Chapter Fifty-Six: Seeking Medicine for the King, Suffering and Willingness
In Lin Mei'er's puzzled gaze, Xue Chen stood in front of them, chuckled and spoke: "Before, Yun Yi didn't let my uncle take a step, and my uncle wanted to rub your sharp energy, but in the end, every time you got the upper hand in your words, this time my uncle was even more unhappy and vowed to pay back, but at this juncture, you said that you wanted to leave, and my uncle would not be willing." I just watched my uncle's reaction, and he decided that you were going to steal the medicine and go back to catch the thief, but it seems that he is going to keep vigil in vain today. β
Xue Chen clenched his fist against his lips and coughed lightly a few times to hide the overly gloating arc of the corners of his mouth, and then continued: "You are arguing with him to the end in everything, I originally just thought that you were trying to maintain your dignity, after all, your uncle really doesn't speak well to you, but sometimes your uncle deliberately doesn't speak and you take the initiative to tease him, at that time I felt that it was too inconsistent with your usual style, it turned out that you had calculated this step at that time, and I just figured it out." I have to say, a woman like you is quite scary. β
Lin Mei'er listened quietly, slowly understood, and wanted to sigh a few words and praise him for being quite astute, after all, if he hadn't explained that she hadn't come back to her senses, she didn't expect Xue Chen to say that in the last sentence, Lin Mei'er slapped him on the shoulder, and said angrily: "Will you speak, see if Yiyi is so powerful, she is not as good as her to say this, or not a man, so careful!"
Xue Chen burst into tears and said flatteringly: "No, no, I'm complimenting Yiyi, she is so smart, unique in the world, unparalleled in the world, whoever becomes her opponent is so stupid that she doesn't know how to write the word 'death', it is a terrible thing to choose her as an opponent." "Woo, Mei'er really loves Yunyi the most and doesn't love him, it's so sad.
"Okay, don't be poor. To be honest, I didn't expect Uncle Xue to mention the purpose of our going up the mountain to ask for medicine so early, I have been waiting for him to speak, so that the possibility of our success in seeking medicine will be a little greater. β
Lin Mei'er thought for a while and said, "Xue Ren is a master who comes according to his temperament, he may be a little unbearable after being suppressed by you for two days, and he is eager to win back a city." β
Yun Yi nodded, and then said, "Go to sleep, get up early tomorrow, there is still a play to sing." β
Yun Yi slowly walked back to the room, her heart still heavy. Although she calculated that it was not impossible to ask for medicine at this point, she only won a little opportunity to negotiate with Xue Ren, Xue Ren would not mention anything she couldn't do anyway or let her take out something she couldn't hand over anyway, but the conditions he proposed would definitely not be simple, on the contrary, it would be very tormenting, and the most important thing was that even if she did it, he might not hand over the medicine. He has a lot of knowledge in speaking, and even if she finds all the loopholes in his speech, if he breaks his promise, they will not be in a rut. As she just said to Lin Mei'er, with the relationship between her family and Xue Ren, she couldn't force him to take out the medicine no matter what.
At breakfast time, Xue Ren went out of the room with the blue and black in his eyes, but he didn't expect that they didn't come to steal the medicine yesterday, causing him to wait all night in vain, did they know that he had been on guard so he deliberately didn't come yesterday, and wanted to come back when he couldn't stay up? Although he had a way to fall asleep by himself and let them not find the medicine, as long as they were caught on the spot, the evidence was conclusive before they could humiliate the stinky girl surnamed Yun fiercely. Xue Ren arrived in the lobby but saw no one, grabbed the boy on the side and asked, "Where are the people?"
"Miss Yun and Miss Lin are going down the mountain to leave, and the young master is going to send them off. β
"What? How many hours have they been gone?"
"I'll leave as soon as it's dawn, and I guess it's going to be halfway up the mountain. β
As soon as the boy's voice fell, Xue Ren rushed out, this contest had just begun, so that the girl could just leave? Ran out a few steps, suddenly thought of something, quickly turned around and went back to the room, and then carried the book in his arms and went down the mountain.
Xue Ren chased out a section of the road and didn't see a figure, Yulong Mountain is not high, and the steps are straight, but the slope of the mountain is not the same, some places are steep, some places are gentle, and there are big trees on both sides of the steps, he was stunned that he didn't see a figure. Xue Ren carried his still good light skills and hurried down, and finally caught up with them as he approached the foot of the mountain. After breathing a sigh of relief, Xue Ren straightened up and said extremely dissatisfied: "Disturb the master's house and don't say hello when you leave for a few days, your father taught you etiquette like this?"
Yun Yi said respectfully: "Although I told Uncle Xue yesterday that I wanted to leave, I really should say goodbye to Uncle Xue when I leave today, but Yun Yi knew that Uncle Xue didn't like Yun Yi and didn't want to affect your mood to get up early, so he asked the boy to tell him on his behalf, and left quietly after making breakfast for you." Yun Yi's lack of etiquette is also for Uncle Xue's sake. β
The corners of Xue Ren's mouth twitched, what he said was high-sounding, and he would really make excuses for himself. He also knew that this girl might not really want to leave, and he didn't know how to calculate him, but he was unwilling to let her leave. He died for this girl's mother for half a lifetime, and his mother's debt was repaid, he was reluctant to do anything to Yu'er, and it was not too much to be embarrassed for her daughter. Besides, people still came to look for trouble, so it's no wonder that he is.
But the truth is that so far, not only has he not embarrassed this ghost, but he has the upper hand in every battle of words. She came to disturb a pool of water and wanted to walk away, dreaming! Even if it was the result she wanted, he would admit it, but then he would make her look good. Hmph, let's start with this book. Xue Ren touched the book in his arms, he overheard the stinky girl of the Yun family when he went down the mountain before, for the sake of the King of Qi Xiao Yiyun almost died, if it weren't for his Yongwei She would have died a long time ago, she must have loved that Xiao Yiyun very much, so when he saw this, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control her?
Xue Ren handed the book to Yun Yi, Yun Yi looked a little surprised, took the book, didn't look at the book without a title, then bowed down and thanked him for the book, and then turned around and continued walking.
Xue Ren was dumbfounded: "Alas, don't you read that book." β
Yun Yi turned around and smiled and said, "No need, I'll go back and read it again, anyway, the book was given to me, and I don't have to rush to read it." β
"Who said the book was for you, just for you to see. β
Yun Yi looked very surprised, Lin Mei'er and Xue Chen couldn't help laughing beside her, and Yun Yi's pretense became bigger and bigger.
Yun Yi then showed a clear expression, apologized, and sat down to read a book directly on the stairs.
Lin Meier and Xue Chen squatted next to Yun Yi and read together after obtaining permission, as the book went back, the more ugly the faces of the two became, Yun Yi was expressionless, which made Xue Ren who was leaning on the trunk in front of him a little disappointed, and thought that she would be shocked and then sad and desperate, did this girl really not care or was scheming enough to foresee that something would happen to her beloved man and still be able to keep quiet?
If it is the former, then what she did for Xiao Yiyun is too strange, if it is the latter, then how terrible this girl should be. His eyes are very sharp, and it is almost impossible to escape his eyes without revealing the slightest discoloration at her age, even if there are few people in the harem who have been immersed in palace struggles for many years, even if they are good at hiding their emotions, there will always be a moment of gaffe.
At this time, Yun Yi's heart was actually turbulent, but she had already guessed a similar situation, but what was written in this book confirmed all this, so that her luck failed, and Biluo finally brought the worst result she didn't want to see, but she guessed these after all, so she confirmed with her own eyes that although her heart was extremely uncalm, she was still able to control herself from beginning to end without revealing a trace of emotion, the more she showed pain and despair, the smaller the chance of winning this game with Xue Ren, the more she behaved to save Xiao Yiyun, the more she would be caught by Xue Ren, the more difficult it would be for her to be caught by Xue Renγ
She closed the book, sadness and helplessness appeared in her eyes, then she closed her eyes tiredly and pinched the corners of her eyes, then got up and returned the book to Xue Ren, thanked her and wanted to continue leaving. Xue Ren was extremely puzzled: "You have also seen the harm of Biluo, don't you worry about Xiao Yiyun, have you decided not to care?"
Yun Yi sighed and said: "It's not that I don't care, I can't manage it, I just do my best and obey the destiny of heaven." β
"You've done a lot for him, but now that you know he's in danger and say it's fate, I don't understand you anymore, whether you love him or not. β
Yun Yi smiled faintly: "Love, love very much, so I am willing to worry about him and take risks, but there are some things that I can't force to come, especially to Uncle Xue, you are the benefactor of our family, so I can't force it." Besides, Xiao Yiyun is not that woman, she may not follow the same path, if this is the case, I will always guard him, and I will accompany him to die after he is completely out of control. After a pause, he continued: "I've been bothering Uncle Xue these days, so Yun Yi will leave." β
"Have you been with him in life and death? Xue Ren muttered.
"Eh, wait!" stopped Yun Yi, who was walking a few steps away, Xue Ren said, "I thought about it for a while, it's not interesting to ask you to be a married woman, see that you pity me and give you a chance." β
Yun Yi's eyes lit up, and then they darkened again, but he still raised his spirit and asked with a gentle smile, "Please also ask Uncle Xue to make it clear." β
Lin Mei'er looked at the thumbs up in her heart, this acting skill is too good, but Xue Chen shouted in his heart that this woman is too terrifying, too good at pretending, his uncle's eyes are so sharp, he has never deceived him successfully since he was a child, and now he is led by Yun Yi's nose, it is too terrifying.
Xue Ren turned around and looked at the white stone steps, Yun Yi frowned, it seemed that she had guessed correctly, this white stone steps were a good thing to toss people.
"If you are asking for medicine, then you must be sincere, in order to show how sincere you are, you can kneel up the mountain and come to me, one step at a time, nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps, nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine rings, and when you come to me, you will kowtow three more times, and if you are satisfied with me, then consider how about giving you medicine." β
"Die!" Lin Mei'er yelled at Xue Ren, then grabbed Yun Yi's arm and said hurriedly: "Don't pay attention to that madman, he only said that you did what he said and considered administering the medicine, and it was just his words that he was not satisfied, and then he insisted that he was not satisfied, or he still did not want to give the medicine after thinking about it!"
