Xie Hongyi treated the injured Jiang Zhi inside the carriage. He treated the man without much noise.
The snow outside is still falling, and the wind blowing makes a rustling sound and makes the air temperature cool. Xie Hongyi slightly shuddered as the wind shook the carriage.
Xie Hongyi let go of Jiang Zhi's hand after he treated her. Xie Hongyi then moved away from Jiang Zhi. The carriage was very wide, so there was plenty of empty space inside.
Jiang Zhi suddenly said: "I want to thank you."
Xie Hongyi secured himself leaning against the wall of the carriage, answering while closing his eyes. "For what?"
Jiang Zhi said in a low voice. "Because you helped me, and for my brother."
"Hmm." Xie Hongyi opened one eye. "If you want to thank me, stop being a jerk. I see your martial will is quite high, why don't you and serve your Kingdom? Maybe become a General like your brother?"
Thas right. By the time Xie Hongyi witnessed how Jiang Zhi fought, he had not expected that the Young Master had such a high level of martial arts. Usually if that happened, then he was already a pretty great General.
Jiang Zhi did not answer coldly. "More of your own business."
He had indeed deliberately hidden that he could actually martial arts. Jiang Zhi preferred people to think of him as a useless Young Master.
The reason he did this was because he was dissatisfied with his father. He felt his father was biased towards him. From childhood, Jiang Zhi often heard herself being compared to Jiang Qingyuan and it made her upset.
Xie Hongyi did not care about the cold tone Jiang Zhi spoke. He was really very tired and wanted to get some rest
Not long after, Xie Hongyi fell asleep.
Looking at the already slumbering Xie Hongyi, Jiang Zhi had no choice but to go to sleep. Jiang Zhi shifted her body so as not to get too close to Xie Hongyi then closed her eyes.
In the morning, the snow stopped falling. Xie Hongyi and Jiang Zhi decided to return home each without saying much.
Xie Hongyi was astonished at Jiang Zhi, where was the arrogant and lewd Young Master last time? Why is he now so quiet? Perhaps, the change was related to Jiang Baixi. Thinking about it, Xie Hongyi guessed Jiang Zhi was a sister-complex.
Xie Hongyi finally arrived at the Palace. The situation there seems lonely. Not as usual, Xie Hongyi thought.
Xie Hongyi immediately went to his residence. Once there, he saw a woman cleaning the snow. When the woman saw Xie Hongyi's figure, she exclaimed in shock and dropped the snow cleaning tool then quickly ran over to Xie Hongyi. She cried. "Mrs you're finally back!" Yi'er said loudly while hugging Xie Hongyi.
Xie Hongyi touched Yi'er's shoulder. "Yi'er calm down."
Yi'er broke away from Xie Hongyi. The girl was still as unwilling as she looked at Xie Hongyi.
Seeing that Yi'er had calmed down, Xie Hongyi asked a question that he wanted to know. "Why does the Palace seem deserted today?"
Xie Hongyi's eyes widened, he then shook Yi'er's body. "How is he doing now?"
Yi'er told Xie Hongyi everything. "Your Majesty is currently still in the Flower Palace. He hasn't been out for five days. Currently the affairs of the Palace are held by the Queen Mother."
After hearing Yi'er finish speaking, Xie Hongyi muttered. "I have to see Huang Long." With that, Xie Hongyi turned around and left Yi'er.
The abandoned Yi'er yelled out to call Xie Hongyi's name, but the woman did not rub him.
Xie Hongyi walked quickly towards the Flower Palace. He did not know why his heart was racing when he heard Huang Long was sick. He also felt anxious. There was a sense that had secretly infiltrated into his heart that he was unaware of.
Once he got there, Xie Hongyi immediately said to the eunuch guarding Huang Long's room door. Xie Hongyi spoke in a hurry. "Easim, I'm a healer. I want to check on the Emperor."
The eunuch let him in. "Then please come in." After which, Xie Hongyi stepped inside.
Xie Hongyi grimaced as he looked at Huang Long lying on the bed. He called Huang Long in a slightly anxious tone. "Your Majesty."
Huang Long who was lying down with a pale face slowly woke up. His eyes blinked comically as his gaze looked at Xie Hongyi. He was obviously shocked by Xie Hongyi being here. Xie Hongyi said: "Your Majesty I am back. Let me check on you." Then, Xie Hongyi sat down next to Huang Long then took his hand to examine the man's pulse.
Huang Long obediently let Xie Hongyi examine him. Now all the inhabitants of the palace knew that he was sick and weak, but did not know why. Huang Long asked the people who knew of his condition to shut up. He did not want this situation used by some parties to make a surge.
Xie Hongyi's forehead shriveled. Huang Long's situation was not good at all. His poison reacted faster than he expected. He then told the system in his mind. "System, can you tell me what the antidote to Huang Long's poison is?" If he were to investigate, it would take a long time. So he chose to ask for help on the system.
The system says: "Will the host exchange 300 points for the antidote?"
Xie Hongyi's face turned black. "You can't give me a discount?"
The system firmly answered. "No."
Xie Hongyi sighed. Then said with resignation. "Then exchange it."
There is a pause before the system answers. "You have exchanged 300 points to exchange for the antidote's clue."
A book with a sky blue cover appeared suddenly and fell on Xie Hongyi's lap. The woman quickly hid it from Huang Long.
Although his body was weak, Huang Long was not so insensitive that there was a sound of falling objects. He wanted to ask her, but was preceded by Xie Hongyi. "Your Majesty, your current situation is not so good. I suggest you lie down for a few days. This is a pill to temporarily suppress the poison in your body. Although it doesn't work as an antidote, but this pill can make your body not so weak." Xie Hongyi took out a pill inside his sleeve then tried to take it on Huang Long.
After Huang Long drank it, he felt his body slightly light. Realizing it was all because of Xie Hongyi, Huang Long said in a low tone. "You need to take care of Zhen."
Xie Hongyi was silent for a moment. Looking at Huang Long's gaze, he knew that he could not resist. "All right."
