Chapter 340: Two Girls (4)

“Lord.” Xie Yan said discreetly.

Lord Ling looked up at him – Xie Yan was getting very old and he kept messing up the situation, but he had been working with him for so long so he was not going to punish him at this moment. However, he had to employ someone else to run the errands in the future.

Lord Ling nodded. “You have worked hard. I will speak with Chaoyan myself. Take a break and I will keep you informed.”

Xie Yan nodded in dumbfounded confusion. Sweat already wetted his back. The Lord was not punis.h.i.+ng him directly, but that was his punishment, after all. Five years pa.s.sed, and he finally came to this stage.

Xie Yan nodded, bowed to him and left.

Lord Ling threw a brief look at him and stopped thinking about Xie Yan. He was a Lord, and when he married Princess Consort, he made the decision directly when he spotted the right woman. He had never gone out to beg the girl for approval.

Anyway, it was not going to be a disgraceful thing, if he did it this time.

The Elder Miss was quite fun, it seemed.

He put away the stuff in the study, got up and said, “Someone, get the wagon ready, we are going to Saint College.”

***

At Saint College.

Gu Chaoyan just spoke with the servant of the Lin Family and had a very complicated look on her face.

She thought that Lord Ling was indeed the most superst.i.tious man she had ever seen. Just because of what the monk said, he got so crazy that he was going to marry two girls.

She shook her head. “Sword One, tell Zhou Huaijin about this now.”

Sword One could not wait one more minute. She took off directly when she received the order.

Lord Ling was craving for her master’s woman! That would not work.

Gu Chaoyan went back to her own yard.

The moment she arrived, Li Yuanxiang came with an anxious look on her face. She said, “Chaoyan, the Dean wants both of us to go to the court with him.”

To the court?

“What is going on?” Gu Chaoyan asked. That was quite abrupt.

“It seemed that a fight arose between us and the mole of North Qi, and two of our generals got seriously injured. The Dean said that I have to bring you there, so let’s go with Mr. Xue.” Li Yuanxiang said quickly.

Gu Chaoyan understood what was going on, so she nodded and followed instantly.

No one talked on the way. The wagon ran at the highest speed towards the imperial court.

***

At the court.

It was not the first time for Gu Chaoyan to come to the court, but it was the first time for her to be greeted in such a hurried way. The eunuch guided Xue Feihan and the two girls directly to the imperial hospital.

At this moment, numerous imperial doctors were already standing outside the hospital.

Xue Feihan helped them to make a way in.

The Dean took hold of Gu Chaoyan at the sight of her. “Chaoyan, we used all of your pills, but they did not work. What should we do?”

Gu Chaoyan threw a look at the wounded man.

The man had an arrow on him, which was almost at the heart.

Her pills were excellent, but they only worked when it came to healing and driving away poison. The most fatal wound was the arrow at the moment, so as long as the arrow was in his chest, the man would not live

The pills were great, but they did not work at this moment.

“The Young Duke is dying, better prepare for his funeral,” one of the imperial doctors said.
