If it wasn't for Han Yunxi, Lady Helian and Yi 'er would've been chased out of the house by Lady Xu long ago.
The Han Family owed Han Yunxi so much, but Han Yunxi still tried her best to protect their most talented son even when she couldn't even protect herself.
Lady Helian admitted that she'd once suspected Han Yunxi and suspected that she was only trying to hold mother and son hostage so she could take the Han Family's pharmacopoeia and properties for herself. But Han Yunxi didn't. Everything she did was for the sake of the Han Family. She'd spent a lot of effort on Yi 'er and wanted him to become a man of indomitable spirit. She wanted him to shoulder the heavy responsibility of reviving the Han Family's pharmacies.
Han Yunxi doted on little Yi 'er just as much as his mother herself.
Seeing the stubbornness in Yi 'er's eyes, Lady Helian couldn't help but knit her brows.
What was Lady Helian worried about?
In the past, when Yi 'er said he wanted to repay his big sister, she'd always praise him for being sensible and teach him not to be ungrateful. But now, she was only filled with worry.
She wasn't afraid of anything but losing her son. Thus, there were some things she couldn't control!
"Seventh Madame, what are you spacing out for? Come drink some tea. "
Even though Han Yunxi was the high and mighty Qin Wangfei, she still treated Lady Helian with respect. In terms of seniority, she really did have to call Helian Zuixiang "Seventh Madame."
As soon as Lady Helian walked over, she pulled Yi 'er into her arms and asked about Han Yunxi's health as usual. Then she told her about the Han Family's Four Directions Pharmacy.
After chatting for a while, Han Yunxi told Gu Beiyue to rest before they left together.
As soon as they stepped out the door, Lady Helian asked in a low voice, "Yunxi, it's been so many years. Why hasn't there been any movement from your stomach?"
Urk …
Han Yunxi didn't expect this at all. Although she knew many people were concerned about this question, no one had asked her so directly ever since she'd been questioned at Tianning's imperial palace.
"It should be time for some movement …" she muttered to herself.
"His Highness Duke of Qin … doesn't want children?" Madame Helian's voice grew even softer.
Han Yunxi smiled. "I'm too busy. I don't have time."
"Then when do you want it?" Madame Helian muttered. "His Highness Duke of Qin isn't young anymore."
"You don't have any plans for the next year and a half, right? I'm busy too …" Han Yunxi wasn't making up an excuse. It was the truth.
Long Fei Ye was busy, so how could she be free?
In two days, she had an appointment to save Grand Concubine Yi, and in a few days, she had to prepare to ascend Celestial Mountain. Both were dangerous affairs, but she had been working hard on cultivating her poison storage space, hoping to break through to the second or third level as soon as possible. She hoped to be of help to Long Fei Ye.
She didn't even have time to fall in love, so where would she find the time to have children?
Thinking of this, Han Yunxi smiled.
"What are you laughing at?" Madam Helian didn't understand.
"It's nothing. You guys go ahead. I'll go find Ling 'er!" Han Yunxi said.
But Madam Helian didn't leave. "Yunxi, there's chaos in the north. You guys won't be leaving this time, right? South Ning is such a nice place. Don't keep going to dangerous places! "
"I'll go wherever Long Fei Ye goes. There's no danger with him around," Han Yunxi teased. She wouldn't tell anyone else about her trip to Celestial Mountain.
"A married daughter is like spilled water!"
Madam Helian was helpless, but little Yi 'er was delighted. "That's right! With His Highness Duke of Qin here, big sis won't be in any danger. Mother, don't worry. "
"Yunxi, why don't you come to the Han Estate for dinner tonight?" Madam Helian asked.
"No, I still have things to do tonight. Maybe another day."
Han Yunxi tactfully declined. Madam Helian didn't invite her again, but left with little Yi 'er.
"Mother, you go back first. I'll come back tonight. I have a lot of medical records to show master," little Yi 'er said seriously.
A complicated look flickered past Madam Helian's eyes before she murmured, "Yi 'er, why don't you stay at Pill Fiend Pharmacy tonight? Mother will come pick you up tomorrow."
Little Yi 'er immediately shook his head. "Big sis Chen Xiang isn't at home. I have to go back to keep you company."
"Silly child, mother is going to the temple. I might stay there tonight. Be good and stay with Doctor Gu. Mother will come pick you up tomorrow morning, "Madam Helian said seriously.
"Mother, why are you staying at the temple?" little Yi 'er didn't understand. In the past, his mother had never stayed out at night.
"There's a dharma assembly at the temple tonight." Madam Helian stroked little Yi 'er's head with a smile. "How can a child have so many questions? Hurry and go help out at the pharmacy. "
Little Yi 'er didn't think much of it and skipped towards the pharmacy. Once master and big sis were back, he felt like the world had turned beautiful again.
Madam Helian exhaled and hurried out the door. Su Xiaoyu happened to pass by and glanced at the figure in a daze.
She chased after her for a few steps before disappearing around a corner.
"Madam Helian? What's the rush? Are you in a hurry to reincarnate? "she muttered to herself.
Su Xiaoyu also went to the pharmacy and saw Mu Ling 'er personally checking the herbs. Little Yi' er was helping at the side. Han Yunxi wasn't there.
In fact, Han Yunxi had gone back to find Gu Beiyue. She had said that Gu Beiyue wanted to rest to send Madam Helian and little Yi 'er away.
When she returned, Gu Beiyue was still brewing tea. Only her cup was left on the table. Obviously, he knew she would come again.
"Doctor Gu isn't a counselor but a doctor. What a pity." Han Yunxi joked.
"It's just that I've been in the palace for so long that I'm used to observing people's expressions. Now I'm more careful, that's all," Gu Beiyue was very modest. "Esteemed wangfei, do you have something important to discuss?"
"His Highness and I will be going to Celestial Mountain at the beginning of next month. This trip … will be quite dangerous." Han Yunxi was very direct.
If she and Long Fei Ye could successfully descend the mountain on mid-autumn night, that would be the best. If they couldn't, Gu Beiyue was the person they trusted the most.
In fact, Gu Beiyue had already known about the trip to Celestial Mountain because Long Fei Ye had just talked to him when he arrived.
His face was full of shock. "What … His Highness Duke of Qin is Kenzō's closed-door disciple! Esteemed wangfei, did something happen? "
"That's Kenzō's family business." Han Yunxi was silent for a moment, then said seriously, "Gu Beiyue, you should be well aware of the War of the Three Kingdoms. The situation at the commander-in-chief's manor …"
Han Yunxi analyzed the situation in detail, including the threat of Northern Li and the strength of the Baili Navy.
Gu Beiyue didn't interrupt her, but listened to her carefully. "Esteemed wangfei, you've told this one so much. This one …"
"If His Highness and I haven't descended the mountain by mid-autumn, I hope you can assist General Baili at the commander-in-chief's manor. He's a military general, after all, and doesn't understand the ways of politics," Han Yunxi murmured.
Gu Beiyue smiled helplessly. "Esteemed wangfei, this one is only a doctor …"
"A doctor treats the heart, the nation, and the world. I can treat anyone!" Han Yunxi's face was serious, her eyes bright. "Gu Beiyue, just treat it as me …"
Before Han Yunxi could finish her sentence, Gu Beiyue cut her off. He never wanted to hear Han Yunxi say that word to him.
He didn't like it, nor did he have the right.
Yunxi, do you know? Towards you, I can only follow your orders in this lifetime.
A doctor treats the heart, the nation, and the world? Yunxi, I only hate that I couldn't treat myself. I couldn't recover my martial arts and protect you!
"I'm indebted to esteemed wangfei for thinking highly of me. If there's a need, this one will definitely do my best to cooperate with General Baili," Gu Beiyue respectfully bowed with clasped hands.
"I believe in you," Han Yunxi trusted her own judgment and intuition.
The two of them chatted idly until Mu Ling 'er came to find them.
"You really should rest. I've disturbed you," Han Yunxi said.
Gu Beiyue had already grown tired of Mu Ling 'er and Gu Qi Sha's constant bickering on his way back, so he didn't keep Han Yunxi.
Mu Ling 'er was about to enter the room when Han Yunxi pushed her out.
"Where's Gu?" Han Yunxi asked first.
Mu Ling 'er rolled her eyes at her. "I should be the one asking you!"
"He left. He shouldn't be back anytime soon. You don't have to wait. " Han Yunxi spoke honestly. "If you have time, go back to Medicine City and tidy up the Mu Clan. Don't let Lady Lianxin find you."
Mu Ling 'er's bright eyes immediately dimmed. She walked with Han Yunxi into the flower gardens in silence. Before she knew it, she'd hooked her arm around Han Yunxi's.
Han Yunxi only glanced at her without a word. After walking for a while, Mu Ling 'er finally spoke. "Han Yunxi."
"What?"
"Why is it so hard to like someone?"
"Tired?" Han Yunxi asked.
"Very tired." Mu Ling 'er replied honestly. "It's been so many years. He's always running away, and I'm always chasing after him. I've almost run all over Cloud Realm Continent, but I just can't catch him."
"You won't be tired if you don't like him, right?" Actually, Han Yunxi herself didn't understand.
"You'll die! You'll die if you don't like him! "
Mu Ling 'er blinked her big, bright eyes with determination. Han Yunxi was speechless. "Not to that extent."
"Will you stop liking the Long Fei Ye one day?" Mu Ling 'er asked.
"I've never thought about it." Han Yunxi didn't even consider this question.
"Aiya, you're different from us!"
Mu Ling 'er hung her head dejectedly, but she still raised it in the end with a proud expression. "Hmph, I'll wait! When he's old, there'll be a day when he can't run anymore! "
Mu Linger lifted her head to look at the skies, the gentle April sunlight shining down on her clean, stubborn face. Her heart was as firm as gold, her eyes sparkling as her lips quirked up. She was in the prime of her youth and beauty!
Gu, Ling 'er will wait for you until the end of time. I'll wait until the seas turn blue. I'll wait until prosperity falls. I'll wait until the years are peaceful.
But Gu Qishao, when will you … grow old?
Han Yunxi looked at Mu Ling 'er, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Mm, that's a good idea!"
"I'm serious!" Mu Ling 'er said loudly.
"I know, I know." Han Yunxi nodded repeatedly.
Night fell. Before leaving Pill Fiend Pharmacy, Han Yunxi told Su Xiaoyu to give the blood mushroom to Mu Ling 'er.
"Mistress, this is good stuff! You have to keep it for yourself! "Although Su Xiaoyu admired Mu Ling 'er, she still thought of Han Yunxi first.
"Lord Pill Fiend gave it to her. Take it," Han Yunxi ordered Coldly. Su Xiaoyu rubbed her nose and could only do as she was told.
Although this wasn't appropriate and was being nosy, Han Yunxi really felt sorry for Silly Ling 'er.
What girl wasn't silly in the face of love?
The only ones who weren't silly were those who had been hurt and no longer believed in love.
Seeing Long Fei Ye coming over, she restrained her thoughts. She knew that she was often very silly in front of Long Fei Ye.
On the way back, Han Yunxi tightly held Long Fei Ye's hand. Two days later, they arrived at Lost Void Lake as promised …
