Before she could finish her words, she gave a faint smile. "Miss, don't let your thoughts run wild. Let's go rest first. We can talk tomorrow if there's anything."
Hong Zhong thought about it, then nodded her head.
The bedroom of the Xiwu Hall's Main Palace was already in a mess. Since he couldn't live on the cliff anymore, he could only let Qingya support him as he headed towards the side hall of the Xiwu Hall. However, since the battle had been like this tonight, it was fine that Baili Yi Chen didn't know of it. But even the imperial guards that were in charge of the security of the palace hadn't arrived yet!
With that thought, he looked towards where Chu Han and the others were standing.
At this moment, those imperial guards who had been watching this entire time suddenly felt the hairs on their backs stand up. They turned their heads back vigilantly. Why did they suddenly feel so cold?
… ….
Although the sky was currently in the early summer of June, he had been soaked in ice water the entire time and was unable to use his inner force to dispel the cold. At this moment, Baili Yi Chen's lips had already turned white from the cold and after coming out, he took off his drenched dragon robe and used his inner force to remove the cold from his body.
With a dark face, he looked at the Euphorbia salicifolia Maxim, "Tonight, the guard on duty will receive twenty canes, and the Euphorbia salicifolia Maxim will receive forty canes. You two can go down and receive your punishments."
"Yes." The Emperor had been schemed against while they were on duty. To them, a penalty of 40 staff was already considered light!
The few of them accepted the order and turned around to receive their punishment, but when Fang Xing walked to the door, the emperor's cold voice rang out once more, "Today's matters cannot be spread out!"
"General." Today's matter, not only was it related to the prestige of an empire's ruler, it could not be spread out. Not to mention they, the entire Euphorbia salicifolia Maxim, had protected the Emperor, but they had been tricked by such a weak girl, if this were to spread, their Euphorbia salicifolia Maxim would not even need to stay in the Southern Qi anymore!
After everyone had left, Baili Yi Chen withdrew his gaze and looked at the slingshot of the casekeeping. He clenched his hand into a fist and spoke with a cold killing intent in his black eyes, "Hong Zhong, just you wait for us!"
… ….
Completely unaware that he had once again been remembered by an emperor, Hong Zhong fell asleep very quickly after arriving at the side hall. During this time, Qingya had been protecting the side, consoling her caringly.
As for the Regent, whose body had reached the limit of its endurance, he was barely able to make it past a corner before spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood and fainting …
As for the Shezhengwang's Palace, because of Baili Mingyue's loss of consciousness, it was destined to be a sleepless night.
For so many years, the Regent had been injured so severely that he had never fainted outside before! At this moment, Shezhengwang's Palace's doctor was holding fine and long silver needles and stabbing them into his body. Leng Xing, who was at the side, had a face full of anxiety: "Mo Chen, how is master's injury?"
Mo Chen, the doctor exclusive to the Shezhengwang's Palace, was the last disciple of the Penglai Divine Continent's genius doctor. It had already been 15 years since he started recuperating for Baili Mingyue. Ever since he recuperated two years ago, Baili Mingyue's body had been under his care.
Mo Chen held his breath, and with full concentration on inserting all of the silver needles into Baili Mingyue's arm, he shook his head tiredly, "Master's situation is not looking good. Initially, master's condition was not too good because of the cold poison's relapse a few days ago, and he had not recovered from it. "Right now, I can only use acupuncture. I hope that your highness can wake up. If he doesn't wake up after using the acupuncture, then it will be troublesome!"
"What will happen then?" Leng Xing immediately frowned, he could not help but blame himself in his heart. Normally, Wu Hen and Wu Shang would be protecting Master, but tonight, both and me, how did Master get injured like this?!
"Sigh …" Mo Chen slightly sighed, "If the needle master still hasn't woken up, then we can only use ice water as a medium to draw out all the cold poison in his body. This poison will cause a heart-wrenching pain, and I hope that he can wake up!"
Leng Xing's expression changed greatly, "Master's cold poison has not been treated properly and now we still have to extract the cold poison, this..." Isn't this equivalent to taking the life of the prince?
After Mo Chen stabbed another silver needle into Baili Mingyue's body, he finally raised his head to wipe off the sweat on his forehead and coldly said: "Other than this, there is still another way. However, Leng Xing, do you think that kind of person exists? "
The purest power was the purest inner force within a martial arts master's body. If one used their purest power to heal another person's wounds, they would go berserk without even checking. Not only would they not recover, but they might also lose all their inner force because of damage done to their body.
Moreover, Baili Mingyue's cultivation had long surpassed the Navy Tide Continent's. Finding someone with a higher cultivation base was undoubtedly a pipe dream.
After making the last needle, Mo Chen heaved a heavy sigh. After wiping his sweat, he quickly sat in front of Baili Mingyue's bed, pulled her arm over, and checked his pulse.
At this moment, Baili Mingyue was quietly lying on the bed with her eyes closed. Her jade-like face was completely devoid of blood, even her lips had lost the luster of a cherry blossom. Mo Chen, who was trying to cut his pulse, frowned. His master's pulse was getting weaker and weaker, to the point that he couldn't even raise her pulse.
This was not a good sign!
He stood up with a frown and spoke coldly to the servants outside, "Prepare the ice water!"
"Yes sir!" The group of servants quickly ran away.
After Leng Xing heard this, his face paled. Looks like the king's situation is really serious. As he thought about it, he also quickly walked out the door and told Leng Ye everything that had happened inside. Leng Ye was the only female Umbra out of the four great Umbra, and the only one that couldn't serve Master in close proximity. Therefore, at this moment, even though she really wanted to go in and look at him, he could only stay outside the door.
After Leng Ye finished listening to him, Leng Ye's face was filled with shock as she knelt down weakly. Nothing must happen to him, nothing must happen to him! Thinking about that, she looked in the direction of the Xiwu Hall, an extremely cold and sinister look in her eyes!
Before long, the servants ran to carry a large bucket of ice water to Baili Mingyue's room. After Mo Chen removed the silver needle from Baili Mingyue's body, he moved her into an ice bucket.
After Baili Mingyue entered the water, she felt the water in the bathtub freeze into a lump with a 'cha-cha cha' sound. Drops of sweat the size of beans dripped from his forehead. His sword-like eyebrows were knitted together. His tightly shut eyes made him look like he was in great pain. The corner of his mouth was tightly pursed into a line, as if he was patiently enduring it.
Seeing the situation in front of his eyes, Mo Chen's brows tightly knitted together. The cold poison within the body of the Duke since a young age, has always been suppressed in order to recuperate, but now, he had to completely expel the cold poison that he had suppressed before. He himself did not even know what the outcome would be!
… ….
The man in the dream felt as if he had fallen into an endless abyss. It was pitch black all around him, and he could not see anything, but he was sinking down, suffocating from the pain. At that moment, he felt that he was losing his breath and his consciousness was becoming more and more blurry …
In the end, he was still a abandoned person!
With this thought in mind, he gave up on struggling and allowed himself to sink into the endless darkness.
Suddenly, a gorgeous multicolored light appeared before his eyes, causing his eyes to brighten as he slowly opened his eyes.
A figure approached from within the light, causing the suffocating feeling in his chest to gradually disappear. When the girl with a sweet smile approached, his breathing had already become smooth, and the pain on his body was also not that obvious.
For more than ten years, when he wanted to give up, the girl by his side had always been there, accompanying him. Although he did not know her name, nor did he know where she had started, she had always been with him in his dreams. For more than ten years, she had always been there, never abandoning him.
For her, he could not give up so easily!
Looking at the familiar figure before him, he couldn't help but reach out his hands to touch it.
Gradually, it transformed into sand and flowed into the tip of his finger. The gorgeous multicolored light also disappeared, and in the end, that figure disappeared along with the last ray of multicolored light. The boundless darkness in the surroundings made him feel somewhat helpless and at a loss …
He could not, he could not give up on himself like this, he had to break through this endless fear.
Baili Mingyue's consciousness gradually cleared up, and her handsome brows furrowed. Finally, with a "pu" sound, a mouthful of black blood spurted out, dripping into the ice water. After that, her beautiful eyes slowly opened, filled with fatigue.
He woke up!
The bucket filled with ice water shattered. Before they could see it clearly, a pure white robe fell on his body. Leng Xing and Mo Chen heaved a sigh of relief, they had finally succeeded! "Immediately go forward and support him." Master, are you alright? "
"I'm fine." Baili Mingyue's complexion turned deathly pale. Lowering her eyes slightly, she walked to the soft couch in her bedroom and closed her eyes to rest. He knew better than anyone that he could only rely on himself to suppress the cold poison and heal his internal injuries!
Seeing that, Mo Chen waved to the servants, signalling them to leave immediately, to not disturb the Regent's breathing.
Everyone obeyed and filed out.
But, in less than a moment, the Shezhengwang's Palace was thrown into chaos again!
… ….
Maybe because the assassination had caused the grievances in Hong Zhong's heart to erupt, she had slept really deeply last night. Even when the Internal Affairs Bureau sent people over to repair Xiwu Hall, she did not know anything.
Since she didn't have to attend class in the morning, she didn't have to get up early. When he woke up, it was already late in the morning. He called for elegance, served her to get up and change her clothes, and then began to seriously copy the Thousand Words s in the Xiwu Hall's rear hall.
Originally, Qingya and Lv Luo were still worried about what happened last night, causing Hong Zhong's current state to be affected. But as it turned out, not only did Hong Zhong sleep very well, she also ate quite well.
Actually, one of the good things about Hong Zhong was that she was naturally happy about it. She had something to be unhappy about, after she cried, slept for a bit, and on the second day, she would be able to return to her lively appearance. In the words of her sisters, she was just a heartless, unbeatable cockroach!
"Miss, didn't the imperial guards say that they would send the Thousand Words over?" Hong Zhong who was at the side spoke out. Since they have already sent it, why did the Miss need to copy it herself!
After Hong Zhong finished writing, she took advantage of the gap where Qing Ya was holding the xuan paper and opened her mouth, "I was thinking to read and write at the same time, maybe it can help me remember these words faster." This way, she would be able to understand the things in this world even faster, and would be able to integrate into the life here even faster.
"But …" Lv Luo looked at Hong Zhong's words, her delicate little face revealing a troubled expression. In the end, under Hong Zhong's attentive gaze, she slowly opened her mouth: "But Miss, what kind of calligraphy can this be counted as?" It was a mess …
At the side, she nodded her head seriously to express her doubts. These words were all written by the young mistress herself, so she didn't know if she would be able to recognize them if she let the young lady read them herself!
Hong Zhong turned her head and looked at the Xuan paper all over the room that was hanging up. Some words were written crookedly on them, but most of them were indeed pitch black blotches of ink, big and small. Cough cough, well, it wasn't her fault!
"Cough cough …" "Believe me, I will." Hong Zhong laughed awkwardly, then picked up the wolf hair in his hand and dipped it in ink, preparing to continue struggling. Didn't she say that if you practice writing more, you would be better?
However, such an encouraging thought flashed through his mind. After pausing for a moment, a drop of black ink immediately dripped onto the xuan paper in front of him. Looking at the ink, which was starting to faint more and more, Hong Zhong awkwardly laughed at Qing Ya and Lv Luo: "Hehe … Once again, I will definitely write it! "
Qing Ya and Lv Luo looked at each other. Since they felt that they could read each other's eyes, then it meant: I knew it would be like this!
When they had finished looking at each other, Qing Ya immediately stepped forward and removed the Xuan paper. She then took another piece of Xuan paper and put it away well!
Just as the three of them were discussing their duties, a Xiao Gongnv came in to report that South study's Miss Mo Zhu had arrived.
As Mo Zhu was the big palace maid of the South study, he believed that she invited him to class. Hong Zhong put down her brush and prepared to go to the South study to teach, but Mo Zhu walked in quickly. After seeing Hong Zhong, he smiled and said, "Miss, this servant has come to inform the Miss that today, the Imperial Advisor is going to work with the Emperor, and they won't have much time to arrange classes in the afternoon, so Miss, you don't have to go to the South study to learn!"
"Oh." Hearing that, since he did not need to go to the South study, then shouldn't he face that damned Emperor?! Thinking about it this way, Hong Zhong also felt that it was very strange. He had just taught the doggy emperor a lesson last night.
