Chapter 391: Meeting the Ninth Thousand Year Old (36)
Ye Xiao's tent was much more luxurious than Lin Yan's. Whether it was fine sandalwood furniture or precious fox fur blankets, they could be seen everywhere. The tent was also large, and it felt very open when you entered.

At this moment, he was sitting in a chair with his hands on his knees and his eyes closed, looking like he had fallen asleep while sitting.

There were a lot of notebooks and memorials piled on the desk, and only the parties involved and him knew what was written in them.

The eunuch who led the way stopped at the door of the tent and did not dare to go in. After all, Lord Ye did not summon him. And there were some things that he might not want him to know.

Lin Yan stood in the tent, feeling that she was out of tune with everything around her. She looked very plain, and the tent was decorated in an ornate style, like a country bumpkin who had strayed into the tent.

"Lord Ye!" she called out in a crisp voice, but she did not salute.

This is trying to touch his bottom line and see how cruel he is.

Ye Xiao was also very patient. Although he was called, he did not open his eyes immediately. Instead, he waited for a while and opened his eyes when the other party was about to shout the second sentence.

Those eyes were very deep, like an endless abyss, with a kind of attraction and danger mixed in. People dared not look directly at them for no reason, but could not help but be curious.

"I'm here." His tone was light, but not distant, as if he was meeting an old friend whom he hadn't seen for many years.

"sit down."

Lin Yan found a seat and sat down, knowing in her heart why he was looking for her. But in some things, taking the initiative does not mean holding the initiative, so she had to be patient.

The person who loses his temper first is the easiest to be manipulated.

But Ye Xiao didn't intend to waste any time on such things. As long as he was powerful and the initiative was in his hands, did it matter? All conspiracies and tricks were paper tigers in the face of absolute power.

So at that moment, he asked directly: "How sure are you about my illness?"

Lin Yan was a little surprised. She had never thought that he would be so straightforward, but after thinking about it, she understood. He had been tortured by illness for so many years, and now there was a solution in front of him, so why did he have to act so arrogantly?

He had already given her status and a powerful backer, so why should she be dissatisfied? Moreover, with his ability, crushing her to death would be like crushing an ant.

In an unequal relationship, there is no need to beat around the bush. Only by speaking directly can the communication continue.

The main reason was that he thought this little maid was silly. She looked very smart, but actually she was silly as soon as she spoke. She was cunning, but not deep; she was scheming, but not much.

In short, not very smart.

Lin Yan didn't know what he thought of her. If she knew, she would spit out blood. Is it so insulting? Does she look stupid?
But she doesn't know.

She frowned and shook her head helplessly, "I'm not so sure. These toxins have already penetrated into your whole body. Even if they are removed,..." You won't live long.

Xiao Ba was right. Ye Xiao would not live long. According to its prediction, he would only live for ten years. Her pulse was similar. Even if the physical condition was resolved, he would still die young. This could not be changed. After all, after so many years of infiltration, the toxins had already been integrated into his bone marrow. How could he be truly cured?
Ye Xiao also heard the implication of her words, but he didn't feel anything in his heart and accepted this fact calmly. However, he had received this news from Doctor Chen before, so he was not surprised.

But how could she cure a disease that even Imperial Physician Chen couldn't?
"Just speak up. I won't pin all my hopes on you." Ye Xiao's expression was still cold and without any warmth, but one could clearly see a glimmer of something called hope.

He knew his own body well. He was poisoned in his early years. After the poison was not completely cleared, he was tortured in various ways. After entering the palace, he thought he could live a peaceful life, but in the end he was tortured in the dark.

The young eunuchs had a hard life. Sometimes when those disabled people had no place to vent their emotions, they would vent all their emotions on the palace maids who had just entered the palace.

This is just their little trick. The people above can't see, hear or care about it.

A newly arrived palace maid doesn't know the rules and has a low status. Even if she accidentally loses her life, she will just say that she has a bad luck. Who would care? Who would think of investigating?

Ye Xiao placed his hands on his knees and kneaded them gently. Even now, if it was a rainy day, his legs would ache slightly.

Medication can certainly suppress pain, but over time, the medicine will not be of much use.

Lin Yan sensed a hint of loneliness in his emotions, that feeling of being ill for a long time without any medical attention, like standing alone on the top of a snowy mountain, with a cliff thousands of feet high if you step back.

I sighed in my heart. I was really afraid of the rumors about him. But now that I saw him in person, even though I didn't know his past, I felt a little pity for him.

There must be something pitiful about a hateful person. How much effort has he put in to get to where he is today?
"Master Ye, I may be able to try to solve it, but I'm not completely sure. Since you trust me, I will naturally give my all. Moreover, I can't let the support I have finally climbed up collapse no matter what."

Her tone was firm, and although she looked thin and young, her confidence made people trust her more.

If it weren't for the poison that was dealt with in the cave, Ye Xiao probably wouldn't believe where she got such great ability from? A little palace maid, not even twenty years old, was actually more powerful than those old men in the Imperial Hospital?

If this were to be said, I'm afraid few people would believe it.

Ye Xiao nodded and said, "Then I'll leave my illness to you."

He also wanted to know her full capabilities. At present, her value was not great. But if she could really cure his illness, he would have to evaluate her value again.

As for where she learned her medical skills, does it matter?

As the saying goes, in the face of absolute power, all conspiracies and tricks are paper tigers.

What's more, he was secretly looking for a miracle doctor to leave a way out for himself.

"In that case, I will leave you a prescription to cure the poison you can see at the moment. Get well first, and then solve other problems."
