Chapter 50: It is your blessing to carry me on your back!
The black market is dimly lit, the roads are complicated, and the ground is slippery.
Ruan Yunsheng accidentally fell when he was chasing after him just now.
I was so tense before that I didn't pay attention to it, but now that I'm relaxed, the pain is suddenly unbearable.
She has been spoiled since childhood, and has never suffered any hardship under the careful care of her parents and brothers.
Whenever I have a slight headache or fever, or even if I accidentally cut my finger with a needle-sized cut, there are countless people who will come to ask how I am.
So when she focused her attention on her feet, the pain was so severe that she could hardly stand.
When Xie Yan saw Ruan Yunsheng's painful expression, the look in his eyes instantly became panic.
He looked at Ruan Yunsheng anxiously, his voice trembling a little: "Princess, what's wrong with you? Are you hurt somewhere? Tell me, where does it hurt?"
Xie Yan glanced at the guards behind him and asked in a cold voice, "What's going on?"
Han Ying and Mo Ying quickly knelt down and apologized: "We deserve to die! Just now when the princess was chasing us, I accidentally fell."
Ruan Yunsheng held Xie Yan's arm with one hand, lifted her left foot, and said delicately, "My foot hurts..."
Xie Yan looked around and immediately helped Ruan Yunsheng walk to a stone a few steps away. He took off his cloak and placed it on the stone, then carefully helped Ruan Yunsheng sit down.
"Come sit down here first."
Ruan Yunsheng frowned and couldn't help but blame Xie Yan, "It's all your fault. Why did you run so fast? Even this princess can't catch up with you!"
"I'm sorry. It's all my fault."
Xie Yan was also extremely regretful. He bent his knees and squatted, carefully picking up Ruan Yunsheng's left foot.
When Ruan Yunsheng's foot was moved like this, she felt a piercing pain immediately, so much pain that she almost cried!
She slapped Xie Yan in the face with a conditioned reflex and yelled at him coquettishly: "What are you doing!"
The slap was so loud and crisp that several secret guards in the distance heard it and immediately turned their heads, pretending to look around to see if there were any other suspicious people.
But Xie Yan didn't care about being beaten at all.
Shengsheng's hands are fragrant and soft, how painful could it be to be hit by her?
The fact that Shengsheng can hit people shows that he taught her well and she listened to what he said before, which is a good thing.
At the same time, he felt a little depressed. Xie Huaiye had really gotten away with it before!
Xie Yan couldn't help but remind him: "Next time you hit someone, don't do it yourself."
Ruan Yunsheng couldn't hear anything now, "Stop touching me! It hurts, it hurts..."
Xie Yan carefully held Ruan Yunsheng's ankle and said in a hoarse voice, "Let me check you first."
Ruan Yunsheng had never suffered such pain before. His eyes were red from the pain. "Is my leg broken?"
"No." Xie Yan comforted Ruan Yunsheng, but he was so worried that his fingers were shaking. He took off Ruan Yunsheng's shoes and socks very carefully.
Ruan Yunsheng grabbed her skirt, lowered her head to look, and said pitifully: "What's wrong? Is there a broken bone? It hurts so much... I want Fourth Brother to come back..."
If Fourth Brother were here, he would never let her suffer so much!
Hearing Ruan Yunsheng cry out in pain, Xie Yan's heart broke.
His Shengsheng has never suffered any hardship since she was a child, but he always hurts her.
Xie Yan carefully pinched Ruan Yunsheng's ankle with his fingers, checked her bones, breathed a sigh of relief, and then helped her put on her shoes and socks.
"Fortunately, the bone is fine, just sprained."
Ruan Yunsheng looked at Xie Yan, the culprit, angrily and muttered unhappily, "Every time I'm with you, this princess becomes very unlucky!"
Xie Yan's eyes were dim. He really hadn't taken good care of Shengsheng.
His voice was hoarse: "I'm sorry..."
Ruan Yunsheng snorted coldly: "Will saying sorry be of any use?"
She sulked for a while and said coquettishly, "Turn around."
Xie Yan's Adam's apple rolled and he turned his back to her.
After a while, a warm and soft hand pressed on his shoulder. Ruan Yunsheng slowly lay on his back and said arrogantly, "Carry this princess back!"
She didn't care whether Xie Yan was sick or not. Her feet hurt so much that she didn't want to walk at all.
The warm and soft jade pressed against Xie Yan, and the back of his ears instantly turned red. He said in a hoarse voice: "Okay..."
His whole body was stiff. He carefully carried Ruan Yunsheng on his back and slowly walked towards the exit.
Although Xie Yan did not refuse to carry her, Ruan Yunsheng still felt unhappy.
At this moment, she noticed the red spots behind Xie Yan's ears.
She snorted in her heart: Just carrying her on her back made her ears turn red with anger. Xie Yan must be very dissatisfied with being ordered around by her like this.
However, she had Xie Yan's life-saving medicine in her hand, so no matter how unwilling Xie Yan was, he had to endure it.
She hooked a strand of Xie Yan's black hair with her fingers and pulled it, snorting coldly as a warning: "It is a blessing for you to carry this princess on your back! Even if you feel dissatisfied, you have to endure it!"
Xie Yan was caught off guard when Ruan Yunsheng grabbed his hair. He immediately felt half of his body numb, a muffled sound came out of his throat, and his steps staggered slightly.
Ruan Yunsheng was so frightened that she hugged Xie Yan's neck tightly, wrapping her whole body around him like an octopus, and shouted in shock: "Xie Yan, be careful! If you dare to deliberately hurt me, when my second brother comes back, I will let him break your legs!"
Xie Yan tried to calm his rapid breathing and said in a low voice: "No."
Ruan Yunsheng huffed, "I don't think you'd dare!"
Although Xie Yan carried her steadily throughout the rest of the journey without any problems, Ruan Yunsheng was still dissatisfied.
"Hey, why are you so cold, like ice?"
Xie Yan said hoarsely: "It's my fault. I froze the princess."
Xie Yan carried Ruan Yunsheng back to the ground, got on the carriage, and helped her sit down carefully.
Ruan Yunsheng leaned against the car wall, frowning and enduring the pain.
At the same time, he was thinking to himself: Now that it has been confirmed that the Sun and Moon Jade Bi is indeed in the Taiwei Mansion, the most urgent task is to find the jade bi as soon as possible.
Logically speaking, it would be safest for General Sun to send people to steal the Sun and Moon Jade Disk and destroy it.
However, the Sun and Moon Jade Bi is a treasure, said to bring prosperity to the family and ward off disasters. The Taiwei Mansion is very particular about feng shui, so it is understandable that Taiwei Sun was reluctant to destroy the jade bi.
Since he couldn't bear to part with it, he would most likely place the jade disc in the feng shui spot of the mansion, which is the seemingly inconspicuous attic!
But the last time she broke into the study in the Taiwei Mansion, Taiwei Sun must have been alert, and there must have been a lot of guards in the mansion.
Therefore, sending ordinary guards from the Marquis' Mansion would not be safe enough. If they alarmed General Sun, he would move the jade disc to another place or even destroy it. Then, my eldest brother's guilt would never be cleared.
We need to find an extremely reliable person to investigate the Taiwei Mansion.
She looked out through the shaking curtains of the carriage. In two hours, it would be dawn.
Unfortunately, I don't have time to meet Chuwu tonight...
Xie Yan looked at Ruan Yunsheng. Seeing that she hadn't spoken, he asked worriedly, "Does your foot hurt a lot? Just bear with it. We'll be home soon."
Ruan Yunsheng came back to his senses and glanced at Xie Yan.
She had promised before that if Xie Yan could provide the exact clue of the Sun and Moon Jade Bi, she would give him the Hanxiang Feiyun Grass.
Xie Yan didn't know what strange disease he had. When he carried her on his back just now, his body was as cold as ice, without any warmth of a living person at all.
In order to get the medicine, it was not easy for the old man to carry her all the way.
Thinking of this, Ruan Yunsheng couldn't help but scold Xie Yan again, "You are such a blockhead! You've become stupid from studying!"
Knowing that he needed the Hanxiang Feiyun grass as a medicine guide, he actually watched Bai Ruowei prepare to make the Hanxiang Feiyun grass into spices in Zuiyu Tower that day.
No wonder the story goes that Prince Duan became the emperor by just sitting back and reaping the benefits.
Xie Yan was scolded for no reason, but he felt secretly relieved in his heart.
Shengsheng still has the energy to curse, so it shouldn't be a big deal...
