Rouge knew that her mistress was skilled in medicine, as she herself had been saved by her mistress. However, she hadn't seen her mistress use her medical skills since then, so she only had a vague understanding of them. But seeing how much Shen Ruoxuan admired her, she knew without a doubt that her medical skills were top-notch.
Xiao Ke nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Your Majesty is really amazing."
Xiao Ke thought to himself, "Why can't the Emperor see the Empress's good qualities? Although she has gained weight, her overall demeanor and charm are undeniable. If only the Princess were in the palace, she would surely enlighten the Emperor."
"You two, stop praising me. If you keep praising me, I'll get carried away. As for the matter of Shen Ruoxuan becoming my disciple, you two must keep your mouths shut and don't tell anyone."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Let's go for a walk. Sitting down right after eating isn't good for digestion."
Hai Ling walked out with a bright smile, in a very good mood. Taking Shen Ruoxuan as her disciple was a happy thing. In the future, if she had any minor illnesses or ailments, she could ask Shen Ruoxuan to take a look. No matter how you looked at it, it was all beneficial and harmless.
As for Shen Ruoxuan, he was in a particularly good mood today because he had finally fulfilled his wish of becoming a disciple. Soon he would be learning perfect medical skills from his master, which was truly something to be happy about.
Shen Ruoxuan finds everything beautiful, from the days to the flowers.
However, even the heavens cannot bear to see people so pleased, so his happiness did not last long before it was extinguished.
Someone blocked his way: "Chen Ruoxuan, the master wants to see you."
Shi Mei's pretty face was filled with schadenfreude. She crossed her arms, and her eyes seemed to say, "You're in big trouble."
Shen Ruoxuan's smile froze on his face. He was so happy to have successfully become a disciple that he forgot about that great demon. He probably wouldn't have liked him becoming Hai Ling's disciple, but now that she was his master, Shen Ruoxuan's expression improved a lot.
"Come on, come on, I have some good news to tell him, let him share in my joy."
Shen Ruoxuan, fearless, headed first towards the Left Prime Minister's residence. Shi Mei, behind him, was stunned, a look of doubt flashing in her eyes. Could it be that this kid succeeded? No way, she also wanted to learn that medical skill from the Empress.
The three of them headed towards the Left Prime Minister's residence.
Xi Lingfeng happened to be free today, so he asked Shi Mei to call Shen Ruoxuan over because he remembered something.
Shen Ruoxuan is obsessed with medicine, so once he sees Ling'er's medical skills, how could he possibly stay put? He'll probably do anything to learn her skills, which would mean he'd be pestering her all the time. Thinking of this, Xi Lingfeng's face darkened, which is why Shi Mei and the others guessed that Shen Ruoxuan was going to be in trouble.
In the study.
Shen Ruoxuan looked at Xi Lingfeng with a smile, seemingly unafraid of his cold expression, and spoke first: "Xi Lingfeng, I have some good news to tell you?"
"What?"
Xi Lingfeng narrowed his eyes, a dangerous glint in them. Could it be...?
Ignoring his increasingly sullen face, Shen Ruoxuan laughed arrogantly and said, "I have finally become your disciple."
,
As soon as he spoke, Xi Lingfeng exuded a cold and fierce aura, and then threw something at Shen Ruoxuan: "You actually dared to pester her."
Shen Ruoxuan was startled and quickly reached out to catch the object that was thrown at him. It was a pen holder. He knew that Xi Lingfeng hadn't used much force, otherwise he might not have been able to catch it. With a forced smile, he handed the pen holder over and said slowly, "Anyway, now I have a master. If my master finds out that someone is bullying her disciple, I wonder if she will hold that person accountable?"
This is why he is not afraid of Xi Lingfeng today. Xi Lingfeng will definitely let him go for the sake of his master, so he doesn't need to worry about his life.
As expected, after Shen Ruoxuan finished speaking, the coldness in Xi Lingfeng's dark pupils lessened somewhat, but he still exuded a chilling aura as he stared at Shen Ruoxuan, making him tremble with fear.
"Alright, alright, don't be angry. I'm just asking to become your apprentice. I'm not going to steal your woman. She's my master, and I will treat her with the utmost respect and will never overstep any boundaries. Is that alright?"
Shen Ruoxuan knew perfectly well what the kid was angry about. He just didn't want his woman to be near a man, especially such a handsome man like him. That was just Shen Ruoxuan's smug thinking.
"By the way, if you're not angry, I'll tell you something that will definitely make you happy."
"Um?"
Xi Lingfeng raised an eyebrow, his cold aura dissipating. The matter was already settled, and there was no point in him getting angry. Moreover, the most important thing was Shen Ruoxuan. He would obey him on everything else, but when it came to his medical skills, his words would be useless. He loved medicine as much as his life, so how could he let go of medical skills like Hai Ling's?
"you say./"
"Actually, Master wasn't born fat; she was poisoned?"
"Poisoning?"
Xi Lingfeng was startled, and his expression, which had just calmed down, darkened again. Shen Ruoxuan was most afraid of his sullen face, so he quickly waved his hand and said, "Don't be nervous, it's okay. Her poison only makes people gain weight and won't affect her body. I looked at her carefully before. If Master loses weight, she will definitely be a stunning beauty. Wouldn't you be lucky?"
"I like her whether she's fat or thin."
Xi Lingfeng remained expressionless and coolly replied.
He didn't fall in love with her when she was thin, but when she was plump. He was attracted by her charm and demeanor. So no matter what she looked like, he loved her vibrant and ever-changing soul.
"I know, but Master is a woman, so naturally she wants to become beautiful."
Unlike Xi Lingfeng, Shen Ruoxuan, being a doctor, frequently came into contact with women and naturally had a deep understanding of women's love of beauty. Therefore, he was certain that his master also wanted to lose weight.
"I prepared the antidote for her."
Shen Ruoxuan looked at Xi Lingfeng with a smug expression, thinking to himself, "Now I'm giving you back a beautiful and radiant woman. You should be grateful to me, right?"
Before his thoughts could even settle, he saw Xi Lingfeng's expression suddenly change, and his dark, almost suffocating gaze fixed on him.
Shen Ruoxuan had no idea how he had offended this old man again.
"What are you angry about now?"
"If she loses weight, it will be troublesome in Feng Zixiao's eyes."
Xi Lingfeng understands Feng Zixiao. Feng Zixiao has a fondness for beautiful things. In fact, he still has some different feelings for Ling'er, but because of her appearance, she is in Feng Zixiao's sight and thus she is safe. If she loses weight and really becomes a beauty, will Feng Zixiao be attracted to her?
The thought of other men staring at the person you like is a very unpleasant feeling.
