Attracted by Wen Si’s chanting, Beichen Yuan’s originally chaotic mind gradually calmed down. He closed his eyes and listened quietly.
After listening for a while, I found that someone’s voice stopped.
When I opened my eyes, I saw that it was a young monk carrying water who had arrived.
Wen Si stopped reciting temporarily. She put down the wooden bucket on her shoulder, stepped on a big rock by the stream, picked up one of the wooden buckets and squatted down to fetch water.
She had never done any work in this life and had very little strength. She could only fetch half a bucket of water at a time and then lift it up with difficulty.
But when he picked it up, some of it accidentally spilled out and spilled at her feet.
Wen Si, who had not yet realized the seriousness of the situation, put down the half bucket of water and picked up another empty wooden bucket to fetch water. But this time, just as she was about to lift it up, the puddle of water under her feet suddenly made her slip.
“ah!”
With a splash, Wen Si, who couldn’t stand firmly, fell into the stream.
Beichen Yuan’s pupils shrank, and the next second he jumped off the bridge, as if he was ready to save someone.
But when he jumped in, he found that the water in the stream was less than half a person’s height.
Wen Si, who also noticed this, quickly stood up from the stream, then looked back blankly, and saw Beichen Yuan standing under the bridge, wearing a black robe, with fluttering silver hair and a calm expression.
“Your Highness, the Prince Regent? What are you doing…?”
Wen Si looked surprised.
She realized there was someone else here because she heard some noise behind her when she stood up just now, but she didn’t expect it was Beichen Yuan.
Beichen Yuan hummed, looked away somewhat unnaturally, and said in a light voice: “There is a Buddhist temple not far from here. The temple is noisy, but it is quiet here.”
Wen Si was stunned for a moment before she realized that Beichen Yuan was explaining to her that he came from the Buddhist temple to find some peace and quiet, and he was not a weird person.
“I see. Your Highness, please continue. I will not disturb you any further.”
Wen Si found that he seemed a little strange, but she didn’t ask any more questions. She turned around and went ashore carefully, but found that her other wooden barrel was missing.
When she looked up again, she saw that the wooden barrel that had fallen into the water had floated along the stream to Beichen Yuan’s front.
Beichen Yuan: “…”
He reached out and scooped up the barrel, then silently walked ashore with it and brought it to Wen Si.
“Thank you, Your Highness the Regent.”
Wen Si thanked him subconsciously.
After she finished thanking him, she realized that since their first meeting, the phrase she had said most often to this rumored terrifying regent was “thank you”.
Wen Si reached out to take the wooden barrel somewhat embarrassedly, especially since it was considerately filled with half a bucket of water, so she didn’t have to fetch it anymore.
But after Wen Si caught the barrel, Beichen Yuan didn’t let go for some reason.
Beichen Yuan is tall, and although Wen Si is not that short, she always looks like a dwarf when standing in front of him.
He looked down at the “dwarf” in front of him, his eyes narrowed slightly.
“Thanks without words are not sincere. You don’t need to thank me next time. But if I have a request, will you agree to it?”
“Of course…it depends on what His Royal Highness the Regent wants. If I am unable to do so…”
Wen Si also felt that empty thanks were indeed insincere, but she wouldn’t be so stupid as to agree to everything just based on his words.
Beichen Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly.
good.
Quite vigilant.
“Don’t worry, I won’t sell you out.”
He finally loosened his grip on the barrel.
Wen Si took the barrel but still did not comment.
Beichen Yuan couldn’t help but let out a low chuckle: “Okay, I have already collected the medical books and will send them to you tomorrow.”
“Thank you very much…”
Before Wen Si finished speaking, she saw Beichen Yuan opposite her raise his eyebrows.
All right.
“If there is anything that your Highness the Regent needs help with, I will do my best if I can.”
Although she didn’t think she could do anything to help the powerful Regent.
But after she agreed, the other person’s expression became noticeably better.
“Nothing more for today. The King will come to see you tomorrow.”
Wen Si: “…Okay.”
After Wen Si went back, Beichen Yuan returned to the temple in a good mood.
The subordinates who had been looking for him everywhere were getting extremely anxious and even dragged an old monk along to look for him. They were sweating profusely when they saw Beichen Yuan coming back leisurely from outside.
“Your Majesty!”
Deputy General Gao Yao cried out in a shrill voice, “You are finally back. Where did you go? We almost went down the mountain to call the Black Flag Army to surround the South Mountain and search for you!”
In the past two years, their prince’s headaches have become more and more severe. Now, almost every time an attack occurs, he loses control and even hurts himself.
Some people say that the prince had killed too many people and was burdened with too much sin, which is why he got this cursed disease.
Some people also said that their prince was born with an unlucky star, and his silver hair was an ominous sign.
Because God is displeased with you, you are born with strange hair and suffer from this evil disease that harms both yourself and others.
Of course, Gao Yao and others didn’t believe these words at all.
They were all friends of life and death who had accompanied the prince in battles for many years. They did not know whether the prince was an evil star or not. They only knew that it was the prince who led them to kill foreign enemies, defeat enemy countries, and establish the vast and peaceful country for the Ming Dynasty.
That’s why they don’t believe the ominous words said by those quack doctors.
They thought that the prince was just sick.
Since it is an illness, they will accompany the prince to be treated.
One day a cure will be found.
So in order to prevent the prince from getting hurt, Gao Yao and the others would always try to stay by his side when Beichen Yuan fell ill.
But today, unexpectedly, in just a blink of an eye, Beichen Yuan, who was originally listening to the old monk chanting, suddenly disappeared!
By the time they found it, they almost turned the entire Jinnan Temple upside down to search for it.
However, just when they were looking for him, the prince who they thought might have suddenly fallen ill and lost control somewhere and might hurt them actually came back as if nothing had happened?
Beichen Yuan coughed lightly and said, “I didn’t go anywhere. I just thought you guys were too noisy, so I went to the back for a walk.”
Gao Yao and his companions felt extremely aggrieved.
They just acted a little surprised because they had never been to a temple before.
Why does the prince still dislike them?
Gao Yao’s eyes were dim, and when he was about to say something, he suddenly realized, “Your Majesty, your eyes…? Have you already had an attack?!”
He asked in a worried voice.
