The protagonist of this crossover film and television series is disrupting the plot again.

Chapter 240 Young Man on a White Horse Drunk in the Spring Breeze 14

Unfortunately, Xiao Ruofeng arrived too late.

If he had noticed the anomaly and probed directly on the day Xiao Ruojin transmigrated, he might have discovered some clues.

Now, several days have passed, and Xiao Ruojin has already completely digested the original owner's memories and perfectly integrated into this new identity.

Xiao Ruojin knew all of the original owner's subtle habits like the back of her hand, and her handwriting was exactly the same as the original owner's. She even had complete control over the original owner's social connections and other resources.

Judging from his outward appearance alone, Xiao Ruofeng would have no way of noticing any problem.

As for the changes in Xiao Ruojin's behavior...

Each time he transmigrated, it was during a major turning point for the original owner. Under such drastic changes, it's reasonable for people's behavior to change somewhat.

In addition, he would always subtly hint to those around him that the reason he acted differently now than before was because he had been hiding his true abilities under certain circumstances in the past, in order to rationalize the differences between himself and the original owner.

With this double protection, and the fact that he was only a soul transmigrating while his body remained the original owner's, even if some people had doubts, those doubts would gradually disappear.

Xiao Ruofeng and Xiao Ruojin talked for most of the day but failed to find any flaws, which made Xiao Ruofeng feel a little more at ease, but he still couldn't help feeling uneasy deep down.

"Little brother, how are your injuries? Are they any better?" Xiao Ruojin poured a cup of hot tea and asked with concern.

Xiao Ruofen was lost in his own thoughts and didn't react for a moment.

"Brother? Ruofeng?" Xiao Ruojin called out twice more when he didn't answer. He acted very naturally and didn't deliberately make any flattering gestures because of Xiao Ruofeng's probing.

"...Ah! Is my brother calling me?" Xiao Ruofeng suddenly came to his senses.

"Why are you so distracted today?" Xiao Ruojin put down her teacup and looked at him, saying, "I just asked you how your injuries are? Are they any better?"

Xiao Ruofeng gently placed his hand on his chest, habitually shook his head, then remembered something and looked at Xiao Ruojin, saying, "Much better, but my chest still hurts a little."

"Hmm? Did you not take the medicine I sent you on time? Why does your chest still hurt?" As she spoke, Xiao Ruojin got up and moved to sit next to Xiao Ruofeng, taking his pulse. "In my opinion, you should stay here with me. That way, we brothers can look after each other. Especially now that you're injured, living alone outside with few people to take care of you, having to worry about everything yourself, how can you concentrate on recovering?"

Xiao Ruojin's rambling manner resembled that of a caring older brother.

Even though Xiao Ruofeng still had some doubts in his heart, he couldn't help but feel a sense of warmth at this moment.

"Brother, I..."

"Don't speak yet, I'm taking your pulse!" Xiao Ruojin interrupted him.

So Xiao Ruofeng fell silent, lowered his eyes to look at the hand pressing on his wrist, and silently felt the warmth coming from that hand.

After a moment, Xiao Ruojin withdrew her hand and decisively said, "Let's call a royal physician over!"

"Huh?" Xiao Ruofeng was taken aback.

"My medical skills are just theoretical. Although I can see that your injuries haven't healed, I can't see anything else," Xiao Ruojin explained.

In fact, through the pulse diagnosis he had just made, he already knew Xiao Ruofeng's injuries very well, but he could not show it.

Although King Jingyu had some medical knowledge, he had only read a few medical books. He could barely diagnose Xiao Ruofeng's basic injuries, but he was unable to know the deeper aspects of the illness.

Therefore, Xiao Ruojin cannot display his profound medical skills now, even if he understands them in his heart, he must pretend not to understand.

Sure enough, Xiao Ruofeng breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

Medicine is unlike other skills; it cannot be mastered simply by reading a few medical books.

As a prince, Xiao Ruojin could not openly learn these things that the royal family regarded as "heretical practices." At most, he would read a few medical books in his spare time, learn some health preservation methods, and understand some medical principles.

To say that he could actually cure diseases and prescribe medicine is completely impossible.

If Xiao Ruojin truly possesses exceptional medical skills, then that would be truly strange.

Xiao Ruofeng stopped Xiao Ruojin from summoning the imperial physician: "Brother, once the imperial physician is summoned to treat me, Father will soon find out about my injury. If Father becomes suspicious and investigates, what happened that day will no longer be able to be kept secret."

“You’re so badly injured, you can’t just bear it,” Xiao Ruojin said, frowning and disapproving.

"It's alright, I have some excellent healing medicine. After a few more days of rest, you'll be fine."

Xiao Ruojin could only shake her head helplessly: "I really can't do anything with you."

Xiao Ruofeng felt increasingly confident. When he saw the lunch, a glint flashed in his eyes, and he quickly changed the subject: "Brother, there are some new dishes at the restaurants in the city. I specially booked a table for you to try."

"Oh? Is that so?" Xiao Ruojin thought to himself: The main event is here. He secretly perked up, but his expression softened.

Xiao Ruofeng is quite shrewd and pays close attention to his elder brother. Sooner or later, he would discover the differences between Xiao Ruojin and the original owner of the body. Xiao Ruojin had already foreseen this day.

However, he is now Xiao Ruojin, and no one can see through his disguise. There is no need to deliberately hide it; he can simply face it openly.

Besides, if Xiao Ruofeng is truly exceptionally capable and can see her own problems, Xiao Ruojin should thank him.

Therefore, Xiao Ruojin remained completely calm in the face of Xiao Ruofeng's probing.

Soon the banquet was ready. Xiao Ruofeng dismissed the servants around him, personally poured a cup of wine for Xiao Ruojin, and said with a smile, "My junior brother's wine is much better than this. It's just a pity that he is not in Tianqi City now, so we can't drink his wine now."

Xiao Ruojin smiled upon hearing this and reached out to press down on Xiao Ruofeng's hand holding the wine pot: "Your injuries haven't healed yet, so let's not drink today. Once your injuries are healed, your brother will drink with you."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ruofeng smiled and put down the wine pot. The two brothers ate and chatted.

During this time, Xiao Ruofeng asked Xiao Ruojin, seemingly casually, why she had been keeping a low profile these past two days and hadn't gone out to make friends with court officials.

Xiao Ruojin shook her head, her smile fading, and sighed, "The importance of the Shadow Sect to the Northern Li royal family is self-evident. Now that I have married the Shadow Sect Master's only daughter as my concubine, I must be more restrained in my actions to avoid the jealousy of the other princes and the Emperor's apprehension."

Xiao Ruofeng agreed with these words and nodded repeatedly.

Those imperial brothers are indeed not to be underestimated. No matter how much the emperor favors one of them, the others are all envious and resort to all sorts of tricks. The fact that the elder brother is keeping a low profile is very wise.
