Chapter 269 In Danger
Chapter 269 In Danger
Looking at the various pearl hairpins, jewelry, silks and satins in front of her, Jiang Xinxue was very satisfied. After tomorrow, her identity as the Princess of Nanmo Kingdom would be announced to the world. This made Jiang Xinxue very excited. You know, this was something she had never dared to think about before.
Thinking of Concubine Qi's words that she would send a few palace maids to serve her today, she had been waiting for such a long time, but no one came. This made her very confused. She wanted to go to Chengyun Palace to ask, but when she thought about herself, she was now Nangong Mo's princess, and Concubine Qi was a concubine without children, how could she bother to go there in person? She immediately looked at Cui Xin and ordered, "Go ask Concubine Qi if there is anything she should pay attention to tomorrow."
Although she would not go there in person, it did not prevent her from asking the palace maid to go and take a look. She might even gain some benefits.
Cui Xin naturally dared not refuse Jiang Xinxue's words and immediately bowed in agreement. However, Cui Xin was sent away as soon as she arrived at Chengyun Palace. She didn't even see Concubine Qi.
In order to avoid being punished by Jiang Xinxue, Cui Xin had no choice but to reply to Jiang Xinxue, "Concubine Qi has gone to bed, and I have not seen her."
Hearing Cui Xin's words, Jiang Xinxue's face suddenly darkened. She had not expected that now that she was about to be canonized, Concubine Qi would be so perfunctory to her. She immediately decided to teach her a lesson tomorrow.
At this moment, Jiang Xinxue was only thinking about the unlimited rewards she would receive tomorrow, but she didn't know that Concubine Qi had already passed away, and even her own situation was precarious.
……
Jiang Xinxue was still dreaming about the Spring and Autumn period, while Jiang Shuyu was in great danger. Xu Yiyuan looked at Jiang Shuyu's pale face, and a trace of pity flashed in his eyes. He immediately prepared to stop.
Sensing Xu Yiyuan's intention, Jiang Shuyu immediately looked at him and said, "Master, I can still hold on! Now is the critical moment, success or failure depends on this one move, Prince Nangong must not be in any danger!"
Jiang Shuyu has learned about the current situation of Nanmo Kingdom from Xiao Jingchuan and knows the importance of Nangong Junze. If Nangong Junze dies, Nanmo Kingdom will probably follow the footsteps of the wars in the past. Whether for the sake of the people of Nanmo Kingdom or for the sake of Nangong Mo and his son, she feels that she should persist and not give up halfway.
Xu Yiyuan saw that Nangong Junze's condition was gradually improving. If the treatment was interrupted, it would be difficult for him to recover completely. However, the price Yu'er paid during this period was too high. He saw it with a bit of pity.
Looking at Nangong Junze's calm appearance, Xu Yiyuan looked at him with disdain and said, "Forget it, today is the last time. If he still can't wake up, then this old man is powerless. If he wasn't the kid that Jiang Lan was willing to die to protect, I wouldn't have spent so much effort to save him!! If he doesn't compensate you after he wakes up, this old man doesn't mind letting him continue to lie here."
Knowing that Xu Yiyuan has a sharp tongue but a soft heart, he is going all out for his aunt's affairs without any selfish motives. Moreover, Nangong Junze is the hope that his aunt has exchanged her life for, so how could he just leave it alone? Thinking of Jiang Lan, Jiang Shuyu couldn't help but feel helpless. If her aunt had chosen her master, she would probably be living an ordinary life in seclusion in the countryside now.
But these are just her imaginations. No matter what her aunt says, this is the life she has chosen, and no one has the right to interfere. Thinking of her unrealistic ideas, Jiang Shuyu couldn't help but smile bitterly. If she continued to lie here, she was afraid that she would go crazy.
After the last drop of blood flowed into Nangong Junze's vein, Xu Yiyuan quickly pulled out the silver needle and pierced Nangong Junze's body. Seeing Nangong Junze's rosy face, Xu Yiyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Later, he came to Jiang Shuyu to treat her. Seeing Xiao Jingchuan's worried look and the faint anger in his eyes, Xu Yiyuan couldn't help but touch his nose, and then looked at Xiao Jingchuan guiltily and said:
"Take care of Yu'er and have a good rest. Nangong Junze can slowly recover. Yu'er has suffered a lot these days. I will prescribe some Qi-tonifying and blood-tonifying prescriptions for her. I guarantee that she will recover!"
"Prescribe a prescription for Yu'er first, and I'll have someone get the medicine!"
"That's fine. Nangong Mo said that the medicinal herbs in the palace can be used freely. Yu'er will be fine!" Looking at Xiao Jingchuan's gloomy look, Xu Yiyuan began to suspect that Jiang Shuyu had some incurable disease. Although the method he said was a bit shocking, it did not put too much pressure on Jiang Shuyu's body. Fortunately, he was not here during the treatment, otherwise, he could imagine what he would do.
Xu Yiyuan had just written out the prescription, and Xiao Jingchuan immediately took it over and told Mu Yi to get the medicine. Xiao Jingchuan immediately carried Jiang Shuyu into the side hall. Feeling Xiao Jingchuan's warmth, Jiang Shuyu couldn't help but feel extremely relieved.
Jiang Shuyu secretly looked at Xiao Jingchuan and saw his ashen face. She couldn't help feeling guilty and buried her head in his arms involuntarily, not daring to look into his eyes.
Feeling the tightness in his arms, Xiao Jingchuan's eyes flashed with nervousness, fearing that his rudeness would hurt Jiang Shuyu, and he couldn't help but be more careful with his hands.
Jiang Shuyu looked at his cautious look and couldn't help but feel a little sorry for him. She immediately hugged him tightly and comforted him softly:
"I'm sorry for making you worry. I won't do that again next time!"
Xiao Jingchuan looked at her apologetic expression and couldn't help but sigh. He immediately looked at her helplessly and said, "Are you planning on doing this again? If there is a next time, I will lock you up in the palace and send someone to keep a close eye on you!!"
Even so, Xiao Jingchuan knew that his life was in her hands. Seeing her injured and weak, he wished he could take her place.
Jiang Shuyu looked at the doting in Xiao Jingchuan's eyes, and a little starlight flashed in her eyes. She was so lucky to be treated like this by him. "No, there won't be a next time!"
Seeing Jiang Shuyu like this, Xiao Jingchuan felt even more distressed. He gently placed her on the soft couch. Then Xiao Jingchuan took out a red jadeite and golden phoenix hairpin from his body and handed it to Jiang Shuyu:
"I wasn't with you when you came of age, and I prepared this hairpin for you. Now it's time to return it to its rightful owner."
Listening to Xiao Jingchuan's words, Jiang Shuyu realized that she had already passed the age of marriage. She had been in Nanmo country for so long.
