The Time Traveling Prince Consort Plans to Rule the World for Me

In the conference room, everyone except Mu Jin had arrived. Nangong Min sat at his seat, silently looking down at the cup of tea on the table.

Suddenly, a soldier's announcement came from outside the door, "Deputy General Mu is here." Hearing the call, Nangong Min paused, quickly stood up and looked towards the door.

When Mu Jin entered the meeting room, she was stared at by a burning gaze. She seemed to sense something and followed that gaze. Her steps could not help but pause. Then she realized that the so-called old friend was actually Nangong Min, so she walked to the seat next to Mu Yan and sat down.

When Mu Yan saw Mu Jin coming, he couldn't help but smile: "Ah Jin, look, who's here? It's Eleven, oh no, it's Sect Master Nangong! You see, this is really a wish come true. I just released a carrier pigeon for him today, and he's here."

Mu Jin hasn't seen Nangong Min for a long time. Ever since he had a conversation with Nangong Min at Nangong Divine Sect, there has been no news from him, nor has he seen him.

She still remembered that Nangong Min was seriously injured for her, and she was deeply moved and agreed to be with him. She also remembered that when she was in Nangong Divine Sect, Nangong Min broke his forehead in front of Nangong Yun in order to make Nangong Yun accept her, and tried to cover it with his black hair to avoid worrying her.

All the past events seemed to reappear yesterday. Now, after only a few months of not seeing each other, Nangong Min's black hair has turned gray at the temples.

Mu Jin smiled at Nangong Min: "Min, long time no see."

Su Yi couldn't stand Mu Jin and Nangong Min addressing him so intimately, so he interrupted.

"Ajin, don't be rude. The current Nangong Sect Master is not the amnesiac eleventh guard of your Mu family. The current Nangong Sect Master has inherited the position of Sect Master and married the Miaogong Spirit Girl."

After Su Yi finished speaking, he turned around and congratulated Nangong Min, saying, "The incident happened suddenly that day, and Ah Jin and I were unable to stay in Nangong Divine Sect to attend the ceremony of the Sect Master and his wife. I also heard that the Sect Master's wife is already six months pregnant. Calculating the time, it happened to be the time when Ah Jin and I were guests in Nangong Divine Sect."

"I would like to congratulate the Sect Master. When the young master is born, Ajin and I will definitely give him a great gift."

When Nangong Min heard Su Yi say this, he felt as if someone was pinching his heart. He instinctively looked at Mu Jin in panic, but when he saw that Mu Jin was not looking at him, his face turned pale.

Nangong Min hadn't seen Mu Jin for a long time, and he missed her every day. He often thought that if he hadn't gone back to Nangong Divine Sect with Mu Jin, then the person sitting next to Mu Jin now would not still be him.

However, the interests of his family, the threat from Nangong Yun and the mission of the common people forced him to choose between the responsibility he was unwilling to bear and Mu Jin.

Moreover, after he was plotted against by Nangong Yun and became husband and wife with Bai Ling'er, he felt that he was no longer worthy of Mu Jin, so he restrained the urge to look for Mu Jin.

Nangong Min turned around and bowed to Su Yi, saying, "Your Majesty, there is no need to be polite."

Mu Yan asked Nangong Min: "Sect Master, there is something I don't know. I just sent you a letter by carrier pigeon today, but Nangong Divine Sect is very far away from here. Even if the carrier pigeon is as fast as possible, it will take two days for it to arrive. How come you can come so quickly?"

Nangong Min turned his head to look at Mu Yan, but his eyes were only on Mu Jin beside Mu Yan. He looked at Mu Jin infatuatedly and answered Mu Yan's words.

"Ever since Nangong Ce escaped from Nangong Shenzong, Shenzong has issued a hunting order against Nangong Ce, but he has been hiding in the Dongyue royal family, and we can't do anything about him for the time being."

"Two months ago, I heard that His Majesty Dong Yue had died. The symptoms before his death should be due to the Soul-Separation Pill. I also heard that after Su Yuntian ascended the throne, Nangong Ce purchased a large amount of Heart-Eating Grass. This grass must have been used to refine a secret poison that has been banned for a long time in our sect."

Mu Yan asked urgently: "What kind of forbidden secret poison?"

Nangong Min said: "Corpse poison!"

When everyone heard this, they were shocked. Mu Jin also felt a dull pain in the wound on his neck.

Nangong Min continued, "I calculated the amount of Heart-Eating Grass that Nangong Ce used. It must have been used on tens of thousands of people. After the emperor inherited the title of Emperor Shuntian of Southern Shu, he went to Beiqi and sent troops to Southern Shu. I immediately thought that the corpse poison made from the Heart-Eating Grass must be used against Southern Shu. So, half a month ago, I received the news and rushed over from Nangong Divine Sect to Southern Shu."

When Mu Yan heard this, he laughed again: "Everyone says that Nangong Divine Sect is in trouble for saving people. If that is true, with the help of the Sect Master, I believe that Nangong Ce's corpse poison will be useless to us."

Su Yi also picked up the teacup and toasted Nangong Min, "Master Nan, please help me with tea instead of wine."

When everyone saw Su Yi standing up, they also picked up their wine glasses and stood up, raising their glasses to Nangong Min.

Suddenly, there was a sound of a teacup breaking, followed by several terrified cries of "A Jin!"

Mu Jin fainted beside Mu Yan and was caught by Mu Yan: "Ajin, what's wrong with you?"

Su Yi instantly moved to Mu Jin's side and took Mu Jin from Mu Yan's hands, while Nangong Min followed and anxiously held Mu Jin's wrist with one hand.

"Why did Ah Jin get poisoned?" Nangong Min took Mu Jin's pulse and asked Su Yi in a trembling voice, "Why didn't you protect her?"

"Corpse poison? Ah Jin was poisoned by corpse poison? How could that be? She was fine when she returned to the camp tonight. Did you make a mistake in your diagnosis?"

When Su Yi heard that Mu Jin was poisoned by corpse, his face turned pale, followed by a panic. He said in a self-blaming and panicked voice: "It's my fault. I didn't notice that she was injured by the wounded soldiers. I beg you to save Ah Jin. I will agree to whatever you want."

Nangong Min took Mu Jin from Su Yi, but Su Yi instinctively did not let go. Nangong Min glared at Su Yi angrily and said, "If you don't want Ah Jin to die, please let go!"

Upon hearing this, Su Yi quickly loosened his arms around Mu Jin. The beauty in his arms felt familiar and soft, but Nangong Min did not have time to miss it.

Nangong Min asked all irrelevant people to leave the meeting room, and asked someone to bring a clean teacup. He took out a pill from his arms and put it into the teacup, then dissolved it with warm water. He then took out a small knife from his body, cut his palm, and fed the dissolved pill to Mu Jin with the blood from his palm.

The lip balm stained the teacup, and Nangong Min was shocked to realize that Mu Jin had put on lip balm tonight. He raised his hand and gently wiped off the blush, and Mu Jin's lips instantly turned dark blue.

No one had noticed Mu Jin's abnormality before. It turned out that she was wearing makeup to hide her true complexion. However, she never liked to wear makeup. Why was she like this tonight? The three of them were filled with thoughts.

Mu Yan was standing nearby, feeling full of self-blame. "It's all my fault for not being a good brother. I didn't take good care of Ah Jin. I deserve to die!" Before he could finish his words, he slapped himself hard a few times.

Su Yi looked at Mu Jin who was unconscious in Nangong Min's arms, and his heart ached as if it was being cut by a knife.

Mu Yan asked anxiously, "Master Nan, why hasn't Ah Jin woken up after taking the elixir? When will she wake up?"

Nangong Min held Mu Jin in his arms, staring at her infatuatedly. He had just felt Mu Jin's pulse and knew that she had just fallen ill and that taking the detoxification pill mixed with his blood should be fine. But looking at the person sleeping in his arms, his heart still felt like it had been dug out by someone, leaving him empty.
