"It's late. Wash up and go to sleep. This has nothing to do with us. We'll be leaving tomorrow morning."
Qi Envoy Zuo Annian said to the people who were admiring the moon. He covered his mouth and yawned.
Sui Pai asked, "How are we going to wash up here?"
Zuo Annian touched his face. "Just one night. It doesn't matter if we wash up or not."
Envoy Chu Xiangyu, who was looking up at the moon, muttered, "Do you think Zhuge Xun and Tu Huaiyu are working together to put on a show?"
The other two were immediately alerted. Zuo Annian asked, "What do you mean?"
Chu Xiangyu turned around with his hands behind his back. "He dared to kill someone in this situation. Is that Niu Youdao really not afraid of death? The strangest thing is that none of Song Long's subordinates were able to stop him in time. They were all held back by Zhuge Xun and Tu Huaiyu. Is this a coincidence? "
Sui Pai and Zuo Annian fell into deep thought.
After a moment of silence, Sui Po said, "Based on what you're saying, could it be that the people from Goldprovince suddenly appeared to stop Song Long's men from attacking Niu Youdao? Could it be that the people from the Gold State were also involved? Otherwise, Niu Youdao will definitely die! "
Zuo Annian blinked. "Could it be that Zhuge Xun, Tu Huaiyu, and Jinzhou's people are putting on an act? Song Long doesn't have anything to do with Jinzhou's people, right? If there was, Song Long wouldn't dare to come. Besides, Song Long was a guest, and he was here to offer his blessings. Killing a guest before the birthday banquet wasn't justifiable! Besides, this act doesn't make sense. Do you think Zhuge Xun would let Tu Huaiyu slap him? I saw the palm print on his face clearly. He didn't go easy on him! "
Chu Xiangyu and Sui Pai's lips twitched at the mention of that slap. Tu Huaiyu's slap was really ruthless. Just thinking about it made them feel pain.
Thinking of this, the few of them shook their heads. It seemed that it really might be a coincidence. The pavilion was in chaos, and everyone was holding each other back. That Niu Youdao took advantage of the situation, and the commotion here naturally alerted the people from the Provincial Governor's Manor to come and stop them.
If it really was a coincidence, then that bastard Song Long deserved to die here!
"Sigh, let's go to sleep. Let's find a place to sleep and continue watching the fun tomorrow." Zuo Annian yawned and waved his hand, turning around to find a place to rest.
The others also dispersed. There was nothing to worry about. It was none of their business. Besides, the people from the Golden Province wouldn't dare to do anything to them. They would definitely let them go once they understood the situation.
Generally speaking, their treatment was considered good, and the house arrest was considered to have a certain degree of self-control.
On the other hand, the two parties involved were directly captured and locked up in the iron prison.
People were coming in and out of the cell. Niu Youdao, Yuan Gang and Fang Zhe were brought out. It seemed like they were being escorted out for interrogation.
Seeing Niu Youdao being escorted through the passageway, Huang Xusheng, who was also at the gate, suddenly rushed over. He grabbed the iron bars with both hands and roared, "Niu Youdao!"
With Song Long's death, he was in big trouble. As the leader of the entourage, Song Long had died in such a manner in front of so many people. He wouldn't be able to give an explanation to the Yan Imperial Court or his sect.
Niu Youdao suddenly turned his head back to glance at Chen Guishuo. He knew in his heart that Song Long didn't recognize him at all. If Chen Guishuo hadn't revealed his identity in the Golden Province incident, this wouldn't have happened. He was a little regretful that he hadn't killed Song Long back at Nanshan Temple!
Chen Guishuo felt a chill in his heart when he was stared at by Niu Youdao's cold gaze. He was clear in his heart that if it wasn't for the timely appearance of the people from the Provincial Governor's Manor, if it wasn't for the fact that Niu Youdao didn't have the energy to attend to other matters, Niu Youdao would have most likely killed him!
The incident of him killing Song Yanqing at Nanshan Temple was still fresh in his mind. Today, he saw Song Long being killed with his own eyes. Song Long was an envoy of a country. This fellow actually dared to kill him in public and even behead him in public. Was he crazy?
He only hoped that after this incident, Niu Youdao would be executed as soon as possible. Otherwise, he would have to hide from this madman. Otherwise, Niu Youdao wouldn't let him off!
The furious Huang Xusheng's heart was filled with suspicions. He kept feeling that there was something fishy about tonight's incident. No one here was able to save him in time.
Interrogation? The Provincial Governor's Estate was well aware of the entire process. Was there still a need to interrogate him?
The interrogation was naturally just a show. Niu Youdao was directly escorted to the Provincial Governor's Estate.
The matter with Niu Youdao was over, but the matter with the Provincial Governor's Estate wasn't over yet.
Inside the hall, when Hai Ruyue saw Niu Youdao walking over, she sighed in her heart. This person really did what he said he would do. He actually beheaded Song Long in public. He was really daring!
She naturally already knew the details of the incident at Fragrance Preserving Pavilion.
Niu Youdao came in and bowed. "Thank you, Princess Royal, for granting my wish!"
"Granting what wish? I didn't do anything. I don't know anything! " Hai Ruyue said indifferently. She directly tossed this matter aside. "I called you here because I wanted to ask you something. There won't be any more changes to the matter regarding the consultation, right?"
Yuan Fang looked calm on the surface, but he was very nervous in his heart.
Niu Youdao smiled. "Mister Hua's anger has subsided. You can consult the consultation in peace."
Hai Ruyue's spirits rose when she heard this. Although she was still suspicious, she still held onto some hope. After all, the other party was full of confidence and even used his life as a guarantee. Otherwise, he wouldn't have agreed to cooperate with Fragrance Preserving Pavilion. Of course, it was also because she didn't need to bear any responsibility for the matter at Fragrance Preserving Pavilion.
She was also afraid that the other party would cause trouble again. She asked, "Why don't we do it now? How about consulting the consultation now?"
Niu Youdao nodded. "Sure, but I have to remove the restriction on my body."
Hai Ruyue looked at Yuan Fang. Niu Youdao continued, "Actually, the real good doctor is me. I'm also the person who treated your son. I hid many things from you before. I really had no other choice. I hope that Princess Royal will be magnanimous enough to forgive me!" He cupped his hands in apology.
Hai Ruyue's expression instantly turned sullen. However, when she thought about how she still needed the other party to treat her son, she could only endure it for now. She gave Zhu Shun a look.
Zhu Shun immediately went out to summon a cultivator to remove the restriction on Niu Youdao's body. However, he stayed at the side, afraid that Niu Youdao would act recklessly.
Then, the group left the hall and walked into the depths of the inner courtyard. They arrived at Xiao Tianzhen's sleeping quarters.
There were maids lighting the room. In order to facilitate the consultation, Zhu Shun ordered that there were many lamps in the room. The room was brightly lit.
Under the thick blanket, Xiao Tianzhen's face was pale and his eyes were dark. He was obviously asleep.
Seeing her son like this, Hai Ruyue's expression was complicated.
She was sent to Yan as a hostage before she was even of age. The bitterness she felt was not known to outsiders. Later, she was forced to marry here. She married a sick man. Who could understand the bitterness in her heart? She finally gave birth to a son, but in the end, he was also a sick man. She didn't know what kind of sin she had committed in her previous life. She actually had to bear all kinds of retribution.
She remembered kneeling in front of her mother and crying. Her mother caressed her and told her that this was glory and wealth. She said that this was the life of a daughter of the imperial family. She couldn't avoid it and couldn't avoid it!
Her mother said that no matter what happened in the future, as a mother, she could only do her best to protect her life and ensure that she didn't have to worry about food and clothing. She couldn't give her anything else. She had to rely on herself. No matter what she did in the future, her mother said that she wouldn't blame her!
Zhu Shun walked in front of Niu Youdao and asked in a low voice, "Do I need to wake him up?"
Niu Youdao shook his head. He walked over and sat by the bed.
Zhu Shun went over to help. He gently lifted up the blanket and took out one of Xiao Tianzhen's hands.
Niu Youdao's fingers lightly placed on Xiao Tianzhen's pulse. The moment his fingertips touched Xiao Tianzhen's skin, he could feel the coldness. In this kind of weather, with such a thick blanket, he actually had this kind of body temperature? He subconsciously turned his head to look at the charcoal brazier in the room.
He calmed his heart and put away his distracting thoughts. He slowly closed his eyes and infused his zhenqi to investigate.
Under his inspection, he was secretly shocked. Xiao Tianzhen's meridians were frighteningly thin. They were like those of a child of a few years old. Moreover, they were extremely thin and brittle. Not only his meridians, but his blood vessels were also like this. Even his heart was the same. It could be imagined that this patient didn't dare to make any large movements in his daily life. Otherwise, he would be courting death.
This was a person who didn't have the joys of childhood. Niu Youdao concluded in his heart!
If it was just this, it would be fine. What was even more strange was that his meridians were naturally cold. This was the source of his low body temperature. Even the temperature of his blood was lower than that of a normal person.
Niu Youdao couldn't imagine that such a person could actually live until now. It was unknown how much effort the Provincial Governor's Residence had put in to protect him.
It was naturally nonsense for him to say that he was here to treat Xiao Tianzhen. He might as well say that he was here to confirm the situation. He couldn't just say whatever the situation was. He had to confirm whether Hai Ruyue was declining or not.
After obtaining confirmation, Niu Youdao silently circulated the Qi in his body.
The zhenqi in his body was different from ordinary zhenqi. It was divided into Yin and Yang and Qian Kun qi. This was probably the origin of the name of the Art of Heaven and Earth.
The Qi silently infused into Xiao Tianzhen's body. It spread along the meridians and covered Xiao Tianzhen's entire body. He wanted to try and see if he could disperse the cold qi in Xiao Tianzhen's meridians.
"Uh …" Xiao Tianzhen suddenly let out some noises as if he was sleep-talking.
Everyone's eyes immediately fell on his face. Hai Ruyue's eyes lit up and burst forth with extraordinary splendor. She noticed that her son's face was gradually regaining some color. Her slender fingers couldn't help but intertwine as she wanted to ask how it was. However, when she looked at the silent Niu Youdao with his eyes closed, she didn't dare to disturb him.
Zhu Shun's gaze towards Niu Youdao also revealed a little bit of expectation.
The room was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.
However, the situation wasn't as optimistic as they imagined. Only Niu Youdao himself knew the truth.
The situation of Xiao Tianzhen's meridians was really special. Niu Youdao had clearly used the Qi to disperse the cold qi in his meridians. However, when the Qi was withdrawn, the cold qi in his meridians came back again. It was unknown where it came from.
Niu Youdao had no choice but to use the Qi to spread through the meridians in his body and use the Qi to protect his meridians for a long time. He was prepared to cover his meridians for a while and warm up his whole body before taking a look.
Gradually, Xiao Tianzhen's complexion became rosy, and the dark blue color around his eyes gradually faded. His face revealed a rare sweet and comfortable expression.
Finally, it gradually became a little dry. His mouth murmured, "Hot … thirsty … water!"
Niu Youdao opened his eyes and looked at him.
Her son actually felt hot. Hai Ruyue was overjoyed and quickly approached the bed. The cultivator quickly stopped her, afraid that Niu Youdao would harm her.
However, Hai Ruyue waved her hand to let him go. She sat on the side of the bed and looked at Niu Youdao. Seeing that Niu Youdao didn't object, she tried to reach out her hand.
