Ms. Doctor Divine

Chapter 531: Business to Lord Ling 1

Zhou Huaijin frowned deeply, feeling rather displeased. His father had the tendency of leaning towards his Fourth Brother, only because of the Phoenix Girl

He had already told his father just now that he could take the responsibility of dealing with the refugees, but if it were Fourth Brother…

Zhou Huaijin just did not believe that Zhou Huailing would get things right. So he stressed. “Father, I would very much like to deal with the refugees. It is people from my mansion that are looking after them at the moment, and all I need is just some imperial doctors.”

Seeing Zhou Huaijin insisting…

Zhou Huailing made up his mind to get this matter no matter what. So he stressed too. “Father, I would like to deal with this matter properly.”

Zhou Huaijin said nothing. Instead, he just looked at the King persistently.

Since he was paying attention to this matter, it meant that he did care about refugees. He did not believe that the King would entrust Fourth Brother to this matter just because he said something.

Zhou Huailing threw a proud look at Zhou Huaijin, then he turned to the King.

The King glanced about them two and then his sight landed upon Zhou Huailing, as he said seriously, “Lord Ling has been running errands in the capital during the past few years, and I think he has a better knowledge of what to do. I will entrust Lord Ling to deal with the matter of refugees.”

Zhou Huailing looked cheerful and smiled brightly.

He threw a provocative matter to Zhou Huaijin and then kneeled down in front of the King. “I will take it, thank you, Father!”

Zhou Huaijin had a terrible look on his face.

It was not that he wanted to stand out. It was just that Chaoyan and the others present already had an idea of how to cure them, and what mattered right now was to open the gate and let in some doctors. Also, he made the petition, but now did this errand end up being in his Fourth Brother’s hands.

“Father!” Zhou Huaijin insisted.

The King waved his hands. “Lord Huai, I won’t entrust you to do this, because you are barely available at the morning session and you have no experience of dealing with errands. The refugee matter is very important, and I am worried that you will panic when it comes to serious matters. That is why your Fourth Brother is taking it. Your Fourth Brother has already married the Phoenix Girl, who is a fortunate omen. I believe that the omen would give the refugees hope. It will be a harvest year soon. Also, Lady Chaoyan has already held her Adulthood Ceremony, so you should focus on how and when to get married. That is what matters for you now,” the King said.

Zhou Huailing felt a bit annoyed hearing what his father said. He had not paid any attention to “getting married”, but now he just remembered that he did not have any offspring. He did not care much about it earlier since no one was a threat to him. However, it seemed that his Eighth Brother was marrying a Princess Consort!

If the Eighth Brother got a child first, then the child would be the eldest.

He had been married for four years and had no children, so Zhou Huailing felt very worried. He was no longer as pleased as he was when he first got this errand. His expression sank.

Zhou Huaijin answered. “Yes.”

Then he said nothing. He knew clearly that even if he insisted on this errand, his father would not offer it to him. And he had never done any official errands before, so the officers in the court would not take his side.

However, what did Father mean by mentioning the Phoenix Girl?
