Chapter 141

C141 – Wei Yan

When Tang Yue heard about this rumor from Crown Prince Zhao, he was so shocked that he couldn’t say anything. “This... this...” Where did this come from?

He really admires the ability of these people to spread rumors. They are comparable to modern paparazzi. No, they should be better. At least paparazzi wouldn’t be able to do it. Make a village full of living people into dead people.

“Your Highness, would anyone believe such ridiculous rumors?” Tang Yue could not understand why someone would use such a lame lie to plot against someone.

The villagers of Yellow Flower Village were not dead. Wasn’t it obvious with just a glance?

Crown Prince Zhao patted Tang Yue’s shoulder and sat down next to him. Tang Yue leaned on his body spontaneously and absorbed that bit of warmth.

Crown Prince Zhao glanced at him with a smile on his face. The infatuation in his eyes was released without a care in the world.

Tang Yue only glanced at him once and quickly dodged it. That kind of gaze was too aggressive. He could not resist it.

There was a wet and hot sensation on his face. Tang Yue turned his head and wiped Crown Prince Zhao’s lips. Both of them were stunned.

Tang Yue was about to take a step back and open his mouth to speak when the other suddenly grabbed his waist and pressed a hand on the back of his head. His tongue took advantage of the situation and rushed in.

Tang Yue’s heart rate instantly shot up. He originally thought that the other party would first try to stop and then take it step by step. Who would have thought that Crown Prince Zhao would not act according to common sense this time. As if he could not wait, he hooked his tongue and took a deep breath.

Tang Yue felt his tongue go numb. He pinched the flesh on his arm, but he could not do it with his hard muscles.

“Do you have a problem with that?” Crown Prince Zhao looked at him.

Tang Yue blinked his eyes. His tongue was still sticking out. Suddenly, his face turned red. “You are...”

“I don’t know why I am so impulsive when I see you. Maybe it is because I have grown up?” Crown Prince Zhao asked with a smile. Then, he held Tang Yue’s hand and placed it on his lower abdomen.

Tang Yue’s eyes widened and the corner of his mouth twitched. “Adolescent. Ha-ha... Impulsiveness is the devil...”

“Then...”

Tang Yue cut him off, “Then let’s talk about the current situation first.”

He was not done with the proper business. Wasn’t this trying to whet his appetite?

Crown Prince Zhao pecked him on the lips a few more times before he was willing to let him go. “I don’t know what kind of place you used to live in, but in this place, even the most ridiculous things will happen.”

Tang Yue did not know what was going on. The first half of Crown Prince Zhao’s sentence seemed unusual, but he did not probe further. He followed Crown Prince Zhao’s words and said, “The king is not stupid.”

Tang Yue asked him to come back tomorrow morning. What the hell could he see in the middle of the night?

The young man smiled happily and thanked Tang Yue again and again, “Your Highness is really a good person. The reincarnation of Bodhisattva will definitely be rewarded in the future!”

Tang Yue smiled and urged him to go back to rest. The filial piety of the young man reminded him of his past life, and his heart was somewhat heavy.

“What’s your name?” Tang Yue took two pieces of dried meat from the table.

“Wei Yan, the commoner’s surname is Wei Yan, and his life is long. Father hopes the commoner can live longer.”

“Have you read?” Tang Yue did not look like someone who had never read.

“I’ve only learned a few words,” the young man replied humbly. “The peasants work in a bookstore in Ye City. The owner is kind and allows the peasants to read some books when they are free.”

Tang Yue thought to himself, “To be able to understand books, you must know more than just a few words.”

He knew that there were many scholars among the people, but none of them came from a good background. If they did not meet Bo Le who recommended them, they might not be able to use their talents for the rest of their lives.

Tang Yue had an idea. When Crown Prince Zhao ascended to the throne, he hoped that he could move the imperial examinations to this era. If there were conditions, it would be even better if he could combine it with the modern education system.

However, if he could not become fat in one go, the best would not necessarily be suitable for this era. As for how to implement it, it would depend on the situation.

“Reading is very good. Don’t give up. Perhaps there will be some accomplishments in the future.”

The young man revealed a bitter smile. “You overestimated the commoner. The commoner’s background is destined to never have any great achievements in this life. Learning calligraphy is just to not let oneself be an ignorant and stupid person.”

Tang Yue did not give him any great reason. He only comforted him. “This time and this time are different. The future is uncertain.”

When the sun rose, Elder Chen brought people to replace Tang Yue. Before Tang Yue left, he took Wei Yan to see his father and brother, but he did not let him in. He just stood outside the window and said a few words.

As the patient’s health gradually improved, laughter gradually appeared in the room. Some people even joked, “The new year is coming soon. Why don’t we spend New Year’s Eve together in Yellow Flower Village?”

This suggestion received the support of everyone. The people who were lying here used to be in despair and thought that they would die for sure. Now that hope was in front of them, they were naturally in a good mood.

Compared to death, the difficulties and setbacks in life were nothing.

Originally, there were always some contradictions and sordid things in a village. Ever since the outbreak of malaria, everyone’s state of mind had changed. When their old enemies met again, they would at most ignore them.

They were all people who had finally managed to take back their breath from Hell King. How could they care about those grudges?

Tang Yue looked at their gradually relaxed smiles and also felt emotional. In history, due to the lack of medical technology, many innocent civilians were annihilated because of an unknown infectious disease. For the first time, he realized how correct his decision to study medicine was.
