Chapter 11: The First Encounter
Under the gaze of Yun Mo Dye, the man entered with his eyes downcast and bowed: "Chang Ning has seen the Emperor, Empress."
Cang Ning, He Lian Cang Ning! The only younger brother of He Lian Cang Mu still in the mortal world, the Jade King appointed by the former emperor! No wonder he has such a captivating charm that touches people's hearts, who else can have such an extraordinary and elegant demeanor?
Although Helian Cangning was only nineteen years old, the noble and dignified temperament unique to the imperial family was fully embodied in him. Especially his unparalleled nobility and elegance seemed to be the sediment of the temperament of countless generations, even the real emperor Helian Cangtu beside him paled in comparison.
It was during the previous emperor's lifetime that he doted on this youngest son to an "abnormal" degree, not only did he early on confer upon him the title of Jade King and grant him a golden pardon, but also bestowed upon him the "Dragon-Beating Stick", with which to strike senseless the ruler above and strike dead the treacherous ministers below!
One "Ning" and one "Yu", fully reveal the elegance of this man: seemingly gentle and quiet, but actually as cold and refined as jade.
This man has a charm that drives women in the world crazy, but unfortunately he is not polite to any woman and is reluctant to cast his eyes on any woman, even with a glance. I really don't know what kind of woman can make him willingly humble himself.
"Dispense with the formalities, nineteenth brother." Helian Cangxue gestured casually and said, "Sit over there."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
He Lian Cangning thanked and sat down, raised her head to look at Yun Mo Yan who was lost in thought, a hint of cold sarcasm appeared in her eyes: For a mere mortal shell, the soul is upside down, just like other women in the world, how vulgar and unbearable!
"Yun Mo Ran, you just said that you can cure Qing Xuan's illness. Is it true or false?" He Lian Cang asked with a cold face, unable to conceal the urgency in his tone.
Yun Mo's expression changed slightly as he regained his composure and replied calmly: "To answer Your Majesty, it is indeed possible."
He Lian Cangning hadn't spoken, but he raised his head again to look at Yun Mo Yan for a moment, which made the personal guard behind him, Yan Mo, raise an eyebrow in surprise: The Nineteenth Imperial Uncle had never set his eyes on any woman before, yet from the time he entered the door until now, he had already looked at Yun Mo Yan twice. This... this was simply a wonder of the world!
"Yun Mo Ran, you'd better be careful what you say!" Yun Ling Wei was also shocked by the news, but she didn't believe for a moment that Yun Mo Ran really had such great divine power. "Xiao Er's status is noble, and can't afford to make even half a mistake!"
Behind the veil, Yun Mo smiled coldly: "To the Empress Dowager: If there is no sufficient grasp, Mo Yan dare not speak rashly. Let's just see if the Emperor will seize this opportunity."
He Lian's eyes flickered with uncertainty, half-believing and half-doubting: "The imperial physician in the palace is at a loss for what to do about the emperor's illness. You're so young, it's hard for me to believe you have the ability to bring him back from the brink of death..."
"The level of medical skill is not directly proportional to age." Yun Mo's eyes flashed with a hint of extraordinary elegance, "If Your Majesty agrees, I will try my best. If it fails, I will be buried with the King of Xiang as an apology, how about that?"
It cannot be denied that He Lian was moved, but he hesitated and couldn't make a decision. He turned his head and asked, "19th brother, what do you think?"
He Lian Cang sat quietly, looking down at his pale and slender fingers, his voice cold as jade: "How much confidence do you have?"
"Agreed." Yun Mo said without hesitation.
He Lian Cangning's lips curled up into a faint, enigmatic smile, as if intentionally being difficult: "Still one percent?"
Yun Mo's eyes widened in surprise, and then he sneered coldly: "Obstacles from all sides."
He Lian Cangning's expression remained unchanged, her eyes still cold and clear: "If the obstruction is eliminated?"
Yun Mo hesitated for a moment: "Mo Ran has 100% confidence that he can restore the Xiang King to his former state."
He Lian Cangning still didn't raise his head, and indeed never would set his eyes on any woman: "If I say so, if the Second Prince can't be cured, it won't just be you, the entire An Guo Gong Fu will have to accompany him in death?"
As soon as this statement came out, not only the queen Yun Lingwei, but also the emperor He Lian Cangtu, who claimed to be unflappable even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, slightly changed color. Under such enormous pressure, how could Yun Mochen dare to nod casually?
Yun Lingwei hastily opened her mouth to stop him: the Anguo Gongfu was her maternal family, and everyone was her relative; how could they be used as a bet by Yun Moche?
However, what choice would Yun Mo Ran make, would he be scared off by Nineteenth Uncle's one sentence or...
