Feng Qingying originally wanted to return to his room, but unknowingly, Feng Qingying walked to the outside of Xiao Feimo's room. Inside the room, the oil lamp was lit, and from the outside, no one could hear anything.
"Mr. Yun, how is the prince?"
Feng Qingying did not know what was going on inside, and was afraid that it would affect Xiao Feimo. He did not dare to barge in recklessly, and only stood at the door and asked.
"The prince is fine."
Only after hearing Yun Qing's voice did Feng Qingying relax a little.
"Can I go in and see your highness?"
"The incantation is extraordinary, and people unrelated to it are not allowed to barge in. The prince has ordered for Princess Hua-Yang to return and rest first."
"Then I'll have to trouble Mr. Yun to take care of Your Highness."
Feng Qingying was a bit more at ease, and returned to his room first after admonishing her.
At the moment, Xiao Feimo was lying on the bed, enduring the extreme pain. He was only wearing a thin layer of simple clothes, his clothes were already completely drenched in sweat, his hands and feet were tied to the bed by a thick hemp rope, a ball of cotton was stuffed in his mouth, his eyes and skin were scarlet red, his face was distorted, his entire body emitted a faint black Qi, as though he was being roasted in flames, beads of perspiration continuously oozed out.
Seeing Xiao Feimo in such pain, Yun Qing stood by the bed and picked up a embroidered box from the table.
After opening the embroidered box, there was a piece of ice that was emitting cold Qi, on it laid a transparent insect that was wiggling slowly, the insect emitted a faint cold Qi, Yun Qing placed the insect on his palm and removed the cotton cloth in Xiao Feimo's mouth, then placed the transparent bug into Xiao Feimo's mouth.
In but an instant, the bug disappeared.
Immediately after, Xiao Feimo clearly felt a chill down his spine, the pain was alleviated, but his voice was still extremely hoarse.
"The ice silkworm is a rare treasure. This King will definitely remember your kindness."
Even Xiao Feimo had never seen the Frozen Silkworm before. He never thought that Yun Qing had one here, and even more so, never thought that he would give the Frozen Silkworm to him.
"There's no use for me to keep this ice silkworm. Since your highness can use it, there's no harm in giving it to your highness. I hope that your highness will treat the Duke Changping's Mansion well in the future."
Yun Qing saw it clearly from the side. If he did not use the ice silkworm and persevered for a long time, Xiao Feimo was afraid that he would not have much luck. It was extremely difficult to endure this trial, and no one had ever been able to pass it.
Xiao Feimo was too important to the Yan Kingdom; he did not wish for Xiao Feimo to die here.
"As long as Master Hou is aware of the big picture, this king will not use my Duke Changping's Mansion."
"Prince's words are enough, I don't know much about the matters of the imperial government, and I don't want to talk too much. Just now, the wangfei came to see you, if you had her by your side to take care of you, you might feel better. Why isn't Prince willing to see her?"
He wanted to let Feng Qingying in just now, but Xiao Feimo rejected him.
Although this would be more comfortable, the pain in his body would still remain, and he could only forcefully endure it. "This King doesn't want the wangfei to see his appearance."
"Afraid that wangfei's heart will hurt?"
"Afraid of scaring her."
"I see that wangfei is very bold. If you're afraid of scaring her, then you're overthinking things." Yun Qing laughed, "If Your Highness is just unwilling to let my wife feel heartache, there's no need to bring her over. In the end, Your Highness still wants my wife to feel heartache."
Xiao Feimo neither admitted nor denied it, "Sir is an expert beyond this world, why do you care about all this?"
"Before I escaped into the Emptiness Realm, I also liked people."
Yun Qing straightforwardly sat on a chair next to Xiao Feimo and chatted with him. Although it was Xiao Feimo's first time meeting him, he was not unfamiliar with him.
"There are some things that can only be relieved if you let go of it. If not for the things you let go of back then, there would not be the Yun Qing today."
"This king's thoughts are the exact opposite of mister's. I am clearly determined to become mister today. If mister had no obsession, you wouldn't have escaped into the Void Gate and surpassed all living things, but you couldn't escape your own heart."
He had already investigated all the things that Yun Qing had experienced back then, and this was also the reason why he was so confident.
Before he came here, he knew that Yun Qing would definitely help him, and even without Shangguan Nanyi, he would still save him.
Yun Qing never thought that Xiao Feimo would actually see through her so clearly. That pair of deep eyes seemed to be able to see through her heart.
He did not continue the conversation and changed the topic, "That child Nanyi has the big picture, but he can't help but be deceived by stubbornness. Others may not understand, but Prince will understand that, and if Nanyi dares to offend Prince, I hope that Prince will show mercy to him, and one day, he will think it through clearly."
"This King understands mister's meaning. This King still has to say it, I won't use my Duke Changping's Mansion as I please."
"Even if the prince had survived this ordeal, he would no longer have a son. Is it worth it?"
"Having a childless child is not important. Since This King has done it, it's worth it."
Xiao Feimo's words brought back all the memories that were buried in his heart. How many years had it been, he never would have thought that a junior actually revealed his intentions during the small talk today? No wonder he dared to come and find him, he had long figured out his background.
He is indeed a Prince Regent with the authority to rule the world.
"I've already done what I needed to do. The rest is up to your good fortune, I will go meditate first."
With that, Yun Qing went to the inner room to meditate, if he continued speaking with Xiao Feimo, he would be in a mess too.
After Feng Qingying returned home, he was tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. Xiao Feimo had her eyes wide open. This kind of feeling was extremely painful, and also made her very confused. Why was she so worried about Xiao Feimo?
What the hell.
When they saw Feng Qingying's drowsy face, Shangguan Nanyi reminded him with concern, "Have Housekeeper Liu boil a bowl of mind calming soup for the wangfei in a while. This soup has an extremely good mind."
"Yes."
Feng Qingying didn't even hear what Shangguan Nanyi had said, as he responded listlessly.
Suddenly, the old steward hurried over with a letter, "Master Hou, this is a letter that the house of the Marquis has ordered someone to deliver."
Shangguan Nanyi put down the spoon in his hand and took the letter from the old butler. After reading the letter, Shangguan Nanyi's face changed and he quickly stood up.
"Princess, I have something I need to return to the house of the Marquis. Princess, you should go back to your room to rest after breakfast!"
Feng Qingying, who was originally extremely tired, instantly became much more clear-headed. He vaguely guessed of a possibility in his heart and casually asked, "What happened at the Marquis Mansion?"
All of these things had nothing to do with Feng Qingying at all. Originally, there was no need to tell Feng Qingying, so Shangguan Nanyi naturally continued, "My sister, something happened."
Hearing that it was Shangguan Linglong, Feng Qingying was completely awake. Shangguan Linglong was her protective talisman, and if something happened to her right now, she would most likely be born prematurely.
"I'll go back with the duke. Perhaps I can help."
The originally sleepy Feng Qingying had a serious face, without a trace of weariness.
Shangguan Nanyi was stunned, why did she follow him? After hesitating for a moment, she nodded her head, "This is good too."
