Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 207

~WOUNDED YUE WANG ~ 

Hearing her reject him directly, Li Yuanyi became anxious, “Miss Ming Yin, please think it over carefully. Here, you have to serve others by bringing them tea, and you will always do the work of serving people. Don’t tell me that you are really willing?”

Ming Yin’s expression was firm: “Lord Li doesn’t need to say much. I have already made up my mind. As long as I can stay in Bu Xian Luo, I will not leave. If I can’t continue to make tea here in the future, I only need to find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to settle down, so I won’t dare to dream of anymore.”

“Miss …”

“My Lord, the tea won’t taste good when it’s cold.”

“Why are you so stubborn? I can see that you are not completely unmoved. Could it be that you mind the scar on your arm?”

Ming Yin’s expression changed as she subconsciously held onto her arm, and her face slightly pale.

“As expected,” Li Yuanyi said with a pained expression, “This matter has already passed, and Tan Bawang had executed as well. The wound on Miss’s arm has already healed, but the wound in her heart is still not healed, right?”

“Lord Li, you can merely take me as a stubborn person. If you go to Bu Xian Luo to taste the tea, don’t let a small matter like me affect your taste of the tea. Moreover, I was a lowly person and almost ruined by others. My reputation had ruined, but I don’t want to lose my dignity. My lord’s identity is precious. Don’t ruin your reputation because of me.”

Regardless of how Li Yuanyi tried to persuade her, she did not loosen up. Over the next few days, she was in good shape and began to entertain the guests. Her expression did not change at all, as if she did not take his words seriously at all.

Li Yuanyi had no choice but to put more effort into Ming Yin. But after not seeing her for just a day, his heart was so worried about everything, and he had no interest in doing anything. As soon as he had time, Ming Yin’s face would flash past his eyes, causing him to come to Bu Xian Luo subconsciously.

He specially arranged for Shopkeeper Qin to make deliberate arrangements and freed Ming Yin for the next few days, and he had her specifically entertain him alone. Ming Yin couldn’t reject him and could only accompany him day and night.

When Mu Yunyao heard Steward Qin talk about the progress over here, she couldn’t help but smile a little. “It’s almost about time. It seems like it’s about time for Fourth Master to make a move.”

At night, Mu Yunyao slept restlessly. While she was still in a daze, she suddenly heard a movement in the window. She hurriedly got up and sat down. “Who is it?”

“Don’t be afraid. It’s me.” In the darkness of the night, there was a sense of desolation in Yue Wang’s voice.

Mu Yunyao heaved a sigh of relief, and her eyes lit up to show her happiness. She quickly got up and lit the candle, “Fourth Master, did everything go smoothly?”

Yue Wang walked in, his eyes filled with uncontrollable joy. “As we expected, when we bought the salt, there were no problems, and we were able to board the ship smoothly afterward. However, on the surface of the river, there was a hidden ship that looked exactly like the salt carrying ship. It was just that the bags on it filled with sand and mud instead of salt. The salt merchants were going to take advantage of the night to replace the salt carrying ship with the salt ship filled with sand and mud. The salt ship intercepted by us, and we put all the salt in a safe place.”

Mu Yunyao’s heart jumped with joy, “This is great! Congratulations to Fourth Master on your success!”

Yue Wang smiled, his face softened a lot: “Thanks to Qi Ming, the information provided was extremely accurate. Furthermore, the salt merchants knew that this matter was not suitable for them to publicize, so they did not send that many people. The officials, who escorted the salt ship, we bribed in advance. When they were about to change the boat, they arrived at the shore in advance. Otherwise, we can't snatch the salt ship away so easily.”

“What about the ships with mud and sand?”

“It has already been cut down.”

Mu Yunyao’s eyes moved, “The salt merchant knew that the salt ship had robbed, so they continued to follow their original plans and dug up the boat. It seems that they aren’t willing to expose this matter.” If the Imperial Court knew that the salt ship had been taken away, it might even shake the ruling and opposition parties. So they would definitely send a large number of people to investigate and exterminate the salt ship. In this way, the risk will magnify many times. In addition, she doesn’t know the purpose of stealing the salt boat. Therefore, she did not dare to publicize, which was a great help to her.

Yue Wang coughed lightly, and his face turned pale.

Mu Yunyao hurriedly looked over, “Is Fourth Master injured?”

“I’ve been hit by some people, suffered some internal injuries, and will be fine after a period of recuperation.”

“Let me take a look.” Mu Yunyao indicated for Yue Wang to extend his hand and use her fingertip to touch it. Suddenly, she was shocked in her heart, “Fourth Master, how come you’re so heavily injured?” His pulse was in chaos. If it were a bit heavier, it would be hard to tell if he would be able to return to his feet.

“It’s not that serious.” A trace of unnaturalness flashed through Yue Wang’s face, but Mu Yunyao was still thinking of a way to help him recuperate, so she didn’t notice it.

“The matter has stabilized, and Fourth Master can go back to rest with peace of mind. I will see you again the next day, so you don’t have to worry too much. I will write down the prescription to recovery your health. It just so happens that I have almost all kinds of medicine materials here, and I’ll send them when they are ready.”

Yue Wang nodded his head: “Alright, you rest early too. There is no rush for the medicine. Just wait until the next day to boil it.”

“Internal injuries are not to taken lightly, and Fourth Master shouldn’t treat this carelessly. If you leave the root of the problem behind, I’m afraid it might affect your future progress in martial arts.”

“Mm, then I’ll wait for you to send it over.” After Yue Wang finished speaking, he stood up and left.

After Mu Yunyao finished writing the prescription, she called Jin Lan over to help her boil the medicine before sending Liu Liang over to deliver it. She had naturally heard what Yue Wang had said before he had left. It was just that already midnight, and she did not plan on getting involved with Yue Wang any further. Naturally, she would not personally deliver medicine.

In Jin Xiu Garden, Steward Qin was listening to Yue Wang’s orders. When he heard Yu Heng say that Liu Liang had sent medicine to him, he was startled: “Master, you’re injured?” Just now, he saw that his master’s expression as usual, and his words were full of vigor. He didn’t seem to be injured at all, so he thought that he was all right.

When Yue Wang heard that it was Liu Liang who sent the medicine over, the expression in his eyes darkened for a moment. He asked Yu Heng to take it in and put it aside directly.

Steward Qin promptly admonished: “Master, Miss Mu’s medical skills are exceptionally high, and the medicine she prescribed must be correct. You better drink it while it’s still hot. If you are worried, I will call Zhang Chun over the next day and ask him to help you have a diagnosis and treatment.”

“Don’t worry, Uncle Qin. I’m fine.”

“Are you alright?” Steward Qin still didn’t believe it.

A look of awkwardness flashed past Yue Wang’s eyes as he lightly clenched his fists and coughed: “I just used my Qi to change my pulse. It’s nothing.”

Steward Qin was surprised for a moment, and then he suddenly blinked his eyes, trying his best to hold back the smile on his face, “Ah, Master asked about Li Yuanyi’s progress before, and this servant will tell you in detail now. That Lord Li is now totally devoted to Ming Yin, and he even sent over several sets of precious accessories and headgear. I’m afraid it cost nearly ten thousand taels of silver.”

“Nearly ten thousand taels of silver. A Governor of Liangjiang can casually send such a large amount of silver to please a woman. Truly generous.”

Steward Qin sighed. Not long ago, Wang Ye had a headache because of several tens of thousands of silver taels. Now, a second rank official had casually thrown out so many silver taels, which was ironic: “It won’t take long to get so happy.”

“Yes.” Yue Wang nodded his head, “Tomorrow, keep an eye on Li Yuanyi. Don’t let anything go wrong.”

“Yes, Master. Please rest early. En, you had suffered internal injuries. If you don’t rest, it will get worse. It won’t be good.” After Steward Qin finished speaking, he turned and left directly. When he walked out of the door, he couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Steward Qin really didn’t expect that when he and Old Cheng were worried that Wang Ye would be lonely for the rest of his life. In half a year, he was able to pretend to be wounded to make the young lady’s heart grieve. Not bad, not bad at all!
