Yunhe roughly understood why her master did this; if she was going to marry an unreliable man, she had to find a way out for herself in advance.
That damned War King! I thought he would treat his master well, but now he seems to be a coward. She looked at her master with pity. He had finally escaped the tiger's den of the Qian family, only to fall into the dragon's pool of the royal family. She had to help her master improve himself as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, she suddenly remembered something: "Master, didn't you want a place to train? Your cultivation level isn't high right now. Actually, there's a forest behind that mass grave on the outskirts of the city. There are low-level spirit beasts there, which would be perfect for you to practice."
That grove of trees near the mass grave?
Qian Youxue immediately remembered that this was the place where that certain demon had killed the Ghost Bull. At first, Wu Xie had mentioned that there were relatively low-level spirit beasts in that place, but the ones she encountered that day were not low-level compared to her.
With such a record that surpasses the level of combat, I wonder if it will allow me to improve my martial arts skills even faster?
With a bold idea in mind, she blinked her beautiful big eyes and stared at Yunhe for a while.
Yunhe felt a chill run down her spine from his gaze and said timidly, "Miss, you haven't come up with another bad idea, have you?"
"No, no, hehehe..." Qian Youxue was certain that Yunhe didn't know about the dangers of that place, so it was better not to say anything to avoid causing too much worry and preventing her from truly gaining experience.
"Can I go?" Mei'er also wanted to go and gain some experience. Back in the Qian family, as a maid, she never had such an opportunity.
“Great!” Yunhe agreed wholeheartedly.
"No way!" Qian Youxue thought of those high-level spirit beasts. Although Mei'er was of a higher level than her, she was not as agile as her, so she blurted out.
Yunhe looked at her master, certain that her master was hiding something from her. But, that forest on the outskirts of the city, she used to often go there with the young master to gather herbs and train. The beasts there were all spirit beasts they could handle, and she could even protect her master and Mei'er.
call……
Feeling a little guilty under Yun He's probing gaze, Qian Youxue could only stammer, "I'm worried that besides spirit beasts, there are many poisonous things in that place. Sister Mei'er isn't as good at poisons as we are, is she?"
"That's true, but don't worry, Master. If Sister Mei'er wants to go, Yunhe will protect her well." Yunhe thought her master's words made sense and made a solemn promise.
Upon hearing this, Mei jumped up happily and hugged Yunhe's arm like a little sparrow: "Thank you, Yunhe. Yunhe is the best. Don't worry, Master, I will be careful too."
Um!
Left with no other choice, Qian Youxue had to agree.
Knock knock knock!
There was a knock on the door, and Leng Qing's voice came from outside: "Your Highness, the Prince requests your presence."
"I know." Qian Youxue's eyes darted around. She had only just returned and was being called back again. Could it be that she wasn't coming back?
Thinking of the purpose of her trip, her eyes lit up, and she quickly put on her shoes and ran out the door.
Leng Qing originally thought that the princess would take several hours like she had with Granny Zhou last time, but as soon as she finished speaking, she saw the princess rush out of the room, which made her a little flustered.
Qian Youxue, abandoning her usual cold attitude towards the servants of the Prince's mansion, asked with a smile, "Leng Qing, has Mr. Bu Yu returned? Did he bring back anything good?"
Well……
Leng Qing paused for a moment, then shook her head blankly.
"What does shaking your head mean? Does it mean Mr. Bu Yu is coming back so I can go and see the medicinal herbs?" Qian Youxue stared at Leng Qing expectantly.
Seeing the disappointment in the princess's eyes, Leng Qing felt somewhat displeased. Had the princess forgotten her status? Why was she only thinking of Mr. Bu Yu?
Seeing that Leng Qing didn't speak, Qian Youxue turned around in disappointment and was about to walk inside, but Leng Qing pulled her back: "Your Majesty, although it's not that Mr. Buyu has returned, that person is still by Mr. Buyu's side."
"Wuya is also an option. That kid has been following Buyu for so long, he must have some good stuff on him." Reminded of this, Qian Youxue turned her attention to Wuya.
Yunhe felt an urge to facepalm and looked at Leng Qing with great sympathy.
Leng Qing shook her head again and decided to be clear: "It's not Wuya, it's a girl named Song Tian'er. She is considered Mr. Buyu's last disciple."
Qian Youxue frowned and stopped in her tracks. Her eyes darted around, showing some interest in this female disciple.
Seeing the princess withdraw her foot, Leng Qing felt a little anxious. Yun He, who sympathized with Leng Qing, chimed in, "My lady, with Mr. Bu Yu's medical skills being so superb, his apprentice must possess some excellent skills."
"Yes, yes, yes, how can you be a good apprentice if you don't have some skills? Let's go, let's go take a look!" Qian Youxue was obsessed with medicinal herbs and would never miss any opportunity.
"Uh...yes, yes, yes...Miss Tian'er doesn't look like a girl from a poor family." Leng Qing felt that this was really shameless, but if she didn't invite the princess over, she would be the one to suffer, so she could only try to fool her over first.
Even Leng Qing said so, so Qian Youxue became even more interested in Song Tian'er and strode towards someone's villa.
Leng Qing exhaled a breath of stale air, the stone she had been holding in mid-air fell to the ground, and she looked at Yun He gratefully. Yun He returned her a faint smile.
...
“Your Highness, you can’t overexert yourself. If there’s anything you need to do, you can simply ask Leng Xue and the others to do it.” Song Tian’er sat by the bed and took Xuan Mingye’s pulse, her face full of worry.
Zhou Mama, who had come along, said before Xuan Mingye could even speak, "Miss Tian'er is right. Let Leng Xue and the others handle everything. You need to take care of your health now."
Normally, Xuan Mingye would never allow other women to get close to him, not even his most capable disciple. Whenever the disciple entered the manor, the disciple would only watch from the sidelines without taking any action.
He awkwardly withdrew his hand and looked at Leng Xue with a bad expression. Leng Xue stepped forward and gestured for Song Tian'er to sit down on the chair next to him.
Seeing the prince's attitude towards Song Tian'er, Granny Zhou frowned slightly and said a few words of praise: "Your Highness, Miss Tian'er is Mr. Bu Yu's favorite student. You can't possibly listen to what she says, can you?"
"I enjoy listening to the Princess Consort speak. If there's nothing else, you may all leave!" Xuan Mingye said coldly, clearly not missing the underlying meaning in Zhou Mama's words. Even Song Tian'er had been sent to the Prince's residence; this showed just how far the conflict between Zhou Mama and that little fox had progressed.
Strange, hasn't Uncle Long explained things to Granny Zhou yet?
Thinking about it, he casually asked, "Cold-blooded, is Uncle Long at home?"
