Chapter 1037: Chapter 1037: The Tip of Her Nose

In the ranch space, Sui Ziyou was gnawing on a chicken wing with gusto when she saw the person who suddenly appeared, especially her cousin. The chicken meat at the corner of her mouth ’plopped’ down onto the table.

"Brother Zimo? How did you... How did you get in here? Did Sister-in-law bring you?" She hurriedly stood up.

"It seems your sister-in-law treats you well."

Ya Molian glanced over the dishes on the table and uttered indifferently.

"Um."

Sui Ziyou was choked by his words.

"Look at how you’re talking, Brother Zimo. I’m your own cousin after all. Even if Sister-in-law respects you, she should treat me well too, right?"

At her words, Ya Molian glanced at her again, his lips curling slightly.

...

The two of them stayed in the Jinyu space for a while before returning to Manghuang Mountain.

"Sang’er, after some time, I will build you a house in your Jinyu space. That way, when you’re traveling outside, you’ll have a place to stay without always having to lodge at inns. After all, it’s not safe," he said to Lin Caisang.

"Build a house?"

That was something Lin Caisang had indeed considered before.

But at that time, it was just her alone, and since she couldn’t even keep a piece of wood in her medicine garden space, it was merely a thought.

However, Ya Molian’s suggestion was actually quite good. She would eventually have to venture out, and she couldn’t stay in Ya Village forever. Moreover, it would be nice to have a place to sleep when living in the Jinyu space alongside Ya Molian in the future.

"Sure, we can build it when you have time. It’s definitely not possible right now," she said.

Right now, the most important thing was to study the poison in his body. Everything else could be put off, including the medical books she had been writing.

On hearing this, Ya Molian raised his hand and gently tapped her nose.

...

In the following days, Lin Caisang was on Manghuang Mountain, researching the poison afflicting Ya Molian.

But since many of the medicinal herbs’ origins were unknown, it was really difficult to come up with anything, so difficult that she kept scratching her head, at a complete loss for where to start.

Meanwhile, news from the Zhou family kept coming in.

Time flew by, and before long, it was time to send Ya Molian back to Shaohua City.

In Shaohua City, within the imperial palace, the atmosphere was just as it had been when Ya Molian left. The Empress, anguished by her son being thrown into prison, washed her face with tears every day, crying outside the imperial study once each day.

In the beginning, the Emperor would still remember the affection of being married and would have her summoned into the imperial study to comfort her with a few words.

But as it happened day after day, the Emperor grew tired of it, letting the Empress come and go as she pleased without paying her any more attention.

The Empress also encountered the National Teacher Suyang a few times outside the imperial study, and Suyang, even more arrogantly, completely ignored the Empress like she was thin air, not even bothering with greetings and infuriating her greatly.

In the blink of an eye, it was time for Ya Molian’s return.

But everyone was unaware that Ya Molian had been away; they assumed he was just avoiding the troubles that Prince Lin was in, hiding inside Prince Mo’s Mansion without coming out.

The Emperor had sent people to Prince Mo’s Mansion several times to summon him to the palace, but each time, Zhen Wu at his side turned them away. The Emperor was also angry, clearly wanting to handle Prince Lin’s matter properly, but nothing seemed to work.

...

Inside Prince Mo’s Mansion, Zhe Jue and Jiang Li had just arrived when they saw their lord already sitting in the study of Prince Mo’s Mansion.

Both opened their mouths at the same time, yet no words came out.
