17 The strategist, Han Ryu is here! (1/2)
”Milady, you knew about our history. Why did you lie to our young lord?” The elder was worried.
But Wei Xia Ri ignored his worries and finished writing down her summary instead. On the paper was a structure and filled with different bullet points. The elder had never seen this type of writing before!
” Could this be another of those new ideas you learned?”
”Uhhh-yes. As for what you previously said, I did not lie. I just wanted to show him a more detailed presentation for ease of understanding.”
”Milady is really sincere, oh how long did it take? The young lady is kind again,” he sobbed. After her first heart break, Wei Xia Ri would grow colder and more cruel from every return after her victories. She became the tyrant that people feared, no longer was she the blunt and honest child who always had a foot into the grave. The difference was big, it almost made him take his little life for failing to educate the young lady properly!
Wei Xia Ri sighed but did not stop him from sobbing. Anyways, he should have a troublesome reason for crying like that. Not that Wei Xia Ri would entertain him.
Wei Xia Ri then gathered her materials to pack and head for the Palace where he was teaching. It was said that he was currently in-charge of letting the guests adapt to the empire's culture and societal views. ”My honey has been demoted to a tourist guide,” she grumbled. Wei Xia Ri loved his job as a teacher and he obviously dud too judging by his proud expression when he answered her numerous questions.
'The sight of little Jin suffering for doing someone else's job, I can't bear it!' Wei Xia Ri had an untouchable status and if the situation calls for it, might as well wield it!
”General Wei, greetings!”
”Princess Ruge, greetings.”
Many who met her would quickly exchange greetings with her. And it blew their unexpectant eyes off when she smiled or returned a salute after greeting back. 'Could it be because of her scholarly husband?'
'Did the general suffer a head trauma?'
'Was the general switched?'
Many conclusions arrived in their heads.
But Wei Xia Ri only wanted to show off her hardwork. When not so many people were around, she climbed over the roof and used her qigong to locate Cai Jin.
Today, he wore a half hairdo and a fish-tail braid behind his left ear. His light blue robes printed with the clouds were a huge discerning trait too.
On the right side where eunuchs were gathered by the scholars' royal academy was a pair followed by many. Even Yu Xuan Xuan, the infamous ghost doctor was beside the foreign man. Not that Wei Xia Ri minded especially that she stood by the foreigner's and not little Jin's. With the papers in a cloth bag, she landed in front of them. A pearly-white smile aimed for the scholar melted Jin's cold facade.
”Darling,” Wei Xia Ri greeted. He looked so good and sounded great when working. 'if it was modern times, I would kiss you and hug you.'
”Noo- Xia-er,” he smiled, a bit shaken as he almost slipped calling her noona!
”I just brought the materials over but it seems like you're busy,” the general said passed him the cloth bag. Right then, she noticed two pairs of eyes looking at her.
”Y-you!” Yu Xuan Xuan was first to react.
She looked at stuff lady. Women like her were mostly awkward if not dusokayubg their regular arrogance. Given that she bore little to no grudge with her, Wei Xia Ri greeted back with a grin. ”Yuan Yuan, how are you? I have another business proposal!”
”You married the kid!”
