Without a second thought, Xuan Yuanzhan said, "Your silver needles were just removed. What are you going back for now? You definitely need to fully recover before going back!"
She shouldn't move in her current state. Besides, although the Holy King's Mansion may not have less medicine than the bamboo forest, it certainly doesn't have as many people who understand medicine as there are in the bamboo forest.
It would definitely be safer for her to stay in the bamboo forest, where her master and uncles could help her recuperate.
Su Xuening knew he would be worried about her health: "But it's not good for us to stay away from the capital like this, especially now that Mother Consort is with us in the bamboo forest."
It wouldn't matter if it were just the mother alone, but isn't there also the Emperor?
My mother has been living with them in the bamboo forest for almost four months now; I'm afraid the Emperor must have already had his complaints.
Xuan Yuanzhan knew exactly what Su Xuening meant: "It's alright, don't worry about him."
Although that person asked him every day when Bai Fuya would return, and he was tired of hearing it, Bai Fuya was not his concubine, and she had the right to freedom!
Of course, that person only dared to ask, and didn't dare to really interfere in their lives.
Su Xuening smiled meaningfully. It was only because Xuan Yuanpeng doted on his mother and Xuan Yuanzhan that he allowed them to stay outside for so long.
"We agreed to go back after removing the silver needles. We can't just give birth here and cause gossip."
In fact, Su Xuening was very willing to stay in the bamboo forest, but she was worried that if she really gave birth to her child in the bamboo forest, she would probably be subjected to a lot of slander.
The baby was conceived at an inappropriate age to begin with, and that's precisely why we mustn't give those people a chance to smear us. Otherwise, not only will she suffer, but the baby will also be wronged.
Xuanyuan Zhan hadn't really thought that far ahead. After hearing this, he thought for a moment and said, "Then let's wait until you've rested for a while longer before we go back to the Prince's Mansion. Bai Fuya has already found a midwife at the Prince's Mansion, and everything for the delivery is ready, so there's no need to worry about the delivery itself."
Even if Ning'er gives birth at the Prince's residence, her master and uncle can still pick her up, so there's no fear that anything might happen to her during childbirth.
"Then let's wait another half month." Su Xuening deliberately gave him more time, afraid that he would be worried.
Who knew that half a month was still not enough for Xuan Yuanzhan: "I will rest for another month and then return to the Holy King's Mansion."
Anyway, there are still three months until delivery, so going back in another month is still possible.
He could only feel at ease once he was certain that she had truly recovered.
"Okay." What else could Su Xuening say? She could only agree helplessly.
However, it would be nice to stay in the bamboo forest for another month. With him, his mother, his master, his uncle, and Yun'an by his side, life would be easy and leisurely, which couldn't be better.
Xuan Yuanzhan's cultivation technique has broken through to the sixth level, and it's time for him to recuperate.
Now that Master is living in the bamboo forest, it will be more convenient for Master to treat his body for the next month, saving him the trouble of traveling back and forth.
So for the past month, Su Xuening spent most of her time lying down. Not only did Xuan Yuanzhan not let her get up, but Bai Shi also couldn't bear to let her get up.
Whatever she wanted to eat or drink, Madam Bai had Granny Shang deliver it to her room.
If Xuan Yuanzhan and Su Yun'an were there, Su Xuening wouldn't even have to lift a finger; the two of them would be fighting over who would feed her.
However, lying down all the time might not be good for the child, so even though they forbade it, Su Xuening still took an hour every day to go for a walk in the bamboo forest.
As long as Xuan Yuanzhan is around, he will accompany Su Xuening, whether she is eating or taking a walk, he will accompany her in whatever she wants to do.
He dared not let Su Xuening know anything about his own health regimen. He would wait until Su Xuening was asleep before going to his master's guest room to have his master help him with his health regimen.
It has to be said that the Xuanmen method of conditioning the body is extremely painful. It feels like the whole body is being torn apart. After filling in all the medicinal herbs that are beneficial to increasing his internal strength, it is then forcibly stitched back together. The inhuman pain is truly a feeling that makes one wish they were dead!
While Dao Yi was treating Xuan Yuanzhan's body, Pei Luo and You Yi would stand by the window and peek.
"It looks like it's really in pain." You Yi looked at Xuan Yuanzhan's body convulsing in pain and felt his bones starting to ache: "Xuanmen techniques are indeed abnormal. They are not something that ordinary people can practice."
Pei Luo couldn't bear to watch any longer: "This is probably why this kid's internal strength has increased so quickly!"
The Xuanmen sect is different from ordinary sects. Its medical skills are unorthodox, and its martial arts are also extremely unorthodox.
However, despite the unorthodox nature of their medical skills and martial arts, it doesn't mean that those who study them are necessarily wicked. At least the Crane Cry and Heron Whistle he knew were quite upright.
Moreover, he also believed that Xuan Yuanzhan would never turn bad!
Dao Yi quickly finished administering acupuncture to Xuan Yuanzhan, leaving Xuan Yuanzhan alone in the bathtub to absorb the medicinal effects, as was his custom.
He leaned against the doorway, looking at the two lying on the bed, and said, "Are you trying to peep at this kid taking a bath, or are you trying to steal my Xuanmen's exclusive martial arts techniques?"
Youyi's eyes darted around, as if he had an idea. He rubbed his hands together and walked over, whispering, "Um, your Xuanmen technique is quite interesting. Could you teach me too?"
Dao Yi looked at You Yi speechlessly: "You also want to become my disciple?"
“Eh~” Youyi’s face stiffened.
He was indeed interested in this esoteric martial arts technique, but he decided to forget about becoming an apprentice!
He's at most on the same generation as him, so what's the big deal about him becoming his apprentice?
Before Youyi could refuse, Daoyi added, "But I already have a disciple and I'm not taking any more. If you really want to become a disciple, then we'll see if Xuanyuan Zhan is willing to take you on."
...Youyi's face instantly darkened, and he was so angry that his face turned green.
Hey, how dare that brat Lu Shao take advantage of him like this, making him become Xuan Yuanzhan's disciple? Wouldn't that make him his grand-disciple? Can he really accept this loss?
"If you're not going to teach me, then don't. Why are you badmouthing me?" Youyi glared angrily at Daoyi.
Dao Yi wasn't angry, as if he saw through his little scheme: "Don't you want to become a disciple?"
Before Youyi could speak, Daoyi looked at Pei Luo and said, "Do all the disciples of your Hundred Flowers Valley like to get something for nothing like this?"
Pei Luo didn't even glance at You Yi before saying disdainfully, "We don't have a disciple like that in Hundred Flowers Valley."
Youyi: "..."
Dao Yi was overjoyed: "Let's go, this kid will take a while, let's go play the next game!"
Without saying a word, Pei Luo followed Dao Yi.
"Senior brother..." Youyi followed him with a pitiful expression.
