At this moment, Yan An and Yue Xiyuan slowly entered the hall.
"I got up a little late and had breakfast, so I kept Prince Heng waiting."
After Yan An said that, the Gu worms, which had been temporarily suppressed, seemed to be about to become active again.
Yan Shaoheng used his internal energy to gradually suppress him, and when he saw Yue Xiyuan standing to the side, he felt a little displeased.
"Where is General Yan? I came here today hoping to pay him a visit."
"Unfortunately, these past few days, wild animals have been inexplicably appearing in our house, biting anyone they see. We humans can't argue with animals, so we can only stay far away. If it weren't for Prince Heng sending a visiting card yesterday, I would have gone to the palace with my mother today."
How could Yan Shaoheng not understand the meaning behind Yan An's words? He was being insulted, both openly and subtly.
With his hands gripping the wheelchair tightly, and the Tianshan water filling the hall, he wanted to be angry but dared not, fearing that the poison in his body would once again become uncontrollable.
"Since General Yan is not in the manor, Princess An may speak frankly about what kind of cooperation you wish to have with me?"
"Oh! No rush, no rush. Prince Heng has not yet tasted the tea in the manor. Why don't we try it before discussing cooperation?"
Yan An took another cup of tea from Bai Zhi's hand; the cup was completely different from the one placed in front of Yan Shaoheng.
"Your Highness, you might as well have a taste; the Tianshan Snow Green is a rare find."
Upon hearing the name "Tianshan Snow Green," Yan Shaoheng's eyes involuntarily lit up.
Tianshan Snow Green Tea is the finest of the finest teas, a rare find even in the Yue Kingdom, let alone the Yan Kingdom.
Moreover, Yunxi once said that the snow green of Tianshan Mountain and the water of Tianshan Mountain are extremely similar. A drop of Tianshan Mountain water mixed with a large amount of water becomes the nourishment for Gu worms.
The Tianshan Snow Green is a source of nourishment for Gu worms. If he drinks it every day, the Gu worms in his body might be able to merge with him.
Yan Shaoheng took the teacup, lifted the lid, and a delicate fragrance instantly filled the hall. He drank it all in one gulp.
"So, is King Heng satisfied with the Tianshan Snow Green?"
Yan Shaoheng instantly felt that the Gu worms in his body were no longer as active as before, and the pain gradually disappeared.
[I never imagined that these few small patches of Tian Shan snow green would have such effects.]
“Indeed excellent. I wonder how Princess An obtained this Tianshan Snow Green? If you are willing to part with it, I am willing to pay a hefty sum to purchase it.”
After saying that, Yan Shaoheng felt as if his chest had been crushed and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
A heart-wrenching pain spread rapidly from his abdomen to his entire body, as if all his bones were shattering wildly, every blood vessel was writhing incessantly, and even under Yan Shaoheng's skin, countless Gu worms were wriggling.
"Master, Master, what's wrong? Yan An! What on earth did you give my master to drink?"
"What did I drink? It was just a cup of tea. You saw me drink it too."
Cheng Ying didn't waste any words with Yan An. She took out a bottle of medicine from her sleeve and gave it all to Yan Shaoheng.
"Oh, I remember now, this tea was brewed with water from the Tianshan Mountains. But this water from the Tianshan Mountains is a sacred substance, a panacea for bringing the dead back to life. How come it turned out like this when used on Prince Heng?"
Yan pretended to cover his mouth, feigning surprise.
"Could it be that Prince Heng has a Gu poison inside him? Is this constantly writhing Gu poison?"
Cheng Ying fed Yan Shaoheng many pills, but none of them alleviated the pain of the backlash.
He drew his sword and flashed to Yan An's side, holding the sword to Yan An's neck.
Yue Xiyuan's expression was sinister, his gaze as cold as a thin blade. With a wave of his palm, he slapped Cheng Ying heavily to the ground.
Before Cheng Ying could react, he collapsed to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Cheng Ying never expected that Yue Xiyuan's internal strength was so profound.
Beneath Yue Xiyuan's brows, a faint red hue concealed a bloodthirsty and ferocious aura; his pupils were constricted, like the frost of a harsh winter.
Yan An gently stroked Yue Xiyuan's chest, "Don't be angry, don't be angry, anger is bad for your health!"
Although Cheng Ying was no match for the two, she was still unwilling to give up, saying, "Yue Xiyuan and Yan An, if anything happens to my King Heng of Yan in Yue Kingdom, your Yue Kingdom will be held responsible!"
"Do you think I, Yan An, am easily frightened?" Yan An was not frightened at all; instead, he sat down and began to sip his tea.
"What do you want? As long as you provide the antidote, I will go through fire and water to accomplish it."
"Requirements? Let me think about it."
Yan pretended to think for a moment, then answered decisively, "No!"
Cheng Ying coughed a few more times in anger, almost coughing up blood.
"However, I did not use any medicine. Your master simply drank an excessive amount of water from Tianshan Mountain. He will recover in seven days."
The Tianshan Snow Green tea, made with water from the Tianshan Mountains, is extremely beneficial to ordinary people.
However, for those who are poisoned by Gu, especially those whose bodies are occupied by Gu worms, although it is not fatal, it will make the Gu worms in their bodies abnormally active, and the active period will only last for about six or seven days.
"Seven days?" Cheng Ying picked up the knife from the ground and pointed it at Yan An again. "You poisonous woman, my master originally intended to cooperate with you, but you actually resorted to such a vicious act."
"Do you no longer want your hands?"
Cheng Ying looked at Yue Xiyuan, who was much younger than her, and felt a little scared.
"It's only seven days, it won't kill your master. Back then, your master wanted to kill Yue Xiyuan within seven days! Now I'm just making him suffer for seven days, and you call me a poisonous woman? Then what are you?"
Yan Ansong leaned lazily against the sandalwood chair, exuding an evil and violent aura. Her imposing presence was like that of a demon king from a battlefield.
Cheng Ying couldn't help but tremble, instantly feeling the cold all over her body.
When Yue Xiyuan heard that Yan An had attacked Yan Shaoheng because of him, his mood immediately improved considerably.
It's so good to have someone protecting you!
Yue Xiyuan gazed at Yan An with deep affection. How could his little girl be so wonderful! How could she be so beautiful!
The knife in Cheng Ying's hand fell to the ground. [So she knew everything.]
"However, if I'm not mistaken, the pills in your hand are used to suppress the Gu worms in Prince Heng's body. Taking more of them might alleviate the symptoms considerably."
After Yan An finished speaking, Cheng Ying immediately fed the remaining pills in the porcelain bottle to Yan Shaoheng.
Yan Shaoheng was in so much pain that he wanted to roll around in his wheelchair. The pain all over his body made it impossible for him to utter a single word, but he heard every word of Yan An and the others' conversation.
After watching Yan Shaoheng swallow one, two, three, four... pills, Yan An secretly mocked him.
Yan An is right. Taking more pills can indeed greatly reduce Yan Shaoheng's pain and make the Gu worms more stable for the time being.
However, the more pills one takes, the more frequent the Gu worm attacks become and the more dosage is required.
If they want to control the Gu worms again in the future, it will probably be even more difficult.
