Chapter 171 Xiao Jiwu Rushes to Xiyuan

What we did today was really beautiful!

It also allowed him to find the free and easy feeling of "leaving the place after the work is done, hiding the body and name".

To sum it up in one word: awesome!

Yun Qingshi was feeling very happy, but when he reached the gate of Xiyuan, he ran into Changshun who was walking out in a panic.

Yun Qingshi immediately quickened his pace and walked over to ask in confusion, "Changshun, what's wrong with you? You look so flustered."

Chang Shun finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Yun Qingshi coming back. He hurriedly said, "Sir, where have you been? You left so suddenly without telling me. I was almost scared to death by you—"

ah......

It turned out that she was looking for him.

Yun Qingshi felt a little guilty when he heard the voice.

As for Changshun, he noticed the blood on Yun Qingshi's chest. He turned pale with fright, pointed at the blood with a trembling finger and said, "Blood, sir, you are bleeding..."

Upon hearing this, Yun Qingshi also lowered his head to glance at his clothes, then shook his head nonchalantly and said, "It's nothing, don't be afraid, I'm fine."

He also did not forget to express his apology: "Well, sorry, I just went out for a stroll just now, and you happened to be away at that time. Next time I go out again, I will definitely tell you."

Chang Shun felt a little relieved after hearing Yun Qingshi's explanation. He also saw that the other party's face didn't look bad, so he didn't think much about it. He breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "I'm glad you're okay."

He continued, "By the way, the small honeydew melon you requested, sir, is on the table."

"Okay." Yun Qingshi nodded in agreement and then slowly returned to the house.

He first went to look at the honeydew melon on the table. After that, he took off his blood-stained robe and put it on the light couch. Then he went to wash his hands. After all, he had just caught a pig and his hands were still stained with blood.

After washing his hands, Yun Qingshi went to eat honeydew melon. Later, he went to lie on the couch and read a storybook. Then, feeling sleepy, Yun Qingshi lay down and prepared to take a nap...

Let’s go back to the other side, shortly after the doctor left.

Chu Zhiyu rinsed his mouth with water and lay on the bed sulking.

He now hated Yun Qingshi even more.

Then after lying down for a while, Chu Zhiyu suddenly couldn't help coughing twice.

At first he didn't take it seriously, but he never thought that the cough was just the beginning.

Less than a moment later, his stomach felt uncomfortable, as if countless ants were gnawing at his internal organs.

No, not just his stomach, his chest, throat, and mouth all felt like they were being bitten by insects, burning, painful, and itchy.

Chu Zhiyu immediately became anxious and called Yuzhu's name anxiously: "Yuzhu! Come in quickly, Yuzhu!"

Then he realized that even his voice had become extremely hoarse.

Yuzhu heard the sound and entered the room, asking hurriedly, "Master, what's wrong with you? Where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Chu Zhiyu coughed uncomfortably, scratching his neck and chest with his fingers desperately, but it didn't help at all. He hurriedly ordered Yuzhu: "Quick, go get a doctor. There's something wrong with the blood Ying Shiyi sent. Ahem, he poisoned me..."

Yuzhu was incredulous after hearing this: "How could this happen?"

Seeing Yuzhu was in a daze and didn't go find a doctor, Chu Zhiyu immediately overturned the bowl on the small table and urged again: "Go find a doctor quickly!"

Yuzhu finally came to her senses and hurried out to find a doctor.

But less than half a minute later, she ran back.

Seeing this, Chu Zhiyu asked uncomfortably: "Where's the doctor? Didn't I ask you to find a doctor? Why did you come back alone?"

Yuzhu replied anxiously: "I went there, but for some reason, the entire palace was guarded by the guards, and I couldn't get out."

Chu Zhiyu scratched his neck vigorously, not stopping even when it bled. Upon hearing the sound, he angrily shouted at Yuzhu, "Then go find the prince! Save me!"

Yuzhu was also frightened by Chu Zhiyu's appearance at this moment. She couldn't help but take two steps back before answering in a trembling voice: "But the prince hasn't returned home yet..."

After hearing the answer, Chu Zhiyu wanted to scold Yuzhu, but he was no longer able to do so. The endless pain had already driven him almost crazy.

He scratched his body desperately and rolled to the ground in pain...

Zhao Mingde almost jogged all the way to the West Garden. As soon as he entered the yard, he saw Changshun dozing off on the steps.

He immediately walked over and asked, "Where is Master Eleven? Is he in the house?"

Changshun woke up and stood up when he heard the sound. Then he scratched his head and replied in a low voice: "Yes, the master seems to have gone to sleep."

Zhao Mingde's face turned even uglier when he heard this. He didn't say anything more and simply walked around Changshun, opened the door and went into the house.

He hurried into the inner room and saw Yun Qingshi lying on the couch with her back to him, wearing only thin clothes. He also noticed the blood-stained clothes on the couch...

Zhao Mingde opened his mouth tremblingly, but in the end he did not disturb Yun Qingshi. He just closed the door and left the room.

Although he had been skeptical before, this moment made Zhao Mingde's heart sink to the bottom.

But Yun Qingshi actually heard Zhao Mingde's voice, but he was too sleepy, so he didn't say anything...

As for Zhao Mingde, after closing the door and leaving the house, he hurried outside again.

Chang Shun looked puzzled and hurriedly followed him to ask, "Eunuch Zhao, what's going on? You look a little off."

Zhao Mingde stopped in his tracks upon hearing the sound and wanted to question Changshun about why he hadn't guarded the West Garden properly, but he clearly had more important matters to attend to. He simply sighed and said, "You! Well, you just stay here and don't go anywhere. We'll talk about other things later."

After saying this, Zhao Mingde hurriedly left Xiyuan.

He had to go and apologize, and he had to quickly send someone to invite Ye Runan over.

However, he didn't expect that when he reached the front yard where the main gate of the palace was located, he ran into Xiao Jiwu who had returned.

Seeing this, Zhao Mingde knelt down without hesitation and kowtowed to apologize: "I am guilty! I failed to manage the palace properly and caused the Eleventh Master to be injured. Please punish me, Your Highness!"

However, Xiao Jiwu ignored Zhao Mingde's meaning at all. He just put on a serious face and used his lightness skills to quickly head towards the West Garden.

Obviously, he already knew what happened.

Zhao Mingde slowly raised his head when he heard Xiao Jiwu leaving. His face was full of worry, but he soon stood up anxiously and continued to invite Ye Runan.

It is most important to see a doctor first.

At this time in the West Garden, Yun Qingshi was still sleeping in a daze.

Xiao Jiwu rushed to the West Garden as fast as he could and pushed the door open without any hesitation.

The first thing he saw after entering the room was the pure blue robe that Yun Qingshi had casually placed on the couch. The large patch of red on it was so dazzling...
