I have been farming since I crossed over.

Chapter 281: Enemies on the surface, but actually sympathetic to each other

The meal was a sumptuous affair, with the table laden with a variety of delicious dishes. Everyone gathered around the table, feasting heartily, laughter and chatter filling the air, their faces brimming with satisfaction and joy.

After eating and drinking to their heart's content, the virtuous king smiled and slowly said, "Old Master Lu, today's pleasant scenery, such a wonderful time, coupled with such mouth-watering food, really make me reluctant to leave! A life like this is what a person should really have!" After that, he shook his head gently, as if he was still immersed in the wonderful atmosphere just now.

Old Man Lu reached out and gently stroked his long beard as he humbly replied, "Your Highness, you are so kind! We are just plain farmers here, living in the countryside. All we seek is a sense of leisure and freedom, a taste of novelty. How can it compare to the delicacies of the royal palace?"

Hearing this, the wise king couldn't help but burst into laughter and praised repeatedly: "What a leisurely and comfortable life! Hahahahaha..." Before his laughter died down, he stood up and left the table gracefully.

His Royal Highness the Wise King left his seat, his tall and majestic figure gradually moving away. As he left, everyone in the dining room put down their chopsticks, stood up at the same time, and walked out the door in an orderly manner.

Seeing this, Yang Mingxi also quickly stood up. When she was about to clean up the messy dishes on the table, Lu Jintang rushed over like a gust of wind, grabbed her and ran out the door.

"Oh! Lu Jintang, where are you going? This place hasn't been cleaned up yet!" Yang Mingxi couldn't help but exclaimed, trying to break free from Lu Jintang's hand while looking back at the mess on the table.

"Don't worry about that, there's an urgent matter! We have to hurry to grandpa's study." Lu Jintang shouted without turning his head, with no intention of slowing down his pace.

"What's the urgent matter? Why are you in such a hurry?" Yang Mingxi was full of doubts, but was still dragged by Lu Jintang to jog.

At this moment, a kind voice was heard: "Xiao girl, go and do your work, leave this to me." It turned out that Old Lady Lu had walked up to them at some point.

Hearing what Old Lady Lu said, Yang Mingxi felt a little relieved and let Lu Jintang drag her as she quickly ran towards Old Man Lu's study.

Along the way, Yang Mingxi was dragged by Lu Jintang across the courtyard, passed by the reception room, and finally arrived at the door of Old Man Lu's study, panting.

"Come right in! No need to be so polite." The steady and magnetic voice of His Royal Highness the Wise King came from the study. The voice seemed to carry an unquestionable majesty, yet it also revealed a certain warmth and ease.

Yang Mingxi stood at the doorway, subconsciously glancing at Lu Jintang beside her. A hint of doubt welled up in her heart. She really didn't understand why she was brought here to meet this renowned and virtuous prince.

At this moment, Lu Jintang explained softly: "He is actually one of my few friends, but on the surface, we are out-and-out rivals!"

These words left Yang Mingxi even more confused. She widened her eyes and asked in confusion, "What? Why don't I understand anything?"

Lu Jintang smiled slightly and patiently explained further: "Simply put, to outsiders, we are like a pair of enemies, always confronting each other and refusing to give in. But in fact, we sympathize with each other because we have many very similar life situations and experiences." After that, Lu Jintang did not delay any longer and walked into the study.

Yang Mingxi followed closely behind, about a meter behind Lu Jintang. As she entered the study, she heard the virtuous king say, "Thirteenth is here. Please take a seat. I have some questions for your wife. Did you bring her with you?"

Yang Mingxi did not dare to be negligent and responded quickly: "I am already here. If your Majesty has any questions, please feel free to ask." She bowed slightly, her tone full of respect.

Seeing this, the virtuous king nodded with satisfaction, then turned his gaze to Yang Mingxi and asked straight to the point: "Thirteenth wife, I want to know in depth what the specific symptoms of allergies are like." After that, he stared at Yang Mingxi quietly, waiting for her answer.

Yang Mingxi's heart tightened. All she knew were some superficial allergies. Yet, facing the questioning from the virtuous king, she could only grit her teeth and respond. She quickly focused her mind, searching the large screen in her space with her thoughts. Soon, the relevant information appeared before her.

Yang Mingxi took a deep breath and slowly read the words on the screen: "Generally speaking, allergy sufferers will experience symptoms such as skin papules, red eyes, runny nose, and frequent sneezing. If the condition is more serious, it may cause difficulty breathing and even be life-threatening." After finishing reading, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the virtuous king suddenly said excitedly: "Red eyes, runny nose... Hahaha! Looking back to the past, my seventh brother also had an allergy, and the allergen was just peanuts. But the queen falsely accused my mother of poisoning my seventh brother, which eventually made the emperor furious, and he imprisoned my mother in the cold palace. Not long after, my mother passed away. Mother, you are really wronged!" At this point, the virtuous king was already in tears, and his grief was beyond words.

"My virtuous king, please accept my condolences!" Old man Lu said with a sad face. He looked at the virtuous king in front of him with a sad expression, and a trace of pity welled up in his heart.

Yang Mingxi said softly, "Your Highness, do you have any other questions for me?" Her eyes revealed concern and caution.

The wise king slowly raised his head, a glimmer of hope in his eyes, and asked, "Since you know about this 'allergy' disease, can you cure it?" There was a hint of anxiety and expectation in his voice.

Yang Mingxi pondered for a moment, then replied: "Your Highness, if the symptoms are mild, they will heal on their own in a certain period of time, but if the symptoms are severe, it will be difficult. However, I will do my best to research and improve the prescription, and strive to compile a prescription specifically for this disease as soon as possible!" Her tone was firm and sincere.

Hearing this, the virtuous king nodded slightly in agreement. He then pressed on, "So, according to what you said, if this disease becomes serious, what will happen? What specific symptoms will appear?" Clearly, the virtuous king was extremely concerned about the development of this disease.

"Difficulty breathing, even death."
