143 “Drunken Bones (Guyan 1v1 High H)” comes true
byYan Zhaozhao’s consciousness was drowsy, and she seemed to hear Xie Ciyan’s voice still in her ears.Her palms were warm, and she subconsciously clenched those warm palms. She struggled to open her eyelids, and the first thing that caught her eye was Xie Langjun’s face that could make everything eclipse, but there was a little bit of tiredness between her beautiful eyebrows.
Seeing that she had woken up, Xie Ciyan looked happy, and hurriedly came closer and touched her forehead, and asked softly: “Do you feel something wrong? Huh?”
The bone-gnawing pain that seemed to be crushing her internal organs had disappeared. She only felt that her whole body was limp and she couldn’t exert any strength.I wanted to speak, but found that my throat was dry and hoarse, and it was difficult to even make a sound.”Water…”
Xie Ciyan hurriedly stood up and poured a glass of warm water. He gently held the woman whose face was still as pale as paper in his arms, letting her lean against him, and then fed her the warm water in his hand bit by bit.
After the warm water entered her throat, Yan Zhaozhao felt much more comfortable all over. Her lips also regained a little rosiness, and she became more energetic when she looked at the person.She pressed her forehead against his soft neck, nuzzled him like a lazy cat, and said in a soft voice, “I’m fine.”
Xie Ciyan didn’t dare to be careless at all, and hurriedly called Doctor Shen loudly.The rooms in the inn were very close together, and the sound insulation was also very poor. When he shouted, Dr. Shen, who was still studying the heartbroken grass in the next room, heard it clearly. He quickly put down the silver needle in his hand, picked up the medicine box and went to the next door.
Doctor Shen took Yan Zhaozhao’s pulse carefully, not daring to slack off at all. He bowed respectfully to her for a long time to show his offence, and then spoke, with a serious tone that could not hide the joy.”Your Majesty, please be at ease. Your Majesty is fine. The poison of the Heartbroken Grass has been cured. Your Majesty is just a little weak now. She will be able to recover if you take good care of her.”
He bowed to Yan Zhaozhao, “If the empress can trust me, I will take care of the phoenix body from now on.” He glanced at Xie Ciyan and continued, but this time there were more hints in his words.”I will try my best to take good care of my empress, and live up to the great trust that the emperor and empress have in me.”
He thanked Yan Zhaozhao and couldn’t help but lower his eyes and glanced at Yan Zhaozhao. His eyebrows were full of caress, and then he solemnly said to Imperial Physician Shen: “Then I would like to thank Imperial Physician Shen.”
Doctor Shen resigned and took the prescription to the dining room downstairs to prepare some warm and tonic medicine.
Yan Zhaozhao looked puzzled, feeling a little strange, and asked the man softly.”But what happened?”
“Well, that’s a good thing.” Xie Ciyan raised the corners of his mouth, his eyes were filled with undisguised joy, and his eyebrows spread unscrupulously in front of her, full of joy.”Mr. Shen will take good care of your body, and then you can give birth to our child as you wish.”
Yan Zhaozhao was still a little confused, and she didn’t realize the meaning of Xie Ciyan’s words for a moment. When she came back to her senses, her eyes suddenly widened, her face was full of disbelief, and her words were trembling slightly.”You, what you said…is it true?!”
The man gently stroked her silky green hair with his big palm, and his eyes were filled with the same joy, “How could I deceive you about such an important matter?” He explained patiently, “Mr. Shen has wonderful rejuvenation skills and superb medical skills. He has served our army for many years.He has detoxified a lot of poisons and treated countless injuries.If he says he can, he will definitely be able to.” He and Yan Zhaozhao’s fingers were interlocked, their foreheads were touching, and their eyes were looking at each other. He was as happy as a child who got candy, with a smile on his lips and a voice full of expectation.”Zhaozhao, we can have our own child.”
He was happy, and even more happy because he fulfilled Yan Zhaozhao’s deepest wish.His girl was so beautiful, so he shouldn’t have any regrets hidden in his heart. He just wanted her to be stable, happy and carefree for the rest of her life.
After staying with Yan Zhaozhao for a while, Huo Ran asked Bi Luo to deliver a message to him, saying that the person who poisoned him had been found, and the Yan family was involved, and asked him to come down and make a decision.He thanked Yan and asked Bi Luo to retreat first. He immediately tucked Yan Zhaozhao into bed and planned to let her have a good rest here while he went back.
However, Yan Zhaozhao suddenly grabbed the corner of his clothes as he was about to leave, shook her head at him, and said firmly, “I want to go too.” As if she was afraid that the man would reject her request, she continued: “I am also a member of the Yan family. How can I sit here and pretend to be deaf? I also want to know what happened.”
Xie Ciyan originally didn’t want her to hear such scandalous things, let alone make her unhappy because the Yan family was involved in the matter, but the moment she said it, he couldn’t refuse her even if he had thousands of reasons, so he had no choice but to agree.
Yan Zhaozhao’s face was filled with joy, and her twinkling eyes were so bright that people couldn’t help but feel soft in their hearts.He thought that even if Yan Zhaozhao wanted the stars or the sun in the sky at this moment, he would desperately just want to make the person in front of him happy and show an intoxicating smile.Xie Ciyan sighed softly and saw that her movements were a little weak, so he stepped forward and picked up the woman by the waist, and walked steadily to the main hall downstairs.
Although Yan Zhaozhao was a little embarrassed, she still didn’t struggle in the end. Instead, she rested her head on his generous chest with peace of mind, listening to his powerful heartbeat, and felt happy in her heart.Fortunately, God was kind to her and allowed her to wake up and see the person she loved. She could also keep her promise to him and live her life together with him.
Xie Ciyan slowly came down with the woman in his arms. When Huo Sui saw it, he was heartbroken, but he still turned sideways obediently. After he put the person firmly on the chair, he turned to the emperor in time and said, “Young Master, this person is the one who poisoned the porridge.” He glanced at Yan Zhaozhao without leaving any trace, and then continued: “The person who ordered him should be the concubine of the Yan family, Yan Bai.”
Although he already knew that the poisoning was related to the Yan family, the moment he heard Yan Bai’s name, Yan Zhaozhao couldn’t help but tighten his fingertips and his heart lifted.”But why did Yan Bai poison me?!”
Huo Sui glanced at her, with a hint of deep meaning in his eyes.”Miss, I misunderstood. The person Yan Bai poisoned was not you, but the young master.”
As soon as these words came out, Yan Zhaozhao’s expression suddenly changed, and he suddenly straightened up and looked at Xie Ciyan, who had no abnormal expression on his face.Her heart was trembling uncontrollably. They had been under the same roof, and she knew better than anyone else that Yan Bai was just a concubine who had not yet held an official position. Although he knew books and etiquette, he only obeyed his father’s words. He never had the courage to go back to Chang’an alone against the holy orders, let alone instruct someone to poison Xie Ciyan.
I am afraid that the person who really wants to poison Xie Ciyan is Yan Huai behind Yan Bai.
Thinking of this, Yan Zhaozhao couldn’t help but have a layer of cold sweat on her back. She never thought that her father would dare to do such a thing that would implicate the nine tribes!
Huo Sui informed Xie Ciyan of the results of the investigation one by one. All the evidence showed that the murderer wanted the emperor’s life. At this moment, this person, or this group of people, was dormant somewhere, hoping that their plan would succeed and poison the emperor in one fell swoop.
After Xie Ciyan heard this, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. He was extremely glad that the person who wanted to harm was him and not Yan Zhaozhao.He has been on countless battlefields, and his sword has no eyes. He has never been a person who is afraid of death. What he is more afraid of is that Yan Zhaozhao will leave before him, leaving him alone to survive in this world.He would rather go to hell alone than have her cross the Naihe Bridge first.
Suddenly a dark figure appeared in the inn and knelt down in front of Xie Ciyan. He was dressed in black robes and wearing a mask with his head bowed. “Sir, my subordinates have arrested Yan Huai and his party who are hiding in Chang’an on the orders of General Huo. They are now outside the inn.”
Xie Ciyan glanced at Huo Sui with admiration. In the short period of his absence, he was able to find the poisoner, and even more so the person hiding behind the conspiracy, and also let the secret guards catch the person in front of his eyes. He was really capable, no less than his great general Zhenyuan.
“Bring it in.” He lifted up his robe and stood next to the God Yan Zhaozhao. His back was straight. Even without the dragon robe, his majestic and formidable imperial demeanor was still intact.
Immediately, Yan Huai and Cheng Ying, whose hands were shackled, their concubine Yuan Niang and concubine Yan Bai were all brought into the inn.The secret guard exerted force on his hands and forced the group to kneel down. His eyes were full of hatred. When he saw Xie Ciyan still sitting in front of him unharmed, his eyes became even more fierce. He wished he could kill the man in front of him with a knife in his hand.
The rest of the people in the inn have been cleared away, leaving only Huo Sui and Bi Luo standing not far away for the emperor and empress to do their bidding.
A smile appeared at the corner of Xie Ciyan’s mouth, but the smile did not reach his eyes, but instead had a hint of coldness.”I remember that I once issued an imperial edict, asking your Yan family and other members of your clan to move out of Chang’an and not be allowed to return unless summoned. Is Prime Minister Yan treating my imperial edict as child’s play?”
Yan Huai snorted coldly and looked directly at the emperor in front of her with eyes filled with resentment. “Your Majesty misunderstood. I just missed my daughter too much, so I ignored my sacred order and came to the capital to see my beloved daughter. I think your Majesty will not argue with me too much.”
He seemed not to want to appear inferior in front of the emperor in front of him, so he straightened his back and held his head high, as if he was still Prime Minister Yan who was respected by thousands of people and was inferior to others.
A trace of ridicule flashed in Xie Ciyan’s eyes, and he couldn’t help laughing, “I wonder if the beloved daughter the Prime Minister mentioned is the legitimate daughter beside me, or the concubine imprisoned by me in the Xuanji Palace?”
“It’s Zhaozhao.” Although he said this, his eyes clearly had never seen Yan Zhaozhao even once from the moment he entered the inn.But he knew very well that the legitimate daughter he hated to see was now his biggest trump card. As long as she was there and as long as she was still the most important person in the emperor’s heart, he did not need to be afraid. The emperor would not be willing to kill Yan Zhaozhao’s only close relative in the world.
Xie Ciyan sneered unabashedly, as if he no longer wanted to have a false argument with the person in front of him, his eyes suddenly darkened, and there was a hint of sternness between his eyebrows, “I don’t know, the Prime Minister cares about Zhao Zhao to the point of leaving her a widow.” His voice was as cold as ice, “Conspiracy against the emperor is a major crime against the nine clans, is the Prime Minister so unafraid of death?”
