"Don't believe this woman's nonsense. I have absolutely no relationship with her; we were just strangers who met by chance!"
Qi Guze hurriedly came out to explain, but when he saw the wounds and bloodstains on Xu Yuehuai's body, his heart almost broke.
"Ah Yue, what's wrong?"
"Who hurt you like this?"
Qi Guze stepped forward and stood in front of the prison. Looking at Xu Yuehuai's appearance, he wanted to rush in and save her.
Princess Yinshan watched with disdain, her brows furrowed in anger.
Xu Yuehuai quickly hid the wound on her hand inside her sleeve and said to Qi Guze, "Aze, I'm fine, you don't need to worry about me."
Qi Guze said, "Take these medicines first. Tomorrow I will go and ask the King of Mingyue Kingdom to release you!"
He gave all the best medicine he had with him to Xu Yuehuai.
Princess Yinshan, who was watching from the side, suddenly spoke.
"You yourself are seriously injured, yet you still give her this top-quality medicine. You must be deeply in love with her!"
Xu Yuehuai was shocked upon hearing this and looked at Qi Guze with concern.
"Aze! How did you get hurt? Where are you hurt? Let me see!"
Qi Guze's wounds were particularly severe, and he was unwilling to show them to Xu Yuehuai.
"No, don't listen to her nonsense. I'm perfectly fine. I only have a minor injury, and I'll be fine soon."
Xu Yuehuai, however, did not believe what Qi Guze said; he must have suffered very serious injuries.
"Aze, please let me see! I'll be very worried if I don't see your wounds."
Princess Yinshan didn't want to see the two of them being all lovey-dovey, so she snorted coldly and flicked her hand, making a commotion.
Immediately, some of the hypnotized guards nearby heard the sound and immediately headed over to find it!
Upon seeing this, Qi Guze gave Princess Yinshan a cold look.
"What are you doing? Why are you making such a commotion? Do you want us all to die here?"
Princess Yinshan said, "Ha! So what if I'm willing? If you don't want to die, you'd better leave here quickly!"
With that, Princess Yinshan left.
Qi Guze looked at Xu Yuehuai and, through the prison bars, grasped her hand.
He looked at Xu Yuehuai tenderly and said, "Ayue, you should stay here and recover from your injuries. Tomorrow I will go and discuss with the King of Mingyue Kingdom to ask him to release you as soon as possible."
Xu Yuehuai said, "You don't need to be so anxious for me. It's okay if you rescue me a little later."
"You must take good care of yourself and not get hurt because of me."
"Although I don't know the extent of your injuries, since these are excellent medicines, you should keep them for yourself!"
"You could leave me some silver, though!"
Qi Guze smiled faintly and pushed Xu Yuehuai's hand inward, "No need, I have plenty of medicine for injuries, you can keep these yourself."
"You can keep all of this silver!"
As Qi Guze spoke, he took out a thick wad of silver from his pocket, which looked to be over ten thousand!
"So many!"
Xu Yuehuai was somewhat shocked when Qi Guze stuffed all the silver into her palm.
She gripped it tightly, a smile playing on her lips.
"Thank you, Aze! With this money, I can get by comfortably even if I have to stay in prison for a while!"
Upon hearing this, Qi Guze smiled and flicked Xu Yuehuai's forehead.
"What nonsense are you spouting? I will definitely rescue you as soon as possible!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a jailer suddenly came searching around.
"Who's there!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Yuehuai quickly pushed Qi Guze.
"Aze! Hurry up and go! Don't worry about me!"
Qi Guze nodded, lingering for a long time before reluctantly leaving Xu Yuehuai. Only when a jailer approached did he quickly gather his inner strength and leave.
Some of the jailers chased after Qi Guze, while others walked towards Xu Yuehuai.
"It's you again! What's that person doing here?"
"Did they come to kill you, or to save you?"
Xu Yuehuai said, "I don't know either. I just heard a noise, and when I woke up, I saw a figure running in that direction. You guys came too."
"Maybe he was trying to save someone, but he just came to the wrong place!"
The jailer didn't believe Xu Yuehuai's words at all, but seeing that Xu Yuehuai hadn't escaped with that person, and having no evidence to deal with Xu Yuehuai, he could only snort coldly and then turn and leave.
Before leaving, they warned Xu Yuehuai, "I advise you to behave yourself and not cause any trouble. If you cause any problems, you'll be held accountable!"
Xu Yuehuai scoffed inwardly, but outwardly appeared very obedient.
"Okay, gentlemen! I definitely won't do anything funny, so please rest assured!"
"You're smart to know what's good for you, let's go!"
Xu Yuehuai finally breathed a sigh of relief after the jailers left.
With Qi Guze's martial arts skills being so high, he was definitely able to shake off the prison guards chasing him, and he's probably safe now.
Xu Yuehuai took out the silver and medicine she had just hidden in her bosom and smiled.
Qi Guze still cared about her, which is why he rushed over to save her so quickly!
Xu Yuehuai felt especially happy, a warm feeling spreading through her heart.
She hid the silver, then took out some wound medicine and reapplied it to herself.
The medicine was in a jade bottle, and the powder inside had a faint medicinal fragrance. It felt cool when applied to the wound, and it was not in the same league as the medicine that Physician Li had given her.
After applying Qi Guze's wound medicine, Xu Yuehuai felt refreshed and invigorated. Her wounds healed quickly, and some of her internal injuries also improved significantly.
Xu Yuehuai was especially grateful to Qi Guze, otherwise she didn't know when her injury would have healed.
She hid the remaining medicine and then lay down on the stone bed in the corner to recuperate.
Looking through the small window in the wall at the faint moonlight outside, Xu Yuehuai couldn't help but think of Qi Guze, and felt a deep longing in her heart.
She clutched the jade hairpin Qi Guze had given her tightly and gradually fell asleep.
Qi Guze left the prison, shaking off the jailers who were following him.
Just as they were returning to the Tianxianglou branch, they were suddenly ambushed again!
It seemed as if the other party knew that Qi Guze would pass through here, so they blocked the road between the palace and the Tianxianglou branch, just to deal with Qi Guze!
Qi Guze drew his soft sword from his waist and thrust it forward, attacking his opponent directly.
There were more than a dozen men in black opposite them, all of imposing stature, who looked like they were from the Mingyue Kingdom.
Qi Guze showed no mercy and attacked them relentlessly!
"Charge! Kill Qi Guze! This regent of the Great Zhou Kingdom!"
The assassins from the Dark Moon Kingdom raised their arms and shouted, ordering everyone around them to surround and kill Qi Guze!
Qi Guze was all alone. He had just taken medicine to enhance his internal strength, but the effects of the medicine were about to kick in!
He can't hold out for long!
Accidentally stabbed, Qi Guze quickly retreated, trying to find a place to hide.
