Chapter 91a: Her Ability

Passing through a winding corridor, then bypassing a rock garden, under Nalan Ye’s guidance, Luo Qing Luan saw the person who she needed to provide critical care to.

Reclining upon the bed, this man was dressed in all black. His figure was sturdy, but it’s just that he had been injured all over his body. A faint bloody smell permeated. His eyes were tightly closed, already in a coma. Moreover, his complexion was already grayish black, as if he was already a dead man. If Luo Qing Luan had not been able to sense a very difficult to feel faint pulse from him, she really would’ve taken him to be a dead man.

“This is one of my trusted subordinates responsible for gathering intelligence. Yesterday evening, he was barely able to support himself and escaped back here before passing out. I also already found someone to provide medical treatment. Even though his physical injuries were not detrimental, his internal injuries involved being poisoned, causing him to be unable to wake up.” Nalan ye stood behind Luo Qing Luan and said in a deep voice. “I thought about how your abilities are not bad. Perhaps you have a way to allow him to regain consciousness. That’s why I had someone bring you here to try.”

Standing by the side of the bed, there were two more people taking care of their companion, also dressed in black. With a look, it was clear that they’re also Nalan Ye’s subordinates. The two of them were quite concerned and also simultaneously said, “Miss Luo, please save Yuan Shan!”

Without replying, Luo Qing Luan already withdrew the hand she used to feel his pulse. In but a short time after she examined him, she already knew what the problem was.

The poison this person was afflicted with was indeed a bit special. No wonder even Nalan Ye couldn’t do anything about it. His wounds were quite numerous. It was evident that he had previously escaped only after a difficult battle. It’s just that it’s unknown why the other person was actually able to use this kind of poison on him. This absolutely was not an ordinary person.

Seeing Luo Qing Luan’s pensive appearance, Nalan Ye asked, “How is it, Qing Luan, is there a way?”

Muttering to herself for a moment, Luo Qing Luan smiled, “There is a way, however……”

His mind relaxed, Nalan Ye said, “As long as you can cure him, I’ll agree to any condition.”

Luo Qing Luan stood up, and leisurely walked to the red sandal wood chair carved with rose flowers and sat down. She looked at Nalan Ye in a relaxed manner. “It’s possible for me to help, but you need to give me a reward, a treatment fee.”

Smiling faintly, Nalan Ye knew that this lass liked money, otherwise, she wouldn’t keep writing those little novels like that. He asked, “How much do you want, just say it.”

“How much will you pay?” Luo Qing Luan didn’t reply and asked instead. A crafty light flashed in her eyes. It’s not that she wanted to use another person’s life to get rich. Even though this person’s poisonous wound caused Nalan Ye to be helpless, it wasn’t a difficult thing for her. Though this person was poisoned, he could still hold on for another 72 hours. There’s plenty of time for her and Nalan Ye to agree on conditions.

However, since it’s the first time Nalan Ye went to her for help, if she didn’t properly grasp the opportunity to rip him off, then it would be a pity. As a grand prince, she wondered how much money he had. If she didn’t take the opportunity to pry into it, what if after she married in the future, he secretly stashed away some money, that wouldn’t be good.

Luo Qing Luan set her heart on a plan. She had not officially become the Princess of Chu, but she already took everything belonging to Nalan Ye to be things to be placed in her own pockets. It’s also during the recent period of time that she figured things out. Nalan Ye could be considered to treat her in a special way. Even though she didn’t like him, she also didn’t hate him. Since there’s no other choice, then marrying him was passable. Therefore, she wanted to do her best to fish up a bit of benefits. Otherwise, she would really lose out big time.

Hearing Luo Qing Luan’s answer, Nalan Ye paused before he answered, “No matter how much you asked, I’ll still give it to you, is that fine now?”

A guard at his side uttered anxiously, “Miss Luo, no matter what conditions you have, the prince will still agree. I beg you to save Yuan Shan, please!”

The other person also cupped his hands and beseeched.

“Don’t be anxious, don’t worry. He temporarily is not going to die on us.” Luo Qing Luan leisurely waved her hand. She had absolute confidence in her own abilities. Smiling slightly, Luo Qing Luan didn’t pay any more attention to those two subordinates. Instead, she stared at Nalan Ye as the corners of her mouth curved up to say, “Seriously? You’ll give however much I want? That’s good, then, I’m also not greedy. What do you think is the value of your subordinate’s life? Just give me however much you think his life is worth.”

Ordinarily, Nalan Ye wouldn’t be in the mood to speak with Luo Qing Luan so seriously, using this as a pretext to dally with this adorable and interesting wife he’s going to marry. But this time, he didn’t know at all what Yuan Shan’s situation was. His three subordinates who were doctors good medical skills already squandered one night, yet still didn’t come up with any cure at all. If it wasn’t for the fact that he had always been someone who didn’t show his feelings, very likely, he truly would have been unable to restrain himself completely.

Moreover, he simply couldn’t answer Luo Qing Luan’s question. This lass really is crafty! Yuan shan is actually an important trusted aide among his subordinates, in charge of gathering the country of North Yue’s intelligence for many years. This time, he’d returned wounded. He must have discovered some important information. This matter was extremely important. But to have him use money to weigh Yuan Shan’s life against, he really didn’t know how he much he should say. Five hundred thousand? A million, or two million taels? No matter how much he said, it would be wrong. Luo Qing Luan basically pointed at a mine for him to drill into.

not knowing whether to laugh or cry, Nalan Ye said, “Qing Luan, even my……” Suddenly, he stopped in place, waved his hand to have the two people waiting by his side withdraw. The latter’s face was filled with worry as he stared at Nalan Ye, then looked at Luo Qing Luan. Unwillingness and anxiety crossed his entire face but he withdrew in the end. Nalan Ye immediately changed his expression and continued out loud. “Qing Luan, all of me already belongs to you. My subordinates naturally are also your subordinates. If you have a way to save him, then cure him first before we continue this discussion, is that acceptable?”

“What, you’re afraid he’s going to die?” Luo Qing Luan gaze swept over him.

“With you undertaking this task, I naturally have faith in you, but……” Nalan Ye was half awkward, half forcing a smile, simply seemed to be a different person than the ‘iceberg prince’ from the rumors.
