Chapter 163
Hearing Han Jiu's reply, Nangong Yi looked at him excitedly and said, "That's great. To be honest with you, Master Han, I am here with my elder sister to seek medical treatment from the son of the genius doctor Xiye.
My eldest sister has suffered from eye disease since she was young and still cannot see. Our Nangong family has sought medical treatment for many years but to no avail. Some time ago, I accidentally heard about Xiye's story, so I beg Master Han to let Xiye treat my eldest sister's eye disease."
Han Jiu frowned as he listened to the voice that was exactly the same as Jian Ning's. Chi was closest to her, and he clearly felt that her abnormal mood was related to the man in front of him.
But as far as he knew, this was the first time Han Jiu met Nangong Yi and they had never met before, so why was there such strong hostility?
Seeing Han Jiu didn't say anything, Nangong Yi got a little anxious. Just as he was about to open his mouth, he heard the voice of his elder sister behind him, "It was my younger brother who was rude. Master Han, please don't blame me. I, Nangong Luoxin, would like to apologize to you on behalf of my younger brother."
Han Jiu raised an eyebrow and looked at the woman whose eyes were covered by the white veil. "Miss, you are too kind." Then he looked at Nangong Yi and frowned slightly. "Where did you hear about Xi Ye? Everyone should go to the genius doctor Qiao Yu. Not many people know about Xi Ye."
Nangong Yi knew that he had made Han Jiu suspicious, suspecting that he and his group had bad intentions. He knew about the rumors about Han Jiu, and of course understood his suspicion.
He bowed and said, "To be honest, sir, our Nangong family and the Liu family are old friends. A few days ago, Young Master Liu happened to be a guest at our mansion. When he heard about my eldest sister, he mentioned the past night."
"Master Liu? Which Master Liu?" Liu Jieyu? Impossible. Although that man was reckless, he was never a talkative or nosy person.
"The third son of the Liu family," Nangong Yi answered truthfully.
"Oh, if you hadn't met me, how would you have found Xiye?" If the third young master still had a chance, Liu Jieyu said that he had a good relationship with his third brother, so it was not impossible to know Xiye. It's just that the boy spoke too quickly. I have to tell him when I see Young Master Liu next time.
Nangong Yi smiled bitterly, "The third son of the Liu family said that his eldest brother, the eldest son Liu, is good friends with the young master Han and also has a friendship with the young master Xi. This time I am going to ask the third son for help and see if I can find the Han Mansion through the eldest son and ask Xi Ye for medical treatment. The third son is waiting for me and my sister in the imperial capital right now."
"Then you should follow the original plan and go to the imperial capital to find the third son of the Liu family and see if he can ask the eldest son Liu to help let Xiye treat your elder sister." After saying that, Han Jiu stood up and prepared to leave.
Seeing Han Jiu leaving, Xiaoya anxiously shouted, "Hey, why are you like this? Our young lady and young master treat you so politely, it's so rare, why don't you know how to appreciate it.
You are deliberately making things difficult for us. It’s not like you don’t know Xiye. It’s not like you don’t pay him to treat our young lady’s eyes. Our Nangong family has plenty of money. What’s wrong with you…”
"Xiaoya, shut up." Nangong Luoxin angrily stopped Xiaoya from continuing speaking. This girl was usually spoiled too much.
Xiaoya pouted and said nothing, but her expression was very dissatisfied. Nangong Luoxin hurriedly stepped forward and bowed slightly in the direction of Han Jiu. "It is because I am usually too lenient with the maids. I will definitely punish them severely when I return this time."
Han Jiu originally wanted to leave, but when he saw Nangong Luoxin's attitude again, he stopped, turned around and looked her up and down.
This woman has a noble temperament, and at first glance, she is the daughter of a wealthy family. She behaves properly. From beginning to end, she has never been inappropriate. It seems that this woman has received a good etiquette education since she was a child.
Han Jiu looked at her, and she seemed to be able to feel Han Jiu's gaze on her. She remained quiet and faced Han Jiu with a gentle smile on her face.
Nangong Yi saw Han Jiu staring at his elder sister with worry. Their family had been doing business for generations and naturally had contact with officials. They were also familiar with people in the martial arts world because of their business for many years, so he knew Han Jiu.
But it was also a simple understanding, but just from this simple understanding, he knew that Han Jiu was a martial arts expert, cruel and ruthless. And he was extremely lustful, so when he saw Han Jiu staring at his elder sister like this, he seemed to step forward slightly unintentionally and blocked his elder sister.
Seeing Nangong Yi's actions, Han Jiu raised her eyebrows and chuckled, "You and I don't know each other well. It doesn't make sense for me to help you just because you know me, Han Jiu.
There are many people in the world who know me, Han Jiu. Do I have to help everyone who comes up to me and says, "I know you?" He looked at Xiaoya, who looked dissatisfied, and said, "You may have overestimated the people and things you know. Your young master and young lady are like gods to you, but to me, they are nothing." What a joke! He turned around and left.
Fu Sangke and Bai Senting stood up and followed Han Jiu when they saw him leave. Chi Yuan looked at the four people who were standing there in a daze with an amused look on his face and said, "The Nangong family and the Liu family are equally powerful. Both are wealthy families that can rival a country. You must be used to being flattered by others." After saying that, he left.
After Han Jiu and the others left, Xiao Ya felt so aggrieved that she almost cried, "Miss, did I do something wrong?"
Nangong Luoxin sighed softly, "Forget it, let's go to the imperial capital first and see if Young Master Liu is willing to help."
Zhang Shu and Nangong Yi both looked disappointed. They had offended Han Jiu this time. They were afraid that even if Young Master Liu was willing to help, Han Jiu would not agree.
Nangong Yi thought back to what Han Jiu had just said. It seemed that he was too conceited. He was so conceited that he had no idea that there were always people better than him. He raised his hand to help Nangong Luoxin walk away. "Sister, I should have listened to your teachings. Today I finally know that what you always advised me was right."
Nangong Luo patted Nangong Yi's hand with relief, "Our Nangong family still has to rely on you in the end. It's good that you know it now. It's not too late."
Han Jiu and his group hurried back to the imperial capital. Han Jiu did not go back home directly but went to Yan Hongzhi instead. Chi Yuan took Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai to play somewhere unknown. Fu Sangke and Bai Senting were each busy with the tasks assigned to them by the emperor.
When Yan Hongzhi saw Han Jiu coming, he excitedly picked her up and spun her around for several times, but when he heard that her throat was so dry that she could hardly make a sound, he felt distressed and didn't know what to do. Han Jiu looked at his anxious look and comforted him, "It's just a cold, look how anxious you are."
Yan Hongzhi knew it was just a cold, but he still felt bad. "Have you taken your medicine? Go back and let Xiye take a look."
Han Jiu grinned. It was rare for this person to let her leave on her own initiative. It was not easy. "I have something to tell you. On my way to see the emperor, I encountered people from Zhao who came to assassinate me. Can you help me check it out?"
"Zhao State? Assassinated you? Are you hurt?" Yan Hongzhi looked at Han Jiu uneasily.
"No, they were all killed by Chi Yuan and I." Han Jiu took a sip of water. His throat was so uncomfortable. It seemed that he really had to let Xi Ye take a look.
"I'm glad you're not hurt. How dare Zhao State try to touch you? Have you lived enough?" Yan Hongzhi narrowed his eyes.
Han Jiu grabbed his hand and soothed him, "Don't be impulsive, check what happened first. Maybe there is another reason."
"Okay, I got it." Of course I will get to the bottom of it. If you want to touch my woman, I will skin you alive.
Because Han Jiu was sick, Yan Hongzhi let her go with great disappointment, but before leaving he couldn't help but kiss her hard on the mouth a few times.
After Han Jiu left, Yan Hongzhi immediately asked Chang Hao and Bing Jian to send people to investigate the assassination of Han Jiu by the Zhao people. When Chang Hao and Bing Jian learned about this, they were shocked.
The two of them were not worried about Han Jiu's safety at all. They were surprised who was so bold as to think of touching that person.
Not to mention that gentleman's own martial arts skills, the power of their master and Song Ruochen alone is enough to give them a hard time. Now there is also the royal family of Anping Kingdom. Who is so blind that you want to tease him for no reason?
