Chapter 182


Interrupted by this sudden fire, in the following days, although Xia Yuqing began to follow the Eldest Princess around as a small follower every day, she never encountered the crisis of that night again. This made Xia Yuqing relax.


Of course, in the end she also paid the price for her recklessness. Speaking of the price paid for this, Xia Yuqing felt that the only word that could describe it was tragic.


Xia Yuqing clearly remembered that night after the calamity, a certain animal had overwhelmed her on the bed without saying a word. He gave her no chance to speak. Even her angry cursing was all regarded as… entertainment.


Xia Yuqing vaguely remembered she had shouted at Feng Tingye in anger that night: “Don’t you have a new love? Why did you come here to bother me?”


But, the beast didn’t have any intentions to reflect at all. On the contrary, after a moment of stunned silence, he did the most hateful thing ever by responding to Xia Yuqing with a: “Ai Fei, you look really cute when you are jealous.”


“……” This sister is cute? You are cute, your whole family is cute! Um… well, in his family, it’s just her.


Until the end, Xia Yuqing still couldn’t ask why Feng Tingye kept staring at the young man that night.


However, one of Xia Yuqing’s great advantages and disadvantages is that she is typically simple-minded and forgets many things once they pa.s.s. So after being bullied all night, she just threw the matter to the back of her head.


Of course, the fact that there were more recent events that were happening was also an important reason why Xia Yuqing was overwhelmed and had no time to take care of this matter. On one hand, Xia Yuqing was frightened by the Eldest Princess. On the other hand, the number of times someone ran over to the princess mansion had also increased significantly.


“I say, Second Brother, do you fancy some doll in your Fourth Sister’s mansion?” Xia Yuqing asked eccentrically, looking at Yun Zhongyue dangling above her head.


In recent days, the princess seemed to be busy with something important, so she had no time to take care of Xia Yuqing, otherwise Xia Yuqing would not have the opportunity to leisurely chat with Yun Zhongyue.


“If I say that I was here to take a scenic tour, would you believe me Junior Sister?”


“… taking a scenic tour in a large scorched ruin?” Second Brother, are you teasing me? Xia Yuqing glanced at Yun Zhongyue with contempt.


Yun Zhongyue flipped down from the roof. He smiled: “Really want to know?”


“Huh?” Xia Yuqing heard his playful voice and the dull hair on her head stood up. She looked at Yun Zhongyue with curiosity.


The smile on Yun Zhongyue’s face deepened a lot, deliberately teasing Xia Yuqing’s appet.i.te for gossip: “It’s not impossible to tell you, but…”


“What?”


“Didn’t Junior Sister’s husband say?” Yun Zhongyue squinted slightly. His eyes were filled with gloating malice.


“…” The Ultra Seme Lord also knows? Xia Yuqing was startled. She grabbed Yun Zhongyue’s clothes and whispered in a low voice, “Say, what are you planning behind my back?”


“…” Yun Zhongyue looked at Xia Yuqing who seemed angry, but in fact had two s.h.i.+ning eyes with an implied expression of excitement. The corners of his mouth couldn’t help but twitch, “Little Junior Sister, did you think of something you shouldn’t think of again?”


“Something I shouldn’t think about? Second Brother, I haven’t said anything yet. Is your nervousness a sign of a guilty conscience?”


“…Junior Sister, I finally know why you are so stupid.”


“Why?” Xia Yuqing didn’t react for a moment, her face blank.


“Um… because all your cleverness is used in places that ordinary people can’t understand.”


“…”


“However, this time, Junior Sister, you are going to be disappointed. The person that Junior Sister’s husband sees most often is not me, but that Jiang Zhaorou girl. So even if someone really has something to do with Junior Brother-in-law, that person won’t be me.”


“…Jiang Feizao?” Xia Yuqing was stunned. She looked at Yun Zhongyue with a little surprise. No wonder… no wonder the Ultra Seme Lord didn’t pay much attention to herself recently. Even if she was with the princess all day, he didn’t say a word. Yes…he has a new love.


Wait, that’s not right! Didn’t Jiang Feizao like General Ji? Could it be possible that she was treated a little bit better by the Ultra Seme Lord compared to Master Ji and is switching her love?


Yun Zhongyue looked at Xia Yuqing’s expression from the onset of being surprised, to the skeptical look afterwards, then finally to her entanglement. There was no jealousy and anger that he wanted to see. He couldn’t help being a little strange.


“Little Junior Sister, are you…not angry?”


“Angry? Why would I be angry?” Xia Yuqing tilted her head strangely.


“Um… Didn’t you get jealous a few nights ago because Junior brother-in-law looked at a certain kid causing you to almost throw yourself away? How come now that you know that Junior Brother-in-law is getting intimate with another woman, you…”


Xia Yuqing thoughtfully touched her chin: “If a turtle (sounds like b*stard) looks at mung beans, it may catch his eyes, but a turtle and a piece of soap (her nickname feizao means soap) are impossible to pair together. This is because soap doesn’t have eyes at all, ah ha ha ha…”


“…” Junior sister, are you cursing that your man is a b*stard implicitly?


“…Isn’t it funny?” Xia Yuqing laughed for a while, only to find Yun Zhongyue petrified. She looked at him with an embarra.s.sed expression and couldn’t help asking.


“Ahahaha…It’s funny, it’s funny…”


“…”


“Yi, that’s not right!” An awkward atmosphere spread between the two. Xia Yuqing made an exclamation and turned her head to stare at Yun Zhongyue. Her face sank slightly.


“What’s wrong?”


Xia Yuqing approached Yun Zhongyue fiercely. She stopped a few centimeters away from Yun Zhongyue: “How did Second Brother know what I was doing that night and why I was angry? At that time, Second Brother must be in the princess’s house, right? You had been following me all this time, but didn’t come save me? You just watched me become scared by your Fourth Royal Sister… I was so scared, I had cold sweat!”


“Junior Sister, don’t be angry! I was afraid of revealing your ident.i.ties, so I had to hold back. Moreover, you were fine in the end, right? Ouch, don’t hit me!” Yun Zhongyue screamed and covered his painful head. He leaped back and quickly escaped from Xia Yuqing’s attack range.


“Forced denials adds to the crime! Don’t run…” Xia Yuqing swept over the table and knocked over a few cups. With Xia Yuqing’s skills, it was impossible to even touch Yun Zhongyue who was an expertise in escape.


The scattered tea cups. .h.i.t the ground, making a very lively cracking sound.


“Oh, there is so much movement in the little Gongzi’s room, should we go and take a look?” The little maid outside the yard was startled when she heard the sounds and asked with some worry.


“Actually better not, the little Gongzi is probably in a bad mood now. If you are still rus.h.i.+ng forward to him at this time, isn’t this asking for trouble?” Another more senior maid on the side hurriedly persuaded.


The little maid was startled, a little puzzled: “In a bad mood? Is the little Gongzi in a bad mood? Why? Isn’t the Eldest Princess favoring him lately?”


The big maid looked around carefully. When she saw that there was no one else around, she leaned close to the little maid’s ear and whispered, “You don’t know this, but the little Gongzi was really favored a few days ago, but it was all because of Master Xi’s embarra.s.sment. These few days Master Xi’s body is healed, and the little Gongzi is gradually being neglected by Her Highness. Haven’t you seen that Her Highness has been with Master Xi these few days?”


The little maid was surprised: “It turns out that it was like this. Alas, the little Gongzi is also pitiful. I thought that since the little Gongzi was so good looking and his temperament was many times better than that of Master Xi, he should be able to stay with the Eldest Princess for a few more days. I didn’t expect…”


“You girl, don’t be confused at this time. Regardless of how good this little boy is, the only one who can really help our Highness in this place is Master Xi. Look at those people in the backyard. Which Gongzi was able to stay with our Highness for a long time? Isn’t it because they don’t have the skills of Master Xi? To our Highness, those Gongzis, as well as the little Gongzi today, are just entertainment for her highness during her free time. Only Master Xi’s talent is truly able to accompany her. You have not been here long in the princess mansion, so make sure you keep your eyes bright. If you are not careful and offend the people who shouldn’t be offended, you will definitely suffer.”


The big maid’s menacing intimidation made the little maid tremble all over. She shrank back slightly: “I know, thank you Jiejie for your reminder.”


“En.” The big maid nodded in satisfaction. Holding the food box in her hand, she turned away.


The little maid held the lunch box in her hand, looked at Xia Yuqing’s courtyard with pity for a moment, then turned around and hurriedly followed.


If Xia Yuqing knew that the movement caused by her beating her Second Brother was mistaken for her being out of favor, turning into a salty boy toy, and being unreasonable to vent her dissatisfaction, she would definitely look at the sky at a forty-five degrees and sigh: Ah I’ve really never thought of competing with a group of sissies! Don’t tarnish the fame of this Lord casually, OK? !


It’s a pity that she didn’t know anything at this moment, so the misunderstanding was created just like this.


As a result, Xia Yuqing patronized and condemned a little thief who cannot be saved. She also did not figure out why he appeared frequently in the princess’s mansion recently. However, the answer soon surfaced by itself.


On the tenth day after the fire in the Princess Mansion, Xia Yuqing’s former enemy and Feng Tingye’s most recent affair, Jiang Zhaorou, once again appeared in front of Xia Yuqing.


“Hey, Jiang Feizao, have you come to the Princess Mansion with Ji Gongzi again?” Knowing that Jiang Zhaorou would not hurt herself, cough cough… at least in the next little while, Xia Yuqing was a lot friendlier when she saw Jiang Zhaorou.


“En, I came with Da Ren. Recently, the Eldest Princess often calls Da Ren to the house.” Jiang Zhaorou looked at Xia Yuqing’s dumbfounded appearance. She couldn’t help rolling her eyes to the sky, wondering how she fell in the hands of this fool. The more she looked at her, the more unreliable she thought she was.


“The princess is rus.h.i.+ng to introduce Master Ji to a family, so naturally she wants to call Master Ji to the mansion every day.” Feng Tingye looked up at Jiang Zhaorou and said.


Sure enough, Jiang Zhaorou’s face became ugly. She glared at Xia Yuqing beside her and walked quickly towards Feng Tingye.


“…” Xia Yuqing touched her little nose with lingering fear. She was innocent! Who did she provoke? It was clearly the Ultra Seme Lord who provoked her, why did she end up receiving the oppressing eyes?


Yun Zhongyue on the side looked at the innocent little eyes of his Junior Sister, and patted her little head with pity. Junior Sister, you are so stupid. In the eyes of that little soap, you and your family are all in the same group. If she doesn’t stare at you, who else would she stare at?


“All the things you want are here.” Jiang Zhaorou took out a bunch of objects from her sleeves, and slapped it forcefully onto the table in front of Feng Tingye.


“What things?” Xia Yuqing leaned forward with some curiosity, but what entered her eyes was a mess of files. “These are…”


“Old General Ji’s medical records.” Feng Tingye replied concisely and clearly.


“General Ji’s medical records?”


“Well, General Ji is a great minister in the court. Although Zitang’s incident caused him to fall ill after the war, his illness was not as serious as people thought. The real death of General Ji should be during the month after the battle. During this period of time, he was an important court official and a respected veteran. It is unreasonable that Yun Zhongli never sent an imperial doctor in the palace to treat him and all patients who have been treated by the imperial doctor are bound to leave a medical record in the palace. Since Miss Jiang suspected that there was something hidden behind the death of General Ji back then, I had her investigate the medical records in the palace.”


“Oh, it turned out to be like this! In other words, the emperor and Jiang Feizao’s recent close personal relations.h.i.+p was not of having an affair. Instead, it was to have Jiang Feizao steal Old General Ji’s medical records in the palace?” Xia Yuqing exclaimed, without realizing what shocking words she had said.


“Affair?” Jiang Zhaorou bursted with blue veins on her head. She repeated Xia Yuqing’s words with gnas.h.i.+ng teeth. In an instant, she turned into something Xia Yuqing was very familiar with…G.o.dzilla.


“It’s not what I said, this is… what Second Senior Brother said.”


“…” Junior Sister, you have no morale. At the critical moment, how could you just push your Senior Brother out to block the knife? Can’t we get along happily?


“…” Second Brother, Junior Sister is just telling the truth. Master often tells us to be honest children!


“…”


Yun Zhongyue felt a clear chill behind him. As soon as he turned around, he saw Feng Tingye staring at him with a smile that was not a smile: “It seems that the Sixth Prince has been a little too bored recently. Having nothing to do, the Sixth Prince has even learned how to gossip and sow dissension like a housewife.”


“Uh…Brother-in-law, you have misunderstood. This is really not what I said. Junior Sister has a bad memory, you should know that. Maybe It was someone else who told her and she remembered it incorrectly. You must not blame the wrong person for this!” Yun Zhong Yue smiled and stepped back a few steps, speaking in a panic.


“What you said just now was really not what you said. You just said that the emperor had a close relations.h.i.+p with Jiang Feizao recently and that if someone really has something with the emperor, that person will definitely be…”


“Have a close relations.h.i.+p? Sixth Prince, your two eyes are so big, but is it just for decoration?” Jiang Zhaorou sneered and glanced at Yun Zhongyue. She then turned her head and glared at Xia Yuqing again, “Also, don’t call me Jiang Feizao, otherwise…”


“…”


Compared to Jiang Zhaorou’s rage, Feng Tingye was quite calm. He only lazily glanced at Yun Zhongyue, spitting out a few words: “I will talk to Xu Lao in regard to this matter. Also, I believe that Lu Rui will be very happy to hear about the various things that happened between Zhen and Ai Fei in Shu. Naturally, it includes this.”


“…” Yun Zhongyue completely petrified in place.


Xia Yuqing looked at Feng Tingye with a look of admiration. He was worthy of being the Ultra Seme Lord. He wouldn’t say things for show. In one move he would amaze the world with his feat. One blow to kill. He was merciless.


“Your Majesty, do you understand these medical records?” After a while, Xia Yuqing and the others finally turned their attention back to the medical records in Feng Tingye’s hands. Xia Yuqing asked with some curiosity and expectation.


“Of course……” Feng Ting Ye raised an eyebrow, then under the eager eyes of Xia Yuqing and Jian Zhaorou, he smiled: “Zhen cannot read it.”


“!”


“You do not understand it? If you do not understand, why did you get me to rack my brains over stealing these medical records?” Jiang Zhaorou’s expression changed. With a bang, she slammed the table in front of Feng Tingye, and roared loudly.


She really shouldn’t have placed her hopes on these people who are not reliable in any way! Cooperating with these people might be the biggest mistake of her life!


Feng Tingye didn’t put her scream in his eyes, but gave her a warning glance: “Who said Zhen wanted to see it?”


“If it’s not for you to see, then is it possible that it’s for her?” Jiang Zhaorou pointed directly at Xia Yuqing.


“…” This is the third time I was shot while already on the ground today. If this continues, I will be shot into a sieve! You guys can speak your business, why do you keep dragging me in? Please let me go!


“Of course not, but you don’t have to be so stimulated. Ai Fei and I both don’t understand it, but naturally someone can understand it.”


“You speak of this so lightly, but this is a case from the imperial hospital. Not to mention, if this kind of thing is leaked out, it could cause heads to fall. Thus, it’s even harder to find someone who can understand this kind of thing and can be trusted. The things in the palace are not something that everyone can understand!”


Jiang Zhaorou let out a low roar, but Feng Tingye only impatiently rewarded her: “If you don’t believe us so much, why ask us for help?”


“…” Jiang Zhaorou choked at Feng Tingye’s unceremonious words and humphed coldly. She put her hands on her chest and turned her head away.


Feng Tingye glanced at her coldly, then turned to look at Yun Zhongyue behind her: “Did you bring the people here?”


“I’ve brought them, they will be here in a while.”


Xia Yuqing watched the two people speak back and forth. Just as she opened her mouth to ask a question, a fluttering of clothes came from not far away.


“They’re here.” Feng Tingye narrowed his eyes. He turned his head to look in the direction that the breeze was blowing.


Several people in the room also followed the sound at the same time. They saw a figure wearing a black cloak leaping in from the window.


The black cloak completely covered the whole body of the incoming person, making it impossible to see the person’s true face. Plus the action of leaping in from the window…


Oh my G.o.d! Batman! Xia Yuqing looked at the black figure flying in. Her mouth turned into an O shape, and that word popped into her head!


“He is…” Jiang Zhaorou was shocked when she saw a person flying in from the outside. She stepped back reflexively, with some defensiveness on her face.


“He is someone Zhen specially invited who can understand the medical records of the hospital. We can definitely trust him.” Feng Tingye turned his head and glanced at the man in the black before whispering, “There is no one else here, let them see you.”


The man in the black seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Feng Tingye’s tone in calling him. He snorted and slowly stretched his hand to the cap of the cloak. Bit by bit, the hat on his head was pulled behind him.


Along with the back slip of the hood, the face of the man in black also appeared in front of everyone. It was…


“Second Master!” Xia Yuqing’s eyes shrank, staring at the person revealed.


That’s right, the visitor was Su Qingyan, the second head of Black Wind stronghold who accompanied Wu Jun. Back then, Su Qingyan and Wu Jun took the old lady and followed Feng Tingye and the others back to the capital. After watching the two settle down, he had left the capital, saying that he was going to the Northwest Snow Mountain to pick some snow lotus that had just bloomed. With no news at all, she didn’t expect to meet him again in this place.


“Second Master, why are you here?”


Su Qingyan patted the dust on his body, “I came to Shu to find some rare medicinal materials, but as soon as I entered the capital of Shu, I was caught by a man from the city.”


“……” Second Master, do you mean the emperor? Is it okay to complain about that person in front of them? And…


Su Qingyan looked at the expression on Xia Yuqing’s face: “What’s the matter with your disappointed expression?”


“…I thought there would be a three-headed six-armed man in such a big cloak. A man of G.o.d!”


“…” Fool, a person with three heads and six arms is not a man of G.o.d, but a monster!


The corners of Su Qingyan’s mouth twitched, even the corners of his eyes began to twitch. He has been really unlucky lately. Being caught and forced into labor when he goes out shows that this man’s intelligence network has reached a frightening point. He had only just stepped onto the land of the capital of Shu Kingdom, yet he knew it immediately. In other words… he has never been out of that person’s control at all.


Thinking of this, Su Qingyan couldn’t help turning his head and glanced at the calm man not far away.


“This man… can he do it?” Compared to Xia Yuqing’s excitement then disappointment, Jiang Zhaorou was somewhat suspicious of this man who appeared suddenly.


“He can do it, the Second Master is very incredible. I remember that he had an awesome nickname in Jiang Hu. What was it again? Ghost hand catching the blind?”


“Pu… catching the blind?” Yun Zhongyue couldn’t help laughing, but abruptly stifled it back under Su Qingyan’s murderous gaze. His face flushed red. He couldn’t do anything. There is one kind of person in this world who absolutely can’t be offended and that is…a doctor, cough cough…


“It’s the Ghost Immortal Doctor.” Su Qingyan gritted his teeth and corrected Xia Yuqing’s words.


“Ghost Immortal Doctor?” Before Xia Yuqing could answer, Jiang Zhaorou beside him sucked in a cold breath, “Are you really the Ghost Immortal Doctor?”


How does this girl know so many strong characters? !


“You don’t have to believe me.” Su Qingyan was too lazy to care about Jiang Zhaorou and gave her a roll of his eyes.


“Well, I came to you today to show you this thing.” Feng Tingye quietly watched several people talk lively, then interrupted after drinking a cup of tea.


“A medical record?” Su Qingyan glanced at the things on the table and raised his eyebrows.


“Yeah.”


Su Qingyan pondered for a moment: “If the precious medicinal materials I bought last time can be cheaper, I can consider doing you a favor.”


“…” He really is worthy of being the Second Master! He actually remembered to bargain with the Ultra Seme Lord at this time!


Feng Tingye glanced at him, calmly: “You get what you pay for.”


“Forget it, I’m leaving.” Su Qingyan turned around and wanted to leave without saying a word. Another calm voice came from behind: “After the matter is done, you can take the rhino horn from the Shu Kingdom.”


“Deal!”


“…” Ultra Seme Lord, the rhino horn is something from the Shu Kingdom, right? Is it really okay for you to use other people’s things as a bargaining chip without telling them?


Su Qingyan got the answer he wanted, so he turned around to start looking at the medical records. Xia Yuqing bounced around for a while, seeming to have discovered something and wondered: “Hey, don’t you have no martial arts, Second Master? Second Brother is also here, so how did you get in?”


After the last fire, the princess mansion’s defenses were much stricter than before. Su Qingyan did not have martial arts, so how could he come here by himself without anyone knowing?


“It was Miss Cui Er who brought me in.”


“Cui Er? Where is Cui Er now?”


“I don’t know, after bringing me in, she disappeared.”


“Disappeared?”


At the same time, in another courtyard of the princess mansion, Cui Er dressed as a maid in the mansion was standing at the gate of the courtyard about to turn around to leave. Suddenly a familiar voice came from behind: “Bi Xuan.”


“!” Cui Er’s face changed slightly. A rare stunned expression appeared on her always calm and humble face. She stiffened, turned her head, and saw a frail young man standing under the tree.


The breeze blew and raised the falling leaves, it also blurred Cui Er’s voice that had changed to the utmost astonishment: “…Young Master?”
