Making you a son-in-law is not about making you conquer the world.

"What if we take all five pills out at the same time?"

Lin Ping said excitedly, naturally he had come up with a good idea.

"Take them out at the same time?"

Lin Xiaomei muttered to herself, clearly thinking it was unlikely.

The Lotus Palace disciples had been poisoned from the day they entered the palace. More than ten years later, these pills had long been scattered in different corners of their bodies. How could they all be gathered together?

"Little Li, quickly bring me my silver needles!" Lin Ping said anxiously as Jiang Yunying's breath grew weaker and weaker.

Jiang Yunying had lost the strength to kneel on the ground and almost collapsed, but fortunately Lin Ping pulled her into his arms.

To save time, Lin Ping didn't even carry Jiang Yunying into the boudoir, and performed the surgery right there on the spot.

Li Mingxuan moved with lightning speed, immediately handing the silver needles and the sharp knife to Lin Ping, living up to his reputation as a loyal follower.

Lin Ping finally activated Jiang Yunying's right eye, allowing him to see the structure inside her body. The five pills were indeed scattered in different locations. Fortunately, they were flowing with the blood, just as Lin Xiaomei had said, hidden within her meridians.

To remove the pill, a blood vessel had to be cut. Although the wound was small, it could still leave a scar. Therefore, Lin Ping set his sights on the center of Jiang Yunying's beautiful back and neck.

Since backless dresses were rarely worn in ancient times, even a small scar here wouldn't affect one's appearance. Furthermore, the area has a high blood flow, making it easy to gather the five pills together.

Seeing that Lin Ping had torn a corner off Jiang Yunying's dress from the back, Pang Xingji hurriedly ordered the guards to retreat, as they couldn't let these rough men see her beautiful back.

Looking at Jiang Yunying's jade-like skin, Lin Ping swallowed hard, then, after calming himself, inserted a silver needle into the center of her vein.

After the silver needles are inserted, the blood can continue to flow, but the pills cannot pass through.

Before long, the glowing blue pill was the first to be blocked by the silver needle.

This was the very pill representing the water element, and also the one that poisoned Jiang Yunying.

Lin Ping wished he could take out the pill immediately, but he was also afraid that the fire-attribute pill would cause trouble.

What follows is a long waiting process.

Although the human body's blood can circulate once every three minutes, this does not mean that the pill can travel through all blood vessels; it may very well circulate indefinitely in a specific place.

It would take a lot of time to gather all the pills together; even with good luck, it would take at least an hour.

"Husband, I'm cold..." As the poisoning from the water continued to flare up, Jiang Yunying's hands and feet were ice-cold, and she kept shivering.

Lin Ping carefully held Jiang Yunying in his arms, wishing he could give her all his body heat.

He had intended to tell her some jokes to warm her up, but he was afraid it would have the opposite effect, since Jiang Yunying didn't understand jokes and might be annoyed.

"Little Li, bring the braziers, the more the better!" Lin Ping continued to command.

It is now late spring, and the weather is gradually warming up. Although the nights are a bit damp and chilly, the brazier has been removed early.

Li Mingxuan was at a loss for what to do, and hurriedly led Da Shuang and the others to search for a brazier in the city lord's mansion.

Seeing Jiang Yunying's body growing colder and colder, Lin Ping didn't have time to wait any longer and shouted, "Brother Pang, bring the oil from the kitchen!"

Not to mention that finding a brazier is difficult, even if a brazier were placed in front of us, we might not be able to use it much.

After all, the brazier contained burning charcoal, with only faint flames; you could only feel some heat by placing your hands next to it.

"Is it a lot?" Pang Xingji carried a full bucket of rapeseed oil out of the kitchen and looked at Lin Ping with a puzzled expression.

"They all collapsed around me and the princess," Lin Ping continued, holding Jiang Yunying even tighter, bending her waist so as not to let a single gust of cold wind penetrate her body.

Pang Xingji trusted Lin Ping's medical skills and hurriedly poured rapeseed oil around the two of them in a circle.

"Light the oil!" Lin Ping said, disregarding everything else, making a startling statement.

Pang Xingji was immediately at a loss. He hadn't expected Lin Ping to issue such an order. If he had known this would happen, he would have at least drawn the circle bigger. If the oil were really ignited, it could very well have the effect of "cremation".

However, Lin Ping's expression left no room for doubt. Pang Xingji lit the rapeseed oil with a puzzled look, and it immediately burst into flames.

Lin Ping, inside the ring of fire, immediately felt a wave of heat, and the moisture on his skin was rapidly draining away, putting him at risk of exploding at any moment.

Even Pang Xingji and the others outside the circle of fire couldn't withstand the heat of the flames and unconsciously took a few steps back.

"Brother!" Lin Xiaomei called out worriedly, mistakenly thinking that Lin Ping was going to commit suicide with Jiang Yunying.

“This lecherous scoundrel…” Xia Linglong stared blankly at Lin Ping, clearly having developed a different attitude.

Previously, she disliked Lin Ping to the core, but later she gradually discovered some of his good points. Now, seeing his persistence in love, she even felt admiration for him.

"Don't come any closer!" Lin Ping shouted, his skin turning red, and his silk clothes began to smell of burning.

"Husband, why are you doing this?" Jiang Yunying stared at Lin Ping with her beautiful eyes, feeling for the first time how warm and reliable a man's embrace was.

Under the warmth of the flames, Jiang Yunying felt much better. She wanted to push Lin Ping away, but she couldn't bear to give up the warmth.

Lin Ping remained silent, focusing intently on the changes within Jiang Yunying's body. Currently, the fire-attribute pill had been intercepted, and the earth-attribute pill was on its way to being intercepted as well.

However, the other two pills are still wandering around, and it is unknown when they will be captured.

Although the raging fire temporarily suppressed the water poison, the two could be burned alive if this continued.

"Why is it water poison and not fire poison?" Lin Ping said helplessly.

Different toxins have different effects. Water poisoning will make Jiang Yunying's body cold, her vital signs will drop to the lowest level, and even her heartbeat will slow down. As a result, the blood circulation cycle will be greatly prolonged.

If it were fire poison, Jiang Yunying's heart rate would increase dramatically, and she might have already captured all five pills.

"My wife, I'm sorry!" Lin Ping said casually, then kissed Jiang Yunying's thin lips forcefully.

Although Jiang Yunying had kissed Lin Ping on her own initiative before, she had never been forcibly kissed. This feeling of being pinned to the bed was simply... too exciting!

Jiang Yunying's eyes widened, and she instinctively pushed Lin Ping, only to find that she had no strength at all, and her cold heart began to pound violently.

There's nothing shameful about kissing between husband and wife, but it's always a little embarrassing to be stared at by dozens of eyes, especially when those eyes include parents and a younger brother who is underage.

Jiang Yunying's pretty face flushed red, her whole body felt swollen, and her heart was beating faster and faster.

Women are always like this; shyness turns into happiness. Just as Jiang Yunying was about to close her eyes and enjoy it, Lin Ping left without any hesitation, even shouting, "It's done! It's finally done!"
