Quick Transmigration: The Villain Always Ends Up with the Male Lead

Chapter 72 His Majesty Regrets His Past Actions (32)

"Miss, what's wrong?" The maid asked worriedly, seeing her mistress's absent-minded expression.

Tang Baiwei: "I'm fine... Go and settle the people who came with that young master."

"Then... what about Young Master Shi Yi inside?"

Tang Baiwei shook her head: "The two people inside can stay together..." After saying this, she left with slightly unsteady steps.

----

Half a month later, Valley Master Tang Yuancan finally returned to the Medicine Valley. The first thing he did upon returning was to find Tang Baiwei and give her a good scolding.

"I've been away from the valley for less than half a month, and you've brought back so many people for me... Tang Baiwei, you've really grown up, haven't you?" Tang Yuancan accused her while tapping her forehead with his finger.

Tang Baiwei took a step back, covering her forehead, which was slightly red from being touched on the ground: "Isn't it said that doctors are benevolent? Besides, nothing has happened, has it?"

"Hmph! Just wait until something really happens, then we'll see how much you regret it!"

Tang Baiwei stepped forward and hugged his arm, pleading, "I know, Dad, I won't do it again. Please go check on that young master who's been poisoned for me!"

Firstly, he couldn't resist his daughter's coquettishness, and secondly, he couldn't bear to stand by and watch someone die. So, Tang Yuancan went to Shi Qi's place with Tang Baiwei.

As soon as the door was pushed open, the two heard Tang Baiwei's voice: "Young masters, I've brought my father!"

By this time, Yi Xuan was able to get out of bed and move around, but Shi Qi's health was deteriorating. Hearing Tang Baiwei's words, Yi Xuan quickly got up and welcomed Tang Yuancan in.

Tang Yuancan looked at Shi Qi, who was lying on the bed with a deathly pale face, and stepped forward without saying a word to pinch Shi Qi's pulse. After a long while, he shook his head.

Seeing Tang Yuanshen shake his head, Yi Xuan's heart leaped into his throat: "Valley Master Tang, is there no cure for this poison?"

Tang Yuancan's expression was solemn: "I have never seen this poison before. It seems to be some kind of poison with the addition of several other extremely cold medicinal herbs. To be honest, I can only suppress this poison, not completely cure it. Since it is a certain death situation anyway, I do not intend to suppress it for him."

Upon hearing this, Yi Xuan trembled and knelt on the ground, then kowtowed deeply to him...

"Mingzhang?!" Shi Qi exclaimed in surprise, trying to get off the bed, but was stopped by Tang Yuancan.

"Young Master Shi, what are you doing? Your leg isn't fully healed yet!" Tang Baiwei asked in surprise.

"Please, Valley Master...save him..." Yi Xuan's voice was filled with deep despair. He couldn't imagine what would happen to him if Shi Qi left.

007 was also shocked by the scene: My God, what a once-in-a-lifetime spectacle! 007 suddenly felt a deep sense of guilt towards him... Actually, it's not such a bad thing that the host can be with him, is it? Perhaps he shouldn't have been so resistant.

Tang Yuancan was also startled and reached out to help Yi Xuan up from the ground: "You should get up first."

But Yi Xuan on the ground wouldn't move, his head still buried deep in the ground: "Please, save him!..."

As the knowledgeable and experienced master of the Medicine Valley, Tang Yuancan could easily see that the relationship between the two was unusual. Seeing that he couldn't pull them apart, he stopped paying attention to Yi Xuan. He looked at Shi Qi and then at Yi Xuan on the ground: "Actually, your identities are not ordinary, are they? And your real names aren't these, are they?"

Upon hearing this, Yi Xuan straightened up, but remained kneeling: "Valley Master guessed correctly. Our identities make it inconvenient to travel, so we used aliases."

Tang Baiwei looked puzzled: So, I'm the only naive person?

Tang Yuancan: "Tell me your original names and identities. I won't feel comfortable treating him if you don't tell me."

Yi Xuan: "The one who has been poisoned is none other than our Regent Prince—Shi Qi, and my name is Yi Xuan..."

Even without him saying it, Tang Yuancan and Tang Baiwei already knew his identity; after all, no one dared to share the same name as the emperor. For a moment, the expressions on the father and daughter's faces were quite interesting. The news that the emperor and the regent were homosexual was a bombshell that most people couldn't digest.

However, after learning the identities of the two, Tang Yuancan's expression softened considerably, and he stepped forward to help Yixuan up: "Why didn't you say so earlier?... Get up first. Our Medical Valley has been secluded for many years, and we don't observe your kneeling rituals."

Seeing that Tang Yuancan seemed to be relenting, Yi Xuan stood up and asked, "Is Valley Master willing to help us?"

“Although we live in seclusion, we are aware of the Regent’s good reputation. We refused before because we were afraid you could not afford the price of the medicine. Now... I will do my best.”

Yi Xuan said sincerely, "Thank you, Valley Master!"

Shi Qi also expressed his gratitude, saying, "Thank you for saving me, Valley Master."

Tang Yuancan nodded: "Then I'll go and make preparations. I'll start treating this Young Master Shi tomorrow... Bai Wei, you can come out too."

Tang Baiwei was young and found it difficult to keep things to herself, so Tang Yuancan instructed her, "Don't spread rumors about these two people. They are people who have made contributions to our dynasty. Don't let others criticize them."

"I understand, Dad. Don't worry, I won't." Tang Baiwei nodded earnestly...

"Why did you kneel down... Does your leg hurt?" Shi Qi pulled Yi Xuan to the bedside and asked.

Yi Xuan saw the heartache in Shi Qi's eyes and shook his head, saying, "It doesn't hurt. As long as the Valley Master can save you, I don't care what happens to me."

----

The next day at noon, just after they had finished their meal, Tang Yuancan arrived with the prepared food.

Tang Yuancan first gave Yi Xuan a heads-up: "Let me make this clear, this is just a method of suppression, which can at most extend his life by three years, and his physical condition will not improve much."

Yi Xuan didn't speak, he just nodded. For them, having three more years was already a great blessing. At least, he still had the chance to spend the rest of his life with Shi Qi.

"Uncle, I will be of age when we return. How about you personally perform the coming-of-age ceremony for me?"

Shi Qi smiled and agreed. Then, Yi Xuan was kicked out of the room by Tang Yuancan on the grounds that he didn't like being disturbed by others.

Yi Xuan sat anxiously on the steps outside, while Tang Baiwei sat beside him to comfort him: "You don't need to worry. Since my father said he can protect him for three years, there won't be any accidents during the treatment."

Upon hearing this, Yi Xuan simply nodded.

After a long while, as darkness fell, Tang Baiwei, who had been waiting with him, stood up and asked, "It's getting late. Shall we go have dinner?"

Yi Xuan shook his head: "No need, thank you Miss Tang, I want to wait for him here."

"Alright, I can't persuade you either." Just as he was about to leave, the door was pushed open from the inside, and Tang Yuancan came out.

"Don't worry, there won't be any problems. You can go in now."

Upon hearing Tang Yuancan's words, Yixuan dragged his injured leg and entered the house as quickly as possible.
