"I can help you hide it, but you are not allowed to take any more risks." Murong Xuan rarely smiled like he usually did, and said seriously and solemnly.
Their masters are not fools. If Ning Yujin uses her own blood to nourish Huoshuang, and her body collapses, there is no way she will not be discovered.
"But it's come to this, there's no way I'm going to fall short!" Ning Yujin stood up excitedly, causing a stab of pain in her chest.
She quickly stretched out her hand to cover it, but her eyes were still looking at Murong Xuan, hoping that he would loosen up a little bit.
Murong Xuan frowned and thought for a moment, then turned around and waved to Xiangyue and the others: "You guys go out, I have something to say to you ladies alone."
"Miss..." Xiangyue and the others looked at Ning Yujin.
"Get out." Ning Yujin waved to them and said calmly.
"yes."
Xiangyue glanced at Ning Yujin with some worry before retreating.
Seeing that there were no outsiders in the room, Murong Xuan looked at Ning Yujin again and asked almost urgently: "Miss Third, is that Huoshuang prepared for me?"
Ning Yujin is a person who cherishes his life. It is impossible for him to risk his life for a precious herb. Unless that herb is related to someone's life.
There is only one person who can make her sacrifice like this.
"Fire frost is the most important medicinal primer for healing the cold flames. If the cultivation is successful, I can prepare an antidote."
Mo Jingxiao's body was now filled with water, and even a drop of it could break the balance he carefully maintained.
The matter of preparing the antidote was urgent, and she could not delay any longer.
"Is this the great use you mentioned before?" Murong Xuan recited "fire frost" and "cold flame" carefully, and nodded in understanding, "I see."
He didn't discover the connection between the two. It's true that a wise man will always make mistakes.
"Then there is no other way to cultivate Huoshuang?" Murong Xuan frowned and looked at Ning Yujin, feeling a little worried.
Ning Yujin's body is really in trouble if it continues like this. Even if her face can be well concealed with a human skin mask, her physical weakness can be easily felt by anyone who practices a little martial arts!
She was like this, but Huoshuang didn't bring it out, so she fell down first.
"Mr. Murong, if there is another way, do you think I would do it myself?" Ning Yujin smiled bitterly, raised her wrist, and glanced at the bandaged wound.
"There are only two ways before me now. One is to give up. Give up all the efforts I have made before and all the suffering I have suffered, and give up the chance to save Mo Jingxiao. The other is to persist. If I can make Huoshuang bloom, then
My life and his life will be saved. Mr. Murong, what should I choose?"
"this……"
Murong Xuan frowned, his fox eyes flickered, and countless thoughts seemed to be flowing through him.
After a while, he raised his head and said firmly: "If Third Miss insists, she must be watched over by Zizhan throughout the whole process. Firstly, Zizhan can find ways to help you hide it from me, and secondly, if Third Miss can't persist anymore,
Zizhan can also stop immediately."
Ning Yujin opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but looking at Murong Xuan's unquestionable expression, she could only take a long breath and said listlessly: "Okay."
"In that case, the third young lady, please have a good rest, and Zizhan will prepare you some medicine to nourish your qi and blood." Murong Xuan stood up and was about to leave, but was stopped by Ning Yujin.
"Mr. Murong, wait a moment!"
Murong Xuan turned to look at Ning Yujin and asked with some confusion: "Miss Third, is there anything else?"
"I want to ask... I want to ask..." Ning Yujin raised her chin and pointed in a certain direction outside the window, "How is that guy over there? Also, what do you mean?"
The thought of Mo Jingxiao actually giving that kind of order to the shadow guard felt like a stick in her throat and a thorn in her heart. She always felt a little uncomfortable.
Murong Xuan shook his head and said: "Not long after I came back, I went into the palace again. Zizhan only went there a little earlier than the third lady and didn't bump into me. So Zizhan didn't know what I thought.
but……"
"But what?" Ning Yujin asked hurriedly when she saw that Murong Xuan's expression was not very good.
"But Miss Qiao was injured so seriously, I must not be in a good mood."
"Why is it so badly injured?!" Ning Yujin's eyes widened and she almost jumped up, "I treated her after she was burned. It was obviously just a red burn, nothing serious at all.
, what do you mean when you say the injury is so serious?"
"Zizhan was puzzled for a while while he was treating her wounds. Ordinarily, if Miss San was so seriously injured, you shouldn't just sit back and do nothing. From this point of view, the burn on her arm should be her own.
It’s what you get out of it.”
Murong Xuan's eyes froze as he spoke. He never expected that they would actually bring a woman with ulterior motives into the house.
Ning Yujin came back from the shock, shook her head and sighed: "If a woman is not ruthless, her status is unstable. It's not easy for Qiao Hongqiu to be able to do something cruel to herself."
"Zizhan will ask people to pay more attention to that side. Third Miss, please don't worry." Murong Xuan comforted Ning Yujin.
"But," Ning Yujin raised her eyebrows and looked at Murong Xuan uneasily, "What exactly is your father thinking? He doesn't really think that I was the one who asked people to pour water on Qiao Hongqiu, right?"
"Third Miss, please don't get excited. You have to believe that I am not the kind of person who takes things out of context. I must also believe that Third Miss is not the kind of ruthless person."
Now that Mo Jingxiao is not here, the matter cannot be explained clearly, and Murong Xuan can only offer comfort.
"I hope so." Ning Yujin sighed and uttered these three words, her frown showing no sign of loosening.
The water was indeed poured by someone on her side, and the wound on Qiao Hongqiu's arm was seen by Mo Jingxiao with his own eyes, so there was no way to deny it.
And he gave that kind of order before he left...
Now she wished she could rush to him and ask him clearly, so as not to feel uncomfortable in her heart because of the unclear situation.
"When will your father come back?"
"I'm really not sure about this." Murong Xuan shook his head and said, "Recently, due to the issue of Zhendong Army's military power, the various parties in the court have been hard to guard against. The emperor is lying on his bed, the prince is in power, and the person who pushed him is...
It's Yin Tao, King of Jingyang, who has united all ministers to write a letter about this matter, but they haven't recommended a suitable candidate yet. I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort to decide who will win the title of Zhendong Army."
"in this way……"
No wonder it was so difficult for her to meet Mo Jingxiao.
"By the way," Murong Xuanxiang suddenly thought of something, looked at Ning Yujin, and said tentatively, "Miss Third has an old friend, and his recent development in the court can be said to be very prosperous."
"Old friend?" Ning Yujin frowned slightly and thought for a moment before saying, "Mr. Murong is talking about... Qi Yue?"
Murong Xuan nodded and said: "It is our Qi Zhuangyuan who was named the number one scholar on the gold medal list. Not only did Su Xiangduo give him a lot of support, but he also gained the appreciation of the prince so quickly. He started preparing to join the cabinet at a young age and rose to the top.
The speed is simply beyond my reach!”
"Qi Yue..."
Ning Yujin whispered his name, but didn't know what to think for a moment.
