Chapter 240: Ji Yunchuan regretted
Hearing the knock on the door, Ji Yunchuan quickly covered his lower body with the quilt and looked outside nervously.
"who?"
"Cousin, it's me."
"Cousin Moer?"
Ji Yunchuan was a little surprised, but still let Chen Moer in.
When Chen Moer pushed open the door and walked in, her legs were weak and she looked very embarrassed.
Seeing this scene, Ji Yunchuan felt very strange and asked a few questions casually.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you walking so weakly?"
“These past few days, I have been locked up in the woodshed by Shen Ningyuan. I haven’t had enough to eat for several days. She only let me out tonight.”
"So, you're hungry?"
Chen Moer nodded, "Yes, I'm hungry."
Ji Yunchuan paused, then continued to ask: "Why did Shen Ningyuan suddenly lock you up?"
"No reason."
Chen Moer didn't want to say too much about this matter.
Then he lowered his gaze to Ji Yunchuan's lower body and asked, "How many toes did he cut off from you?"
“…”
Ji Yunchuan was silent for a moment, but still said truthfully: "Ten."
"Sure enough, it's just as I thought."
"You know him well enough to know from the beginning that he would chop off ten of my toes."
Chen Moer nodded, "Yes."
"Then why didn't you tell me earlier?" Ji Yunchuan asked anxiously in a deep voice.
“I was locked up in the woodshed by Shen Ningyuan, how could I remind you?” Chen Moer raised her eyebrows and asked back: “Besides, who told you to be so stupid as to go against his wishes and expose your fake death to return to the Ji family?”
"If I don't come back, the Ji family will be controlled by that bastard!" Ji Yunchuan said gritting his teeth.
"So what?" Chen Moer snorted coldly, "Cousin, you are really confused. Compared with the future merits of following the dragon, the title of the Ji family is nothing."
“…”
Ji Yunchuan was left speechless.
He now realizes this.
But it was too late, he had already returned to the Ji family.
Frowning, Ji Yunchuan asked in a deep voice: "What should we do now? It has already happened. My toes have been chopped off by him!"
Ji Yunchuan became more and more angry as he spoke, and he even lifted the quilt.
Seeing the bloody pair of feet on the bed, Chen Moer was not surprised at all.
It seems that I'm used to it.
"At the beginning, I reminded you not to go against his wishes, but you never took my words seriously." Chen Moer said faintly.
Ji Yunchuan became even more anxious, "Chen Moer, are you teaching me a lesson?"
"I don't want to hear any more of your preaching now. Can you please shut up?"
Chen Moer frowned, "Okay, I won't say anything, I'm here to bandage your wound."
After saying that, Chen Moer walked straight forward.
"Get out! I don't need you to bandage me!" Ji Yunchuan roared.
Chen Moer immediately stood still and looked at Ji Yunchuan with a cold expression, "Are you sure?"
"If the wound is not treated in time, it may not only be these toes that are damaged, but the entire foot!"
Chen Moer warned in a deep voice.
Ji Yunchuan hesitated for a moment and seemed to be frightened.
He immediately avoided Chen Moer's sight and said, "Okay, then you come and bandage me."
Chen Moer still had no expression on her face. She walked towards Ji Yunchuan and bandaged him patiently.
After a simple debridement, Chen Moer began to apply medicinal powder on Ji Yunchuan's feet.
As soon as the powder touched the wound, Ji Yunchuan screamed in pain.
He asked angrily, "Chen Moer, what medicine did you give me? Why does it hurt so much?"
Chen Moer said calmly, "This is the best medicine for wounds. Although it can't heal your toe, it can make you feel better. You can go to the palace to see the emperor tomorrow."
At this time, Ji Yunchuan was already sweating profusely from the pain.
But after hearing what Chen Moer said, he gritted his teeth and endured it.
"Okay, then go on."
Chen Moer didn't say anything and continued to apply medicine to Ji Yunchuan. Ji Yunchuan just gritted his teeth and endured it.
Finally, Chen Moer finished bandaging Ji Yunchuan and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, rest for a night, and you'll be able to walk tomorrow." Chen Moer said slowly, "If His Majesty wants you to enter the palace, you won't be exposed."
"Okay." Ji Yunchuan gritted his teeth and responded.
Then, Ji Yunchuan suddenly thought of something and asked, "Did Your Highness ask you to come over and bandage my wound?"
Chen Moer shook her head and sneered, "You've been with him for so long, don't you know him? Why would he care about your life or death?"
“…”
Hearing this, Ji Yunchuan felt powerless in his heart.
"Mo'er, although you and I are only cousins, I have always treated you as my own sister. In front of you, there are some things I don't want to hide from you." Ji Yunchuan sighed and said, "I regret surrendering to His Highness."
"You regret it now?" Chen Moer sneered, "If you hadn't disobeyed his wishes and returned to the Ji family, would His Highness have treated you like this?"
"Ji Yunchuan, if I were you, you would never say such things in front of me." Chen Moer reminded again.
Ji Yunchuan took a deep breath and smiled weakly: "Yeah, why would I tell you this? Even if the whole world would betray him, you definitely wouldn't."
"I am asking for trouble by saying these words in front of you."
After finishing speaking, Ji Yunchuan looked at Chen Moer and said seriously: "Sometimes, I really envy His Highness for having such a person who will never betray him."
Chen Moer: “…”
"Cousin, now is not the time to talk about this. The news of your return has spread." Chen Moer frowned and said, "In this case, you are the only survivor of that battle. His Majesty will definitely summon you to the palace to inquire about the situation of the battle."
"You should think about what to say when you see His Majesty tomorrow."
Ji Yunchuan took a deep breath and said slowly: "If Shen Ningyuan is willing to accompany me, that would be great."
"With her here, His Majesty won't make things too difficult for me."
Chen Moer nodded, but still said truthfully: “Even so, Shen Ningyuan will definitely not accompany you.”
Ji Yunchuan frowned, "What about His Highness? Doesn't he have any preparations?"
Chen Moer's face turned cold, and she asked directly: "This happened suddenly, and His Highness didn't even have time to prepare. How do you want him to plan for you?"
Hearing this, Ji Yunchuan felt his eyes go dark, and he said in despair: "Is there nothing I can do? How should I face the accountability of His Majesty when I enter the palace tomorrow?"
"There is a way, but it depends on whether you are willing to do it." Chen Moer said quietly.
Upon hearing this, Ji Yunchuan immediately became anxious and looked at Chen Moer excitedly, "Tell me quickly, what is the solution?"
Chen Moer stared at Ji Yunchuan and said word by word: “Please ask Chen Ningyuan to let her accompany you to the palace.”
