"A beast?" Sheng Linyuan disagreed: "I took good care of him yesterday, and brought him back safely today. I even helped him teach the Crown Prince a lesson and cleaned up the pharmacy. Is there any beast as kind as me?"
Finally, she added indignantly, "To be fair, am I not better than that Nan Yuan?"
Nan Yuan? Mo Qi lowered her eyes and thought about it carefully.
The woman, on the one hand, feigned pleading with the young master to do all sorts of things for her, and on the other hand, pretended not to understand the young master's intentions.
They accepted the gifts without hesitation, but even meeting and exchanging a few words was difficult, let alone taking care of the young master.
"Well... you're still the best."
As if he had won a battle, Sheng Linyuan was very satisfied, but the next moment, he heard Mo Qi's scream.
"Wait a minute! How do you know about Nan Yuan?!" (Д)
Sheng Linyuan pinched the bridge of his nose, wondering how Mo Qi had survived in the treacherous court.
A smile played on her lips as she continued to intimidate, "I not only know Nan Yuan, but I also know that you've taken a fancy to a male prostitute at the Manjiang Tower in the west of the city."
"It is said that he came from a poor family, was an excellent musician, and sold his art but not his body. He was a famous courtesan in the capital."
"You, you, you..." Mo Qi's face flushed red: "You investigated us!"
"..." Sheng Linyuan pinched his earlobe, feeling exhausted, and said, "Someone has impeached you! The memorial has already been sent to me, saying that you and your master went to a brothel together!"
"That……"
“I’ve already burned the memorial.” Sheng Linyuan lowered his eyes, looked at the broken medicine bowl on the ground, and said thoughtfully, “Now you can trust me, right? Take me to see the medicine your young master drank; I’m afraid there might be a problem.”
"Oh, please wait a moment." Mo Qi called out to the house, "Young Master, may I take him to see the medicine?"
Only after Si Jin agreed did Mo Qi respectfully gesture "please" to Sheng Linyuan.
Sheng Linyuan: "..."
… …
After the two left, Si Jin lazily sat up from the couch and instructed Xiao Yao to check Chen Zhiyu's system.
She got up and changed her clothes.
He casually tossed his clothes onto the chair, then sat back down at his desk and wrote down the pharmacy's losses from this incident.
If calculated at five times the amount, the loss would be 1,800 taels of gold.
Tomorrow at court, I will go to Shen Zhiyu to ask for money.
After writing this, staring at the slightly damp clothes on the bed, Si Jin's thoughts drifted back to what she had just seen, and a glint of light appeared in her eyes.
Outside, under the cover of a cloak and outer garment, that...
It was a unique kind of thrill.
Little Ayuan is getting better and better.
"Then...then you still resisted?" Xiao Yao ran back at the right time and asked without thinking.
What do you know? The more I resist, the worse he becomes.
Si Jin placed the little tiger on the table, lowered her eyes and asked: Why did you come back so soon?
"Sir, something's wrong." Xiao Yao held up her dark blue system panel: "It seems that Shen Zhiyu's broken system recently malfunctioned."
[On your first court session, I could still sense its data; it was a normal, overpowered system.]
But now, I can't scan any information from that broken system; the only thing I found is a tiny bit.
Si Jin stared at the two words on the system panel: Divine Soul?
Yes, that lousy system seems to have been tampered with by someone after we arrived.
Although my soul is shattered, I can still sense the presence of gods. My lord, do you think it might be the Puppet Master's world...?
Did that wisp of the Heavenly Lord's escaped soul follow us here?
Si Jin's expression turned serious: "Tomorrow, I will go and see for myself."
That old beast, he knows he didn't have enough killing in the Puppet Master world, so he's rushing to deliver his own heads to make him happy.
How could he not crush that soul into nothingness, so that he could atone for that old beast's relentless pursuit?
Meanwhile, in the pharmacy, Sheng Linyuan stared at Si Jin's prescription with a gloomy look in his eyes: "This one has a problem."
