News of the death of Governor Qin Huang spread rapidly throughout the Qin Province as well as Shui City which still belonged to the Qin Province. Xiao Lang who had just regained his senses as the sun began to rise was shocked upon hearing the news. The young man had intended to rise soon, but was successfully prevented by Xu Mei.


"Miss Xu, let me get up," Xiao Lang said with a face of light. Xu Mei did not press Xiao Lang's request and put on a cold face.


"Miss .. please. I must leave immediately," Xiao Lang asked again.


Xu Mei snorted and looked away. The beautiful girl moved up from beside Xiao Lang and came out, but soon Xu Mei returned with the medicine bowl in her hand.


Xu Mei handed the bowl containing the hot potion to Xiao Lang. "Drink this. You can leave if you can."


Xiao Lang nodded, then received the cup with his left hand as his right hand could not be moved. When Xiao Lang took the medicine, his brows furrowed. "Why is it so bitter?"


"It's just plain water. If this alone can't you drink how can you be cured?" said Xu Mei.


Xiao Lang only grimaced, in one breath the next Xiao Lang gulped down the medicine in one gulp.


"Uhh..." Xiao Lang gave the empty bowl to Xu Mei. The girl went back to leave Xiao Lang alone.


Xu Xiao was drinking tea in his living room when he saw Xu Mei walking with a riled face, an expression that his daughter rarely showed.


"May'er, what's wrong? Why is your face so bent?" ask Xiao Lang.


Xu Mei placed the bowl she held on the table, then sat down before her father. "Dad, Lang Gege said if he had to leave at this time. I'm so upset to hear that."


Xu Xiao chuckled when he heard the reply spoken by his daughter. It seemed like her cold-hearted daughter was starting to become interested in the young man she was helping. However, Xu Xiao did not want to break the sense that his daughter was building. "What made Xiao Lang want to leave?"


Xu Mei reddened her lips, folded both hands in front of her chest and turned her face away. "Don't know. As soon as he heard the news of Qin governor's death he wanted to leave immediately. "


"Tabards of Governor Qin's death?" xu Xiao asked to make sure. Xu Mei nodded steadily answering Xu Xiao's question.


Xu Xiao turned his gaze out the window, staring at the falling snowflakes.


"I've heard that Governor Qin's son always wears white clothes. When viewed from age, it seems the same. What ... Xiao Lang has something to do with governor Qin?" mumbling Xu Xiao.


Xu Mei glanced back at her father. "Dad! Did you forget, if Young General Qin is burly? How was Lang Gege who looked like a scholar said to be related to the governor of Qin?


Xu Xiao looked at his little girl, a faint smile appearing on his lips that started to wrinkle. "Mei'er, since when did father say that Xiao Lang was the Young General?"


Xu Mei's face was red instantly as she subconsciously had thought too far. The girl got up from the seat without saying anything to Xu Xiao. Xu Xiao who saw that could only chuckle due to the unusual nature of his daughter.


After finishing the tea in the cup, Xu Xiao met Xiao Lang who was lying in the guest room. Xu Xiao could see the restless face that the young man he saved was feeling increasingly curious.


Xiao Lang noticed Xu Xiao's presence in his room, trying to sit down to pay his respects to his savior. Before Xiao Lang could sit down, Xu Xiao forced Xiao Lang to not move much. Xiao Lang nodded and thanked Xu Xiao for helping him.


"If Mei'er doesn't see you, maybe you've become an ice sculpture in the pit" Xu Xiao replied. Xu Xiao fixed the blanket covering Xiao Lang's body, "Xiao Lang, what is your relationship with Governor Qin?"


Xu Xiao looked at Xiao Lang intently, again asking the same question to Xiao Lang. "What is your relationship with Governor Qin? When you heard the news of Governor Qin's death, you immediately panicked."


Xiao Lang lowered his face, a look of sadness clearly visible on Xiao Lang's face. Xu Xiao saw that Xiao Lang was struck by silence, not urging him to answer.


"I won't force you to answer that question. If you want to leave, it will take at least ten days to connect a broken hand bone" Xu Xiao said.


Xiao Lang nodded, "Thank you, Master Xu. Looks like I'm troubling you for some time to come."


Xu Xiao smiled and nodded slowly.


***


A horse with two passengers split the snowy road at high speed. They were Di Min Jie who was taking Wang Tian Sin to Qian city because Wang Tian Sin needed a tabine and care.


Wang Tian Sin fell unconscious after complaining of pain in his chest made Di Ming Jie panic and brought Wang Tian Sin to Qian city. Three horsemen followed Di Min Jie to escort while the rest remained in the tent and guarded Long Tian's coffin.


As the night began to dissolve, Di Min Jie made it to Qian city and took Wang Tian Sin to the Yan healer's place for treatment. Di Min Jie used Wang Tian Sin's identity as Qin Huang's adopted son to ease access.


Physician Yan headed a medicine bureau named Quanyu, one of the medicine bureaus that had branches throughout the Yin empire and several in the Song empire. Tabin Yan never stayed in one place for long and continued to move throughout his treatment hall.


A young taboo brought Wang Tian Sin into a room, then asked Di Min Jie to come out of the room. Di Min Jie complied and walked out, waiting on the porch of the room with an anxious face.


Di Min Jie tried several times to peek, but was always undone. "Tabib asked to wait outside. As a man I have to obey him because I agree."


As Di Min Jie walked back and forth on the porch of the room, an old man wearing a dark brown robe came up to her. The old man's skin was yellow, his hair, eyebrows and beard were completely white. The old man graciously patted Di Min Jie on the shoulder and asked. "What's up, young man?"


Di Min Jie was shocked as someone patted her shoulder. The young man immediately turned his head and found a man he knew even though he had only met once before. Di Min Jie bowed with two hands linked together. "Greetings, Physician Yan."


"You're the young officer of Qin Guan's bodyguard?" asked Physician Yan.


Di Min Jie smiled gently and nodded. Physician Yan looked into the room, but the young man he had in mind was not in the room.


Di Min Jie realized that Physician Yan was looking for Qin Guan, instantly telling the truth. "Tabib Yan, Young Master Qin is fine. The one inside was his foster sister, Young Master Wang Tian Sin."


"He's the younger brother that Young Master Qin once told?" asked Physician Yan. Di Min Jie nodded.


Physician Yan walked into the room and intervened to check on Wang Tian Sin. At the curious Min Jie barged in, reneging on the sentence she had spoken herself just a moment ago.


The face of Physician Yan paled as he examined Wang Tian Sin's pulse made Di Min Jie anxious. "How is his condition, Physician Yan?"


Physician Yan let out a long sigh, shaking his head slowly made Di Min Jie even more panicked. "Not good."
