Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Huo Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief after Chu Xiaohe left.

Chu Lingshan followed her out and returned after a while.

"They've already returned to their own camp."

Huo Qing let out another breath, feeling truly miserable.

Where is Li'er?

“The Seventh Princess is in my tent.” Chu Lingshan glanced at her and said, “Madam, I’ll take you there.”

The figure that Chu Xiaohe saw tonight was indeed Tuoba Liuli.

In general, to reduce the chances of her identity being exposed, Tuoba Liuli would stay in the camp and rarely come out.

The reason she came out tonight was because the poison in her body had started to stir again, and her body felt like it was being burned by fire, making it difficult for her to sleep.

It was windy and cold outside, but she just wanted to go for a walk and let the cold wind blow on her to see if it would reduce the burning sensation on her body.

Unexpectedly, Chu Xiaohe saw him by accident.

When Chu Lingshan took Huo Qing to find Tuoba Liuli, Tuoba Liuli was still hiding in Chu Lingshan's tent, clutching the corner of a low table, biting her lip hard, trying to suppress the burning pain.

Upon seeing the two enter, her first question was, "So? Does Xiao He believe it now?"

But she was in a lot of pain, and when she opened her mouth, she couldn't help but groan softly.

Huo Qing looked at her bitten lip. Although she was wearing a veil, blood had already seeped through it, showing how big the wound was.

Huo Qing felt a pang of heartache: "He didn't suspect anything and went back to rest, but you..."

Huo Qing walked over, took her hand, and felt its burning heat. She asked anxiously, "Li'er, why is your hand so hot? Are you sick?"

Tuoba Liuli shook her head.

"My body... the poison is acting up, my body is burning up."

Huo Qing felt a lump in her throat.

"This damned poison!"

The poison would flare up from time to time without any pattern, leaving even she and Yuwen Ying helpless.

It's clear that Yuwen Ying really tried her best, but she just couldn't find a solution.

"I'll give you acupuncture to suppress the pain." Huo Qing glanced at Chu Lingshan.

Chu Lingshan nodded: "I'll go and keep watch for you two."

She backed out.

Huo Qing helped Tuoba Liuli lie down on the soft couch and immediately began to administer acupuncture to suppress the Gu poison.

With great difficulty, the burning sensation on Tuoba Liuli's body finally subsided a little.

But I still feel very uncomfortable.

Huo Qing sighed silently: "If this continues, before the poison even takes effect and you die, your body will already be in terrible shape."

Tuoba Liuli's body was too fragile. The pain from each attack of the Gu poison made her pulse weaker and weaker, as if it would break at any moment.

In just a few days, she has become noticeably thinner. How can she possibly keep going like this?

"Li'er, why don't you go and see Xiao He?"

"Is my third aunt afraid that I won't be able to bear it and that I won't be able to be with him properly until I die?"

"Li'er!" Huo Qing frowned. How could she say such an ominous thing? What if... what if it really was...

Huo Qing's brows furrowed more and more, and she couldn't help but curse herself a couple of times.

You can't even think about such things.

"Li'er, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to save you. Besides, Ali might be back soon. Once she comes back, she will definitely find a way to cure you!"

Ali is like a pillar of strength for everyone.

As long as Ali is there, all difficulties can be overcome!
