Mrs. Dong forced a smile after a while and said, "I have always been a straight talker, but I didn't expect...the county lady likes to joke so much."
Tang Shiyue still smiled and said: "When I'm in a good mood, this is a joke. When I'm in a bad mood, this is not a joke."
She brushed her sleeves slowly and said, "I heard that some people are straightforward and honest, and I also settle old scores with different people. Wei Bo, do you think we should settle old scores during the New Year?"
"Yes!" Wei Bo agreed with her: "The end of the year is the time to settle accounts."
Dong was completely afraid to speak.
This person is not Yan Chengyuan. She still calls him brother. She can even send the old princess to the family temple. She... hehe.
She was very honest the rest of the time.
Tang Shiyue expressed her satisfaction.
Yan Chengyuan's personal soldiers came to call her, and Tang Shiyue went in and finally met the legendary old prince.
It is said that the old prince also spent half his life in military service, but at this time, his legs were broken and he was covered with a thick blanket, but when he sat in the chair, his back was still straight.
...
...
His hair and beard were all white, and his eyebrows were as thick as a knife. His face looked more majestic than Yan Chengyuan, but his skin and flesh were a little loose, making him look like a hero in his twilight years, which was a pity.
Tang Shiyue has always liked this kind of military-type figure, so she walked up to him and greeted him respectfully.
The old prince looked at her for a long while before saying, "Yes, she looks like someone from my Yan family."
Tang Shiyue smiled.
Yan Chengyuan used his eyes to warn her to restrain herself.
The old prince didn't care and said, "Aren't you afraid of me?"
Tang Shiyue asked back: "Why should I be afraid of you?"
The old prince pondered for a moment and nodded: "I am old now. When I was young, I was dressed in military uniform, holding a sword and riding a horse. Wherever I went, even strong men dared not say a word."
Tang Shiyue said: "That's not fear, that's respect for the hero. The soldier's knife is pointed at the enemy, and the soldier's bravery is to protect us. Why should we be afraid of someone who blocks the knife for us?"
The old prince paused, then smiled: "Well said."
He waved his hand and said, "Go back!"
Tang Shiyue bowed again and walked out.
She waited in the corridor for a while, and a man came over to greet her: "My nephew Zhou Qin, I meet my junior master uncle."
Tang Shiyue didn't recognize all the disciples of Jishidiang, so he nodded and asked him quietly: "My grandfather, what disease does he have?"
Of course I couldn't tell anyone else, but she is my uncle and a relative of the old prince.
Zhou Qin said softly: "The prince's health is mainly dizziness and hyperactivity, but there is no serious illness."
He hesitated for a moment and said softly, "The key is a heart disease. This great hero on the battlefield, a man with unparalleled strength and courage, has suddenly become a useless person, needing to be carried around every day. No one can bear it..."
He sighed and said in an even lower voice: "The old prince is still practicing archery every day until now!"
Tang Shiyue nodded, and as they were chatting, Yan Chengyuan came out.
Tang Shiyue followed him out and asked, "Can't we bring grandpa out?"
Yan Chengyuan glanced at her with a warm look in his eyes and said, "This is Prince An's Mansion!" He paused and said, "Your grandfather praised you for your sharp eyes and upright heart."
Tang Shiyue was very happy.
After leaving Prince An's Mansion, she said directly to Yan Chengyuan: "Dad, go and get busy."
"Well," Yan Chengyuan said, "I have something else to do. Don't run around. Come back home early."
Tang Shiyue responded, and after watching him ride away on his horse, she turned around and went to the workshop. She then drew a picture of a wheelchair and asked them to make it overnight.
When she returned home, she called her nephew Zhang Xiaocheng over.
Last time, Zhang Xiaocheng was sent by her to see the old prince, and he knew his situation very well.
Tang Shiyue talked to him for a long time, and her conclusion was... The old prince's current illness is mainly high blood pressure, which is actually an old age disease. Apart from that, his health is actually good. The reason why he is depressed and a little moody is mainly because of his heart disease.
Moreover, he practices archery every day and is not afraid of the wind, so there is no need to lock him up in a yard.
Tang Shiyue asked someone to buy some medicinal herbs and first prepared two medicinal liquors for treating high blood pressure, one from Rehmannia glutinosa and the other from Eucommia ulmoides.
Then, early the next morning, when the wheelchair was made, she once again displayed her decisive and swift (and painstaking) Yue style and took her people to Prince An's Mansion.
In Prince An's mansion, the soldiers guarding the old prince's yard were Yan Chengyuan's personal soldiers, and they did not dare to block her. She pushed the wheelchair in directly and said with a grin, "Grandfather, I'll take you out to play!"
The old prince looked up at her and asked, "Who asked you to come?"
"No one called me," Tang Shiyue said, "I didn't tell my foolish father, nor my timid mother. I came here secretly."
The old prince glared at her and said, "How daring of you!"
"That's right," Tang Shiyue said with a smile, "After all, she is from the Yan family, your granddaughter, so of course she is bold."
The old prince sneered and said, "No!"
"Why?" Tang Shiyue asked, "Just because you broke a leg, you don't even dare to go out and see people?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was so frightened that their souls flew away and they fell to their knees on the ground.
The old prince was furious and smashed the table with one palm: "You bastard! Get out! Get out of here!"
Tang Shiyue didn't care and she didn't leave.
She pushed the wheelchair with one hand and turned back and forth in the room a few times: "Even though you don't have legs, you still have hands! You are still that brave and incomparable hero. There are so many people in this world with both hands and feet, how many of them can smash a table with a slap? How many of them have experienced such a big setback as a broken leg, but are still strong and never stop practicing martial arts?"
She looked at him quietly: "The first time I saw you, I saw your spirit and energy, and I knew that nothing in this world could defeat my grandfather, the great protector of Dayan. So I sent you the 'leg'. Do you dare to go out with me and show it to everyone, you, Prince An, are still standing!"
The old prince looked at her fiercely with a pair of eagle eyes.
She stared at him without blinking, her eyes clear and frank, without any retreat.
Then, under his gaze, she slowly raised the corners of her mouth: "Or maybe you don't dare..."
The old prince snorted coldly.
He said, "Little girl, don't try to provoke me! When I was playing these tricks, you didn't even exist in the world!"
Tang Shiyue said: "The method of provoking a general is to stimulate blood and bones. If you can't even be provoked, what kind of 'general' is that!"
She pushed the wheelchair over and put it next to the old prince's chair. "Grandfather, I think you will be locked up in this small courtyard for the rest of your life. You even look down on a little girl like me..."
This Lady of Enfu County is really bold and dares to say anything.
The soldiers in the yard bowed their heads to the ground and dared not say a word.
