Chapter 1642: Enlightenment Master
Huo Changxu told the truth about Yu Qingyue.
"She wanted to treat me to a meal, but I didn't go. I still accepted her paper and followed my sister-in-law's instructions to have the abbot and military doctor Cao look at it."
"They said there was no problem, but I didn't use it lightly. I'd better wait for my sister-in-law to come back and take a look."
Yan Ruyu nodded: "Okay, then bring it back tomorrow and I'll show it to you."
"it is good."
Huo Changxu asked again: "Sister-in-law, how long do I have to pretend to be nice to her?"
"It depends on the situation. If I hadn't gone out, I wouldn't have told you, nor would I have alarmed her. I just wanted to see when she would make a move and whether she had any more cards up her sleeve. Now that you know, then..."
"I can do that too," Huo Changxu said quickly, "I can also pretend not to know and see what she's going to do. I'm just afraid that you and Big Brother have other plans."
Yan Ruyu smiled at him and said, "It's not a big deal. Don't be nervous. I've already investigated. She's average in skills and not an expert in using poison. She's just a smart and clever person. She came here to be a spy."
"Since she's good at making paper, as long as it's normal paper, why not? Just let her do what she wants. Anyway, if she makes any unusual moves, she'll be discovered. Just be careful when you come into contact with her."
"okay, I get it."
As they were talking, they arrived at the inner courtyard. Yan Ruyu said, "You go and see mother. I'll go back to the courtyard to see if your elder brother has woken up. I'll see you at dinner later."
"Yes."
Yan Ruyu returned to the yard. It was quiet and Huo Changhe was still asleep.
She did not wake him up, but sat alone in the corridor, reading the pages carefully.
Taoist Master Xuanqing’s character is not very good, but his handwriting is very good. Yan Ruyu reads every page and every thing carefully.
There were three things that worried her the most.
The first was the riot in Shencheng, the second was the plague outside the Great Wall, and the third was the death of the sixth prince.
She suddenly remembered that before leaving, she had asked the secret guard to go to Shencheng to find the vendor who collected medicinal herbs.
I don’t know what the outcome will be.
She immediately summoned the secret guards and asked whether the secret guards who went to Shencheng had returned.
"Princess, he has returned from Shencheng, but he has other tasks and is out of the city. The news he brought from Shencheng last time has been reported to the leader."
"Go and call."
Not long after, the leader of the secret guards arrived with a message booklet.
"Princess, here is the news I brought back from Shencheng last time."
Yan Ruyu took it and looked at the page that she had opened. It recorded that according to a vendor selling medicinal herbs, there were indeed many more people from outside the Great Wall buying medicinal herbs in recent days, and the types of herbs were relatively simple.
In the past, they would ask for some ginseng supplements, but this time, they only wanted a few types, and the demand was several times higher than before, and some types were in very small quantities.
Yan Ruyu looked at the herbs carefully and told Linlang, "Go and get Doctor Cao."
"Yes."
Yan Ruyu felt that there must be something fishy going on.
Not long after Linlang left, footsteps were heard outside the door. Yan Ruyu waved her hand and the leader of the secret guards left temporarily.
A figure flashed by and the abbot came in from outside. He was surprised and happy to see her.
"Ruyu, is it really you who came back?"
Yan Ruyu motioned for him to speak in a low voice and pointed inside the house.
The abbot sat down next to her and said in a petty voice, "I thought Song Ping was lying to me, but I didn't expect... why didn't he tell me in advance?"
Yan Ruyu smiled and closed the book: "Isn't this a surprise for you?"
"It's indeed a surprise," the abbot said with a smile, "Did you see the road outside? How is it? Did it not embarrass you?"
"No, it's very good." Yan Ruyu took out something. "I bought this in a small town on the way. It's a souvenir, specially brought for you."
It is a small clay sculpture, which fits perfectly in the palm of the hand. It is a little monk meditating with his eyes closed, and there are two words next to it - leisurely.
The abbot smiled happily: "Especially for me? It's really beautiful. Not bad, not bad. I like it."
Yan Ruyu whispered, "As long as you like it, I'll bring two more people back."
"Who is it?" The abbot was startled, then he thought of something and said in astonishment, "Could he have traveled through time as well?"
Yan Ruyu: “…” How could there be so many time travelers?
"No, she is a person from a space." Yan Ruyu cleared her throat, "She is only in her twenties, and the space has just been opened. Because she didn't know, she once thought she had a strange disease."
"Really?" The abbot thought back to his past. "I used to..."
"You are different. You are older and more stable. Besides, you have heard and seen people of this type in your workplace, so it is not surprising. But she is different. She has never seen this before."
The abbot nodded repeatedly: "Of course, when we first met, we would be scared. What happened next?"
"Later she thought it was a disease and kept treating it by taking a hot spring bath. By the way, there was a sea in her space and she often strolled by the beach."
When the abbot heard about the sea, he was envious: "It's actually the sea? My God, how rich are the resources here? You can eat seafood as you like."
The abbot became more and more envious the more he spoke, and his mouth was watering.
"Then can you talk to her and get us a lobster?"
Yan Ruyu: "...just know how to eat."
"Of course not. I haven't eaten seafood for a long time. Of course I miss it."
"As if you've eaten it before," Yan Ruyu ruthlessly exposed, "We'll talk about the seafood later. The key is that she doesn't know how to use the space yet, so I plan to find someone to take care of her."
"Not with Lou Tingyu..."
"Why are you looking for Lou Tingyu? Look for me. Am I not the best candidate?"
The abbot whispered, "Lou Tingyu is a strange person. You should listen carefully to what he says. Don't believe everything he says. Otherwise, you won't even know when he sells you out."
Although what the abbot said was not very pleasant to hear, it was true.
The abbot is honest and cute, and has a good reputation to protect him, so at first glance, it is easy for people to believe him.
Thinking of this, Yan Ruyu nodded in agreement.
Let the abbot try it first. It would be best if he can help.
She was also somewhat wary and cautious towards Lou Tingyu.
Just after he finished talking to the abbot, he heard Huo Changhe say from behind: "What are you talking about?"
Yan Ruyu turned around: "Is the prince awake?"
The abbot stood up quickly and said, "Your Majesty."
Huo Changhe motioned him to sit down: "Don't be polite, Abbot. I have seen the road you built, and I admire you from the bottom of my heart."
Huo Changhe clasped his hands and bowed: "On behalf of the people of Youcheng, I thank the abbot."
The abbot was feeling a little proud at first, but when he saw how serious he was, he quickly stood up and returned the greeting.
"Your Highness, what are you talking about? I should do my best to help you."
Yan Ruyu took out the pages and changed the subject: "Your Majesty, look at this."
Huo Changhe took it and looked at it. Yan Ruyu said to the abbot, "Go and get ready. Change your clothes and dress decently. I will take you to meet the father and daughter later."
The abbot immediately took his leave and went back to wash and change his clothes.
Huo Changhe's expression became more and more serious: "Where did it come from?"
