Chapter 187: The Method of Refining Pills 18

Immediately, in addition to the anger in their gaze, the gaze of the surrounding people was also filled with contempt towards Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun quickly took the cloak that Dong Ling had brought over. She rapidly put it on herself, wrapping her entire body up.

The bodyguards who had no self-restraint had already lowered their heads and started laughing.

Xiao Yun only thought that today was the most humiliating day of her entire life. And she had lost her dignity in front of Xiao Yao Wang, the person she likes. She wants to find a crack in the ground and crawl inside.

Two lines of tears rolled down her cheeks. She was too embarrassed to continue to stay on the boat. She had her head down. While sobbing, she followed Xiao Yao Wang's servant onto the small boat and left.

Huang Bei Yue sneered coldly in her heart. Xiao Yun, you want to fight with me? You're still to tender.

From today onwards, another frivolous, wanton, and ruined woman would appear in Lin Huai City.

However, Xiao Yun didn't have the luck that Concubine Qin had that year. Concubine Qin was able to meet the lenient and generous Princess Zhang. Princess Zhang had allowed Concubine Qin into the prefecture as a concubine.

Xiao Yun was only an unmarried 16 years old. In this lifetime, she probably doesn't have any place in the future with the other main wives from prominent families.

After the matter regarding Xiao Yun, the people that were invited here by Xiao Yao Wang were no longer in the mood for the pill event. One after another, they took their leave.

"Princess Bei Yue." Before leaving, a thin but bright old man walked in front of Huang Bei Yue. He humbly cupped one fist in the other hand and said: "The daughter that Princess Zhang had taught, you understand the etiquette very well. Princess didn't put Princess Zhang's reputation to shame. This old man is very gratified."

Huang Bei Yue stared at him blankly. In her memory, there were no memories of him.

The old man laughed with a 'haha': "Of course Princess doesn't recognize this old man. I had met Princess Zhang before she was married."

"Sir, Bei Yue was rude." Huang Bei Yue, immediately as the identity of a junior, bowed to him. She is usually a proud person but when it comes to her elders, especially a kind and loving elder, she is usually very respectful towards them.

Furthermore, his words had praised Princess Zhang. Towards such a person, she needs to be very respectful to him. Hence, the memory of Princess Zhang won't be flawed in his heart because of her.

The old man stroked the short beard on his chin and laughed: "Good, good ah! Today this old man has seen Princess Bei Yue, this old man have finally resolved my desire. That year I was too busy, I wanted to give Princess Zhang a gift. But I had to deal with a lot of matters, so it kept getting delayed until she had passed away. I was still unable to send the gift. This old man had felt great regret these past years."

"Sir, please don't say that. My mother must've felt that it was very fortunate of her to have met you." Huang Bei Yue said with a smile.

The old man smiled with relief: "Being able to hear the Princess say it like this, this old man is also very fortunate. Since I'm unable to give this gift to Princess Zhang, then I'll give it to you. Think of it as resolving one of this old man's wish!"

Saying up to this, he turned his hand over. From his high-grade purple gemmed space ring, he took out a scroll. With a smile, he gave it to Huang Bei Yue.

Huang Bei Yue didn't dare to refuse as she quickly received it from him: "Thank you, sir!"

When an elder gives his junior something, it wouldn't be sensible/smart to refuse.

"Hahaha, good child. I hope to see you again." The old man saw that she was well-mannered, he felt even more gratified. He nodded his head. His body floated on top of the lake. As he floated more, he slowly disappeared into the distance.
