"Show my goodwill? Is there anything about you that I should show my goodwill to? I'm a doctor. I'm only giving you these things because your hand is cracked. I'm not trying to show my goodwill to you because I pity you. "
After that, Wei Ziyao simply put the things aside and turned to leave.
She went to the Eighth Princess' place. Qi Jianning was playing on the swing. She was surprised to see her.
"Ziyao, why are you here? Where's Sixth Brother? "
"I entered the palace with him. Here, this is your medicine."
"Medicine? Liu Shaoyin gave it to me two days ago. "Qi Jianning was puzzled.
"Mm, I know. I'm just looking for an excuse to enter the palace with Ki Chien-chul." She sat on the swing.
"Wow, you're so frank. But since you're so frank, why can't you be frank with Sixth Brother? If you want to enter the palace with him and are worried about him, why do you have to find an excuse? "
"I'm worried about him. I only treat him as a friend. He saved my life, and I'm grateful to him. But … I don't want to show too much concern and make him misunderstand."
Wei Ziyao told Qi Jianning the truth. Qi Jianning was confused.
"Didn't you like Sixth Brother since you were young? Why don't you like him anymore after you got him? But you can't do anything about it now. You're already married. "
It was too difficult for a woman in ancient times to get a divorce. She had no human rights!
After hiding at the Eighth Princess' place for a while, they chatted. Wei Ziyao easily changed the topic to Consort Duan.
"Consort Consort Duan seems to be very strict since young. Her concern for Sixth Brother is limited. She doesn't seem to like to take care of him. Otherwise, why would Sixth Brother be taken home by Imperial Grandmother? However, I heard that Sixth Brother had smallpox when he was young, and it was Her Highness Consort Duan who stayed by his side day and night to take care of him. That was how he was saved. There was a period of time when Her Highness Consort Duan contradicted Imperial Father and was grounded. Sixth Brother also accompanied her at all times. The two of them are so strange. "
Yes, it was very strange. It was because of this that Wei Ziyao asked about Consort Duan.
She definitely cared about Ki Chien-chul. That kind of panic and heartache could not be faked, but why did she deliberately distance herself from him?
Wei Ziyao couldn't figure it out, but seeing that it was almost time, she said goodbye and left.
She hadn't walked far when she saw Ki Chien-chul and Luo Yichen.
How could it be so accurate?
However, when he saw Ki Chien-chul's dark expression from afar, he knew that things were not going well.
"How is it?"
Ki Chien-chul was sulking and didn't reply.
Luo Yichen replied, "His Highness King Cheng has already dealt with the corruption in the snow disaster. The person he dealt with was the one our Royal Highness found. He seized a lot of stolen money and invested it all in the disaster area. That person is His Highness King Cheng's disciple. He is selfless and impartial. His Majesty is very pleased."
This simple sentence clearly expressed why Ki Chien-chul was angry.
"Oh no, you've been investigating for so long, but in the end it all went to someone else. This King Cheng acted quickly!"
"This King is not angry because he stole This King's credit, but because this matter is not over yet. It's not something that can be solved by killing one person and confiscating one's property. I wanted to continue investigating, but Imperial Father told me to go back and recuperate. How can This King be in the mood to recuperate now?"
Wei Ziyao felt that Ki Chien-chul was very smart, very powerful and very outstanding. But he … didn't know how to be flexible.
"I want to ask Royal Highness, if you continue investigating, who do you want to investigate? King Cheng? Or someone else? "
Wei Ziyao knew that this was very difficult for a person with very upright values to accept.
"His Majesty didn't tell you to continue investigating. Isn't it obvious enough? He's reminding you that this matter ends here. "
Hearing this, Luo Yichen felt that the Princess Consort was a real man!
She actually dared to say such things to the furious Royal Highness.
Unexpectedly, Ki Chien-chul only sighed.
"How could This King not know?! But the snow disaster caused so many people to lose their homes. I went there to take a look. It's not an exaggeration to say that corpses were everywhere. The children who froze to death in the snow could be piled up into a small mountain. If this was really done by Old Fourth, This King won't let him go. Why did Imperial Father … "
"Because those who died were not your Imperial Father's children."
