Chapter 132 Yi Jing



Chapter 132 Yi Jing

Zhou Chang was frightened and could not help but slow down his pace and tiptoe over.

"What are you looking at, sir?" Zhou Chang looked around with his eyes wide open but saw nothing.

"Uh……"

Zhong Yu suddenly stiffened and took a breath of cold air.

"boom……"

The whole person fell to the ground.

Zhong Yuben was staring intently ahead when Zhou Chang suddenly appeared behind him. He was so frightened that he fainted before he even had time to look back.

"Mr. Zhong?" Zhou Chang called softly and hurriedly squatted down to hold Zhong Yu.

Almost, in the vegetable garden in the front hall, a dark, round shadow emerged from the vegetable garden.

"Uh..." Zhou Chang was so scared that he didn't dare to make a sound and sat down on the ground.

"Who, who is there?" a figure in the vegetable garden spoke.

"Monkey?" Zhou Chang recognized the voice as that of a skinny monkey. "Monkey, is that you? Is that you?"

"Your Highness?" The skinny monkey also recognized Prince Yi's voice. He straightened up from the vegetable patch and walked up the steps to the front hall.

Zhou Chang's heart, which had been jumping up to his throat, finally calmed down. He thought of Zhong Yu again and quickly stood up to pinch his Ren Zhong. "Monkey, come and help me, Mr. Zhong has fainted again."

"Oh, why did you faint again, sir?" The skinny monkey put something in his arms and jumped over. He skillfully took out the medicinal oil from the white porcelain gourd and pulled out the stopper for Zhong Yu to smell.

"Uh...", less than three breaths later, he slowly woke up, opened his eyes and saw Zhou Chang above his head, then he took a breath, "Prince? Is it you?"

Zhou Chang was quite apologetic: "It was dark, and I suddenly appeared just now and startled you, sir."

"No, no, it's..." Zhong Yu was still frightened and pointed outside the door, "Just now there was a sneaky figure crawling on the ground over there."

"Hehe, that's not true. Mr. Zhong must have seen it wrong." The skinny monkey was unwilling to admit it.

Zhong Yu squinted hard and recognized the skinny monkey: "You..., was it you in the vegetable garden just now?"

Zhou Chang was embarrassed by the false alarm, and did not want to talk about it any more. He changed the subject: "It's all because there are not many people in our palace. It's dark, and there are no palace soldiers patrolling around. I don't even see anyone lighting a torch."

"Ahem, Your Highness forgot," the skinny monkey helped Zhong Yu stand up, "You said before that there is nothing valuable in the front yard of the front hall, so there is no need for patrols. Lighting torches also wastes lamp oil, so it is better to save as much as possible."

"Ahem..." Zhou Chang couldn't slap himself in the face, so he could only "admire" that Prince Yi Fengming was still the ancient version of "Grandet", so he had to change the subject, "By the way, where was Mr. Zhong going just now?"

Zhong Yu was frightened and shook his head before he remembered, "Oh, yes, I wanted to find my classmate Ma Zhihong and tell him the good news as soon as possible."

In the moonlight, Zhou Chang saw that he was still pale and weak, and couldn't help but advise him: "Sir, you are too impatient when doing things. Except for life and death, everything is just a matter of a day or two. Don't work so hard."

Zhong Yu also seemed to be leaving: "Yes, if Your Majesty has nothing else to tell me, I would like to leave first and go back to rest."

Zhou Chang looked at the thin and emaciated figure in front of him, and thought of Zhong Yu's frequent fainting problem, so he couldn't help asking, "Sir, what is wrong with you? There are many excellent doctors in Jindu City. You don't have to worry about the money. Why don't you find a time to ask him to come and see you? It's better to get a thorough treatment."

In Prince Yi's memory, Zhong Yu had always been like this before he came to the palace. He would never say anything when asked, and would always refuse when advised to see a doctor.

Zhong Yu smiled, but shook his head in the end: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I am fine. No other doctor can cure me. As long as I take the homemade pills, I will be fine."

Although Zhou Chang was worried, she knew that Prince Yi Fengming's advice had not worked before, so it was useless for her to say more and she could only watch.

Before Zhong Yu's back disappeared from her sight, she suddenly remembered that she had originally come to Zhong Yu to ask for money, but she forgot about it when she was interrupted.

Forget it. I just advised people not to rush things in a day or two. Let’s talk about it tomorrow.

Zhou Chang watched Zhong Yuyi leave and turned around, then took the skinny monkey to the back hall. He also noticed that the skinny monkey's clothes were covered in mud and there was something big bulging on his chest. He couldn't help but ask, "What were you doing just now? Why do you look like you just came back from outside?"

Seeing Zhong Yu walking away, the skinny monkey took out a bottle the size of his forearm from his pocket and said mysteriously, "Your Majesty, don't ask me yet. This is a good thing I got. Let's talk about it when we get back."

"Huh? What is it?" Zhou Chang wondered what was going on tonight. He was either sneaky or mysterious.

The skinny monkey didn't answer and walked back with Zhou Chang in his arms.

Entering the study, Skinny Monkey placed the bottle on the table and lit the oil lamp first.

Zhou Chang could see clearly with the help of the light. It turned out to be a dark blue gilded porcelain bottle, similar to the bottle used to store white wine in his previous life.

Some familiar memories vaguely came to mind, but I couldn't figure it out clearly, so I had to ask again: "What exactly is in this?"

The thin monkey did not answer immediately, but smiled mysteriously: "Your Majesty, if I tell you, please don't be angry."

Zhou Chang couldn't help but reach out to open the bottle cap.

The skinny monkey held it down and said, "My Lord, be careful. You can't use this thing carelessly."

"What on earth is it?" Zhou Chang's patience was almost exhausted.

The skinny monkey still said the same thing: "Your Majesty, please promise me first, don't be angry."

"Okay." Zhou Chang didn't care. The skinny monkey would never harm Prince Yi.

The skinny monkey waited until Zhou Chang walked around the table and sat down in the chair before speaking: "This is something Aunt Jing asked me to get. I originally said not to tell the prince, but Shopkeeper Fu said that this thing is very powerful and must be used with caution."

Zhou Chang leaned back in his chair and motioned for Skinny Monkey to sit down as well: "Then you should start from the beginning."

When no one was around, the skinny monkey was very casual. He sat down in another intact chair and took out a handful of peanuts from his arms: "Hey, can't I talk while eating? I haven't had time to eat dinner yet."

"Were you picking peanuts in the dark in the vegetable garden just now?" Zhou Chang should have thought of it earlier. With Skinny Monkey's temper, he couldn't be doing it for any other reason.

The skinny monkey grinned: "Yes, I ate two cucumbers and almost dropped the bottle in the vegetable garden. When the prince saw it, I was looking for the bottle."

The more Zhou Chang looked at the bottle in front of him, the more he felt like he had seen it somewhere before: "What on earth is it that is worth skipping meals to get this thing?"

The skinny monkey peeled a few peanuts and chewed them first, then he began to tell the story without a care in the world: "Originally, Aunt Jing asked me to go to the Four Flavors Pharmacy and ask Manager Fu for a few 'Yuan Yang Pills' to replenish the prince."

Zhou Chang thought for a while before he remembered what "Yuan Yang Dan" was.

That aphrodisiac pill that costs one hundred taels per pill.

His face suddenly turned bad.

"Your Highness just promised not to be angry." The skinny monkey reminded confidently, "I went to the Four Flavors Pharmacy and told Manager Fu about the situation. Manager Fu said that the Yuanyang Pill was a trick to fool others and was useless, so he gave this to me."

Zhou Chang finally remembered where he had seen the dark blue gilded bottle in front of him. "Do it boldly, don't be afraid, no one cares anyway;

Even if someone cares, what is a person? "
