Rebirth of a Concubine's Daughter

Only after the door closed did Shen Nanyan relax, stroking her shoulders and leaning back gently.

It's not difficult to go back, but my feet can't touch the ground right now, and I can't fly out of this room on a plane. Shen Nanyan pressed the swollen area with her fingers, thinking about giving it an injection.

How to leave?

Feeling cold all over, Wu You sat down on the edge of the bed.

"I'm afraid I can't leave for now. Give me an injection. Let the swelling go down a bit and then we can go."

If I could reach you, I could carry you out.

"It's okay. Sheng Weize said to starve me for three days, so I'll be safe within those three days. I'll give him an injection now and apply cold compress overnight, and we'll be able to leave in two days."

[This is the only way. By the way, I'll send a message to Lu Jiusi.]

An iron box appeared in Wu You's palm. When the box was opened, a row of silver needles lay neatly inside.

"No need. We'll be out in two days. It's not worth it for them to go deep into enemy territory just to save me. I'm not a royal descendant. I'm not that important. Hiss... it hurts. Be gentle..."

Wu You's hand could not touch Shen Nanyan's body at all, but the needle in her hand could actually penetrate the flesh. However, the needle became a little illusory in Wu You's hand, as if it was coated with a layer of halo.

[After the injection, I'll spray you with some medicine to help reduce the swelling faster. How's your shoulder injury?]

"I don't know. It hurts."

After treating the foot injury, Shen Nanyan tore open her clothes. Wu You checked the wound, frowned, and looked unhappy.

I don't know how perfunctory the doctors here are. They didn't even clean the wound, just sprinkled some medicine powder on it. Just bear with it, I'll take care of it for you. Otherwise, the wound will fester in three days.

"It's good enough that I can get the medicine."

At night, Wu You stayed in the house, so Shen Nanyan could sleep peacefully. However, when it was almost dawn, Shen Nanyan was awakened by the heat. It should have been colder with Wu You by her side, but the wound made her whole body hot and her underwear was soaked.

[Don't be afraid, you just have a fever. It's too late to get an IV drip. I'll give you an injection.]

Shen Nanyan's head seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. She didn't want to say a word and let Wu You prick her with needles. Her pale face was wrinkled and her thin body was curled up on the bed.

Afterwards, he knew nothing and fell into a deep sleep. Wu You left just before the maid outside the door came in. The maid naturally reported Shen Nanyan's condition to Sheng Weize. However, within a cup of tea, Sheng Weize and the doctor rushed over.

"Doctor Wei, please take a look at this beautiful lady and only use the best medicine."

"Yes, Your Highness."

The female doctor was already middle-aged. She lowered her eyes and looked very calm. She didn't say much, but her mind was very insightful. After taking Shen Nanyan's pulse and prescribing medicine, she wanted to check the wound, but Shen Nanyan refused by pulling her clothes.

The medicine on his wound had been replaced by Wu You. If the female doctor found out, Sheng Weize would also know about it. Wouldn't he suspect that someone in this mansion was helping him? Then his situation would become even more difficult. As long as his foot injury got better, Shen Nanyue would not delay for a moment and would leave immediately, so it was better to have less trouble than more.

"How can your fever go away if you don't let the doctor take a look at your wound? Be good, I won't let anyone starve you. Have someone bring you whatever you want to eat. Your wound is more important."

Sheng Weize changed his vicious attitude from last night and tried to comfort Shen Nanyan softly, as if he was coaxing his little wife, which made Shen Nanyan feel sick.

"I know my own injuries, no one else needs to worry about them."

"You are so willful. When will your injury heal? Are you trying to use your injury as an excuse to shirk responsibility?"

Sheng Weize sat down on the edge of the bed as he spoke, reaching out to pull Shen Nanyan's hand. Shen Nanyan immediately withdrew her hand and reached into the quilt. The next second, the muzzle of the gun was against Sheng Weize's thigh.

"Take your dirty hands off me."

"Naughty, I like her. She is much more interesting than the women in this mansion."

Even if such a pretty beauty was angry, Sheng Weize just thought she was throwing a tantrum and didn't take it to heart. Instead of pulling Shen Nanyan's little hand, Sheng Weize became even more presumptuous and bent down to touch Shen Nanyan's face. But the next second, the guard who followed him and was standing at the door suddenly fell to the ground, which startled him.

Shen Nanyan could have shot Sheng Weize to death, but that would have made things worse and she would not have been able to leave, so she pointed her gun at the guard at the door. The guard did not die on the spot, but was injured in the thigh. The wound was located exactly where Sheng Weize was pointed by the gun. Now Sheng Weize had to re-examine the woman in front of him.

"what is this?"

"stay away from me."

Knowing the power of the weapon in Shen Nanyan's hand, Sheng Weize didn't dare to do anything rash. He stood up with a smile and walked to the table to sit down.

"Are you satisfied with this distance, my beauty?"

"I just can't walk because of my foot injury, otherwise you can't stop me."

"It seems so, but wouldn't it be better for you to stay and become the Queen Mother, second only to the Emperor and above all others?"

Hearing this, Shen Nanyan smiled. The smile on her pale little face was very wanton. Her bright eyes flashed with a cold gaze. She looked weak, yet arrogant. She was truly a rare beauty in the world.

"Let me remind you that Xuansu Kingdom just lost six cities."

"So what? Xuansu Kingdom still exists."

"boom!"

As soon as Sheng Yize finished speaking, the Baoyue vase on the corner cabinet behind him shattered. The sound of the fine porcelain falling to the ground alarmed the guards outside. Sheng Yize raised his hand and the guards retreated.

"Only six cities, that's really too few. How many cities does your Xuansu Kingdom have? Can you capture them all within a year?"

According to the previous speed, one year would definitely be more than enough. Shen Nanyan was not joking with Sheng Weize.

"If Nan Ling really devours me, Xuan Su, it will definitely cause chaos in the world. At that time, several countries will encircle and suppress me..."

"Then take them all, so what?"

Shen Nanyan looked at the gun in her hand, without a trace of fear on her face. After all, she had the capital to do so.

Sheng Weize felt a chill on his back. Although he didn't know what weapon Shen Nanyan was holding, based on the previous battle report and what was in Shen Nanyan's hand, he could tell that she was definitely not bragging.

"My beauty's injuries haven't healed yet, so there's no rush to leave. First, take good care of yourself. Once you're able to get out of bed, I'll take you back safely. How's that?"

"Very good."

Although Sheng Weize agreed verbally, Shen Nanyan did not believe him. Xuan Suren was born cunning, so one must be on guard against others.

Sure enough, after Sheng Weize left, the maid brought food, but the food was filled with added ingredients. However, Shen Nanyan did not expose it and picked up the chopsticks to taste each dish.

The poison is not fatal, it just makes people weak and powerless. It should be to prevent himself from escaping. But in Shen Nanyan's view, this poison is nothing, and it can be cured with just one pill.
