Does the prince take medicine?

Chapter 14: Daughter-in-law Recovery Plan-Pick Up

Three years have passed by in a hurry, and in the blink of an eye, it is spring again.In the city of Yangzhou, there is no shortage of bustling hawkers, and people come and go on the street in an endless stream.

Among them, the most eye-catching is a pair of male and female groups.The tall man was dressed in black, with an expressionless face and sharp eyes like sharp knives. Even though he had a handsome face, no one dared to look at him a second time.On the other hand, the young man in Tsing Yi, who is a head shorter than him, is not as good-looking as the man in black, but he is still pretty and cute. He wears a big hat on his head, holds a lot of food in his hands, and keeps stuffing it into his mouth. Wanwan's eyes are extremely clear, sending out the message "I'm happy" all the time.

When the boy stood motionless in front of the snack stand again, drooling, the man in black who had been silent all this time finally said helplessly, "Ye Lian, we still have things to do."

Ye Lian didn't even look at Gu Heng behind him, she just stared at the meat bun in front of her without blinking: "But I haven't eaten anything from Yangzhou for a long time."

"..." Gu Heng moved his hand to the purse at his waist without any trace, "It's all the same."

"Where is it the same?" Ye Lian was very depressed, took a hard bite of the food in his hand, and kept muttering in his heart that Gu Heng's old problem had happened again, "The food in Yangzhou is obviously much better than the food in Suzhou!"

"The food in Suzhou is obviously sweeter, with a hint of peach blossom flavor. Although it's delicious, I'm not used to it." Ye Lian slurred his speech while eating, "The food in Yangzhou should be lighter and fresher. .This taste is more in line with my taste."

Listening to Ye Lian's clear analysis of the difference between the two, Gu Heng sighed, "That's the total amount of silver your lord gave us. You've already eaten more than ten pennies, and if you eat any more, you'll be gone."

Ye Lian didn't know how to do abacus, and didn't learn how to convert money into silver. He tilted his head and calculated in his head for a long time, but he couldn't figure it out. He couldn't bear to ask Gu Heng how much it was worth, so he curled his lips depressedly, and put down his harsh words: "This time, you can eat money. No, after the task is completed, I will eat all over this street!"

After saying that, Ye Lian shifted his gaze, turned his head and walked ahead.

Gu Heng breathed a sigh of relief behind him, fortunately Ye Lian is easy to coax, otherwise he would have to spend money again.

After all, the adults don't give much money, so it's always right to save some money.

Ye Lian walked in front, looking at everything that was familiar but unfamiliar around her, she suddenly felt an illusion as if she had passed away.

Three years ago, he fled here so embarrassingly, and three years later, he returned to this place full of memories.It would be a lie to say you are unhappy.

Three years ago, Ye Lian woke up in a daze and found out that he was brought to Suzhou City by Gu Heng and his little friends.The peach blossoms in Suzhou City are notoriously beautiful, and they are as famous as the willow trees in Yangzhou City.

Waking up that day, the first thing Ye Lian saw was the peach blossom petals falling from the window, which was extremely beautiful.

Then he saw the man in white who opened the door and came in.Although the man had a handsome face, the disgust in his eyes couldn't be stopped.Ye Lian felt that kind of repulsion all of a sudden. When he first woke up, he was a little confused, so he asked directly.

Unexpectedly, the man sneered and said a lot of words that Ye Lian could not understand.Seeing that Ye Lian was distracted and didn't listen, the man folded his chest and frowned, leaned against the door, and said, "Get out of here quickly when you wake up, don't pretend to be stupid."

Ye Lian just said "ah", then scratched his head and slowly got up from the bed, walked to the door and suddenly woke up, grabbed the man's sleeve and asked anxiously: "Where's Gu Heng?"

"What does it have to do with you?" The man pulled back his sleeves, "Get out of here when you wake up, don't make me say it a third time."

As soon as Ye Lian heard it, his temper became stubborn as soon as his head became hot, and he stood there and hummed dissatisfiedly: "If I don't leave, what can you do to me?"

"Do you really think that I can't do anything to you?" The man lifted Ye Lian's skirt, ignored Ye Lian's hastily struggling, turned around and was about to throw him out.

"You, let it go!" Ye Lian had difficulty breathing because of the neck being strangled by the skirt, and her cheeks were flushed.He slapped the man's hand that lifted his skirt vigorously, and pulled those big hands with all his strength.It's a pity that those hands looked slender, but in fact they couldn't break free like steel, and could only watch helplessly as they got closer and closer to the gate.

At this moment, Gu Heng, who arrived in time, suddenly appeared behind the man, and before the man could react, he snatched Ye Lian back and protected him behind his back, and calmly said: "My lord has something to call you, go quickly."

"Gu Heng!" The man said angrily.

"Yi Ran, don't make your lord wait too long." Gu Heng turned his head away, unwilling to look directly at the angry man in front of him.

Yi Ran gave Ye Lian who was hiding behind Gu Heng a vicious look, turned around and left without stopping.

Seeing this, Ye Lian was about to hug Gu Heng excitedly, but suddenly thought of what Yi Ran said before, glanced outside the door, and said anxiously: "Gu Heng, do I have to leave here?"

Ye Lian is reluctant to leave, after all, he doesn't know how to live after leaving.However, Gu Heng brought him out to the utmost of humanity, even if he refused, Ye Lian would not be able to say anything.

At worst, I will be a beggar in the future.Ye Lian cheered for herself in her heart.

"No," Gu Heng said, "my lord allows you to stay."

"Great!" Ye Lian clapped his hands excitedly before the words finished, and pulled Gu Heng's sleeve to go back to the original room, "Come, come, let's have a good chat now, how about it?"

"But you have to pass the assessment." Gu Heng added with a cold expression, not paying any attention to Ye Lian's disappointed expression, "Together with another newcomer, prove the value of your existence as an organization."

The other newcomer is called He Chang. Ye Lian read it over and over again, and always felt that there was a meaning of "why life is capricious" in it.The young man was a little shorter than Ye Lian, dressed in gray clothes, from a distance, he looked like a little thorny beast that had run away from home.

Ye Lian came closer to meet him, no matter how he looked, he felt familiar, but he had never seen this boy before.And that boy also opened his eyes wide, as if he couldn't believe Ye Lian's arrival.

"you……"

"you……"

The two opened their mouths at the same time, and shut their mouths in embarrassment at the same time.

The gray-clothed boy seemed to know Ye Lian's whereabouts very well, so he said first, "How did you get in?"

Ye Lian waved his hand, but his mind wandered to the other end.The voice of the boy in gray was slightly hoarse, and there was a feeling of deliberately concealing it, and this voice was even more familiar to Ye Lian.

"Cough, coincidence, coincidence..."

"Oh." After hearing this, He Chang restrained his expression and stood upright in the same place without looking sideways.

Ye Lian was also embarrassed to make any noise, and stood beside He Chang quietly, looking at He Chang's face repeatedly with his eyes from time to time, as if trying to see through his face.

He Chang bowed his head silently, blocking Ye Lian's gaze with his hair.

The examiners came very quickly, and after a while, a tall woman entered the lobby.The woman was dressed in tight black clothes, and her long hair was tied high on her head with a headband. Her steps were very light and steady, which made Ye Lian feel nervous again.

The woman sat down and said coldly: "The assessment is very simple...tell me what you are good at."

He Chang was the first to answer: "Know a little about astronomy and geography, and mechanical manufacturing."

The woman nodded, and casually pointed to the wooden block on the ground beside her, motioning for He Chang to make it for her on the spot.

"What about you?" the woman asked.

Ye Lian tugged at his sleeve, his forehead was covered with fine beads.He doesn't know the knowledge of those literati, and he can't even write neatly. At most, he just knows how to farm.In this way, how can he fight?

He Chang, who was sitting on the ground as a "machine", glanced at him.

Just as Ye Lian was scratching his head, he suddenly caught sight of the mahogany table and chairs beside him, thinking about his strangeness at that time, he said bravely, "I, I can identify many valuables."

"Oh?" The woman's voice rose, but there was still no expression on her face, "Tell me."

The answer to this question is only Ye Lianmeng's. At this time, he was asked to cry, so he glanced at the mahogany tables and chairs, thought for a while and said, "For example, the tables and chairs in the lobby are It is precious red sandalwood. This wood is lustrous and has a fragrance. After being exposed to the air for a long time, it turns purple-reddish brown.

The woman nodded slightly: "Yes, well said."

Ye Lian thought for a while, then pointed to the wool carpet on the floor, and said: "For example, this wool carpet uses a variety of dyes to paint the pattern on the surface, and the lines are soft and distinct. If you look closely, you can see that it is more abstract. These people have strange postures, and their clothes are not neatly dressed, but the corners are very clean, which is enough to show that the maker did not do this on purpose. Therefore, this wool carpet is probably from a foreign country in the West. After all, many Central Plains people can't understand these things, so they can't make such blankets."

"Papa—" the woman's cold face showed a rare smile, "You passed the test."

After all, He Chang on the other side also stood up and handed the finished product to the woman.The woman nodded in satisfaction, and said to them before leaving: "My name is Chu Lan, and I will assign tasks to you. Do you understand?"

"Understood!" Ye Lian lowered her head, suppressing the excitement that was about to rush out of her heart, and the corners of her mouth kept lifting.

When the sound of Chu Lan's footsteps finally disappeared, Ye Lian raised his head, put his hands on He Chang's shoulders with a smile on his face, and said, "How do you feel?"

He Chang looked at him silently, his eyes contained too many things that Ye Lian couldn't distinguish, then he patted Ye Lian's hand on his shoulder with one hand, hummed softly, and left without looking back.

Ye Lian didn't know how to provoke He Chang to be angry, she just stood there and watched He Chang leave like this, and it took a long time for her to recover.

The excitement in his heart was gradually replaced by grievances, and Ye Lian suddenly had the urge to rush over to him and ask "what's the matter".

But why do you think so?Ye Lian beat his head, resisting the longing in his heart, and walked steadily towards the backyard.

Since then, Ye Lian has started a simple and relaxed life of daily study and appreciation, ordinary travel and tasks.Ye Lian didn't see the man he met on the first day again, and He Chang always had a cold face and no expression when he saw him.

Even if Ye Lian intends to apologize, He Chang ignores him.

Of course, this organization is not doing this kind of bounty mission.Gu Heng had told Ye Lian that the organization was actually a private visit by the Taishanghuang incognito, and it was organized on a whim. At first, it was just for fun, but later the organization became more rigorous, and it even saved the Taishanghuang's life when necessary. Since then, the Taishanghuang decided to reuse this Unnamed organization, let them help them detect civilian information, and solve officials who want to bring down without anyone noticing.

And this task is the most important and difficult task Ye Lian has received. Chu Lan asked him to partner with Gu Heng to investigate the reasons for some riots in Yangzhou City in recent years.

"You don't need to wear human skin masks," Chu Lan said.

Therefore, Ye Lian and Gu Heng came to Yangzhou City obediently without any pretense.

Looking up at the cloudless sky and sighing, Ye Lian stopped and looked at the food stall beside him, suddenly wanting to eat again.

"Gu Heng, it's noon, it's time to eat."

>>>Small Theater

Gu Heng: ...Why do you want to eat again?

Ye Lian (laughing): No way, the food in Yangzhou suits my taste too much.

Gu Heng (pushing lips): Well, you can eat less later, just taste it.

Ye Lian: ... so ruthless!

——The small theater is just for entertainment, the characters may collapse QuQ——

The author has something to say:

Hey, another important character appeared [Maybe it's not important, you can guess, He Chang's identity, no prize for correct answer 2333

Yes, Yi Ran is Gu Heng's CP, with an arrogant personality and doesn't like Ye Lian.Just a passerby.
