After the arranged marriage, I pampered the sickly regent.

Chapter 146: Not Interested

"long time no see."

Ye Qingwu glanced at Lu Yin and said indifferently, "Valley Master Lu, your memory is really bad. It was just yesterday, how come it's been a long time?"

Lu Yin smiled awkwardly and looked in Zhan Sijing's direction, seemingly wanting him to help him think of a solution.

But Zhan Sijing simply shook his head, unable to help.

Lu Yin could only sigh at this; he had no experience in making amends, and he was at a loss for what to do.

Thinking of this, Lu Yin immediately took out everything he had brought.

"Your Highness, I was wrong yesterday. I didn't know that His Highness had only recently regained consciousness. Please don't take it to heart."

"This is a treasure I specially selected. Take a look and see if you like it."

There was a burlap sack under the table in the pavilion.

The sack was bulging, and it was unclear what it contained.

After Lu Yin finished speaking, he untied the sack and took out several kinds of medicinal herbs.

Lingzhi, ginseng, and another rare medicinal herb.

Ye Qingwu was somewhat shocked upon seeing this; these were all rare treasures.

Unexpectedly, Lu Yin went to great lengths this time. If she could bring these precious medicinal herbs into her space and cultivate them again in her spiritual field, the effect would definitely be doubled.

However, she had only met the Valley Master of Medicine King Valley a few times. To say that she came specifically to apologize for what happened yesterday would be a bit of an exaggeration.

Ye Qingwu narrowed her eyes slightly, her intuition telling her that there must be another reason behind this.

"Valley Master Lu, I have a feeling that you have ulterior motives for bringing these things. Are you really here to apologize?"

Faced with Ye Qingwu's question, Lu Yin paused and quickly replied, "Your Highness, what are you saying? Of course I've come to apologize."

"Ok?"

Ye Qingwu clearly had doubts about Lu Yin's words, "But I feel like you're lying."

"Your Highness, since Valley Master Lu is so sincere, please forgive him."

At this moment, Zhan Sijing, who had been silent all along, spoke up.

Seeing that he was about to be exposed to Ye Qingwu, Lu Yin was thinking of what to say when Zhan Sijing spoke up for him. He quickly chimed in, "Yes, yes, Your Highness, I brought these things specifically for you."

"If you accept it, we'll consider yesterday's matter forgotten. Speaking of which, I should thank you for the drinks we had that time."

Seeing Lu Yin say this, Ye Qingwu did not refuse any further.

It would be a waste for her to refuse so many precious medicinal herbs if they were delivered to her door.

Thinking of this, Ye Qingwu nodded and said to Lu Yin, "Since Valley Master Lu is so sincere, then I will accept it."

"It's good that you've accepted it."

A smile appeared on Lu Yin's face.

"Your Highness, I suppose Valley Master Lu has come to see you, so I won't disturb you any longer."

Ye Qingwu also knew that before she appeared, Lu Yin had been suppressing the Shadowless Poison in Zhan Sijing's body. As the Valley Master, and with a certain understanding of the Shadowless Poison, he must be quite skilled in medicine.

You should know that you relied on the power of space to some extent when you were healing, but this valley master did not have space or other powers, so it was already not easy for him to do this.

Seeing Ye Qingwu about to turn and leave, Lu Yin quickly stopped her, "Wait."

"Is there anything else, Valley Master?"

Ye Qingwu was puzzled. From the beginning, he had sensed that the Valley Master of Medicine King Valley was implying something in his words.

"It seems the Valley Master and the Princess Consort have something to discuss. Shall I excuse myself for the time being?"

Zhan Sijing also realized something was wrong at this moment.

By the time Ye Qingwu realized what was happening, Zhan Sijing had already walked far away.

What's going on? Why did they leave all of a sudden?

Ye Qingwu looked in Lu Yin's direction, "Valley Master Lu, you've been being evasive since just now. What is it that you want to ask?"

“Your Highness, you have been the one treating the Regent during this period.”

"So what?"

"Has the princess ever heard of the Fourteen Needles?"

Ye Qingwu was slightly surprised by Lu Yin's words.

She had heard about the Fourteen Needles from Lu Yin at the restaurant last time, but he was drunk at the time, so he couldn't ask him anything even if he wanted to.

I didn't expect him to bring it up at this time.

Ye Qingwu became somewhat interested in this.

"So, Valley Master Lu has come to discuss the matter of the Fourteen Needles with me?"

“Of course.” Lu Yin nodded, then paused abruptly, “But before that, I have one small request.”

"Requirements?" Ye Qingwu hesitated.

"Come and listen."

"Your Highness, would you be willing to become my disciple?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingwu immediately understood what this person was planning.

No wonder that old man had been acting suspiciously since earlier; he was up to something. He certainly had a good plan.

If it were anyone else, they would be overjoyed to hear the legendary Valley Master of Medicine King Valley propose taking on a disciple.

But this identity was of no use to her whatsoever.

Ye Qingwu laughed and said, "You mean you want me to be your apprentice?"

Lu Yin nodded, his eyes full of anticipation, clearly indicating that this was what Ye Qingwu meant by asking the question.

"I'm curious, would the dignified Valley Master of Medicine King Valley be short of disciples?"

She remembered that Su Yan was this Valley Master's disciple.

In this situation, she might want to get involved.

"This……"

“I have no shortage of apprentices, but it is rare to find someone as young as the Princess with such remarkable medical skills. Princess, if you would like to become my apprentice, I will teach you everything I have learned in my life, how about that?”

After pondering for a moment, Ye Qingwu asked Lu Yin, "Then let me ask you, how many disciples do you have in Medicine King Valley right now?"

"There are fifty people in total, but only three are direct disciples."

Is there a woman named Su Yan?

"Yes," Lu Yin nodded, "but what does that have to do with her?"

"It's nothing, I was just asking."

Ye Qingwu said.

"So, Your Highness, you've agreed?"

"No," Ye Qingwu replied.

“Valley Master Lu, I know you are no ordinary person, but I am different from others and have no interest in becoming someone else’s disciple.”

She's already encountered enough things since she transmigrated into the book, so why bother becoming someone else's apprentice?

Even if someone wanted to become her apprentice, she would have to think about that, let alone anything else.

"Your Highness, can't we reconsider?"

"No."

Ye Qingwu said decisively, "Valley Master Lu, I have made myself very clear."

“If this continues, it will become meaningless. If you brought these medicinal herbs here to take on a disciple, then you might as well take them back now.”

"No, that's not what I meant."

Lu Yin was only briefly disappointed before quickly saying that he did have some ulterior motives in wanting to take Ye Qingwu as his disciple, but since some things were not possible, he naturally could not force it.
