Chapter 249
An unknown amount of time had passed, but Shanyue tried her best to adjust her breathing, and finally she had some strength. Fortunately, they had coiled her at the bottom of the tank when they lifted her up, which was just enough for her to reach the top of her head.
She took out the moxibustion needle from the hairpin and sealed the major meridian, then stimulated her own blood vessels. After resting for a while, she took a deep breath and knocked the porcelain plate above.
In an instant, the wine rushed in. Shanyue held her breath and widened the broken hole, then she floated up.
Fortunately, there was not enough time and the two men did not take her out and bury her, otherwise she would have no chance of survival.
She couldn't guarantee that someone would be able to rescue her in time, so she had to save herself first.
When she regained some strength, she picked up a piece of broken porcelain, dug through the lid of the wine jar, and then began to dig the soil.
After finally digging it out, Shanyue was knocked unconscious by someone with a stick before he could even see what was around him.
"The eldest lady of the Lin family is right. This guy really has nine lives. Let's stab him to death with one knife." A servant-like man glanced at Shanyue who had fainted.
"Are you stupid? Lin Zhiyao is no longer the eldest daughter of the Lin family. Why should we offend King Jing for her?" Another person looked around with a shifty look and said in a low voice, "Even if someone is watching us, we can't do this!"
"So what do you say we should do?"
"Just throw him into the river. Whether he lives or dies is none of our business. We can still get away with it!"
"good."
One year later.
In a loft deep in the mountains, a little girl in simple clothes opened the door with a basin of ice cream.
"Master, the ice cream is here. Would you like to have a sip?"
The person on the bed waved his hand and said impatiently, "Take it away."
"Master, you still need to take medicine. How can you do that without eating something?" The little girl was not afraid. Instead, she stepped forward and pulled the quilt off the person on the bed. "The ice cream was stolen from the kitchen by Ling'er. If you don't eat it quickly, it will be gone when Sister Ping'er comes."
"Ah——" The person on the bed rolled several times like a puppy, and then reluctantly sat up holding the quilt.
Ling'er quickly stuffed the ice cream in her hand to her master on the bed, then quickly washed her and carefully applied ointment to her wounds.
Shanyue really wanted to hide. After all, the ointment was very spicy. When she came through, her face was already disfigured. There was a wound on her face that went from her eyebrow to her neck.
And she has lost all her memories of her previous life. It must be because she spent too much time before traveling through time. Ling'er said her name is Shanyue and she is the owner of Luoxue Villa.
Shanyue always felt that there must be something she really wanted to do or someone she really wanted to see, but she couldn't remember it. Ling'er said that it would take some time for her to recover her memory.
The more she thought about it during this period, the more her head hurt, but she could clearly remember that she had traveled through time.
"Don't apply this ointment anymore. It hurts." Shanyue looked at Ling'er with tears in his eyes, trying to influence her.
"There's no room for negotiation on this." Ling'er skillfully applied medicine to Shanyue while moving her ears. Then she quickly stuffed the bowl that Shanyue had finished eating into the cabinet beside the bed.
Then, a cold and beautiful woman wearing a reddish-brown riding suit and armor on her chest walked in. She glanced at Ling'er coldly, then said to Shanyue in a gentle voice, "Master, it's time to take your medicine."
Shanyue was very afraid of this cold and beautiful woman. After all, she had traveled through time and space and was no longer their original master.
Watching Shanyue obediently take the medicine bowl, a trace of sadness and a trace of relief flashed across the cold and beautiful woman's eyes. She turned to Ling'er and said, "If it weren't for the ice cream that can stimulate the medicinal properties, you would be in the torture hall now."
Ling'er lowered her head and knelt silently on the ground without saying a word. Although she was going to be sent to the execution hall, it was worth it since her master had been talking about Binglue for several days.
Seeing Ling'er like this, Shanyue couldn't help but want to plead for mercy, but just as she was about to open her mouth, she was interrupted by Ping'er.
"Master, there are rules in the manor. Even if you plead, it will be useless. Please don't break the rules."
Shanyue could only lower his head and drink the medicine silently. I'm sorry, Ling'er, it's not that I don't want to save you, it's just that I'm scared too!
Seeing Shanyue's frightened look, Ping'er frowned and wanted to explain, but she held back, bowed and left.
"Master, this medicine is very bitter." Ling'er knelt and moved forward, looking around, then took out a small oil-paper bag from her bosom and handed it to Shanyue, "Would you like some dried fruit?"
The master and servant ate the dried fruits secretly.
Ling'er looked at Shanyue's happy face and felt sour and bitter in her heart, but she was afraid that Shanyue would become suspicious, so she could only force a smile on her face.
Shanyue was injured and had been soaking in water for a long time. She still hadn't recovered well after a year. After taking the medicine, she felt a little sleepy. Ling'er tucked the quilt for her and tiptoed out.
In the small building next door, Ping'er was discussing matters with several other managers.
"The situation is tense now. Should we still support King Jing?" One of the managers was a little hesitant.
Ping'er looked at him coldly, her eyes filled with murderous intent. "Even if it means death, I will support King Jing. This is the master's hard work."
Ping'er is in charge of the killers and guards in the manor. She is also the master's chosen candidate for the manor owner. As soon as she opens her mouth, the people below immediately dare not say anything.
"I don't care what you think in your hearts, throw them away. If you dare to betray the master, I guarantee that you will not have a complete body when you die."
Ping'er's words were too sharp, and two older managers were immediately dissatisfied. They slammed the table and stood up, "You are so young, don't speak so viciously!"
As soon as they slammed their hands on the table, the assassins and several other managers behind Ping'er immediately drew their knives. Ling'er even directly stuck a sword into the table. "I have something even more vicious here. Do you want to try it?!"
In the end, the two managers had no choice but to go back in disgrace, but it seemed that they were very unconvinced. After all, Ping'er and the others were women and very young.
Ling'er frowned as she watched them leave. "Sister Ping'er, these two have clearly betrayed us. Shall I go and take care of them tonight?"
Ping'er shook her head. "The master once said that sometimes it's better to keep them than to kill them. Let them deliver the news we want to the Crown Prince, which is more valuable."
"I feel unhappy just looking at them." Ling'er snorted, looking like a bandit leader.
"Now the prince can only rely on the emperor's protection to fight against King Jing. He will definitely make another move. You all should be careful, especially..." Ping'er did not finish the rest of the words. She glanced at the courtyard where Shanyue lived.
Ling'er nodded, but still couldn't help asking, "Sister Ping'er, if the master regains his memory, will he be angry at us for acting on our own?"
