“Then, can you go and scout the path with Tong Sanlang later?” Yang Ye asked.
He had brought 35,000 people to encircle and suppress the Tianlong Gang, but now he’s holed up in County Town, not daring to go out.
This won’t do.
He must come up with a solution.
Tong Sanlang is skilled in light-footedness, but he doesn’t dare to go for fear of being poisoned again. However, if Bei Lingsu could go with him, then this task would be much more manageable.
Bei Lingsu’s light-footedness is better than Tong Sanlang’s, and she knows medical skills. With the two of them going together, they’re sure to return safely.
Upon hearing this, Bei Lingsu finally raised her head from the tempting food before her, saying in surprise, “Me, go?”
“I know this is an excessive request, but I have no other options. I assure you with my status as the Prince of Wei that I will thank you profusely once this is over,” Yang Ye said, putting on his most sincere expression.
Bei Lingsu blinked her almond-shaped eyes, not saying a word.
She was just passing by, and now they were asking her to take on such an important mission–truly…
She didn’t want anything at all!
She could gather the herbal medicine she needed herself.
She held her breath and asked cautiously, “What if I refuse?”
“From now on, I’ll provide all the herbal medicine your family needs each year,” Yang Ye immediately said. “As long as Daqi has it, I will definitely find a way to get it for you.”
Bei Lingsu “…”
Gathering herbal medicine is crucial for experience, for seeing the landscapes of Daqi, understanding the warmth and coldness of human society, and gaining worldly experience. Yang Ye’s offer might be well-intended, but it could easily end up sheltering her family members like greenhouse flowers!
It truly wasn’t a proposal that could stir her heart.
Seeing her reaction, Yang Ye knew his proposal wasn’t working. He furrowed his brows in distress. What should he do?
This was the only solution he had, but Bei Lingsu was not from Daqi–she had no obligation to lend a hand.
After some thought, he asked again, “What if Qiao Xiaomai makes you some more delicious food? The things she makes taste amazing. Some can even be preserved for a long time and can certainly be taken home to eat.”
Bei Lingsu “…”
Now that was tempting.
Her family lived on Sea Island, and such delicious food should indeed be shared with them too.
But, she cocked her head and asked, “Can you really direct Miss Qiao?”
“I’ll go and talk to her,” Yang Ye immediately stood up.
Bei Lingsu nodded, “Alright then!”
So, Yang Ye immediately hurried off to the kitchen. Qiao Xiaomai had just fought back her tears when she heard the Zhang Family’s shouting, and was now sitting there in a daze. As Yang Ye rushed in without noticing her expression, he said directly, “Miss Xiaomai, I–on behalf of Grandpa Emperor–will forgive your debt of fifty million. Would you please make some more delicacies for Miss Bei?”
Qiao Xiaomai had just been pushing back against him, and he didn’t have much face to maintain in front of her.
He could only trade the debt with Qiao Xiaomai.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai came out of her daze, her peach blossom-shaped eyes looking somewhat fixedly at Yang Ye, “Fifty million?”
“Yes, fifty million,” Yang Ye reaffirmed, gesturing with a hand, “Rest assured, I can definitely get Grandpa Emperor to agree to forgive the debt. And if it can’t be waived, I will pay the fifty million myself.”
At that, Qiao Xiaomai raised an eyebrow, “Are your coffers that full?”
Surely Yang Hao didn’t have that much, did he?
“I do what I say. Will you agree?” Yang Ye asked.
Qiao Xiaomai lowered her gaze, “Why?”
“Because we need her and Tong Sanlang to scout together. Her light-footedness and medical skills make her the best scout. If we want to successfully eliminate the Tianlong Gang this time, we can’t do it without her,” he explained.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai’s eyelashes trembled, “Alright.”
