The Virgin Mary in the Book: I Decide My Life with Two Swords

Cang Yue Kingdom - Nanlai - Posthouse

Xue Jingchuan may be the only person that Ye Ling trusts a little more in this world right now. She knows that he is close to fighting for Ye Ting, and he also admits it openly, which is very interesting.

Just as Ye Ling was drinking porridge, Nangong Chen stood quietly outside her door. He listened to the two people talking and laughing in the room, feeling uncomfortable, but he also knew that he really looked down on Ye Ling at the beginning, but he gradually changed later. Xue Jingchuan, on the other hand, respected Ye Ling from the beginning. This was also the difference between them. After thinking for a long time, he turned around and left silently.

Ye Ling finished his porridge and continued to lie down: "You are seriously injured, go and rest!"

"I'm a grown man, this injury is nothing. This is your first injury, so you should rest well. It must be painful, right?" Xue Jingchuan asked.

"It hurts a lot, it hurts so much," Ye Ling said as he gently touched his shoulder with his hand.

"Don't move. Don't touch the wound frequently. It won't hurt. It will hurt for at least ten days. You must be obedient and take medicine and change the dressing on time. Don't let the wound get inflamed. You must eat a light diet. Do you understand? Forget it, you don't understand. I will take care of everything for you in the next few days. Don't find me annoying." Xue Jingchuan asked himself and answered.

"Ten days? Jingchuan, how long will it take for my wound to heal? I have to go to Langya Bang to challenge a master on the tenth day of the first lunar month." This is what Ye Ling was worried about.

"Five days later? Auntie, what are you thinking? Don't worry, the prince has already announced that you have saved his life, but you were also seriously injured and are recovering in the inn."

"Will the Nirvana in Fire challenge be postponed because of this?"

"No, Nirvana in Fire doesn't care about that."

"Then I still have to go. I'd rather lose the fight than the battle. I can't let those stinky men think that I'm a coward and don't dare to go," Ye Ling said.

Xue Jingchuan knew Ye Ling's personality: "Okay, then you must be obedient and rest well these few days. It should be no problem to fight one person when the time comes."

"Reliable, then I'll go to sleep, you go and rest!" Ye Ling closed his eyes.

"If you have any problems, just shout. There are two girls guarding the door outside," Xue Jingchuan said before leaving.

When Ye Ling heard the person walking away, he immediately entered the space, lay down on the operating table, and started to receive Western medicine.

"Master, these are the best medicines for anti-inflammatory and analgesic purposes!" Mengmeng was busy flying around.

"You keep your eyes open outside. If someone comes, remind me to get out immediately," Ye Ling said.

"Master, don't worry. Mengmeng understands. You can rest in peace. Even if you fall asleep, Mengmeng will take you out after the liquid is finished."

"Thank you, Mengmeng." Ye Ling closed her eyes peacefully, and suddenly a question came to her mind: "Mengmeng, didn't you say that you lose consciousness when I fall asleep?"

"That was in the past. Now the master has filled the space up. Mengmeng is well fed and well-drinking, so her abilities have naturally been upgraded! She won't fall into a coma with the master anymore." Mengmeng was very happy to see this. As an elf, its only wish was to be able to help its master.

"There is such a thing! It's interesting, I like it, then I'll go to sleep." Ye Ling was also happy, so that in the future when he went into the space to sleep, he wouldn't be afraid of someone coming and not knowing about it.

"Master, sleep peacefully." Meng Meng landed on Ye Ling's belly, tilted her little head, and watched the drops of liquid.

Xue Jingchuan left Ye Ling's room and went directly to Nangong Chen's room: "How is it?"

"Last night, I ordered the streets to be closed and all four gates shut for today. Choi Seung-cheol must be apprehended. An urgent message has been sent to the capital over 800 miles away. The entire Lu and Jiang families must be executed, and the Jiang family's entire clan must also be executed."

“You don’t look very happy.”

"When we were fighting last night, my brother sent someone to destroy all evidence of his dealings with Jiang Bing."

"Your Majesty will surely think that this incident was instigated by the Crown Prince. Does it matter whether there is evidence or not?"

Nangong Chen was silent for a long time: "You are right, even if there is evidence, my father will not depose the prince. After all, I am still alive."

"Don't say that! By the way, how did Lu Xun escape?"

"The yamen runners received the signal and most of them rushed to the Jiang Mansion. My brother's men rescued him. Their purpose was definitely to cooperate with Jiang Bing and put me to death. The only thing they miscalculated was Ye Ling's mishap. She told you in advance, so you had time to gather the people from Nanlai Anzhuang. She also notified Zhang Chong before Jiang Bing's men arrived at the post station. Zhang Chong prepared in advance and successfully counterattacked before rushing to rescue me. Also, Ye Ling brought people to support us. Without her support, we probably wouldn't have been able to hold out until the imperial guards arrived."

"Yes, it was mainly because of that old guy Jiang Bing who suppressed us with his feather arrows. In addition, they had hundreds of people, while we only had a few. However, the manpower of this Youminglang should not be underestimated! There are only about twenty of them, but they are all masters. Without them, it would be hard to say."

"Have you asked Ye Ling? Why did You Ming Lang lend her someone?"

"She refused to say, but I can guess that the feud between Guiren Pavilion and Jiang Bing has been going on for a long time. I guess Ye Ling must have heard about it, so she asked Youminglang to borrow people. Youminglang also took the opportunity to destroy the Jiang family and saved you, the King of Beichen. He only benefits and has no disadvantages," Xue Jingchuan analyzed.

"Have you seen her injuries?"

"The doctor checked for coma. I took a look and it was similar to yours, but she actually sutured the wound herself. This girl is so cruel. I'm scared." Xue Jingchuan admired Ye Ling's courage from the bottom of his heart.

"How many injuries?"

"Two. One on her arm was scratched. Both were caused by Jiang Bing's arrow. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to bear the injury. Isn't it the same for you?"

"I'm used to getting hurt, it doesn't matter"

"It doesn't matter. Aren't you a human? Everyone feels pain, and I feel pain too, but it's just not as serious as you two. Oh, and she's going to accept the challenge on the tenth day of the lunar month. I want you to do something about it. It would be bad if the wound opens in five days."

"Langya Pavilion has always been fair, just and open. This king...is not able to operate well."

"We'll see then. Let's see who accepts the challenge first. Anyway, She Zhao can't come, and our people have already been confirmed." Xue Jingchuan said, and suddenly an idea flashed: "That's right! What do you think? Let Xiao Yeling kill Cui Shengche directly. Can she take the eighth place on the Langya List?"

"If she doesn't really fight, she will lose badly if someone challenges her later. But... it's not impossible. We have to let Xuan Lei find Choi Seungcheol quickly," said Nangong Chen.

"Your Highness," Xuan Lei trotted in, "Langya Pavilion Master Mu Xia is here. They've captured Choi Seung Cheol and brought him here."

"Well, it's all in vain," Xue Jingchuan smiled bitterly.

Nangong Chen nodded slightly, and Xuan Lei bowed and left.

Soon, Mu Xia entered the room and kowtowed, "Greetings to His Majesty the King of Beichen."

"Master Mu, please stand up and sit down to talk."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Mu Xia stood up and bowed to Xue Jingchuan as a courtesy.

"Master Mu captured Choi Seung-cheol?" Xue Jingchuan asked.

"Yes, the prince issued a ban on the streets. He was seriously injured and had nowhere to escape, so he came to the Langya List branch. My Langya Pavilion has always been fair and naturally would not harbor any evil intentions. So we sent him here and asked Your Highness to deal with him as you wish. From now on, the eighth place on the Langya List is vacant," Mu Xia said slowly.

"This king thanks Master Mu."

"Your Highness, you are too polite. Your Highness, Ye Ling has been listed on the Langya List. I heard that she was seriously injured last night. I wonder if she can fight in five days." Mu Xia asked. This was the purpose of his coming today, just to see if Ye Ling was in danger of her life. Sending Choi Seungcheol away was just an excuse.

"Ye Ling's scapula was pierced by a feather arrow and he is now in a coma. It will be unknown how he will perform in five days," said Nangong Chen.

Mucha was obviously nervous: "She...she's not in danger of life, right?"

Xue Jingchuan seemed to be thinking, "Don't worry, Hall Master Mu, your life is not in danger. But if we have to fight in five days, I'm afraid the wound will split. If we meet a strong opponent, it will be even more difficult to say."

Mu Xia finally felt relieved: "The person who will fight in five days will be mediocre in martial arts. Ye Ling will be able to defeat him without any effort. Please tell her to rest and recuperate."

"Okay, I'll thank Hall Master Mu on behalf of Ye Ling." Xue Jingchuan bowed slightly.

Mu Xia nodded and stood up: "Your Highness, I will take my leave now. I will not disturb you while you recover from your injuries."

"Xuan Lei, send off Master Mu."

"Yes," Xuan Lei responded, "Master Mu, please."

After Mu Xia left, Xue Jingchuan immediately spoke up: "He came to see Ye Ling. Am I right?"

"Care leads to confusion. Let someone investigate this Hall Master Mu immediately. Maybe he is the person we are looking for." Nangong Chen was inexplicably excited.

"Should I tell Ye Ling?"

"Tell me what?" Ye Ling walked in. After taking the anti-inflammatory medicine, she couldn't sleep, so she got up.

"Oh!" Xue Jingchuan quickly stood up, and the two of them helped him sit down: "Who told you to run around?"

"Please, my injured shoulder is not my leg. Why can't I walk? Besides, look at the prince, isn't he lying down?" Ye Ling retorted.

"Okay, okay, you are right," Xue Jingchuan said with a smile.

"What did you want to tell me just now?" Ye Ling asked curiously.

"Oh, Hall Master Mu Xiamu is here. He has captured Choi Seungcheol and said that the person you will be sparring with in five days will have mediocre martial arts skills, so you can focus on recuperating." Xue Jingchuan said this while staring at Ye Ling intently, wanting to know her first reaction.

"Uncle Mu is really decisive. He didn't give me a chance. I was thinking of killing Choi Seungcheol and taking his place. Now it's all in vain," Ye Ling muttered.

Xue Jingchuan and Nangong Chen looked at each other, and one could imagine the joy in their hearts.

Xue Jingchuan asked, "Uncle Mu? You call him Uncle Mu?"

"He is already in his forties. Do you want me to call him brother? Or grandpa?" Ye Ling hadn't reacted yet.

"Is grandpa behaving like this? Hello, Uncle Mu," Xue Jingchuan said.

Ye Ling looked at Nangong Chen: "Your Majesty, does this count as a meritorious service in saving the Emperor?"

"Calculate"

"Then...how much money will you give me for saving the prince?" Ye Ling looked innocent.

"Puff..." Xue Jingchuan spat out a mouthful of tea, staring at Nangong Chen with a look of watching a show, and laughing heartlessly.

Nangong Chen suddenly felt a stomachache: "Ye Ling, besides money, what else do you care about?"

"There's also gold, jewelry, and silver notes. They're easy to carry, and you can exchange them at a silver shop when you need them. I'm not picky," Ye Ling answered seriously.

Nangong Chen covered his wound and suddenly felt very painful. It was definitely because Ye Ling was angry.

Xuan Lei, who never smiled, couldn't hold back his laughter any longer: "Miss Ye, you should take good care of your injuries!"

"Hehe..." Xue Jingchuan couldn't stop at all.
