Chapter 114 A great general with a strong character!

Although Xihe has been controlling the dosage of the medicine, the time before falling asleep is not easy to endure.

"Little brother, I hope the strange uncle won't beat me when he wakes up?" Xihe thought about what he had just done and finally came to a conclusion.

Indeed... he deserves a beating.

"No." Xiao Mingxuan took a sip of tea and had no intention of saying anything else.

Who is Liu Yuan? How could he not see Xihe's little thoughts?

It’s just that if you don’t say it, I won’t expose it.

Both sides left each other with dignity.

"Xiao Xi'er, why do you have to save him?"

Since meeting Liu Yuan, Xihe has wanted to take him back again and again, without stopping.

Xihe swung her feet and said in a deep voice, "Little brother, I don't want to blame my uncle for staying in Jiangnan. From the moment I met him, Xihe felt that such a person shouldn't live in such a small place, whether it was that iron prison or the vastness of Jiangnan. If I had to explain why, it would probably be the feeling he gave me, a very ethereal thing, which made me feel that such an unrestrained person should be bounded by heaven and earth."

Liu Yuan had a spirit of not admitting defeat. Although he hid the scars beneath his skin with a playful smile, his unintentional sadness still revealed a bit of it.

Xiao Mingxuan smiled knowingly, "You just can't bear to see the pearl covered in dust."

"You could say that. Xihe just wants to make the scale fair." Xihe looked at the scorching sun hanging high outside. "Look, the clouds have dispersed, and the sun has come out."

She couldn't bear to see people with lofty ideals sacrifice themselves just to satisfy the greed and desires of others.

"But how can there be absolute fairness in this world? Class, wealth, fame, too many things divide people into different classes. There are so many unfair things, how can you take care of them all?" Xiao Mingxuan has experienced the ups and downs of life in his youth, and he knows the unwritten default rules of this world very well.

"Then I must do it even more~" The sun outside grew brighter, a ray of light leaking through the window lattice, shining just right on the little girl, casting a layer of golden light. "As a princess, I enjoy the offerings of the people, so naturally I have to consider them. As you said, there are too many injustices in this world, and I simply can't handle them all, but I can save some people within my power. For every person I save, there will be less injustice in the world. This is my duty as a princess, and it is... the belief I have always upheld."

It has never changed in this life or the past.

Liu Yuan happened to wake up at this moment. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled and cried out loudly, "Ouch, it hurts so much, little bastard, haven't you given me the injection yet?"

Interrupted by Liu Yuan, both of them forgot what they were going to say.

Xihe glanced at the hourglass next to her and immediately jumped down from the other side, "Here it comes~"

"Princess, the medicine is here." It was Yunhui's voice outside the door.

Xihe was worried about others, so he asked Yunhui to get the medicine secretly.

"Okay, thank you Sister Yunhui, you should go and have a rest~"

While Xihe was busy pulling out the needle, Xiao Mingxuan stood up and took the medicine bowl from Yunhui.

Yun Hui did not go in, but only replied at the door, "Yes, I understand."

After removing the needle, Liu Yuan put on his clothes and sat up. He took the medicine and drank it all in one gulp, but almost vomited it out.

"Little Ancestor, did you deliberately put very bitter herbs in it?"

Liu Yuan felt his tongue was numb and bitter, and a wave of bitterness rushed into his heart, almost making him feel dizzy.

Xihe chuckled and refused to admit it, "No, it's just an ordinary medicine, weird uncle, you have to believe me~"

It looks harmless, like a grand white lotus.

“…”

Liu Yuan couldn't bear the pain anymore, so he snatched the fruit that Xiao Mingxuan had just got and bit it without thinking.

“Ouch!”

Liu Yuan spat it out, tears almost bursting out.

So sour!

Xiao Mingxuan was stunned, still not coming to his senses. After a moment, he chuckled in a very disrespectful manner, "This is what I want to throw away."

"Why didn't you say so earlier!" Liu Yuan was roaring on the surface and crying in his heart.

Xiao Mingxuan shrugged helplessly, "Did you give me a chance to speak?"

Liuyuan: "..."

"I really think you two brats have a grudge against me." Liu Yuan leaned against the side weakly, "And we even discussed it beforehand."

I swear to God, although Xiao Mingxuan had some intention of punishing Liu Yuan, he never did it. What happened just now was purely an accident.

Xihe pursed her lips tightly, trying not to smile, and it was extremely difficult to hold back.

After a while, he said, "Uncle Weird, try to circulate your internal energy to see if your meridians are still blocked."

Liu Yuan suddenly became alert and sat up cross-legged.

But after a few breaths, he opened his eyes again, his eyes full of surprise, "Little guy, how did you do it?"

All the broken meridians in his body were reconnected, and there was no resistance in the flow of his internal energy.

"The secret of heaven cannot be revealed. You can guess~" Seeing that Liu Yuan was fine, Xihe put away the needle and put the needle bag back into the box. "The meridians have been connected. I can't do anything else. You can only rely on yourself. I will give you the prescription later. Buy the medicine and drink it yourself. You need to drink it for a full year."

Xihe only knows medicine and knows nothing about martial arts, so she can't be of much help.

But now that the meridians are healed and the foundation is solid, the rest of the things will be easy to handle.

Liu Yuan got off the couch, put away his playful smile, and bowed respectfully to Xihe, "I thank Princess Zhaoyuan!"

Such a big scene actually frightened Xihe and made her shrink back a little, "No need, General Liu, just live well."

This was the first time Xihe formally addressed Liu Yuan.

At this moment, the other person was not the weird uncle who had been playing with her all the way, but Tianshuo's iron-willed general Liu Yuan.

Liu Yuan was driven away by Xihe with satisfaction, carrying the prescription.

The little girl stayed with Xiao Mingxuan instead.

Xiao Mingxuan didn't understand what was going on and asked, "Don't you have to go back and have dinner with your sister?"

Because she hadn't brought Zhao Siyuan with her on her last trip to Dafeng Village, Xihe was given a good beating upon her return. From then on, Xihe was ordered to bring Zhao Siyuan delicious food every day as an apology.

"Hey, little brother, why are you bringing up such a topic?" Seeing that it was almost noon, Xihe showed no intention of going back. This was because their last adventure had inspired Zhao Siyuan's adventurous spirit. He actually ran out to catch thieves on the street, striving to have a glorious achievement. This time, Xihe escaped a disaster. "Little brother, please stretch out your hand so that I can see it."

The little girl stared at Xiao Mingxuan with a smile and motioned him to show his wrist.

Xiao Mingxuan's eyes narrowed slightly, his body moved slightly, his mind turned over and over, thinking: "Could it be that the little girl knows something?"

"Want to take my pulse?" Xiao Mingxuan looked normal, but his hands hidden under his sleeves were slightly sweaty.

"It's just a good opportunity to take a look together." Xihe replied casually, as if it was really just a spur of the moment decision.

Xiao Mingxuan took a sip of tea, his expression unclear, and said, "No, I don't feel uncomfortable."

He knew a little about the little girl's medical skills.
