Reborn, I was pursued by the Prince of the Broken Sleeves
Chapter 7: Using His Power to Protect His Life
The poison he was poisoned with was a unique poison from Huanyue Country, the Heart-Eating Powder.
It's almost a fatal poison.
For the past six years, he has been able to hold on until now only thanks to Wu Xiaowen's personal care and the administration of all kinds of the most precious medicinal herbs.
The Flame Linghua needed to prepare the antidote was searched everywhere but to no avail.
Countless nights, when the poison took effect, the pain was like cutting out the heart and liver, making people want to die.
No matter how strong his will is, this body is already at the end of its strength.
If he can't detoxify himself, he won't live long.
Who would have thought that after searching for a long time, I would find it without any effort.
The medicinal herb in the brocade box in the girl's hand turned out to be the Flame Linghua.
What is the joy of escaping death?
This is probably his mood at the moment.
Ye Mo walked closer quickly, staring at the flaming lotus in the glass cup, and for a moment he even forgot to hide the joy between his eyebrows.
Wu Xiaowen couldn't believe it. He rubbed his eyes exaggeratedly, looked left and right, and said with great joy: "Great, it's really the Flame Diamond Flower."
Su Tinggui was standing far away and couldn't see clearly what was in the brocade box.
Seeing that Prince Qi and Wu Xiaowen both treasured this item as a treasure, he also stretched his neck out of curiosity, wanting to find out what it was.
Unfortunately, the two young masters were so tall that they completely blocked his view.
"So that's the name!"
Su Manman didn't find their reactions funny.
Thinking back to when she first discovered the Flame Diamond Flower, her reaction was even more intense and exaggerated than theirs.
She pursed her lips and smiled, took the brocade box into her arms, avoiding Ye Mo's hand, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Your Highness wants it too?"
Ye Mo was stunned by the question, his face became serious for a moment, and his palms felt empty.
Was she testing his physical condition?
He stared at her coldly without saying a word.
Su Manman closed the brocade box and emphasized seriously, "Your Highness, everything has a first come first served principle. This is a gift from me to Master Wu. Your Highness... no matter how much you like it, I cannot force you to take it!"
Ye Mo: “…”
Wu Xiaowen: “…”
When Su Tinggui heard this, he kept winking at Su Manman.
Wicked girl, why did you throw away such a good opportunity to curry favor with His Royal Highness Prince Qi and instead stab his lungs?
"How did you get this?"
Ye Mo withdrew his hand, stood with his hands behind his back, and looked down at her condescendingly.
He was a whole head taller than her and had a more imposing aura than her.
Su Manman smiled and said, "My mother's dowry was probably given by my grandfather."
Su Manman's grandfather, General Lin, was banished to the wilderness of Xihe by the emperor. No letter had been sent for several years, so they were not afraid to go and verify it.
"Do you know its value?"
Su Manman was surprised. She opened the brocade box again and examined it carefully. "It looks delicious. Maybe it can be eaten..."
"How can you eat it casually!" Wu Xiaowen was shocked and quickly interrupted to object.
"Maybe it can also be used to make tea..." She glanced at Ye Mo and said weakly, "Maybe it can be used to improve your skin and beautify your skin..."
"It absolutely has no such effect!" Wu Xiaowen was extremely glad that she did not take action.
He rubbed his hands together, solemnly took the small box, and confirmed again and again, "Since this is a gift to me, I will never regret it."
Su Manman was amused by him. "Young Master, your family is large and prosperous, so there must be no shortage of herbs in your house. When I thought of it just now, I was a little hesitant. Now that I see that you are happy, I am very happy."
In this life, the first thing she did after waking up was to find a way to find the antidote and save her mother.
During the six years in Jiang Yang, the Su family ignored her and she had actually run away long ago.
She secretly crossed the border, went to Huanyue Country, passed through the maze forest, and according to what her master in her previous life said, she found the rare Flame Lotus in advance.
What is even more gratifying is that based on the results of their many years of research, she has cultivated many plants of Flame-shaped Water Lily.
In her previous life, Tao Hong once whispered in her ear that Master Wu was eager to find the Flame Linghua.
After returning to the capital, she used this as bait to lure Wu Xiaowen to Su's residence, and what happened next was a natural outcome.
"I like it very much..." Wu Xiaowen is a man of temperament. He does not hide his feelings at all, and all of them are reflected on his face.
He hugged the box to his chest and covered it tightly with his wide sleeves. "Thank you, young lady. This is exactly what I like!"
Su Manman smiled, feeling happy, when she suddenly noticed a slightly cold gaze next to her.
She turned around and their eyes met. Su Manman was stunned for a moment, then became annoyed.
Oops!
I forgot to appease the great god in front of me.
Pray to King Yemo...
The biggest relationship between her and him was that he took Su Jiaojiao as his concubine, and after marriage, she would invite Prince Jin to drink from time to time.
The two of them often got drunk late at night, forcing her to get up and make sobering soup herself.
At that time, she was Prince Jin's nominal concubine.
She didn't have much direct contact with him.
However, he is the dream lover of 300 million girls in the Daqian Kingdom.
Taohong admired him very much. When she had nothing to do, she always liked to read notebooks about him. All day long, her little mouth was full of talk about him.
So, she was a stranger to him, yet seemed familiar with everything about him.
Recent events...
She thought about it and her expression suddenly became serious.
In the second month of the spring of the twenty-third year of the Daqian Kingdom, Prince Qi Yemo was assassinated in the suburbs. A hidden arrow pierced his heart, leaving him seriously injured. He became seriously ill the following year...
Su Manman's heart sank.
Today is the tenth day of February.
This means that within these twenty days, he will encounter an unexpected assassination attempt.
After this assassination attempt, his health deteriorated, and he went from being the war god hero of the Great Qian Kingdom to a sickly person who needed to take medicine every day...
The person in front of me is a hero of the Daqian Kingdom, but he has a rough fate and is a miserable person.
Su Manman looked at him and her eyes softened.
If he had not been here today, Lord Cao might have shown favoritism, Su Tinggui would not have swallowed his anger and admitted his mistake, and Concubine Liu would not have been suppressed so easily.
On the first day she returned home, if he hadn't been there, the victory wouldn't have gone as smoothly as she wanted with Wu Xiaowen alone.
She took advantage of his power to bully others.
I'm afraid I'll have to trouble him again in the future...
Su Manman hesitated for a moment, then pulled out a palm-sized mirror from her sleeve and handed it forward, "This is for His Highness."
The antique bronze mirror is round, with intricate patterns coiled around the raised outer ring and a human face clearly visible on the concave side.
This is an ordinary mirror.
But it is not ordinary.
"Girl." Taohong's eyes turned red with anxiety.
"Girl, no!" Qingluan also spoke out to stop her.
This heart-protecting mirror is a life-saving item for girls.
Su Manman reached out to stop the maid from interrupting and said with a faint smile, "Your Highness, this bronze mirror was given to you by a master from the temple. It can be used to dress properly on weekdays, and in times of crisis, it can protect your heart."
Ye Mo: "..." Will he be missing a heart-protection mirror?
Wu Xiaowen: "..." He was about to die of laughter. Who could hurt His Royal Highness Prince Qi's heart?
Su Tinggui: “…” He was so embarrassed.
Would the dignified Prince Qi care about a heart-protecting mirror that can be seen everywhere on the battlefield?
What's going on in this girl's mind?
Several people's eyes fell on His Royal Highness Prince Qi, wondering how he would react.
