Capítulo 227: New Disciple.

After draping her woolen cloak over her shoulders, Yang Ning joined Zheng Liang, and together they proceeded to the study where Master Jiang awaited them.

"Greetings to His Highness and the Crown Princess." Master Jiang rose from his seat with a respectful bow as the couple entered the room, his voice laced with the formal courtesy due to their rank.

With gracious smiles, Yang Ning and Zheng Liang acknowledged his greeting and took their places at the table. Zheng Liang relaxed into his chair and thoughtfully pulled Yang Ning's chair beside him, inviting her to sit close to his side.

On the other side of the table, Master Jiang settled into his seat, his eyes warm as he regarded the couple. Once they were comfortably seated, his attention shifted to Zheng Liang, concern creasing his brow. "Your Highness, how are you feeling? Has the pain in your wound lessened?" he inquired, his voice tinged with genuine concern.
