Chapter 10 - The Beginning of Scholarship

Fructus Ligustris Sativus checked on the veins for a long time, his expression becoming more and more solemn, seeing that the ancestor and grandson who were initially chatting with each other suddenly become quiet, he nervously looked at Yun Qianliang and him.

Yun Qianliang was originally very calm, but at this time he also tensed up. His palms couldn't help but sweat, and his heart was even wavering, suspecting that her body that he didn't need money to pick up was truly sick.

Gu Yicheng's hand under the table quietly held onto Yun Qianliang's left hand, as if comforting his. In fact, to make her pulse abnormal, she channeled some of her Qi into her body, causing her pulse to become chaotic.

Just as Fructus Ligustris Sativus was about to stop, he realized that something was wrong. His hand that had just moved about an inch did not seem to have touched it properly.

However, this time, he quickly retracted his hand, and when he let go, his brows relaxed.

"Madam's pulse is slow and weak. The pulse is not real, it is due to physical weakness. I will open a prescription to treat it." Fructus Ligustris Sativus only made a simple diagnosis.

Yun Qianliang retracted her hand, and an indifferent smile appeared on her face, she had the intention to beat someone up in her heart, but her expression turned serious, and her brows knitted tightly, the result was just a small weakness, wasn't this just trying to scare them?

After Fructus Ligustris Sativus finished writing the prescription, he blew on the paper to dry the ink and handed it to Gu Yicheng.

"Master, please take a look."

Gu Yicheng took it, and looked at it for a good while, "According to this prescription."

Firstly, Gu Yicheng was not a doctor, and the prescription was useless to him. Secondly, he did not understand her body condition, so he should be able to tell her the medicinal properties of the medicine, and see if she could take it.

"It's good that you're fine. Little Yun girl, don't work too hard. Take care of your body as soon as possible, and help the Gu family pass down the incense." Marquis of Anguo instructed.

"Thank you for your concern, Grandpa. I will definitely take good care of it." Yun Qianliang replied with a smile.

She wanted to live a life of leisure. To count money in her free time was the most satisfying.

"Hurry up and send away all the female singers in the house. Don't make the Residence of Prime Minister feel bad. If the Little Yun girl suffers because of this, I'll break your legs." The tranquility between the brows of the Marquis of Anguo was just like an ordinary grandfather and grandson, not showing any arrogance at all.

"You should be able to hit him." Gu Yicheng picked up his teacup and replied leisurely.

Marquis of Anguo's eyes stared wide open, he really wanted to kick him, "If I can't hit him, won't I get Zhouqing to beat me up?"

"Master Hou, you're overthinking it. I'm no match for you." The guard standing behind him answered sincerely. He was obviously accustomed to this kind of scene.

Marquis of Anguo pointed angrily at the guards who turned the tables in the battle, and was extremely furious.

"Grandfather, don't be angry, I don't mind." Yun Qianliang lifted the teapot, filled Marquis of Anguo's empty teacup full of tea and personally brought it to him, "The young master has always worked on the affairs of the nation, his body and mind are exhausted, it is rare that he has any hobbies during leisure time, how can I deprive the young master of his pleasure?"

Yun Qianliang's voice rose, carrying the freshness of a drizzling rain, causing Marquis of Anguo to feel better after hearing it.

There was no use raising a grandson, it was better to raise a girl.

"Little Yun girl is always sensible, I really don't know who said those bad things about you. They turned a good girl into an evil person, then changed the situation to find a person to spread rumors about. Grandfather sent troops to annihilate them." Marquis of Anguo's eyes flashed sternly, he was truly infuriated.

Because he was young and frequently went to war, his face was sharp when he was angry. He was actually not young at all. On the contrary, his face was filled with an imposing aura.

"Rumors in the market have it that people are born with short hair and short hair. They can only believe it. If you mind it too much, people will think I'm weak." Yun Qianliang tried his best to maintain a dignified and generous posture as he spoke these words after careful consideration in his heart.

A trace of doubt flashed across Gu Yicheng's eyes, as he looked at the extremely disguised woman.

Too unusual.

The two stayed in House of the Marquis of An until evening when Gu Yicheng had matters to attend to. Only then did the two left the House of the Marquis of An.

The moment he stepped out of the residence, Yun Qianliang could not help but heave a sigh of relief.

She did not intend to investigate too much, but Marquis of Anguo happily told her. She was truly afraid that she would accidentally find out a secret that she should not have heard of, bringing about a calamity upon herself.

In the carriage, Yun Qianliang was preoccupied with many matters, his expression was so solemn that it seemed as though the sky would collapse anytime, and she would not be able to hold on.

"The various rumors in the capital all say that the Miss Yun is a vulgar and unrefined person, whereas the short crane and the long termite, these types of idioms belong to the masses. Yet, the Miss Yun can do whatever she wants with them." Gu Yicheng tapped his finger on the glass bottle on the table lightly. Within the bottle was a beautiful red carp. Because of the flicking of his fingers, the Golden Carp escaped into the water. Its tail, which looked like a thin layer of red silk, spread out and fell into the water like red ink.

Yun Qianliang had the illusion that she was like a fish trapped in a glass bottle. If no one could take her out of the bottle, his every action would shock her peaceful life.

Thinking about it this way, Yun Qianliang suddenly felt uncomfortable, she clenched his hands which were hidden between his sleeves, raising his head, his face full of interest and ridicule, his eyes sharp.

"A dignified prime minister, has he fallen so far that he has to rely on exposing me to look for a sense of accomplishment?" A look of mockery appeared on Yun Qianliang's face, and in the blink of an eye, he was filled with hostility towards the person who was pressuring her.

"This senior is only curious, is the person who married me a puppet wearing a mask, or is the Miss Yun in the past a puppet that has been bound?" Gu Yicheng raised his eyebrows in interest, the mischievous smile on his face made people furious.

"The Fine Jade Palace has also heard of this calamity, which house is free of trouble? If you do not have the means, how will you survive this perilous situation? " Yun Qianliang was not shy. Instead, she acted like a clown in front of the old cunning fox.

Yun Qianliang's words caused Gu Yicheng to ponder deeply. A direct daughter who had lost his power was simply too outstanding.

If that was the case, Yun Qianliang could not underestimate his. A person who could bear with the rumors and survive in such a perilous situation must have a strong personality. It would probably be difficult for him to find out the reason for her marriage to the Prime Minister.

"Since that is the case, why does Miss Yun not continue to disguise herself?" Gu Yicheng asked despite knowing the answer.

Yun Qianliang pursed her lips and looked at Gu Yicheng's devilishly smiling face, the playful look growing in her heart. It was just like a cat catching a mouse, who could easily crush its opponent and let its opponent show off a little.

Yun Qianliang frowned, she lowered her gaze and cleared the restlessness in her heart, and said faintly: "I am very stupid, I do not come and go like the lord, but get caught by you every now and then. Rather than waiting for my suspicions to affect my safety, it would be better to be honest with you."

She did not know if the Yun Qianliang of the past was hiding her strength, but the current her would die if she was not smarter.

A dead chess piece, the only thing that was of value was death.

If she did not want to die, then let others know, Yun Qianliang was definitely not a useless person, the value of his life far exceeded that of death, showing off was her only way out!
