Trial Medicine

Chen Zixuan let out a mouthful of turbid air and said his thoughts: “Ruitian Ling, I want to stay in your palace. There are some medicines in my bag that might be useful for your mother, oh, I mean your concubine. If they’re not used, I can teach you some things here, which you will definitely find useful. But I have a condition, you must promise me >>> 。"Say!" Rui Tianling finally raised his head from the pile of copywriting and looked directly at her, although he only coldly uttered a single word. 。 "I'll live in your manor. Just tell everyone outside that I'm your adopted younger sister. You can make up any birth story for me, and I'll go along with it later. Because I don't really know much about the rules and customs of noble families, so I'd appreciate your help." 。Chen Zixuan tried his best to use polite words to probe Ruitianling. 。Ritianling didn't speak, he just bowed his head to look at the copy again. 。Is this a yes or a no Sigh, it's not the same era, negotiations are so much harder these days. 。Well, I guess I still can't say too much about my own time. I'll have to embellish a bit, or they won't let me leave later on. 。Chen Zixuan swallowed nervously, then started to make up a story: "The medicine I brought is from my master. It's very expensive and difficult to cultivate, so each pill is priceless." 。"I can waive your medical fees. As payment, you need to provide for my food, shelter, and living expenses. Also, if any of the palace concubines bully me or summon me for no reason, you have to protect me. I won't sell them anything, and I haven't learned medicine from my master yet, so I don't know if these elixirs will be effective on your mother. If they don't work, you can't kill me, okay" Rui Tianling let out a cold snort. This girl isn't stupid; she understands how to use his name to protect herself. If she cures the empress, palace concubines and even officials from outside the palace will come seeking treatment. After all, who doesn't have someone sick in their family Then when she encounters patients she can't cure, she'll be in trouble. But if she fails to cure the empress, no matter who blames her, they'll put it on my head. After all, she's a woman and acting under my orders, so naturally, I wouldn't make things difficult for her. Hehe, her calculations aren't bad." 。It's a pity, if you can't cure my mother's illness, what use would I have for you Chen Zixuan shrank back, how did she feel that there was killing intent 。"Hey, you, you promised or not" It felt a lot colder today. 。"Hey, you yokel, you've got a lot of conditions. Are you done Do you really think my fifth brother would care about your medicine It's questionable whether it even works, and you're worried the Empress will want it What a joke!" 。The Sixth Prince naively thought Chen Zixuan was his own treasure medicine, so he set up so many conditions. 。In fact, Chen Zixuan is really precious about these medicines now. After all, who doesn't get sick sometimes, and she can't buy modern medicine here. So, these medicines are like limited-edition lipsticks—once used, they're gone. You say she wouldn't cherish them “What’s wrong with cherishing them Don’t be silly! Besides, I haven’t finished my terms yet. Let me continue. I said that you need to cover my living expenses, but I'm not lazy. I can cook and make tea. If you want to try something different, just ask me and I'll make it for you.” 。"Besides, get me someone better to protect me closely. Male or female, it doesn't matter, alright"

"Twenty-nine!" Today I just sent a few guards back to "study" again. Twenty-nine is the new recruit, he hasn't been on any missions yet, so this is perfect to see what he's capable of."

The guard on duty was immediately at Ruitianling's presence. His eyes were blazing, his emotions were high, and even his voice trembled as he spoke, haha, first day on the job, first mission, how lucky! Ruitianling shook his head inwardly. Too young, couldn't hold back his excitement. But he had good skills, worth training. 。From today onwards, I will be responsible for protecting the young lady personally and will submit a weekly report. 。Ruitianling lost something and gave it to him. 。"My subordinate obeys!" Twenty-Nine had just been transferred from the Dark Guard camp and unfortunately missed everything in the garden today. In his heart, protecting a girl without martial arts was easy. 。Just as he was overjoyed, uncovering the black cloth to reveal the brown order beneath it, he froze. A brown order! This was the second-level mission in the Dark Guard's assignments! 。The first-level mission is a blood order, meaning the chance of survival is very low and the danger coefficient is high. It is usually carried out by the top-tier dark guards in the Prince's Mansion, that is, the dark guards at the level of the top five trainers. 。The second-level mission is the brown order. Compared to the blood order, the danger coefficient of the brown order is a little lower, but the injury or disability coefficient is higher than that of the blood order. 。The third-level mission is the blue order, which are usually assassination missions. Many people are dispatched for these missions, so there are also more guards in this category and they are changed frequently. 。The fourth-level mission is Huang Ling, with a very low danger rating. However, the mission cycle still takes a considerable amount of time. 。The last, or fifth level mission is Bering. It usually involves surveillance and intelligence gathering. The agents assigned to this tier need exceptional light-footedness skills and the ability to conceal themselves. 。 Twenty-Nine found this odd. According to the Dark Guard's regulations, this mission should have been at most a Bai level, or perhaps Huang level. How could it possibly be He level Did this girl have many enemies Though Twenty-Nine was filled with questions, he didn't dare ask the King. So, he obediently stepped aside. 。"Weekly reports! You're blatantly monitoring me! Fine, it's your territory, so it makes sense for you to monitor me too. As long as he can protect me, I don't mind." 。"Looking at him so frail, will he be able to do it" Chen Zixuan eyed the twenty-nine year old with suspicion. 。"Hey, you're really a bumpkin, aren't you The guards at Fifth Brother's manor are notoriously skilled." 。"Sixth Wang looks at you like you don't even know this." 。He's probably just an average twenty-nine year old. Come on, show Grandma what you got! Hmm... let me think. Come on, come on, smash this cup and split this table in two! Chen Zixuan handed him a teacup and pointed to the nearby table before stepping aside to watch the show. 。

The Sixth Prince and the Crown Prince also wanted to see the capabilities of the Dark Guards, so they didn't say anything to stop them.

Twenty-Ninth glanced at Rui Tianling, seeing that he had closed his eyes, knowing he had acquiesced. He reached out to take the teacup and simultaneously drew his sword from his waist. 。A slight and brief "bang" echoed, the tabletop remained unharmed, but the carvings on the table legs were completely severed. The guard held his hand before Chen Zixuan, revealing a white powder on its surface. 。Chen Zixuan was astonished, "Wow, that's amazing! If this skill were in modern times, you could definitely be on a show like 'Who Is the Hero'. Wow, this bowl of broken pieces, if you came back to modern times with me, how much money we could save on crushers and oil! Brother, you're so talented!" Chen Zixuan looked at Twenty-Nine with burning eyes, almost rushing forward to hug him and kiss him. 。Twenty-nine was stared at, retreated to the side, and silently looked up at the sky. 。Hey, you doubt my abilities I spent a long time in the Shadow Guard training camp. 。Rui Tianling was also very satisfied with the performance of the dark guards. He nodded to them, and No. 29 was so happy that he didn't know what to do. 。"Alright, my last condition is that you find me a place, a corner in an alley. That's all I ask for." 。 。Chen Zixuan looked at Ruitianling with sincerity, he was almost wagging his tail. 。"Throw them into the test!" Rui Tianling raised his teacup to take a sip. 。"What!" Chen Zixuan was stunned. 。, what use are you to me I raised you for nothing! Can't even find a simple village woman. Qing'er, chop them up and drag them out to feed the dogs! Feed the dogs!" Murong Yue lashed out with her whip...
