Po Yue rummaged in her bosom and pulled out a pill, which she then put in her mouth.
Then, he activated his internal energy.
A thick white mist began to rise on his face, gradually thinning...
Finally, a baby face with a slightly round face and delicate, pretty features was revealed.
Her skin was so smooth and flawless that you couldn't see any pores; it was porcelain white. Her eyebrows were thick, her eyes were big and bright, her nose was high and delicate, and her lips were thin and shapely.
A perfectly placed wisp of dragon whiskers floated on his forehead...
Although she is already twenty-eight or twenty-nine years old, she looks as young as eighteen or nineteen.
Sure enough, none of the bodyguards are ugly!
Anyone you pick out, whether in terms of physique or appearance, is superior to the young masters of prestigious families.
With her figure and appearance, Po Yue was the most popular among the wives of officials in the capital!
Cute and handsome, he's instantly likable.
No wonder everyone in the Dark Guard camp dotes on Po Yue.
She's so cute, yet so aloof; there's a striking contrast that makes her endearing.
If we don't pamper him, who will we pamper?
It would be such a waste to hide such a beautiful face.
Yuan Yao smiled and said, "Po Yue, I command you that from today onwards, you are no longer allowed to cover your face with black mist."
Also, there's no need to wear those pitch-black bodyguard uniforms anymore.
Wear whatever you like.
Po Yue: "..."
After a long pause, Po Yue coldly asked, "Did you take the wrong medicine?"
Yuan Yao tilted her head: "Didn't you give me the medicine?"
Could it be that you deliberately gave me the wrong medicine to get revenge on me?
Po Yue: "..."
In Po Yue's large, dark eyes, his expression softened slightly.
He asked, "Why did you make me remove the black mist and change into a bodyguard uniform? Do you despise me and no longer want me to protect you?"
“How could I not want you?” Yuan Yao looked at Po Yue with clear eyes: “I want you to wear beautiful robes, carry a money bag, and swagger off to buy meat.”
I wish that when you pass by your favorite shop, someone would call you "Young Master Yue" in a very open and generous way.
I want you to bask in the sun more, and stop being afraid of ghosts...
I said I would take care of you in your old age, and I will never break my promise.
I've saved up a lot of money, more than my father and I can ever spend. So, I want to buy you both nice clothes, wine, and meat.
Po Yue: "..."
He pursed his thin lips, his eyes flickered, and he asked coldly and slowly, "Is this really okay for me?"
Can!
sure!
Yuan Yao sized him up: "Po Yue, have your senior brothers never told you that you are good-looking and cute?"
Po Yue: "..."
He said coldly, "How can you say men are cute?"
Yuan Yao: "?"
Po Yue continued, "I am your elder, so I won't hold it against you."
What's there to fuss about?
Why can't we say he's cute?
Poyue's baby face is really pretty and cute!
Before Yuan Yao could speak, Po Yue added, "Your Majesty's letter has arrived. Also, Can Feng has sent back a message."
Um?
Yuan Yao's eyes lit up: "Quickly, let me see Father's letter!"
Father has been gone for several days, and today, finally, there is news!
happy!
After taking the medicine, Yuan Yao's energy and spirit have improved considerably.
She sat upright on the bed, looking exceptionally devout.
Po Yue took out an envelope, opened it, and handed her the letter.
Yuan Yao opened it eagerly.
The letter contained only a few lines of vigorous and powerful characters—
Wear warm clothes in this cold weather, eat meals on time, Father is doing well, don't worry about me.
Yuan Yao held the letter and read it over and over again.
It's definitely Daddy's handwriting!
Seeing that Yuan Yao seemed to want to read the letter through a hole, Po Yue crossed her arms and said, "Master sent me a message saying that the Prince is being taken good care of, so you don't need to worry."
Furthermore, they currently plan to travel to Nanxi Town, which is separated from the State of Chu by only a river.
Nanxi Town?
Yuan Yao secretly memorized the name.
Then she asked, "What about Canfeng? What did he say?"
Po Yue said, "Can Feng said that he has found out about the tigress you asked him to investigate."
Yicheng is prosperous, with many wealthy people.
Once people have money, they inevitably find ways to flaunt it...
There are many ways to show off.
Some kept handsome men for others to play with; others built lavish gardens and houses for pleasure...
One of the wealthy businessmen had a passion for collecting various animals.
For example, pythons as thick as water buckets, bears, leopards, white tigers...
One year, he spent a lot of money to buy a lion that had been transported from an unknown place.
One day, after getting drunk, the wealthy businessman was persuaded to drive a lion and a white tiger to a park, wanting to watch the two animals fight.
To everyone's surprise, when the wealthy merchant awoke the next day, he found that the lion and the white tiger were not fighting, but were actually locked in a fierce struggle...
The wealthy businessman was both surprised and amazed. Not only did he not separate the male lion and the female tiger, but he also sat outside the garden every day to watch them.
Unexpectedly, more than three months later, the tigress gave birth to a cub that looked like a lion, and the wealthy businessman was so frightened that he fell ill on the spot.
From then on, the wealthy businessman suffered a series of misfortunes...
The wealthy merchant, in a state of extreme fright, abandoned the tigress's cubs on the mountain...
After hearing Po Yue finish speaking, Yuan Yao's expression was complicated: "That little one is Nian Gao."
Unexpectedly, the rice cake really was a liger...
It seems that Tangyuan is destined never to be a father!
Po Yue looked at Yuan Yao: "Can Feng said that Niangao is three years old this year."
Three years old...
No wonder the glutinous rice ball followed it.
The rice cake has grown up!
But, the size of the rice cake really doesn't resemble that of a sexually mature liger...
It is probably related to the fact that it was abandoned at birth.
It's a miracle that it survived and grew this big...
Yuan Yao thought for a moment and said to Po Yue, "Send a message to Can Feng and tell him to withdraw the Imperial Guards that Xie Zhi sent back to the capital first."
I want to go pick up Tangyuan myself. After I do, we'll go to Nanxi Town to find Daddy!
"What about the Emperor's funeral?" Po Yue asked. "Will you be able to get back in time?"
"Let's just see how things go." Yuan Yao pursed her lips. "I'm sure even if I don't come back, the Emperor won't blame me."
Po Yue nodded: "Mm."
Yuan Yao glanced at the sky: "Let's get some rest first. We'll set off for Yicheng after nightfall."
Night has fallen?
Po Yue's expression cracked slightly: "Wouldn't it be better to set off tomorrow morning?"
Tomorrow morning?
Running in the morning, are you afraid others won't know?
Yuan Yao chuckled softly: "Po Yue, are you... still afraid of ghosts? If you're really scared, why don't you..."
Po Yue coldly interrupted her: "That's not true!"
Yuan Yao gave a half-smile: "That's good."
She beckoned Jing'er and Aruo to come in: "I have to leave the palace. If anyone comes looking for me while I'm gone, just say that I'm seriously ill and can't get up, understand?"
I'll come back to you after I've finished my business.
Aruo and Jing'er were stunned.
Jing'er pouted, about to cry: "Princess, do you not want me anymore?"
Yuan Yao sighed, "When did I ever say I didn't want you anymore?"
"Then why did you abandon me?" Jing'er accused.
Yuan Yao: "..."
After thinking it over, Yuan Yao decided to make up an excuse.
She sighed: "Tangyuan has been missing for more than ten days. I don't know where she went. I wonder if she's been beaten and eaten..."
I've lost my father, but I can't be without tangyuan (sweet rice balls)...
I must go there myself and bring the glutinous rice balls back.
Tangyuan, my tangyuan, boohoo..."
As she spoke, Yuan Yao forced out two lines of tears.
