This is a manifestation of the king's concern for his husband!
Ying Xixi finally finished feeding Wen Muchen the medicine and was sweating profusely.
After all this trouble, it’s almost dawn.
Ying Xixi stayed until she was sure that Wen Muchen's fever had subsided before returning to her own courtyard to catch up on some sleep.
Before going to bed, she also reminded Sun Lin that if anything happened to Wen Muchen, she must wake her up.
Ying Xixi thought she would sleep soundly since she hadn't slept all night, but she woke up after less than two hours.
After she got up, washed up, ate something quick, and went to see Wen Muchen.
Wen Muchen had woken up, his cheeks and ears were slightly red, and his eyes were a little evasive when he looked at her.
Ying Xixi was puzzled and stepped forward to touch Wen Muchen's forehead. "You don't have a fever, why are your face and ears red?"
As soon as she finished asking, Wen Muchen's inner voice rang in her ears.
How could Wang remain calm? God knows I learned from Lin Lang how Wang fed me the medicine. I was so embarrassed that I had to dig my toes into the ground and almost forgot the pain in my back!
Now I am even embarrassed to face Wang. When I see Wang, I can't help but think of what Lin Lang said about Wang feeding me medicine last night.
Lin Lang’s description was so specific that I could even picture it in my mind!
Doesn't Wang feel ashamed at all? Or has she given other men the same medicine before?]
Thinking of this, the blush on Wen Muchen's face cooled down a little along with his heart.
Ying Xixi: “???”
Then what?
Why did Wen Muchen's expression fade and he stopped muttering in his heart?
"Your fever has subsided this morning and you shouldn't have another fever today. Thank you for shielding me from the arrow last night.
What do you want? As long as it is something that this king can do, this king can agree to it."
Ying Xixi sat down beside the bed and said.
Wen Muchen was feeling a little down.
What does Wang mean by this? Are you trying to draw a line between us?
Ask me what I want, and after satisfying my request, it will be considered as repaying me for saving my life, but I don’t have to come to visit me again in the future?
Is this Wang's plan?】
Ying Xixi held her forehead with her hand. She really didn't expect Wen Muchen to have such a way of thinking.
"Isn't there anything you want?"
Wen Muchen didn't answer, so Ying Xixi asked again.
"I...I don't know."
Wen Muchen really didn't know and forgot to call himself that for a moment.
[What I have always wanted is to kill the king and avenge my family.
But I can't say that I want Wang to commit suicide.
Besides that, I don’t know if there’s anything I want.
It seems that there is nothing for the time being. 】
Ying Xixi listened to Wen Muchen's inner thoughts and finally heard an important clue.
family.
She knew before that Wen Muchen claimed to be an orphan, but now Wen Muchen mentioned his family.
This means that she might have killed Wen Muchen's family in the past, so Wen Muchen wanted to kill her to avenge his family.
But she searched through all the original owner's memories and still had no such impression.
Not to mention killing people, the original owner had never even killed an animal with his own hands.
Even though the original owner had been to the border battlefield a few years ago, he never went on the battlefield, but only commanded the battle in the tent.
But Wen Muchen looked so confident that he didn't seem to be wrong.
Could it be that she really had killed Wen Muchen's family, but simply had forgotten the memory?!
Is this possible?
Ying Xixi pursed her lips with a complicated expression, "If you don't know for now, just think about it. I can always fulfill my promise.
You can tell me when you have made up your mind."
Wen Muchen hummed.
"Wen Muchen, why did you block the arrow for me last night?"
Ying Xixi thought about it and asked.
It was confirmed that Wen Muchen had nothing to do with the assassination ordered by the Sixth Princess last night.
Then Wen Muchen shielding her from the arrows would not be a self-directed act.
But there must be a reason after all.
Wen Muchen clearly wanted to kill her to avenge his family. Such a good opportunity appeared last night. Wen Muchen could have watched her being stabbed by an arrow with his own eyes.
But Wen Muchen happened to block an arrow for her.
Wen Muchen's lips were trembling, and his expression was confused and dazed.
[Actually, I don’t know either. I wanted to kill the king in the first place. I could really watch the king being pierced by the arrow.
Even if she didn't die, she would have been badly injured. For me, this should be a happy thing.
But I happened to block an arrow for Wang. At that time, I didn't even think clearly about what to do, and my body blocked the arrow for Wang faster than my brain.
My body seems to have a mind of its own...]
Wen Muchen said this in his heart, but he suppressed his emotions on his face, raised his eyebrows and smiled at Ying Xixi.
"Because I love you so much, I can't bear to see you get hurt."
Wen Muchen told so many lies that he didn't even realize when his lies became the truth.
"I see. Then I should thank you Xinyue for saving my life. You should have a good rest."
After saying this, Ying Xixi stood up and prepared to leave. She had to let the secret guards continue the investigation.
But Wen Muchen reached out and grabbed her wrist, looking up at her eagerly.
"Can't the king stay and keep me company?"
As he finished speaking, he took a deep breath and frowned, "The wound hurts so much! King, am I going to die soon?! If I die, I will never see you again!"
Ying Xixi: “….”
If the acting was better she would have believed it.
She lifted the quilt and took a look at the bandaged area on Wen Muchen's back. There was no bleeding, so there was no problem.
"You're fine, the doctor said you'll recover after resting for a while.
I have something else to deal with, I'll come and accompany you once I'm done, just be good."
When Ying Xixi said the last four words, her voice was unspeakably gentle, and she even reached out and touched Wen Muchen's head.
Wen Muchen let go of his hand in a daze, not even noticing when Ying Xixi left.
Lin Lang on the side covered his mouth and laughed uncontrollably.
How could his husband be so stupid?
Ying Xixi had no idea how much of an impact her deliberate words had on Wen Muchen.
She came to the yard and called out the secret guard.
“Go and investigate whether any of Wen Muchen’s family members were among those who died in the war between Beitong Kingdom and our Silver Phoenix Dynasty a few years ago.
Investigate whether Wen Muchen is from Beitong Country."
Ying Xixi whispered.
The secret guard was the person Ying Xixi had sent to investigate Wen Muchen's background last time. She was a little confused when she heard this and asked bravely.
"Wang, do you suspect that Wang Fu is from Beitong Kingdom?"
“Well, try to investigate it as carefully as possible. Although the king and King Chao worked together to defeat the Beitong Kingdom a few years ago.
But Beitong has been fighting domestically for several years, and we don't know if they will have any intentions towards our country. We need to investigate it as soon as possible so that we can make arrangements for the future."
