Chapter 162 Sickly Beauty
Li Yueyao pushed everyone away and entered Feng Shenyu's room.
The room was filled with agarwood, but it still couldn't cover up the smell of blood and medicine.
What Li Yueyao didn't know was that this smell of medicine was deliberately spilled on the ground by Yan Mo just now.
This was Li Yueyao's first time visiting the Right Prime Minister's Mansion. Previously, Feng Shenyu always went to find her.
At this moment, she had no intention of paying attention to the furnishings in the room. As soon as she entered the room, she stared at the person on the bed.
Li Yueyao walked to the bed, sat down on the edge of the bed, and looked at Feng Shenyu quietly without saying a word.
The handsome face of the person on the bed was pale.
So he looked up and asked Yan Xin, "Where is your husband injured? Did he lose a lot of blood?"
Yan Xin heard this and replied, "My dear, your left arm is injured and you've lost blood... Losing blood is not a big deal, is it?"
Li Yueyao frowned after hearing this. What do you mean by losing blood? It’s okay, right?
So he gently lifted the blanket covering Feng Shenyu, rolled up his sleeves, and saw his arm wrapped in gauze.
Feng Shenyu thought to himself that this was not good. If he saw the wound, the truth would be revealed.
But after thinking about it carefully, he realized that he was unconscious because of poisoning, not because of excessive blood loss.
He continued to pretend to be unconscious and did not open his eyes.
Li Yueyao looked at his arm, then lowered her sleeve and covered him with the thin blanket.
"Tell me about what happened tonight."
Li Yueyao looked up at Yanxin.
Yanxin subconsciously looked up at Yantai, and Yantai spoke from behind.
"Today I accompanied my husband to the palace.
After returning from the palace banquet, as soon as I turned into the street inside the mansion, several men in black came out from the dark.
He came up and swung his sword at the man on horseback, and we all fought back.
In the chaos, Langjun accidentally injured his left arm.
Fortunately, Yu Zhan came out to greet them. He heard the noise and rushed over, and was able to drive the enemy away."
Li Yueyao just sat there and listened carefully to Yan Tai's story.
"Didn't they catch anyone?"
Yantai shook his head.
"No one dead or alive?"
"There's a body that Yu Zhan took to the dungeon."
Li Yueyao nodded, thinking that with Yu Zhan's ability, he would definitely be able to find out something.
Thinking about what happened tonight, it felt a bit weird, and I don’t know what’s going on with Chen Yue.
Just as she was thinking about it, Gan Hong came in from outside and handed the medicine to Li Yueyao.
Li Yueyao handed the medicine to Yan Xin who was standing beside her and said, "Dissolve it in yellow rice wine and give it to your husband to take."
"Yes."
After Yanxin finished speaking, she walked out with her head lowered.
After a while, he came in again, holding a small bowl in his hand, which was filled with dark medicinal juice with a strong smell of rice wine.
Li Yueyao personally stepped forward to help Fengshenyu up and leaned him against her.
Feng Shenyu leaned in Li Yueyao's arms, feeling her body temperature, and drank the medicine very cooperatively.
After Feng Shenyu lay down, Chen Yue's voice came from outside.
"Come in and talk." Li Yueyao said.
Chen Yue was soaked by the rain and stood at the door, looking up at the right prime minister lying on the bed.
Then he said, "Your Highness, there is indeed an ambush at the intersection of Qingzhu Street, south of Shangdongmen Street."
Everyone in the room was shocked when they heard this.
The graceful fingers on the bed moved imperceptibly.
"Have they caught the person?" Li Yueyao asked.
"Huai Xiucheng arrived as promised, and we apprehended the entire group. Xue An and Huai Xiucheng sent them to the Hundred Cavalry Division.
The leader of the thieves was Yulin Guard Commandant Cai Xun."
"Cai Xun?" Li Yueyao frowned.
"That was the Xuanwu Gate guard that Your Highness encountered on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month last year when he returned to the palace."
When Chen Yue said this, Li Yueyao remembered.
"Isn't he Deng Feng's man?" Li Yueyao asked.
"He had close contacts with General Deng and General Shao Yi, who was far to the south."
Li Yueyao frowned as she listened.
"Does the Duke of Zhenguo know this news?"
Chen Yue shook his head: "I don't know."
At this moment, Li Yueyao suddenly heard Feng Shenyu's weak voice:
"Zhen...Zhen Guogong, know about this."
Li Yueyao turned her head and looked at Feng Shenyu: "You're awake."
His graceful spirit was as thin as a thread, and his face was pale as he said, "Your Highness...Your Highness...you are here..."
After saying this, Feng Shenyu's eyes suddenly turned red.
Li Yueyao glanced at him, looking pitiful, like an abandoned puppy.
Is this the legendary feeling of brokenness?
Such brokenness makes Fengshen Jade show another kind of beauty, which makes people want to cherish it more.
This pitiful little thing, don't say it, don't say it...
Li Yueyao sighed inwardly: Who the hell can withstand this? I’m not a saint.
Just by looking at his face, I know that he is innocent, pure, and misunderstood.
Forgive him, you must forgive him. Not forgiving him only shows that you are narrow-minded.
Thinking about it, he unconsciously took Feng Shenyu's hand and asked, "How do you feel now?"
Feng Shenyu saw that Li Yueyao had no makeup on and her hair was simply tied up. It was obvious that she had just gone to bed and gotten up again.
At this moment, the look in his eyes as he held his hand was full of concern, and he immediately knew in his heart:
This is a sure thing!
So he continued to act pitiful, struggling to get up, saying:
"Your Highness, I just heard you say...say...Cai Xun..."
Li Yueyao patted his hand soothingly: "I heard that you were assassinated, so I guessed that they might do the same to me.
So we took advantage of the situation and had Gan Qing and his men lead a large force to pretend to lure the enemy out and capture them successfully."
Feng Shenyu was shocked when he heard this and tightly grasped Li Yueyao's hands:
"Your Highness, are you okay?"
Li Yueyao shook her head.
"I'm fine, you're poisoned, so you should take care of yourself first."
Feng Shenyu pretended to be stunned and said, "I'm poisoned? What kind of poison?"
"Bleeding Powder. But I've already taken the Ice Jade Immortal Pill, so I should be fine." Li Yueyao explained.
When everyone saw the two of them holding hands and talking, Yan Tai waved to the people around him very tactfully, and everyone retreated quietly.
When I came out, Qian Lou and Yan Tai were standing two steps outside the door.
Qian Lou looked at the rain curtain in front of him and said, "The Right Prime Minister's trick of inflicting pain on himself is quite effective."
Yan Tai was surprised and opened his mouth, not knowing how to respond.
Qian Lou looked at him, smiled slightly, and said nothing.
Yantai quickly explained: "The assassination is real, and the poisoning is also real. It's just... it's just..."
"What is it?" Qian Lou asked.
"Before Your Highness came here, my husband had already taken the magic pill and woke up."
Yan Tai scratched his head and said.
Qian Lou snorted and said, "Did the Right Prime Minister take another magical pill just now?"
Yantai chuckled and said, "How could that be possible? I just used brown sugar water with a little rice wine."
After hearing this, Qian Lou shook his head and stopped talking.
There were two people in the room. Feng Shenyu was holding Li Yueyao's hand and said pitifully:
"Your Highness, are you really unwilling to forgive me?"
Li Yueyao sighed.
"Since you're in such a miserable state, I forgive you."
When Fengshen Yuyu heard this, she grinned, and then suddenly coughed violently twice.
After hearing this, Li Yueyao quickly helped him calm down.
Feng Shenyu sat up, moved closer to Li Yueyao, and held her in his arms.
The sudden hug startled Li Yueyao for a moment, and she began to struggle subconsciously.
"Hiss~" Fengshenyu made a sound.
Li Yueyao suddenly remembered that his left arm was injured, so he stopped moving.
Feng Shenyu felt that Li Yueyao had calmed down, and a smile appeared on his face as he rested his hand on her shoulder.
"Your Highness, let me hold you."
Li Yueyao didn't say a word.
Feng Shenyu continued, "I heard from Li Huaiyu that you had trouble eating and sleeping recently. Sigh... I was so worried that I couldn't sleep all night."
Li Yueyao patted his back and comforted him:
"Later, Xiao Yuer gave me a prescription for morning sickness. I've recovered since then and can eat and sleep now.
The child... the child is also growing up well."
