"When you go out to carry out tasks in the future, just dress . The other box contains men’s clothing. You’re a woman, so sometimes, it’s more convenient to dress as a man when you go to certain places,"
"That’s true," Lin Caisang nodded.
Previously when she went out on tasks, even if Ya Molian was by her side. She would still be questioned about her medical skills because she’s a woman.
Being questioned is fine, it doesn’t matter much.
But some people truly lack common sense to call her a liar right in front of Ya Molian. It would be better to dress as a man in the future while making diagnoses to save her from any embarrassment.
Though, she genuinely wanted everyone to know that she was a woman, a female healer.
However, all these thoughts were secondary. The key was to do her task well, earn as much credit as possible, as well as accumulate more gratitude points.
But as she listened to Ya Molian’s words, something felt off.
"If it’s more convenient for me to dress as a man when I go on tasks, Brother Molian, are you planning to go on a journey?" she asked.
If Ya Molian was with her, how would it matter if she dressed as a woman? Who would dare to lay a finger on her? Unless... Ya Molian was planning to leave for a while and worried that she would encounter danger while performing tasks alone.
Hearing this, Ya Molian sighed lightly.
"News came from Shaohua City (the capital of Wei State), the Empress Dowager is seriously ill and bedridden, I’ve been summoned to attend to her," he said.
"Your grandmother is ill, is it serious, should I go..."
Upon hearing his words, Lin Caisang found herself blurting out a question before understanding his words properly
Despite his(her own "Brother Molian") unkind family, they are still relatives after all. Furthermore, Ya Molian has rarely mentioned his(her own "Brother Molian") grandmother in the past, perhaps she is not so bad?
It is always worth trying to save a life if possible.
Ya Molian sighed, looking at her helplessly.
With this one look from him, Lin Caisang suddenly understood.
Perhaps the emperor of her Brother Molian’s family feels that his son is no longer under his control and wants to summon him back to make some moves? Otherwise, it would be impossible to summon a grandson with a cursed fate to attend to a seriously ill empress dowager. Does the emperor of Wei State think that his own mother has lived long enough and wants his own son to go there and curse her to death?
"So how are you going to handle this? Are you planning to go back?" she asked.
"I have to go back eventually,"
Ya Molian stared at the wall thoughtfully, speaking softly.
"Having been cast aside for so many years, it’s time to go back and reclaim what is rightfully mine. Don’t you think so, Caisang?"
Lin Caisang gave a resolute answer.
"So when are you planning to leave? Tomorrow? But I still want to prepare some things for you here. In that place full of traps and pitfalls, some self-defense items are indispensable. I need to prepare more ’Fearless’ for you, along with some antidotes, and..."
Ya Molian interrupted her before she could finish.
He raised his hand, lightly patting her shoulder a few times to signal her not to panic.
"The news came directly from the Nine Lotus Hall, received yesterday. However, if a message came from Wei State, it would take a few more days to reach here."
"Well, that’s a relief."
Upon hearing this, Lin Caisang sighed in relief.
