I kicked out my vicious husband and married his great-uncle

Cui Shuyan took a deep breath and gathered all her strength to lay Xie Xingyuan flat on the ground.

At this time, you must not move drastically.

After laying Xie Xingyuan flat, Cui Shuyan quickly took his pulse and found that his pulse was weak. Cui Shuyan immediately took out gold needles and inserted them into several important acupuncture points in order to protect Xie Xingyuan's heart pulse.

Afterwards, she took out a slightly thicker golden needle and stabbed Xie Xingyuan's palm and fingertips, squeezing out blood as quickly as possible.

After a while, when I checked Xie Xingyuan's pulse again, it had calmed down a lot.

Shi Liu was waiting outside. When she heard the noise, she rushed in immediately. Together with Cui Shuyan, she carried Xie Xingyuan to the bed.

After confirming that the pulse was gradually returning to normal, Cui Shuyan lay on Xie Xingyuan's chest and listened for a while. After confirming that he was getting better, Cui Shuyan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She originally thought that Xie Xingyuan would wake up soon, but he didn't make any movement until it was completely dark.

Cui Shuyan couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

She moved closer, lay down beside him, and whispered, "Husband, don't do this, I'm scared."

At this time, what she didn't see was that Xie Xingyuan's lips moved.

Cui Shuyan was completely unaware and continued to call out to Xie Xingyuan: "Husband..."

Cui Shuyan called out one after another.

Finally, she noticed that Xie Xingyuan moved. She turned her head and saw that he had opened his eyes.

Cui Shuyan was overjoyed: "Husband, you finally woke up!"

Xie Xingyuan stared at Cui Shuyan with red eyes: "What you said are all your real experiences, right?"

"Yes. However, no matter how tragic this incident was, it has passed. The past cannot be retrieved, and what is more important is the present. Therefore, you cannot have any problems. Ze'er and I are still counting on you."

Xie Xingyuan nodded heavily: "Don't worry."

As he said this, he hugged Cui Shuyan.

He held her very tightly, not letting up at all, as if he was afraid that if he loosened his grip even a little, Cui Shuyan would fly away.

Cui Shuyan was held so tightly by him that she couldn't breathe. She snorted softly, "Husband, I can't breathe."

Xie Xingyuan finally relaxed a little. He lowered his eyes, looked at the person in his arms, and said in a hoarse voice: "No matter what, I did something wrong. You are right, the past cannot be recalled. What is more important is to live well in the present."

But, I can't get over it.

It wasn't just him who felt bad, he knew very well that Cui Shuyan felt bad too.

What he cared about was that he faked his own death and failed to protect Cui Shuyan and Ze'er's lives when he could have done something.

What she cares about is the people who do these things.

Although she didn't know what Xie Xingyuan was thinking, Cui Shuyan still followed his words and said, "Yes, the most important thing is to live well now. You have a tough battle to fight tomorrow, so you need to get enough rest. In the past, you always held me in your arms while sleeping, but today it's my turn to hold you in my arms while sleeping, okay?"

"Okay." Xie Xingyuan responded with a smile, allowing this eagle-like man to shrink into Cui Shuyan's arms.

Cui Shuyan had to use both hands to hug him. Afterwards, she placed her head next to Xie Xingyuan's and gently patted his back: "Go to sleep."

"Yeah!" Xie Xingyuan nodded and closed his eyes.

However, even though he closed his eyes, he didn't feel sleepy at all.

What flashed through her mind again and again was the scene described by Cui Shuyan of Ze'er and her tragic deaths.

Whenever he thought of this scene, his heart ached and he could hardly control himself.

But, the embrace of a lover is the best tranquilizer. Before long, his thoughts gradually became vague, and then, he knew nothing.

……

Cui Shuyan didn’t know when Xie Xingyuan fell asleep.

When she woke up the next day, there was no one around her.

She hurriedly called Shi Liu over and asked how Xie Xingyuan looked when he left.

She was worried about his health.

Shi Liu recalled and confirmed: "The prince looks good, at least better than yesterday."

Although Cui Shuyan heard what Shi Liu said, she was still a little worried.

After much thought, she decided to go to the palace to wait for news.

After all, no matter what happens, the palace will get the news first.

It just so happened that she could go over and see Princess Heshuo Chang.

Although Princess Heshuo was in better condition yesterday, the Daliang delegation has been very aggressive recently, causing panic in the palace. Cui Shuyan was really afraid that something unexpected would happen again.

Thinking so, after packing up simply, Cui Shuyan got up and went to the palace.

She entered the palace and went straight to the palace of Princess Heshuo Chang.

When she walked over, she saw Princess Heshuo eating bird's nest.

"Shuyan, you've come just in time. Hurry up, the blood swallows we paid tribute to you are of very good quality. I told you to have someone deliver them to you."

Having said that, Princess Heshuo immediately had someone serve Cui Shuyan a bowl of bird's nest.

Seeing that Princess Heshuo was still in the mood to eat bird's nest, Cui Shuyan guessed that she was in a good mood. She took the bird's nest brought by the palace maid with a smile, took a bite, and found it tasted good.

After putting down the glass cup containing the bird's nest, Cui Shuyan took Princess Heshuo's pulse and only then did she feel relieved.

"Are you afraid that I might become depressed again?"

Cui Shuyan smiled and said, "Of course not. How could our noble Princess be so unhappy?"

"Yes, what is there to be upset about in this world? It's just a matter of building a path through the mountains and a bridge over the water. No matter which direction the wind blows, I will remain unmoved."

Cui Shuyan asked with a smile: "Why, someone is here to make trouble again?"

"Yes. How can anyone sit still when it comes to life and death? Concubine De was already under house arrest yesterday, but there were too many people who had the same idea as Concubine De, and she couldn't be stopped."

Cui Shuyan looked around, approached Princess Heshuo, and said in a low voice: "If things go well, no one will bother you after today."

Hearing this, Princess Heshuo's eyes lit up: "You mean..."

To prevent anyone from eavesdropping, Princess Heshuo did not say the rest of the words.

But Cui Shuyan knew what was not said.

She smiled and nodded to Princess Heshuo: "Yes, you are right."

"Ah!" Princess Heshuo was so excited that she rushed over and hugged Cui Shuyan.

Not only did he hug her, he also picked up Cui Shuyan from her seat and turned her around in a big circle.

Cui Shuyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Are you so happy that you've gone crazy?"

"Humph, I'm willing to do it even if I'm happy to the point of being silly." As she said this, Princess Heshuo hugged Cui Shuyan and spun around wantonly.

Knowing that she was happy, Cui Shuyan just went with her.

However, as she turned around, Cui Shuyan discovered that there was a person standing at the door of the hall, who looked like he was about to come in, but was a little hesitant.

Cui Shuyan calmed herself down and signaled Princess Heshuo to put her down.

Afterwards, she looked at the person at the door and asked, "Fifth Prince, why are you here now?"
