463 Competing for the Medicinal Primer (3)

She was like a dying shrimp, and even her voice was trembling. “…It’s… not even ten days…”

The gentle torture made one wish they could die there.

Before dawn the next day, Dong Xian’er received an exquisite basket covered in red silk. She was woken up early in the morning and thought that there was some treasure inside. She took it and took a look. It was two round red eggs.

Dong Xian’er : “…”

On a sunny morning, the three-day deadline arrived as promised. The Great Gu Master that Uncle Helian had found for them had entered the manor. He was an elder in his fifties and had an ordinary appearance, but his black robe was valiant and heroic.

Helian Beiming called him Lord Yue. With Helian Beiming’s current status, for him to call him lord, the other party’s background was definitely not simple. But then again, weren’t only the royal family able to invite Great Gu Masters?

Yu Wan did not hide her doubts and Qing Yan saw it. Qing Yan was from the Ghost Clan and had many dealings with Nanzhao. He knew the market in this aspect better than Yu Wan. He explained, “After becoming a Great Gu Master, you can become an esteemed guest of the royal family, but not all the Great Gu Masters have entered the royal family. There are also many hidden experts.”

It was obvious that this Gu Master Yue was a hidden expert of the original royal family. She did not know how Helian Beiming invited such a person. On second thought, he was the Divine General of Nanzhao after all. Was it strange for him to know a Gu Master?

In the Ghost Clan, Gu Masters did not have a systematic evaluation system. How strong they were depended entirely on their Gu techniques. Therefore, there was no such thing as a Gu Master or a Great Gu Master. Qing Yan felt that these things were very superficial. Once a person became a Gu Master, it was like a Central Plains person becoming a scholar. Their value would immediately increase. However, in fact, many of them would get carried away by wealth and neglect their research on Gu techniques after they were used to being surrounded by stars.

A powerful Gu Master should live a poor life, like Ah Wei.

Why was he thinking about that kid again? Qing Yan felt that he had gone crazy. The number of times he thought of that kid was actually increasing. He was clearly a little brat. Why did he miss him so much?

On the other side, Yu Wan met Gu Master Yue under Helian Beiming’s recommendation.

To be honest, Yu Wan did not have a good impression of Gu Masters. It was mainly because she met two shameless and arrogant Gu Masters on the way to the Imperial Capital. One of them was killed by them, and the other was left by Helian Beiming to fend for himself.

Those two Gu Masters were already so arrogant. Would this higher-level Gu Master be even more arrogant than the two of them?

Soon, Yu Wan realized that she was thinking too much. Not only was this Senior Yue not noble at all, but he was also very friendly.

So they verified that old-fashioned saying—a truly wise person does not show off his ability.

“Senior Yue.” Yu Wan smiled and greeted him. She was still dressed as a man today, but when Helian Beiming introduced her, he said that she was his niece-in-law. She spoke in her own voice. “You can call me Ah Wan.”

Senior Yue nodded politely and called out to Ah Wan.

Yan Jiuchao was entangled by the Old Madam and did not come over. Yu Wan felt that this was good too, in case this fellow became jealous when he saw Dong Xian’er later and said something impressive. Yu Wan introduced Jiang Hai and Qing Yan to Senior Yue. Yue Gou stayed in the manor and waited for Yan Jiuchao’s orders.

However, Yu Wan had underestimated her husband’s ability. The moment she lifted the curtain, a certain someone was already sitting firmly in the seat covered with tiger skin.

Yan Jiuchao said coldly, “Ha, you want to leave me behind again? Dream on!”

What do you mean again? Didn’t I bring you along to Paramount too? Yu Wan was wronged. Was it an illusion or something else? Her current situation was really like a big scumbag who had gone to meet a mistress in private and was caught by the first wife.

The scumbag sat down. The first wife did not look happy. The scumbag decided to coax the first wife!

“Look at you, aren’t I doing this for you? I didn’t go alone. There are so many people watching. What can I do? Besides, I’m worried that you’ll be tired. I want you to rest well by staying at home. Sleep obediently. I’ll be back when you wake up.”

“Hmph.” Yan Jiuchao did not listen at all. He stretched out his arm and pulled Yu Wan into his arms to suck her in.

Yu Wan looked at the roof of the carriage. She seemed to be overthinking. He had followed her because he was feeling unwell. She openly let him suck. She did not think that her aura could calm the torture in his body. Everything was just a psychological effect and a mental pillar.

This is probably the power of love, she thought.

Dong Xian’er had sent a maidservant to deliver the news yesterday—at nine o’clock, in the Biluo Villa, she was waiting for you.

At this moment, their destination was the Biluo Villa. The person driving the carriage for her was originally Jiang Hai, but Qing Yan knew the Imperial Capital better than Jiang Hai, so Yu Wan asked the two of them to change. Jiang Hai went to drive Senior Yue’s carriage.

Jiang Hai’s expression was extremely ugly.

From Qing Yan’s words, Yu Wan roughly understood what kind of existence the Biluo Villa was. It was about the same as the summer resort in her previous life. It was originally a royal forest garden, but later on, the royal family didn’t want it anymore and let a rich merchant buy it. That was why it was changed to the Biluo Villa.

Yu Wan asked, “Can the royal garden still be sold? Is the Nanzhao Royal Family short of money?” The Emperor of the Great Zhou would not do such a thing. Putting aside whether he lacked money or not, it was mainly embarrassing. The royal garden could only be rewarded and not sold.

Qing Yan smiled. “It has nothing to do with money. The royal family of Nanzhao is very rich. However, this was originally a place where Consort Yun avoided the heat when she was pregnant. Consort Yun gave birth to a jinx. The Emperor thought that this garden was also contaminated by the jinx, so he sold it.”

Because it was the house that the jinx and her mother had stayed in, it was not appropriate to reward anyone. They could only sell it to lowly merchants.
