"What do you mean by 'prosperity and adversity are shared'? Even if Shen Jiaojiao dies and your Prime Minister's Mansion is destroyed, it won't hurt my disciple in the slightest!"

"roll!"

A loud shout made Shen Yu spit out a mouthful of blood.

What's even more terrifying is the words that came out of his mouth.

It was like thunder in his ears, which made him suddenly wake up!

Yes, Shen Ruyi is no longer the same Shen Ruyi!

At that time, Shen Ruyi was the only daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion and the murderer of their mother. Her fate was in the hands of the Prime Minister's Mansion and depended on the honor and disgrace of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Even after getting married, she still needs the support and protection of her brothers to gain a foothold in her husband's family.

But now, she is the successor of Prajna Hall.

Southern Shaolin is her back.

She is Ziwei's lucky star.

The emperor has her back!

And this old beggar, even though he is dressed in rags and lives in a place where beggars gather, his martial arts skills... even if all the masters in the palace were combined, they would not be his match, right?

And his medical skills...

He is Shen Ruyi's master!

How terrible this is!

Shen Yu's face was burning. He covered his face and looked through the shabby wooden door to the girl standing under the eaves. He realized that she was no longer the little girl who could be manipulated so easily and could only chase after them crying "Daddy" and "Brother" after being injured, begging them to come back!

It's too far away, not a parallel distance.

The problem is the status.

Shen Ruyi's status had been raised by who knows how many levels when they were chasing after Shen Jiaojiao.

They thought Shen Ruyi was going to be snatched away from Shen Jiaojiao, and she didn't seem to be interested in her anymore.

When Shen Yu realized this, he felt as if his heart was hollowed out.

It was a complete feeling of loss that made him panic and scared.

"As one wishes……"

Through the door, Shen Yu called her name in a trembling voice, "Brother is sorry for what happened before, but now, can you say something for me?"

Shen Ruyi walked out the door and looked at him, "What does big brother want me to say?"

Shen Yu choked. He hoped Shen Ruyi would realize it.

But now she asked him back, did she need him to say it out loud before she could parrot it?

If he really said that, wouldn't the old beggar slap him to death?

Finally, he could only lower his eyes and said, "Nothing."

"Since there's nothing else, then you can go back first, big brother."

Shen Ruyi ordered them to leave.

The purpose of bringing Shen Yu here today has been achieved.

She just wanted to tell him that when she went out to set up her own business, the Prime Minister's Mansion had better not stop her.

Otherwise, it's not her who has an ugly face.

But the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Shen Yu got up, looked at her deeply, and staggered into the carriage.

He came today to ask for a prescription for Shen Jiaojiao.

He also came to win over the old beggar.

But he overestimated himself and the Prime Minister's Mansion, and underestimated the old beggar and Shen Ruyi, so now he is in complete defeat and feels like a thorn in his side.

He had to go back to his father immediately to discuss what to do next.

Shen Ruyi watched the carriage leave, then turned to look at the old beggar, "Master, thank you."

As he spoke, his eyes turned red.

The old beggar reached out and touched her head, pulled her into the house, and suddenly said something that surprised her, "Your mother and I are old acquaintances. I have no objection to her marrying Shen Cangyun, but I didn't expect Shen Cangyun to be such a piece of shit."

Shen Ruyi looked up in astonishment, "So, you are?"

The reason why the old beggar was so intent on protecting her and wanted to take her in as his apprentice suddenly seemed clear.

He is taking care of her for his mother!

Shen Ruyi's nose felt sore and she almost cried.

The old beggar pulled her to sit down, then looked at her and sighed, "Your mother and I grew up together, and I wanted to wait until she reached the age of marriage before proposing marriage, but I didn't expect that she fell in love with Shen Cangyun before she reached the age of marriage. When I came back from studying medicine, she had already married Shen Cangyun and followed him to the capital."

"It's too late to undo what has been done. I can only stay in the capital and protect her silently."

"But I didn't expect that she would go to Huangjue Temple and..." The old beggar said, his eyes red, "I was away on that day because of something. When I came back, she was already dead, leaving only a little girl like you."

"I originally thought that Shen Cangyun would favor you."

"After all, you are the only thought your mother has left."

But I didn’t expect…

Shen Ruyi remembered, "My mother is a woman from the south of the Yangtze River. After coming to the north, she had some difficulty acclimatizing. I heard people say before that she lost a lot of weight after coming here. And she was pregnant with me, so she really suffered a lot of injustice."

As he spoke, tears fell.

She had never seen her mother, only seen her in portraits.

She is gentle and quiet, with beautiful dimples at the corners of her mouth when she smiles.

She was an orphan since childhood. Due to the lack of love, she was particularly attached to her father and brothers, which led to the tragedy in her previous life.

Shen Ruyi lowered her head, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.

The old beggar reached out and pulled her into his arms, coaxing her softly, "I know you want to leave the Prime Minister's Mansion. Don't worry, Rong Yan and I will help you."

Speaking of Rong Yan, Shen Ruyi couldn't help but blush.

So he asked, "Between Master and His Highness the Ninth Prince..."

"It's an old friendship." The old beggar didn't say much, just reached out and wiped away her tears, "When the master gets old and dies, I will hand you over to him."

"He won't hurt you."

Shen Ruyi nodded, choking a little, "I will listen to Master."

If she had left the Prime Minister's Mansion earlier in her previous life and followed the old beggar, the ending would not have been like that.

But those things were already irreversible.

In this life, there is still time for everything.

Shen Ruyi took a deep breath, "Master, please teach me something new."

The old beggar gave her acupuncture again and explained the acupuncture point map to her. "Although doctors are kind-hearted, they are also ordinary people. If we repay evil with kindness, how can we repay kindness?"

"I will pass on the recipe for treating stomach cold to you, and I will also teach you acupuncture, but you cannot treat Shen Jiaojiao."

The old beggar looked at her and said, "That's her fate."

"You asked for it."

When Shen Ruyi looked up, she saw a hint of deep anger and hatred in his eyes. He only heard him say, "Everything in this world has cause and effect. If you get involved in the cause and effect of others, you will inevitably be entangled in this cause and effect, harming others and yourself."

Shen Ruyi only understood half of what he said, but still agreed, "Disciple will remember it."

In the afternoon, the old beggar taught her a set of "Ruoshui Sword Technique" and sorted out new contextual knowledge for her to take home and review.

In the blink of an eye, it was almost dark.

The old beggar stood up and said, "It's hard to walk outside. I'll take you back."

Shen Ruyi was about to say no when Han Jiang's voice came from the door, "Miss Shen, my prince is waiting for you at the door."

When Shen Ruyi looked up, she saw Rong Yan's carriage parked outside the door. There was a layer of snow on it. She didn't know how long they had been waiting.

Her heart suddenly ached, and she walked out quickly, lifted the curtain and asked, "Your Highness, when did you come?"

Are you frozen?
