Jiang Yu was a reckless person. When he heard Jiang Yao say this, he immediately reached out to pull her.
"Okay, go and explain it to Grandpa, right now."
Jiang Yao's brows knitted together, and he blurted out two words: "Let go."
The cold warning tone made Jiang Yu stunned.
She let go of his hand in a daze, staring at Jiang Yao with wide eyes: "Jiang Yao, are you possessed? How dare you talk to me like that?"
Jiang Yao withdrew his hand and straightened his sleeves that were tangled by her pulling. "Didn't you say you were going to Grandpa's place? Let's go. I also want to ask Grandpa if it's appropriate for a younger sister to say something like looking for a man to her."
Although Jiang Ao doesn't love Jiang Yao very much, he is still a very upright person, at least he is not partial to anyone. Jiang Yao is not afraid to meet him at all.
"Jiang Yao, you."
Jiang Yu was speechless for a moment. They didn't know how Jiang Yao was rescued by the He family last night, but since this incident had happened, as long as Jiang Yao said that he was not at the He family last night, he would be ruined.
But the Jiang Yao in front of him seemed like a different person. He didn't speak as impetuously as before, but in an organized manner.
"Was Second Sister really at He's house last night?"
Jiang Xing kept asking, his eyes sharp as if he wanted to see through Jiang Yao.
This is too deep for a fourteen-year-old girl.
But the Jiang Yao in front of her was no longer the sixteen-year-old Jiang Yao. How could a twenty-five-year-old soul living in her be frightened by the little girl's methods?
"Third sister, don't you believe it?" She didn't answer, but asked back.
Jiang Xing stared at her for a long time, then looked away and said with a smile, "Oh, my sister and I are also worried about the second sister. Since the second sister was fine last night, there is no need to bother grandpa."
Jiang Xing is smart, but Jiang Yu is stupid, so she once again holds Jiang Yao's hand.
"No, I have to go to Grandpa today and explain everything clearly. Jiang Yao didn't come back all night. Who knows if she is really in He's house or out meeting a random man."
Jiang Yao could no longer bear it. She didn't want to cause trouble and would avoid it if possible, but if someone insisted on dragging her in and disgusting her, she would just ignore her and be rude.
She doesn't want to cause trouble, but she's not afraid of it.
Jiang Yao's eyes darkened, and he raised his hand and placed it on Jiang Yu's wrist, his fingers deftly stroking her pulse.
"Fourth sister, you're hurting me."
She screamed in pain and tried to break free, but suddenly she stumbled and her hand slipped from Jiang Yu's neck and lightly touched her waist.
These touches seemed normal during the struggle between Jiang Yao and Jiang Yu.
But Jiang Yu loosened his grip weakly, then raised his trembling hands in shock.
"Sister, my hands are weak."
After she said this in horror, she suddenly took two steps back, closed her eyes, and fell to the ground with her body going limp.
Jiang Xing was frightened and quickly hugged Jiang Yu on the ground and shouted, "Hurry up and find a doctor."
Jiang Yao stood aside and watched them leave with an indifferent expression.
Before leaving, Jiang Xing looked back at Jiang Yao. She always felt that Jiang Yu's fainting was a bit too strange, but Jiang Yao did nothing to cause the fainting right under her nose.
Now she just hopes that the doctor can tell her the reason. If it was poison, then she will have an excuse to go back and make trouble with Jiang Yao.
Jiang Yao sighed in his heart: I won't offend anyone unless they offend me, but you insist on provoking me. I should be thankful that I don't have a needle in my hand, otherwise Jiang Yu would have lost her arms and legs or would have been unable to leave today.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yao turned and looked at Xiaolan: "Xiaolan, do you have any silver needles at home?"
At noon, Xiaolan was worried and paced back and forth in the house.
Jiang Yao knew what she was worried about. She was afraid that if the doctor on Jiang Yu's side found out that it was poisoning or something, it would definitely be blamed on her.
But in comparison, Jiang Yao was much calmer. You know, she was the only successor of the Ghost Doctor. If this trick was discovered, her twenty years of studying medicine would have been in vain.
"Oh, I forgot something."
Xiaolan's shout almost caused Jiang Yao to poke himself with the silver needle that he was about to put away.
"What are you shouting about? You scared me to death."
However, this simple complaint scared Xiaolan so much that she knelt down again.
"This slave deserves to die. This slave deserves to die."
Jiang Yao was speechless. Is she so scary?
I just looked at myself in the mirror carefully. The original owner is a standard classical beauty, with a petite and pretty figure. She doesn't look like a superhuman who wants to eat people, right?
Alas, it’s all because of the original owner’s suicidal character, which ruined his popularity.
"Get up, I don't blame you."
Xiaolan trembled as she climbed to her feet, shrinking back like a mouse seeing a cat. "I really didn't mean it, Miss, please don't be angry."
Jiang Yao didn't want to be the cat, but he couldn't change his mind anytime soon, so he quickly changed the subject: "You just said you forgot something? What was it?"
Xiaolan was immediately excited: "Miss, have you forgotten that you have to go to the palace tonight to participate in the Saint's election?"
A saintly election? Sounds familiar.
Jiang Yao searched his mind for a long time, and the clearest memories were all about the prince. He seemed to not care about anything else.
The original owner was really a big nymphomaniac, there was no hope for him.
"Oh, running for maid." She pretended to know, paused, and then said, "I suddenly don't want to go."
Xiaolan was shocked: "Miss, isn't this where you want to go the most? This is the best opportunity to get close to the prince."
Jiang Yao was still trying to think of what kind of saint she was, but he had no impression for a long time.
The original owner really didn't care about anything else except the prince.
"I'm the second daughter of the Taifu Mansion, a daughter of a wealthy family. Why would I choose a saint?"
Xiaolan looked at Jiang Yao with increasingly strange eyes.
"Miss," she called out tentatively, "Are you feeling unwell?"
After spending a day together, Jiang Yao had already figured out Xiaolan's temper. She was a sincere girl who didn't play tricks on others, so it shouldn't be difficult to fool her.
"My parents' death anniversary is approaching, and I've been missing them so much these past few days that I haven't had any interest in anything else. I really don't have any impression of this saint you mentioned."
Jiang Yao was talking nonsense in a serious tone, but he actually felt uneasy. The anniversary of the death of his parents was still three months away, and it was really awkward to be sad now.
But Xiaolan believed it. She wiped away her tears with heartache and began to explain the matter of the saint.
Although Zhao was a big country, there were always bigger countries outside of it. To the south was an even bigger country called Yutian. Yutian would send envoys every hundred years to pray for Zhao's national destiny. When they came, they would select four saints from Zhao to serve by their side.
But the messenger's saint is not an ordinary saint. The emperor rewards the family of the chosen saint with a hundred acres of fertile land, gold, silver and other treasures, and promotes them to higher positions. The next three generations will be able to become officials without having to take imperial examinations.
The most important thing is that these four saints can go to the Kingdom of Yutian when the envoy leaves.
Yutian Kingdom is a magical place. Jiang Yao doesn’t know how magical it is, but from Xiaolan’s longing expression when she spoke, he guessed that this Yutian Kingdom in Zhao State can be said to be a fairyland-like place.
All birds and beasts can open their mouths to speak, and some people can live forever. What they eat, drink and use are all different from those in Zhao State.
All in all, Yutian Kingdom is a very mysterious place.
