Chapter 158

Volume One_Chapter 158: Making You Unable to Get Out of Bed!

Just as various thoughts were flying through Yun Qiyue's mind, Ye Lanjue spoke again, "Why does this Prince feel that you quite enjoy watching people do that sort of thing? If not, this Prince and you..."

While saying this, Ye Lanjue's lips moved close to Yun Qiyue's ear, his hot breath exhaling against it; Yun Qiyue felt a current, as if from her earlobe, strike her entire body.

So, blowing air into someone's ear felt like this?

It was truly the tables turning.

Hey! Wait!

Yun Qiyue finally realized the meaning in Ye Lanjue's words and came to her senses, "What nonsense are you spouting?"

Angry! A fierce glare!

Then she reached out to push Ye Lanjue... well, her hands were raised and pressed against the door, she couldn't reach out... awkward!

Looking at Yun Qiyue's shy, angry, and awkward appearance, Ye Lanjue couldn't help but let a smile emerge in his eyes.

In reality, his anger had long since dissipated, but this woman had done this several times, so she needed a warning.

"Yun Qiyue, next time I see you peeking at others, I will..."

Saying this, Ye Lanjue's lips moved close to Yun Qiyue's ear again, curling slightly, "Make you unable to get out of bed!"

Boom—

Yun Qiyue was shocked!

Ye Lanjue, he, he, he, he, he, is he flirting with her?

Is he? Is he?

This, he wouldn't be an impostor, would he?

Thinking of Ye Lanjue's usual persona, the more Yun Qiyue thought about it, the more she felt the Ye Lanjue in front of her was fake. Then, not knowing where she got the strength, or perhaps Ye Lanjue had gone easy on her, in any case, Yun Qiyue broke free from Ye Lanjue's hand and reached out to lift his mask.

She wanted to see if the Ye Lanjue in front of her was fake.

At this very moment, Yun Qiyue completely forgot that even if she lifted the mask, she might not be able to see.

However, how could Ye Lanjue let Yun Qiyue see his face?

"If you want to see, you can, after we marry." Ye Lanjue returned to his usual cold and calm demeanor, and he stepped back a bit, making Yun Qiyue feel as if what just happened was merely a dream.

She couldn't describe what she was feeling.

However, Yun Qiyue didn't dwell on it too much, because she happened to have a question she wanted to ask Ye Lanjue right now.

"Imperial Uncle, do you know about the Kongming Academy?"

From her grandfather's words, it could be seen that her grandfather was also one of the few who knew the legend of the Kongming Academy, but knew very little about it.

Then the Imperial Uncle should know, right?

Upon hearing this, Ye Lanjue nodded, "I know."

As expected!

Yun Qiyue was pleasantly surprised, "Then Imperial Uncle, can you tell me about the Kongming Academy?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Lanjue asked in return, "Do you want to go?"

Yun Qiyue was stunned upon hearing this, then shook her head.

She had no interest in a place she didn't understand.

Ye Lanjue: "Then there is nothing to talk about."

Yun Qiyue: "..."

Seeing that Ye Lanjue really had no intention of telling her, Yun Qiyue couldn't help but draw out her tone: "Imperial Uncle—"

Fine, the little woman's routine; Yun Qiyue felt she was becoming more and more adept at playing it.

Ye Lanjue: "..."

Finally, Ye Lanjue only said faintly: "You will know."

In the Library Pavilion, there are books on all the affairs of the world; a small Kongming Academy is naturally recorded there as well.

It just depends on when she can get to reading that far.

Yun Qiyue: "..."

She always felt that Ye Lanjue's gaze seemed to carry a deep meaning, but when she wanted to look closely, she saw nothing.

In the end, Ye Lanjue said nothing more and disappeared into the dark night.

After Ye Lanjue left, Yun Qiyue immediately darkened her face and summoned Yu Lin.

"I think there is a problem with the man who appeared tonight; find a way to investigate."

Things were going too smoothly, and Xu Shi's reaction was too strange; until the matter was cleared up, she felt uneasy.

Upon hearing this, Yu Lin nodded and left.

And this night, the Marquis Mansion was destined to be restless.

When many servants woke up in the morning, they found that some people they were familiar with were gone, and the servants around the masters had all been replaced.

For a time, the atmosphere in the Marquis Mansion was very low, and the servants were all trembling with fear, doing their work with extreme caution.

And early in the morning, Yun Qiyue received some not-so-good news: Xu Ze was gone. Hmm.

Yes, the Xu Ze she had people capture had been rescued.

Even the people Xu Ze had sent to guard him hadn't heard a single sound.

And clearly, this could not have been done by Xu Shi or the Xu family.

Xu Ze's disappearance made Yun Qiyue feel another wave of unease in her heart.

She always felt that the person who rescued Xu Ze might be the one truly related to Xu Shi.

But for the moment, she had no way to investigate.

Sitting at the desk with a brush, she thought for a while, and Yun Qiyue finally put pen to paper.

Although relying on others' strength made her seem incompetent.

But if one has support and doesn't know how to use it, that is foolish.

Therefore, Yun Qiyue wrote down her conjectures and suspicions on paper and had someone send it to the Regent's Mansion, asking Ye Lanjue to help her investigate.

Anyway, as her fiancé, it was only right for her to enjoy this little convenience.

After the letter was sent out, Yun Qiyue began to arrange for the opening of the medical hall.

Within a day, the news that the future Regent Consort was going to open a medical hall spread through every street and alley.

The plaque was hung up immediately, inscribed with: Ghost Doctor Pavilion.

Passersby who saw the three words "Ghost Doctor Pavilion" all felt that Yun Qiyue was too bold; otherwise, how could she dare to open a medical hall called Ghost Doctor Pavilion? Wasn't that only one character different from the Ghost Night Pavilion?

If Yun Qiyue knew their train of thought, she would definitely spray them in the face.

She was a Ghost Doctor in her past life; was there a problem with opening a medical hall called Ghost Doctor Pavilion in this life?

Those who thought there was a problem were the ones with the real problem, right?

However, at this time, Yun Qiyue was in the General's Mansion, looking at Li Shulan, who had come to curry favor, with a half-smile.

"If it weren't for Qiyue, the power to manage the household wouldn't have fallen to me. These little trinkets are all for Qiyue; I hope Qiyue you won't mind."

The "little trinkets" in Li Shulan's mouth were, at the very least, a bracelet made entirely of green jade.

At this moment, Li Shulan's expression was also entirely gentle; one couldn't see at all that they had ever had any grudges.

But Yun Qiyue had no interest in being hypocritical with her.

Therefore, after Li Shulan finished speaking, Yun Qiyue said with a half-smile: "If the Third Madam is here to thank me for that, there's no need. But while the Third Madam is managing the household, please try your best not to run to my General's Mansion."

After saying this, without waiting for Li Shulan to respond, she said directly to Sixue: "See the guest out."

Mercilessly, she turned and left.

Sixue walked up to Li Shulan, whose face could no longer hold its expression, and made a gesture of invitation, "Third Madam, please."

Things having reached this point, could Li Shulan stay?

Naturally, she could not.

After returning to the Third Branch in anger, no matter how good Li Shulan's cultivation was, she was so angry that she smashed quite a few things.

Yun Jianye, who was on the side, watched and said as if it were none of his business: "You insisted on looking for trouble yourself; she is just a junior, why go so far?"

Upon hearing this, Li Shulan was even angrier.

Taking a deep breath, Li Shulan looked at Yun Jianye, her eyes darkening slightly: "Do you know why I went to curry favor with her?"
