Chapter 108: Nine Transformations to Increase Longevity, Horseback Archery Master
Shang Yuwan smiled at Ji Suxian, with a rather flattering tone.
Ji Suxian was too lazy to glare at her, nor did she try to cover up for her: "As soon as she got the news, she rushed to save you alone. I couldn't persuade her, so I gave her three life-saving pills."
"That's three in total. I gave them all to you."
Ji Suxian pulled Twelve over, opened her mouth, and looked at her tongue. With his other hand, he felt her pulse. "You should eat, but one is enough. You bit this yourself, didn't you? It looks like you bit it off bit by bit... You two are really cruel to yourselves."
Xiao Qinggu was shocked and couldn't help but cover his mouth.
When she was a child, she couldn't bear the pain if she bit herself accidentally. How painful must it be to bite off her tongue bit by bit!
Twelve lowered her head in silence. After a moment, she secretly glanced at Shang Yuwan, and their eyes suddenly met.
"Brother, don't talk about second brother. You two are the same. How can you tell who is the winner after looking at each other?" Ji Suxian stretched out her hand and waved it in the middle, interrupting their eye contact.
"You've been beaten to a pulp, and you're still feeding the medicine into someone else's mouth? Are you forcing it? The other medicine I gave you didn't work at all. You're really not willing to take any risks. Where did your courage, which was almost like piercing the sky, go when you were on the edge of a knife and taking risky actions?"
Ji Suxian helped Shang Yuwan put on her clothes, but she couldn't help but glare at her. She turned to look at Twelve who was offering her a hand, "This one is even more amazing. You took Langjiang's Ma Jin Powder before, and only your eyeballs could move. How could you bite your tongue so badly? If it were any more serious, not even the Great Luo Immortal could save you."
She can be so cruel to herself. They are indeed master and servant who grew up together. No, the relationship between them is comparable to that of sisters.
Ji Su kept on talking a lot, but her hands did not stop inserting needles and taking out medicine.
Shang Yuwan and the others knew that Ji Suxian was tough on the outside but soft on the inside, so they listened quietly.
"Are you all mute? Why aren't you talking? Am I the only one performing a one-man show?"
Xiao Qinggu gave her face and raised his hand silently: "That..."
Ji Suxian said without even turning his head: "Last time you had a high fever, you didn't listen to my advice as a doctor. You got out of bed and ran around Luzhou City before you were fully recovered. How dare you talk back to me?"
When she got angry, she would even scold the emperor.
Xiao Qinggu: "......"
Shang Yuwan couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"?" Ji Suxian's forehead veins popped up, "You still dare to laugh? Shang Yuwan, don't think you..."
Shang Yuwan waved a brocade box in front of her eyes, "Don't be angry, look, what is this?"
The brocade box was engraved with Langjiang's unique patterns. Ji Suxian was stunned. "Where did you take it out from?"
"I put my clothes in the quilt before you took them off. I wanted to give you a surprise."
Ji Suxian was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up. He reached out, grabbed the brocade box, and opened it to take a look.
"Is this Langjiang's Nine Revolutions Pill? Did you fight General Zhao just to steal this?"
This medicine is extremely precious. Although it was concocted by the Medicine Saint of Langjiang Country, there are only seven or eight pills available in Langjiang Country right now. Where did Shang Yuwan get this half pill?
As soon as the voice fell, Ji Suxian felt something was wrong. "She has been a general for so many years, and she is not a coward. Why would she carry this thing with her?"
Shang Yuwan's eyebrows curved, "I won it back."
"Win back? How come you came back sideways after winning? The other person is still fine." Ji Suxian raised his eyebrows, "This can last..."
She was startled.
Shang Yuwan smiled and called her back to her senses, "Go and take a look. If it's fake, we can go back and find someone to argue with us, right?"
"You..." Ji Suxian pursed her lips and snorted, "I'll let you two go today!"
She grabbed the medicine box and hurried out, "Call me if you need anything!"
Xiao Qinggu looked at Shang Yuwan, then at Twelve, "If everything is fine, I'll leave first."
It seems that these two people have known each other for a short time, so we need to give them some space to reminisce.
Shang Yuwan nodded.
Xiao Qinggu turned around and left. Just as she was about to open the door, she heard someone calling her.
"Your Highness."
Xiao Qinggu turned around and looked at Shang Yuwan.
"sorry."
Xiao Qinggu was stunned for a moment, then forced a smile onto his face.
"It's okay, I figured it out a long time ago."
"Even without you, she would still die."
In the eyes of her aunt, the spy who had revealed his true identity was like a grain of sand that was an eyesore and would never tolerate Xiaoman. If he still had value, she would squeeze him out completely before killing him.
Besides, Xiao Qinggu was also familiar with Xiaoman's personality. Even if her elder brother didn't lobby her secretly, Xiaoman would turn herself into a step for her future path and let Xiao Qinggu step on her corpse to get up.
Xiaoman must die, and must die at the hands of her aunt's side, simply to allow Xiao Qinggu to distance herself from Xiao Tong, and to foster a closer and tighter relationship between her and Baijialou, so that Baijialou will believe in Xiao Qinggu's determination and will wholeheartedly assist her in seizing the throne and becoming emperor.
For Xiaoman, dying a worthy death is the best ending.
But... Xiao Qinggu had watched Xiaoman die with her own eyes, watching the person she once knew so well transform into a handful of floating earth. She couldn't help but feel resentful.
However, Xiao Qinggu had already figured it out while pursuing Shang Yuwan.
It is useless to complain and resent blindly. Only by becoming strong can you protect the people you want to protect in the future.
Shang Yuwan saw that Xiao Qinggu's expression was indeed relieved, and felt a little relieved.
“Knock knock.”
"It's me."
As the knock on the door sounded, Yue Zhu's voice came in.
Twelve's eyes darkened, revealing a murderous look, but Shang Yuwan said calmly, "Help me up."
Shi Er helped her up and sat her on the bed. She was about to take out a black scarf to cover her face, but was stopped by Shang Yuwan.
"No need, what is coming will come."
After this incident, that old Emperor Chengming will know her identity, and Yuezhu will no longer have to hide it.
Twelve people with drooping eyes should be so.
Xiao Qinggu looked at the expressions of the two men, opened the door, walked to the bed and sat down.
She just didn't believe it. Yue Zhu was just a commander of the Longwu Army. How could he kill her, a princess, on the spot?
Shang Yuwan knew that she wanted to protect him, and felt a little warm in his heart.
Yue Zhu stepped into the room, closed the door with his backhand, and saluted: "Your Highness, Lord Shang."
He naturally saw Twelve standing beside Shang Yuwan and said without any surprise, "It's you."
Shang Yuwan took over the conversation, "Commander Yue has a good eye, I'm afraid he must have seen it a long time ago."
Ever since Luzhou City was deliberately injured by Twelve, Yue Zhu had begun to doubt it, but he himself did not dare to believe it.
It was not until Twelve showed his face when he carried Shang Yuwan into the inn that he was forced to admit that Wan'er was still alive.
He always wanted to try Shang Yuwan, but he never dared.
Yue Zhu pulled a stool and sat down, staring straight at Shang Yuwan from a distance of ten steps away. His face was pale and he was so thin that his bones were visible. His black hair was mixed with strands of white hair on his temples. The exposed parts of his clothes were wrapped in layer upon layer of medical gauze, making him as fragile as a glass doll.
He was silent for a moment and asked, "Are you okay?"
Shang Yuwan replied sarcastically without hesitation: "When did Commander Yue develop an eye disease?"
Yuezhu: “…”
Xiao Qinggu gave a thumbs up in his heart: Good job.
Yue Zhu sighed, "Hatred is more suffocating than bone-eating poison. Why are you doing this?"
He had not wanted to come over, but he could not help himself. Emperor Chengming was very capable, and Shang Yuwan could not defeat him.
Yue Zhu wanted to persuade Shang Yuwan, even though the hope was slim. As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood.
Shang Yuwan frowned and smiled. "So, is it me who deserves to die, or is it the Shang family who deserves to be destroyed?"
She sneered, "If that old man had destroyed the Yue family, would Master have been so calm?"
Yue Zhu was stunned.
"Have you forgotten?"
Shang Yuwan gently raised her forearm. "My hands have been stained with everything except the addictive Five Poison Powder. I've learned and practiced everything to survive, from the six arts of a gentleman to the eight graces of a woman, from military strategy to calculating people's hearts. I've even considered secretly learning the skills of the Heavenly Master of Wentian Pavilion."
"I'm hardworking, motivated, and tenacious. My father taught me the Shang family's swordsmanship. The old man also valued me and taught me swordsmanship sincerely."
As time goes by, Shang Yuwan still likes to use dual swords.
"And you taught me how to ride and shoot."
"To be honest," Shang Yuwan laughed sarcastically.
"You and that old man are both my masters."
Yuezhu remained silent.
