After the meal, Fang Zinan asked Xiao Tianyuan to come to his room to talk while Shang Yiqing and Ying Ying prepared the herbs.
"You mean we're being watched?" In fact, when he had arrived at the hot spring, he had also seen a shadow flash by. It was to be expected.
Fang Zinan raised his head and looked at the sky. The sun was shining brightly and the dark green grass in the distance was covered in leaves. A faint smile appeared on his face as he sighed, "Who do you think is the one who sent people to monitor us?"
"Is there even a need to ask? It must be your brothers. Aside from them, I can't think of anyone else." Xiao Tianyuan replied with a smile as he fiddled with the teacup in his hand.
"It's really hard on these brothers of mine. Even my current situation is hindering them." Fang Zinan shook his head and laughed at himself before sitting on the chair.
"How's the poison?" Xiao Tianyuan asked.
"Not good, my poison might be …" He had been afflicted with the bizarre poison for several years now, and he thought that he would be able to completely remove the poison this time. To think that it would still be ineffective! Fang Zinan sighed, "Let's not talk about this anymore. I've called you here today to go back earlier."
Xiao Tian Yuan's eyes widened, "Your poison has not been purged. Why are you going back now? Wouldn't it mean that all of his efforts will come to naught? "
"The empress's birthday is coming up soon. I want to prepare a wedding gift." Although she couldn't do anything about the poison in her body, she still had to pay attention to the empress's birthday present. The empress had no son, so she treated him as if he were nothing. How could he betray the empress's care and concern?
"The Empress is only celebrating her birthday next month, what are you so anxious about?" "Your body …" Xiao Tianyuan said with a worried look in his eyes.
"I know my body the best. Go and prepare for it. After three days, we'll head back." Fang Zinan instructed him.
Xiao Tian Yuan pondered for a while, before finally sighing and nodding. "Since you've already made your decision and I know I can't stop you, I'll go and make some preparations. We'll head back in three days."
That night, just as the third fragment of the night was over, Shang Yiqing was suddenly awakened by a burst of suppressed breathing. She looked through the dim moonlight, and Fang Zinan's forehead and face was covered in sweat.
He quickly got off the bed and walked over to Fang Zinan and pressed a few acupoints on his body. At this moment, Fang Zinan's face was red, but the corner of his mouth was as red as a plum blossom.
Shang Yiqing quickly took out a pill from the bottle and fed it to Fang Zinan. Then she lit the candle and took out a silver needle to ease Fang Zinan's pain.
Fang Zinan opened his eyes and glanced at Shang Yiqing, "My poison is hopeless, you don't have to waste your efforts!"
"That won't do! It is my duty to save the dying and to help the wounded. " After a few needles, Fang Zinan's face looked better, but Shang Yiqing was blaming herself. She was the one who suggested bringing Fang Zinan here, but her method was ineffective and Fang Zinan didn't seem to be getting better at all! Was she completely wrong? Seeing him in such pain, her heart was naturally in pain as well!
Fang Zinan spat out a mouthful of blood, which turned purple. Under the light of the candlelight, all he felt was darkness.
"Fang Zinan, how are you feeling?" It wasn't the first time that he saw Fang Zinan spit out blood, but this time, he felt terrified. Shang Yiqing only felt a pang in his chest, as if something was wrong.
"I …" Fang Zinan opened his eyes with great difficulty and tried to force out a smile, but the pain made his body twitch and he started to tremble.
Shang Yiqing did not care about anything else as she hugged Fang Zinan tightly, exclaiming, "Fang Zinan, don't scare me, just tell me you're fine!" Although she said those words, she didn't feel confident at all. She only subconsciously hugged Fang Zinan tightly. She felt his pain and felt powerless.
"Don't worry, I'll force the poison on you!" Shang Yiqing made up her mind. She couldn't just watch him die. As she spoke, he lifted up Fang Zinan, channeled all of her energy, and pressed her hands against the meridians on Fang Zinan's back to force him to be poisonous!
Shang Yiqing's skill was inferior to Fang Zinan's, and it was extremely taxing. Seeing Fang Zinan's body in extreme pain, Shang Yiqing was extremely anxious, so she could only grit her teeth and try her best to lose her power to Fang Zinan, hoping that she would feel better.
After an unknown amount of time, the heat emitted from Fang Zinan's body made both of them wet. Shang Yiqing felt that the zhenqi in Fang Zinan's body was strongly resisting, as if it was trying to force the power she had transferred back into his body. What should he do now? Without thinking, he used 100% of his power to force her way into Fang Zinan's body.
Fang Zinan's body was still trembling. He could feel that Shang Yiqing had used up all of her Zhen Qi, and he felt gratified yet regretful at the same time. He shouted out hoarsely: "Quickly stop, if this continues, even you …" They will all be injured! "
"I'm not afraid. You, you just need to cooperate with me!"
In this kind of crisis, who would care so much? Shang Yiqing didn't listen to Fang Zinan's advice at all, even going all out with her inner force.
With a "boom", Shang Yiqing was blasted away by the Qi in Fang Zinan's body. His entire body bounced off, and she felt a fishy sensation in her throat as she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Shang Yiqing, are, are you alright?" Fang Zinan quickly turned around to support Shang Yiqing.
"I was too stupid. I said that I would help you cure the poison, but even now, I haven't been able to help you …" I... I am ashamed! " Shang Yiqing spat out another mouthful of blood after she finished speaking. Her vision went dark as she fell to the ground unconscious.
"Shang Yiqing... "Shang Yiqing …" Fang Zinan endured the pain in his body and called for Shang Yiqing loudly. She felt his body getting hot. The extreme pain made him unable to endure any longer. His body tilted and she fell down together with Shang Yiqing …
The next morning, in the middle of the morning, Xiao Tian Yuan had already prepared breakfast. He didn't see the two of them come out of their room, but was very confused. He couldn't help but ask Ying Ying, "Did you see Fang Zi Nan and the rest wake up today?"
Ying Ying shook her head. "From this morning until now, I haven't seen Big Brother Fang or Miss Shang at all."
Xiao Tianyuan couldn't help glancing at Fang Zinan's room. What were these two doing? Although he was confused, he didn't think of anything else. Instead, he walked up to Fang Zinan's window and asked, "Brother Fang, Miss Shang, are you awake yet?" After asking this question, he felt that it was inappropriate again. Thus, he stood by the window and hesitated for a moment.
