Marrying the Mind-Reading Regent, My Acting Skills Explode

The great medical master Xiao Tang has transmigrated into a book! Into the role of the unlucky cannon fodder female supporting character, who is forced to marry the vicious great villain of the boo...

Chapter 22 The Regent noticed Xiao Tang was nearby

"A master would tell fortunes at the Drunken Dream Restaurant?" Yang Defu had an extremely cautious question.

He looked at Di Jingling in disbelief.

“Your Highness, last time I went up Divine Calculation Mountain, I was thrown down there. And last time you tried to go up, you were blocked outside the mountain, and they even released wolves to bite you.”

Di Jingling: "..."

He doesn't need to mention this!

"Since the old man Tianji's disciple is right outside the door, why don't we go and have our fortunes told?" Yang Defu rubbed his hands excitedly.

He was feeling frustrated and had nowhere to vent his anger at being thrown down the mountain last time.

Before Di Jingling could respond, he had already gotten up and left.

When I went outside, wow, the line was incredibly long!

People lined up all the way from the second floor of the restaurant to the end of the alley.

In this crowded scene, Yang Defu tried to cut in line, but was met with glares and disdain from the people.

Di Jingling sat upright in his seat, slowly picked up a cup of tea, and took a small sip.

The clouds are light and the breeze is gentle; I feel relaxed and carefree.

until--

Wow, there are so many people!

[Hehe, I made a killing today, I'm so happy!]

Is Xiao Tang nearby?

He tightened his grip on the cup and looked up at Yan Jiu: "Check if the Princess Consort is nearby."

Yan Jiu nodded blankly, and when he turned to leave, he was shocked by the exaggerated crowd outside.

If a mere junior disciple from the Divine Calculation Mountain is so popular, one can only imagine how crazy the senior disciples on the mountain must be after they leave.

However, Yan Jiu did not see where the princess was.

...

Xiao Tang collapsed from exhaustion when she counted the 99th person.

She refused the remaining people's offer to have their fortunes told.

"Ahem, I'm tired. My magic power is exhausted. Please come again next time."

The crowd dispersed disappointed.

Just as Xiao Tang was about to leave, the waiter hurriedly led the shopkeeper to greet her.

"Grandma, will you be coming again tomorrow?"

Xiao Tang: "..."

She was about to say it depended on the situation when she suddenly saw a familiar figure on the second floor.

[Holy crap, who else could that man with the silver hair and black robe be but the villain?]

Run! Run!

Without having time to say much to the shopkeeper and waiter, she turned and ran.

Just as Di Jingling was about to go downstairs, she happened to see a figure rush out, so fast that it turned into a blur.

With her shabby clothes and disheveled hair, she must be his princess.

Yang Defu walked back with a regretful look on his face. "Damn it, it wasn't my turn yet, and the master didn't count."

Upon seeing the shopkeeper, he immediately asked, "What time is that lad coming tomorrow? This general intends to wait for him here!"

They mistook it for a man.

The shopkeeper's lips twitched. He didn't know who the general was talking about and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"I...I don't know either."

Di Jingling narrowed his dark eyes, ignoring the conversation between the shopkeeper and Yang Defu.

...

Xiao Tang calculated the amount of silver she had earned.

A total of five hundred taels, plus eighty-eight coins in loose change.

In this way, there should be enough money to prepare medicine for the main villain.

However, only one bottle will be provided.

That villain's poison would require six bottles over three days.

If you want to firmly grasp the fate of the main villain by the neck, you can't give her the full dose of the antidote all at once, or it would make her look cheap.

Finally, it was time for Xiao Tang to take the villain down!

She went to the pharmacy to get the medicine before meeting up with Ruyi.

"Your Highness..." Ruyi had just started to speak when Xiao Tang stuffed a steaming hot meat bun into her mouth.

"Eat up, are you hungry? Let's go back to the manor."

Holding the meat bun, Ruyi was moved.

Upon returning to the manor, Xiao Tang went straight to the palace kitchen and looted the utensils for brewing medicine and the tools for grinding medicine.

By the time she finished brewing the medicine and brought it to the Regent's study, two hours had already passed...

Before the man even entered, a clear male voice could be heard coming from the Regent's study.

"That brat fortune teller, I'll go to the Drunken Dream Restaurant at dawn tomorrow and wait for him. When I find him, I'll also do a divination for the Regent, how about that?"

"I'm taking leave tomorrow and won't be attending court. I'll just wait for that little charlatan from Divine Calculation Mountain to tell my fortune!"
