Qiu Lu immediately stopped.
He turned back, "Your Highness, do you have any other instructions?"
The light in Zhan Tianye's dark eyes flickered.
Qiu Lu blinked, the Prince...
Why was he silent?
"No need to change."
"Ah?" Qiu Lu was stunned.
Why did the Prince change his orders so quickly?
...
In the small study, Zhan Xiao Li stood on a stool, with a piece of paper and ink in front of him.
He was drawing with utmost seriousness, a slight smile on his lips.
Steward Wang was a little curious. Why had the usually restless young master suddenly become so quiet after returning from the palace two days ago?
Not only that, he had gone straight to the study.
When he knocked and entered, he saw Zhan Xiao Li drawing.
"Is the young master drawing?"
How strange, the young master wasn't looking for his mother.
Zhan Xiao Li was engrossed in his drawing. Upon hearing Steward Wang's words, he looked up and nodded gently, "Mm!"
He wanted to draw his mother!
He used to think the bad woman in the portrait was his mother, but now that he knew the truth, he definitely had to draw his mother's portrait to look at when he missed her!
He could also let Xiao Jing see his mother when he returned later!
His mother was very capable!
Steward Wang looked at Zhan Xiao Li's obedient demeanor and was relieved, "Yes, yes, yes, young master, please draw with peace of mind. If you need anything, just ask."
Zhan Xiao Li nodded and continued drawing.
His mother was Aunt Yun Shu, and he felt like he would wake up smiling from his dreams tonight!
He was really too happy!
Too, too happy!
...
Yun Mansion.
In the bronze mirror, a face that had fully recovered reappeared in Yun Yue Yin's eyes.
She gently stroked her cheek.
Smooth and delicate.
"The young lady's skin looks even better than before! Although the Divine Physician's medicine is expensive, its efficacy is astonishing!" Wen Shu exclaimed.
This kind of medicine was nowhere to be found in the capital!
Yun Yue Yin curved her lips slightly, smiling with a hint of smugness, "I'm also a bit surprised. Truly worthy of being a Divine Physician! By the way, did Xiao Feng enter the city today?"
Wen Shu nodded, "Someone from the Regent's Mansion just informed us that Xiao Feng has already gone to the Regent's Mansion."
Yun Yue Yin looked at her reflection in the bronze mirror, her confidence growing.
Yun Shu's disguised face couldn't compare to hers at all.
"Go and order someone to prepare the carriage, and let's go to the Regent's Mansion now." Yun Yue Yin commanded.
"Yes."
A moment later, Yun Yue Yin boarded the carriage and quickly arrived at the Regent's Mansion.
Upon reaching the Regent's Mansion, Yun Yue Yin eagerly went inside.
She heard that the Regent was in his study.
She hadn't seen the Regent for the past two days and missed him dearly.
She waited outside the study door for a while.
She heard the Regent's voice.
"Come in."
Yun Yue Yin immediately walked in with anticipation.
Her heart warmed slightly.
"Your Highness."
Zhan Ming looked up at Yun Yue Yin as she entered.
Her meticulously drawn features exuded extreme refinement.
Every glance and smile was captivating.
However.
Zhan Ming suddenly felt that Yun Yue Yin's beauty lacked the same allure compared to Yun Shu.
"Your face is healed?" he asked.
Yun Yue Yin smiled and nodded, walked over, and threw herself into Zhan Ming's embrace, "With the Divine Physician around, even if my face were scalded by boiling water, it would heal. The Divine Physician's medical skills are truly superb!"
Zhan Ming touched her cheek. It was indeed soft and smooth.
His heart fluttered, and he pressed Yun Yue Yin onto the table.
Yun Yue Yin's eyes widened, and she let out a soft cry, willingly offering her lips.
After the disarray.
As Yun Yue Yin was dressing, she said, "My second sister was disfigured before she disappeared years ago, and now she wears a human skin mask. If the Divine Physician could examine her face, perhaps Second Uncle would allow me and my father to return to the General's Mansion."
She knew he also wanted them to return to the General's Mansion.
Alas, she wasn't in the capital at the time. If she had been, how could she have let her father and the others leave the General's Mansion!
Zhan Ming raised an eyebrow, "Yun Shu's face was ruined?"
So it was a fake face.
"Yes, Your Highness, you don't actually think Yun Shu's face is that exceptionally beautiful, do you?" Yun Yue Yin asked with a smile.
Zhan Ming's gaze turned cold, "The Divine Physician has already entered the palace today and will not be in the capital for the next two days. There's no need for him to handle such a matter. Tomorrow, I will take you to the General's Mansion, and let's see if General Yun dares to refuse me face!"
This was exactly what Yun Yue Yin wanted!
Yun Yue Yin's smile bloomed like a flower, "Your Highness is so good to me!"
In another two days, she would tell him herself that she was pregnant!
"Your Highness, I'll go see Xiao Feng." Yun Yue Yin had already put on her clothes and wanted to see Xiao Feng.
She had raised that child, Xiao Feng, to be a good boy who only had eyes for her and would obey her commands!
Hahaha!
This would surely be a heavy blow to Yun Shu!
"Mm, go ahead."
As Yun Yue Yin reached the door, she suddenly felt she should hint at something in advance, "Your Highness, if, I mean, if I were pregnant, would you be very happy?"
Would she not just be a concubine then?
A dark glint flashed in Zhan Ming's devilishly charming eyes, but it quickly disappeared, and he let out a wicked laugh, "If you were to bear my son, I would marry you as my Princess Consort."
Yun Yue Yin was overjoyed. Suppressing her elation, she quickly said with a smile, "Your Highness always likes to joke with me. I'm going to see Xiao Feng!"
Soon.
Yun Yue Yin met Gu Xiao Feng.
Gu Xiao Feng was sleeping, probably exhausted from the journey.
Her eyes turned cold. That bastard born to Yun Shu didn't deserve to sleep well!
She coughed lightly.
Gu Xiao Feng groggily opened his eyes and, upon seeing Yun Yue Yin, his eyes widened in joy, "Godmother!"
Yun Yue Yin put on a pretense of smiling, "I haven't seen Xiao Feng in a long time. Godmother really misses you!"
"Xiao Feng misses Godmother too!" Gu Xiao Feng quickly said.
Yun Yue Yin said gently, "You're truly Godmother's good son. Alas, it's a pity that Godmother has many troublesome matters to deal with recently and can't visit you often."
"Is there anything Xiao Feng can do?" Gu Xiao Feng was very sensible and intelligent.
Yun Yue Yin narrowed her eyes and smiled, "How have you been learning from Elder Yin?"
"I've learned quite a bit already."
"There's someone who has been trying in every way to harm Godmother. Can you use poison to make her taste suffering, so she can't harm Godmother anymore?" Yun Yue Yin's eyes gleamed with cunning.
Gu Xiao Feng nodded vigorously, "I can!"
"Our Xiao Feng is so capable! Godmother will tell you where this person is. You're a child, she definitely won't guard against you," Yun Yue Yin added.
"Mm!"
...
General's Mansion.
Yun Chang Feng returned from outside.
As soon as he entered the mansion, his hearty laughter echoed throughout.
Yun Shu, who had just finished preparing medicine to give to Yun Chang Feng, happened to hear his cheerful laughter and became curious.
What could be making him so happy?
Immediately after, a familiar childish voice rang out.
"Wow! The General's Mansion is so big! Xiao Jing has never lived in such a large house before!"
