Evil King’s Favorite Consort - C176
Yun Ting’s face was extremely pale, filled with dark clouds, as though the moment Mu Qianyu said that person’s name, he would immediately find that person and break their neck.
Although Yun Ting was anxious, he knew how to take action.
After a few needles, Mu Qianyu’s condition was already much better.
After about half an hour, Mu Qianyu’s two wrists were already covered with silver needles, and then it was her forehead.
Yun Ting’s thoughts became heavier and heavier, and he didn’t speak again. The light in his eyes was like ink, as he stared closely at the girl lying on the bed.
Although it was painful, it was much better than when the Cold Poison invaded his body.
Gradually feeling sleepy, Mu Qianyu’s eyelids started to get tired, sometimes opening and closing.
He finally couldn’t hold it in and wanted to sleep.
But this was the Prince Qi Palace, so Mu Qianyu was not at ease at all.
She quietly looked at Yun Ting, her lips moved slightly: “I want to sleep for a bit, don’t go.”
In her heart, she had already treated Yun Ting as a close relative after all.
Only if Yun Ting was here to accompany her would she be able to sleep soundly.
Yun Ting’s hand that was using the needles suddenly paused, his pupils shrank, as he stared at her without blinking.
A moment later, he nodded his head and said in a warm voice, “Alright, go to sleep. You can sleep however long you want. I won’t leave. I’ll stay here to accompany you.”
Hearing these words, his heart felt warm, as if he had found the most solid of backing.
Mu Qianyu blinked her eyes and revealed a slight smile, then moved her lips: “Alright.”
Seeing that soft smile, shallow, like a spring breeze, heart itch, also warm.
Yun Ting was immediately stunned, and the hand that was using the needles also stopped.
It turned out that when Xiao Yu wasn’t angry, she looked even better when she laughed.
After that, Mu Qianyu closed her eyes and went to sleep peacefully.
A moment later, her shallow breathing could be heard.
Yun Ting’s anxious heart was finally at ease.
The fact that he could fall asleep proved that he had passed this trial.
“Someone, prepare some food and bring it over later.”
Xiao Chengjin stood at the side and watched the entire scene.
Seeing that Mu Qianyu had fallen asleep, she sighed, as though she was relieved.
“I’m afraid that Young Master Yun will not be able to leave today. After the acupuncture is done, we can rest here after dinner. This King has ordered some people to prepare a room.”
Xiao Chengjin’s voice was light, and no one could discern his emotions, but he could only stare at Yun Ting.
“Many thanks, Your Highness. There’s no need to prepare the room, I’ll stay here to accompany her.”
Yun Ting’s hands did not stop moving, he gently shook his head.
“Sure.”
After a moment of silence, Xiao Chengjin nodded his head and pulled the furious Yin Tianlan who had been standing at the side, and walked out.
“It’s almost dark, time to eat dinner. What do you want to eat?”
Xiao Chengjin walked in front and said indifferently.
Yin Tianlan pouted and followed him from behind.
“Cousin, why did you bring Mu Qianyu back? Since she’s poisoned, why didn’t you just send her to the Madame Yun’s medicine store?”
She was still brooding over what had just happened.
On the other hand, Xiao Chengjin acted as if nothing had happened, as if nothing had happened.
Xiao Chengjin did not reply. He continued to walk forward as the aura on his body became slightly cold.
Yin Tianlan took a step forward, reached out and grabbed his arm, tugging at it anxiously: “Cousin brother, you’re thinking of her, aren’t you? If you want to marry her as your Chief Consort, then … “Then what should I do?”
In the end, he still asked with a flushed face.
Xiao Chengjin stopped and looked at her indifferently, his emotions complex, “Who told you that Mu Qianyu is here?”
Her voice was somewhat cold.
Yin Tianlan was slightly taken aback. She pursed her lips, looking displeased, “Could it be that you’re afraid that I’ll find out, so you forbid others to tell me?”
“Lan Er.”
Xiao Chengjin shook his head, his eyebrows twisting slightly, and he sighed: “You’re being too ridiculous.”
“I’m messing around?”
Yin Tianlan frowned, the emotions in her eyes churning.
“I just happened to run into her on the street. Seeing that something happened to her, I brought her to the Duke Palaces. I originally wanted to ask for an imperial physician, but it was useless, so I called Yun Ting here.”
“It was merely a small matter. Yet, you actually came to me to question me?”
His tone became colder and colder, and in the end, it was obvious that he was displeased.
Yin Tianlan’s expression suddenly froze and she bit her lips. She carefully looked at Xiao Chengjin and discovered that her jade-like face had already been dyed with a layer of black.
This girl usually had an open personality, she was not afraid of anything, and was always acting coquettishly towards Xiao Chengjin.
But if Xiao Chengjin was truly angry, then she was afraid.
He reached out to pull Xiao Chengjin’s sleeve, and stuttered: “Cousin brother, I’m not questioning you, I’m just … “But …”
“But what?”
Xiao Chengjin’s voice was still cold, his face was still ugly, his eyebrows knitted tightly, his gaze unmoving as he stared at Yin Tianlan.
Under the burning gaze, Yin Tianlan’s confidence grew even more lacking until it was completely silent. Her eyebrows drooped low, covering the emotions on her face.
“I’m sorry.”
After a long while, Yin Tianlan finally opened her mouth and bit her lips to admit her mistake.
Xiao Chengjin quietly looked at her for a long time, which made her more and more scared.
Until the very end, she lightly sighed, extended her hand, and stroked her hair, sighing: “Lan Er, what are you thinking about?”
These words seemed to be meant to comfort her.
Yin Tianlan looked up, and seeing that his expression had become a lot calmer, she immediately relaxed.
That’s right, what was he thinking about? Nothing had happened.
“Cousin, I’m hungry.”
“What do you want to eat?”
“I want to eat …”
“Okay, let them do it.”
The tense atmosphere within the Small Courtyard of the Prince Qi Palace had already softened.
At this time, the Xue Mansion had already erupted.
“Unfilial son, ever since ancient times, the marriage of a child has always been ordered by the parents. The words of a matchmaker, not only did you personally find a matchmaker to propose marriage to her, you even made yourself look like this, and jumped into the river for the sake of a broken purse. Do you want to completely throw my Xue Mansion’s face away?”
The Head of the Guards, Xue Ding, was sitting at the seat of honor in a long black robe. His beard was trembling with anger as he slammed his hands on the table.
Xue Ding’s wife, Hangzhou, was also beside them.
The few misses and aunts from Xue Family had all arrived as well, and were all watching Xue Junyu as a joke.
The clothes that was drenched from Xue Junyu’s body were still changed. It was possible that he was too much tormented in the past, so his mental state was not good.
He knelt on the ground with his head bowed, not saying a word. He had no intention of admitting his guilt.
Madame Lian knelt beside her son. Her eyes were filled with tears and her brows were furrowed with worry.
“Jun Yu, I don’t blame your father for talking about you. If you had really set your eyes on that Third Miss, and had discussed it with us in advance, how could you privately invite someone to marry him? Furthermore, you are a Fourth Young Master, how can you jump into a river to please a woman?” Jun Yu, I don’t blame your father for having truly set your eyes on that Third Miss, and if you had discussed it with us in advance, how could you privately ask for someone to marry someone.
Hangzhou was around thirty-six to thirty-seven years old. He was dressed in a jujube red chiffon dress, the same color as his, with a white pearl gold hairpin and two silk gold hairpins stuck into his hair at an angle. On his wrist was a pair of scented beads, and his face was kind.
However, Xue Junyu still kept his head down and did not say a word.
He was currently feeling extremely dejected and worried about Mu Qianyu’s situation, so he basically did not have the mood to deal with his parents.
