Chapter 12: It’s definitely not a serious topic

Yu Lingye clenched his fingers.

Entering the second stage, this also means...

"Has he lost all his skills?"

Xie Yingmian: "Well, he has already entered the second seven days, and his internal energy has long been exhausted."

"Not only can he not use his internal energy, he also has to constantly endure the pain of his internal organs being crushed."

Yu Lingye: "Can it be recovered?"

Xie Yingmian fell silent.

Seeing Xie Yingmian's silence, Yu Lingye also became serious.

Fu Mo has a cold personality and is not interested in anything except martial arts. He is a real martial arts fanatic.

If Fu Mo doesn't have time anymore...

Yu Lingye couldn't imagine how big of a blow this news would be to Fu Mo.

"Is there no way to recover?" Yu Lingye said in a heavy voice.

"There's little hope," Xie Yingmian said. "The Seven-Day Silk Poison is different from other poisons. Even if the poison is completely eliminated, the damage it causes to the internal organs and meridians is irreversible."

"Let me give you an inappropriate example."

"If a person's internal energy is a tightly twisted rope, and the rope is broken apart by the poison, it becomes an ordinary rope. An ordinary rope is just an ordinary rope. Even if the poison is removed, it will not automatically turn back into a twisted rope."

"So, the chance of recovering Kung Fu..."

Bang bang bang.

As Xie Yingmian was speaking, there was a knock on the door.

Behind the door was Fu Mo with an expressionless face.

Fu Mo walked in and placed two sets of clothes on the table.

He didn't finish his words, put down his clothes and turned to leave.

Yu Lingye wanted to call Fu Mo back.

Fu Mo pretended not to hear and quickened his pace to leave.

Xie Yingmian: "You're so young, but you have no patience at all. I haven't even finished what I'm saying."

"never mind."

As for the rest of the words, it doesn’t make much difference whether you say them or not.

Her original intention was to save the person.

Restoration was not within her purview.

She wants to run away and has no time to waste here.

"When can your medical fee be settled?" Xie Yingmian asked.

"Are you short of money?"

"Of course, as you know, my dowry is all worthless second-hand goods. I only have eighty taels of silver in my dowry. Without a dowry, I can only earn more money to support myself."

"I'll let Fu Mo give it to you later."

"It turns out that Fu Mo is in charge of the palace's money." Xie Yingmian thought of Fu Mo's cold face that kept strangers away, and understood.

With such a paralyzed face in charge, the servants would definitely not dare to report more or less.

Yu Lingye: "It's my private vault."

"Usually, Fu Mo is in charge. If you wish, Fu Mo can be handed over to you for management."

Xie Yingmian: "You have a pretty good plan."

"It's my money if you let me manage it."

"I took money from my own vault for myself. When you take it back one day, your money will still be your money, and my money will also become your money. It means that I have worked for nothing."

She refused three times in a row: No, no, impossible!

Yu Lingye: ...

She is a real logical genius.

"Okay, I'll go change my clothes." Xie Yingmian touched the clothes on the table.

I don't know what fabric it is made of, but it feels great.

"The fabric of your palace's work clothes is really good. I like it very much. Thank you."

Yu Lingye frowned slightly.

Work clothes?

What a weird name this is.

Xie Yingmian changed her clothes quickly.

Yu Lingye watched from afar as a tall and thin figure walked towards him.

The crescent-white dress was inlaid with dark silver patterns, which made Xie Yingmian's originally dark skin look much whiter.

She changed her hairstyle, which was extremely simple, tied up with just a hairpin.

The plain clothes are cool and the hair bun is simple.

It also adds a sense of alienation and a cold feeling that keeps people at a distance.

Seeing Yu Lingye staring at him.

Xie Yingmian raised her eyebrows: "Is His Royal Highness Prince Ling bewitched by me?"

"What a coincidence! I'm also attracted by your Highness's looks."

"Since Your Highness is interested and I am, why don't we take this opportunity to have a good meal together?"

Yu Lingye didn't understand the hint in Xie Yingmian's words.

However, judging from Xie Yingmian's playful eyes and actions, this was definitely not a serious statement.

"I'm a very dedicated person." Xie Yingmian came close to Yu Lingye, smiling sweetly.

"Be a princess for a day, fulfill your duties for a day."

"Your assets and your face both suit my aesthetic taste."

"I'm not at all disappointed in having a good meal with you. I'm actually looking forward to it."

The veins on Yu Lingye's forehead twitched several times.

He was wrong.

He shouldn't have felt that this woman was cold and distant.

She still behaves in an outrageous and shameless way.

Xie Yingmian was very close to Yu Lingye.

Yu Lingye could clearly feel the hot breath coming out of Xie Yingmian's mouth, and could also smell her special body fragrance.

The fragrance lingered in his nose, and he, who was usually as steady as a mountain, suddenly felt a little distracted.

Xie Yingmian looked at Yu Lingye's red ears and teased, "Are you shy?"

"I told you, we are a proper couple, everything we do is normal."

"Mornings are hot, so it's a good time to eat a big meal. Would you consider it?"

No matter how slow Yu Lingye was, he understood what Xie Yingmian meant by the feast.

He turned his head away and said through gritted teeth, "Shameless!"

"Shameless?" Xie Yingmian laughed.

"I was married to His Royal Highness Prince Ling in a formal ceremony. We are a legal couple."

"Is it shameless for a husband and wife to eat a good meal together?"

"As a descendant of the royal family, His Royal Highness Prince Ling's every move represents the royal family."

"If word gets out, what will happen if the people follow your example and stop having children? What will happen to the Dayu Dynasty's fertility rate?"

Yu Lingye's face was filled with black lines.

Can this be related to the fertility rate of the Dayu Dynasty?

Xie Yingmian gently placed her fingers on Yu Lingye's cheek: "Why is your face so dark?"

"Don't take it seriously. I just said it casually. If Your Highness behaves well, I will pretend I didn't hear anything."

Feeling Xie Yingmian's slightly cool fingertips moving on his face, Yu Lingye swallowed back what he was about to say.

I don’t know if it’s a side effect of the Fire Crystal Butterfly Scale Powder or if the stove in the room is burning too brightly.

An indescribable feeling of heat filled the air.

This feeling of heat surged up from the dantian and spread to all parts of the body.

Not only were the tips of his ears red, but his face was red too.

To avoid embarrassment, Yu Lingye simply closed his eyes.

Xie Yingmian sighed.

For a man of Yu Lingye's status, countless women would come to him just by waving his fingers.

He is not young anymore, but he behaves very immaturely, like a young boy.

Yu Lingye's innocence makes her look like a female hooligan who teases decent men.

"Has His Royal Highness Prince Ling ever eaten meat?" Xie Yingmian asked.

“…”

"If you don't answer, then there's nothing." Xie Yingmian suddenly pulled his hand away, a hint of disgust in his eyes, "Why didn't you say so earlier?"

"If you had told me earlier I wouldn't have taken advantage of you."

Yu Lingye's eyes flashed with a subtle anger: "Do you like those who have had sex?"

Xie Yingmian shook his head: "That's not the case."

"There are probably three reasons why people your age don't eat meat."

Xie Yingmian held up three fingers: "The first reason is that there is something wrong with my body."

"The second reason is that I don't like women and prefer the same sex."

"The third reason is that there is a white moonlight in your heart, and you are keeping your virginity for her."
