Chapter 60: Acting, Life is not for the faint of heart.

 

Inside and outside the Su Huai Villa, almost surrounded by the imperial guards, even a fly cannot fly in, let alone outsiders to break in.

The bedroom is very quiet, so quiet that can almost hear the sound of breathing.

Duan Bai Yue had been sleeping, or simply put, he had been in a coma. Chu Yuan stood by the bedside, the back of his hand resting on his forehead from time to time, his body temperature still fluctuating, and when it was serious, even the breath he breathed out was frighteningly hot.

Eunuch Sixi poked his head in, wanting to say something.

Chu Yuan asked: “What is it?”

“Your Majesty, it’s time to eat.” Eunuch Sixi whispered. It is not a good idea to stay by the bedside without eating or drinking.

Chu Yuan asked, “Has Senior Nan come back?”

“Not yet I heard that he went to the bottom of the mountain with Duan Xiao Wangye  to meet the guests.” Eunuch Sixi replied.

Chu Yuan nodded, and looked at Duan Bai Yue: “Wait, now I have no appetite.”

Eunuch Sixi sighed in his heart, retreated and gently closed the door.

The house was quiet again and didn’t know what time it was outside. Duan Bai Yue finally opened his eyes and looked at the carvings on the top of the bed, and it took a long time for his mind to regain clarity.

Chu Yuan wiped off the thin sweat on his forehead, “You’re awake.”

Duan Bai Yue sat up and said, “How many days have I slept?”

“Thinking too much.” Chu Yuan placed the cushion for him, “Just a few hours.”

Duan Bai Yue was relieved, “That’s not too bad.”

Chu Yun said, “Before Senior Nan left the villa, he told you to take your medicine when you wake up.”

Duan Bai Yue’s stomach rumbled and said, “At least give me a meal first.”

Chu Yuan couldn’t help but be dumbfounded, he opened the door and ordered Sixi to deliver the meal. Once the food box was opened, it was either white porridge or green vegetables, and not even half of the oil star.

Duan Bai Yue sighed.

Chu Yuan took a spoon and fed him, saying, “Before you get well, it looks like you can only eat this.”

Duan Bai Yue asked, ” Do you feel heartache?”

Chu Yuan said, “Yes, I am.”

Duan Bai Yue swallowed a mouthful of congee and said, “It’s worth it.”

Chu Yuan didn’t pay attention to his nonsense, continued to watch him finish a bowl of porridge and rice, and called for hot water to rinse his mouth. After half an hour, the medicine was warmed up and sent to him, and after staring at him spoon by spoon, he did not forget to take a dumpling candy from the table.

Duan Bai Yue laughed: “I was worried earlier, but now that I’ve taken a look, maybe I’ll really learn how to wash rice in the future.” That’s quite a good way to run a household.

Chu Yuan said: “Do you know, just now I was thinking about something?”

Duan Bai Yue said, “Huh?”

However, Chu Yun did not say anything, just stroked the side of his face with one hand and kissed his lips. Between his lips and teeth, there was a hint of the bitterness of Chinese medicine and the sweetness of dumpling sugar.

“No matter if something happens to me or not, don’t let anything happen to you.” Duan Bai Yue encircled the person in his arms, “This way I can return to Xinan with peace of mind.”

Chu Yuan closed his eyes and did not respond to him for a long time.

In the middle of the night, Nan Mo Xie came back from the mountain and saw Sixi still waiting outside, saying that Xinan Wang woke up once, took the medicine, and has gone back to sleep, and the emperor is also in the house.

“His Majesty is also in the house.” Nan Mo Xie said, “It’s almost dawn, Eunuch go back to rest early.”

“There is a sentence, I don’t know if I can ask Great Warrior Nan?” Eunuch Sixi said.

Nan Mo Xie nodded, “Please speak.”

“Xinan Wang is fine this time, right?” Eunuch Sixi was worried.

“Naturally, nothing will happen.” Nan Mo Xie glanced into the room, “Tian Chen Sand has already made a headway, I think the poison of the gold silkworm thread can be solved in a while.”

“That’s good, that’s good.” Eunuch Sixi breathed a sigh of relief, walking back while whispering, “Since I followed His Majesty, I have not seen him worry about anyone like this.” Even if it has just ascended to the throne as stormy, day after day in the imperial study of sleepless labor political affairs, usually things are still thunderously decisive, the bottom of the eye has never been so emotional.”

Nan Moxie nodded perfunctorily, and watched him go back to the bedroom, but couldn’t help sighing deeply in his heart.

The next morning, Duan Bai Yue barely managed to sit up and asked, “Where is Master?”

“He came back last night.” Chu Yuan said, “Decocting medicine in the kitchen, but Yao-er hasn’t come back yet, saying that he has something to do down the mountain.” Duan Bai Yue nodded and said, “Go eat breakfast first.”

“What about you?” Chu Yuan asked.

Duan Bai Yue said, “I have to heal my wounds today, so I’m afraid I won’t be able to eat.”

“I will accompany you.” Chu Yuan straightened his lapel for him, “Wait until Senior Nan comes, I will go to the dining hall again.”

While the two were talking, it so happened that Nan Mo Xie also brought the boiled medicinal soup, a big black bowl, not to mention drinking it, just looking at it made his stomach hurt.

“Go.” Duan Bai Yue said, “By the way, eat my portion of breakfast as well.”

Chu Yuan nodded, stood up and respectfully said, “Thank you, senior.”

Duan Bai Yue escorted him all the way out the door.

Nan Mo Xie reminded, “Love Saint, it’s time to take your medicine.”

Duan Bai Yue withdrew his gaze.

“Finish drinking.” Nan Mo Xie hands him the large bowl.

“If you need to decoct medicine next time, you should leave it to Yao-er.” Duan Bai Yue looked at the various residues floating on top and sighed deeply.

How could he not clear it up?

“Take it quickly.” Nan Mo Xie urged, “Afterward, Master will treat your injuries.”

Duan Bai Yue closed his breath, will medicine juice a drink, just put down the bowl but feel abdominal pain like strangling, so all spit out, with a few mouthfuls of blood, looks a bit of a man.

Nan Mo Xie lifted his palm and slapped it behind his body, holding his wrist to test his pulse.

Duan Bai Yue was almost out of breath.

“Master will take you back to Xinan tomorrow.” Nan Mo Xie let go of his hand, “You won’t last much longer.”

Duan Bai Yue slowly came back after a long time and said, “Master could have been more straightforward in his words.”

“Say goodbye to him at noon.” Nan Mo Xie said, “Yao-er is at the bottom of the mountain and will come back with the fake Tian Chen Sand so as to put His Majesty’s mind at ease.”

Duan Bai Yue paused and nodded, “Good.”

“I know you can’t bear to part with it, but if you can’t bear to part with it, you have no choice but to do so.” Nan Mo Xie pulls over the old sheet and wipes the dirt on the ground clean, “After returning to Xinan, you will immediately go to the Ice Room with me to practice kung fu in seclusion, and temporarily recall Xiaowu from the Shadow Chasing Palace, so that he can go to Fei Mian Kingdom to find out what’s going on first.”

Duan Bai Yue nodded slightly and said, “Does Master have any ways to make me look less …… half dead?”

Nan Mo Xie’s headache: “What time is it, you still want to look strong and powerful?”

Duan Bai Yue said, “At least it will put him at ease.”

Nan Mo Xie examined his pale face for a moment and said, “Rubbing some rouge may be able to muddle through.”

Duan Bai Yue: “……”

“Alright, alright, I’ll think of a solution for you.” Nan Mo Xie said, “Don’t think about anything now, save your life in order to have a future.”

Duan Bai Yue said, “Good.”

As usual, Nan Mo Xie treated his wounds, Chu Yuan sat on the small stone bench in the courtyard after having breakfast and waited.

Duan Bai Yue’s forehead is faintly cold sweat, fists are clenched tight, the heart was compelled by the compulsion of the stinging pain like a tear, but not as bad as to be separated from his beloved.

Maybe it’s three years, maybe it’s a lifetime.

Nan Mo Xie withdrew his inner strength and helped him to lie back on the bed.

Duan Bai Yue’s face was devoid of blood, and even his lips were white.

Nan Mo Xie stared at him and said, “Unless you change your face, I’m afraid you won’t be handsome anymore.”

Duan Bai Yue insisted: “Master will surely be able to come up with a way.”

Nan Mo Xie sighed: “I will give you two needles, so that there is some blood on your face, bear the pain.”

Duan Bai Yue said: “Thank you.”

Nan Mo Xie took out a cloth bag and dipped the silver needle in the powder. He thought to himself, ‘How did I get such a stupid disciple?’

It is also a bitter fate.

“Your Majesty.” In the courtyard, Eunuch Sixi said, “The sun is shining here, Your Majesty go inside and wait.”

Chu Yuan snapped back to his senses, “Huh?”

“I’m afraid Xinan Wang is still a while away.” Eunuch Sixi said, “If you stay here under the sun, you will have a heat stroke.” By then, one of them will not be well, and another one will fall sick, then there will be a real headache.

Chu Yuan stood up and felt a little dizzy, Eunuch Sixi rushed forward to support him. Chu Yuan, however, refused to go into the house, stood in the shade of the doorway corridor, and continued to wait.

Eunuch Sixi did not dare to say anything more, and only accompanied him at the side.

It was another half hour before the door of the house was finally opened.

Nan Mo Xie’s head was covered in sweat, walking like stepping on cotton.

“How is it?” Chu Yuan asked.

“I forced out some of the poison.” Nan Mo Xie said, “I think that today’s Tian Chen Sand should have arrived, I will go down the mountain to check on Yao-er, I will be counting on Your Majesty here.”

Chu Yuan nodded, “Thank you senior.”

“Go in and take a look.” Nan Mo Xie said, “He is still awake now, but he should sleep again in a while.”

Chu Yuan hurriedly ran in.

Duan Bai Yue was coughing.

Chu Yuan poured a glass of water for him, sat on the edge of the bed and handed it over.

Duan Bai Yue leaned on the bed, “I told you to sleep for a while, but you didn’t listen.”

Chu Yuan asked, “Why did it take so long to heal this time?”

“The Golden Silkworm Thread is more powerful than the other time, so it naturally takes longer to heal the wound.” Duan Bai Yue said, “No need to worry.”

Chu Yuan wiped his sweat for him.

“There is one more thing.” Duan Bai Yue said, “Master said after healing the wound that he wants to return to Xinan as soon as possible.”

Chu Yuan paused for a moment and asked, “When?”

“The sooner the better.” Duan Bai Yue said, “When Yao-er comes back, if he can really get the Tian Chen Sand, we will immediately leave.”

Chu Yuan nodded, “Uh-huh.”

“When we’re about to separate, is there anything you want to say to me?” Duan Bai Yue asked.

Chu Yuan shook his head, “No.”

Duan Bai Yue said, “No.

Chu Yuan clasped his fingers together, “If you want to hear it, then wait until you have recovered from your injuries and then return to Wangcheng, I will slowly tell you.”

Duan Bai Yue said, “That’s fine, but it will take extra money.”

Chu Yuan said, “Okay.”

Although he wanted to talk to him for a few more words, but the corpse poison in his body does not cooperate, for fear of vomiting blood again in a while, Duan Bai Yue had to close his eyes and pretend to be asleep, and later turned into a real sleep, dreaming a chaotic state, and even the master came three times, but did not know.

As the sun was setting, Nan Mo Xie circled around the house, wondering where his little disciple had gone and why he hadn’t come back yet.

At the same time, Duan Yao was also very confused, pinching a small porcelain bottle in his hand, acting out what “ecstatic” should look like at the foot of the mountain several times, before gritting his teeth and rushing back to Su Huai Mountain Villa.

“Master! I’ve got it!”
