Chapter 41 Excited Ye Youyou!
The next day.
Duan Tianya quickly brought back news about Guo Youzhi. It was actually not difficult to find out. One could find out by just asking around.
"Your Highness, the news is absolutely reliable. The Jinyiwei in his hometown has also confirmed it. It is indeed true."
Xiao Yan was quite happy when he saw the news brought back by Duan Tianya. With this news, it was only a matter of time before he would get Guo Youzhi into his pocket.
"So, although Guo Youzhi's mother has survived the ordeal, she still hasn't recovered and is still seriously ill?"
Duan Tianya nodded and said, "That's right. At that time, Guo Youzhi's mother was seriously ill and he went everywhere to seek medical treatment but couldn't find any. At that time, Guo Youzhi was just a small fifth-rank judge."
"Finally, we found Hu Zhenghe with the help of someone. Hu Zhenghe went straight to the Imperial Medical Bureau without hesitation. Those old doctors dared not to disrespect Hu Zhenghe."
"So I treated Guo Youzhi's mother, but because she was too seriously ill, she was sent back to her hometown for recuperation after she was out of danger."
"In fact, it's better to say that you go back and wait for death than to recuperate, because there is no medicine to cure this disease."
Xiao Yan had seen the abilities of these imperial doctors, and to be honest, they were far inferior to Ye Youyue. Xiao Yan was confident that Ye Youyue could cure Guo Youzhi's mother's illness.
"What about the other things? Is Guo Youzhi willing to be Hu Zhenghe's running dog for this?"
Duan Tianya shook his head and said, "It's not entirely because of this. I just heard that Hu Zhenghe has something on Guo Youzhi, but I don't know what it is."
"We are still investigating this matter!"
In fact, when it comes down to it, the handle in Hu Zhenghe's hand is the key to checking and balancing Guo Youzhi.
If it was simply out of gratitude for saving his mother, there would be no need to do so. Going against the royal family could be a serious crime punishable by the extermination of all nine generations of his clan. Such a small favor could not justify the loss.
"We must continue to investigate. We must find out what evidence Hu Zhenghe has on Guo Youzhi. If we have this evidence in our hands, it will be a different story."
Duan Tianya naturally understood the interests involved.
"I understand, and I will definitely live up to your expectations!"
Xiao Yan nodded and let Duan Tianya leave.
"San De, go and ask Ye Youyue to come see me!"
Sande curled his lips slightly and said, "Your Highness, please exercise restraint!"
Xiao Yan suddenly felt like he was constipated.
"What are you thinking? I have something important to discuss with you, and besides, in broad daylight..."
Sande didn't dare to stay and ran out.
Xiao Yan shook his head helplessly. Was he really unrestrained?
Soon Ye Youyue hurried over, and Ye Youyou was following her.
"Your servant greets His Highness!"
"This servant pays homage to the prince's brother-in-law!"
"puff!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan spat out the tea that he had just drunk.
"Youyou, stop talking nonsense!"
"Your Highness, please forgive me. My sister is young and ignorant..."
Xiao Yan waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter. If you want to talk about it, that's what we should call it!"
Ye Youyue was delighted when she heard that, but quickly said, "Your Highness has not yet taken a concubine, so don't say that, or the Crown Princess will be unhappy in the future."
"Although I am the prince's servant, I dare not have any improper thoughts!"
Xiao Yan suddenly felt extremely embarrassed. He had made the girl his own but did not give her a legitimate status.
Although I had the intention of revenge at that time, but after getting to know her for some time, I seem to have started to like this girl.
"Okay, get up and talk!"
Ye Youyou still pouted, which was very similar to Ye Youyue.
"I wonder why Your Highness asked me to come here ?"
Xiao Yan then said seriously: "There is a patient . This is his condition. Please take a look at it first. Can he be cured?"
As he spoke, he handed Ye Youyue the information about Guo Youzhi's mother's condition.
Seeing that it was serious business, Ye Youyue did not dare to neglect it. She took it respectfully and began to examine it.
Seeing Ye Youyue frowning sometimes and relaxing sometimes, Xiao Yan was mesmerized for a while.
"cough!"
"Brother-in-law, I know my sister is pretty, but you can't look at her like that!"
Ye Youyou couldn't bear to watch it any longer and could only give a reminder.
Xiao Yan was even more embarrassed.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Your Highness, I should be able to cure this disease, but I need to see the patient. Where is the patient now?"
Xiao Yan was overjoyed when he heard this.
"really?"
As he spoke, he excitedly grabbed Ye Youyue's arm.
"Hiss, Your Highness, you hurt me!"
Xiao Yan then quickly let go of his hand: "Sorry, I was anxious. This patient is very important to me, so..."
Ye Youyou on the side also slapped her forehead, thinking that her sister was beyond saving.
"Your Highness, there is no need to explain. As long as the person is still alive, I will definitely heal him."
After hearing this, Xiao Yan calmed down his excitement.
"Okay, but the person is not in the capital now. You need to go out of the capital to treat him. After he is cured, you can bring him back to the capital!"
Ye Youyue frowned when she heard that, feeling very aggrieved!
"Your Highness, are you going to drive this servant away?"
Xiao Yan was stunned. What did this have to do with anything?
"When did I say I was sending you away? I was asking you to go out and rescue people. You can bring them back after you are done!"
"What are you thinking about?"
Ye Youyue heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Xiao Yan's explanation.
"Then Your Highness, aren't you afraid that I will take this opportunity to run away and not come back?"
This made Xiao Yan very depressed. He was worried that he would drive her away, but he also wanted to ask himself why he could be so entangled if he was afraid that she would run away.
"I feel relieved because you said that in this life, I will be my own person when I live and my own ghost when I die!"
"Your words are enough!"
Ye Youyue also didn't expect Xiao Yan to trust her so much.
"Okay, pack up and set off tomorrow. It's been a tough journey, I will send someone to protect you."
Upon hearing this, Ye Youyou's eyes turned and she quickly said, "Brother-in-law, do you think I can do it? I'll go protect my sister. Besides, I'm familiar with the outside world."
"Sister, you grew up in the palace and don't know the dangers outside. You can rest assured that I am here."
Xiao Yan frowned when he heard this. It was not impossible, but he had not yet figured out who Biyou was. Would it be a bad idea to rashly put Ye Youyou and Ye Youyue together?
"If you are worried about yourself, I will send some more people. This way it will be safer."
Ye Youyou was immediately delighted when she heard this: "Yes, yes, yes, this is safer."
"Sister, please take me with you, okay?"
Ye Youyue was quite helpless about this and said: "Okay, His Highness has spoken, so I'll take you with me!"
Ye Youyou was immediately delighted when she heard this: "Thank you, sister, thank you, Prince brother-in-law!"
"Baji!"
She was so excited that she kissed Xiao Yan on the face!
At this moment, the atmosphere suddenly became quiet. Xiao Yan looked incredulous, and Ye Youyou also looked incredulous.
"Um...I was just too excited, oops!"
