Chapter 2814 Master Qingsong 32.0
After hearing Shen Cha's words, Jin Miaomiao hesitated for a moment, her face showing difficulty.

"What kind of reaction is this? It's hard to say."

“It’s really hard to say.” Jin Miaomiao nodded to Shen Cha. “So far, there’s no clear answer.” She spread her hands. “You could say it’s a disease, or you could say it isn’t.”

"Huh? Is that possible? Why?"

“Because people like Master Shi are truly rare. In the entire Great Xia Dynasty, including Liao and Jin, it would be extremely difficult to find even one like him. At least, in all my years of practicing medicine, I've only ever heard of one Master Shi.” Jin Miaomiao thought for a moment and added, “But I’ve seen this kind of thing in ancient books. They say there are people who can erase all their bad memories and forget those who made them unhappy and unpleasant things. But the ancient books also mention that doctors at the time said that such people are extremely rare, and their ability is more like a gift from heaven.”

"A gift from heaven?" Shen Cha stroked her chin. "Could it be understood as a rare talent?"

“That’s one way to understand it,” Jin Miaomiao nodded. “When I was reading ancient books before, I asked my master about it. He said that if we really wanted to confirm what was wrong with them or what made them different from most people, we would need to dissect their skulls and look at the internal structure. That might be the only way to determine whether it was a disease or a so-called talent.” She spread her hands. “But in fact, I don’t think it’s a talent. It should be a disease, and the lesion is in the brain.”

“I think so too.” Shen Cha nodded. “Or maybe their anatomy is different from normal people, right?”

"Yes." Jin Miaomiao looked regretful. "It's a pity that there are so few people like that. It's good enough to meet one in a lifetime."

"Not necessarily. If it's as rare as you say, you're unlikely to meet one in your entire life, let alone..." Song Yaojia waved his hand, signaling the two to end the topic. He turned around, looked at his two younger brothers who were sleeping soundly behind him, smiled, and said, "I heard they stayed up for two consecutive nights, is that true?"

“Yes!” Shen Cha sighed, “Otherwise, how could she sleep so soundly that we can’t wake her up even when we’re making so much noise?”

“They’re still young, they can make up for it.” Song Yaojia covered them with the blanket. “What about Xiaoyun? She can’t just follow General Eagle and General Falcon around all the time, can she? She doesn’t even want to go home?”

“He doesn’t even want to go home anymore. Now, apart from being on duty at the camp and patrolling the streets, he spends the rest of his time with the two generals.” Shen Cha smiled helplessly. “I specifically instructed the two generals and told Seventh Brother to keep a close eye on him, to make sure he has a regular schedule, eats well, and sleeps well. He can’t neglect these things just because he has to train with the Eagle King Army.”

"Yes, that's what I'm worried about too."

“The good thing is, not only is Seventh Brother here, but Hongye is too, so they can both keep an eye on him. Although Hongye is also very passionate and impulsive, she will definitely set a good example when disciplining her younger brother.” Shen Cha smiled. “Once the two of them are satisfied, these two…” She gestured with her chin toward Shen Jiu and Xia Jiu, “will also go. They’re still holding back for now!”

"You like it that much?" Jin Miaomiao couldn't understand. "How is it different from usual?"

"They're roughly the same in general, but there are many differences in the details. If they like it, let them go. There's no need to stop them." Shen Cha raised an eyebrow at Jin Miaomiao. "It's not just them. My brother, several generals, and I all want to go, but we just haven't had the time yet."

“This is all normal. Before we left, my uncle mentioned that this situation might occur. And that's why he sent General Eagle and Leopard to the border. Besides escorting me and Lao Qi, it's also to exchange information. But…” Song Yaojia thought for a moment, then looked at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, and asked, “Are you sure Hongye is alright?”

"So far, there seems to be no problem," Shen Cha smiled. "She's a very smart person. Although we haven't discussed this issue openly, we've probed each other's intentions many times, both overtly and covertly. Her attitude is very firm, and we've basically reached an agreement." "Reached an agreement?"

“Yes!” Shen Cha nodded. “She had already said that she would stay by my side for the rest of her life. Wherever I go, she will go. Even if someone comes looking for her, she will not run away with them. After all, she is past the age of running away with someone just because they give her some good food or show her some kindness.”

"That's what she actually said?"

"Although there wasn't a particularly clear answer, it's enough for me, isn't it?"

“That’s true!” Song Yaojia sighed softly and said, “There’s no need to break through this barrier; maintaining the status quo is already good enough.”

"Yes, that's what I think. If we expose that, it will be difficult for us to get along."

Song Yaojia smiled, reached out and popped a piece of candied fruit into her mouth. "However, you should all know very well that the key to this problem does not lie with her. What should we do if the other party uses familial ties to blackmail her?"

"Probably not." Shen Cha shook her head gently. "The two brothers didn't hide Hongye's identity from us. They privately asked us to take good care of their elder sister. They know that Hongye will never return to the Yelü family in this lifetime, and more importantly, they have no intention of taking her back."

"why?"

“Yelü Ertu has wronged them, so the brothers must do their best to make amends.” Shen Cha smiled helplessly and said, “That lady is Hongye’s birth mother. Her greatest wish before she died was for her daughter to leave this royal family and the Liao Kingdom and live freely, according to her own heart. Even if life is difficult, being free from the constraints of anyone and anything is the most important thing.”

“I see.” Song Yaojia nodded gently. “However, we still can’t let our guard down. After all, people’s hearts are the hardest to fathom. Perhaps she or they think this way now, but who knows when things might change. You know, this kind of thing is quite common, right? Let’s observe more and not jump to conclusions.”

Shen Cha didn't speak, but exchanged a glance with Shen Haolin, and the two of them nodded to Song Yaojia.

Jin Miaomiao and Meilin listened quietly to their conversation, making faces at each other as they listened.

"You two!" Song Yaojia turned his head and saw the two of them making faces. He raised an eyebrow slightly. "What are you doing?"

"It's nothing!" Jin Miaomiao waved her hand. "We just had a feeling."

What are your thoughts?

"No matter what kind of people you are, you shouldn't mess with them," Jin Miaomiao snorted. "Otherwise, why would I stand by and cheer you on after you've sold me out?"
