Herb Family [Rebirth]

Chapter 87

Bai Heng, who was far away in Meizhen, didn't know about the back house of the Bai family.

However, after Mr. Bai was rescued and returned, Bai Heng wrote a letter from home, and asked people to send him back to the Bai family in Tongcheng as soon as possible.

Bai Heng knew that since his grandfather lost the news, there must have been a lot of turmoil in the Bai family, not to mention the restlessness of the people in the side branch, but the second uncle in the family has been watching over him.

The Bai family, which lost the old man's seat, doesn't need outsiders to rob it, and it can destroy the Bai family by itself.

I don't know how my mother supported the Bai family alone?

Now that his grandfather has been found, he is also relieved, and now he only hopes that his body will be recuperated quickly, so that they can go home early.

What Bai Heng thought of, how could Mr. Bai not think of it?

Therefore, even if he wanted to return to his heart, he would obediently cooperate with Bai Heng to recuperate his body. He was a doctor himself, so he naturally knew the condition of his body, and with Bai Heng's help in recuperating, he recovered very quickly.

Besides, the old man didn't suffer any crime when he was on Wolong Mountain.

So after recuperating for about a month, the old man discussed with Bai Heng that he could go on the road.

After evaluating the old man's body, Bai Heng made a careful decision and asked someone to prepare a spacious and comfortable carriage before deciding to set off home.

On the day they left Tongcheng, everyone got up early, and the servants had already prepared two carriages, one for the old man and the other for Bai Heng and Lu Qi, and put their luggage by the way.

Bai Heng personally helped the old man into the carriage, made sure that the interior of the carriage was comfortable enough, and even sent a servant to wait on the old man.

After everything was arranged, Bai Heng and Lu Qi led the people out of the courtyard.

After setting off on the road, Bai Heng and Lu Qi finally had time to sit down and have a good chat.

Previously, Bai Heng and Lu Qi had no time to chat properly due to the busy schedule of various affairs. Now that they were finally free, the two began to chat about what happened after the separation.

Lu Qi is most concerned about Bai Heng's situation in the palace. You must know that Bai Heng is going to see a doctor for the prince. What kind of person is the prince, if he is not careful, he may be imprisoned.

Furthermore, the identity of the crown prince is too sensitive, and the present majesty has gone through a lot before ascending the throne, and the current court must be unstable, after all, the turmoil was too thrilling.

Who would have thought that King Su, who was originally charged with treason, would finally ascend the throne.

Over the past few days, the major powers in the capital have been shuffling their cards one after another. It is unknown how many aristocratic families have fallen, and many upstarts have risen.

Under such circumstances, Bai Heng, a petty doctor, is not enough for others to press down with one finger.

So ever since Bai Heng was called to Beijing, Lu Qi has been worried, not a day without worry.

He was afraid that Bai Heng would be used as a pawn and sacrificed in a corner he didn't know.

The worry in Lu Qi's heart is not Bai Heng's worry.

Recalling the mood he had when he first entered Beijing, Bai Heng sighed, "Finally he has lived up to His Majesty's trust, His Highness is already in great safety."

Lu Qi understood the meaning of Bai Heng's words. He reached out and patted Bai Heng's shoulder to comfort him, but he couldn't speak too clearly, "That's true. I hope your highness will be safe forever."

Of course, we want His Royal Highness to live a safe and stable life. It is best to go all the way to enthronement and then to... so that the palace will not think of Bai Heng again.

However, this idea is too rebellious, and it is naturally impossible for Lu Qi to say it.

When Bai Heng heard the words, he also felt the same in his heart, so naturally he didn't say it out of his mouth, the two just exchanged a look of understanding.

After that, they stopped talking about the capital, and began to turn the topic to what happened after Lu Qi returned home.

Speaking of what happened after Lu Qi returned home, Bai Heng remembered what Xiao Qi had mentioned before, and asked, "I heard that the Xu family has taken a fancy to Third Brother?"

Lu Qi was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect Bai Heng to know about this matter. You must know that after he settled down in Meizhen, although he wrote a letter to Bai Heng, he didn't write about the Xu family's affairs.

He touched his nose, endured the embarrassment and said, "So you've heard of it too."

"Well, when I suddenly lost news about you, I was in a hurry. His Highness couldn't see it, so he helped me find out." Bai Heng said.

It was only then that Lu Qi realized that it was Xiao Qi's big mouth.

He and Xiao Qi had known each other for a while, so they naturally knew each other's temperament, and the other party must have done it on purpose, just to see his own jokes.

"Your Highness really..." Lu Qi twitched the corners of his mouth, really not knowing what to say.

"Your Highness is really kind." Bai Heng continued with a smile.

Lu Qi pulled the corners of his lips, but still couldn't agree with his conscience, Bai Heng looked at his face and smiled unkindly.

"However, the Xu family is too impatient, so they are naturally inferior in His Majesty's eyes." Bai Heng said again after laughing enough.

"The Xu family has nothing to do. After all, they offended His Majesty before, and if they don't try to make up for it, they will follow in the footsteps of other families." Lu Qi said lightly, without any intention of treating the Xu family as a foreign family. .

An idea flashed through Bai Heng's mind when he heard the words.

Bai Heng recalled the day when he confessed to his relatives with a drop of blood, that night Lu Qi had a nightmare, and the few words uttered in the dream allowed Bai Heng to piece together Lu Qi's life experience.

If Lu Qi is really not Mrs. Lu's parent and child, it's no wonder he has no feelings for the Xu family.

Furthermore, if Lu Qi's biological mother died at Mrs. Lu's hands, then the Xu family is not only not a relative, but also an enemy to Lu Qi.

But Bai Heng didn't mean to inquire about Lu Qi's privacy, so he skipped mentioning it.

Lu Qi was very nervous at first, fearing that Bai Heng would dislike him for being too indifferent to the Xu family. After all, for those who don't know, the Xu family is his natal family.

Seeing Bai Heng's reaction now, Lu Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

He doesn't care what the world thinks of him, and he doesn't care what other people think, but he can't bear Bai Heng to despise him, criticize him or even alienate him.

He didn't care if anyone misunderstood him, but if Bai Heng misunderstood him, he would be suffocated just by imagining it.

Bai Heng is a relative he recognizes and a close friend. As early as Bai Heng called him third brother, he took Bai Heng under his wing. Although his strength is still very weak, he will do everything possible to protect him. Live in Baiheng.

Now, seeing that Bai Heng didn't blame himself because he treated the Xu family coldly, he felt deeply that he had not misjudged the person.

Bai Heng didn't know the sigh in Lu Qi's heart. He was afraid that talking about the Xu family would poke Lu Qi's scars, so he wanted to change the subject quickly.

Unexpectedly, Lu Qi mentioned it himself, "Xiao Heng, I have nothing to do with the Xu family."

Bai Heng was stunned when he heard the words, he didn't expect Lu Qi to drop a thunder when he opened his mouth.

"I haven't actually found out what happened back then, but I really have nothing to do with the Xu family." Lu Qi said lightly.

"...So, third brother, you really don't belong to Mrs. Lu...?" Bai Heng said considering his words.

"Well, no." Lu Qi knew what he wanted to ask, and answered calmly.

"Then do you know who your biological mother is?"

"I've been told that, I'm just not sure if what she said is true."

"Who will tell you this?"

"Of course it's someone who dislikes Mrs. Lu."

Bai Heng thought, it's not just that Madam Lu is not pleasing to the eye, that person must have hated Madam Lu, otherwise how could he tell Lu Qi such a big event?

What's more, that person's means should not be underestimated, he was able to inquire about these privacy, and that person was able to tell Lu Qi about the matter without disturbing Mrs. Lu.

Bai Heng had a bold guess in his mind.

"Is that person the maid next to Mrs. Lu?"

"...Xiaoheng is smart." Lu Qi sighed.

"What about the maid?"

"...not here anymore." Lu Qi didn't want Bai Heng to know his dark side, so he couldn't directly say that the maid couldn't survive the torture, so he said vaguely.

It's just that Bai Heng is not really young, how could he not guess the fate of that maid.

"So the third brother didn't ask, why did she tell you?" Bai Heng thought, according to what Lu Qi said, he hasn't investigated clearly what happened back then, so it can be seen that the maid only revealed part of the truth.

"Well, she just insisted that my biological mother was someone else, and she refused to say anything else." Every time Lu Qi thought of this, his expression would be dull, but he didn't expect that a little maid would be so stubborn.

But that maid really has a backbone, she just endured it without opening her mouth.

Bai Heng guessed the possible origin of the servant girl, she sounded like a dead man secretly raised by some aristocratic family.It seems that the Xu family is not at peace. As the married daughter of the Xu family, Mrs. Lu cannot escape the vortex of struggle.

It's just that it's not easy for him to conjecture, he just wants to mention Lu Qi in the future.

After Lu Qi confessed the secret in his heart, consciously and Bai Heng became closer.

In fact, he didn't expect that he would tell Bai Heng such privacy so easily. Although he had long thought of sharing it with Bai Heng, according to his original intention, he didn't intend to confess his life experience so early.

It was only a momentary emotion just now, and I couldn't help but blurted out.

But it's okay to be honest, Lu Qi felt a lot more relaxed, and Bai Heng's attitude towards him has not changed, which makes him feel warmer.

In fact, Bai Heng's feeling in his heart at this time is also a little hard to understand.

He didn't expect Lu Qi to confess his life experience.

You know, for Lu Qi to confess such privacy is tantamount to sprinkling salt on the wound. With Lu Qi's arrogant temperament, it should be very uncomfortable.

But he couldn't deny that besides the shock, there was also a touch of joy in his heart.

Glad that Lu Qi didn't defend him, glad that Lu Qi didn't treat him as an outsider, and glad that he finally walked into Lu Qi's heart.

You know, he decided to hug Lu Qi's thigh very early.After getting along with Lu Qi, he was even more impressed by his intelligence and character. In fact, in the bottom of Bai Heng's heart, Lu Qi in his previous life has always been the target he looked up to.

This is also the reason why he decided to make friends with Lu Qi as soon as he met Lu Qi after his rebirth.

Lu Qi's tenacious heart and his attitude of not giving in to difficulties made Bai Heng in his previous life feel extremely dazzling.

Although everyone said that Lu Qi was a man of deep scheming and ruthless methods, but in his situation, how many people could break through the world like Lu Qi?

His deep scheming was forced out, his biological mother was murdered, and he was poisoned and weak. If he was not more powerful, he would have been skinned, dismantled, and swallowed alive.
