In the dead of the night, the lights in Leisurely Cloud Pavilion were still lit.
Han Yunxi had met with trouble. She had originally planned to hang Su Xiaoyu for a few days to break her willpower and make her confess. But who would have thought that Su Xiaoyu would be so stubborn. She had already starved herself twice, but she still did not say a word.
If this continued, Su Xiaoyu would really starve to death. The hidden guards had not found anything yet. Once this girl starved to death, there would be no clues left.
At this time, Han Yunxi was only wearing a dudou, revealing her fragrant back. She was lying on the bed, letting Baili Mingxiang change her bandages while talking about Su Xiaoyu.
These days, it was hot and easy to sweat. Adding on the fact that she could not lie on the bed, the two ulcers on her back had not completely scabbed over yet.
"In my opinion, that girl is using this method to threaten me. She knows that I won't kill her." Han Yunxi said in displeasure.
"Doesn't Princess Consort know a method to make her life worse than death?" Baili Mingxiang lightly said.
Han Yunxi thought for a moment and said, "Starve her for another day. If she still doesn't confess, then put her down. This princess will personally interrogate her!"
Baili Mingxiang had already taken off the gauze. Taking the medical cotton swab that Han Yunxi had provided, he began to gently apply the medicine.
As soon as the cold ointment touched her burning wound, Han Yunxi immediately exhaled a long breath. "Mmm … it feels so good! Apply more, don't be afraid of me hurting. "
At this time, the wound was the most uncomfortable.
The wound had not completely scabbed over, so the pain and burning sensation coexisted. The most frightening thing was that it was becoming more and more itchy. Han Yunxi could not help but want to scratch it. So, when she applied the medicine, she would feel very comfortable.
She was a medical practitioner and would often tell her patients to abstain from this and that. But when she was injured, she really could not endure all kinds of taboos.
Seeing her enjoying herself, Baili Mingxiang couldn't help persuading her, "Esteemed Princess Consort, it's such a hot day. You should lie down tomorrow and don't move around. Bear with it for a while. Once your wounds have scabbed over, you can do whatever you want."
The wound on his back was heavily bandaged. It was very difficult for him to wear clothes and move around. The best way was to lie on his stomach with his upper body naked. From time to time, he would remove the bandage to prevent the wound from sweating. But this master was very active and couldn't lie down.
Han Yunxi did not answer. She waved her hand to signal Baili Mingxiang to continue applying the medicine. She silently thought about how to interrogate Su Xiaoyu. She was so stubborn at such a young age. She wanted to see how stubborn she could be!
At this time, Long Fei Ye had already arrived downstairs. He signaled Granny Zhao, who had bumped into him, to keep quiet.
Because of Tang Li's concealment, Long Fei Ye still didn't know that Han Yunxi was scalded, but Granny Zhao thought that he knew.
Seeing His Highness Duke of Qin silently walk upstairs, Granny Zhao couldn't understand!
Esteemed Princess Consort had been scalded for so many days, but His Highness had only just returned. Now that he was back, he was still slowly walking upstairs. What was going on?
With this master's temperament, shouldn't he have been furious by now?
But … but why did she see a trace of joy on this master's face?
Granny Zhao almost suspected that she was dreaming. After esteemed Princess Consort was scalded, although only Wang Laifu and Su Xiaoyu were punished, everyone's hearts were still in their throats. This was because His Highness Duke of Qin's return was everyone's nightmare.
Although Granny Zhao wanted to follow him upstairs, she only dared to follow him with her eyes.
Long Fei Ye had indeed deliberately lightened his footsteps and silently walked up the stairs. This should be the first time he had returned from a busy day. As soon as he entered the estate, he went straight to Leisurely Cloud Pavilion.
Han Yunxi's background had finally been clarified. Even though he had confirmed her identity as the orphan of the Western Qin imperial family, he was still delighted.
He wasn't afraid of this kind of truth. He was afraid that he would never be able to find the truth. He was afraid that when the Seven Noble Families came knocking on his door, he wouldn't be able to grasp the exact truth.
Now that everything was clear, he could do many things without worry. His heart could also be firm.
In the middle of the night, he actually didn't know why he had come here to find her. In any case, he came as soon as he returned.
"Oh … so comfortable! Again! "
Suddenly, Han Yunxi's ecstatic voice drifted over. Long Fei Ye abruptly stopped in his tracks, his handsome and cold face instantly stiffening.
"It's too comfortable. Harder, faster!"
"Not enough, not enough. Harder … yes, harder … yes, just like that … oh … so comfortable!"
Han Yunxi sighed again and again, her voice growing louder and louder.
Long Fei Ye's face not only stiffened, but also his entire body.
What was that woman doing in the room? What … did she mean by shouting like that?
Long Fei Ye suddenly narrowed his eyes and viciously kicked open the door. "Bam …"
The sudden loud noise startled Han Yunxi and Baili Mingxiang. They turned around and saw the man who had been haunted by their dreams walk around the screen and appear in front of them.
He was dressed in black and looked travel-worn. His face was as cold as frost, and his handsome brows were tightly knitted.
"Your Highness?" Han Yunxi was very surprised.
Baili Mingxiang was even more surprised. He was so frightened that his hand trembled. The cotton swab stabbed heavily into Han Yunxi's wound, piercing through the thin layer of scabs.
"Ah …"
Han Yunxi immediately screamed. It hurt! It hurt more than rubbing salt on her wound! It hurt so much that she felt unwell.
Baili Mingxiang was shocked and hurriedly tried to salvage the situation. "Esteemed Wangfei, I'm sorry! Mingxiang didn't do it on purpose. "
Long Fei Ye was very surprised. He didn't expect to see such a scene. What happened to Han Yunxi's back?
He strode forward and took a closer look. Only then did he see the miserable state of Han Yunxi's back. He was stunned at first, then angrily asked, "What happened?"
His voice was terrifyingly cold. Baili Mingxiang's heart and hands trembled, but Han Yunxi was already used to it.
She took a few deep breaths to relieve the pain before replying, "Your Highness still doesn't know about Su Xiaoyu's matter?"
"Su Xiaoyu?" Long Fei Ye was confused.
He stared at Han Yunxi's wound. The more he looked, the more it hurt his eyes. When he saw Baili Mingxiang's trembling hands applying medicine, he became impatient and angrily said, "Get lost!"
Baili Mingxiang's head was almost buried in her heart. She said that she would let go of her heart and face it calmly, but when she faced this man, she still couldn't maintain her usual calm and composure. A trace of bitterness uncontrollably crept into her heart.
She silently got up and retreated to the side to wait.
"Su Xiaoyu is …"
Han Yunxi looked back and was about to explain when Long Feiye said sternly, "You shut up for your lordship and lie down properly!"
Han Yunxi was frightened. She silently lowered her head and didn't dare to move.
Long Fei Ye carefully examined her wound. He could tell at a glance that it was a burn. Moreover, it had been a few days and hadn't healed.
Damn it, Tang Li didn't report such an important matter to him. Did that guy want to scram back to the Tang Sect?
"Just this medicine?" Long Fei Ye asked Baili Mingxiang.
"Yes." Baili Mingxiang didn't dare to raise her head.
"It hasn't healed even after applying it for several days. Which quack prescribed it?" Long Fei Ye angrily said again.
His entire person was in a state of irritation, and he was easily ignited. Not only Baili Mingxiang, but even Han Yunxi had never seen His Highness Duke of Qin so agitated before.
Han Yunxi obediently lay down and didn't make a sound. Although it hurt, there was a trace of sweetness in her heart.
Sigh, she found that she liked this guy more and more when he was angry.
Seeing that esteemed wangfei didn't make a sound, Baili Mingxiang could only brace herself and reply, "Reporting to Your Highness, this medicine was … was prescribed by esteemed wangfei herself."
Han Yunxi buried her head in the quilt and snickered.
"Don't you have any other medicine?" Long Fei Ye asked unhappily.
Only then did she reply, "This medicine is the best. It's hot and the wound heals slowly. There's no other way."
She was clearly the one who moved too much and sweated too much, okay! Baili Mingxiang knew the truth, but how could she dare to say anything?
Long Fei Ye didn't ask any more questions. His handsome face was tense, and his entire body was exuding an aura of anger that warned strangers not to come near him. However, his movements were as gentle as water.
He didn't use a cotton swab, but instead used his fingertips to apply the ointment gently on Han Yunxi's wound. His movements were very, very gentle, gentle, and delicate, as if he was protecting and caressing her.
This kind of comfort couldn't be compared to Baili Mingxiang's gentle application of the cotton swab. This kind of comfort seeped into her bones and seeped into her heart.
Han Yunxi lay sprawled against the cool silk blankets, her entire body relaxing. She could give her entire back to this man now. She really hoped that he'd never stop, that he'd keep caressing her like this.
At some point, Baili Mingxiang had secretly raised her head to look. She saw His Highness Duke of Qin's furrowed brows and lowered eyelids. Then, she saw the gentleness in his hand as he held the sword. Only then did she realize that this man also had times when he felt heartache for a woman. So this was what his heartache looked like.
Looking at him made her … feel heartache as well!
Long Fei Ye had practiced martial arts since he was a child and had dealt with countless assassins. As long as he wasn't poisoned, treating all kinds of wounds was a common occurrence for him.
He treated Han Yunxi's two ulcers, leaving only the scab that Baili Mingxiang had just pierced.
He looked at it seriously, his brows furrowed. He saw that there was some water on the wound, so it was undoubtedly not a light injury.
If he applied medicine in this kind of situation, it would definitely sting, but he had to apply medicine.
Long Fei Ye hesitated. Leng glanced at Baili Mingxiang. Although he didn't say anything, the look in his eyes was enough to break Baili Mingxiang's heart.
She tightly bit her lip and silently knelt down. "This servant deserves death for hurting esteemed wangfei!"
Long Fei Ye didn't even look at her, but Han Yunxi turned her head to look. "Mingxiang, what are you doing? Get up! "
Unexpectedly, Long Fei Ye's large hand reached over and turned her head so that she could continue to bury it. He said unhappily, "Don't move!"
Leng, he ordered Baili Mingxiang, "Withdraw!"
Baili Mingxiang silently withdrew. Han Yunxi's head was pressed down by Long Fei Ye's large hand, so she couldn't move at all. Even speaking was difficult. If this guy continued like this, even breathing would be difficult.
However, Long Fei Ye quickly released his hand and said indifferently, "It'll hurt. Don't endure it. If it hurts, cry out."
Han Yunxi focused on breathing in the fresh air and ignored him. She could still endure pain, as long as it didn't come as suddenly as just now.
Baili Mingxiang had already reached the door and was about to close it. When he heard these words, his heart was filled with emotion.
How many men, when coaxing someone, would always say, "It'll hurt. Endure it." or "It'll hurt. Endure it. Don't cry."
However, His Highness Duke of Qin had said, "It'll hurt. Don't endure it."
Baili Mingxiang thought, If that's the case, it won't hurt no matter how serious the injury is, right?
