"What, aren't you afraid of pain?" Han Yunxi asked with interest.
"I'm afraid!" Baili Mingxiang was very honest.
How could she not be afraid of pain? She had been in pain for more than ten years. It wasn't that she wasn't afraid of pain, she was just used to it.
She had lost her mother when she was young and was sent to the Tang Sect to ingest poison to nourish her blood. No one had ever asked her if she was afraid or if it hurt.
The most common sentence her father had told her was, "Mingxiang, soldiers have to be soldiers."
None of her older sisters knew about the Beauty's Blood. They were all jealous that her father had placed her in an important position and sent her to the Tang Sect. She didn't need to marry and could stay in General Baili's estate to serve His Highness Duke of Qin.
After so many years, she never thought that the first person to show concern for her would be His Highness Duke of Qin's official consort, Han Yunxi.
"If you're afraid, then why are you still showing off?" Han Yunxi smiled.
"I …" Baili Mingxiang suddenly didn't know how to respond.
Showing off?
She … fine, she admitted that Han Yunxi's words had struck a chord in her heart.
Although she didn't want to admit it, she knew that she was showing off. But so what if she was showing off? Hadn't she persevered until now?
Her life wouldn't be long. She thought that she should show off for the rest of her life.
As they spoke, Baili Mingxiang suddenly shivered. She had been fine before, but now she suddenly felt cold.
The poison was acting up!
She was all too familiar with this feeling. Soon, she would be so cold that her entire body would tremble uncontrollably.
She made a prompt decision. "Esteemed wangfei, please wait outside for a moment. I …"
Before she could finish speaking, Han Yunxi stood up. She didn't walk out, but silently lit the stove in the room. Then she poured a cup of hot water and dissolved the painkillers in it.
She hadn't even shown it, but Han Yunxi had seen through her.
"Esteemed wangfei, I'm fine. Can you leave first?" She was actually still able to smile.
Han Yunxi gave her a serious negative answer. "No!"
Baili Mingxiang just didn't want Han Yunxi to see her most embarrassed and unbearable side. Han Yunxi didn't leave, so she just smiled helplessly and didn't say much.
She sat beside the stove, curled up her body, and rubbed her hands together to keep warm. At this time, the cold air had already begun to emerge from her feet and scalp, and gradually spread throughout her body.
That feeling was as if a large basin of cold water was slowly poured over his head. The cold water slowly soaked his entire body and invaded every pore.
Baili Mingxiang curled up into a ball. Soon, his originally pale face turned purplish green. His lips were clearly bitten, but they were still pale and bloodless.
Just how cold was it?
However, under such circumstances, she was still able to maintain her last bit of rationality. She remained silent and did not utter a single word of "Leng".
If it was someone else, they might not be able to tell that she was in pain, but Han Yunxi could tell at a glance.
She made a prompt decision. "Lie down on the bed, I'll give you some acupuncture to keep you warm."
The cold poison's coldness came from within the body, so no matter how much she tried to warm it, it would not dissipate. She could only start from within.
"Princess Consort, it's no use. I know my own body."
Baili Mingxiang's lips were clearly trembling, but she was still able to smile. Her smile was gentle, tranquil and beautiful, just like a warm day in winter.
"I know it better than you! Quickly! "
Han Yunxi was anxious for her. She grabbed her hand, but who knew that when she grabbed it, she would unconsciously withdraw her hand!
So cold, so cold!
That cold air was contagious. She could even feel the cold air invading her hand.
Han Yunxi didn't do it on purpose, but she did withdraw her hand.
"Princess Consort, it's fine. It's over." Baili Mingxiang comforted her.
"It's not over yet!"
Han Yunxi was infuriated for no reason. She didn't wait for Baili Mingxiang to lie down. She sat behind Baili Mingxiang and immediately took out her golden needles.
Although it was difficult to find an acupuncture point through the clothes, Han Yunxi's movements were as smooth as moving clouds and flowing water. She was very experienced and nimble.
Not long after, Baili Mingxiang's back was covered with golden needles. If she could, she wanted to help Baili Mingxiang get rid of the cold poison, but she couldn't.
She could only use the needles to disperse the cold air, not in a fit of pique.
"Is it better?" Han Yunxi asked with concern.
Baili Mingxiang finally let out a sigh of relief. "Un, it's not that cold anymore."
"I told you it would be useful!" Han Yunxi unconsciously let out a breath of turbid air. She had encountered many difficult cases, but she had never felt as depressed as she did today.
She could clearly cure the poison, but she couldn't. It was truly depressing!
Han Yunxi was not idle. The cold poison would cause pain all over the body. She took out the painkillers that had been dissolved in the water. Based on Baili Mingxiang's situation, she estimated that she would need to increase the dosage.
She took out another painkiller and dissolved it in the water. This method would allow the medicine to be absorbed faster and the painkillers would be better.
However, when Han Yunxi dissolved the painkiller, Baili Mingxiang couldn't help trembling.
Actually … …
The golden needles on her back had no effect at all. She was still very, very cold. She had lied to Han Yunxi!
At first, it was only her hands that were trembling, but soon her entire body was trembling. She tightly pursed her lips, afraid that her teeth would chatter.
"Drink a bowl first. Only then will the medicine be effective."
Han Yunxi raised her head. She had just brought the bowl of medicine over when her hand froze. She had seen the truth.
"You lied to me!"
"Princess ….. Princess consort, it's fine ….. You can leave first. I ….. will be better soon."
"There's no effect at all?" Han Yunxi was angry and shocked.
Baili Mingxiang did not answer her. That pale smile was indescribably sad. She stood up with difficulty and walked towards the bed.
Han Yunxi quickly stood up to help her. This time when she touched her hand, Han Yunxi did not let go, but it was so cold that her hand was trembling.
Baili Mingxiang's situation was several times worse than she imagined!
Was it because of her special constitution?
At this time, Han Yunxi did not have time to think about it. She helped Baili Mingxiang to the bed and took out the golden needles before letting her lie down.
Using the needles was more direct than any other method of warming up. If the needles were useless, then other methods would be even more useless.
This was the first time in Han Yunxi's life that she did not know what to do with a patient.
Baili Mingxiang curled up in the blankets and began to tremble even more. It was as if she could not stop trembling.
"Princess consort, I've been rude."
She said this and turned around with her back facing Han Yunxi.
After half an hour, Baili Mingxiang continued to tremble. The powerless Han Yunxi sat on the side. Looking at the trembling back, she felt a kind of sad and desolate feeling.
After the cold retreated, the pain came again. Han Yunxi carefully fed Baili Mingxiang two bowls of painkillers, but it was the same as before. The painkillers had no effect at all.
Baili Mingxiang did not say a single word of "pain". Her back was still facing Han Yunxi as she lay there for another half an hour.
It was so painful that she was covered in sweat. It was so painful that she bit her lip until it bled. It was so painful that she could not help thinking of her childhood. She thought of the lotus pond with the door open, and she thought of that cold as ice youth.
No one would ever know that the best painkiller was him.
Your Highness Duke of Qin, Mingxiang does not dare to hope for anything. I only hope that when the day comes that the Beauty's Blood matures, you will remember that there is a woman in this world called Baili Mingxiang.
Finally, the pain receded. Baili Mingxiang turned around. Her face was filled with exhaustion and her eyes were about to close.
"Go to sleep. I'll prescribe medicine for you," Han Yunxi said indifferently.
Baili Mingxiang smiled faintly, then quickly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Han Yunxi sat to the side, watching over her as she prescribed medicine. She prescribed a lot of medicine, so much that Baili Mingxiang had to take a poison every day.
Long Fei Ye said that a lifetime was crueler, but a cruel lifetime was the cruelest.
"Baili Mingxiang, you can either hurry up and die or come back to life!"
Han Yunxi muttered to herself. She had decided that she would help Baili Mingxiang cultivate the Beauty's Blood in the shortest time possible. At the same time, she would try her best to find a way to save her life in the next six months.
After going through so much, she could not die like this. She had to be stronger and live on. Only then would she be worthy of all the suffering she had suffered!
Before Baili Mingxiang woke up, Han Yunxi left, leaving behind a pile of poison.
As soon as Han Yunxi returned to the Duke of Qin's estate, she immediately shut herself in the study and meditated.
Her soul wandered into the large space of the detoxification system. The detoxification system had several poison manuals, and a few of them had records of the Beauty's Blood. She had to understand this thing thoroughly before coming up with a countermeasure.
However, just as Han Yunxi's soul was wandering, Zhao mama knocked on the door. "Esteemed Wangfei, Steward Luo has brought Su Xiaoyu."
Zhao mama knocked a few times, but Han Yunxi did not hear her. She was too engrossed.
"Granny Zhao, is the Princess Consort asleep?" Su Xiaoyu asked in a low voice. When she entered the estate, she was dressed in rags and her hair was unkempt. After being trained by Steward Luo for a few days, she seemed to have become a completely different person.
At the age of seven or eight, her facial features were exquisite and her temperament was clean. If she wasn't wearing the clothes of a servant girl, she would definitely be mistaken for a rich young miss.
"She just came back not long ago!"
Zhao mama was about to knock again, but Su Xiaoyu immediately stopped her. "Zhao mama, if she really is asleep, wouldn't we be disturbing her? Absolutely not! Esteemed Wangfei's sleep is more important than anything else. "
"You little girl, esteemed Wangfei didn't save you in vain! Hehe. "Zhao mama was quite fond of this little girl who acted like an adult.
"Zhao mama, what can I do? Just tell me what to do! "Su Xiaoyu was very enthusiastic.
"You should go and rest too." Granny Zhao smiled and went off to do her work.
Su Xiaoyu sat at the entrance and quickly noticed that there were many strange plants in the courtyard. She quickly ran over to ask Zhao mama about them.
"They are all poisonous, you absolutely cannot touch them!" Zhao mama finally remembered this matter.
Actually, the plants in the courtyard were all highly corrosive poisons that Han Yunxi was using to study the Poison Orchids. She wanted to first figure out how to hybridize them. If she couldn't grow them, then she would ask the Medicine Ghost Valley's Gu Qi Sha.
Zhao mama only knew that these plants were poisonous. As for what kind of poison it was, she didn't know.
"Oh." Su Xiaoyu nodded.
Not long after, Han Yunxi came out of the study and saw Su Xiaoyu sitting at the entrance. She had been too busy and had almost forgotten about this little girl.
"Little girl, you're here?" Han Yunxi asked with a smile.
Su Xiaoyu turned around and was pleasantly surprised. "Esteemed Wangfei, you're awake! Do you want to bathe? This servant will help you bathe. "
Eh …..
Why would she want to bathe in the middle of the day?
