Traveling through the Poisonous Concubine

"Sister Yuelan, the river water is icy cold! Let me do the rough work of washing clothes. Oh, by the way, when I was out hunting just now, I saw those wintersweets blooming particularly beautifully, and I thought you would definitely like them, so I picked some and brought them back for you." Fu Zhenwu said with a smile on his face, his eyes full of expectation and tenderness.

However, Yuelan seemed very polite and distant: "Brother Fu, you are so polite! I will finish washing the clothes soon. You can just leave these plum blossoms by the river first. I will take them home after I finish the things at hand. Thank you so much, Brother Fu!" Although her tone was polite, it obviously carried a hint of indifference, which made Fu Zhenwu feel a little uneasy.

At this moment, Yuelan was absent-mindedly rubbing the clothes, secretly complaining about the guy named Lingyi in her heart. In fact, she had long noticed the special feelings that Fu Zhenwu had for her, but her heart had already been occupied by another person - that person was Lingyi, who was as unromantic as a piece of wood. Thinking of this, Yuelan couldn't help but sigh softly.

Hearing Yuelan's sigh, Fu Zhenwu immediately asked with concern: "Sister Yuelan, why are you sighing? Are you troubled by something? If you don't mind, you can tell me about it. As long as I can help, I will do my best to help you!" His expression was sincere and earnest when he spoke, making it impossible to refuse.

At this moment, Yuelan, who was a little dazed, suddenly slipped and lost her balance, and was about to fall into the cold river. Fu Zhenwu was shocked and his face turned pale as paper. He rushed forward without hesitation, quickly stretched out his arms, tightly hugged Yuelan's slender waist, and jumped with a powerful force, landing steadily on the river bank.

This thrilling scene happened to be seen by Lingyi who rushed over...

"Fu Zhenwu! You despicable guy! Let Yuelan go!" Ling Yi was full of anger and shouted angrily. At the same time, his figure flashed and he soared into the air like a bird. Then he did a beautiful somersault and pounced on Fu Zhenwu at lightning speed.

In a flash, Lingyi stretched out his hand like lightning and slapped Fu Zhenwu's chest fiercely. In an instant, a powerful force surged out, and Fu Zhenwu retreated like a kite with a broken string, and finally fell heavily to the ground. At the same time, a trace of scarlet blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Seeing this scene, Yue Lan was suddenly shocked and shouted anxiously: "Lingyi, what are you doing? Why are you so cruel to do such a thing to my brother! Are you crazy?" As she spoke, she hurriedly stepped forward, supported Fu Zhenwu, who was trembling slightly, and asked worriedly: "Brother Fu, are you okay? Are you hurt? Lingyi is really too much. He attacked you for no reason and was so cruel!" Before she finished speaking, Yue Lan hurriedly took out a snow-white handkerchief from her arms and carefully wiped the blood from the corner of Fu Zhenwu's mouth.

"Sister Yuelan, I'm really fine!" Fu Zhenwu stared at Yuelan's anxious and worried eyes, and his heart seemed to be overwhelmed by a sweet warmth. However, when he caught a glimpse of Lingyi's eyes that were like blazing flames, he instantly became angry.

"Fu Zhenwu, you are such a despicable villain! You clearly know it..."

"What do I know? I just saw the wintersweet flowers blooming so beautifully, so I wanted to pick some for Yuelan.

I have admired Yuelan for a long time, and I came to this river to look for her, so what's wrong with that? "After saying that, Fu Zhenwu pounced on Lingyi like a tiger descending from a mountain.

Lingyi's mind kept replaying the scene of Yuelan gently wiping the corner of Fu Zhenwu's mouth, and his anger became more and more intense, and every move he made was extremely cruel and sharp. For a while, the two of them fought back and forth, and it was difficult to tell who was who.

Yuelan looked at the two people fighting fiercely in front of her, shook her head helplessly, reached out to pick up the clothes that were almost floating away in the river, quickly washed them, picked up the basin and turned to leave.

Upon seeing this, Fu Zhenwu and Lingyi both turned their gazes towards Yue Lan who was walking away. However, after just a brief glance, the fight between them became more and more intense, as if they were determined to decide the outcome with all their might.

Yun Yuxi rushed over and met Yuelan who looked unhappy. Yun Yuxi thought to herself, "Oh no! Seeing Yuelan like this, I'm afraid those two will fight to the death. It's all my fault for being too talkative and speaking too quickly."

"Yuelan, it's cold and we're about to arrive in Kyoto. Don't wash these clothes in the future. You go back to the carriage and warm up. I'll go see them," Yun Yuxi said and left as if escaping.

Yun Yuxi rushed to the river and saw two people fighting. She hid behind a big rock in a playful mood, ready to watch the fun.

"Fu Zhenwu, I'm telling you clearly, Yuelan is mine. Don't even think about taking advantage of her. When I return to Kyoto, I'll go to the princess to ask for her hand in marriage. As the saying goes, a brother's wife should not be bullied. Do you understand?"

"Lingyi! I have always remembered that we have been through thick and thin together, and I really don't want to become your enemy! Besides, I really like Yuelan, so why can't I try hard to win her over? What's more, you two are not officially engaged yet, so of course I have to go all out to pursue her!

When I return to Kyoto, I will definitely ask my parents to go to the princess in person to propose marriage and give betrothal gifts!" The person who spoke was filled with righteous indignation and was justified.

Lingyi was equally unwilling to be outdone and argued, "Hmph! Don't give me that! Are you the only one who is qualified to fight for it? My feelings for Yuelan are no less than yours!"

In that case, let's each fight on our own merits!" The two of them confronted each other, neither giving in, and the fight was fierce for a while.

At this time, Yun Yuxi was hiding quietly behind a huge rock, taking in all of this.

Hearing their heated argument, I couldn't help but laugh out loud, as if I had seen the funniest farce in the world.

"Who's there? Show yourself!" Suddenly, Lingyi and Fu Zhenwu became alert at the same time, turned around quickly, stood back to back, and shouted in unison.

Although they were filled with anger at the moment, they showed amazing tacit understanding when facing potential threats and trusted each other without hesitation.

Yun Yuxi smiled awkwardly and walked out slowly from behind the big rock. She crossed her arms and said with interest:

"Hey! Why don't you fight anymore? Are you tired? You are so useless! I haven't seen enough of the fun, why don't you continue fighting!" After saying that, another burst of silver bell-like laughter rang out.

Faced with Yun Yuxi's ridicule, Lingyi and Fu Zhenwu both looked embarrassed. They stood there blankly, still staring at each other, their eyes full of anger and unwillingness to admit defeat.
