried herself in the pillow again.

"Really... It's not that I can't live without a man..."

Why do you always think about Mo Che?

She obviously walked all the way by herself before, and she never thought of relying on anyone.

Why is only Mo Che so different?

Xia Bai'an racked his brains all night, but he couldn't come up with an answer. He only got a pair of dark circles under his eyes.

After washing and dressing up in the morning, she returned the snow rabbit clothes, only wearing a goose-yellow jacket and skirt sent by the queen mother, and simply tied her hair in a bun with green jade hairpins.

The palace gate should be open now, she can leave the palace and go home with Yun Hanyi!

She happily jumped out of the palace, the imperial physician in the imperial hospital, the senior who helped Li Jie take a pulse for the second time yesterday, suddenly came up to her and reminded her: "Today is the first day of the lunar new year, the imperial physicians are not allowed to leave the palace."

"..."

Xia Bai'an's smile froze on his face.

The senior stared at her for a while, then suddenly bowed his hands slightly to her: "Before I saw you were young and a woman, I felt disdainful, it was my senior's fault."

Xia Bai'an came back to his senses, and quickly bowed to the senior and cupped his hands: "Don't dare, this junior thought that all the seniors in the imperial hospital were old and stubborn, and they only treated me coldly, so they treated each other coldly, it's the etiquette of juniors Incomprehensible ahead."

After finishing speaking, both of them looked up at the same time, but smiled at each other.

Xia Bai'an admired her senior for being willing to apologize to her junior.

The senior felt that Xia Bai'an, as a junior, dared to admit his mistakes.

The senior straightened up: "Tao Ji."

Xia Bai'an didn't dare to straighten up, and bent slightly: "Xia Bai'an."

The two are considered acquainted.

Xia Bai'an followed Tao Ji to the imperial hospital, only then did he know that the imperial physician who was beheaded yesterday was indeed the head of the imperial hospital, now that he left, the seniors at the top of the imperial hospital naturally changed.

The rest of the people are indeed a little old and stubborn.

But Tao Ji has been an imperial physician for several years, so he is quite familiar with her. He told her many details about being an imperial physician, and introduced other imperial physicians to get acquainted with her. He was busy all morning.

Although Xia Bai'an thanked Tao Ji, when it was time for lunch, Yun Hanyi specially sent someone over.

"My lord, the Prime Minister, has already left the palace with the eldest lady. My lord, the Prime Minister, knows that the doctor Xia will be on duty, and plans to send a message for you back home later."

"Thank Cheng for me...thank foster father for me."

Xia Bai'an nodded slightly.

Just because Yun Hanyi was willing to stand up for her last night, she finally called her adoptive father willingly.
