Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 254
Chapter 254 Hongniang Has a Lot of Virtue
The person outside the car was none other than Sizhou Governor Cha Jinzhi.
When Bai Jun Zhuo saw Yin Xun’s appearance, he also opened the curtain and looked outside. When he saw Cha Jinzhi, he turned around and asked Yin Xun, “Zisu, do you remember who he is?”
“Of course I remember,” Yin Xun replied, “he chased after you relentlessly in Luoyang.”
Bai Junzhuo smiled and said, “He did that because he misunderstood me. Zishu, do you still remember the time when you were controlled by Princess Gu Yu? Cha Jinzhi went to the palace to report to the Ninth Prince’s Mansion to look for me. But when you saw him, you didn’t recognize him.”
Yin Xun thought for a moment and shook his head, “That memory is still very blurry.”
Bai Junzhuo said to him, “Since I didn’t think about it, then don’t think about it. I feel that the Bai Clan’s scroll is really powerful, but I can’t understand it all. I can’t understand it well. So I came back this time and asked Grandma how much she knows about it. Maybe it will come in handy in the future.”
Yin Xun nodded and turned to look outside. “This Cha Jinzhi seems to be heading towards the Bai Manor as well.”
“Is that so?” Bai Junzhuo didn’t care too much, “Perhaps it was just a passing way.”
Not long after, they got out of the carriage and saw that Cha Jinzhi’s horse had also stopped at the entrance. Bai Junzhuo glanced at Yin Xun and didn’t expect him to really come to the Bai Mansion.
The guards at the entrance of the White Mansion hadn’t changed yet. Seeing Yin Xun and Bai Junzhuo, one of them hurriedly went in to inform the butler. The other greeted him and said, “Ninth Prince, Ninth Princess.”
Bai Junzhuo waved his hand and said, “There’s no need to be too polite. The two of us just came back to take a look. You can go down.”
The man returned to his seat and stood up. Nurse He also came out to greet him and bowed, “This old servant greets the Ninth Prince and Ninth Princess.”
Bai Junzhuo hurriedly reached out to help her up and asked with a smile, “Nurse He doesn’t need to be so lucky. Is Grandma in good health?”
“Ninth Princess, thank you for your concern. Old Lady’s body is still very strong.” Nurse He replied to her and said, “Your Highness, Princess, please enter the manor with this old servant.”
Bai Junzhuo nodded and went in with her, Yin Xun and Shen Qing following behind.
Inside, Nanny He ordered Yin Xun to bring him to the guest room first, and then he brought Bai Junzhuo directly to Madam Zou’s courtyard.
Bai Junzhuo sized up the surroundings and saw that the Bai Clan had not changed in the past year.
“By the way, Nurse He, I saw Lord Cha’s horse stop at the door just now. Has he also come?” Bai Junzhuo suddenly thought of Cha Jinzhi and asked.
Nurse He nodded, “Lord Cha is here to discuss his marriage with Second Miss with Old Lady.”
“What? Lord Cha wants to marry Second Sister?” Bai Jun was shocked for a moment, and then he said, “These two are truly a match made in heaven.”
Nurse He nodded, “It’s a coincidence. If there’s a chance, the princess might as well ask the second young miss.”
Bai Junzhuo said, “Yes.”
After arriving at Mrs. Zou’s room, Bai Junzhuo saw Mrs. Zou talking to Cha Jinzhi. He slightly nodded and went to Mrs. Zou’s side to shout, “Grandma.”
Mrs. Zou smiled and immediately pulled Bai Junzhuo and said, “Zhuo’er, why are you back? I didn’t send anyone to inform you. Grandma can call someone to prepare beforehand.”
Bai Junzhuo shook his head and said, “We are following His Majesty to the southern border. We are passing through Luoyang and will come by to take a look. We will leave tomorrow. There is no need for Grandma to prepare anything.”
“You’re leaving tomorrow?” Mrs. Zou said somewhat dejectedly, “If you can stay for a few more days, you can drink the wedding wine of your second sister and Lord Cha.”
Bai Junzhuo turned to look at Cha Jinzhi and smiled at Madam Zou, “Grandma has already fallen in love with Lord Cha. As expected, Lord Cha became Grandma’s grandson-in-law in the end.”
Madam Zou nodded emotionally, “Yeah, I didn’t expect that it would be our Bai Clan’s people, and in the end, our Bai Clan’s people.”
Bai Junzhuo smiled and said, “Look at what Grandma said. It’s like Lord Cha is married to our Bai Clan.”
“You’re married to the palace. Xu’er has also gone to Chang’an. I only have Lan’er’s granddaughter by my side. Of course, this grandson-in-law has to take care of me from time to time. Don’t you think so, Lord Cha?” Madam Zou looked at Cha Jinzhi.
Cha Jinzhi smiled appropriately and nodded, “Naturally.”
Looking at his expression, Bai Jun finally let out a sigh of relief. He smiled and said to the two, “Grandma, you should discuss the marriage between him and Second Sister with Lord Cha first. When you’re done, I’ll come over to chat with Grandma.”
Madam Zou nodded and Bai Junzhuo retreated.
She didn’t leave either and waited outside under the pavilion. Half an hour later, Cha Jinzhi walked out. Seeing that Bai Junzhuo was still there, he went over and said, “Is the Ninth Princess waiting for me?”
Bai Junzhuo turned around to look at him and nodded, “Fate is truly amazing. I didn’t expect Lord Cha to actually get to know my second sister.”
Cha Jinzhi smiled embarrassedly and replied, “Speaking of which, it’s all thanks to the Ninth Princess.”
“Oh?” Bai Junzhuo was puzzled, “What did I do?”
“After I went to Chang’an to report on my work, I was kidnapped by bandits on my way back. I was imprisoned at the top of the mountain for a long time. Afterwards, the Ninth Princess rescued Jun Lan and sent someone to send her back to Luoyang. She saved me when she passed by the top of the mountain.” The more Cha Jinzhi spoke, the more embarrassed he felt. He could only sigh and say, “In short, it was because the Ninth Princess saved Jun Lan that Jun Lan had the chance to save me.”
Bai Junzhuo couldn’t help but laugh. It wasn’t just them, Mo Ying and Huang Li were also arranged by themselves. His matchmaker skills were simply max.
“Previously, because of the misunderstanding between the Ninth Princess and me … I did a series of stupid things. I hope that the Ninth Princess will not blame me.” Cha Jinzhi sincerely apologized.
Bai Junzhuo waved his hand generously and said, “It’s fine. Everything is over, so don’t mention it anymore. However, from what you said about your story just now, I really pinched my sweat for Lord Cha. Fortunately, you and Second Sister came back unscathed.”
After Cha Jinzhi heard this, he thought for a moment and replied, “I saw that those people are very disciplined. Perhaps they are not ordinary bandits, but not killing me. Perhaps it has something to do with my background.”
“Your background?” Bai Junzhuo pondered for a moment and asked curiously, “I heard that Lord Cha has accompanied the Fourth Prince to school before. Normally, those accompanying the Prince are descendants of noble families. But why can’t I remember that there is an official surnamed Cha in the court? Lord Cha’s father is not an official in the court?”
Cha Jinzhi replied, “I don’t know who my biological father is. I was raised by Lord Changshi, Liu Hong. When I was young, I lived in Xuchang. After the Imperial Examination, I came to Luoyang to be an official.”
“Since your adoptive father’s surname is Liu, why do you call him that?”
“That’s not my original name. It was given to me by the gentleman who taught me and the Fourth Prince.”
Bai Junzhuo nodded.
“When I was kidnapped by those people, I seemed to have heard them say that I was their master’s biological son. I really wanted to ask who their master was,” Cha Jinzhi said with a helpless smile. “Then, a series of things happened, and this matter was over. I still didn’t have the chance to know who my father was.”
Looking at his appearance, Bai Junzhuo asked, “Lord Cha, do you really want to know?”
Cha Jinzhi nodded and said, “Naturally.”
Bai Junzhuo pondered for a moment and asked him, “What birthmark do you have on you? Since those robbers can recognize you, you must have the characteristics they know.”
Cha Jinzhi thought for a moment and shook his head, “It seems that there is nothing too obvious.”
“What about the token?” Bai Junzhuo asked again, “Did you bring any tokens with you when you were taken in and raised? Are you like a jade pendant or something?”
Cha Jinzhi thought about it carefully and nodded, “It seems like there is a box that contains the things left behind by my biological parents.”
Bai Junzhuo smiled and said, “If Master Cha trusts me, you can show me that box. I will pay attention to Master Cha in the future. If you have any clues, you can also inform Master Cha.”
Cha Jinzhi thought that his biological parents might have moved to Chang’an with His Majesty, and Bai Junzhuo was also in Chang’an now. She might really be able to find clues for him. However, he was a little embarrassed and said to her, “This is my personal matter. How can I trouble the Ninth Princess?”
Bai Junzhuo smiled and said, “In the future, Lord Cha will be my brother-in-law. There is nothing for the family to do but to bother. Moreover, this is only something that they usually pay attention to casually. It won’t take much effort.”
Cha Jinzhi thought for a moment and nodded, “Alright, I’ll send someone to bring that box over later.”
Bai Junzhuo nodded and casually chatted with Cha Jinzhi for a while before the two left.
Actually, although Bai Junzhuo said those words, he actually wanted Yin Xun to help him find them. Yin Xun had a wide network of people, and with his help, he should be able to find Cha Jinzhi’s biological parents very quickly.
She wanted to help Cha Jinzhi because she wanted to give Cha Jinzhi and Bai Junlan a wedding present. If the two of them were to reach perfection, it would be her own merit.
After making some plans, Bai Junzhuo went in to talk to Madam Zou.
Madam Zou pulled her over and nodded, “Zhuo’er is becoming more and more beautiful. She has a bit more charm than before. It seems that life in Chang’an isn’t too difficult for you.”
Bai Junzhuo smiled and nodded, “Zhuo’er is also fortunate. She survived a series of frenzy in Chang’an City and even gave birth to a child.”
“Oh? Zhuo’er even gave birth to a child?” Madam Zou looked at her in surprise and said, “I really can’t tell at all. The baby should have been born a few days ago, right?”
Bai Junzhuo shook his head, “The baby is born prematurely, but its health is not inferior to a full-term baby. I am also in good health, so I can get out of bed so early.”
“Good, good.” Madam Zou said, “When you were first born, your father once asked someone to tell your fate. He said that you are a blessed person. Although you are often in danger, you can always survive. Grandma has nothing else to ask for. You and your highness are fine, and your family is fine as long as you and your highness are fine.”
Bai Junzhuo smiled and said, “Zhuo’er knows that it will be fine.”
“You’re going to war with His Majesty next, aren’t you?” Madam Zou held Bai Junzhuo’s hand tightly and said, “The battlefield is dangerous. Don’t try to be brave. Safety is the most important thing in a woman’s home.”
Bai Junzhuo nodded and sat down under her and looked up at her, “Speaking of which, Zhuo’er remembered the Bai Clan Scroll. Its abilities are extraordinary, and it might be able to be of great use on the battlefield. Grandma, what do you know about the Bai Clan Scroll?”
