Chapter 407: Waiting for Cousin to Return

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Yu Youyao’s eyes widened in shock.

Zhou Linghuai lowered his voice, his tone gentle and bewitching. “Be good and say it again!

Yu Youyao was a little stunned. “There’s a small note stuffed inside. It also says how to use it, how much to use it, the symptoms, and so on. Cousin, you don’t have to worry about using it wrongly.”
“I want to hear you say it again, okay?” Zhou Linghuai was still smiling. His voice was unbelievably gentle, but his tone revealed a hint of palpitating paranoia.

Yu Youyao had never rejected her cousin’s small request.

Hence, she nodded obediently. “Okay, I’ll say it again. Cousin, you have to listen carefully.”

Zhou Linghuai nodded. With one hand on his forehead and a beautiful smile on his lips, he watched as the little girl took the things she had carefully prepared and introduced them one by one.

After the little girl finished introducing them, Zhou Linghuai handed her a cup of tea.

The little girl took the teacup and sipped from it.

She was very soft and obedient!

After drinking the tea, Yu Youyao put down her teacup and tilted her head to see her cousin looking at her with eyes as deep as an abyss.

Yu Youyao smiled. “Did I prepare too much? Will it be difficult to take care of?”

Zhou Linghuai chuckled. “No. When the time comes, it’s only right to arrange for someone who’s proficient in medicinal fragrances to be among the nannies to follow me.” He paused for a moment and his smile became warmer. “Of course I can’t let Cousin down.”

Her cousin’s smile was like fire.

Yu Youyao felt happy. She gently tugged at her cousin’s sleeve and looked up. “Then I’ll prepare some more medicinal tea for you. You’re used to my medicinal tea, so you probably won’t be used to other tea.”

With someone at her cousin’s place, many things were much easier.

Zhou Linghuai smiled. “Okay!”

Yu Youyao blinked. “What else do you need, Cousin?

Zhou Linghuai glanced at the treasure box with a deep smile in his eyes.

‘Cousin, you’ve prepared well.”

There was no one more prepared than her.

Yu Youyao thought about it carefully. The most important things to nourish his body and save his life were indeed almost ready. “Cousin, you have to be fine.

Don’t get injured or fall sick.”

Zhou Linghuai chuckled. “Be good. I’ll be back in three months at most.” Yu Youyao nodded. “Okay, I’ll wait for Cousin to come back.”

The little girl’s eyes were bright and reflected his figure. Zhou Linghuai suddenly felt a little reluctant. “I’ll leave the city tomorrow morning. Don’t specially send me off.”

Yu Youyao pursed her lips and threw herself into her cousin’s arms. “No, I won’t. Not only do I have to send you off, but I also have to send you out of the city.” She had an unexpected stubbornness about this. “Cousin, don’t persuade me. I won’t listen.” Zhou Linghuai said helplessly, ‘Okay!”

On the second day—

Yu Youyao had already arranged the carriage and luggage early in the morning.

She went to the Green House to accompa_ny her cousin for breakfast and the two of them went to An Shou Hall.

Old Madam Yu had to explain, “Recently, the royal court hasn’t been stable, and it’s not peaceful outside. Bring along the business token of the Yu Residence. If you encounter any difficulties along the way, take it to the local government office to make things easier. When you’re outside, you have to take care of your health. When you reach Youzhou, remember to send a letter home…  Zhou Linghuai nodded. “Grandnephew, remember everything.”

Old Madam Yu originally wanted to give more instructions, but when she thought about how unfathomable this grandnephew of hers was and how he must know many things, she changed the topic. “King

You’s grievances have been resolved. The position of commander in charge of Youzhou is also hereditary. The Imperial Court will probably be reinstated. However, your health isn’t good. In the future, you’ll be living in the capital for a long time and have to cut ties with the Zhou Clan. This official position is also a hot potato for you. Mihen the time comes, you can ask for more grace and forget about the official position.”

Commanding troops was a military duty. He had to lead troops to the battlefield. With his health condition, if the Imperial Court was reinstated, this position would most likely not be assigned to him.
Instead of letting that group of despicable people from the Zhou Clan benefit, it was better to directly ask for more grace. Without an official position, he would also be peaceful.
Yu Youyao’s heart skipped a beat.

Since this matter concerned the Zhou family, her grandmother shouldn’t have said much. However, she had already said what she shouldn’t have said, but she was still sincere.
It was obvious that she really treated her cousin as one of her own.

Zhou Linghuai naturally understood what Old Madam was thinking. “Since the
Zhou Clan has expelled me from the clan, I’m not a descendant of the Zhou Clan. I’m not capable of taking on the role of commander, so I naturally have to ask for grace.”

Back then, when he made the deal with “Zhou Linghuai”, they already had an understanding.
He used his identity as “Zhou Linghuai”. From now on, Zhou Linghuai would no longer be Zhou Linghuai. All matters regarding his identity as “Zhou Linghuai” would be handled by him.
The only thing he needed to do was avenge the Zhou family.

Old Madam Yu e s expression relaxed. “If the Zhou Clan makes things difficult for you, just use the name of the Yu Residence. I don’t think the small Zhou Clan will dare to act rashly!
At this point, her expression darkened.
Zhou Linghuai nodded.

Old Madam Yu was worried and asked Yu Youyao, “Have you prepared everything? Your cousin’s body is weak, so you need to prepare more carefully.”
Yu Youyao smiled and said, “It’s all done Grandmother, don’t worry!’  Yesterday, after packing up, she had specially drafted a list for her grandmother to take a look.

Old Madam Yu thought of the list and couldn’t help but laugh. “I forgot that you and your cousin are the closest in the family. You’re the most nervous about your cousin returning to Youzhou. There’s nothing you can’t do…
With that, Zhou Linghuai bade Old Madam Yu farewell.

Yu Youyao really got into the carriage and sent Zhou Linghuai out of the city.
Outside the city!

Yu Youyao hesitated for a moment before taking out a sachet. “This is the Soul Seizing Incense. If it’s light, it will mess up one’s mind, making one rash, irritable, and easily angry. If it’s heavy, it can even make one go crazy.” She hesitated but still whispered, “It’s fatal!”
If there was medicinal fragrance, there was naturally a poisonous fragrance.

Despite her hesitation, she still did it.
The little girl lowered her head, not daring to look at him. Even her hand that was holding the sachet was trembling slightly. When she said the word “fatal”, her voice unknowingly revealed panic.

Zhou Linghuai’s expression was indifferent, but he did not say anything.
Yu Youyao was a smart girl. Therefore, when she found out that he planned to use the Cooperation strategy to defeat Li Qiguang and flatten the rebellion in Shandong, she knew that the effect of the Soul

Seizing Incense would have an unexpected effect on breaking the clan alliance, so she secretly used it.
The reason why she had only taken it out now was probably because this was the first time she had made such a “fatal” poisonous fragrance. Her heart was also filled with conflict.
After Madam Yang entered the Tranquil Heart Residence, Yu Youyao’s management skills were revealed. No one in the residence treated her as a child..
