Hou Ye's palm heart is a black lotus

Chapter 749 Guessed Correctly (First Update)
Princess Qinyang rode her horse all the way to the Ye residence and finally stopped outside the gate.

She nimbly dismounted, and the servant at the door, seeing her, immediately greeted her with a smile.

"Princess, you've arrived!"

Princess Qinyang frequents this place, practically treating it as her second home. Everyone in the Ye household is familiar with her, and they are always exceptionally warm and friendly whenever they meet.

Princess Qinyang strode inside, asking as she went:
"Where is your second young lady? Is she home today?"

"The second young lady is here! Or perhaps—"

Before the servant could announce her arrival, Princess Qinyang had already passed through the hanging flower gate and walked straight inside.

"As long as she's here! You don't need to come along. I'll go find her myself!"

She knows this road all too well.

As she spoke, she had already arrived in the courtyard.

Upon arriving, Princess Qinyang immediately spotted a familiar figure in the courtyard.

"Chu Tang! I have something to tell you—wait, what?"

Princess Qinyang looked surprised and scanned the courtyard.

In the once spacious and clean courtyard, some pieces of wood of varying sizes and thicknesses were scattered haphazardly, along with some odds and ends that looked like iron bars.

Ye Chutang was dressed simply, with her sleeves rolled up, and several tools were placed beside her.

Hearing the noise, Ye Chutang, who was thinking about the wheel size, came back to her senses, casually tucked her stray hair behind her ear, and turned around to look.

"What brings you here today?" Ye Chutang teased with a smile. "Have you already worn off from the alcohol?"

"Of course! While I wouldn't call myself invincible, my alcohol tolerance is pretty good. Last time I was just too happy and got a little carried away, that's why I drank too much—" Princess Qinyang said, trying to save face while raising her chin, "What are you up to? A big project?"

In the past, everyone, including her, had the impression of Ye Chutang as a beautiful and gentle woman with superb medical skills, who could save lives with the flashing of silver needles.

This was the first time she had ever seen Ye Chutang do such work.

"Yes," Ye Chutang nodded, "I'm planning to make a useful wheelchair."

"A wheelchair?" Princess Qinyang was taken aback.
"What do you want to do with that thing?"

Before Ye Chutang could answer, she suddenly seemed to remember something and exclaimed, "Could it be prepared for Young Master Xun?"

Ye Chutang pondered for a moment, then glanced around discreetly.

"Yep."

Anyway, we have enough materials, so making one more isn't a bad idea. We can just charge a little more for the labor.

Princess Qinyang clicked her tongue lightly, "For Young Master Xun to trouble you to do it personally, you must have quite a lot of face!"

Ye Chutang remained expressionless. "He helped me a lot before, so it's only right that he does this."

"Right!"

Princess Qinyang immediately realized that what she said made a lot of sense.
"In that case, I'll send some more gifts from the warehouse later!"

Ultimately, they were trying to help her, and Ye Chutang couldn't be the only one to repay that favor.

Ye Chutang didn't explain much, and continued selecting timber while asking, "Did the princess come today for something?"

"how do you know?"

Princess Qinyang looked around, her expression becoming much more serious.

She lowered her voice and said, word by word,

"Guess who I saw at Yunlai Tavern just now?"

Ye Chutang stopped what she was doing, tilted her head slightly, and pondered for a moment.

"Shui Xingqiu?"

Princess Qinyang's eyes widened immediately. "How did you know?!"

Ye Chutang shrugged. "Which powerful and influential person in the entire capital haven't you met? Someone who could elicit such a strong reaction from you must be someone of extraordinary status. So... besides Shui Xingqiu, who else could it be?"
