Hearing this, Wei Jiayi was amused. He just gave the blood replenishing pill to Minister Gao two days ago.
Everyone who knew of the incident regarding the only daughter of the Left Minister assumed that she would not be able to even stand up in the next month.
So, who would have thought that just two days later, the same young miss who was supposed to be bed ridden was now in front of him causing commotion in the entire Shizi Empire?
The implications of the recent incident that involved the murder of crows, would not only affect the Medical Pavilion but might also alarm the Royal Family.
An expert who could do this was not ordinary.
Glancing at Feng Ji, he knew that this little brown sparrow was the only one who could command all the spirit bird species in the entire kingdom.
He just did not know why it seemed different from before. Wanting to know something but the fact that he could not yet, made him annoyed, but also brought hope for something that might never happen.
'Interesting. Truly interesting.' Wei Jiayi thought with amusement
It'd been a while since he last experienced different emotions since he set foot in the mortal domain.
In the meantime, he would continue to watch and investigate.
He nodded, "Very well. I will prepare the purple rose herb in the next two days." Wei Jiayi confirmed.
"Alright. There's your crow." Gao Lan Mei pointed out the window.
A crow standing on the edge of it. Wei Jiayi approached the crow, "Meme, you're back!" He exclaimed.
Gao Lan Mei lips twitched, she was not sure if she wanted to grin or scowl. The name was not really fitting for a crow.
"You should not keep it in a cage." She commented instead.
He snorted, "I only place Meme in a cage when we are outside." Wei Jia Yi felt insulted. He was, of course, aware that birds were supposed to be free. That was the reason why his palace was near the forest.
Gao Lan Mei just shrugged her shoulders. It's part of the deal. He did not seem to abuse his pet so she would just mind her own business.
After collecting the agreed upon herbs as well as the five hundred thousand gold, Gao Lan Mei headed out of the Medical Pavilion.
Outside, she saw the mute old beggar and Gao Chu together waiting for her. The worry was clearly seen in their eyes.
"Miss you're back!" Gao Chu was very happy to see her unscattered. She was also afraid that something bad would happen to her.
Gao Lan Mei passed the herbs to Gao Chu to carry. Then she pulled out the five hundred thousand worth of bank notes to the old mute beggar. "Here." She said emotionless.
The old mute beggar was surprised. 'The bank notes were for him? Really?' Since his face clearly expressed his question, Gao Lan Mei nodded.
He almost cried from happiness, but he did not accept the notes instead, he kneeled in front of Gao Lan Mei and started to kowtow to show his gratitude.
After doing so, he did not stand up but just looked at her like he was trying to tell her something.
"Miss, I think he wants to follow us." Gao Chu said as she watched with delight.
Hearing this, the old mute beggar nodded vigorously to affirm what Gao Chu had said.
Gao Lan Mei stared at the mute old beggar, who became nervous because of the possible rejection. "Then follow us."
