I am such a fool. How could I let such a good opportunity slip away from my fingers?
Filled with regret, Li Jing asked, "Father, what should we do next?"
Prince Duan pondered for a moment and said, "Pick two hundred-year-old wild ginseng roots and send them to the Wei residence for me. Find out carefully whether Wei Yong's daughter is really well! Also, find time to continue to invite Master Lu to the brothel. Arrange whatever he likes for me. Make sure he has a good time and enjoys it!"
"Even if he wants to tear down the brothel, you have to cheer me on!"
Just as Prince Duan was scolding his son, Zi Yan's maid also hurried upstairs.
As soon as she entered the room, she couldn't wait to shout, "Saint Lady, I found out, guess who that person is!"
Zi Yan, who had just rested for a while, was still a little sleepy. Looking at her subordinates, she frowned slightly and said, "Keep your voice down. Do you want everyone to know my identity?"
The maid shrank back at her scolding, but soon she spoke in a suppressed, excited voice, "Lady Saint, I've found out the results of my investigation. The scoundrel who came today is actually the recently popular Master Lu!"
Zi Yan, who was originally lazy, raised her eyebrows unconsciously after hearing this and said, "It's actually him?!"
The maid nodded frantically, then said mysteriously, "And just now, something extraordinary happened! Do you know why Wei Yong personally came to the brothel to arrest someone?"
"Just say what you want to say, don't keep me in suspense!" Zi Yan frowned and looked very unhappy. She didn't know whether this emotion was directed at the little maid or if she was still angry at Lu Chen today.
The young maid also realized that she had gotten a little carried away. She shrank her neck and playfully stuck out her tongue, saying, "You may not believe this, but Wei Yong's daughter committed suicide by cutting her wrists. Due to excessive blood loss, the imperial doctors were helpless. In desperation, Wei Yong came here to ask Master Lu for help."
"Excessive blood loss is an extremely dangerous symptom. Many brothers in the Holy Church have died from excessive blood loss. Since the imperial doctors are helpless, that lecher is probably helpless too, right?"
The maid shook her head frantically and said, "Originally, everyone thought that even if Master Lu went there, there would be nothing he could do. But who would have thought that Master Lu would say it wasn't such a difficult task. I heard that he actually used the blood-for-life technique, forcibly adding the lifespan of some death row prisoners to Wei Yong's daughter."
"I heard that Wei Yong's daughter has woken up and even ate two bowls of rice and a plate of pork elbow. It seems that she is fine."
"How is this possible!" Zi Yan, who was originally leaning lazily on the bed, suddenly stood up, her eyes full of disbelief.
That's excessive blood loss! Imposing the lifespan of a death row inmate on someone else sounds like a fantasy.
Is there really such a magical spell in the world?
The little maid nodded frantically, like a chick pecking at rice. "Although I haven't seen Miss Wei in person, our insiders in the palace have relayed the news. According to the imperial physicians, Miss Wei is indeed no longer in danger of death."
"Also, news has come from the headquarters that the Saint's End Pill is indeed very effective. Those who took it have noticeably improved their physical condition. Some children were originally beyond saving, but their fevers immediately subsided after taking the Saint's End Pill. Lady Saint, if possible, should we obtain the formula for the Saint's End Pill? Or perhaps just kidnap that demonic Taoist priest?"
Zi Yan's eyes lit up, and she felt that her maid's suggestion was very constructive!
If that scoundrel really has such ability, tying him up will definitely be of great help to the future cause of the entire Holy Church!
"It's like searching high and low for something, only to find it without any effort! I never thought the person we'd been looking for would actually show up on our doorstep! Xing'er, take a copy of my visiting card to his house and tell him I'd like to invite him over for another get-together."
"Yes!" The maid nodded first, then said with some concern: "Lady Saint, this man is not easy to deal with. He is a scoundrel and a scoundrel. Shouldn't we think of a countermeasure first? What if he comes and makes a move again? I can't let you suffer any more!"
Speaking of the touching, Zi Yan's cheeks flushed. She glared at Xing'er fiercely and said, "Don't worry about things that shouldn't be your concern. This Saint Lady has seen many storms and waves. Is it possible that I can't deal with a little thief like this? Go and do your business!"
Xing'er was so scared that she shrank her neck and hurried out.
After everyone left, Zi Yan gritted her teeth and muttered to herself, "I didn't expect it to be such a big fish! Just wait, I'm going to squeeze every last bit of value out of you! You won't write lyrics for me, right? Then just wait and see how I'll make you work like a slave!"
