Great, it's just a lackey, we're saved!

Chapter 24 If she's unwilling, beat her until she agrees!

After seeing off the rambling Physician Chen, Hongxiu couldn't help but sigh.

"Thank goodness the princess is alright! The meridians that were damaged three years ago are still slowly repairing. It's truly a blessing for the princess!"

Ziyu and Zhou Wei exchanged a glance and remained silent.

As she spoke, Hongxiu clasped her hands together and prayed to the heavens.

After she finished praying, she turned to look at Zhou Wei and Ziyu.

"The princess has not yet woken up, so I will take care of her today."

“No, Aunt Hongxiu, Physician Chen just said that it will take some time for the princess to wake up. How can you manage to stay by her side alone? Why don’t Wei-jie and I take turns with you?”

Ziyu meant well, but Hongxiu waved her hand and refused.

"No need, the princess is used to being served by me, I don't trust you to do it."

Ziyu was about to say a few more words of advice when Zhou Wei said, "Alright! Then Aunt Hongxiu will be on duty. I'm going to sleep now."

"I woke up too early this morning, and I'm a little sleepy now."

After saying that, he turned and left without looking back.

Ziyu stared in surprise at Zhou Wei's retreating figure.

"This……"

Hongxiu pouted and said, "Is this all? And you still claim to be the number one under the princess?"

"When the princess can't see, she doesn't want to exert any effort at all!"

That's obvious!

Zhou Wei's philosophy of life is to work hard enough to keep the boss on the job.

Otherwise, how will anyone know what you've been working so hard for?

An employee who doesn't know how to take credit or play the victim isn't a good employee.

It's the same as being a dog!

Jiang Yueli has already lain down, why don't you take this opportunity to rest?

Please, I'm not a cow or a horse!

Back in her room, lying on the soft bed, Zhou Wei let out a comfortable moan.

To be honest, being a general is quite tiring.

While the act of whipping people can be exhilarating, doing it too often can lead to fatigue.

Even mothers need rest!

[Random promotion quest triggered: Suppress Lu Zhiyan, the male protagonist of the transmigrated farming female protagonist story!]

[Reward: Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique)]

[Lingbo Weibu: Agile steps, elusive movements, and most importantly, the ability to move swiftly across water.]

Cow!

That skill!

So, it can float on water?

Even if you fall into the river, you won't drown.

It can be very useful in critical moments!

[Congratulations, host, you have completed five promotion tasks.]

[Reward: Unlocks the bond with Jiang Yueli, the bound user's superior.]

Boss Bonds: As someone working for your boss, do you often worry about being abandoned? With bonds, none of that matters.

The higher the bond level, the greater the interaction, until they become an inseparable whole.

Ok?

An inseparable whole...

The choice of words!

System, you're in danger!

I don't play this.

Perhaps hearing Zhou Wei's complaints, the system offered an explanation.

The greater the interaction, the more your boss, Jiang Yueli, needs you.

[An inseparable whole: You are me, and I am you. Whoever you offend, will hate Jiang Yueli.]

[Current bond level between the host and their superior, Jiang Yueli: 10 (She will not abandon you)]

Inverted!

Even after explaining, it still feels weird!

Forget it, I won't dwell on it anymore.

As long as he knows that given his current bond with Jiang Yueli, she won't easily hand him over as a pawn, that's enough.

Then she can focus on doing her job well, right?

Continue to help Jiang Yueli provoke the female lead of destiny in order to deepen their bond and obtain more rewards.

However, Zhou Wei, who possesses several skills, thought of a rather important question.

"My current skills, if not great, are enough to kick a master like Wan Qianliang from the Divine Doctor Valley."

"But if we agree, I don't understand Qi, otherwise I could have seen Jiang Yueli's problem just now by taking her pulse."

The imperial physician Chen who took Jiang Yueli's pulse was clearly skilled in martial arts.

Therefore, he was able to detect through the flow of Qi that Jiang Yueli's meridians were being repaired.

But Zhou Wei didn't have that ability.

As the story unfolds, Zhou Wei gradually comes to understand this ancient romance world.

It seems to be a super hodgepodge world that integrates various elements such as martial arts, palace intrigue, domestic power struggles, farming, time travel, and imperial court.

The existence of blessed lands like Divine Doctor Valley, Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, Zhengshan Academy, and Kongshan Temple proves that this world is not a low-level martial arts world.

However, there must be a division of realms in high-level martial arts, which was not mentioned in the original story.

"Could it be that only those living in blessed lands and grotto-heavens know about the so-called realm of cultivation?"

"In a secular dynasty like the Great Zhou Dynasty, most people don't have access to higher levels of cultivation?"

That's a very plausible explanation!

For example, Wan Fengnian, the leader of the Divine Doctor Valley, was only mentioned by name in the original book, but never actually seen.

Every move he makes is described as unpredictable and mysterious.

Their level of skill is far beyond what ordinary masters can achieve.

If this really is a world of high martial arts, then Zhou Wei felt a vague sense of crisis.

The masters in the secular world are not scary; what's scary are the people in paradises and grottoes!

Wan Qianliang is easy to deal with, but that only extends to humiliation.

You could kick him a few times and knock him to the ground.

You could also slap him twice and tell him to get lost.

However, if Zhou Wei really wanted to kill Wan Qianliang, it would still be quite difficult.

Not to mention Wan Fengnian, a figure who exists only in legends!

It seems that the road ahead for Malolive is long and arduous.

We still need to grow bigger and stronger!

The current battles are just minor skirmishes. If I really want to become the Victorious Fighting Buddha, I still need to continue to improve my abilities.

With her career plans in mind, Zhou Wei fell into a deep sleep.

During dinner, Zhou Wei was gnawing on a large pork knuckle when Zi Yu came over with a look of surprise and delight.

"Sister Wei, the princess is awake! She specifically asked to see you."

Zhou Wei sighed and glanced at the braised pork knuckle on the table, which she had only eaten two bites of.

Pig leg, wait for me, sister!

Once I've finished being a servant to others, I'll come and get you!

Upon arriving at Princess Jiang Yueli's bedroom, they found her also having a meal.

Zhou Wei immediately used her "malou" attribute to push Hongxiu aside.

"Princess, your servant is here to serve you!"

Hongxiu glared at Zhou Wei, but Zhou Wei held her bowl with an air of arrogance.

"I am the first one personally appointed by the princess. Of course, I will serve the princess when she dine."

Hongxiu was speechless.

You slept for almost the whole day!

Now that the princess is awake, he comes running to fawn over her?

This is utterly lacking in martial ethics!

Princess Jiang Yueli didn't care about any of that and casually said, "Hongxiu, you must be tired after guarding me all day. Go and rest. Zhou Wei can stay here."

Hongxiu glared angrily at Zhou Wei, but there was nothing she could do.

After Hongxiu left, Jiang Yueli said, "Zhou Wei, this jade stone is very effective, but one piece is still not enough."

"You said... does Boss Su, Su Yunjin, have any more jade on hand? Would she be willing to sell it to us?"

Jiang Yueli felt refreshed and comfortable after waking up.

She hadn't felt this way in years.

The meridians, repaired by the warm current of the spiritual jade, are constantly flowing with vitality.

Jiang Yueli, who had long since given up hope of her health, couldn't help but burst into tears!

However, the piece of jade only gave her a taste of the sweetness.

To fully repair the damaged meridians, many more spirit stones would be needed!

Jiang Yueli had originally decided not to provoke the female lead with good fortune before she had fully developed her own power.

But now, Su Yunjin has what she needs.

Torn between the two options, Jiang Yueli decided to take the risk!

If her meridians cannot be repaired, she will be a cripple in this life, just like in her previous one.

Even if you're alive, what's the point?

Since God has given her another chance, she must seize it.

Yes, the female protagonist is protected by her luck, making her very difficult to deal with.

But I, Jiang Yueli, am not some coward!

Besides, it's just a transaction with clearly marked prices.

Su Yunjin runs a gold shop, so as long as I pay enough money, buying a piece of jade shouldn't offend her, right?

Just as Jiang Yueli was secretly making plans, she heard Zhou Wei pat her chest.

He declared righteously, "Since the princess wants it, why should I care whether Su Yunjin is willing or not? If she's not willing, I'll beat her until she is!"

what?

It's just buying something, why be so violent?

Jiang Yueli roared inwardly!
