Chapter 7 Wake Up

On the morning of the third day after leaving the Valley of Broken Souls, in a small inn on the way to the capital, in the corner room, several followers stood in front of the bed, surprised and worried.

To my surprise, my master finally woke up after three days of coma. What I was worried about was that my master was very strange when he woke up. He didn't respond to greetings at all and just sat there in a daze.

"What should I do? Even if we work day and night, it will still take ten days to get to the capital. Why don't we go find a doctor first?"

"What kind of doctor can there be in such a small place?"

"What should we do?" Several followers were talking anxiously, running around in circles.

Jiang Yurong, who was standing on one side, bit her lip and looked at her cousin's appearance after he woke up. She really regretted it. What if the woman really did something to her cousin and only the woman herself knew the answer?

Jiang Yurong didn't dare to think about it anymore. She remembered that her father once said that when walking in the rivers and lakes, don't be careless and don't underestimate those humble people. The tricks they know are very powerful and can make people

The way they survive in the world is not something that anyone can decipher.

Why am I so irrational? Why can't I wait for my cousin to wake up and make sure that his body is really fine before dealing with that woman?

"Master, what's wrong with you?" Zhuo Yan knelt down, a dignified man of seven feet, with a cry in his tone.

The person sitting on the bed suddenly got off the ground, stood up and walked towards the window.

"Master, what do you want, just tell your subordinates." The kneeling and standing people hurried forward to help. This was not an environment that the master was familiar with, and they were afraid that he might bump into him.

Some people quickly picked up the master's cotton robe and came forward to avoid freezing in the cold weather.

However, just as their hands touched their master, he broke free. When they reached the window, they stopped and stretched out their trembling hands to open the window.

It was snowing outside, and a cold wind blew in the snowflakes.

The person pushing the window opened his outstretched palms to catch the snowflakes rolled in by the wind, and watched them fall and melt in his palms.

"Master?" Zhuo Yan, who was standing beside him, suddenly shouted in surprise.

Others also began to come to their senses, with the same shock and disbelief on their faces. Is it really possible?

The man wearing only a middle coat, regardless of whether it was cold or not, looked further out the window, seeing the eaves across the street and the smoke rising from the chimney in the distance.

He slowly turned around, looked around the room, and then looked at everyone one by one!

How could this happen? During the eight years since he was blind, his father had posted a list of famous doctors for him, and he himself also searched for doctors everywhere. He had seen countless famous doctors in the country, and he had seen all kinds of unpleasant medicinal soups.

I drank as much as I could and tried various treatments. Didn’t they all end in disappointment?

Just when he had given up hope and expectations and accepted that he would be blind forever, he could actually see?

"Master, your eyes are really healed. Woohoo, the sky has eyes." The followers were finally sure that their master's eyes were really healed, and they were all excited.

The one holding the cotton robe quickly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeves and stepped forward to put it on his master.

Someone quickly helped the master sit back on the bed, wiped his feet with his clothes, and put on his socks.

"Cousin, I am Yurong." Jiang Yurong finally came to his senses and stepped forward cautiously and in surprise.

His eyes stayed on her face for a moment, but he just nodded to her: "You guys go out first, I want to be alone for a while."

"Yes." Several followers immediately responded and walked out. Jiang Yurong didn't want to leave but didn't dare to stay. She turned around and looked at her expressionless cousin again, and hurried out.

The door was closed, and in the room, only the window that was not closed could hear the whistling wind.

The person who sat back on the bed stretched out his hands again, looked at his hands, looked around again, took a few deep breaths, and tried to calm down his emotions.

He is the fifth son of the current emperor and was granted the title of Prince Ji at the age of twelve. His surname is He, He Zexu.

When he met her, he lied that he had lost his memory, so she gave him a name and said that when she met him under the locust tree on the road, she would call him Lu Huai.

Thinking back one by one, the last scene in my mind was eating and drinking with Sanniang.

He was thinking about how to explain to her that he had not lost his memory before, nor was he trying to deceive her.

At that time, he never imagined that he would marry her as husband and wife three months later.

However, as soon as he opened his mouth, she said to eat first and talk about anything after eating.

The first glass of wine was fine, and the second glass was normal. After the third glass of wine, he started to feel sleepy, and then he didn't know anything anymore.

I don't know how long it has been since then, but he seemed to have just slept. This sleep was very comfortable and he had no dreams. When he woke up and opened his eyes, his eyes felt uncomfortable, as if they were being pierced by light.

He was lying down at that time, not knowing what was going on, but his eyes adapted and no longer felt uncomfortable. Only then did he realize that his eyes had recovered and he could see things.

Moreover, it is not blurry, but very clear, and even the threads of the spider web in the corner can be seen clearly.

After about a stick of incense, a call came from the door, and the few waiting people hurried in.

After the surprise, everyone felt only uneasy at this moment. Someone secretly glanced at Jiang Yurong and felt that she was even more uneasy.

Are you scared now? Why did you go so early?

Neatly dressed and washed, He Zexu sat on the chair in high spirits. Because his eyes had recovered, his gaze swept across the room, and everyone felt a sense of oppression that was very different from before.

"Where is she now?" He Zexu suppressed the urgency in his heart and asked slowly.

She and several of her followers looked at Jiang Yurong at the side, and quickly lowered their heads, with no intention of rushing to tell their master the answer.

He Zexu's eyes stopped on Jiang Yurong's face, looking at her pale face, and he could feel her fear more clearly at this moment.

"Say." The reactions of the entourage and the cousin made He Zexu's heart skip a beat, and a feeling of uneasiness welled up from the bottom of his heart.

"Cousin, she, she lost her footing and fell into the river when we were escaping together. We wanted to save her, but the beasts in the river surrounded us. We, we had no chance at all." Jiang Yurong's body trembled slightly, and so did her voice.

Trembling, he turned his eyes away after saying this, not daring to look at He Zexu at all.

Huh? Lying?

Several attendants originally thought that this cousin would rely on their status and tell the truth as she had done in the past.

The followers did not look at Miss Cousin, but were nervously paying attention to their master's reaction. Some even wondered whether they should stop the master if he got angry and wanted to attack Miss Cousin...
