The reborn girl always wants to escape, but the abstinent marquis hugs her and coaxes her!

Chapter 204: No Intimate Contact Between Men and Women

Wai, a girl from southern Xinjiang, finally stopped coughing violently.

She looked up at the three men surrounding her and said, "Each of you has signs of being frozen, and you don't even know it?"

The three of them looked at each other and did not respond.

Wai was a little surprised. She approached Mu Rong carefully, with her head almost touching his arms.

Mu Rong stepped back subconsciously. Wai frowned, "Why are you hiding? Don't you want to know the truth about the Ice Sealed Cave?"

Mu Rong pushed Chu He over and said, "Take a look at him to see if there's anything wrong with him."

Chu He: "..." "Alright, alright..." Wai was somewhat helpless. She moved closer to Chu He, observing him quietly for a moment and said, "Your pulse is actually fine?! But the aura on your body is clearly caused by the ice sealing your acupoints."

Upon hearing this, Chu He pulled up Wei Yi and dragged her into the inner room.

Mu Rong and his servant followed behind.

Wai was about to complain, but the next moment he saw Xu Rongrong lying on the bed, and all his complaints turned into sighs:

"So, someone really has been poisoned by the ice."

She slowly approached the girl on the bed, feeling colder with each step.

Wai stood two feet away from her bed and dared not move anymore.

She turned around slowly.

Under the eager gazes of the three people, he murmured, "This sister is so beautiful!" Everyone: "..."

Chu He had never had much patience. He took two steps forward and grabbed Wai's wrist. "Look, is this the ice-sealed acupoint you mentioned?"

Wai shook his hands and broke free.

She glared at Chu He and said, "I've only heard about it, but I've never actually seen anyone sealed in ice..."

"You!" Chu He was furious.

A feeling of loss crept into the hearts of everyone in the room.

Noticing the solemn atmosphere in the room, Wai curled his lips and said, "Well, I've heard what Daddy said about the symptoms of poisoning. They are very similar to this sister's... Her body is as cold as ice, and her pulse is strong. She will die in a few days from the explosion of her pulse."

"It's just, it's very strange..." Wai muttered softly.

As she described her symptoms, Mu Rong was already impatient. He hurriedly asked, "What's so strange about this?" Wai frowned and said, "In our southern border, it's rare for someone to be poisoned like this. How could this sister, thousands of miles away in the Great Zhou, be poisoned out of nowhere?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Rong knew that Wai was not being mysterious, so he told him the whole story of how Xu Rongrong was frightened by a horse and brought into Lie Mountain when she was in the southern suburbs, and how she behaved abnormally when she was discovered.

Wai was stunned: "So...it really is related to Yu Hong!"

"Yu Hong?" Mu Rong was shocked. "Is it true that she was poisoned because of Yu Hong?"

Wai nodded and looked back at the comatose Xu Rongrong: "Looking at her, I'm afraid she won't survive more than two days."

"Isn't Yuhongcao a miraculous medicine for healing wounds and harmless?" Mu Rong was stunned.

Previously, he also suspected that Xu Rongrong's abnormality was related to Yuhong. After all, when she was found, she was digging Yuhong grass.

But whether it was recorded in the book or Shu Qing's own testing of the medicine, it was enough to prove that the medicine was non-toxic...

But why this little girl?

"You only know one side of the story," Wai said with a smile. "Yuhongcao is indeed a miraculous medicine for treating injuries! But its fame isn't due to its efficacy, but rather its rarity."

"Appreciate further details!"

"This herb grows very slowly. To protect itself, it grows in clusters. Its bright red color is incredibly beautiful, but its beauty also lies in its toxicity. To prevent it from being easily dug up, it releases a freezing poison that seals the acupoints. Whether it's a human or an animal, they will be poisoned and lose their minds without realizing it!"

"The poisoned are like being trapped in ice. If no one discovers them, they will quickly freeze to death. Even if they can survive for ten days, their bodies will eventually explode and die due to the concentration of their meridian energy. Their bodies will merge with the blood-draining grass, and no one will find them. In this way, they also preserve themselves."

"So that's how it is!" They had previously thought the medicine was poisonous, but in fact, the toxicity lies in its growth process. Chu He anxiously pulled Wai over and said, "Is there any way to detoxify it?!"

Wai curled his lips: "You hurt me!"

Chu He quickly let go of her hand: "I'm sorry, I was rude."

Seeing that his attitude was completely different from before, Wai's eyes flashed, as if he had mastered the skill of revenge: "You kidnapped me from the palace and injured the back of my neck. It still hurts!"

Chu He was startled. He glanced at Xu Rongrong, who lay unconscious on the bed, clenched his fists, and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Wai, I was rude."

"It's not me, it's that lecher! Say it again." Wai raised his head.

Chu He: "..."

He could only endure his temper and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Wai, it's my fault for being rude."

"Hmm... that's more like it." Wai narrowed his eyes and smiled. "Could you tell me how to detoxify it?"

Wai put his hands behind his back and stomped around the room twice: "It's so cold in here."

Mu Rong looked at her and said, "Miss Wai, please follow us to the main courtyard."

"All the houses in Da Zhou look the same. They're so monotonous. I don't want to go there." Wai curled his lips.

Mu Rong took a deep breath and glanced at Mu Lu beside him: "Go and clean up the Wuyou Pavilion in the garden, light the charcoal fire, and ask Miss Wei to move over."

"I haven't even had lunch yet, and I was taken out of the palace by Lecher. I'm so hungry!"

"Tell the kitchen to prepare some snacks that the girls like."

"I haven't even eaten the grapes the emperor gave me..." Wai pouted.

"Prepare some honeydew melons for Miss Wai," Mu Rong patiently explained. "Although I don't have the grapes sent as tribute from the palace, honeydew melons from the northern border are also rare."

"Thank you." Wai smiled. He was really handsome and good-tempered. He was nothing like that scoundrel who had a good-looking face but looked like a dead man!

"Please move aside, young lady!" Mu Rong said again.

Wai nodded, but before she took two steps, she staggered and almost fell.

Everyone: "..."

Wai curled his lips and said, "It's all your fault! You sealed my acupuncture points for no reason, and now my legs are numb!"

Seeing this, Mu Rong said in a deep voice, "Young lady, please wait a moment. I will send the sedan chair over."

"I don't want to!" Wai turned around and pointed at Chu He, saying, "I want him to carry me over!"

Chu He: "..."

He looked at Wai coldly: "Young lady, don't you know that men and women should not touch each other?"

"Hey, why didn't you tell me when you brought me here that there's no room for physical contact between men and women?" Wai pouted again. "I don't care! I can't walk anymore!"

Seeing the veins bulging on Chu He's forehead, Mu Rong wanted to rescue him.

But the next moment, he saw Chu He step forward, pick up Wai with all his heart, and fly away from Xinghui Hall.

"Guard Chu...is going to be in trouble." Mu Lu said coldly, "I'm afraid he'll be entangled by this woman from Southern Xinjiang."

Mu Rong said in a deep voice: "Follow!"
