There was a long whistle …
Suddenly, clouds of black fog appeared from all directions, covering the skies and covering the earth. It was as if they wanted to cover the entire sky.
A poisonous mosquito swarm. She didn't expect there to be so many of them, and they all obeyed this woman.
Han Yunxi was alarmed. She could actually control poisonous mosquitoes. No wonder this woman could hurt Long Fei Ye. She had some skills!
The woman whistled again. Suddenly, all of the black fog surged towards Han Yunxi like a huge wave.
"Long Fei Ye, if you don't want that woman to die, you'd better protect my life!" the female spy threatened as she retreated.
She'd been hiding in Tianning Country for so long, but she'd never seen Long Fei Ye touch a woman. He rarely even spoke to a woman, much less held one in his arms.
Today, he'd actually brought this woman here and held her in his arms. Even in a life and death situation, she couldn't help but be astonished. Who was this woman? What kind of weight did she have in Long Fei Ye's heart?
Just as the black mass was about to drown her, Han Yunxi glanced at Long Fei Ye and suddenly screamed, "Ah … I'm so scared!"
"Too scary! Your Highness, save me! Hurry and save me! "
"Sobsob … so disgusting, Your Highness, I'm so scared!"
… …
She screamed as she flailed her arms and legs wildly.
Long Fei Ye's eyes flashed with astonishment, but he quickly understood. His lips curved into a helpless smile that even he didn't notice.
Seeing this, the female spy grew smug and gave a cold snort. "Long Fei Ye, I'm sure you've seen quite a few of your subordinates poisoned, right?"
"Your Highness, she's threatening you. How scary!" Han Yunxi said anxiously.
Long Feiye had always wanted to end his battles quickly, even in the face of large-scale battles. He wouldn't waste any time on his enemies.
However, in the face of the female spy's threat, he was surprisingly patient, which also made the female spy relax her vigilance and did not suspect Han Yunxi.
She was full of confidence. She raised her eyebrows and sneered, "Long Fei Ye, if I die, she will die too. Also … you can forget about leaving this valley."
Unfortunately, Long Fei Ye's patience is always limited. His handsome cold face showed displeasure. In an instant, the long sword was on the neck of the female spy.
"You!" The female spy was shocked and angrily warned, "Long Fei Ye, have you thought it through?"
Long Fei Ye finally opened his mouth, his tone cold and merciless. "This prince will let you die … with grievances!"
As soon as his voice fell, Han Yunxi very tacitly stopped, the corners of her lips hooked up into a sly smile.
Seeing this, the female spy suddenly felt uneasy. "You …"
Unfortunately, it was too late. She saw Han Yunxi take out two bottles of mosquito killing agent. Like a princess in a fairy tale, she raised one leg and elegantly turned around on the spot. She also sprayed a circle of agent at the same time.
She saw the circle of black shadows shrink back. The female spy was dumbstruck, not knowing what was in Han Yunxi's hands.
Han Yunxi elegantly turned around a few more times and lightly waved her hand. Very quickly, the surrounding black shadows all retreated and quickly flowed away.
The female spy was flustered and exasperated. She didn't care about the sword on her neck and hurriedly whistled. However, no matter how she whistled, it was useless. Compared to obeying orders, the poisonous mosquito wanted to save her life more.
The female spy tried several times, but in the end, she was in despair. She looked at Han Yunxi in disbelief and asked, "You … what is that in your hands?"
Han Yunxi walked over, smiling with a harmless face, "His Highness said that he wants you to die with everlasting regret. Sorry, I can't tell you."
As soon as she finished speaking, Long Feiye's sword no longer held back. With a light flick, he sent a splash of fresh blood into the air. The female spy fell to the ground, her eyes wide open. Even in death, she didn't know how Han Yunxi had driven away the mosquitoes.
Han Yunxi squatted down and carefully scanned the long sword. She found that the poison on the sword was indeed the snake poison that Long Fei Ye had been poisoned by before. It seemed that this guy had been chasing this female spy for a long time. Previously, he asked her for the antidote because of this matter.
The Northern Li Country's spy knew how to use poison. Han Yunxi felt that this matter shouldn't be simple.
"You can tell that there's poison on her sword just by looking?" Long Fei Ye asked in puzzlement.
There were a lot of poisonous mosquitoes, and they also had a smell. Han Yunxi could smell it and it wasn't unbelievable. But, this long sword …
Han Yunxi stood up and calmly said, "I can smell it."
If Long Fei Ye believed her, then he would be a fool. Coldly, he looked at her and didn't say a word.
Han Yunxi helplessly shrugged her shoulders, "Actually, since I was young, I've been gifted. I'm very sensitive to poison. It's a pity that my father and the rest don't know about it."
As she spoke, she sighed. "Sigh, if only my mother was still alive. How good would that be?"
Although this sentence was perfunctory, but when she said it, Han Yunxi's heart still felt a little sad. Perhaps, this was this body's instinctive reaction towards her mother. Or perhaps, since she was young, she had no one to rely on, so she longed for that maternal love.
In her previous life, she didn't even know who her mother was. Now, although her mother was no longer around, she knew who she was and what kind of person she was. Occasionally, she could even hear legends about her. To her, this was already a very warm thing.
Seeing Han Yunxi's sad look, a complicated look flashed past Long Fei Ye's eyes but he didn't pursue the matter.
After finding the secret military missive on the female spy's body, he took Han Yunxi with him and left.
By the time they returned to the Duke of Qin's Residence, it was already afternoon.
The first thing Long Fei Ye did when he returned was to throw Han Yunxi a money pouch. Only then did Han Yunxi remember this.
She didn't feel embarrassed as she openly took out a three hundred taels banknote from Long Fei Ye's money pouch and laughed, "Thanks, it's clear now!"
Long Fei Ye didn't reply as he turned around and left.
Looking at his disappearing figure in the garden, Han Yunxi couldn't help but think, would this fellow stay over tonight? Or did he still have things to do?
She subconsciously wrapped her clothes around herself and only then did she realise that his cloak was still with her.
She originally wanted to chase after him, but on second thought, she decided to wash it clean before returning it to him.
Seeing Han Yunxi return wrapped in a man's cloak, little Chen Xiang trotted over, "Master, whose cloak is this? Where did you go? This servant couldn't find you this early in the morning. "
"I went for a ride." Han Yunxi pocketed the three hundred taels banknote, her mood exceptionally bright.
"This cloak …" Little Chen Xiang still wanted to ask.
Han Yunxi put her finger on her lips and made a "shh" sound. Little Chen Xiang didn't dare to bother her anymore.
The next evening, Han Yunxi went to deliver the cloak. She knocked on the door for a long time, but no one opened it. She pushed the door and realised that the door wasn't locked.
Did that fellow not have a habit of locking the door? Or was it too safe here?
Han Yunxi walked in and realised that everything was still the same as before, clean and decent. However, that iceberg really wasn't there.
Perhaps the Duke of Qin's Residence was just a place for him to sleep.
After leaving the cloak in the study, Han Yunxi didn't know why, but she couldn't help but sigh softly before shrugging her shoulders and leaving.
Over the past few days, she hadn't been idle. She'd added a few medicine cabinets and bookshelves to the Leisurely Cloud Pavilion's study, as well as bought a few medical books to read to fill in the gaps in her detox system.
Although she wasn't idle, her days were still comfortable. Still, she had no idea that Long Fei Ye, Grand Concubine Yi, or even the other mistresses of the imperial harem were all secretly investigating her.
Her father, Han Congan, had not only been summoned by the empress dowager, but Long Feiye as well. Because of this, Han Congan had to repeatedly search through Han Yunxi's rooms before she got married, hoping to find any clues or clues.
"Master, it's all been investigated. It's confirmed that the one at Leisurely Cloud Pavilion is the real Han Yunxi. Before she got married, the Han Family's servant girls and two young misses all saw her put on a red veil and put on a bridal sedan chair. From the Han Estate to the Duke of Qin's estate, they passed through the city and through the streets, so it was impossible to do anything. That night, the wedding nanny was on guard as well, "Chu Xifeng reported in detail.
"Did she treat the poison on her face in the bridal sedan chair?" Long Fei Ye asked.
"There was a scar before she got on the sedan chair, but it was gone after she got off. Chu Xifeng paused before adding, "Master, if esteemed wangfei could treat Princess Changping's poison with a single bowl of medicine, I don't think it'd be difficult for her to do it."
"Since she has both talent and looks, why hide it and let others roll their eyes at her?" Long Fei Ye asked again.
Actually, he had no interest in Han Yunxi in the past. No matter what kind of person she was, whether she was beautiful or not, this woman had been forced on him by the empress dowager and emperor. She'd never enter his eyes. He was even planning to chase her out of the Hibiscus Courtyard on their wedding night and send her to a side palace in the suburbs to be put under house arrest forever.
But Han Yunxi had saved him on their wedding night. Afterwards, she'd displayed medical skills and her way of handling matters, giving him surprise after surprise.
"Your Highness, it's better to be a fool than to be clever. As this subordinate sees it, if esteemed wangfei had revealed her talent and looks, she might not have been able to marry you," Chu Xifeng said with a smile.
These words made it sound like Han Yunxi really wanted to marry Long Fei Ye. All of her forbearance was for the sake of marrying him. At least, that was what Long Fei Ye heard.
Long Fei Ye looked over expressionlessly, but Chu Xifeng wasn't afraid of death. He actually said, "Master, as this subordinate sees it, esteemed wangfei likes you. This subordinate …"
But before he could finish, Long Fei Ye's cold gaze darkened. Chu Xifeng shuddered and tactfully shut his mouth.
The ignorant Han Yunxi was living very comfortably, but good days were always short-lived.
Just when she thought that Grand Concubine Yi would be quiet for a while because of Princess Changping, an unexpected problem came knocking on her door. It made it impossible for Grand Concubine Yi to have peace.
"Master, someone's come to ask for medical treatment again. They can't enter our estate, so they're waiting outside. I heard it's the Third Madame of Duke Zhenguo," little Chen Xiang reported, panting for breath.
It wasn't clear who started the rumors, but news of Han Yunxi curing Mu Qingwu spread like wildfire. Moreover, the more they spread, the more ridiculous the rumors became. They said she was modest and low-key, not useless trash, but a once-in-a-century genius.
Using all kinds of fictitious deeds, they made her sound as if she was the reincarnation of Hua Tuo. Difficult and complicated diseases that the imperial physicians and various divine doctors could not treat were all easily solved by her. Just a bowl of medicine would be effective.
Aside from that, there were even rumors that she was a benevolent divine doctor who didn't accept medical fees. Instead, she prioritized treating the poor first.
As a result, since last night, many family members of patients had heard the news and rushed over. Whether they were high-ranking officials, imperial relatives, or ordinary citizens, they all ran over to seek medical treatment.
The rumors had raised Han Yunxi so high and shaped her image so well. Now that a patient had come to seek medical treatment, she had to either clarify that she had no talent and become a laughingstock, or make a house call. If she refused, she'd be the subject of gossip.
Everything had happened too suddenly. To create such a big headline in the capital's circle of public opinion, it wasn't something an ordinary person could do.
Without a doubt, the person behind the scenes wanted to kill her by flattering her. Their intentions were too sinister to give her such a difficult problem.
