Facing Jing Chen, who rushed over without any explanation as soon as he heard the letter, Yu Shu's heart warmed. She secretly thought that she did not treat this silly boy well for nothing.
"Let's go, let's talk on the side," Yu Shu saw the two bodyguards following Jing Chen closely and pointed to a secluded place on the side of the road to avoid being seen and heard.
"If you really said it, I will have big trouble recently," Yu Shu stopped and whispered to Jing Chen, "I want you to lend me the Yellowfrost Stone for a while."
On the first day of the first month, she and Jing Chen met at Wangji Tower to discuss the matter of teaching. When Jing Chen sent her back, he reminded her to be careful and said that her face was strange. It was not a lie.
Jing Chen's eyebrows became a little nervous. With a pair of good eyes, he looked at Yu Shu's facial features and complexion. When he saw a mass of gray covering her nose and gallbladder, he knew that she was in trouble. He wanted to say that he would give her the Yellowfrost Stone, but he could not bring it out at the moment.
Seeing his hesitation, Yu Shu asked tentatively, "What's wrong? You didn't bring it with you? "
Jing Chen shook his head and showed a difficult expression, "I just gave the Adversity Blocking Stone to Shimei the day before yesterday. She — has a disaster to hide from recently."
Jing Chen did not hide it and confessed the whereabouts of the Yellowfrost Stone. When Yu Shu heard it, she knew that it was impossible for her to borrow the treasure to hide from danger. Although the Yellowfrost Stone had a magical effect, it could only protect one person. If it was given to her, what would happen to Jing Chen's little shimei?
The two were silent for a moment. Yu Shu was the first to laugh dryly. Before Jing Chen could speak again, she pretended to sigh and said pitifully, "Haha, what a coincidence. Forget it, first come, first served."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Jing Chen. Seeing that he wanted to say something but hesitated a few times, he finally apologized to her, "Xiaoyu, I'm sorry. Junior Martial Sister's calamity was predicted by Uncle-Master before she left the mountain. To be honest, she entered the human realm to experience the calamity. In the letter, Uncle-Master entrusted me to protect her and gave her the Yellowfrost Stone to wear. That's why I couldn't give it to you."
Hearing Jing Chen's words … Even though Yu Shu had already accepted it, her eyes still darkened and she felt a chill in her chest. She thought to herself, Her safety was not as important as the safety of her Junior Sister. Friends of life and death could not compare to childhood sweethearts.
Let's not talk about first come, first served. People's hearts were always biased.
She could understand Jing Chen's dilemma. If they were in each other's shoes, if the ones in trouble were Jing Chen and Yu Xiaoxiu, what would she do?
What she didn't want, let alone others.
"However. There are still many auspicious treasures in the Princess Residence. I'll go back and find them for you. Is that okay? "
Yu Shu raised her head and looked at Jing Chen's guilty face. She wanted to say no, but she couldn't bear to criticize this honest person. She squeezed out a smile and said, "That's good. You have to find a few more for me. I'll tell you first. If you break them, I won't return them to you. "
Seeing that Yu Shu didn't blame him, Jing Chen seemed to be relieved. He nodded and asked with concern, "Do you know what disaster you're talking about? Do you know what kind of disaster it is? "
Hearing that he only asked now, Yu Shu restrained her expression and said calmly, "Actually, it's not that serious. I'm already prepared. I'm still confident that I can deal with it."
"That's good." Jing Chen said seriously, "You know that I'm a sinful person. I'm afraid that I'll bring disaster to you. You should be careful. "
Although he had the Ten Thousand Year Funeral Oration of the Da An Imperial Tomb, and it wouldn't affect his body, he still couldn't rashly move his Dao heart. Once there was love and hate, it would be full of evil.
"En, I know." Yu Shu looked away from him and pointed to the guards and carriage not far away. She said, "Don't you still have to enter the palace? Go quickly. Don't delay."
Jing Chen's mind was purer and didn't understand the fickleness of human emotions. He didn't know that his attitude had cooled Yu Shu's heart.
"Okay, then I'll go first. I'll come find you tomorrow." Jing Chen and Yu Shu walked back to the carriage one after another. Before he got on the carriage, he remembered to say to her, "I've copied Shifu's' Chaotic Sky Divination Book '. When the astrolabe is done, I'll send it to you."
Yu Shu didn't have the mood to be happy about these worldly possessions. She smiled and watched him get into the palace style carriage. He was escorted by the guards and left.
Turning around, she entered the courtyard.

Another night of tossing and turning. The next day, Yu Shu sat at the dining table with a pair of dark circles under her eyes. Zhao Hui saw her and said with distress, "You child, how many times have I told you not to stay up too late at night? I know you work hard, but you can't tire yourself out. Your father said it right, no matter how great one's ability is, it can't compare to a healthy body."
After talking about Yu Shu, she went to scold Yun Dou, "You little girl, don't you know how to persuade your young lady. If she suffers at night again, turn off the light for her. Do you hear me?"
Yun Dou looked at Yu Shu and didn't dare to agree. Using the excuse of going to the kitchen to get some soup and rice, she quickly ran out.
Yun Dou didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She said to Yu Shu, "Look at how smart she is. She only followed you for a few days and she already knows to look at your face."
Yu Shu laughed, "Didn't you ask her to listen to me? She's not looking at my face, she's looking at your face."
Zhao Hui glared at her. Fortunately, Shen Nanny came in with the food. He Fangzhi interrupted and saved Yu Shu from Zhao Hui's nagging.
As a doctor, health was important. Three meals a day had to be on time. The He family usually had breakfast around seven in the morning. Thus, when the servants cleared the dishes, the sun had just risen.
Yu Shu went back to her room to catch up on sleep. Just as she was about to lie down, she heard from outside that Jing Chen had arrived. She yawned, got up, and went to the front to meet him.

Because Jing Chen had to appear at the Shuang Yang Association in the morning, he asked someone to carry the things he brought for Yu Shu to the living room. He gave her some instructions and left in a hurry.
This time, Jing Chen had sent a total of three rare treasures. One of them was a two-feet-tall Guanyin sitting on a lotus. It was said that it was a spiritual item that had been blessed by an eminent monk who had saved the world two dynasties ago.
There was a long sword with jewels and pearls on its scabbard. It was said to have been equipped by a general who protected the country on the battlefield a hundred years ago. Later, it was dispelled by an enlightened master. It was a treasure to ward off evil.
The last one was a set of calligraphy set with sandalwood. It was said to have been written by the first Zhuangyuan during the founding of the Da 'an Kingdom. With a stroke of his brush, the Wenqu Star in the sky shone brightly. It was said that the zhuangyuan was the reincarnation of the Wenqu Star. This treasure was full of righteousness.
These three treasures were all priceless. They should be the few treasures left in the Princess's Mansion. They must have been picked out by Jing Chen and placed in front of Yu Shu. But it didn't make a greedy person like her happy.
It was fine if she didn't understand it. Just like a person who didn't understand medicine, he didn't know how to prescribe the right medicine. Sometimes, a dose of a thousand gold was not as good as two grams of licorice. It was the same for seeking good luck and avoiding evil.
Not to mention the value of these three treasures, two of them were used to attract good fortune, while the last one was used to ward off evil. Even though it was useful, its effect was minimal. It was incomparable to the Yellow Frost Stone's ability to ward off evil.
After using these treasures, she naturally had to return them. Fearing that they would be damaged, Yu Shu carefully moved them to her room. According to the Fengshui, she hung the Bixie Sword on the south wall and the Zhuangyuan's calligraphy on the north side of the desk.
As for the Guanyin statue, it lay quietly in the treasure chest and was put on the shelf. It was easy to invite a god, but difficult to send a god away. It was better not to look for trouble.
