Bai Zhan's tense nerves finally relaxed after hearing Mu Xuanli's words.

The dark expression on his face eased a little.

"Since the Empress is fine now, I will take my leave, Huan Yue emperor."

Mu Xuanli looked at the 'White Battling Cake' and saw that he was still staring at the unconscious Hua Mujiao. His gaze never left her, so he naturally couldn't stay any longer.

Nan Ge sent Mu Xuanyin out. When Shangguan Yi and Luo Chen saw him come out, they both went up and asked him about Mu Jin's condition.

"How is it? Are she and her child okay? "

Looking at Shangguan Yi, Mu Xuanyi pursed his lips, a strange light in his eyes.

Soon after, he smiled and said, "It's fine, as long as you take a few days to rest, there's no problem. However, it seems that General Shangguan has a very deep relationship with the Empress, and is actually very worried. "

Hearing Mu Xuanli's words, Luo Chen felt relieved.

However, Shangguan Yi was startled by Mu Xuanyin's question.

He raised his eyes and stared at Mu Xuanyin for a long time before smiling, "As an official, how could I not be worried for the ruler? The first prince's question was quite funny.

Pursing his lips, Mu Xuanli could clearly see that Shangguan Yi and Hua Mu Jin's relationship wasn't simple.

However, since he wanted to conceal it, there was no reason for him to expose it either.

"General Shangguan, don't worry. This prince has only casually said so. If you have offended him, please forgive me."

Shangguan Yi had not spent these past few days in vain interacting with the Minister of the Southern Kingdom. He had discovered quite a few things, one of which he remembered most of the day.

That was, the monarch and queen of the south did not like the man with Hibiscus Blossom's mother at all.

It could be said that he was extremely disgusted.

If the Emperor of the Southern Kingdom were to find out that his father was the man with Hua Mu Jin's mother and that he also had an official wife, he would probably loathe his father even more, right?

"The First Prince speaks very seriously. This general shall first thank the First Prince for saving the Empress's life. Many thanks."

Shangguan Yi had heard from Luochen that the Crown Prince of the Skylaurel Kingdom was dragged along with him by Mu Xuanli. Otherwise, by the time they arrived at the Northern Palace, Hua Mu Jin would probably be dead …

"General Shangguan is too polite. In any case, Your Highness is still her royal uncle and, if you want to calculate, I am her elder. Even though she is currently the concubine of the Huan Yue emperor, she is still the Princess of Ping Le!"

Mu Xuanli's words were obviously meant to tell Shangguan Yi that he and Hua Mujiao were blood related.

Originally, he had sincerely expressed his thanks, but the person in front of him had completely separated him from Hua Mu Jin.

Shangguan Yi smirked. "The prince is right. Since Niang Niang is Princess Pingle of the Southern Kingdom, I wonder what will happen if the princess is harmed in her own palace and the king is king?"

"Naturally, it will make Huan Yue satisfied."

After Mu Xuanyin finished speaking, she smiled at Shangguan Yi and left.

Shangguan Yi stood rooted to the spot with a frown. It took her some time before she understood why Mu Xuanli had mentioned in front of him that he was Hua Mujiao's royal uncle.

"General, what are you laughing at?"

At the side, Luo Chen looked at Shangguan Yi, who was smiling maliciously, and nudged her with his shoulder.

Shangguan Yi glanced at Luo Chen and snappily said, "Your mistress is fine, shouldn't I be happy?"

Luo Chen smirked at Shangguan Yi.

"You can be happy, but, General, your smile just now was very sinister. Are you sure you're happy?"

Hearing that, Shangguan Yi turned around and glared at Luo Chen.

Sensing the danger, Luo Chen took two steps back.

"You're the one who is meddling in my affairs. Hurry up and tell someone to prepare some plain porridge. Don't wait for her to wake up hungry."

Looking at Shangguan Yi's impatient expression, Luo Chen raised his eyebrows and smiled maliciously. "The General usually squabbles with the Empress, but he's actually very concerned about her. Why deny it? Am I right?"

When he found out that Hua Mujiao was fine, Luo Chen was relieved, and naturally was in the mood to joke around with Shangguan Yi.

"Pa …"

He didn't know whether it was Luo Chen's words or his guilty conscience, but Shangguan Yi took out the folding fan in her hand and knocked on Luo Chen's head.

"Cut the crap! This general still has things to do. Take good care of your master and mistress. If anything happens, this general will cut off your legs!"

Looking at Shangguan Yi's defeated appearance, Luo Chen could not help but feel amused.

"Yes, your subordinate accepts the order!"

Within the palace.

Green Bamboo came in and looked at the medicine left behind by the First Prince. He then looked at Bai Zhan Ke. He didn't know what to do.

"Your majesty, it's time to apply medicine on the Empress."

"Get down."

Just as Green Bamboo finished his sentence, he heard Bai Zhan Ke's cold voice.

She looked at the still unconscious Hua Mu Jin on the bed. Even though she was worried, she still respectfully withdrew herself.

Not long after the green bamboo left, Bai Zhan Ke stood up, picked up the white porcelain bottle on the side, and lifted up some of the bedding covering Hua Mu Jin's body.

Following that, he untied the belt on the unconscious Hua Mujiao and looked at the eye-catching wound on her abdomen. His brows were tightly knitted, and a hint of killing intent was revealed in his eyes.

Bai Zhan Ke squinted his eyes, withdrew the killing intent in his eyes, and started to apply medicine on Hua Mu Jin.

But halfway through the medicine, Hua Mu Jin, who was originally unconscious, suddenly made a move. She felt a strange coldness come from all over her body, and her body involuntarily trembled.

Sensing the movement of the flower hibiscus, Bai Zhan Ke turned around. When he saw her slowly opened her eyes, the corner of his mouth rose slightly.

"I, I'm a little cold."

When Hua Mujiao opened her eyes, all she saw was a white battle cry.

She reached out to grab the quilt, but found that she didn't have the strength to do so.

Hearing Hua Mujiao's voice, Bai Zhan's lips moved, "Your wounds haven't finished applying medicine yet. Wait a bit longer, I'll help you heal them first."

It was unknown whether it was an illusion or not, but Hua Mujie felt that today's battle was exceptionally gentle.

Looking at Bai Zhan carefully applying the medicine for her, Hua Mu Jin pursed her lips, and the dryness in her mouth made her swallow her saliva.

"I want some water."

As soon as Hua Mu Jin finished her sentence, Bai Zhan Ke put down the white porcelain bottle in his hand, turned around and walked over to the table to pour himself a glass of water.

After that, he helped her up from her bed and fed her some tea.

After drinking the water, Hua Mujiao took a probing glance at the white battle cry, blinked and said, "Bai Zhan Ke, you're so gentle, I'm a little not used to it."

Normally, Bai Zhan Ke had a straight face, but it could be said that he had no expression on his face.

"It's good that you're used to it."

"…"

Just get used to it?

Hua Mu Jin was a bit speechless. She moved her body, wanting to retort, but just as she was about to prop herself up, a sharp pain came from her lower abdomen.

Only then did she remember what she had experienced.

In his heart, he was instantly in a panic.

She grabbed Bai Zhan Ke's arm and bit her lips. "Bai Zhan Ke, our child, our child …"

Bai Zhan Kui held the flustered Hua Mujiao tightly, smoothing her hair. "It's fine, don't be afraid."

Hearing Bai Zhan Ke's gentle voice, Hua Mujiao's panicked heart sank.

She looked at the wound on her abdomen. She wanted to reach out to touch it, but she was afraid.

"Jin'er, I'm sorry. I won't let you be in danger again. I swear!"

Bai Zhan Ke's firm words warmed Hua Mujiao's heart. Even the wound on her abdomen wasn't as painful as before.

She turned her head, looked at him steadily, and nodded.

At the same time, he felt a little guilty.

"I'm sorry, I was careless this time around. I did not expect that someone stronger than my martial arts would suddenly appear. That's why …"

Originally, when she was facing the bodyguard of the so-called Crown Prince of the State of Heaven, Hua Mujiao was completely confident. Although Bai Zhan Ke had taught her some martial arts, it was only on the surface.

In this foreign world, there were countless experts in martial arts. It was only because she was careless that she was injured.

And what she felt guilty about was worrying Bai Zhan Ke.

"It's good that you're fine. From now on, I will let Nan Ge follow you. No matter where you go, remember to let him follow you."

Bai Zhan Ke could not be with Hua Mu Jin anytime and anywhere. Just in case, it was best to send Nan Ge along.

Hua Mu Jin didn't like to be followed, but after this incident, she didn't dare to say anything.

"En, I'm sorry."

Hibiscus Blossom rarely bowed her head in front of him. She held her face in her hands and leaned over to kiss her warm, somewhat pale lips.

Although the dragonfly touched her lips with the water, Hua Mujie's cheeks were still slightly flushed.

"Rest first. I'll get someone to prepare some food for you."

He placed the flower hibiscus on the bed and stood up.

Just as he was about to call out to her, she grabbed his hand.

Hua Mujiao's lips moved, her voice was a little soft, "Bai Zhan Ke, I don't care if he is the Crown Prince of the Skylaurel Kingdom, or some other important figure of another country, but I am definitely not the kind of person who would swallow his anger and refuse to retaliate after being beaten by someone."

Although Hua Mujiao's voice was very soft, her tone was extremely firm.

As the saying goes, if someone doesn't offend me, I won't offend them. If someone offends me, I will return the favor tenfold. This was the creed that Hua Mu Jin had always followed.

"I know!"

These three simple words were a form of answer to Hua Mujiao.

However, she did not wish for him to make a move.

"What I mean is, I want to take care of this matter myself. If you make a move, there will be conflict between the two countries and it will definitely lead to a war. At that time, I think I will become a demon woman who will bring calamity to the people."

In a war between two countries, only the common people would suffer. Flower Hibiscus understood this principle.

Furthermore, if a Sovereign King were to start a war between two countries for a concubine, that concubine would definitely be insulted to the extreme.

Although she didn't care what people said about her, she did care that people had bad rumors about her.

"Jin'er, it's only a matter of time before Huan Yue and the Heavenly Light Empire fight. I'll handle this matter, you just have to rest assured and recover from your injuries."
