"Am I the kind of woman who can't be given away? Do I need to resort to these crooked methods?" The Empress was immediately displeased, but then she thought that having a fierce battle in broad daylight with a bunch of palace maids and guards waiting outside, racing against time, seemed rather... interesting?
Thinking of this, she coughed lightly: "Is the quiet room you found reliable? Do the people in the temple know about it?"
Seeing that she was indeed interested, Eunuch Lü revealed a hint of satisfaction: "Does Your Highness not trust me to handle things? That quiet room is absolutely safe. The temple will just think it was purchased by a wealthy person and will never think of its connection with the palace."
"That's good," the Empress nodded in satisfaction, while giving him a strange look. "Little Lü, where did you learn all this stuff? You're a eunuch, yet you know quite a lot."
With a fawning smile, Eunuch Lü said, "As long as Your Majesty is well, this servant is fine."
The Empress snorted: "Go ahead and make the arrangements. I can go out to stay a few times these days. I'm just waiting for Lord Zu to return."
"Yes!" Eunuch Lü lowered his head, his heart filled with conflict. On one hand, he didn't want Zu'an to return so soon, but on the other hand, he had a secret expectation.
...
Inside the ice cave of the Great Snow Mountain, Zu An was intently tending to Yu Yanluo, healing her wounds.
He found it strange; had the other party really drawn such a large backlash after the Changxin Palace Lantern was destroyed?
Her internal condition was a complete mess. If she hadn't met him and he happened to be able to heal her with the Primordial Chaos Scripture, she probably wouldn't have recovered for several years and would most likely have suffered long-term effects.
By the way, what happened when her hair suddenly came undone and she actually swelled up a lot?
Uncle Ming could have interrupted his chanting earlier, but he seemed to freeze for some reason.
And he seemed to say something like "You are...", but what exactly was he trying to say?
Just as she was wondering what was going on, Yu Yanluo suddenly let out a soft moan and slowly woke up.
Clearly, his desperate efforts to heal his injuries in a short period of time had been effective.
As soon as Yu Yanluo woke up, she found herself being held in a man's arms, and her expression changed drastically.
Just as he was about to struggle, a voice came from beside him: "Don't move. Your injuries are very serious. I don't want all my efforts to be in vain."
Upon recognizing Zu An's voice, Yu Yanluo's tense body instantly softened, her cheeks flushing: "Thank you, you saved me again."
"Thanks to your help just now," Zu An said with a smile.
Yu Yanluo gradually regained consciousness and hurriedly examined herself, discovering that her injuries were indeed very serious.
It seems that starting it just now was out of necessity... it was indeed too much of a stretch.
She felt increasingly grateful for the timely rescue, but she still couldn't help but whisper, "Why did you use that position?"
Zuan replied, "The main reason was that your injuries were too severe at the time, and the cold air here was also very strange. If you were to sit on the ground, the cold air would easily seep into your body, causing a lifelong ailment. That's why I had to resort to this desperate measure..."
After explaining, he couldn't help but smile: "Is Madam shy?"
Yu Yanluo turned her face away and did not answer him.
Zuan said, "Just now, my contact with the lady under the cold pool was even more intimate than this, so I think this should be fine."
Yu Yanluo snorted: "Your explanation is worse than no explanation at all!"
