Chapter 28: Bringing Roasted Chicken Back for the Prince
eak, what good would it do He's now just a broken wreck lying in bed, completely helpless. He can't even... take care of things on his own, not to mention feel anything.He narrowed his eyes, hoping to...Clouds are born...
What's his name
At this moment, Yunseng gazed at Qingxuan with a pair of clear eyes, within which surged emotions that were difficult to express.
What Qingxuan just said to him was something he never dared to dream of in his life!
Everyone said he was an ill-omened white ghost, who would bring bad luck.
When he was once tortured beyond recognition, his former master, wielding a poisoned whip, would say to him: “A white ghost is born with a curse. You are destined in this life to only endure endless pain and barely survive in this darkness.”
A cold iron cage, a ruthless whip, from the moment he could remember, he had learned to accept his fate.
However, now someone told him that he wasn't a cursed ominous white ghost, but a pure and immaculate being, like a child of the clouds.
Such words... He doesn't deserve to possess them!
However, Qingxuan stood under the glow of the setting sun, smiling gently at him and saying, "Remember, from now on you are mine. You can't embarrass me because of your inferiority."
The boy with newly regained white hair stared blankly for a long time before managing to squeak out, “I… Do I have a name”
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, Qingxuan laughed like a fairy.
Qingxuan lightly patted his head: "Yunsheng, wake up. After we eat, we still have a lot to do."
When she left the Wangfu, Qingxuan had one hundred taels. Now that she had bought the Xuelingzhi and Yunsheng, she still had 1,230 taels. It wouldn't be a problem to buy Yunsheng a good meal, but whether these remaining silver taels would be enough to buy a shop was unknown.
Never mind!
It's not a big deal anyway, even if we can't buy the shop today, we can still buy it tomorrow.
Qingxuan brought Yunsheng to the capital city to eat at Wu Xiang Ju, the most famous place for roast chicken.
In the room, Yun Sheng inhaled and ate five roasted chickens in one gulp. This left her speechless.
However, in a flash, she could understand Yun Sheng's feeling of wanting to eat and drink everything in sight.
Yun Sheng’s eyes welled up with tears, and he knelt before her once more: “Master, Yun Sheng has never eaten anything so delicious. From now on, Master will be Yun Sheng’s heaven. Yun Sheng is willing to give his life for Master, to go through fire and water without hesitation!”
Qingxuan didn't expect that she only used five roasted chickens to make Yunsheng loyal to her to this extent.
Qingsuan helped Yunsheng up and said, "Just stand there and kneel. If you're not full yet, keep eating. Just be prepared to have a bad stomach tonight."
Yun Sheng had never eaten anything greasy before. Since this was the first time he'd had five roasted chickens, his stomach couldn't take it. It was inevitable that he would run to the toilet at night.
When Qingxuan asked him if he wanted anything else, Yunsheng was startled again, and a wave of gratitude surged within him.
At this moment, gazing into Qingxuan's bright eyes, he felt that the darkness in his world seemed to be pierced by a ray of light. He realized that his world wouldn't always be shrouded in darkness.
As it turns out, when he came to this world, he didn't only feel suffering.
Yun Sheng was filled with gratitude and then chirped, "Master, can I have another roast chicken"
The young man with white hair she bought is really cute.
Qingxuan smiled and said, "Of course!"
When leaving Wu Xiang Ju, Qing Xuan also instructed the servants to pack one.
The previous owner once told her when she was washing clothes by the river that Namgung Yeop often went to Oksang-gi to eat.
The most famous dish at Wuxiangju is roasted chicken, so it's likely that Nangong Ye came to Wuxiangju for the roasted chicken.
Yun Sheng had never tasted roast chicken before, and Nangong Ye wasn't much better off either; at least he hadn't eaten anything good in half a year.
Now, Namgung Yeop's situation is perfect for enjoying some roasted chicken.
But… after finishing all this, the one cleaning the bedsheets wouldn't be Chun Tao anymore, but her.
But it's okay.
Qing Xuan lowered her head to look at these hands, once rough and calloused from years of washing clothes.
These hands could wash a few more days' worth of bedding. The problem wouldn't be big, as long as Nangong Ye could recover his strength faster. After all, there was still a major surgery waiting for him.
Thinking this through, Qingxuan took Yunsheng away from Wuxiang Ju and walked around the long street. Seeing no notice posted for selling a shop, she decided to take Yunsheng back to the palace.
Thinking that it was already dark and there was little point in continuing, Qingxuan immediately bought three new sets of clothes for Yunsheng and temporarily placed him in an inn.
Upon leaving, Qingxuan instructed: "I will come over tomorrow at the latest. If I don't show up tomorrow, then please go to the main street and see if anyone is selling a storefront."
Qingxuan said, "Here you go," and returned 100 taels of silver bills to Yunsheng.
Qingxuan: "You're all alone out there, you need money even for eating, drinking, and using the restroom. Here, take these hundred taels first."
This is Yun Sheng's first time receiving a silver note.
He had always thought that he would never live a normal life, but the woman before him not only treated him to the things he had craved and dreamed of, but she also gave him her complete trust.
Of course, he wouldn't disappoint her trust.
But as he thought about it, he realized his master hadn't brought him home. His eyes darkened again.
He clutched the silver note, but asked with a hint of confusion, "Master, why don't you take me home But... but because Yunshen is considered an ominous presence..."he wouldn't disappoint her trust.But as he thought about it, he realized his master hadn't brought him home.
