Chapter 177: Beauty
Emperor Jingwen also knew that this kind of thing was a great humiliation for a man, so he immediately tried to comfort them, “I’m sorry for wronging you. In a few days, I will make sure they die a miserable death!”
In the eyes of Emperor Jingwen, being able to save him and the other princes was a great blessing. These people actually dared to ask for rewards, which was really ungrateful.
Even if the other party does not know that his son is the heir to the throne, he still deserves the death penalty.
The slight feeling of gratitude disappeared in an instant, and only anger remained in Emperor Jingwen’s heart.
Emperor Jingwen thought he would see his son’s humiliated face, but when he looked up, he found that it was not the case at all.
The youngest son did not seem as indignant as he had imagined.
At this moment, Huo Tianyi came in cursing, “Hey, kid, you still haven’t said whether you want Fu Guang Duan or Su Jin!”
He was just measuring the size, but he just ran away as soon as he said so, which made Huo Tianyi very angry.However, after seeing the other party, Emperor Jingwen also became angry.
How dare you speak to the prince in such a tone? How presumptuous!
Fu Guangduan is graceful and Su Jin is elegant, each has its own merits. Ye Shuo thought for a moment and said, “I want both.”
“…”
Huo Tianyi took a deep breath: “I warn you, don’t push your luck!”
Medicine Valley is not short of money. After all, the most untouchable people in the world are doctors. Mei Yingzhuo alone is enough to run the entire Medicine Valley. Apart from Mei Yingzhuo, the others also have their own means. They stay in this valley all year round and basically have nothing to spend, so they don’t value money much.
It is one thing to just not take it seriously, but it is another to be taken advantage of.
However, Ye Shuo was somewhat helpless: “When I was at home, I also had a luxurious life. You have seen what I wore before. Which one of them is not better than Fu Guang Duan and Su Jin? My request is not too much, right?”
“Young apprentice and I haven’t even gotten married yet, and you’re treating me so harshly. If you’re so stingy about the money, why bother trying to steal a groom for the apprentice?”
“You are all famous seniors, and the young apprentice is a young hero. You shouldn’t be so unreasonable, right?”
Although Huo Tianyi had lived in seclusion here for decades, he still had his old eyesight and knew that what he said was true. His clothes were indeed very expensive.
Huo Tianyi really had nothing to say.
Ye Shuo changed the subject and sighed, “But there is a saying that goes, if you marry a chicken, you follow the chicken; if you marry a dog, you follow the dog. Since the young valley master is so poor, I will have no choice but to live with her like this…”
Huo Tianyi was a man of reputation and didn’t want his disciple to be accused of being stingy.
After a while, Huo Tianyi gritted his teeth and said, “…just wait!”
It’s just two sets of clothes, what’s the difficulty?
Ye Shuo heard this and looked at his cheap father and his seventh brother. Huo Tianyi felt bad at that time.
As expected, the next moment, he said, “Filial piety is the most important virtue. As a son, how can I enjoy it alone?”
Huo Tianyi understood immediately.
To be honest, Huo Tianyi himself is not that great, but he wants to find a husband for his apprentice who is good in every way.
At the very least, this person cannot be a heartless and ruthless person.
Huo Tianyi’s expression changed several times, and finally he turned and left without saying a word.
Without objection, Ye Shuo took it as his agreement.
When Ye Shuo turned his head again, he saw that his cheap father was gasping for breath with his face flushed red.
Ye Shuo hurried to support him, and only breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that his wound had not opened.
Ye Shuo was about to withdraw his hand, but unexpectedly his cheap father grabbed it tightly, with emotions surging in his eyes. However, before he could speak, Ye Shuo could not help but remind him: “Dad, Fourth Brother and the others haven’t been found yet.”
Emperor Jingwen: “…………”
Not sure if it was an illusion, but Emperor Jingwen just felt a tightness in his chest. After holding it in for a long time, he finally managed to utter a few words: “…I’m sorry for wronging you.”
Actually it’s not that bad.
So far, Ye Shuo hasn’t felt any discomfort.
As for the deal proposed by Huo Tianyi, since he wanted to ask for help, he naturally had to pay a price.
“I’ll go get you and Brother Seven something to eat.”
After Ye Shuo came out, he ran into Mei Yingzhuo soon after.
“Fourth Master.” Ye Shuo greeted the other party very enthusiastically.
For a moment, Mei Yingzhuo wondered whether this was the Medicine Man Valley where he had lived for decades, or the home of the young man opposite.
There are a total of six people living in the Medicine Valley. Mei Yingzhuo doesn’t know martial arts, but he is good at poison techniques, so he barely ranks fourth, so Ye Shuo calls him the fourth master.
Mei Yingzhuo was silent for a moment, then asked coldly, “What’s the matter?”
“There’s nothing else, I just want to ask Fourth Master, how are my father and seventh brother doing?” Ye Shuo was very concerned about their health.
Mei Yingzhuo thought for a moment, then spoke without any emotion: “The younger one is young and strong, there is no big problem, just rest for a while.”
“As for the old one…”
Seeing the other party pause, Ye Shuo hurriedly asked: “How is my father?”
“Although your father was only hit by one sword, the opponent was angry and stabbed him in the wrong place, almost injuring his heart. Plus, he is not young anymore, so his recovery is a little slow. In the future, remember not to let him get too angry or too sad, and maybe the problem will be solved.” Mei Yingzhuo is an extremely skilled doctor. If he had been replaced by a slightly worse doctor this time, with the amount of blood Emperor Jingwen had lost, he might not have been able to be saved.
When Ye Shuo heard this, his expression changed slightly.
He thought that everything would be fine as long as the person was saved, but he forgot that there was such a thing as hidden injury.
“Thank you, Master Four. I will remember it.”
Ye Shuo knew that a doctor’s dedication and his inattention were two completely different situations. In this situation, Ye Shuo had no choice but to rely on the other party.
“Thank you for your concern, Master Four.”
Seeing the pleading look in the young man’s eyes, Mei Yingzhuo was somewhat surprised and felt that he seemed to have underestimated the young man’s character.
But in the end, Mei Yingzhuo didn’t say any words of promise, he just nodded and said “hmm”, indicating that he understood. As for whether to do it or not, that was another matter. Ye Shuo couldn’t force him.
Then, Ye Shuo came to the kitchen of Yaoren Valley.

It’s already afternoon, even the big devil still needs to eat.
Now there is no servant here, and Ye Shuo can’t rely on anyone else, so he can only do it himself.
Fortunately, he was not a lazy person who did not know the difference between grains and vegetables. Even though he had been pampered for so long in ancient times, let alone being a top chef, he should have no problem lighting a fire and cooking a meal.
Now that Ye Shuo needs help from others, his attitude is naturally very proper.
You have to ask when you need it, and you have to work when you need to.
In addition to his stepfather, Seventh Brother’s share, Ye Shuo also made some extra, and several other masters also had shares.
The demons in the Medicine Valley are also human beings, and as human beings they need to eat.
There are both men and women in the Medicine Valley, including two old men, the first master and the fourth master, a charming woman in her forties, a disfigured woman, a man who looks like a boy but is already fifty years old, and a monster who is neither male nor female and is not tolerated by the world.
As usual, several people came to the small kitchen.
None of them were good at cooking and they were too lazy to take care of things. The only purpose of food for them was to fill their stomachs.
But today, something seems a little different.
Ye Shuo was carrying a lunch box and ran into a few people head-on.
Ye Shuo greeted everyone skillfully: “Second Master, Third Master, Fifth Master.”
Although they had only met once in the morning, as the saying goes, the first time is strange, the second time is familiar. We would be dealing with each other frequently in the future. Aren’t these people familiar with Ye Shuo?
While my cheap father and the others are recovering from their injuries, they will have to rely on these people for help.
“I left some food on the stove. If you don’t mind, just use it.”
Several people were silent and no one spoke.
Ye Shuo’s gaze stayed on his second master, the beautiful woman, for a moment. Don’t get me wrong, he didn’t have any other intentions, he just felt that the other person looked vaguely familiar, but when Ye Shuo thought about it carefully, he couldn’t remember what she was.
Soon, Ye Shuo put this episode behind him.
Seeing that they ignored him, Ye Shuo didn’t feel embarrassed. He said hello to them and left.
After he left, they came to the stove and the beautiful woman was the first to open the lid there, and then the aroma of food wafted out.
“…Go and call Lao Si over to see if there is any poison in here.”
The answer is obvious. Ye Shuo is not so stupid as to show off his little tricks in front of Mei Yingzhuo, a professional.
Everyone sat down around the table and looked at the food in front of them quietly. No one spoke or picked up their chopsticks.
In the past, the disfigured woman, that is, the Sixth Master, would usually come over after everyone else had left.
Today seemed a little special. When everyone came to their senses, they saw a woman wrapped tightly, leaning against the door frame.
Although she had not left the house during the past two days, she heard everything that happened outside clearly.
“Boss has brought back an incredible person this time.”
The beautiful woman paused and said, “I’m afraid Huo Tianyi may have done something bad with good intentions this time.”
The boy-like man was puzzled, and the androgynous Third Master next to him said, “We can’t let Zhi’er see him.”
The fifth master finally asked, “Why?”
Although Master Five is old, he has been a child all his life after all. He has never experienced love affairs between men and women, so naturally he does not know how serious it is.
The three of them looked at each other, obviously thinking the same thing.
Although this young man has a top-notch appearance, he is not fatal alone. If his personality and the way he does things are taken into account, their apprentice will not be able to beat him.
If we really meet and get married, my heart will be devoted to him sooner or later.
Add to that the handsomeness of the young man, where had the young girl seen anything like this? How could she resist such a great temptation?
Just now, the scene of the young man washing his hands to make soup and standing under the sunset with a smile was enough to make the beautiful woman’s heart beat faster, not to mention the young disciple.
As expected of an old hand, the beautiful woman saw through Ye Shuo’s true nature at a glance.
This kid is definitely not a good person.
Just because the two old guys don’t understand doesn’t mean they don’t understand.
So, the next day, when Huo Tianyi finally came back with two servants and a pile of clothes, he heard the news that the beautiful women demanded that Ye Shuo and his party be driven out of the valley.
“Why?!”
When Huo Tian heard this, he immediately became angry.
“I worked so hard to get him back, why are you letting him go just like that?!”
