Chapter 134: Volume 1, Chapter 134: Qiyue Nannan, Grandfather Wants to Discuss Something with You

Yun Qiyue followed Princess Xuanyuan Rao to the front hall of the main courtyard.

For a time, neither of them spoke.

After a long while, Xuanyuan Rao looked coldly at Yun Qiyue, "You said you can treat my problem?"

Yun Qiyue nodded, very certain: "I can!"

"Do you know the consequences of deceiving me?" Xuanyuan Rao's tone was very cold.

Upon hearing this, Yun Qiyue just looked straight at Xuanyuan Rao, her tone calm as she said: "I never say things I am not sure of."

Looking at Yun Qiyue, Xuanyuan Rao's complexion was still not good, but in the end, she said something that surprised Yun Qiyue.

Xuanyuan Rao said, "You are indeed just like your mother, annoying."

Yun Qiyue: "..."

The two of them?

It wasn't what she thought, right?

Yun Qiyue suddenly felt a sense of shame for the thought that had arisen in her heart.

And clearly, Xuanyuan Rao didn't decide to continue discussing Yun Qiyue's mother, only asking, "How long until you can treat my problem?"

After finishing, Xuanyuan Rao frowned, "I don't listen to things without a deadline."

Upon hearing this, Yun Qiyue thought for a moment, then said: "Three times."

Seeing Xuanyuan Rao was puzzled, Yun Qiyue explained, "Within half a month, apply needles for the Princess three times, and then the Princess follows my prescription and takes medicine for seven days, and the problem can be solved."

Falling into water in winter damaged a woman's foundation, which was very difficult to regulate for others, and was even an incurable disease.

But for her, it wasn't a big problem.

Actually, if it were her former self, she could succeed in one day.

However, this body of hers couldn't do it.

Every time she applied needles, her body felt like it couldn't take it, unable to use full strength.

So, she gave a more conservative time.

However, in this way, the time for the task exceeded the limit.

Thinking of this, Yun Qiyue's consciousness entered the system.

"System, I am treating the Princess today, but I cannot cure her today, does it count as task success?"

System: "It does not count as success, but it also hasn't failed, so the host's points will not be deducted, and once the Princess's body is fully recovered, the points will still be credited."

Hearing this explanation, Yun Qiyue was very satisfied.

As long as points weren't deducted, it was fine.

As for life value, Yun Qiyue thought of Ye Lanjue and curled her lips slightly.

When the time came, she would just go find Ye Lanjue to replenish it, it wasn't a big problem.

Yun Qiyue thought very easily in her heart, and there was no change on her face.

And when Xuanyuan Rao heard that her problem could be solved in half a month, she was shocked for a moment.

But the shock lasted only an instant; soon Xuanyuan Rao's expression was normal, and her expression when facing Yun Qiyue didn't soften, only saying faintly: "Since that's the case, let's begin."

Only Xuanyuan Rao knew that her palms were sweating at this moment.

Or perhaps, she had never thought that she would have a day where she would be better.

General's Mansion, a game of Go was set up in the center of the study.

The Old Master held white pieces, and Ye Lanjue held black pieces.

However, the two had sat stiffly for a long time, and there were only a dozen or so pieces on the board.

At this moment, the states of the two playing were completely different.

Ye Lanjue was like an old monk in meditation, very calm, and his aura was restrained as much as possible.

And the Old Master, Yun Yongyuan, only felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, his forehead covered in fine beads of sweat.

Heaven knows, although he liked fighting, he only liked fighting on the battlefield. He didn't like fighting on the chessboard at all.

For him, making him play chess was no different from taking his life.

And this god-damned Regent, he didn't know which nerve was wrong, actually running to the General's Mansion to play chess with him; was he deliberately looking for trouble?

The Old Master watched as a stick of incense passed, and he didn't know where the white piece should be placed; his heart was full of anger and resentment, and finally, he simply did it once and for all, placing the piece in his hand in a random place.

At this moment, the brows beneath Ye Lanjue's mask were already tightly knitted.

The guard said that old people generally liked young people to accompany them in a game of chess.

But, Yun family Old Master's skill in playing chess, it was truly not easy to let him win.

After thinking for a long time, Ye Lanjue placed his piece.

Yun Yongyuan only felt his head was big, but having had one random move, this second one was much easier; Yun Yongyuan, without any psychological burden, placed several pieces in succession.

Thinking, this just needs to end quickly; who cares who wins or loses? If he could win, it would be unless the sun rose from the west.

However, just as Yun Yongyuan thought this, he heard Ye Lanjue's voice come.

"The Marquis has won."

"What?" Yun Yongyuan thought he had misheard.

"The Marquis has won by half a piece." Ye Lanjue pointed to a position.

Although extremely difficult, he had finally let the Old Master win.

Yun Yongyuan looked at the chessboard; however, the chessboard knew him, but he didn't know the chessboard.

Then, Yun Yongyuan looked out the window—the sun definitely hadn't risen from the west.

So—

Yun Yongyuan looked at Ye Lanjue with an indescribable expression.

Even a bad chess player like himself could win; it seemed this Regent's chess skill was truly poor to the extreme.

Contempt!

At the same time, Yun Yongyuan thought in his heart: Even chess he can't play, so his granddaughter definitely can't marry such a person.

Ye Lanjue didn't know Yun Yongyuan's thoughts, and then began to tidy up the pieces, looking like he was prepared to continue.

Watching Ye Lanjue's movements, Yun Yongyuan was simply terrified.

This chess playing was simply too torturous; he was determined not to do it again.

So, Yun Yongyuan said with a stern face, "Playing chess is so boring, why don't we drink tea?"

Ye Lanjue thought for a moment and nodded.

Yun Yongyuan thought, as the host, no matter how much he didn't like this person in front of him, he should be polite.

So he asked, "I wonder what tea the Regent wants to drink?"

Ye Lanjue thought for a moment and chose the lowest grade he had drunk on weekdays, "Longshan Yulu."

Yun Yongyuan's face stiffened imperceptibly, then he looked at Huailin on the side, "You—go get my Longshan Yulu."

Yun Yongyuan felt that his heart was dripping blood.

Longshan Yulu, the tea he had treasured for many years, just that little bit.

Sure enough, this Regent kid coming to the General's Mansion definitely had bad intentions.

Such a person with bad intentions definitely couldn't marry his granddaughter!

When the Old Master's Longshan Yulu was brought out, Ye Lanjue looked at the quality and only felt it was a bit poor, but didn't say much, picked out some of the better quality, threw the broken ones aside, and began to boil the tea himself.

However, looking at the broken dregs that were thrown away, the Old Master's heart was almost broken.

What kind of sin had he committed? The tea he had treasured for several years was just ruined like this in an instant.

Heartache!

He wanted to beat his chest and stamp his feet.

The Old Master only felt his heart dripping blood.

In this mood, when the Old Master drank the tea, he couldn't even taste the flavor he loved most.

Extremely depressed in his heart, he wanted to vent.

So, Yun Yongyuan looked at Ye Lanjue, "Today, this old man's hands are itchy, I want to spar with you, Regent, is that feasible?"

Ye Lanjue heard this, thinking the Old Master was a military general and naturally loved to spar, so there was no reason not to agree.

However, just as the two began, the scene of the Old Master beating Ye Lanjue that he had imagined didn't appear; instead, his arm was very carelessly—dislocated by Ye Lanjue.

The Old Master looked at his dislocated, very loose-looking arm, and his thought that his granddaughter couldn't marry Ye Lanjue became even more firm.

And Ye Lanjue hadn't expected that a simple move of his own could dislocate the Old Master's arm, and immediately wanted to order Chen Feng to find an imperial physician.

But, Yun Yongyuan waved his hand, "No need, this old man can handle such a small matter. Today, this old man is tired; if the Regent has nothing else, please return."

The voice was weak, really like he was extremely tired.

If it weren't for his arm's strange posture, no one would even think his arm was dislocated.

Seeing Yun Yongyuan refuse, and seeing that he was indeed extremely tired, Ye Lanjue nodded.

Watching Ye Lanjue walk out of the General's Mansion gate, Yun Yongyuan was simply tearful, immediately ordering people to close the door, looking like he was sending away a plague god, almost setting off firecrackers to celebrate.

And Ye Lanjue, after walking out of the General's Mansion, turned to look at Chen Feng: "Was my performance today okay?"

This was the first time he had taken the initiative to please someone.

Only because he knew this was the only true relative of that woman.

Of course, he didn't want that woman to know, lest she get smug.

Chen Feng: "..."

Inner thought: Okay what okay? He was sweating for the Old Master.

Their master, everything is good, but the problem of getting along with people is really—uh, hard to describe.

Fortunately, the master knows how to get along with the future mistress. Chen Feng thought thankfully.

On the other side, after Yun Qiyue finished applying needles for Xuanyuan Rao, she was exhausted.

Xuanyuan Rao saw Yun Qiyue like this and rarely kindly asked Yun Qiyue to stay for dinner, but Yun Qiyue didn't stay.

Because, she still had to go to the Regent's Mansion.

Her life value was running low, so she had to hurry and find Ye Lanjue to replenish it.

Regarding Yun Qiyue's refusal, Xuanyuan Rao didn't show too many thoughts, only coldly sending her away.

After leaving the Princess Mansion, Yun Qiyue had the carriage driven to the Regent's Mansion.

However, upon hearing that Yun Qiyue had come to find their Prince, the guard looked embarrassed, "The Prince has gone out, he is not in the mansion."

Yun Qiyue looked at the darkening sky, somewhat anxious, "When will he be back?"

Guard: "This, the small one doesn't know."

Yun Qiyue thought for a moment and said, "Please, you must find a way to tell your Prince that I have an important matter to find him for, and I must see him tomorrow."

As she spoke, she took a deep breath, Yun Qiyue emphasized, "Remember, it's very, very important."

Seeing the guard nod, Yun Qiyue returned to the carriage.

However, thinking of her impending life value, Yun Qiyue's tightly knitted brows couldn't relax.

What if that guard couldn't notify Ye Lanjue, and she couldn't find Ye Lanjue tomorrow?

Wait for death?

For a moment, Yun Qiyue thought of Jiuyuan.

Or, she could try to find Jiuyuan tonight for an emergency.

However, just as she had this thought, Yun Qiyue inexplicably felt a sense of guilt in her heart.

The carriage slowly returned to the General's Mansion.

As soon as the door opened, Yun Qiyue saw the Old Master standing not far from the gate.

Thinking of the current stalemate between the two, Yun Qiyue remained calm.

And the Old Master saw Yun Qiyue, and there was a moment of silence.

However, soon, the Old Master thought of his purpose, and became somewhat anxious, yet somewhat earnestly said: "Qiyue Nannan, Grandfather wants to discuss something with you, okay?" ===== CHAPTER 135 =====
