Seeing Qingge walk in, Li Jin was slightly surprised, and said with a smile, "Isn't this Princess Qingge? We agreed to meet at night, and the sun hasn't even set yet, why are you here so early..."

"Don't misunderstand!" Qingge interrupted Li Jin, speaking coldly, "I have just issued the regulations through the imperial edict. The Divine Dragon Ceremony will be held in three days. I hope Gu Liyan can also participate in this ceremony. Therefore, I want to see Gu Liyan wake up before then. Otherwise, our agreement will not stand!"

Upon hearing this, Li Jin suddenly understood, nodding with a half-smile, "So that's how it is. I thought Princess Qingge was eager to be with me..."

Qingge glared coldly at Li Jin, who gave an awkward smile and stopped talking. "Well, since it's Princess Qingge's request, I, Li Jin, will naturally grant it. Your Highness, please rest assured, I'll go and make the preparations right away," Li Jin said.

Qingge glared at Li Jin, said nothing more, and got up to leave.

After Qingge left, Yang Wei, who had been hiding behind the cabinet, came out with a gloomy expression. "I really didn't expect her to come to you for help in person."

"Heh, you think she came to ask me for help?" Li Jin sneered, having already seen through Qingge's intentions.

Yang Wei frowned. "Isn't that right? She's bowing down to you now for Gu Liyan's sake..."

"Ha, you've known her for so long but you don't understand her at all!" Li Jin mocked. "She did come for Gu Liyan, but her main purpose was to see if I had any impure thoughts about her."

Yang Wei looked at Li Jin with a puzzled expression. "What do you mean?"

Li Jin squinted and said, "If I had harbored ill intentions just now, she would probably be prepared to fight me to the death. She would rather perish together with me and Gu Liyan than spend this night with me..."

In fact, the moment Li Jin saw Qingge, he noticed her murderous aura. Especially when he mentioned the agreement, the murderous intent emanating from her made him feel a sense of unease.

Li Jin had a premonition that even if he saved Gu Liyan and Qingge agreed to his request, he would still not be able to have her in the end...

Li Jin stroked his chin: "Since that's the case, why not find another way to save our lives..."

Yang Wei looked at Li Jin, who seemed lost in thought, and asked curiously, "Are we really going to intervene to save Gu Liyan? What if he recovers and becomes our greatest enemy?"

Li Jin waved her hand and said, "No need to worry, Gu Liyan will leave soon..."

—Qingge returned to Gu Liyan's room and saw Li Erniang affectionately stroking Gu Liyan's hair. Her face immediately darkened, and she stepped forward to push Li Erniang aside, saying, "You're not allowed to touch him! Get away!"

Li Erniang stumbled from the push, and seeing that it was Qingge who had pushed her, she said irritably, "What do you mean? Can't I even fix his messy hair for him? But you told me to take care of him!"

Qingge glared at Li Erniang and said, "I don't need your care anymore, you can leave!"

Li Erniang's eyes widened, thinking she had misheard. "You, what did you say?"

Qingge coldly said, "I said, this is none of your business. You can leave!"

Li Erniang was furious. "You think you can just tell me to take care of you and I'll take care of you, and then you think you can just leave? Who do you think you are?!"

Qingge coldly addressed Li Erniang, "Before the new law is implemented, I am the administrator of this world, and also Gu Liyan's wife. Therefore, if I tell you to stay, you must stay; if I tell you to leave, you must leave!"

"You're simply, simply a scoundrel!" Li Erniang said irritably.

"Hmph, you're just an eyesore here, you won't be of any help even if you stay!" Qingge said, pouting.

"Hmph, if you're so capable, then save him yourself! I'm not going to serve you anymore!" With that, Li Erniang turned and left.

Just as she reached the door, she bumped into Li Jin. Li Erniang looked at Li Jin with surprise, "Li Jin, what are you doing here..."

Li Jin paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Second Madam, Princess Qingge invited me to help Gu Liyan heal his injuries."

Li Erniang frowned, looking at Li Jin with some suspicion. "You're asking me to heal your injuries? Then you..."

Li Erniang's expression changed, and she looked at Gu Liyan with some worry, thinking about Li Jin's previous actions.

Li Jin naturally saw through Li Erniang's thoughts and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Erniang, I have some miraculous medicines here that can save people."

Li Erniang nodded, secretly glanced at Qingge in the room, and whispered in Li Jin's ear, "Jin'er, you can't touch Gu Liyan's life, and there's also Qingge... If you're not 100% sure, don't try it."

Li Jin raised the corners of her mouth and nodded. "Second Aunt, I understand. Don't worry."

Li Erniang left the room without saying anything.

Li Jin entered the room, closed the door, and said with a smile, "Princess Qingge, you really are thinking of Gu Liyan in every way. In order to help him recover as soon as possible, you even went to threaten me..."

"Li Jin, don't you know the saying: 'The more you know, the faster you die!'" Qingge turned her head and looked coldly at Li Jin. "Just do what you're supposed to do!"

Li Jin smiled slightly and said, "Yes, Your Highness."

Approaching Gu Liyan, he saw the two halves of arrows stuck in Gu Liyan's back, smiled confidently, and raised his hands to hold the arrows in his left and right hands respectively.

Without any warning, it was pulled out effortlessly, and blood gushed out, splattering all over Li Jin.

"Well……"

Gu Liyan let out a muffled groan, his body trembled slightly, and then he fell silent.

"Xiao Li!"
