Chapter 55
"There's a military doctor in Canglin. If we send the master over there, there will definitely be a way!" He went over and carried the unconscious Song Yanting on his back.
"Go, don't leave anyone behind." Song Fuyu gave an order and all the soldiers rushed forward.
Gu Di was enraged by the arrow and yelled at You Yang, "Useless! Kill them now!"
You Yang gritted her teeth and held on to her last bit of rationality. She picked up the arrow that Song Yanting dropped on the ground, and without looking back, she gave orders to Cang Xu and Mu Lin.
"Take him away! I'll cover your retreat."
Cang Xu asked worriedly: "What are you going to do?!"
"Cang Lin will be here soon, how long can you hold on?!"
Song Yanting heard blood splattered between her eyebrows, and Youyang's pupils gradually turned into two different colors, one black and one red, as she struggled with consciousness.
Half Rakshasa, half Guanyin.
A strong obsession kept her awake.
She wiped the blood from her sword with her sleeve.
"Enough to keep you company until reinforcements arrive."
Song Fuyu snorted angrily, "How shameless!"
"Go kill her!"
The army rushed out upon hearing the news, and You Yang single-handedly fought against thousands of soldiers.
While resisting the mental control of the insect, he fought with swords in both hands.
If a sword becomes blunt, grab a new one and fight again!
Gu Di finally regained consciousness with the emergency treatment of the imperial physician.
Song Fuyu gave him a final ultimatum.
"If you can't solve her, you don't have to live."
Gu Di was furious about You Yang's betrayal and continued to increase the degree of control.
“Ah——” You Yang was covered in wounds, and his head looked like it had been torn apart by someone’s hands.
A string in her brain suddenly broke from its tense state, and she finally lost consciousness and lowered her head.
Seeing this, Song Fuyu shouted, "Stop!"
He instructed Gudi.
"Control her to kill that thief Song Yanting with her own hands."
Gu Di received the order, "Cut off the feelings, go, and put an end to those..."
"Well--"
A dagger pierced Gu Di's heart.
This knife is the one that Song Yanting gave to You Yang.
You Yang held his head, panting, and laughed wildly: "Hahahaha... You dare to think of controlling me? You are so delusional. It is your fate to die in my hands."
She turned around and jumped onto the roof to catch up with Song Yanting and his group.
Gu Di was killed by You Yang with one blow.
Song Fuyu was furious and immediately sent his most elite guards to chase Song Yanting.
You Yang would not let him have his way, she was exhausted after a night of fierce fighting, and the enemy behind her was chasing her closely and constantly releasing hidden weapons to stop her from moving forward.
After crossing a palace wall, she finally found Cang Xu and his group who were carrying Song Yanting on their backs.
In a moment, You Yang keenly caught the sharp sound of metal rubbing against each other. She followed the sound to find the location of the hidden weapon, but when she saw the direction of the hidden weapon, it was too late.
The hidden weapon flew straight towards the unconscious Song Yanting.
not good!
At this critical moment, You Yang had no other choice. She only had one chance to block the attack, but her hands could no longer lift the sword.
In the face of danger, she jumped without hesitation, blocked the three cold arrows with her flesh and blood, and fell in front of everyone.
In an instant, Cang Lin had no time to react and You Yang fell heavily to the ground.
Song Jingmo and Wei Lian only saw You Yang covered in wounds in the blink of an eye.
“!!”
"princess!"
Wei Lian immediately ordered Cang Lin and Mu Lin, "Go and deal with those people!"
The two of them came out in response.
Cang Xu put Song Yan down in front of the military doctor. After hearing this, he realized what was happening and turned around to see You Yang lying in a pool of blood.
"princess!"
Song Yan, who was in a coma, heard the calls again and again and opened his eyes with difficulty.
When he opened his eyes, he saw You Yang lying alone in a pool of blood.
"You Yang!"
Song Yanting's eyes were bloodshot and despair enveloped him. He almost crawled to You Yang's side.
You Yang was dying, staring blankly at the sky in front of him, and he didn't even have the strength to turn over.
The sword almost pierced Song Yanting's heart, and he was seriously injured, but he still used all his strength to hold Youyang in his arms.
His affectionate eyes were filled with sadness at this moment, and tears kept flowing out of them.
"It's okay, you'll be okay!"
"The military doctor will definitely be able to save you. Yangyang, hold on! I'll call the military doctor over right away!"
You Yang weakly raised her blood-stained hand and pressed down on his big hand to stop his movement.
Because she knew she couldn't hold on any longer, and her current clarity was just a fleeting moment.
If she killed the mother Gu, she herself would not be able to survive.
I can't accept it. I was living a good life, but I didn't expect this to be the end.
"No... You will be fine." Song Yan burst into tears after hearing this. He combed You Yang's scattered hair and said, "You will be fine..."
You Yang almost didn't have the strength to speak.
Her hands trembled as she tried to touch Song Yanting's face.
Song Yanting took the initiative to put his face into her palm, no matter how dirty her hands were or how much smelly blood they were stained with.
"You have something to say?"
You Yang forced a smile, her gaze fixed on Song Yanting's face, wanting to remember his appearance and engrave it in her heart.
She nodded slowly.
She pulled Song Yanting's head down and said to his left ear in a voice so weak that it was almost inaudible: "I protected you, I did it..."
Finally, he closed his eyes completely.
Song Yanting collapsed and hugged You Yang's head tightly, begging desperately.
"Please wake up, please wake up, please look at me, I can't hear with my left ear, please wake up and tell me again, please..."
The person in his arms was breathing so weakly that it was almost inaudible. Song Yan was so grief-stricken and angry that he vomited blood.
Song Jingmo and Wei Lian stood by silently, unable to bear watching this scene, and tears welled up in their eyes.
The military doctor knelt nearby, helpless.
Song Yanting refused to put down You Yang's body and the military doctor was unable to treat the wound.
Wei Lian took a deep breath and said, "Your Highness, please accept my condolences."
"Your injuries require treatment from a military doctor. Your life was saved by the princess with her own life. Don't let her down."
Song Jingmo wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and persuaded, "Yes, brother, we can't let our sister-in-law die in vain!"
"We must win this battle and avenge my sister-in-law!"
"We need you. Give me your sister-in-law. I will take good care of her."
After much persuasion from many people, Song Yanting finally let go of You Yang's body.
He left a kiss on the tip of her nose and choked out, "Wait until I come back."
——
After You Yang took his last breath, he opened his eyes and found himself in an unfamiliar little bamboo house.
Looking out the window, there is a dense bamboo forest outside.
She lowered her head and found that all the knife wounds on her body were gone. Just as she was wondering, a familiar voice came from outside the door.
"Little girl, you are finally awake."
You Yang looked up in surprise, "Old man?!"
"Why am I here? Am I not dead?"
Yiming said with a smile: "No way, you are the heroine in the storybook I wrote, how could you die so easily?"
"But I, but I'm obviously already dead."
"Not at all." Yiming shook his head meaningfully. "The body you were in the storybook was just a severely injured coma that turned into a living dead."
"And the purpose of my coming here is to fulfill the promise I made to you."
"Do you want to return to your master or to Song Yanting?"
You Yang had always wanted to return to her master, but now she has wavered.
"If I return to my master, what will happen to Song Yanting?"
Yiming touched his chin. "The body in your storybook will immediately lose its vitality and die completely. If you choose to return to your master, you will completely become a person of that world. Like those cultivators, you can practice immortal arts and achieve immortality."
"It all depends on your choice."
You Yang lowered her eyes.
Being able to practice like those cultivators was what You Yang longed for most, but now, she doesn't want it anymore.
Song Yanting needs her.
You Yang made up her mind, "I, I want to go back to Song Yanting."
"Okay." Yiming clapped his hands cheerfully, "Then I have to cure your poison first before sending you back."
He counted on his fingers and said, "According to this calculation, it will probably take another year."
"Half a year?!" You Yang was shocked. "Shouldn't a master like you be able to cure my poison with just a flick of your finger?"
"You think I'm your master?" Yiming knocked Youyang's head hard. "How can I, a mere writer, be so capable? I can only remove the poison from your living dead body, which is already the limit for me."
"Ah--" You Yang covered his head.
"Is it really okay for you to look so unreliable?"
Yiming glared at her, "Don't look down on me. Come over here quickly and I'll cure your little ancestor and send him back. I'm still waiting to write the next book."
——
One year later.
The streets are brightly lit and bustling at night.
People who had just arrived in the capital couldn't help but ask, "Today isn't the first or fifteenth day of the lunar month, so why are the streets so bustling? Could it be that today is a special festival in the capital?"
The other one waved his hand, "Hey! Where?"
He looked around to make sure no one was around, then suddenly lowered his voice and leaned over, "Today is the Queen's birthday."
"It's the Queen's birthday, is there any need to speak in such a low voice?" The man felt puzzled.
Another person quickly covered his mouth, "Be careful what you say!"
"Don't you know that the current emperor's queen is a living dead?!"
He pulled his hand away in shock, "What! There is such a thing?"
"yes."
"Back then, the eldest prince, Prince Lin, took advantage of the Crown Prince and Crown Princess' wedding banquet to launch a rebellion. He murdered his father, seized the throne, and poisoned the Crown Prince. It was only with great difficulty that the current emperor put down the rebellion. It was during that time that the Empress was severely injured and left in a state of near-death while protecting the emperor."
"Because of the Queen's serious injury, the Emperor later captured Prince Lin alive, tore him and his followers apart, and then dumped their bodies into the mountains to feed the wolves. I even secretly witnessed the scene; the blood flowed like a river!"
"Now the imperial doctors in the Imperial Hospital are dying one after another, and the Empress has not woken up in a year."
"Even the government hasn't given up yet?"
"I haven't given up yet. I'm even holding a birthday party for the Queen."
This person was amazed when he heard it when he first came to the capital.
——
In the palace.
The Queen Mother was furious and smashed a set of precious tea sets in front of Song Yanting.
"I've already said it, if you want her to be the queen, then I have no objection, but you can't also not take concubines, right?"
Song Yan yawned lazily after hearing this.
"Grandmother, please don't be so angry."
"When Yangyang wakes up, the prince and everything will be there, no need to rush."
The Queen Mother pointed at Song Yanting's nose and cursed with gritted teeth: "Wait, wait! I've been waiting for a year!"
"I don't care, you have to choose a few concubines to enter the palace today."
"Okay." Song Yan agreed immediately after hearing it.
"You agreed?" The Queen Mother thought he had finally let go of his obsession.
The next moment, I heard him say, "Pick one and kill them together."
"A bunch of old bastards treated me like snakes and scorpions back then, and now they're thinking about sending their daughters to the palace every day. Doesn't that make me embarrassed?"
"You!" The Queen Mother was so angry that her eyes turned black.
"I can't control you anymore. Get out of here! Get out!"
"Okay." Song Yanting stood up and walked out, "Then my grandson will come to pay his respects to you tomorrow."
The Queen Mother shouted angrily: "Get out!"
Back on the dragon sedan chair leading to the Purple Palace, Song Yanting propped up his chin and asked Yuan De, "How are the preparations for today going?"
Yuan De replied: "Everything is ready. The ingredients for the longevity noodles are also ready. We are just waiting for the emperor to make them."
Song Yanting glanced at the sky and said, "It seems that the time is almost here, let's set off."
"yes."
......
After chatting with the old man in the small bamboo house for a year, Youyang finally returned to her body.
After opening her eyes, the feeling in her limbs slowly returned. Her legs and hands were weak. It took her a long time to adjust before she could barely control her body and sit up.
"That old man finally got me back after all his hesitation. I wonder how Song Yanting is doing now."
If she found out that he had another woman while she was unconscious, she would turn around and leave, going back to become an immortal.
"Hiss—my neck!" You Yang just moved his neck and heard a crisp sound from the bones.
She touched her neck and closed her eyes in pain.
"Clang."
The sound of shattering ceramic startled her and she opened her eyes again.
He found that the soup noodles were scattered all over the floor, and Song Yanting was looking at him in a daze.
You Yang opened her arms to him.
"Hey Song Yan, listen! I'm back! Did you miss me?"
Hearing this voice again, which he could only hear in his dreams every night, Song Yan was moved to tears.
Having lost his usual calmness and composure, he strode to You Yang and hugged her tightly, wishing he could crush her into his body.
Choking with sobs, he said, "I miss you so much, so much."
You Yang also hugged him back tightly, buried her face in her chest, closed her eyes and felt his warmth and his breath.
"I missed you, too."
You Yang had just woken up and had not yet fully adapted to her body. Song Yanting personally carried her to meals and rest throughout the day, and brought water to her mouth.
You Yang also told him why she had not woken up and why her personality had changed so drastically.
The news of You Yang's awakening spread like wildfire. The Queen Mother was the first to rush to see her. Seeing that she was fine, she couldn't help but hold her and talk to her for a long time. If Song Yan hadn't driven her away, she would have continued chatting.
Afterwards, Song Yanting directly rejected all those who came to visit You Yang on her behalf.
You Yang was angry with him for this.
"Why are you so overbearing? They come to see me because they care about me."
Song Yanting held her in his lap and kissed her puffy little face, "I can still care about you in the future. You've been in a coma for a year. No matter what you say today, I'm the only one who can accompany you."
You Yang felt sweet in her heart, and raised her chin proudly, "Then I will reluctantly agree to your request."
"Today is my birthday. Has the emperor made any preparations?" You Yang looked as if she would go back to sleep immediately if you said she was not there.
Song Yanting scratched her nose and coaxed her, "Of course there is, my little queen. I'll take you to watch the fireworks at night."
"Okay, okay." You Yang smiled like a flower. As long as she was with Song Yanting, she would be happy to do anything.
At night, the two changed into casual clothes and went out in a carriage.
You Yang hadn't been to the night market for a long time. She kept clamoring for Song Yan Ting to accompany her and insisted on walking on her own.
Song Yan dared to take her with him only after hearing that there was no way to arrange secret guards for her.
You Yang's desire to buy was so strong that she pulled Song Yan to look here and there, and even bought two sugar figures that looked like each other.
On the way, they passed by a tea stall by chance. Cangming, dressed in white, and Yiming were sitting at the tea stall on the street drinking tea.
The two of them watched You Yang pull Song Yanting and act like a spoiled child. Yi Ming turned around and noticed Cang Ming's expression, "You've raised him for so long, are you really willing to let him go?"
Cang Ming raised his hand and touched his white hair. "Repel the enemy invasion. Even if it means self-igniting my lifespan, this is my mission as the sect leader."
"Now my life is coming to an end..." He was silent for a long time, swallowing his reluctance and unwillingness, "As long as she is happy."
You Yang seemed to have sensed something and felt that the figure of the person sitting on the tea stall just now was very familiar. She suddenly turned around and looked at the tea stall, but saw only empty tables and chairs.
Song Yanting followed his gaze and asked, "Are you thirsty?"
You Yang touched his head and shook his head, "No, I just felt like I saw someone I know."
"Forget it, let's go watch the fireworks. Come on, let's go. I can't walk anymore."
Song Yanting hugged her and walked forward, "If you can't walk, I'll carry you on my back. How can I tire you out?"
When they arrived at the lake, they found that delicious food and fun things had already been prepared in the pavilion. Among the exquisite and beautiful lanterns, Youyang also saw the fox lantern that she and Song Yanting saw when they first went to the market.
"You go and play first, I have something to take care of." Song Yanting sent her to the pavilion to sit down before leaving.
You Yang thought he had some government affairs to deal with so he didn't ask any more questions and let him go.
"Fifth brother, you still haven't learned your lesson. How can you handle my queen?" In a corner where Youyang couldn't see, Song Yanting found Song Yunlan.
Ever since he heard that You Yang had woken up, he had always wanted to see her. When he heard that Song Yanting was going to bring her out, he followed her.
"I've lost my chance." Song Yunlan muttered to himself.
"Tomorrow I will leave for the border. The remaining poison in my body cannot be eradicated, and I don't know how long I can live. Perhaps this is the last time we will see each other again. Brother Royal, I just want to see her."
Song Yanting and Song Yunlan stood side by side, staring at Youyang's back from afar for a long time without saying a word, their expressions unclear in their deep eyes.
After a long silence, Song Yunlan suddenly spoke, "I hope you won't let her down. Otherwise, even if the poison takes effect, I will crawl back and take her away and set her free."
Song Yan snorted coldly, "You won't have this chance."
He walked away, "It's late at night and the weather is cold. I'll take the King of Qi back."
At his command, Cang Lin appeared beside Song Yunlan.
"Your Highness, Prince Qi, please."
"Bang-bang-bang" beautiful fireworks bloomed in the endless night sky.
Song Yunlan took one last look at You Yang and turned away.
Youyang held the fox lantern with her beautiful eyes wide open, staring intently at the fireworks blooming in the night sky.
Suddenly, a hot body pressed against me from behind.
Song Yanting's scent lingered at the tip of her nose.
"Does it look good?" Song Yan asked.
You Yang turned her head and glanced at Song Yanting, who rested his head on her shoulder. "It looks good."
She turned around, stood on tiptoe and kissed Song Yanting on the lips.
"Thank you, I like it very much, husband?"
Song Yanting took the initiative to deepen the kiss.
You Yang wrapped her arms around Song Yanting's neck and responded to him.
Song Yanting put his arms around her waist, their foreheads touching.
Amid the sound of fireworks, they only had eyes for each other.
Song Yanting rubbed her earlobe and said in a muffled voice, "Thank you for coming back to me."
"I love you."
You Yang pinched his earlobe with a coquettish look on her face.
"I love you too."
