C84 Away

Gu Qingli tightened her grip on her hand and a long, wide hand appeared.

His palm began to feel warm, proving that the meridians in his body were indeed much more open. The slightly rough cocoon at the tip of her finger rubbed against her palm, lingering on her palm.

She used to pretend she didn't understand, so she herself was very vague, but the words that Xiaoyan said to her mercilessly tore down the layer of paper she didn't want to tear off, how could she not understand what his persuasion meant?

"Even if you hold my hand like this and insist on keeping it, what can you give me? The reason why the Prince cannot answer is because you yourself do not have an answer. "

She took her hand away, not wanting to look at him any longer, and met his eyes with the feeling that she might not be able to control her will.

Xiao Yi Xiu was speechless. He could promise to make her a side wife, or even tell her that he was only interested in her, but what about the princess? He couldn't abandon his wife, and he couldn't seem to turn a blind eye to the princess …

The moon was almost within reach, but he had never dared to take her in his arms or even kiss her like he did his wife. He was afraid that if he did anything excessive, she would leave.

Because he couldn't give her a promise.

After finishing the medicine, Xiao Yi Xiu sat cross-legged on his bed and started to let the energy flow from his Dantian to his limbs and bones, causing fine beads of sweat to appear on his forehead.

Gu Qingli knew it wasn't a good time to disturb him, so she quietly retreated to the side. When she saw his eyes suddenly open, a bright light flashed across her eyes before fading away, retracting her gaze.

She was surprised as she did not expect him to reach such an easy level of mastery four years ago. Moreover, she did not expect that the airflow in his body would return back to the mud ball after thirty-six cycles.

"Your Highness …" "Don't you think so?"

He closed his eyes, then opened them again: "Everything is normal. The area where we were previously blocked has been cleared up, and we can no longer feel the cold water that used to be as cold as ice water. In the past, This King would not be able to feel even the slightest bit of warmth even during a hot summer day. "

Gu Qingli unconsciously raised a smile, feeling an indescribable sense of accomplishment.

However, Xiao Yi Xiu didn't smile and just looked at her.

There was a wind report from outside, saying that there was a visitor.

"Yes," he said.

Gu Qingli had already gotten used to it. There were always some visitors in his house that wouldn't even tell her their names. They would always come and go quietly, and she had met some of them before.

He greeted her in a hurry, and she walked slowly away, only to linger for a while before going to Yuexuan.

Liu Yanyu and Luo Yun were studying acupuncture techniques on the bronze man at the meridian point. Gu Qingli had even taught them this.

"Lady Li Yue!" When Luo Yun saw her, her smile was both sweet and bright.

Gu Qingli was clear that this girl knew how to hide her emotions and had changed her plans. Thus, he only smiled faintly and replied perfunctorily.

"Mister Liu, I would like to speak with you."

Luo Yun's smile became even more innocent and gentle, "Is there something I can't listen to? "Alright, I'll go out and not disturb your private conversation." She went out gently and considerately, closing the door behind her.

Gu Qingli's eyes froze for a moment. She looked at Liu Yanyu and slowly thawed.

"Your Junior Sister is really interesting."

"Ah?" She's a little childish, what's the matter? " Liu Yanyu had just recovered from the bronze man's state of mind and did not take in the words that had just been said.

"Nothing." The waves in Gu Qingli's eyes gradually subsided. For Liu Yanyu's sake, she didn't want to bother with Luo Yun any longer. Those seemingly considerate words were clearly meant to tie her and Liu Yanyu together. If he had the chance, he would definitely confuse and misunderstand Xiao Yixiu's relationship with them.

Even Luo Yun's action of nudging the door as she left was full of malice.

"I've come to give you the last prescription for the prince's treatment. In this mansion, I can only trust you."

"Hmm?" Liu Yanyu was completely focused as he stared at her in confusion. Why did he sound like he was going on a long journey?

Gu Qingli took out the folded prescription from her sleeve and handed it over to him. "Your highness's meridian and Qi points have been cleared today, there's no need to apply any more acupuncture. "I've already tried this prescription myself. With his current body, he won't be unable to bear the medicine any longer."

"Wait, where are you going?"

"Remember, I hope that you can handle all of his medicine by yourself and do not touch anyone else's hand. This request might be a bit excessive, but I know that Young Master Liu is a gentleman that is worth entrusting. "

The last sentence stopped Liu Yanyu's rebuttal. He sighed softly, knowing that she clearly did not want to tell him where she was.

"What about you? On this trip to the Valley of the Godly Doctor, do you still have a chance to fulfill your promise? "

Gu Qingli thought for a moment, "I will. If it's later, please forgive me, Young Master Liu."

Liu Yanyu's eyes lit up again. "I hope that day won't be too far away. After all, my respected teacher is already very old."

Gu Qingli couldn't help laughing. She hadn't thought that this gentle and refined Young Master Liu would know some tricks. That's right, Luo Qingyun was an elderly person, so she couldn't use the reason of being a bit late to keep delaying this promise. If ten or twenty years passed, who knew if Luo Qingyun would live that long?

"Don't tell him that he's meeting with guests in the secret chamber."

Liu Yanyu watched as she disappeared from sight, and after a moment of hesitation, he decided to comply with Li Yue's will and not report to Xiao Yi Xiu.

When Gu Qingli arrived at Xiaoyao's garden, there was no one around. It was as if the sky had caught fire that night. Sunset Clouds covered the moon as if a storm was brewing.

She threw the red muslin cloth into the hole she dug and planted a medicinal plant on it.

Not long after a figure gracefully streaked across the night sky, a figure sneakily appeared from under a tree in the distance.

The black curtain streaked across her face like a bolt of lightning, illuminating her face with a deathly pale light. She looked up in shock, and her eyes were filled with fear. However, after shivering for a moment, he quickly walked to the side of the new medicinal plant.

After the last of the visitors had left, Xiao Yi Xiu's expression was grave as he thought back to what he had just heard.

Liu Zheng endured the bitter cold of the Northwest and died in a foreign land. His son went to the justice courts with a sheet of paper, even going beyond the public's torture, claiming that his father died in injustice, which alarmed all the people in the capital to come and watch.

After Liu Zhengyan's match, the Liu Family lost their family and all those who held the position of officials were demoted to civilians. This proclamation was so vigorous that it was obvious that someone was behind it. Everyone could see that it was of course the brothers Ling Yuanhang and Ling Long.

The grievances turned over once more, and Prime Minister Xin Maowen was once again implicated. This implicated him in finding out that he had stolen medicine all these years in order to gain personal benefits. After taking heavy responsibility, he was chased out of the palace.

As for the palace maid who was a perjury, someone else had come out to testify against her. She had met someone she had met in private, and that person was Xin Jian of Imperial history, Liu Zhengyan's sworn enemy.

As he continued to investigate, it was no longer important where the series of evidence came from. He only knew that with Liu Zhengyan's investigation, although the Liu Family could no longer rise to prominence, the Emperor also gave him compensation, along with some separate titles. And most importantly, it was the sentence of the imperial court, which was established in the course of the history of the Imperial Court.

This time, the emperor could not show him any mercy. He did not even give him the chance to send him to the border.
