Chapter 87: Inseparable
The moon gradually hid in the clouds, and there was no sound on the street outside. Only then did Xiao Yihan reluctantly let her go.
"Be good, I'll let Mo Yu take you back. Don't stay outside alone for too long since it's getting late."
"Go back early. I'll go to the Imperial Hospital to look for you tomorrow."
At the most intimate moment, the aloof Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace was even reluctant to call himself "Gu" to the little girl.
He spoke softly and was very doting.
Shen Yuning nodded, very obediently, "Okay, Master, please go back early, I, I will miss you."
Her little face is flushed red, and she is shy when talking about sweet words, but... she dares to say it.
Xiao Yihan's eyes darkened, and he hugged her again, "Dear, me too. I miss Ning'er very much, and I miss her now."
His eyes were burning and tender.
A top martial artist, the leader of the Meishan School, and the most honorable Crown Prince of the East Palace in the Dayu Kingdom, has now turned into a pure and innocent boy and is extremely attached to Shen Yuning.
He loved her so much that he couldn't stand the slightest teasing.
The little girl's word "want" made the evildoer Xiao Yihan so excited that he couldn't control himself.
In the end, he didn’t know how long Shen Yuning coaxed him or kissed him actively before he reluctantly let her go back.
"I'm leaving?" His gaze was scorching.
"Yeah!" Her little face flushed, and she was shy and obedient.
Then, the two of them had clearly said goodbye, said good-bye, and walked off in different directions...
But in an instant, they both turned around and hugged each other again.
"Ning'er, I still miss you very much, what should I do?"
"Then hold me for a while longer, because I do too."
What happened next, you can imagine, a kiss, a deep kiss.
Mo Yu was waiting anxiously from a distance. His legs were numb from standing and he even dozed off, but his master still refused to come out.
He muttered to himself: “I hope Miss Shen will marry my master soon, so that I can have an easier time.”
He watched Shen Yuning get on the carriage under Mo Yu's escort, then turned around and rode his horse to the East Palace.
At the same time, not far away, a pair of hateful eyes were staring at him almost murderously.
Chu Linyuan's face was ferocious, and his fingers were almost pinched to bleed.
He saw everything that happened between Shen Yuning and Xiao Yihan just now.
It's ridiculous that they are all top martial arts masters, but they didn't even detect his presence. It shows how passionately they kissed!
Chu Linyuan was jealous and hateful, and wanted to kill them both.
"Why? Why would my Ning'er betray me?"
"She's obviously mine. I cleared all obstacles for her and killed Wang, but she wants to be with Xiao Yihan?"
"Have all these years of waiting been in vain?"
On the other side, Shen Yuning seemed to have no impression of Chu Linyuan, but here he had already held a grudge against the little girl.
"They must die, all of them must die, one by one!"
Chu Linyuan's eyes were bloodshot and his body was trembling slightly.
Seeing Xiao Yihan heading towards the East Palace, he followed him stealthily.
He was filled with rage and had no place to vent it. Now he had no time to think. He had only one thought: kill him, kill Xiao Yihan, and Shen Yuning would be his!
She had been kissed by Xiao Yihan, she had been touched by Xiao Yihan. He would kill Xiao Yihan first, and then punish her.
Chu Linyuan touched the poison in his sleeve, his face twisted.
He is very powerful and is almost on par with Xiao Yihan. With the help of poison, he is confident that he can succeed today.
Xiao Yihan was riding on the horse, his mind full of Shen Yuning's pretty and charming little face, but when he turned a corner, he suddenly felt something strange.
The man was extremely skilled in martial arts and hid himself very well, but he was still discovered by him.
In order not to disturb the people in the capital, he quickened his whip, turned into a small road, and then entered the woods.
Chu Linyuan followed without thinking.
He was wearing a nightgown and had a black mask covering his face. Who could tell that he was the prime minister of the current dynasty?
With a "whoosh" sound.
He took advantage of Xiao Yihan's unpreparedness and quickly threw a poisoned dart out.
The dart was tainted with a deadly poison. Once it touched a wound, it would cause a person to die in agony. This showed how much he hated it.
Xiao Yihan dodged with lightning speed, jumped off his horse, and quickly returned the attack with a fierce palm wind.
Chu Linyuan's pupils shrank sharply, and he barely avoided it.
Oh no, how could Xiao Yihan’s martial arts skills be so high?
He remembered the last time they fought on the boat, but he never thought that he had retained his strength that time.
It was too late for Chu Linyuan to react, and he was defeated repeatedly. Fortunately, he had several darts on him to distract Xiao Yihan's attention, otherwise he would have turned into a pool of meat paste.
The two top masters, one retreating and one advancing, even scared the birds in the forest away and caused countless big trees to fall down.
"Ah——" Chu Linyuan was not paying attention for a moment and his mask was almost pulled off by Xiao Yihan.
He scattered a handful of smoke and fled in panic.
Xiao Yihan withdrew his hand instantly and had no intention of chasing after him.
When Mo Yu arrived, he was still slowly tidying up his clothes.
"Your Highness, have you run into the same thief from last time again? Are you injured?"
"I am late in coming to your rescue, Your Highness, and I hope you will forgive me!"
He knelt on the ground with his hands clasped, a look of self-blame on his face.
Xiao Yihan smiled calmly, "No need to be polite. With his skills, he can't hurt me."
"I just deliberately let him go three points, then shot a hidden weapon in his shoulder. I believe that within two months, his arm will be crippled."
"Master?" Mo Yu still didn't understand, and Xiao Yihan continued, "If that thief is really Chu Linyuan, he would have revealed his true identity in two months."
Mo Yu suddenly realized, "This way, it will be easier to investigate the affairs of the court. Master, you are wise!"
——
When Shen Yuning returned to the Shen Mansion, the blush on her face had not yet faded.
Thinking of the ambiguous scene in the alley just now, her heart was still beating wildly.
Xiao Yihan was so handsome, with a perfect body, and he was also overbearing. He hugged her and kissed her without any lightness, as if he wanted to eat her.
Shen Yuning's face flushed, she missed him again.
Those eyes were full of charm, evil and lustful. I really didn't know how he would torture her if she married him in the future.
Shen Yuning's happiness had not lasted long when Xingzhi stumbled in.
"Miss, something bad has happened. The Emperor wants you to come to the palace immediately to discuss an important matter!"
She whispered in his ear, "There's a plague in the capital, and many people have been infected. Even General Pei has been infected, and his life is in imminent danger."
Shen Yuning's pupils shrank, and a bad premonition rose: "Plague? How could there be a plague in the capital?"
She didn't dare to delay, so after saying goodbye to her mother, she rushed to the palace with a few capable medicine boys.
When she arrived at the Imperial Hospital, she found that almost all the imperial doctors were there, and the emperor was sitting on the high hall with a worried look on his face.
Things seemed to be more serious than she had imagined.
Xiao Sheng, who usually remained calm even in the face of a huge crisis, rarely showed this state.
"This epidemic is coming with great force. Many people in the capital have been infected, not only General Pei, but also many soldiers in the Xuanjia Battalion have been infected."
"Also, it's a coincidence that the plague has almost no effect on the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled. It only targets strong men. It seems to be targeting our soldiers!"
Xiao Sheng sighed heavily, "You must think of a way to prepare the antidote within three days, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."
He didn't dare to think about what would happen in the future or how many people would die.
"Report—"
Another eunuch trotted in, "Your Majesty, another soldier has been infected with the disease. His symptoms are the same as General Pei's: high fever, unconsciousness, profuse sweating, and alternating chills and fevers."
After Shen Yuning understood the situation carefully, she didn't even take a break before going to the library with the other doctors.
There are countless medical books there, and they want to look through the ancient texts to see if there is a solution.
At the same time, the medicine boys were already preparing pills made with wild ginseng to distribute to the soldiers in advance to prevent the epidemic.
