Monkey mask!
When Eighty saw the monkey mask, his eyes lit up in excitement. This was something he had been looking forward to for a long time. He immediately took it out and put it on his face!
Like a child.
Luo Yang pushed him out of the room and said to Ji Yunshu, "Rest well."
Then, he left.
Ji Yunshu sat alone in the room, and it was much quieter.
Outside, Eighty happily put the monkey mask on his face. "Big brother, you're the best. I thought about this monkey mask for a long time, and I finally bought it."
"I knew you would like it."
"Of course I like it!"
The next moment, Luo Yang suppressed his excitement and said with a serious expression, "Alright, alright. You can play later. I need you to do something now."
Eighty asked, "Big brother, tell me! I'm willing to do anything. "
Luo Yang handed him the bag of bird's nest tied on his belt and said seriously, "Go quickly and ask the kitchen staff to cook the bird's nest. You must keep a close eye on them. This is the best bird's nest. Don't let them switch it and use the inferior one to confuse us!"
"Bird's nest? Big brother, where did you get it? "Eighty was shocked.
"I bought it. Miss Ji's body isn't good right now, so she needs to eat some bird's nest to nourish her body. Otherwise, what if she dies one day? We still have to take care of her funeral! "Although Luo Yang's words were vicious, he was still worried.
Eighty didn't understand his true intentions. He only thought that Luo Yang was worried about Ji Yunshu's funeral, so he bought her bird's nest because it was too troublesome.
Eighty nodded repeatedly and quickly grabbed the bag of bird's nest to do his work.
Very nimble!
Luo Yang was also tired from the whole night. He yawned repeatedly and quickly went to rest.
At this moment, Wen Che knew that Ji Yunshu had returned to the inn, so he got up to greet her.
Ji Yunshu's complexion was much better, and her body was gradually regaining some strength.
"Miss Ji, how is your body?" Wen Che asked with concern.
"Thank you for your concern, Young Master Wen. I rested for a night at the infirmary, and I'm fine now."
"I heard several days ago that Miss Ji's body is severely cold. It's an old illness."
"Yes, it's an old ailment." Ji Yunshu didn't care about the cold.
Originally, Wen Che planned to board the ship and wait until they reached Liangzhou before inviting Ji Yunshu to accompany him to Yan Jing. However, the words had already reached the tip of his tongue and he couldn't drag it any longer. He simply said, "Miss Ji, this cold is no small matter. If it isn't cured, I'm afraid that it will affect you for the rest of your life. My uncle is a famous divine physician. If Miss is willing, why don't you come with us to Yan Jing? When we reach Yan Jing, I will ask my uncle to come and treat you. I believe he will definitely think of a way to cure your cold illness. "
His sincerity!
Last night, after listening to Luo Yang's analysis, Ji Yunshu also had this plan. She planned to go with them to Yanjing and perhaps find Li Chuan there. However, when Wen Yu invited her with great hospitality, she refused on the grounds that she had matters to attend to in Liangzhou. She was worried that she wouldn't have a reason to ask again. She didn't expect that Wen Che would give her this opportunity.
Since he had given her this opportunity, there was no harm in grasping it!
After Wen Che finished speaking, he saw that she was contemplating and continued, "I know that Miss still has matters to attend to in Liangzhou and can't travel with us. However, how can I ignore Miss like this? Moreover, if it wasn't for your help, Ah Yu might have already been in trouble. So, I hope that Miss will agree to let me repay you a little and come with us to Yan Jing. "
He originally thought that this stubborn woman would refuse again, but who would have thought — — — -
Ji Yunshu continued his words, "If that's the case, then that's fine."
Wen Che was startled and said, "I thought that Miss would still refuse this time."
"Since Young Masters Wen are so kind, it's hard for me to refuse your kindness. Right now, my body isn't well, so I might have to trouble you to help me along the way. "
"Rest assured, Miss. When we reach Yan Jing, I will immediately ask my uncle to treat you. I will definitely get rid of the cold illness in your body."
Ji Yunshu smiled and nodded to express her gratitude.
In reality, she was very clear that the cold illness in her body couldn't be cured. Even Mo Ruo couldn't do it, so there was no one else in this world who could.
Wen Che didn't disturb her further and left after letting her rest.
Although Ji Yunshu's intention was somewhat to use the Wen brothers, it was the only thing she could do. Right now, all she wanted was to find Li Chuan. Everything else wasn't important.
That night, the large ship was repaired. Everyone boarded and set off in the direction of Liangzhou.
… …
Five days later, Yan Jing, Marquis Kang's estate.
The manservants and maids of the estate were busy welcoming today's guests. They busied themselves inside and outside without stopping.
It was said that today was the day of the estate's heir's marriage. The bride was the daughter of the Board of Rites' Minister.
Their families were well-matched!
The carriage of the Board of Rites' Minister had already arrived at the gates. Marquis Kang led the estate's servants to personally welcome them at the gates. It was clear how much importance he placed on his future daughter-in-law.
Three people came down from the carriage.
The Board of Rites' Minister, Lord Zhu, and his wife, Lady Jiang, as well as his youngest daughter, Zhu Yao.
The girl was around eighteen years old. She was indeed beautiful and had a pretty face. Her eyebrows were lightly swept, and her eyes were clear and bright like two clear pearls. Her every movement showed the temperament of a lady from a noble family.
Marquis Kang stepped forward to welcome them. "Lord Zhu, you've finally arrived."
The fact that Marquis Qujiang personally came out to welcome them made Lord Zhu gain a lot of face. He quickly cupped his hands and said, "There is no need for Marquis to personally welcome us."
"Of course, of course. This is the first time Lord Zhu has come to my estate. He is an honored guest."
Lord Zhu smiled and quickly turned his gaze to his daughter. "Yao 'er, come and greet the Marquis."
Zhu Yao gracefully stepped forward and bowed. "Yao 'er greets the Marquis."
"Get up, get up." Marquis Kang had a kind smile on his face. He looked at his daughter-in-law with satisfaction. "The last time I saw you, you were still a child. Now that I see you again, Yao 'er is already so graceful and graceful."
"Many thanks for the Marquis' praise." Zhu Yao's tone was gentle, carrying with it a youthful shyness that a girl should have.
Marquis Kang stroked his beard and smiled. He quickly invited them in.
Everyone chatted and laughed as they walked into the courtyard. Suddenly, Marquis Kang frowned. He turned to ask a manservant, "Where is the heir?"
The manservant shivered and stammered, "The heir, he … I don't know where he went."
"Trash, hurry up and find him!" The Marquis lightly snorted.
"Yes!" The manservant quickly ran away.
Marquis Kang welcomed the Ministry of Rites Minister's family into the main hall and served them good tea. He hoped to delay the time so that his disappointing son could quickly come over.
At this time, the heir of Marquis Kang, Li Shiyan, was fishing by the river. He was dressed in luxurious clothes and still had a restless attitude. However, there was an air of maturity between his brows.
It was already late in the morning and the sun was scorching hot. He was at ease, and Xiao Luzi was standing beside him holding an umbrella for him.
However, the whole morning had passed and not a single fish had taken the bait.
The surface of the water was calm and tranquil.
Li Shiyan held the fishing rod and did not move. He leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes to rest, enjoying the beautiful scenery.
Xiao Luzi, on the other hand, was burning with anxiety. His eyebrows furrowed like two earthworms. Finally, he could not bear it anymore and cautiously said, "Little Heir, let's go back."
Worry!
Li Shiyan's eyelids moved. "Go back? Go back for what?"
"The Marquis said that today is the day the Ministry of Rites Minister will come to the mansion. He told you not to go out. Now that we came here to fish, the Marquis will be furious. Little Heir, you will suffer again."
"I'm not afraid. What are you afraid of?"
"This little one is doing this for your own good! Look at you, the Marquis has been busy with your marriage, and now he has found the daughter of the Minister of Rites to marry you. That's a good match for you, and it will also be very beneficial to your future prospects. There are so many people in Yan Jing City who can't wait for this to happen, but you, the Crown Prince, are trying to avoid it, "Xiao Luzi said.
Li Shiyan did not care about this. He snorted. "What match of social status? That's because my father wants to win over the Ministry of Rites Minister. That's why he used my marriage as a stepping stone. I'm not stupid. I don't want to be a chess piece."
"That's not right, Heir. Even if the Marquis really has such a plan, he is doing it for you. Think about it, you are already at this age. Other young masters are already married and have children. They are not like you!" Xiao Luzi was not afraid of death and could not hide his words.
Li Shiyan opened his eyes and glared at him. He said unhappily, "Do you believe that I won't hook your mouth with a fish hook?"
Xiao Luzi shrank back. "This little one won't dare!"
"Listen to me, I have to make my own decisions in my life! Whoever I want to marry is my own business. Even my father cannot interfere. If you dare to side with someone else in the future, I will teach you a lesson. "Li Shiyan threatened.
Xiao Luzi nodded and swallowed his saliva. Seeing that the Little Heir's anger had gradually subsided, he asked, "Heir, don't tell me … you still haven't forgotten Miss Ji?"
Li Shiyan's face suddenly darkened when he mentioned this.
Five years!
It's been five years!
Ever since he left Great Lin's capital, he had never forgotten about Ji Yunshu. That woman's every frown and smile were constantly reflected in his heart, to the point that he had lost interest in other women. These past few years, he had wanted to go to Great Lin many times, but his father was too strict and he couldn't leave.
His eyes flickered a few times, concealing all the feelings in his heart. He reprimanded Xiao Luzi. "Who told you to speak such nonsense? If you speak again, I will cut off your tongue!"
"This little one won't say anymore."
Li Shiyan threw away the fishing rod in his hand and dusted off his hands. He got up and tidied up his wrinkled robe. "Forget it, I'm not fishing anymore. I haven't caught a single fish this morning."
"Then, are you going back to the mansion?"
"No!" Li Shiyan turned around and left.
Xiao Luzi quickly chased after him with an umbrella in hand. He asked, "Young Master, where are you going if you're not going back to the mansion?"
