Fortunately.
"Let’s go."
Seeing Hu Xiao’s expression, it was rare for Qin Shuo to not continue tangling with him, he only used a cold blade technique on Zhao Qiyan when he was on his way out.
"Empress! What’s wrong with you!? "
When Zhi Lan turned to leave, Zhi Lan anxiously ran in. When she was at the entrance with Zhao Qiyan, she seemed to have heard some unusual noises, and she was naturally rushing to go and see Hu Xiao.
His face was a lot redder than before, but he always wore a somewhat pale face. This redness was somewhat abnormal!
"Zhi Lan? "You came at the perfect time. Just now, I was in the path of His Majesty. Do you know how to treat acupoints?"
Seeing Zhi Lan run in, as if she had seen hope, Hu Xiao, who was still a little lost just a moment ago, immediately looked towards Zhi Lan with sparkling eyes.
"I’m sorry, Empress, this servant won’t."
Zhi Lan felt very uncomfortable hearing this. This was already the second time that the Empress had been poked, but she could not learn how to remove the acupoints as usual!
"Forget it, I really want to hear that voice of Zhao Qiyan. Zhi Lan, you go and ask Zhao Qiyan. "
Hearing that, Zhi Lan’s slightly depressed mood immediately improved. After agreeing, she immediately ran out the door, afraid that Zhao Qiyan would leave if he was too slow.
The moment he stepped out of the door, he saw Zhao Qiyan, who was still standing at the doorway, and could not help but feel even more baffled. Since Zhao Qiyan was the Great General of his majesty, it was natural that he would follow Qin Shuo around the clock.
"Miss Zhi Lan."
Zhao Qiyan who had been waiting at the door for a long time saw Zhi Lan coming out and quickly followed him.
"Does General Zhao know how to clear acupuncture points?"
Hu Xiao, who was originally headed for Zhao Qiyan, and the one who was inside the house, who didn’t know what to do, clenched his teeth and tried to bargain with Zhao Qiyan.
"Miss Zhi Lan, when His Majesty left earlier, he ordered me to look after Empress carefully. Furthermore, the acupuncture points that were locked up for four hours will automatically be opened. Miss Zhi Lan need not be in such a hurry."
"What?" It’s still two hours away! "
If she had stayed in place without moving for two hours, Hu Xiao would not have been able to meditate for a long time, but now she was forced to stay for another two hours. Suddenly, she felt like she did not dare face Hu Xiao.
"Zhi Lan..."
"Is there any way to clear the acupoints?"
Waving her hand, Zhi Lan felt that she did not want to talk to this man anymore. She only knew that if Hu Xiao were to continue like this, then her heart would definitely ache for Hu Xiao, and Hu Xiao’s revenge in the future would be the most terrifying.
"Forgive me for being powerless."
Zhao Qiyan was also a bit helpless. After all, this was an order from his majesty; even if he didn’t want to, he wouldn’t dare to do anything.
"Zhao Qiyan, you!"
Of course, Zhi Lan knew that being unable to do anything was a lie, and it was not like she did not see Zhao Qiyan opening or clearing his acupoints previously, but she did know that had learned this from him!
He hated himself for being useless, and hated Zhao Qiyan for being so loyal.
She turned around and blocked Zhao Qiyan, who also wanted to come in, from entering the house to take a look. Hu Xiao could naturally hear the conversation going on outside clearly, and wanted to add fuel to the flames of the conversation between the two, but seeing that Zhao Qiyan was so calm, he decided to leave the matter at that.
Zhi Lan hesitated to stand by Hu Xiao’s side for a long time, until Hu Xiao began to become impatient.
"Enough, don’t just stand there."
Hu Xiao felt that she was truly a little too righteous, after all, it was rather difficult for her right now. She was the one who had been hit by acupuncture, but she actually still had to comfort her personal maid, which was an extremely mystical thing.
"Empress."
Her previous plan of learning the acupuncture points that Zhi Lan had thrown aside was once again brought up on her schedule again.
It was fine to say that it was hard to bear in four hours, but it was fine to lie in bed for a while bored. After clearing up on what he had been thinking when he arrived, it quickly passed by.
Zhi Lan, who had been waiting at the side, also pinched her fingers and calculated the time. Four hours later, she carefully looked at Hu Xiao, as if she was afraid that Zhao Qiyan had lied to him just now.
"Bada."
Before Zhi Lan could come forward to support Hu Xiao, Hu Xiao struggled to stand on her own, but accidentally fell off the bed in front of Zhi Lan!
"Qin Shuo! Zhao Qiyan! "
This was the first time she fell off the bed in such a shameful manner, and this shame was because of Qin Shuo and Zhao Qiyan! She, Hu Xiao, was not a good person, she would naturally repay favors with revenge. Since Qin Shuo dared to make her suffer for four hours, she would definitely take revenge no matter what.
"Empress, with your current appearance, would it be best for you to return to the government office and rest for a while?"
His legs were weak and it was difficult for him to stand firm. Zhi Lan looked at Hu Xiao who was trying to stand up a few times and anxiously asked.
"Oh, then let’s go."
He remained expressionless as Zhi Lan helped him up from the bed and walked out step by step.
Zhao Qiyan had been waiting at the door for a long time, and upon seeing the two coming out, he anxiously rushed to help.
"Zhao Qiyan, this is the first time I’ve heard that you, Great General Zhao, listen to my orders."
Looking at Zhao Qiyan who followed along with a faint smile on his face, the people who were originally afraid of Hu Xiao became even more afraid.
"Please forgive me, Empress."
He did not dare say anything else, and only attempted to lure Hu Xiao to the carriage that Qin Shuo had specially arranged for him.
"Heh."
She was too lazy to care about it either, if it was in the past, Zhi Lan would probably ask Zhao Qiyan for help, but now, she was forced to do so because she was powerless, causing Empress to lose face in front of her subordinates!
He supported Hu Xiao onto the carriage mechanically while she stood by the side of the carriage, seemingly not wanting to help Hu Xiao get on the carriage.
Hu Xiao curled her lips. She naturally knew why Zhi Lan would act like this, but there were naturally people here who cared about Zhi Lan, so she no longer needed to come watch the commotion.
As expected, after a while, she heard Zhao Qiyan’s somewhat helpless voice, but Hu Xiao, who was in the carriage, actually laughed extremely happily after hearing this person’s words. As it turned out, his coaching of Zhao Qiyan before had no effect at all, if it was in the past, Hu Xiao would probably be disappointed, but now, Hu Xiao was extremely satisfied with the result.
"Scram!" Don’t bother me! "
His actions had become even more serious, even his words were no longer as gentle and considerate as before, and had become extremely fierce.
