"You were able to detect my hidden ailment." The interest in the Prince of Yuan's eyes deepened as he played with her delicate chin. "It seems that Yu Yu was right; you really are the one who can save me."
Mi Shan frowned slightly.
Consort Yu?
She actually said that? Could it really be as people say?
She is skilled in divination and fortune telling.
"Let me tell you, I haven't been sitting in this position securely all these years. There are many people who want my life, both openly and secretly."
"During the most recent hunt in the western suburbs, I was accidentally bumped by a wild boar. Was it more than a dozen times? I can't remember."
"Luckily, I'm lucky! Even if God wanted to take me away, he couldn't!"
King Yuan laughed heartily as he spoke, his voice filled with pride.
Mi Shan's lips twitched unconsciously.
The mighty Mad King was actually killed by a wild boar.
Although the previous life dragged on for some time, it ultimately came to an end.
It's unbelievable that he can still laugh.
If this were recorded in history books, it would be enough to be passed down through the ages.
"Shan'er, when I call you that, I feel closer to you. I know you are skilled in medicine, so heal my wounds. If you can heal me and restore me to my original state, I will grant you anything you desire!"
"Shan'er doesn't want anything. As long as Yuan Lang can live, it will be the greatest fortune for us wives and concubines."
Mi Shan is used to playing the obedient girl; this is an experience she gained over many years in the Mi family.
“I can cure Yuanlang’s illness, but Yuanlang also needs to cooperate with me and take off his mask so that I can observe your condition further.”
She still had something on her mind that she hadn't said.
I have a feeling that the Emperor's injuries are more than just internal ones.
It seemed that some unknown force was intertwined within him, secretly helping him and forcibly prolonging his life.
She wanted to figure it out.
Unexpectedly, Li Shengyuan's dark eyes narrowed, and he refused outright.
A shadow, unseen by anyone, swept across the face beneath the mask.
"I know what you're thinking, but it's none of your business. Don't be curious. Just focus on healing my internal injuries."
Li Shengyuan's tone suddenly turned sinister and cold.
It was very different from when he was smiling, unrestrained, or lazy.
Mi Shan had a gut feeling that this matter was no small thing; this emperor probably harbored a great secret. A secret she was not allowed to investigate.
She wisely refrained from asking any further questions.
Do as he asks, and take out the medicine kit.
The long silver needles gleamed coldly in the flickering candlelight.
She laid the emperor down, her long, black hair cascading down his scarred, tangled chest.
Insert the first needle.
King Yuan let out a muffled groan.
"It will hurt a little."
But only for the moment it pierces the skin.
The needles were deeply embedded in the internal organs, arranged in two neat rows.
It reached near the lower abdomen.
King Yuan got up honestly.
...Mi Shan paused for only a moment before avoiding that spot and continuing to insert the needles.
"Shan'er, don't be surprised. I know you don't want to, and I won't force you."
"But if I didn't have the slightest reaction to a woman as beautiful as you in front of me, I wouldn't be a man."
Li Shengyuan was very confident in himself. "If Shan'er changes her mind and wants to play in the water with me, I can..."
"No need!" Mi Shan refused without the slightest hesitation, her reply exceeding her own expectations.
After answering, he was shocked to realize that the person he was facing was an emperor.
"Your Majesty is deeply grateful for your kindness. However, in order for Your Majesty's health to recover more quickly, it is best to abstain from sexual relations for a period of time."
Mi Shan wasn't just making things up.
He indulged in excessive sexual activity.
My body is already severely depleted.
They were only able to live because of that eerie, malevolent aura.
Black and red energy swirled around the silver needles, intertwining and gleaming with a strange light.
The emperor lay flat, completely unaware. After half an hour, Mi Shan removed the needles and stood up.
"Shan'er, are you planning to stay and keep me company tonight, or go back?"
Li Shengyuan sat up, thoughtfully stroking his chin.
Mi Shan frowned, finding his question rather strange.
He grinned wickedly and said, "I'm going to abstain from beautiful women for a while. In that case, I'll treat myself tonight!"
"I plan to invite a few concubines to spend a night of indulgence with me! If Shan'er doesn't mind, she may stay to the side..."
"Your Majesty, I take my leave!"
Mi Shan barely gave him a chance to continue speaking before quickly leaving the Zichen Palace.
She is now the one who can save the emperor's life.
The emperor did not punish her for disrespect, but rather indulged her and let her be.
Mi Shan was shocked to realize that she had come out of the Emperor's bedchamber completely naked when she arrived outside the palace!
His face instantly turned pale and lost its color.
He tore off a bright yellow veil that was everywhere, wrapped it around himself, and walked quickly along the path.
He thought that if he could meet a palace maid, he would ask her to lend him a piece of clothing.
To their surprise, the place was deserted, without a single person in sight.
It turns out that when the emperor didn't like to sleep, there were too many people guarding nearby, so he only ordered Xu Ninghai to guard the window outside the palace.
The rest of the guards patrolled outside the Taiji Palace.
When Mi Shan came out, she didn't run into Xu Ninghai. She walked all the way, and the cool night wind made her shiver. Walking barefoot on the cobblestone path was like torture.
But compared to watching him engage in sexual acts with other concubines in his own palace.
Mi Shan still firmly believes in the choice she made.
Just when she was feeling desperate, wondering if she was going to keep walking out of Taiji Palace like this?
Suddenly, a secret conversation came from the bushes.
It sounds like a man.
