Chapter 247 I Believe in Awu
This is the antidote that Ye Runan sent from Cassia to relieve the soft tendon powder.
Yun Qingshi half-sat against the soft pillow and inhaled for a while. He felt cool and comfortable.
After a while, Xiao Jiwu took out the medicine and put it away, then asked with concern, "How are you? Are you feeling better?"
Hearing this, Yun Qingshi silently felt it, then nodded with difficulty.
But the fact is that he hasn't felt any effect of the medicine yet. After all, Ye Runan said to wait for two quarters.
Even if it is a magic medicine, it needs time to take effect. Xiao Yunqi is just too impatient.
But he didn't want Xiao Jiwu to worry about him, so he nodded.
When Xiao Jiwu met the boy's eyes, he had already guessed something. He couldn't help but sigh and hugged Yun Qingshi into his arms gently.
Yun Qingshi couldn't do anything at the moment, so he just let Xiao Jiwu hold him quietly.
But after Xiao Jiwu hugged him in this posture, his eyes happened to fall on the table not far away.
Coincidentally, there were some of his favorite snacks on the table.
Cloud cake, rose cake, osmanthus cake...
The more Yun Qingshi looked at it, the more greedy and hungry he became.
The main reason is that at this time on weekdays, it is indeed time for them to have dinner.
In the past, he would sometimes eat some fruit snacks in the afternoon, but today, since he was brought into the palace, he has not even had a sip of water except for the bowl of muscle softening powder.
It would be strange if I wasn't hungry.
What a pity, I don’t know how long it will take before I can eat again, alas…
Thinking of this, Yun Qingshi closed his eyes sadly and chose not to look anymore.
In this way, the two of them snuggled together for about a quarter of an hour, and then Yun Qingshi tentatively moved his body.
My body was still weak and feeble, but at least I could stretch my hands out without any problem.
He tried to open his mouth again: "Xiao, Yun, Qi..."
Although my voice is a little hoarse and my speech is still unclear, it is much better than when I couldn't speak.
"Qingqing." Xiao Jiwu responded to the young man immediately, and then gently helped Yun Qingshi sit back on the soft pillow and said, "I'll go get you some water. Drink some water to moisten your throat before you talk."
Yun Qingshi nodded in agreement after hearing this, and then said with difficulty: "I want more, food."
He was really hungry.
Xiao Jiwu felt even more distressed after hearing this. He quickly went over to fetch the teapot and then ordered outside the hall, "Zhao Mingde, go see if there's any soft and chewy food in the kitchen. Send it back quickly."
It’s not that he didn’t understand Yun Qingshi’s meaning, but the snacks on the table were not suitable for the young man at that moment.
Outside the Yian Palace, Zhao Mingde quickly agreed: "Yes, I will go."
Xiao Jiwu returned to the couch, poured some water, and began to carefully feed Yun Qingshi: "I've tried it, it's not hot, drink it plainly."
"Yeah." Yun Qingshi's lips were dry after not drinking water for several hours, but he still couldn't drink water quickly.
Xiao Jiwu was also patient enough and always fed Yun Qingshi water gently and carefully.
After drinking the water, Yun Qingshi recovered a little and was finally able to sit up on his own.
Just then, Zhao Mingde also brought some food, which was a soft and tender stewed meat porridge. This was obviously more to Yun Qingshi's liking than the snacks, so he drank half a bowl of porridge after being fed by Xiao Jiwu.
He didn't finish drinking it because he was waiting to take some muscle softening powder before dinner.
Of course, the porridge was not wasted, and the remaining part went into Prince Xiao's stomach.
Both of them ate a little, and Yun Qingshi had recovered a little and tried to move his hands and feet.
He reached out and touched Xiao Jiwu's face, then wanted to take his hand away. However, before he could do so, the back of his hand was pressed down by another big palm.
Xiao Jiwu seemed to have something to say. Realizing this, Yun Qingshi looked up and looked at her boyfriend with wide eyes.
Facing the young man's clear eyes, Xiao Jiwu slowly opened his lips and said, "Qingqing, I'm sorry. I haven't done what I promised you yet."
Yun Qingshi understood what Xiao Jiwu was talking about as soon as he heard it.
What Xiao Jiwu was talking about was the promise to make him the Princess of Yi.
Yun Qingshi then slowly shook his head: "It's not your fault, you..."
Everyone knows how difficult this matter is, so how could he blame Xiao Jiwu? He knows how much effort Xiao Jiwu has put in to fulfill those promises.
Xiao Jiwu frowned slightly and continued, "I originally wanted to wait for the right time and then make Qingqing the Crown Princess. Unfortunately, my father is too impatient. Now the time is not right. I can only take it step by step and put Qingqing aside for a while. But I promise that day will come soon."
Yun Qingshi nodded and responded, "I know."
"You, don't keep saying sorry. I believe you, Awu..."
He continued, "Also, don't call yourself a disaster anymore, okay? It makes me sad."
Xiao Jiwu nodded hurriedly: "Okay, I won't say it again."
Yun Qingshi was finally satisfied after hearing this. He then smiled and gently pinched Xiao Jiwu's cheek and said, "Well, although the process was a bit scary, the result is good. Our Awu is now the crown prince."
"Isn't that right, Your Highness?"
There was only heartache in Xiao Jiwu's eyes: "I will never let you take risks again."
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingshi withdrew his hand and leaned over to hug Xiao Jiwu: "I believe in Ah Wu..."
————
After about half an hour, the muscle softening in Yun Qingshi's body was finally completely relieved.
Afterwards, Xiao Jiwu took Yun Qingshi to have dinner.
Shortly after dinner, Ying Yi, who had stayed in the palace to investigate, returned to the palace, and the matter had been clarified.
At this point, the investigation became much simpler. All we had to do was interrogate a few eunuchs around the emperor and everything would be clear.
At that time, Yun Qingshi was sitting behind the desk holding Yun Duo and reading a storybook, and Xiao Jiwu was sitting beside him quietly accompanying him.
Until Ying knocked on the palace door: "Master."
Xiao Jiwu heard the voice and walked towards the door and ordered, "Come in."
Yun Qingshi also silently closed the book and planned to listen to the results of the investigation.
Ying Yi quickly entered the hall, knelt, and began to report: "Master, we have investigated everything. The informant was a concubine of the Fourth Prince who was originally kept outside the palace. The Fourth Prince told her about the matter before entering the palace that day. Ying Ba happened to be sent away at the time, so he had no idea that anyone else knew about this matter."
"After the Fourth Prince fell into the water, she believed it was the Prince's doing. Holding a grudge, she spent all her money and used connections to get the news to the Emperor."
So that’s how it is, Yun Qingshi thought.
Xiao Jiwu then asked in a cold voice: "Where is she now?"
Ying Yi lowered his head and replied, "It was too late for me. She has already committed suicide."
