Men are superior to women: the heartthrob in Yunqi
Chapter 45: Crisis Returns
Two bright red spots appeared on her rosy cheeks and gradually spread to her ears.
This time, Mu Yao did not withdraw her slender fingers. Instead, she smiled beautifully, met his anxious gaze, and nodded slightly.
Silence is better than words at this moment. Helian Yun was so excited that he pulled the wound on his abdomen, causing beads of sweat to ooze out of his forehead.
"Let me see." Mu Yao stiffened her back, lifted the quilt, and saw a bright red on the snow-white undershirt. She quickly took out a Qi-Gathering Pill and stuffed it into his mouth. Although this medicine does not have the effect of stopping bleeding, it can replenish Qi and strengthen the body, and has a miraculous effect on treating internal injuries. She originally refined eight pills, and had three left on her body, originally reserved for Xu Qingcheng.
The pill melted in his mouth, and Helian Yun felt instantly comfortable all over. A warm current gathered in his dantian and flowed towards his meridians.
He was amazed at the efficacy of the pill, which was several times better than his family's "Ningshen Pills".
"Yaoyao, what is this medicine?"
"Do not talk."
Mu Yao's fierce and delicate voice sounded particularly pleasant to Helian Yun. He watched in a trance as the beauty quickly opened the acupuncture bag placed on the table, took out a few golden needles, and burned them inch by inch in the candlelight. Then she gently leaned his body against the satin pillow.
The almost close distance made Helian Yun tighten his fingers around the quilt. A few strands of black hair brushed against the rosy cheeks, and the slight itch made him feel hot under his body. He had to carefully lift the quilt, turn his face to the side to avoid the ambiguity, and take a deep breath of the cool air, but he didn't expect to smell the stronger scent of gardenia.
Without moving his eyebrows, he stretched out his big hand tremblingly and reached out to her waist, only to see the beauty stand up and carefully search for bandage materials in the medicine box beside her.
Looking at the abdomen, I found that four or five golden needles had been firmly inserted into it, and the wound surprisingly stopped bleeding.
He gazed at Mu Yao deeply, and suddenly realized that he seemed not to know his sweetheart well enough.
By the time Mu Yao took out the golden needle and wrapped it with new gauze, Helian Yun was already soaked in sweat.
Mu Yao looked at his uncertain handsome face with some surprise, and put her jade fingers on his wrist again. She felt relieved only after confirming that he was fine.
"Apart from the wound, are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere else?" she asked again, uncertainly.
He felt uncomfortable everywhere. A tingling sensation spread all over his body and then gathered at the tip of his heart, like the burning sensation before a volcano erupted. The pain was so severe that he had long forgotten the pain in his abdomen.
"I'm fine. Yaoyao knows medicine?" He tried to change the subject in a hoarse voice while suppressing the heat.
Mu Yao wrapped the last golden needle and looked up at the man in front of her. She recalled the day when she brushed against the willow branches and saw the mist on the tip of the tree. She caught a glimpse of him for the first time. He seemed like an old friend.
Twice he risked his life to save others, and the mountains are so high, but the bond cannot be severed.
She smiled sweetly and said very seriously: "Helian Yun, are you willing to say goodbye to me every morning and every night, slowly enjoy the fireworks of the world, and grow old together under the misty trees?"
This is her affirmation and commitment to Helian Yun.
"I wish to hold Yaoyao's hand for the rest of my life, and spend the rest of my life with you, until we grow old together. Even if there are thousands of difficulties and obstacles, and even if all my glory fades, I will only rely on you."
There were stars in Helian Yun's eyes, filled with infinite tenderness. The corners of his lips trembled slightly, and he spoke out his long-buried thoughts word by word with difficulty.
He never dreamed that he would hear Yaoyao express her feelings in person. He had always thought that his obsession and love were one-sided.
The broad palm tightly grasped the tender hand in his hand, and he leaned forward, wanting to rub the treasure in front of him into his bones and blood.
"Lie still and don't move." Mu Yao raised her voice and warned. She didn't have any medicine to stop the bleeding, and if she pulled the wound again, it would take longer to heal.
Mu Yao brushed the loose hair on his forehead and pulled the quilt over him. She said gently with a soft look in her eyes, "My specialty is medicine, which only very few people close to me know. The Qi Gathering Pill you just took was made by me. In addition to replenishing Qi and treating internal injuries, it also has a miraculous effect of keeping your face young. However, this medicine is useless if you take it too much. One pill within half a year is enough. In the next two days, I will make you some medicine that can stop bleeding quickly. You should rest well and don't move too much. Call us if there is anything. Got it?"
During the past forty years, apart from being taken care of so attentively and tenderly by my mother, I have never been treated so gently and tenderly by any other woman. My heart is filled with a tingling sensation, and I feel indescribable attachment and endless satisfaction.
He asked in a hoarse voice with great expectation: "Were you the one who saved me yesterday?"
Hearing this, Mu Yao was surprised at his sharpness.
The beauty's expression explained everything. Helian Yun pursed his lips tightly, restraining the surge in his heart from hurting his wounds, and tried his best to calmly say: "When Doctor Wen was treating me, he repeatedly shook his head in disbelief and lamented that I was blessed with a long life. There is no such magical thing in the world. I know my own injuries, and at that time I was almost waving to the King of Hell." As he said this, he stretched out his left hand, as warm as jade, to Mu Yao. The sunset glowed through the porch and sprinkled on the back of his hand, with a delicate golden light.
Mu Yao took his delicate and slender fingers, lowered her eyes and smiled softly: "Then are we even?"
Her delicate hand was pulled hard, and she lost her balance, half of her body pressing against his chest, causing him to groan in pain.
Mu Yao was speechless. She felt that all her efforts were in vain. She glared at the patient who did not follow the doctor's advice. His eyes were full of solemnity. He said in a sonorous voice, "I saved you twice. I still have one life left. I am willing to bet that I will be with you for the rest of my life until I die."
The unquestionable words reminded Mu Yao of what her father once said:
Helian Yun will fight you to the death even if it costs him the rest of his life.
Do what feels right.
She let out a light laugh that echoed in the room, making the person on the bed itchy, but he was powerless to do anything and could only resign himself to watching his sweetheart being naughty alone.
Back to Qiziyuan
She walked quickly to the treasure house in the back room, struggling to find the one hundred boxes of medicinal herbs her father had prepared for her among the boxes of dowry. She had looked at the list, and the types in it were enough for her to refine the Guyuan Pill and the Jiuzhuan Wanshou Pill.
Although the Nine-Turn Longevity Pill was not as effective as the Return to God Pill, it was also a rare life-saving medicine when life was in danger. After she finished refining these two pills, she would try to improve the recipe to see if she could develop a quick-rescue medicine with better efficacy.
When she turned around suddenly, she saw Xu Qingcheng standing at the door with bloodshot eyes, staring at her busy back in a daze.
A feeling of bitterness and panic struck Mu Yao's heart. She shivered and slowly stood up, tightly holding the "Jade Ganoderma" that emitted an icy blue light in her hand.
"Come here!" He suppressed the bitterness in his heart, swallowed all the red tears, and roared in a low voice in pain.
Mu Yao rushed forward, and Xu Qingcheng's reaction clearly showed that he knew.
The difficult words got stuck in his throat and were covered up before he could utter them.
He punished her recklessly, snatching the oxygen from her mouth bit by bit. When she was on the verge of suffocation, tears like rain poured into her red lips and soaked her clothes along her jade neck.
Men don't shed tears easily, only because they haven't reached the point of being sad. Mu Yao's heart ached so much that she raised her arms and hugged him tightly.
Xu Qingcheng was extremely sad. He took a breath with a sob and pressed forward again. With his eyes half closed, he held the beautiful bride in his arms tightly. Inside the red tent, her clothes were scattered all over the floor, and her black hair was tangled. The rich cold fragrance of cedar lingered on his nose, rolling and unrolling, until death.
When she looked up again, it was already the afternoon of the next day. Xu Qingcheng gently stroked the red plum blossoms on her fair skin, and looked at her delicate face with an extremely complicated expression.
A burst of hurried footsteps brought him back to his senses. He put on his green shirt and walked out of the inner room, only to see Tang Zhongjun anxiously wandering outside the door.
When he saw the person coming, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Third Master, the Princess and the Prime Minister asked you and the Young Madam to go to the central hall immediately."
Xu Qingcheng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart, and immediately said: "The young lady hasn't woken up yet, I will go with you first."
Tang Zhongjun was about to say something but stopped himself. Since this matter concerned the young lady, how could he not show up? He had no choice but to bite the bullet and said, "Third Master, wake up the young lady. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of War are here too."
"What?" Xu Qingcheng's pupils shrank suddenly. She no longer worried and hurried back to the inner room. She gently patted Jiaoniang and coaxed her: "Ayao, someone is coming from the palace. Come with me to the central hall and come back to sleep later."
Mu Yao didn't move at all, her beautiful eyes half-opened in a daze, as if she didn't want to pay attention to the gentle words in her ears.
Seeing her exhausted, Xu Qingcheng felt so distressed that she put her arms around her shoulders, picked her up, and quickly and carefully fixed her hair and clothes. Seeing that she was still half asleep, she gently wiped her face.
The cool water instantly sobered her up. When she heard someone coming from the palace, the remaining sleepiness disappeared. She didn't know if her father-in-law and mother-in-law had borrowed troops from the emperor. She quickly rinsed her mouth with tea and followed Xu Qingcheng to the central hall.
The central hall was full of people. In addition to her father and her parents-in-law, there were also Helian Yun's parents, the Crown Prince Ye Qinghan, and the War Prince Ye Lianhe. There were also several unfamiliar old men, one of whom looked over fifty years old, staring at her closely with a sharp gaze.
Mu Yao's heart sank when she saw everyone's solemn expressions, and she listened attentively to what was said next.
Li Taifu felt distressed when he saw his daughter sitting upright. He didn't want her to know about this matter, but it involved the emperor's will.
He said succinctly, "Lord Wang, the Minister of the Dali Temple, and Liu Huifeng, the owner of the No. 1 Manor in the World, are in the hands of the Bloodthirsty Pavilion."
What? The Bloodthirsty Pavilion captured Wang Yanzhi?
Mu Yao looked at Master Li in astonishment, not daring to believe what she heard.
Was Lord Wang there that day? She hadn't noticed him. Liu Huifeng, the owner of the No. 1 Manor in the World? Liu Huifeng?
She silently repeated the name in her mind, as if she had heard it somewhere before. It seemed to be... the day of the treasure-chasing meeting.
Seeing Mu Yao's extremely shocked expression, Xu Yuanming continued in a deep voice, "I received a letter this morning. Lord Wang and Liu Huifeng must have been silently protecting you for some time. They were captured when they were secretly escorting you into the mansion on the day of your wedding."
He had mixed feelings about Wang Yanzhi's devotion. No wonder he didn't see Lord Wang attend the banquet that day, as he was the first to deliver the wedding invitation.
Hearing this, Mu Yao subconsciously curled her jade fingers, and recalled Wang Yanzhi's promise to her in the Linglong Pavilion Garden that day: "Don't worry, Miss Mu, leave everything to me."
It turned out that he had done so much for her silently, but she didn't notice it at all.
Mu Yao slowly closed her eyes. The strong feeling of guilt made her feel ashamed, and her small nose was stained with a hint of red.
After a while, she sorted out her thoughts and asked in a trembling voice, "I don't know Manor Master Liu, why would he protect me so much?"
"Don't know him?" Liu Baichuan looked a little embarrassed and said in an unhappy tone.
"That kid is stupid enough. He gave you all the seven treasures left by his mother, but you still didn't like them. Wang Yanzhi is even more stupid. He offered my son a reward of over 100 million yuan, but he still gave it silently. What are these two kids trying to do? They are so stupid."
Liu Baichuan looked at the stunning beauty in front of him. It was no wonder that "Wuming" would take action. If he were a few decades younger and had such strength, he would have snatched her up without hesitation.
To him, Jiang Fuqiu was like the bright moon in the sky that was out of reach. Compared with the woman in front of him, he felt that at his age, he still had a chance to marry her. This time, Wang Yanzhi was captured, and Jiang Fuqiu came to him very rarely. No matter what, he had to rescue Wang Yanzhi and his son.
Mu Yao's mind was full of Liu Baichuan's words. It turned out that the seven pieces of jewelry were given by Liu Huifeng. And Wang Yanzhi spent a huge amount of money to buy the No. 1 Manor in the world to protect her.
She deeply regretted revealing her true face in "Water and Clouds" that day. She should have kept it hidden and lived with Xu Qingcheng for the rest of her life.
The number of favors she owed was increasing. What should she do?
"That person wants me to exchange for Lord Wang and Master Liu, right?" Mu Yao said with certainty.
"No!" Xu Qingcheng interrupted immediately.
Li Taifu weighed the words in his mind very quickly. From what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said, the Emperor was determined to protect Wang Yanzhi. This forced him to think carefully about the reasons and countermeasures.
Ye Jingshu looked at the newly married couple with red eyes. These two children were really in trouble. She understood the emperor's intention. If it were anyone else, they would not hesitate to protect their own children first. But Yaoyao was so innocent. Was he really going to hand over his daughter-in-law?
The letter from the Bloodthirsty Pavilion clearly stated that if they didn't hand over the person within 24 hours, they would kill both of them. Thinking of their methods that day, she shuddered. One who made a living by blood must not be judged by common sense.
Seeing that everyone in the hall was silent and didn't care about the Crown Prince and the War King at all, Xu Qingcheng smashed the table with a palm, stood up and said word by word: "If you want to use my wife, Xu Qingcheng, to exchange the lives of Wang Yanzhi and Liu Huifeng, you have to step over my dead body. All of you are not thinking about how to rescue them, but trying to make A Yao compromise. What's the meaning? What are you doing? My wife has no idea about what they did, why should she pay for them?"
After he finished speaking, he pulled A Yao up and was about to leave.
"How outrageous!" Xu Yuanming slammed the table heavily.
"Sit down. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the War King are both here, so you won't be so rude. Besides, did you hear that we were going to exchange A Yao?" Xu Yuanming said unhappily. He was already annoyed enough, and his son's disturbance made him even more annoyed.
"What do you mean? Please tell me clearly!" Xu Qingcheng was furious. A bunch of people called them to talk for a long time, but they couldn't come up with a solution. Since you don't want to exchange A Yao, then you should tell me the solution!
Mu Yao clearly felt the strength of Xu Qingcheng's grip on her wrist. She was struggling internally, and the chill that penetrated her heart made her lose half of her will to live.
Yes, Xu Qingcheng was right. Why should she pay for the other party's silent efforts? But Wang Yanzhi was one of the two people!
She had no choice but to save Wang Yanzhi.
