Gu Danyan rubbed his forehead and didn't bother to speak with Duan Chenxuan anymore. He could only wait silently.
The staff of the Hall of Healing quickly went to the medicine house to get some clean clothes for her and a doctor to look after her. Gu Danyan reluctantly changed clothes and fell asleep on the table before she could even wait for the ghost to arrive.
The attendant's eyes fell onto Gu Danyan, and when he saw Duan Chengxuan's gloomy face and the awkwardness on his face, he said, "My prince, this is also a matter of life and death. We don't have enough men, so this is …"
Duan Cheng Xuan glared at him, causing the rest of his words to be stuck in his throat.
He walked over and picked her up. He was very careful and helpless.
The people in his embrace were getting lighter and lighter, as if they were frightened by his actions. Gu Pingyan looked at him for a second before moving his head to find a comfortable position to lean on.
He carried the man back to the nameless courtyard and set him down gently.
Those who should have fallen asleep suddenly opened their eyes. With a smile, they hooked the corners of his clothes with their fingertips. "It was Su Yu Wan who told you that I went to the Sixth Prince's residence today."
"Yes." Duan Chengxuan simply sat on the edge of the bed, and he could see that there was no red tethered cat by her waist. "Why?"
"There's a beginning, and there's always an end." Gu Liuyan smiled bitterly and pulled Duan Chengxuan to his side. She raised her body and whispered into his ear, "If you continue to bully me, then I'll really have no mercy. I'll have plenty of princes, so I won't need you."
Duan Chengxuan's eyes dimmed, as he still wanted to take advantage of the situation and share the bed with her, letting it rain and cloud.
Her face was pale, but her eyes contained a hint of a smile. She had no choice but to restrain the evil fire in her lower abdomen, take off her clothes, and crawl to her side, embracing her, "This King still wants a child."
"Gu Zixian's child will be able to land in the autumn." Gu Liuyan intentionally said this, but he still turned his body and pressed his back against her chest.
"It's not the same." Duan Chengxuan's voice lightly slipped into Gu Tinyan's ears.
"What's the difference? I'm both surnamed Gu. I'm your main wife." Gu Danyan's voice also became softer. He buried himself in the bed, while his eyelids became heavier.
"Go to sleep." Duan Cheng Xuan pulled the blanket on her face down to her chin before tightening her grip.
Gu Liuyan couldn't take it anymore, so she closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
In the dream, the cries of a child could be heard once again. That ball of bloody flesh and blood was taken away by Su Yu Wan, while Gu Cheng's reprimanding voice turned into next to her ear.
She saw Duan Chengye and Duan Chengyu lying in a pool of blood with lifeless eyes. Only Duan Chengxuan was standing in front of her with Su Yuwan in his arms, laughing at her childishness, laughing at her kindness, and laughing at her inability to kill others.
In an instant, a silver light pierced her chest, smashing flesh and blood into her face and eyes.
When she suddenly regained consciousness, the bright light in front of her started to hurt. She sat up and panted heavily. Her back was slightly drenched in cold sweat and her hair was messily stuck to the side of her face.
The man beside her also slowly woke up. He looked at her in a daze and then pressed her down with his two large hands. "What happened?"
Seeing Duan Chengxuan's face overlapping the one in his dreams, he subconsciously took a step back.
Her small actions had awoken Duan Chengxuan from his stupor.
"I won't do anything to you anymore." Duan Chengxuan soberly pulled his back into his embrace. "I'll protect Su Yuwan and you well."
Don't do it again …
However, those cuts had long since landed.
Gu Danyan also woke up a bit and only laughed at himself for being disturbed by the nightmare.
She should have won Duan Chengxuan's favor without batting an eyelid and gotten his trust to disturb the affairs of the imperial court, but nightmares were like maggots on the bones. The first snow of the Sky Flame was blood-red in her dreams, and it was as if she could smell the scent of blood with every breath.
She had saved countless lives, but she had not been able to save the bones and blood in her stomach. She had not been able to save herself.
After being lost in thought for a moment, she was unable to fall asleep. With a distracted look, she turned around and got up, flustered. "I'm going to take a look at the two hunters from yesterday."
After finding a crappy reason, Gu Danyan left in a hurry.
Duan Chengxuan was no longer sleepy, so he got up after tidying up. When he saw Cheng Shan at the door, he couldn't help but ask, "She's always like this. Looks like he has quite a few opinions towards this king. I'm afraid he still has some thoughts in his heart."
"Your Royal Highness, there's something wrong with your words." Cheng Shan sighed, then passed the secret letter to Duan Cheng Xuan before continuing, "If, after experiencing so many things, the wangfei still holds no grudges towards you, then that's truly the problem. No matter how intelligent the wangfei is, she's still a girl."
Hearing these words, Duan Chengxuan pondered with a dark expression. Looks like I can only take things slowly.
However, Su Yuwan and Gu Danyan were at fault. After hesitating for a moment, he continued: "Let Phantom Demon continue teaching her martial arts. When there's nothing else, help her do something. No need to watch every day."
"Yes." Cheng Shan nodded and followed Duan Chengxuan home.
On the other side, Gu Danyan rushed over to the Hall of Relief. The one with the least injuries was already awake, and when he saw Gu Danyan, he immediately thanked her loudly. Gu Daiyan was so shocked that he quickly covered his mouth with his hand: "The wound hasn't healed yet. What's so noisy about it?"
The hunter did not expect her to have such strong hands. He choked and obediently laid down.
The doctor at the side laughed, so Gu Danyan could only take his pulse and change his dressing. Seeing that he was about to take off his clothes, the hunter asked: "Has the lady gotten married yet?"
The doctor's face darkened, but Gu Pingyan smiled and patted his head like he was patting a child: "We have a family now. I saw them all when I helped you stitch previously."
The burly hunter's face reddened. The doctor beside him wanted to say that this was the princess consort, but he couldn't find the time to do so. He could only look on helplessly.
Gu Liuyan usually ate a lot, ate fast, and had a lot of strength. He managed to turn a person over and arranged a good place for them. The other hunter also woke up and began to curse when he woke up.
When the hunter saw her face, he immediately said, "God damn, how could it be you!"
"Do you have a grudge against me?" Gu Pingyan pointed at himself strangely, then tied a knot on the piece of cloth with his other hand.
The hunter's throat was aching. After a while, he obediently lay down and stopped cursing, "Last time I quarreled with a girl at the city gate, it was you who gave me the silver to stop me."
Thinking about it carefully, Hong Ling had indeed quarreled with these hunters before, but these hunters were still insensible.
Gu Danyan wiped off his sweat and stood up: "This time, you guys are almost dead. Although your arms are protected, but you still can't use too much strength in the future when you're hunting. You'd better do something else."
The hunter stared at her and started coughing. The doctor beside her went over to feed him some medicine, and Gu Ming Yan sat beside her and drank some water. The lightly injured hunter scratched his head and looked at her, "Miss, how much money is this? I only have four taels left in my family …"
The other hunter looked at her as if she was facing a great enemy.
