Chapter 115 is practically asking for a beating.
Someone lit a firework, which exploded with a "bang" in the sky behind Jun Ce.
The fireworks were dazzling and breathtaking.
The falling starlight illuminated his black robes, and his sculpted face flickered in and out of light, making it difficult to discern his expression.
Zhai Rong looked straight at him and saw that the spark in his eyes was even more intense than fireworks.
The bustling street vendors and noisy voices were drawn out and seemed long and distant.
The two of them gazed at each other silently.
It was as if they were the only ones left in the world.
"Rong'er, when will I be able to come to your side?" Jun Ce murmured absentmindedly, looking at the girl's slender figure.
*
Zhai Rong returned to the Minister's residence.
They combined the Gelsemium elegans and the tears of the mermaids.
The shimmering beads were instantly given another layer of black luster.
She put the mermaid's tears into her cloth bag.
Just then, Hua Ying brought Zhai Muling to her courtyard.
"Sister, were you frightened?" Zhai Rongyu quickly stepped forward, took Zhai Muling's hand, and looked her up and down.
[This is the first time my sister, a lady of such refined upbringing, has ever tried flying through the air.]
I wonder if it scared you.
Zhai Muling shook her head and took her hand. "Rong'er, I'm fine."
She actually found it rather novel.
"The Crown Prince sent a team of men to monitor the Minister's residence," Hua Ying said.
There are quite a few people.
She went to great lengths to evade their notice.
Zhai Rongyu gave a thumbs up, making no attempt to hide her praise: "Sister Huaying, do you know? There are two kinds of amazing people in this world."
"One type is like you."
"The other type is like you!"
Zhai Muling covered her face with her handkerchief and laughed.
Rong'er's mouth is truly sweeter than honey.
Hua Ying straightened up somewhat awkwardly, coughed lightly, and said, "I've delivered the person, so I'll be leaving now."
After saying that, he lightly touched the ground with his toes and leaped onto the roof.
It quickly blended into the night.
"Sister," Zhai Rongyu said, putting away her joke and turning around to look at Zhai Muling with a serious expression. "I want to send you to Medicine King Valley."
That pervert Jun Yinghuai might do something else entirely.
[Staying in the manor as an elder sister is ultimately not a good solution.]
[Medicine King Valley is little known, and with my senior brother there, it's definitely much safer than this Minister's residence.]
"Medicine King Valley?" Zhai Muling pursed her lips slightly.
Is this the place Rong'er went to last time?
A hint of anticipation flickered in her eyes.
"I've heard that Medicine King Valley has many skilled healers..."
Seeing that she was still concerned about her career, Zhai Rongyu felt much relieved and said with a smile, "The Valley Master of Medicine King Valley, Xue Qingchuan, has excellent medical skills."
"If you have any questions, you can ask him for help."
Zhai Muling's heart began to pound.
If she could stay there for a while, her medical skills might advance to a whole new level!
“Okay, I’ll go!” she replied excitedly.
Zhai Rongyu nodded.
She put an invisibility talisman on Zhai Muling and then swaggered away from the Minister's residence with her.
Valley of the King of Medicine.
Xue Qingchuan sensed someone entering the valley and came out to see Zhai Rongyu, which surprised him.
"Miss Zhai, what brings you here?"
When Zhai Rongyu left, he placed her palm print on the entrance cave, allowing her to freely enter and exit Medicine King Valley.
I never expected her to come back so soon.
Zhai Rongyu smiled and said, "Valley Master Xue, there's something I'd like to ask for your help with."
Xue Qingchuan could not obtain what he desired.
“Miss Zhai has done me a great favor. Please feel free to ask me anything.”
Zhai Rong gently pushed Zhai Muling toward him.
"I wonder if it would be convenient for Valley Master Xue to let my sister stay in Medicine King Valley for a while?"
"Let her learn medicine from you and the elders."
Xue Qingchuan nodded in agreement.
"Such a small matter is naturally not a problem."
"Greetings, Valley Master Xue." Zhai Muling curtsied to him. "I apologize for disturbing you."
She looked up and met Xue Qingchuan's gaze.
Xue Qingchuan then got a clear look at her face.
Her face was as beautiful as a lotus flower, her figure graceful and elegant, and every smile and frown was polite and proper, clearly indicating that she was a lady from a distinguished family.
Zhai Muling was secretly alarmed.
There is such a handsome man in the world.
He still has a full head of silver hair.
Seeing her staring at him, Xue Qingchuan smiled gently, "Please come with me, young lady."
Zhai Rongyu watched their departing figures with a mocking, gossipy expression on her face.
[Tsk, these two seem kind of a good match, don't they?]
Zhai Muling stumbled and almost fell.
Xue Qingchuan reacted quickly and caught her arm. "Be careful, young lady."
"Thank you."
Zhai Muling withdrew her hand and smiled somewhat embarrassedly.
He let out a soft sigh and quickly walked into the courtyard.
This is the first time I've seen my sister walk so fast.
[I never imagined she, like her second brother, had such a strong desire to learn.]
Zhai Rong looked up at the starry sky above Medicine King Valley.
Sighed.
[I'm the only one in my family who wants to give up, but why am I always the busiest one?]
Is this scientifically sound?
Is this what they call being born with a life of toil?
[So tired... Time to open!]
She clenched her fists.
I'm planning to have a big meal at the best restaurant in Beijing tomorrow!
Let's go have some wine and women, listen to music, and watch a play!
Oh dear, this is what life is all about!
She nodded in satisfaction and left Medicine King Valley with eager anticipation.
……
Prince's Mansion.
Jun Yinghuai swept his hand, knocking all the books and inkstones off the table to the floor, and angrily said:
"How could such a big person just vanish into thin air?!"
"Go find some more for me!!"
The guards in the room fell silent, trembling with fear.
One of them boldly said, "Your Highness, we've been watching outside the Minister's residence for days, and we haven't even seen a fly."
"Could it be that Miss Zhai didn't return to the Minister's residence?"
"If you can't see it, that's because you're incompetent!" Jun Yinghuai's sinister voice was filled with boundless rage.
Zhai Rong has many tricks up her sleeve; she's probably hiding Mu Ling somewhere.
He lowered his head, lost in thought, when a servant came to report:
"Your Highness, there is a Taoist priest outside the gate requesting an audience!"
"A Taoist priest?" Jun Yinghuai frowned.
He remembered that Zhai Rongyu was a Taoist cultivator, and a surge of anger welled up inside him. He gritted his teeth and said, "Give him a good beating and then throw him out!"
What kind of charlatan dares to cause trouble here!
They're practically asking for a beating!
The servant continued to report, somewhat timidly.
“Your Highness… that man said that if you only need to say one word to him, you will definitely see him.”
"What did you say?" Jun Yinghuai's eyes were cold.
"He said that he, like you, hated Miss Zhai to the core..."
Jun Yinghuaiyinzhi's gaze suddenly narrowed, his long, narrow eyes filled with inquiry.
"What does that Taoist priest you're talking about look like?"
Have you seen it before?
The servant shook his head. "Never seen it before."
"From my observation, he was just dressed as an ordinary Taoist priest, nothing special."
"Oh! That's right!" he added, as if remembering something, "That Taoist priest only had four fingers on his right hand!"
