Qian Youxue was taken aback for a moment, then muttered to herself, "Is the Mr. Buyu you mentioned a famous hermit in Xuanwu?"

“Exactly! Here you go. He lives at Xiaoyao Residence in Linhe Lane.” Xuan Mingye smiled slightly, took out a jade pendant from his body, and hung it around Qian Youxue’s neck.

Qian Youxue took it in her hand and examined it carefully. It was a peace pendant without any carvings. The jade pendant was smooth and lustrous, and it was a piece of high-quality jade.

Cough cough...

Xuan Mingye had just been hit by an enemy's hidden weapon, and after enduring the pain for a long time, he finally couldn't hold back and coughed violently. With this cough, black blood gushed out.

"It seems you're really courting death. Your body is in such a state, yet you still want to fight the enemy." Qian Youxue hurriedly reached out and pressed several acupoints on Xuan Mingye's body, then took out two pills she had previously refined and stuffed them into Xuan Mingye's mouth.

Xuan Mingye swallowed it without the slightest hesitation.

This left Qian Youxue dumbfounded. Wasn't this guy afraid that she would poison him?

“If you wanted to make a move, you would have done it already. Now we’re in the same boat, you wouldn’t kill me.” Xuan Mingye smiled slyly. He knew that this woman had no backing in Xuanwu. Now he was her only support, so he gambled that she wouldn’t dare to make a move against him. In addition, there was the safety of the old lady.

All right!

Qian Youxue admitted that someone had seen through her again, but she didn't say much and gestured for him to take off his clothes and lie down on the bed.

To fully understand the specifics of the toxin, she needed to prepare some additional items. Since the exact nature of the toxin in his body couldn't be determined at present, she could only temporarily alleviate the pain it caused him with acupuncture.

Xuan Mingye obediently took off his clothes and lay down on the bed. At first, the pain from the needles made him clench his fists, but after three needles, his whole body relaxed completely. The fighting in the first half of the night had exhausted him, and now that he felt his blood flowing smoothly, he quickly fell asleep.

Seeing his fist slowly loosen, Qian Youxue wiped the sweat from her forehead. It had been a long time since she had used the Kongmiao Needle Technique, and it was proving quite strenuous to use it now.

However, now that she has spiritual power, the effect of using it is significantly better than before, but the speed at which spiritual power is consumed is too fast, and she can hardly keep up.

call……

After administering the last acupuncture needle, she exhaled a deep breath. Seeing that the other person had already fallen asleep, she quickly sat cross-legged and regulated her internal energy. After a full half hour, she finally felt her breathing become much smoother and slightly opened her eyes.

The person in the bed has disappeared, leaving behind a brocade box. Upon opening the box, one finds a thousand-year-old ginseng; a deep breath releases its fragrance.

The fiend is really generous; this stuff, refined into pills, will surely be very effective at replenishing qi. She tossed the ginseng into her spatial storage with obvious delight, let out a big yawn, and lay down to sleep.

Outside the window, Xuan Mingye looked at the little woman with satisfaction, realizing that making a woman happy was something that could bring him joy.

He lowered his head, touched the jade pendant around his neck, and a certain face echoed in his mind, causing his brows to furrow tightly again.

...

Kunning Palace.

The Crown Prince looked anxiously at his mother behind the curtain. He had wanted to say what was on his mind for a long time, but he dared not be too hasty.

The Empress casually sipped the hot tea that had just been served. It was a new type of tea that had just been sent by the Imperial Hospital, which was said to not only beautify the skin but also regulate the spiritual energy in the body.

She never refused such wonderful things. However, she had recently heard that the Emperor had secretly transferred some good items from the Imperial Hospital's warehouse. She had sent people to investigate, but they hadn't found anything.

The only guess is that the emperor gave all the good things to that bastard. His son is now the crown prince, so why is the emperor still so biased?
