Day 02: “Her Highness Zhao Baiguang.”

The first thing we noticed when we entered the room was the smell of incense. Liao Yan liked the smell but I don't. I couldn't ever get used to the smell of incense, it makes my nostril felt itchy and bothered.

"Your Highness, I have brought the physician here.", said the woman as she knelt down beside a luxurious wooden bed with a yellow curtain. I used to check a patient's pulse back when I worked part-time as my grandpa's helper, but this is the first time I felt a tremor in my whole body for being nervous. Without further ado, the woman immediately opened the curtain and I screamed internally when I saw the mistress of this woman. It turned out to be a sleeping beauty, no, even Aurora can't match the current sleeping beauty in front of me.

"Jinyun, quick examine the woman.",

Liao Yan kindly reminded me of my job here which is I'm really grateful for. I was spacing out too much until the woman beside me began to doubt my skills once more. I calmed myself down by avoiding looking at the mistress's face and began to examine her pulse. Just like what the woman said, the mistress is indeed pregnant, probably around 3 months.

"The miss had a severe fever and exhaustion. I could prescribe a medicine for her to lessen the fever and her fatigue. However, I don't know where to get the materials…",

"Just tell me and I will find it.",

"The necessary materials are honeysuckle and ginseng. That should do it.",

The woman just nodded her head once and race out of the room. Five minutes later, she came back with the ingredients I told her, she even brought some extra ingredients and medicinal tools for me to use. I dare to bet my life this woman knew martial arts which left me the impression on not to fail on whatever she told me to do.

"I have brought the necessary materials and some tools for you to pestle the materials.",

"Thank you, I'll get to work right away.",

I began to crush the honeysuckle with the pestle and began to create the medicine. Liao Yan who was watching suddenly helped with one or two parts like an assistant. I don't really know what moves him to help me, however, it comes in handy and we finished the medicine faster. Liao Yan took the bowl of medicine and gave it to the woman with a smile, "We have finished, may the lady gave it to the mistress.", The woman furrowed her eyebrow and took the medicine, I don't know what makes her showing an expression like that, but I guess it has anything to do with our speech.

While the woman was busy giving the medicine to her mistress, I quickly took Liao Yan to the corner. Liao Yan had a change of expression and spoke with a bit of embarrassment, "I don't know you're into this kind of thing.", the way he spoke left me a sense of disrelish for a moment until I realized about our position. I inadvertently looked at the woman behind us, the princess who was sleeping now is wide awake, the two women were gasping at us.

"Um, I can explain.",

The woman on the bed pinched her forehead and said in distress, "Xiang'er, just… who are these people you brought in?",

"This subordinate apologize for not introducing these two… men.",

I immediately straightened my back and pulled Liao Yan next to me, the two of us take a bow and apologize for being rude. We began to introduce ourselves and said that we're traveling physicians from another continent. The woman on the bed who was angry now suddenly happy and nodded her head, "I thanked the two gentlemen for saving my life. My name is Zhao Baiguang and here is my lady-in-wait, Li Xiang. We're both are… a traveler too, but sometimes it's inconvenient for two women to travel alone. If the two gentlemen didn't mind, would you like to join us?",

Li Xiang had a change of expression and was about to say something, but I immediately answered, "I was pulling my friend here to discuss speaking politely to the lady, because I noticed that the lady was offended by my friend who speaks informally.",

Li Xiang was surprised and then she lowered her head, "This subordinate agreed, it will be safer if there are few helpers with us.",

Now this is the kind of outcome I didn't expect at all. First, you DON'T ask a complete stranger to travel with you. Second, you DON'T trust strangers easily. Lastly, we're both are GUYS, did the people in the past are this single-minded? It seems like they had no guards at all towards us, very different from when Liao Yan and I traveling to Las Vegas. Trying our luck to fish some blonde chicks there which ended up coming home empty-handed. However, despite all my complaints this is actually a big chance for us to live an easy life until we find a way to go home. Also, traveling with two beauties would be a great chance for a single guy like us. Alas, the other one is already married.

"How about the two gentlemen? Would you like to work with us? We will pay you handsomely.",

I looked at Liao Yan and so did he, we both are concerned about the same thing, and that is, how can we come back here to find a way back home?

"We're actually very humbled to be hired by the madam, but we're concerned about going back home.", Liao Yan spoke, once again Li Xiang furrowed her eyebrows and wanted to say something but was stopped by Zhao Baiguang.

"By any chance, did the two gentlemen didn't know the manners in this country?", Zhao Baiguang smiled, it was just a simple smile but it almost sends my heart to the hospital.

I quickly bowed to Zhao Baiguang, "This subject apologize for Liao Yan's unawareness of manners, this subject made sure to gave him the lesson he needs. May Your Highness forgive him for his mistake.",

Zhao Baiguang tilted her head and looked at me with a menacing stare, "Your Highness? You knew my true identity?",

Oh, crap… I forgot they were trying to cover their true identity here. Now, either she gets us killed or hire as full-time slaves. Li Xiang seemed to realized something and quickly kneeled beside us.

"It was this subordinate's fault for revealing our identity to these two men. May Her Highness punish this subordinate heavily.",

Seeing Li Xiang kneeled, Liao Yan and I hurriedly kneeled and beg for Zhao Baiguang's forgiveness. It seems like we really need to pay attention to what we are about to say, or else, we might lose our lives before we even found the way to go back.

"Are you two really just a traveler?", Zhao Baiguang said as she approached me, "Raise your head and tell me who you really are.",

I don't know what happened, but the moment I raised my head I was greeted by her beautiful Jet eyes that makes anyone who seen it will succumb to whatever she asked. It was as if I'm being hypnotized, or am I?

"My name is Xun Jinyun and this is my friend Liao Yan. We actually come from a later generation on two thousand seventeen.",

Liao Yan was shocked and poked my arm with his elbow, "Hey, Jinyun! What are you doing? They are not going to believe us if you tell the truth." he whispered,

"It's better than lying. I mean, they have the right to know about us… or perhaps knew a way to go back home.",

"Bah, I don't care anymore. If we're going to get killed, I'm going to leave you behind.",

"Coward.",

"Stupid.",

"Ahem!", Zhao Baiguang touched my chin and moved her face closer to mine, I could hear my own heart beating fast and my face somewhat felt hot.

"You're still talking to me. Now, continue with your story.",

"Y-yes, my lady.",

Liao Yan threw a resigned sigh and tilted his head to the other way. In the meantime, I tried to explain carefully about me and Liao Yan, especially the way where we were transmigrated. I didn't expect Zhao Baiguang and Li Xiang to believe it, but when I saw them listened with gusto, I realized these girls are easy to believe in a stranger.

"It is just like Qi Mo's case.", Zhao Baiguang said.

"Indeed, it is just like Qi Mo.", Li Xiang nodded as well.

Liao Yan who was silent finally spoke, "Is there another time traveler besides us?",

"Yes, her name was Qi Mo. She claimed to be on later generation as well, was it two thousand twelve?", Zhao Baiguang tilted her head to Li Xiang. Li Xiang nodded and said, "Yes, it was two thousand twelve, she claimed to be a disciple of engineering? I don't quite understand what she means, but she's very smart and could create weird tools for our kingdom.",

It seems like we're not the first one to transmigrate into this timeline. Based on Li Xiang and Zhao Baiguang's description of this Qi Mo girl. It seems like she's an engineering major, which is quite good for us. Perhaps she could find a way back to our timeline, finally, we didn't regret anything this time.

"My offer is still valid here…", Zhao Baiguang threw a sly smile and Li Xiang also smiled at us.

It seems like we won't be able to get away easily from these two.
