After watering the stream, Lin Xiuyan was afraid that Ye Junfei would beat her, so she lightly leaped to the other side of the stream.
She winked at him: "This isn't nonsense, Ye Junfei, I genuinely think you're a great person."
She was afraid he would beat her, so she ran away as fast as she could.
Ye Junfei reached out and wiped his face, a joy he had never felt before bursting forth in his heart.
He always knew that she was somewhat cautious in his presence.
Because of this cautiousness, she was always a little reserved. Sometimes, even when she was holding her in her arms, she felt like she was far away.
He had seen Xu Qianting laughing and joking around, and seeing them get along so relaxed together, he felt both envious and jealous.
Even though she walked away smiling, he felt she was so close to him.
She is full of life, cute and charming.
With a light tap of his feet, he moved swiftly and leaped to her side, pulling her into his arms.
Just as Lin Xiuyan was about to speak, his fingertip lightly touched her face, and the water that had been on his fingertip splashed onto her face.
She gasped softly, then nuzzled her face against him: "I take back what I just said, you're a complete bad person!"
Ye Junfei gently pressed his forehead against hers and whispered, "How can this be considered bad? You haven't experienced enough of a man's badness."
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
She always felt that he was implying something else.
Ye Junfei smiled and let go of her, then took her hand and said, "I'll take you somewhere."
"Where to?" Lin Xiuyan asked.
Ye Junfei smiled and said, "You'll know when you get there."
Lin Xiuyan was a little curious, but she found that he was leading her further and further astray, and finally stopped in front of a tomb.
The grave was spotless, without a single weed.
There is a tombstone on the grave, but there is no name on it, only the words: "May I be with the bright moon."
Lin Xiuyan looked at Ye Junfei, who said to her, "Kowtowing to Mother Consort!"
Lin Xiuyan wasn't too surprised. Together with Ye Junfei, they earnestly kowtowed four times in front of the monument.
After kowtowing, Ye Junfei said softly, "Mother, this is my wife, Xiuyan."
"She's a bit of a worry, just like Qingwan, but she's a very good woman. If you were still alive, you would definitely like her."
Lin Xiuyan retorted, "Mother, don't listen to his nonsense. My parents always say that I am the most well-behaved child in the world."
Ye Junfei laughed and said, "Even if you go up to the sky and break a hole in it, your parents will still praise you for doing a good job."
Lin Xiuyan made a face at him and asked Ye Junfei, "Why wasn't Mother buried in the royal mausoleum? Why doesn't she have a tombstone?"
Ye Junfei replied, "Before she gave birth to me and Qingwan, she discovered that the old bastard had broken his vow when he married her and had an affair with the old witch."
"She then went to her fifth uncle and said that if anything happened to her, she should be buried in a beautiful place with clear waters and lush mountains, not in the same grave as the old man who died."
"But she was, after all, the rightful Princess of Pingnan, and it would be against the rules not to bury her in the royal mausoleum, so my fifth uncle stole her body and buried it here."
"She loved the moon in the sky most when she was alive. Her fifth uncle was afraid that she would be disturbed, so he did not carve her name, but carved this sentence for her instead."
From his few words, Lin Xiuyan could sense that the former Princess Consort of Pingnan was a woman of extremely strong character.
She bowed to the tombstone again: "My mother was too lenient with that scumbag and bitch back then."
Ye Junfei looked at her and saw that her expression was full of seriousness.
He then said, "People say that Mother Consort's behavior is somewhat unorthodox. If she thinks this way, Mother Consort will be very happy."
Lin Xiuyan asked, "Who is Fifth Uncle?"
Ye Junfei replied, "My fifth uncle is my mother's sworn brother. He is the fifth child in the family and is both a teacher and a friend to me."
"When I went to the capital as a hostage, I was still very young. If it weren't for my fifth uncle protecting me, I would probably be dead by now."
"You're such a clever kid, you won't die so easily." A slightly aged voice came from behind.
Lin Xiuyan recognized the voice. She turned around abruptly and saw a man who looked to be in his forties standing behind them.
The man wore a faded Taoist robe, and his hair was tied high on his head and secured diagonally with a wooden hairpin.
With his refined and upright demeanor, he stood on the country road, exuding an air of otherworldly elegance.
Lin Xiuyan looked at the man in front of her in disbelief.
Ye Junfei called out softly, "Fifth Uncle, this is Xiuyan."
The man smiled and looked at Lin Xiuyan, asking, "Girl, why are you looking at me like that? Have you seen me before?"
Lin Xiuyan quickly shook her head: "I just feel that you have an otherworldly air about you, which seems a bit unreal."
This man was none other than the Medical Sage who had taught Lin Xiuyan all her medical skills in her previous life.
Her encounter with the Sage of Medicine in her past life was extremely fortuitous. At the time, she was critically injured and on the verge of death; it was the Sage of Medicine who saved her. (M.cascoo.net)
After that, she shamelessly followed the medical sage and learned medicine from him.
The Sage of Medicine was extremely strict in accepting disciples. Although she was intelligent, she was already old at the time, lacked a foundation, and was tainted with a violent temper. She did not meet the Sage of Medicine's standards for accepting disciples at all, but he made an exception and accepted her as his disciple.
She was smug about the fact that in her previous life, the medical sage had made an exception and accepted her as his disciple.
Looking back now, it's likely that Ye Junfei was behind her encounter with the Medical Sage and his taking her as his disciple.
It was only then that she realized she had many misunderstandings about Ye Junfei in her past life.
The two seemed like mortal enemies at the time, but she didn't know what deep affection he was hiding beneath that seemingly irreconcilable exterior.
The Sage of Medicine laughed and turned to Ye Junfei, saying, "This girl's personality is quite interesting."
Ye Junfei smiled and said, "What I chose is naturally the best."
The medical sage nodded: "Mutual affection is the best."
After he finished speaking, he walked to the tombstone, reached out and gently touched it, and sighed: "The hardest thing in this world is mutual love."
"Yiyi, over the years I've had some regrets, regrets about being too arrogant when I was young. If only I had..."
He stopped there and turned to look at Ye Junfei, saying, "I know about Ye Jingxian's matter. You did a good job."
"Ye Yunlie came looking for me, but I ignored him."
Ye Yunlie is the name of the Prince of Pingnan.
Ye Junfei said calmly, "Fifth Uncle, I think you can pay attention to him."
The Sage of Medicine looked at him and asked, "Why?"
Ye Junfei's expression was cold, and his peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly: "Whether you give them hope and then crush it with your own hands, or take the opportunity to take back what they owe you, I think it's all good."
The Sage of Medicine sighed softly, "That does sound somewhat reasonable."
"To be honest, I don't really want to go to the Prince of Pingnan's mansion; that place is too dirty."
Ye Junfei said calmly, "Fifth Uncle, you taught me that one should always look forward."
"Compared to obsessive revenge, rational planning not only brings happiness but also yields better results."
