Chapter 130: Cui Xing is different, sleeping in the same bed
"Don't worry, Your Highness. The child is fine and has fallen asleep now."
Miao Gu said "Your Highness" but there was no respect on her face.
She looked at Shang Yuwan and sat up straight. "Miss, you just vomited all that. I'm sure your stomach is empty. Would you like some porridge?"
His Majesty has a close relationship with Madam Lu Xu, and Shang Yuwan is Madam Lu Xu's daughter. Even if Miao Gu wants to kill her so much, she cannot do it openly in front of Cui Xing and others.
"It's late now, so there's no need to worry about it, Miao-gu." Shang Yuwan politely declined. "I want to go see Yin'er. Can Miss Ning She take me there?"
Miao Gu yawned. She had wanted to take a rest when she was waiting for Shang Yuwan and the others to appear on the official road, and now she was really sleepy.
She gently rubbed the corners of her eyes with her nail polish-coated fingertips. "Since the young lady is worried, I can't stop her. Ning She, take Miss Shang to see Yin'er."
Xiao Qingxu said: "This prince is with Wanwan."
Miao Gu glanced at them and said, "Since that's the case, Your Highness should go as well. After the examination, you two should get some sleep to avoid overworking yourself and damaging your health."
Ning She accepted the order: "Yes. Miss, Your Highness, please follow me."
As soon as she finished speaking, Cui Xing stood up and asked, "When will they be detoxified?"
Miao Gu glanced at her lazily and said, "Didn't I tell you that I can't untie it?"
Cui Xing frowned and rolled her eyes.
"You're just pretending!"
Shang Yuwan, who had just stood up, said: "......"
Xiao Qingxu, who was about to follow, said: "......"
Miao Gu's mouth twitched twice, "Cui Niang, you have changed a little over the years."
Not only did he become vulgar, but he also became a good actor.
Cui Xing said with a cold expression, "One last time, give me both the person and the antidote."
Miao Gu supported her head with one hand, her mind racing as she said, "I can give you the person, but I really don't have the antidote."
"That's not the poison I concocted."
"Who did it?"
Miao Gu looked at Cui Xing and smiled meaningfully: "How should I know?"
After saying this, Xiao Qingxu's mind moved. Shang Yuwan also paused and looked at Cui Xing. Something seemed to flash in his eyes. He turned to Miao Gu and said, "How can the poison harm people?"
Miao Gu shook her head. "As long as you take medicine every two weeks to temporarily suppress the poison, you'll be fine. Otherwise, you'll just have to endure the pain of being burned by the flames."
She touched her nail-colored fingertips.
"It took me a lot of effort to make this medicine to suppress the toxin."
Cui Xing's face was gloomy. Shang Yu pulled her hand, turned sideways to Miao Gu, and winked at Cui Xing.
"Miss Cui, why don't you come with us?"
"Those two people will be fine now. Go check on the kid and take a break. We can discuss the rest tomorrow."
All Miao Gu wanted was the account books and Yang Qianmo in their hands, but Shang Yuwan was not afraid of her.
Xiao Qingxu is of noble status, and she has the Empress to bully her, so she thinks Miao Gu will not take action for the time being.
Cui Xing nodded and glared at Miao Gu before being pulled away by Shang Yuwan.
After everyone left, only Miao Gu and the two people behind her were left in the lobby.
"Someone come."
As soon as Miao Gu finished speaking, a woman walked out from the darkness.
"Keep a close eye on them, don't let them get away."
"Yes." The woman took the order and left.
Miaogu blinked, tears welling up in her eyes, and she felt increasingly sleepy. "Let's go, we should get some sleep. We have a great show to watch tomorrow."
The maid to her right stepped forward and said, "Miao Gu, as for Sister Cui...are we just going to take the blame for her?"
Cui Xing had gone to Cai Xia Town to look for Miao Gu before she found Shang Yuwan and Xiao Qingxu. Everything she showed in front of Shang Yuwan was fake.
"Take the blame? Cui Niang has clearly helped me a lot."
Miao Gu curled her lips and smiled, stood up, patted the maid's shoulder, and walked away.
"It's a pity for Xiaoyi and Lu Shi. They are both very loyal. Even when I threatened them, they didn't point out the location of Shang Yuwan and the others."
"They have worked with Cui Niang for many years, so they should have some friendship between them. But now, they are being treated as abandoned by her. Tsk tsk, how heartless."
On the other side, Shang Yuwan and Xiao Qingxu stood by the window, watching Yin'er sleeping peacefully on the bed from afar.
Shang Yuwan frowned slightly, "What did you give her to eat?"
Her parents were killed by someone else. Yin'er was only five or six years old. How could she fall asleep so easily?
Ning She replied in a low voice: "She drank the tranquilizing soup, which contained drugs, so it's harmless."
Xiao Qingxu turned his head to look at her, "There's more."
Miaogu was able to establish a mysterious organization near Caixia Town, and her methods must be very sophisticated. Was the drink she gave Yin'er just a tranquilizing soup laced with drugs?
Ning She remained silent.
Shang Yuwan's face turned completely cold, but she still chose to comfort Xiao Qingxu first.
"Go to sleep first. You are weak and can't stay up all night."
Xiao Qingxu also knew that there were more important things to do tomorrow, so he nodded.
Ning She said, "Please follow me, both of you."
Cui Xing stopped her, "What about us?"
As soon as the voice fell, someone appeared quietly, "Three, please follow me."
Cui Xing looked at Shang Yuwan worriedly, and when she saw Shang Yuwan nodded, she had no choice but to follow him away.
Shang Yuwan and Xiao Qingxu were taken into a guest room. As soon as Xiao Qingxu stepped in, the door was closed by Ning She.
"Please have a good rest, someone will come to serve you tomorrow morning."
After saying this, Ning She turned and left.
Xiao Qingxu was worried and opened the window to look around. Shang Yuwan was carefree. Seeing that there was only one bed in the room, he took off his outer clothes and soft armor first and slowly lay down.
"Hey, be careful with your injuries!"
Xiao Qingxu was just about to help Shang Yu go to bed at night when he turned around and saw her trembling twice while holding the quilt.
Shang Yuwan poked his head out from under the quilt, his brows slightly furrowed, revealing a bit of fatigue.
"It's okay, don't worry, this body is very good and durable."
Seeing that she didn't notice that he had been frowning all the way, Xiao Qingxu didn't say much, but just silently tucked the quilt in for her.
"Is it hot?"
Shang Yuwan shook his head.
"Can I see the wound?"
Xiao Qingxu asked cautiously, and only after Shang Yuwan nodded did he dare to slowly roll up her sleeves.
When the hideous scar came into view, Xiao Qingxu's tears began to fall.
"They don't even deliver medicine here..."
Xiao Qingxu muttered softly, his eyes full of heartache.
"Why are you still crying like a child?" Shang Yuwan raised her hand to wipe away his tears and comforted him with a smile, "It hasn't broken open yet, and they still want to kill us. Even if they really brought the medicine, I wouldn't dare to use it."
Xiao Qingxu rarely showed some childishness, and pouted, "I didn't like to cry when I was a child."
"Yes, yes, our honorable Prince Qi was not a crybaby when he was a child."
"Oh, I don't know who it is. He hides in the palace and won't come out. He cries quietly in the corners every day. I, a little girl, have to climb the wall every day with a bag of honey and folk trinkets. If it weren't for..."
Shang Yuwan was teasing Xiao Qingxu, but suddenly stopped talking.
Xiao Qingxu's expression also changed slightly.
They all knew what she was about to say next - if it weren't for Emperor Chengming's tacit approval, she would have been killed by the Longwu Army in the palace as an assassin.
"...Go to sleep. I have things to do tomorrow."
Shang Yuwan turned over, and Xiao Qingxu quickly stopped her, "Don't turn sideways, wait for me for a moment."
"Um?"
Xiao Qingxu saw that she was lying straight, then he took out the dagger from his boots.
Shang Yuwan: “?”
She saw Xiao Qingxu first tear off the curtain with a dagger, and then search around the room.
Not long after, Xiao Qingxu finally found a thin wooden board and used a dagger to grind it down bit by bit. The size of the board was just right to fix Shang Yuwan's back.
He helped Shang Yuwan fix the thin wooden board on her back, then took the thin piece of curtain in his hand and slowly wrapped it around Shang Yuwan.
Throughout the entire set of movements, Xiao Qingxu's fingertips never touched Shang Yuwan's body.
"Is your breathing still smooth?"
Shang Yuwan nodded and said, "Come up and sleep."
Xiao Qingxu was about to sit down beside the bed when he paused, "?"
Shang Yuwan tilted her head, and her black and white hair stood up a little.
"Is there something wrong? We are husband and wife, can't we sleep in the same bed?"
