Chapter 9 Don't Regret
"Okay." She heard it and slightly curved her eyes.
His tone was easily convincing.
"Have you taken the detoxification pill today?"
"Impressed."
"Did you learn it yesterday?"
"I should have learned it."
Yu Tongchen bent down and pulled out the needle, "Then play a song."
"Okay." She responded softly.
After Yu Tongchen finished his acupuncture, Jiang Xi brought the zither in.
"Let's move to the main house tomorrow. There are windows on both sides over there. Open the window that faces away from the wind on weekdays. The room will be brighter and not hurt your eyes."
Jiang Xi was surprised when he heard this.
There is no doubt that Miss Shu is the future mistress!
Shu Shiyu raised his eyes and said, "Not good, right?"
"It's not bad. No one usually lives over there. It's empty anyway. I usually live in the study."
“I don’t pay attention to that here.”
Seeing that she was about to refuse again, Yu Tongchen continued: "It's good for your health. Don't you want to get better soon?"
"Well... okay." Shu Shiyu pursed his lips and agreed after considering for a while.
Yu Tongchen turned around and let her tidy herself up.
Shu Shiyu sat in front of the piano, plucked the strings lightly with her slender fingers to test the sound, and then started playing the tune she remembered.
After the song of Spring and Bright Scenery was over, Yu Tongchen said, "It's a little rusty, practice more."
"Ah."
"I'll teach you to play other ones later."
"Okay~" She couldn't help but jump for joy, with the tail end of her voice rising slightly.
Yu Tongchen looked at her for a while, his eyes deepened, then he looked away and left.
Seeing that he had disappeared, Shu Shiyu breathed a sigh of relief, clenched his fists and then released them.
Yu Tongchen returned to the study and continued reading. He felt a little uncomfortable after not seeing the chattering silly Zhuzi for the past two days.
He looked around the room for a while and saw the Pearl of All Worlds quietly resting on the bookshelf.
He stood up and held it in his hand.
Wanjiezhu was woken up by him and said unhappily, "Host, why are you disturbing my sleep?"
Yu Tongchen raised his eyebrows slightly, "You need to sleep too?"
"Why don't you sleep when you're bored? You dislike my nagging, but other people can't see me."
"You can predict the future?"
"Yes, whose future do you want to know?" Wanjiezhu was alert.
"Your mission target."
Wanjiezhu breathed a sigh of relief. "She was used as a pawn by the Prime Minister's Mansion and sent to the Second Prince's backyard. In the end, she was drugged by her vicious sister and died because of the drug's effects."
A cold light flashed in Yu Tongchen's eyes.
"But before she died, she killed the prime minister's wife and others who had plotted to murder her mother, and handed the evidence to the crown prince, bringing down the prime minister's mansion."
"When her grandfather learned of her death, he was already alone and had no one to worry about. He died soon after due to excessive grief."
"Host, you just need to heal her, send someone to stop others from harming her, and protect her until she grows old. Your identity is not simple, so it shouldn't be difficult, right?"
"It's not difficult, but you have to promise me something first."
"What is it? I can do anything that's reasonable."
"I'll tell you about it later. It's not difficult. Just don't stop me."
"Not against moral principles?"
"Ah."
"Okay, I won't stop you!"
Yu Tongchen curled his lips and smiled, hoping that it would not regret it in the future.
……
"Master, the prince is here." Nanxing came in and reported.
"What is he doing here again?" Yu Tongchen didn't even raise his head.
"Why, you don't welcome me?"
A clear male voice approached. Yu Tongchen raised his eyes and saw a handsome man dressed in blue phoenix brocade and with two fish pendants on his waist striding towards him.
"Don't bring those troubles to me again." Yu Tongchen put down his pen and said with disdain.
"I've gotten rid of it. I won't do it again this time." Jing Zhan pulled out the chair in front of him and sat down.
"No one comes to visit you for no reason. Tell me, what do you want to do this time?"
"Why can't you come if you have nothing to do?" Jing Zhan played with the ring on his waist, "I just feel bored over there, so I came here to stay for a few days."
"I don't like you. Which of the many villas can't I go to? I don't believe you."
"Well, I can't hide it from you. I just played a trick to escape. Let them fight for a while and then I will go back to close the net."
Yu Tongchen poured him tea.
"Are you really not going back to Beijing? With your talent, you shouldn't be buried."
"That's not my ambition. Besides, how can I be a poor doctor? I've already made a name for myself. I've already set up the game for you. You just need to sit tight and wait."
"Okay, then I won't persuade you anymore." Jing Zhan smiled and shook his head, "Is my house still available?"
"You go live in the east wing."
"Why, you're moving back to the main house? I can choose one of the other houses next to it, right?"
"The main house is occupied."
"Who deserves your hospitality? Even I have to be thick-skinned to stay here."
"Stop asking."
"Hide it from me too?"
"You don't have much respect with me."
Jing Zhan: ...
"You are the only one in this world who doesn't take me seriously."
Yu Tongchen didn't respond.
"Is lunch ready? I'm hungry after the journey." Although it is not yet noon.
"Your Highness, we're ready." Nan Xing beside him replied.
"Then bring it over."
Nanxing looked at Yu Tongchen.
"Go."
"Your secret guards are just like you, they don't give me face." Jing Zhan said.
"Aren't you used to it?"
"Master, Bai Tong said that Miss Shu has woken up." Ziling came in and said.
"Well, take the prince to have dinner." Yu Tongchen picked up the medicine box.
Shu Shiyu slept late last night and got up late today, so he hasn't given her acupuncture yet.
Seeing that he was walking so fast, Jing Zhan's eyes became suspicious.
After Yu Tongchen left, Jing Zhan waved to Ziling.
"His Royal Highness."
"Who is the Miss Shu you mentioned just now?"
"Miss Shu is Master's patient and is staying in the valley for the time being."
"Is she the one who lives in the main house?"
"Yes."
"How did your master treat her?"
Zi Ling scratched his head. "What? The doctor treats the patient as he wants. Master goes to give acupuncture to Miss Shu every day."
"Oh no!" Zi Ling slapped his head, "Master will also teach Miss Shu to practice the piano, and..."
"What else?" Jing Zhan raised his eyebrows, with a hint of interest in his eyes.
"I go to accompany her every day." The master didn't say what can't be said, so it can be said.
Jing Zhan smiled and walked away, "I will go to eat first and wait for Yu Heguang to come back."
It's so rare to hear gossip about his good friend who is not interested in women. It's really interesting.
On the other side, Yu Tongchen knocked on the door and pushed it open. "Couldn't you sleep last night?"
"Yeah, I'm very energetic tossing and turning."
"What are you thinking about?" He felt her pulse.
"I wrote back to my elders at home, but for some reason, I still feel uneasy."
"General Ling?"
"Ah."
"If you trust me, I'll send someone to investigate."
Shu Shiyu looked at him and said, "Okay."
There was a smile in Yu Tongchen's eyes, "Relax, nothing major happened in the capital."
It has nothing to do with her.
"Ah."
"Do you still want to play the piano today?"
"Not really interested."
"Can you play chess?"
"Understood."
"I'll play a game with you this afternoon."
"it is good."
Shu Shiyu always felt that he was coaxing him.
I shook my head, thinking it must be an illusion.
"Most of the fetal toxins in your body have been cleared. In a few days, they will be completely cleared. Your body is getting stronger. You can go out more often in the spring."
"Ah."
Seeing her nod obediently, Yu Tongchen had the urge to touch her head, but he restrained himself.
"Let's have a meal."
He went out carrying the medicine box.
