"Yes, but I'm not feeling hot. I don't need ice water to resist it, but hot water?" Ye Yi's white face looked troubled.
He has been using ice every day for decades. When he usually retreats, he always retreats in the ice cellar.
"No, this will only make your internal meridians weaker. Anyway, you won't be able to feel anything if you are unconscious during the attack. What does hot and cold water matter? The most important thing is to heal your body."
Ye Yibai lowered his head: "You make the decision, what I say doesn't count."
He positioned his position very accurately.
She is willing to go to such trouble for him because she cares about him, and he naturally appreciates it.
Anyway, he still has a backup plan, Xiao Huai is here.
Not long after, Cui'er came over again carrying a food box and a pot of tea.
Hua Yanxi fed him a few cups of tea, then sat aside and began to eat quietly.
Ye Yibai folded his hands and rested his head on his arms, lying on the tub and looking at her through the screen.
The more I look at it, the happier I feel.
It turns out that there is a saying that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
He likes Hua Yanxi. He likes everything she does. Even the process of chewing her food slowly is pleasing to him.
As he watched, Ye Yibai felt a little hoarse in his throat. When he looked down at the water, he felt guilty.
He actually reacted just by looking at her face and eating. Could it be that the medicinal bath had an aphrodisiac effect?
Ye Yibai looked at Hua Yanxi with complicated thoughts. Is this what she meant by "going through hardship"?
Hua Yanxi had no idea what was going on in someone's mind at this moment. She ate slowly because she was thinking about something in her mind. It seemed that something had been forgotten by her and she couldn't think of it for a while.
This matter is still related to Ye Yibai.
It was only after dinner that she remembered.
She remembered that what he wanted to tell her was the origin of his strange illness.
Thinking this way, his chewing movements accelerated significantly, and he ordered Cui'er to leave after eating.
When there were only two people left in the room, Hua Yanxi still opened the window uneasily and glanced around.
Ye Yibai watched her walking around the house strangely, as if he had discovered something. He couldn't help but be surprised. Could it be that Xiao Huai was exposed?
Hua Yanxi said, "You are good at martial arts. Let's see if there is anyone around here."
Ye Yibai closed his eyes, well, Xiao Huai was lying on the tree more than ten meters away. From the sound, he must be eating secretly. He could also hear the person talking to him, but there was no response.
It should be the wind separated and the moon combined.
After a while, Ye Yibai opened his eyes and said without any guilt: "There is no one."
Hua Yanxi felt relieved and sat down by the tub: "It's still a while before dark. What's going on with your body?"
When Ye Yibai heard this, he suddenly realized that he couldn't laugh or cry for a moment.
It turned out that she had been walking there for a long time because she was afraid of being overheard.
Her heart softened, she was always thinking about him.
He couldn't help but speak softly: "Okay, I'll tell you."
"The incident happened thirteen years ago. At that time, I was burned by a fire and was moved here by the old man to recuperate. At that time, the Nanzhao Kingdom, which had always been on good terms with the West Vietnam Kingdom, sent envoys to surrender, but the request was that they hoped to be great.
Chu Neng sent a proton to Nanzhao to live for a year." Ye Yibai recalled, his eyes showing coldness little by little.
Hua Yanxi was puzzled: "You mean, the emperor sent you to Nanzhao? But, he doesn't prefer you that much?"
If Nanzhao and Xiyue were on good terms and yet they made such a request to Da Chu, it must be out of good intentions. How could the emperor agree to it?
"The old man is not stupid. He knows that Nanzhao must have ulterior motives, but it is true that Nanzhao had entanglements with Xiyue at that time. How could he let go of such a good opportunity, just to send a proton, but Nanzhao
How could the imperial edict be interested in me, an unfavored prince? What they specifically want is the seventh prince, Ye Juechen."
"When Concubine Duan heard this, she became seriously ill, but no matter how much he begged, the old man still refused to take back his life. So, she decided to take advantage of me and use me to replace Ye Juechen. After all, we are so old
Similarly, I don't have the protection of my mother's family, so if I just find someone to pretend to be me, the old man won't notice."
"But, weren't you already stupid at that time, and your appearance was damaged?"
Ye Yibai smiled and said: "Yes, but for the sake of her son, Concubine Duan spent a lot of money to find a disguise master from among the people, and also sent someone to transfer me from the house to disguise me.
I was already stupid at that time, and all they needed to do was use medicine to make me speechless, and then they would not cheat on me."
"I know you're going to ask why she thought of switching and disguise, and why she chose me. That's because there is a kind of poisonous frog in Nanzhao. Just one bite can determine whether two people are related by blood.
, the appearance can be changed, but the bloodline cannot be changed."
Hua Yanxi was shocked, but also somewhat understood why Ye Yibai had such an attitude towards Ye Juechen.
Even if Emperor Ren thought about it, he would never have imagined that the child he loved most in his heart would have his identity changed and go to a foreign country where he could not see him.
There must be some conspiracy behind the Nanzhao people's actions. Being alone in a foreign land would probably make things even more difficult for him than in a deep palace.
Looking at Hua Yanxi's emotions, Ye Yibai knew that she felt sorry for him, so he simply said: "When we arrived in Nanzhao, those people wanted to use me to practice Gu and test the medicine on me, but I survived.
As soon as the year was up, he came back and has been in the mansion ever since."
Ye Yibai deliberately concealed what happened to Nanzhao, but Hua Yanxi was not easy to fool: "According to you, the matter is over, but you also said that the first batch of killers were people sent by Nanzhao. They
What do I want to do to you?"
Ye Yibai said helplessly: "They planted a poison on me. In the past, people who were infected by the poison could only live for a year. But when they saw that I was not dead, but still alive, they waited for an opportunity to capture me and go back to continue. In the capital, they
I have some scruples, so I won’t let it go if I rarely go out this time.”
"So, they already know your identity. You are not the seventh prince but the fifth prince?"
"Yes, I was exposed by them in less than a month. Although they were annoyed, the poison had already been planted by then, so I had to suppress it. It was considered beneficial. I was burned not long ago, and they were there again, so my face
My burns were also cured, and I gained such profound internal strength." Ye Yibai said with a smile.
"Stop laughing, you're looking really ugly when you smile." Hua Yanxi said suddenly.
She looked at Ye Yibai, her eyes dark.
Listening to his experience, she thought of herself, who was also trapped in the quagmire and faced with dangers, but she was already an adult at that time, and he was only five years old.
She had heard of the art of Gu, but it had been lost long ago.
But in Nanzhao, Gu magic was very popular.
The Gu King was obtained by killing thousands of poisonous Gu. The poison is so strong that even an adult man may not be able to bear it.
Concubine Duan was reluctant to let go of her own child, but she cruelly hurt other people's children.
She regretted that she should not have saved this vicious woman in the first place.
