Chapter 91: The Imperial Concubine Offers to Propose Marriage on Your Behalf

On the medicine boxes, several slips of paper were pasted.

Words were written on the slips; they were instructions for the medicine written by Bai Wei herself, for fear that the people of Daliang would not understand the complex medical labels.

"Xiao Moting, I am fine. This is the medicine I have here for treating heart ailments."

"This illness requires recuperation. As long as Yunfei takes the medicine according to the instructions and rests her body with a calm mind, her heart ailment will not easily recur."

"Hurry and take the medicine to give to your mother. I will send medicine over periodically; when the time comes, have someone drive a Minivan to Shengjing and use a Drone to secretly deliver it to your mother."

"I have exhausted quite a bit of energy and need to rest now."

The elegant handwriting had not yet dried completely.

Holding the slip of paper, Xiao Moting vaguely smelled a faint fragrance remaining on it; it was the scent of her.

His heart was filled to the brim with a sense of warmth.

At the same time, his heart tightened again.

It seemed that it was not so easy for Bai Wei to come to Daliang.

Xiao Moting immediately wrote a reply.

"Shennü Daren, how are you feeling? Are you alright?"

"Reply to me once you have rested."

After he finished writing, he took out the medicine.

A large pile of medicine was placed on the ground, stacked into a small hill.

There were traditional Chinese medicines, Western medicines, and health supplements beneficial to the heart...

Among them, there were quite a few Chinese patent medicines.

Tongxinlu Capsule, Musk Heart-Protecting Pill, and the life-saving Quick-Acting Heart Pill...

Imperial Physician Han was stunned; he stepped forward quickly and picked up several boxes of medicine.

"What... what kind of medicine are these?"

"Why have I never seen such a method of pharmaceutical preparation?"

Xiao Moting said in a deep voice, "Shennü... my friend said that these medicines can alleviate Mother's heart ailment."

Imperial Physician Han picked up a box of Tongxinlu Capsule, opened it to sniff carefully, then bit open a capsule and closed his eyes to savor it.

"In this medicine, there is ginseng, borneol, sandalwood... all of them are top-quality, precious medicinal ingredients, no fewer than twenty varieties!"

"Fourth Prince, this medicine has miraculous effects on heart ailments; it can treat deficiency of heart Qi, resolve blood stasis, and clear the heart orifices... it is truly a divine medicine!"

After speaking, without waiting for Xiao Moting to answer, he hurriedly opened another box of Quick-Acting Heart Pill.

"Divine medicine, truly a divine medicine!" Imperial Physician Han sniffed the heart pills, a look of infatuation and madness appearing on his face. "Prince, this friend of yours is simply a divine doctor of the current age, with unparalleled medical skills! These medicines have extraordinary miraculous effects; even the best Imperial Physician in the palace could not produce such divine medicines!"

A hint of pride could not help but show on Xiao Moting's handsome face.

"What she knows is more than just medical skills."

Hearing Imperial Physician Han praise Bai Wei, he also felt a small sense of pride in his heart.

As expected!

His Shennü Daren is truly possessed of unparalleled medical skills and peerless intelligence!

In this world, it seems there is nothing Bai Wei cannot do!

Imperial Physician Han had already calmed down from his excitement; he stood up and bowed respectfully with both hands.

"Prince, with these medicines, Yunfei's heart ailment can be alleviated."

"However, this humble official has one thing he does not understand."

"Prince, this 'Minivan'... why use flour to wrap a carriage? And this 'Drone', what kind of chicken is it?"

Xiao Moting was taken aback. He looked up and met Imperial Physician Han's serious, rigid gaze, and could not help but curl his lips, followed by a slight blush on his handsome face.

Perhaps, when Bai Wei first saw him, he was likely just as foolish.

A sound came from the palace.

Xiao Moting came back to his senses, turned around immediately, and stepped quickly into the palace hall.

"Mother!"

On the bed, Yunfei had already awakened. Hearing Xiao Moting's voice, she could not help but tremble all over.

She weakly raised her head and looked at Xiao Moting in shock.

"You... you are..."

"Mother, your son has returned!"

Xiao Moting stepped forward, knelt down by the bed with a thud, his eyes reddening.

Yunfei's gaze flickered, her chest heaving violently.

She stared fixedly at Xiao Moting, as if she had not yet regained her senses.

Lai Mama stepped forward to support her, stroking her back continuously while whispering softly.

"Niangniang, the Fourth Prince has returned."

"Returned... returned..."

Yunfei muttered, as if she had lost her soul.

Suddenly!

She reached out her hand, grabbed Xiao Moting's hand tightly, and burst into tears.

"Mo Ting, have you really returned?"

"Am I not dreaming? My Mo Ting, whom I haven't seen for sixteen years, has really returned... from Beijiang..."

Yunfei pulled Xiao Moting into her embrace. She cried and laughed at the same time, her tears rolling down like broken pearls.

"Mo Ting, my Mo Ting!"

"Mother has thought of you every day and every night for these sixteen years!"

"I feared you were freezing and starving in Beijiang, feared you were afraid of the dark at night, crying as you missed your mother..."

"You have grown up, grown taller..."

A man does not shed tears easily.

At this moment, Xiao Moting's tears finally broke through the dam.

He leaned on Consort Yun's frail shoulder and spoke with a choked voice.

"Mother, your son has missed you too."

Mother and son had been forced apart, and only after sixteen long years were they finally able to meet.

The two held each other and wept bitterly.

Standing to the side, Lai Mama and Caiyun also turned away to wipe their tears.

Physician Han also felt his nose grow sore.

"What a sin this is..."

The night had grown deep.

The two, who had held each other and wept for a long time, finally calmed down from their agitation.

Consort Yun held onto Xiao Moting and spoke for a long time.

She kept holding him tightly, fearing that if she let go, he would disappear.

Xiao Moting also explained the situation to Consort Yun, including how Bai Wei helped him in Beijiang and helped him rush back to Shengjing.

"Mother, it was my... close friend who saved your life."

Consort Yun's eyes were still red and swollen, and her brows were slightly furrowed, "Ting'er, where is this friend of yours? Why not invite her into the palace? She has helped you so much and even saved my life; I must thank her in person."

"She is not here."

Xiao Moting naturally could not tell Consort Yun that Bai Wei was a person from another world.

"Then hurry and invite her over," Consort Yun said urgently, "Do not be impolite."

"This..."

Xiao Moting hesitated.

He could not go to Bai Wei's world, and Bai Wei had exhausted her spirit just to come to Daliang once.

Seeing Xiao Moting lower his head, Consort Yun's brows furrowed, and her gaze fell from his face to his earlobes.

The tips of his ears were already bright red.

At this, Consort Yun understood.

Her eyes shifted, and she asked softly.

"Ting'er, is this young lady... your sweetheart?"

In an instant!

Xiao Moting's entire body stiffened.

He hesitated for a moment, then raised his head, "Mother, why do you ask your son this?"

Xiao Moting's expression was composed and his gaze calm, but the tips of his ears were even redder, as if they were about to drip blood.

In her heart, Consort Yun smiled calmly.

No one knows a son better than his mother.

Others might not know, but she was clear that her son, though taciturn and not one to easily reveal his heart, was also stubborn.

He clearly liked someone, yet he would refuse to admit it even if beaten to death.

But whenever he was shy, his ears would turn red.

The more embarrassed he was, the redder his ears would become.

Consort Yun did not expose him, only smiled.

"Ting'er, your imperial brothers were already married at your age."

"Now that you are twenty-two, it is also time to discuss marriage."

"If you have taken a liking to a young lady from some family, do not hide it; Mother will go propose marriage for you, so as not to delay the young lady."
