Chapter 133 Arresting people
That very night, Ying Ji met Yuan Ge, who had rushed over anxiously.
The marks on his body and his thin student clothes showed how anxious the owner had been to get here. Now, he heard that the princess had lost her memory during the time he was gone.
Thinking of how helpless and pitiful the princess must have been during this time, Yuan Ge couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
He knelt down and begged for mercy, wanting to stay by Ying Ji's side.
Ying Ji did not agree. Yuan Ge was a very useful person and was now highly regarded by several scholars. If he returned now, it would be tantamount to losing this opportunity and wasting the time spent cultivating him.
Yuan Ge is a clear-headed person, and most importantly, she is exceptionally talented and extremely loyal. If we train her, she will definitely achieve twice the results with half the effort in her future endeavors.
Now, Master Bian of the Imperial Academy has a very high opinion of Yuan Ge. He is eager to impart all his medical knowledge to him. Although learning medicine is difficult, it is the work of a great medical master, not to mention that he is a descendant of Bian Que. As long as he uses this name to save people, he will have many connections in the future.
Thinking of Bian Le begging her to take him as her personal disciple, Ying Ji had already agreed on her behalf, her eyes firm and domineering.
"Study hard, I need you. If you want to leave the Imperial Academy, you must complete your apprenticeship. Don't you want to return after completing your studies and stand by my side to manage everything for me? Or are you willing to let me marry and have children so that you can stay with me and never catch up with me again?"
Yuan Ge's tears fell again, as if she couldn't hold back: "Yes, Yuan Ge will listen to the princess."
Ying Ji patted Yuan Ge's head: "I have high expectations for you, don't disappoint me."
Yuan Ge was touched by the gentle head pat, especially since the princess had forgotten her but was still so tender. Her belief in her heart became even stronger: "Yes, Yuan Ge will not let you down."
Ying Ji nodded and asked about Ruoshui: "Has there ever been a man named Ruoshui in my life?"
Yuan Ge racked his brains and remembered: "There was such a person. When I was eleven years old and serving you closely, my former close advisor mentioned this name. You seemed to like this playmate very much back then, but this person disappeared and you can't find him anywhere."
After that, you stopped mentioning that name. Is there something you need to find him for?
Ying Ji was even more puzzled. The ages didn't match up. Yuan Ge was eleven, and if she calculated her age, she would only be fifteen. But Ruoshui in her dream was already twenty years old...
Seeing that the princess was lost in thought, Yuan Ge quickly withdrew and took the palace servants with him, leaving Ying Ji alone.
Ying Ji tried hard to remember all night, but still couldn't recall anything.
The morning sun was warm and gentle. Ying Ji hadn't slept all night and was extremely tired.
As you open the door, the sunlight slants in, making you instinctively cover your eyes.
Since you can't remember, go find the person.
Ying Ji sat in a position that allowed her to face the high platform directly.
Because we were close enough, we could clearly see that Gao Jianli's exposed skin resembled a pure white snow lotus from the Kunlun Mountains.
A man in a red robe with black cloud-patterned sleeves sat on the ground, wearing a mask that added to his mystery. His long, graceful fingers danced across the strings of a zither with fluid grace.
People move with the music, occasionally raising their heads. The fox mask is elusive yet captivating, drawing the listener in. Before they know it, they are drawn in, becoming intoxicated by the music and the person.
Ying Ji listened to the music and unconsciously fell asleep.
When she woke up, she looked around and found herself sleeping in a guest room. Someone outside the door heard the noise and called out to ask what was going on.
"Princess, would you like to wash and groom yourself?"
Ying Ji let the person in, but she was surprised to find herself so sleepy.
I glanced out the window; it was already night.
The shopkeeper waited at the door for instructions.
Ying Ji then summoned Gao Jianli to play the zither.
The shopkeeper's expression froze, but he dared not say anything and led Ying Ji to the upper room.
He immediately sent a message to Zhang Liang.
Gao Jianli initially thought it was no big deal to help his brother, but things had already escalated to the point of sharing a room... He felt he couldn't continue like this.
Holding the strings, he sat on the central platform and gently stroked the instrument.
Before it even started, Ying Ji grabbed his wrist angrily: "Who are you? You're not Gao Jianli."
Gao Jianli looked bewildered, then gave a wry smile and removed his mask.
The man had striking eyebrows and bright eyes, and was handsome and dashing. He could be described as extremely handsome, but Ying Ji's grip on his wrist felt as if she were about to break it.
Gao Jianli winced in pain, his brows furrowing: "Your Highness, please let go of my hand, and I will explain to you in detail."
Ying Ji shook off the man's wrist, her eyes filled with domineering and fierce aura: "You'd better give me a reasonable explanation."
Gao Jianli silently mourned for his brother, then rubbed his wrist and explained the situation: "The Gao Jianli that the princess contacted before was not me. He said he wanted to see you, but had no reason, so he used my identity to play the zither."
However, he seemed very sad this morning and has decided to leave Xianyang.
Ying Ji frowned, looking at Gao Jianli to confirm whether what he said was true or false.
"His name, his name."
Gao Jianli smiled bitterly. His brother loved her terribly, but she couldn't even remember her name: "Ruoshui".
Hearing the argument inside, the shopkeeper thought of the money Gao Jianli had earned at Wuyuefang, and after much mental preparation, he brought in a fruit platter to mediate.
Before even entering, Ying Ji angrily pushed the door open and rushed out. When she saw the shopkeeper, her eyes were icy cold, and the expression inside filled the shopkeeper with indescribable fear.
"So the shopkeeper knew too? You've been deceiving me, are you planning how to stay in Xianyang?"
The shopkeeper was so frightened by these words that he knelt down on the spot: "Your Highness, Your Highness, this old man does not know what you are talking about. How could I dare to deceive you? Wuyuefang was built by Liangcejun. How could this old man dare to deceive the master?"
Ying Ji was about to frown when she thought of something, and her expression became calm and composed, a faint expression that sent a cold sweat down the back of the shopkeeper.
"Detain Gao Jianli; someone will come to take over."
The shopkeeper kowtowed repeatedly. At this moment, he dared not think about anything else. Being able to save his life was good enough.
After leaving the Dance Moon Pavilion, Ying Ji was about to summon the Bad Guys when she remembered that she had given some of her authority to Zhang Liang, so she stopped.
Back in Danyang Prefecture, Ying Ji gave Ruoshui's painting to Zhang Han: "Find him, but be careful not to hurt him."
Zhang Han clearly felt that Lord Danyang's aura was stronger than ever before, and his heart was filled with excitement. He had been questioned many times before and thought he would be sidelined, but now it seemed that Lord Danyang was still willing to give him a chance.
He clasped his hands in acceptance of the order: "Your subject will certainly not fail the princess's trust."
Clenching their hands tightly, as if they were grasping their own destiny.
Ying Ji stayed in Danyang Prefecture and was not very willing to return to the palace, so she simply stayed there.
Upon seeing the various layouts that I didn't like at all, I thought about it and concluded that it must have been Bai Cejun's doing.
I had previously shown them such favoritism, even letting them change the master bedroom, which suggests there was some affection between us. But why don't I feel any attraction towards them? Seeing them feels like meeting them for the first time.
Ying Ji touched her heart, which was beating steadily. But when she thought of meeting Ruoshui, just recalling it made her heart beat wildly, telling her how important this person was.
He is so important that even if I have amnesia, just looking at him can make my emotions fluctuate with everything he does.
As night fell, Zhang Han came to report: "Your Highness, we have found this person. He was chased by bandits on his way to Han and was injured. His wounds have been bandaged, and he is staying in the side hall."
Ying Ji praised, "Well done, you deserve a reward. I noticed the military strategist's touch in your actions; have you studied military strategy?"
Zhang Han bowed and said, "When I was young, I happened to obtain a basic military book and began to study its intricacies without the guidance of a famous teacher."
Ying Ji took out a jade slip from her bosom: "The Imperial Academy also has great military strategists. With the army returning this time, many talented people will go there to study. Take this opportunity to learn something and prepare to go to the battlefield for some experience."
Zhang Han was thrilled, never expecting the opportunity to come so soon: "Yes, sir."
