Chapter 118 It was cursing and swearing, and its curses were really awful.

"What did you say?"

Qin Ye sat up in surprise, thinking he had misheard.

"Yun Si, say that again?"

"I mean, pretend to be divorced."

Yun Si also stood up and quickly explained, "This way, maybe he will relax his vigilance and won't keep such a close watch on us anymore, and we will have more opportunities to meet."

"no!"

Qin Ye flatly refused, his expression icy: "Don't even think about it!"

"..."

Yun Si was speechless for a moment, not expecting him to object so vehemently.

"Yun Si, I won't allow you to sever ties with me. No matter what, I won't divorce you, I'd rather die than divorce you!"

"Okay, okay."

Yun Si coaxed, "We're not getting a divorce, and I never said I really wanted a divorce..."

"You say it's fake, but everyone else thinks it's real. What's the difference between that and the real thing?"

Forehead.

What he said seemed to make sense, and she couldn't refute it.

"Okay, never mind."

Yun Si pulled him back down to lie down: "Why don't you sleep for a while too, okay?"

Qin Ye nodded.

Yun Si found a comfortable position in his arms, closed her eyes, and fell asleep peacefully.

He is warm all over; he is very hot in the summer and a natural heater in the winter.

It's late autumn now, and the blankets are starting to get cold.

Although Yun Si's body was fine, she still felt cold and was somewhat afraid of the cold.

Holding her in his arms, Yun Si felt incredibly safe and slept soundly until dawn.

Unfortunately, when she opened her eyes, she was alone in the room again.

Suddenly, she felt empty inside.

This is different from before. Even if I didn't see him after waking up, he would always return quickly after court. But now...

"Awoo..."

Xiao Yi burst in from the outside, yelling at Yun Si to vent her dissatisfaction.

Last night, it clearly completed its task, but failed to enter the room.

It kept howling, and although Yun Si couldn't understand it, she could strongly feel its anger and grievance.

He grumbled and cursed for quite a while.

The insults were really harsh.

No matter how Yun Si tried to coax it, it wouldn't listen. Even offering it extra food didn't work. It wasn't until it had "scolded" enough that it finally jumped onto the chair and sat down.

That means, let's have an extra meal.

It's waiting to be eaten.

Yun Si sighed and quickly called Lan Xin to get some meat for her little ancestor.

They did a good job this time, but they were locked out again.

The way they sat in the chair waiting for food was so self-righteous.

Lansing disliked it, but couldn't get rid of it, and couldn't afford to offend it.

The key is that no matter how much you serve it or try to please it, it still looks down on you.

Lansing was very upset.

He brought the meat over and gave it to Lu Yu, asking Lu Yu to deliver it to it.

Lu Yu didn't care; he cherished it very much.

Every time he took advantage of it eating, he couldn't help but pet it. At first, it made a "woof woof" warning sound, which scared Lu Yu a little and made him restrain himself.

As she spent more time with it, Lu Yu realized that it was only fierce on the surface and wouldn't actually do anything to harm her, so she became bolder and bolder.

"Slight difference."

Lu Yu brought in the meat.

Xiao Yi gets annoyed whenever she sees her, her eyes blatantly suspicious, but Lu Yu acts as if she can't see it.

What should be done to it, and what should still be done to it.

"Come on, let's eat meat."

Lu Yu placed the meat basin on the table and picked it up with one hand.

It let out a howl, broke free from Lu Yu's embrace, and jumped onto Yun Si's shoulder.

Yun Si was at her desk, studying the remaining recipes for poisonous herbs that she hadn't tried yet.

Once it's written down, we'll test it one by one.

"Slight difference."

Yun Si called out to it helplessly, "Stop messing around and go eat, or I'll give it to someone else."

Upon hearing that its food was to be given to someone else, Xiao Yi immediately jumped onto the table and began to eat heartily.

It's impossible for him to give his things to others.

Yun Si spent half an hour concocting dozens of recipes using all the remaining poisonous herbs and insects that she hadn't tried yet, waiting for her to test them one by one.

Before I knew it, it was noon.

During the meal, Lanxin came to report: "My lord, Prince Lin has arrived and is in the study. I wonder what he and the prince are talking about."

Is this an apology?

He does keep his word.

However, an apology does not equate to reconciliation.

Qin Ye could not forgive him, nor could he give up his power grab.

It doesn't really mean much.

Yun Si simply couldn't swallow this insult.

As soon as Lanxin finished speaking, Doctor Ji came over with several bags of medicinal herbs and piled them on the tea table next to her.

"Your Highness, these are all good things. I must give them to you so that they can be used to their fullest potential."

"What good stuff?"

Yun Si put down her chopsticks and went over to take a look, and couldn't help but gasp.

Goodness.

These are all medicinal materials that are just as precious as the Tian Shan snow lotus.

It's estimated that none of the pharmaceutical merchants in the entire capital could obtain even one of these.

There are at least a dozen kinds here.

All of them are rare medicinal herbs from the Northern Yan region, which can only grow in the coldest places.

Where did you get it?

Yun Si had actually guessed it, but she was too shocked to believe it.

After all, even the Northern Yan royal family might not have many of these medicinal herbs, so how could Prince Lin possibly have obtained so many?

He colluded with the Northern Yan people, and the Northern Yan people were very generous to him.

"Isn't this all thanks to you, Your Highness?"

Dr. Ji already knows.

He was initially a little unhappy, thinking that the princess was really meddling in other people's business, why did she have to save the Prince of Lin's people!

However, after seeing these medicinal herbs, he realized that his perspective was not broad enough.

A human life, in exchange for these medicinal herbs, is worth a thousand times more.

"He actually dared to do that," Yun Si said with a smile.

This was an unexpected surprise.

It seems that his feelings for Princess Lin are indeed beyond doubt.

He said it would be a waste to keep these medicines in his possession, and it would be better to give them to someone who truly understands medicine.

Doctor Ji snorted coldly: "He does have some insight."

Yun Si detected a hint of pride in those words.

Is Dr. Ji proud of her?

"By the way, Your Highness, I wish to become your apprentice and learn poison from you."

Doctor Ji said earnestly, "If anyone else in the manor is poisoned in the future, we can't all rely on the Princess. If the Princess teaches me, I can share the burden with her."

Yun Si saw through his little scheme at a glance.

“If you want to learn, I can teach you, but forget about becoming my apprentice. In terms of medical skills, Doctor Ji is far more skilled than me. How could I be worthy of being your master?”

"Your Highness is too modest."

After chatting for a few minutes, Dr. Ji left.

But he wasn't joking; the very next day he actually came to learn how to concoct poisons from Yun Si.

With Doctor Ji's help, Yun Si felt much more at ease.

Some minor steps were all handed over to Dr. Ji.

Time flies.

Before we knew it, it was Mid-Autumn Festival.

The night before, Huyan Zheng, the seventh prince of Northern Yan, and the fourteenth princess arrived in the capital.

Just as he had said, he arrived just in time to attend the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet of the Qin royal family.

Yun Si went to the city gate tower to wait for Marquis Yongyi and his party, but instead, she waited for the Northern Yan delegation first.

The people all lined both sides of the street, watching the Northern Yan people with curiosity.

Yun Si stood in the crowd and looked towards the delegation.

The Northern Yan delegation's caravan was a grand affair, with the Seventh Prince and the Fourteenth Princess's carriages followed by more than a dozen cargo wagons.

According to reports, the Seventh Prince came to the Great Qin with great sincerity, intending to sign a peace treaty with the Great Qin. Therefore, he brought many valuable gifts.

The carriage made a dull rolling sound on the bluestone slabs.

As the carriage ahead moved forward, a slender, jade-like hand suddenly emerged from behind the curtain and gently lifted it.

Yun Si stood in the crowd, her gaze fixed on the carriage.

She wanted to see who this Gao Zheng really was.

She couldn't recall when she had met this person all these days.

However, the man in the carriage seemed to have known she was there all along; when Yun Si looked over, he looked right back at her.

The moment their eyes met, a figure suddenly flashed through Yun Si's mind.

It was him!
