King An looked at Xiao Shi blankly, the color of Junyi's face kept changing.
Granny Dong took out a row of silver needles from the medicine box and slowly inserted a few needles into Xiao Shi's body. Then she touched Xiao Shi's wrist, closed her eyes, and concentrated on feeling the changes in her pulse.
Chu Li stared at Granny Dong.
She inserted a few needles near Xiao Shi's heart veins. After a few needles were inserted, a trace of breath quickly escaped from the acupuncture points, like water gushing from a spring.
These auras condensed to form a strange force, which hindered the destruction of the demonic aura and eased Xiao Shi's injuries.
Chu Li was surprised that the breath that came out of thin air did not come from Grandma Dong, but from the acupuncture points pierced by the silver needles, which could block the evil spirit. The wonders of the human body were truly unfathomable, and he was far from having a glimpse of them all!
He has the wisdom of the Great Round Mirror and can clearly see the flow of breath inside and outside the body. Granny Dong has such ability just by looking at the pulse. Such medical skills are really amazing. If you have the opportunity, you must ask her for advice.
He has memorized this acupuncture point and will test it later. These few needles are extraordinary and can be said to be a life-saving technique.
"Well..." Xiao Shi slowly opened her eyes.
Chu Li hurriedly said: "Miss!"
When Xiao Shi saw it was him, she nodded slightly, looked around again, frowned, and said in a weak voice, "Has the assassin been caught?"
Chu Li shook his head: "The body method was too fast and escaped!"
"Escaped..." Xiao Shi coughed twice, and her pale face turned red.
Granny Dong said hurriedly: "Princess, please don't get angry!"
Chu Li said: "Miss, you have hurt your heart and your mood cannot change drastically. Don't worry, the prince will send someone to catch him!"
Xiao Shi glanced at King An.
King An also came back to his senses at this time and showed a gentle smile: "Don't worry, Princess, I will avenge you. No matter where the guy escapes, I will tie him to you!"
Xiao Shi nodded lightly and said calmly: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Princess, please rest in peace and recuperate!" King An said bitterly: "I will never let such a lawless thief go!"
Chu Li said: "Your Majesty, I don't trust the guards of the palace."
King An frowned and said: "They tried their best, but this person's movement is too fast!"
Chu Li said: "It's because of their best efforts that I don't worry. If they have some spare strength, I won't worry anymore. Just let them pay more attention next time... This time they are not because of slackness, but because of their own lack of cultivation."
.Due to poor Qinggong.”
"What do you think?" Wang An asked.
Chu Li said solemnly: "I will personally guard the lady's place to prevent the assassin from coming back to assassinate again after knowing that the murderer is not dead!"
"Isn't this inappropriate?" King An frowned: "How unbecoming a grown man is when you live in the backyard!"
Chu Li said: "The prince must have heard what Granny Dong said...Miss is now weak and vulnerable. If there is another trouble, who will be responsible if something happens to Miss!"
King An understood what he meant. Xiao Shi was too weak now. Even if the two of them had an affair, they would not be able to do such a scandal.
This made him feel relieved, but he still felt uncomfortable.
Chu Li clasped his fists and said solemnly: "I beg your Majesty to grant me your permission!"
Xiao Shi said: "Are you sure that guy will come again?"
Chu Li said coldly: "If he can kill the young lady calmly once, there will definitely be a second time! If there is a second time, the young lady may not be so lucky. If he knows the Qiyuan Pill, how can he not do anything about it?"
The Qi Yuan Dan is not omnipotent. If you kill someone, cut off the head and throw it somewhere else, no matter how powerful the Qi Yuan Dan is, it will not be able to regenerate a head.
"...Okay." Wang An thought for a long time, and finally nodded slowly: "Since you want to guard, then live in the next door yard. You can hear any movement!"
This assassin is too powerful. If he really succeeds and kills Xiao Shi, he won't be able to explain himself.
However, none of the masters in the government can prevent it. What's more, if something really goes wrong. And it's one of his own men, so he will definitely tell the truth.
Since Chu Li likes this hot potato, it's the best thing.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Chu Li clasped his fists.
King An waved his hand: "Princess, let me say hello to the outside first so that there won't be any trouble."
Xiao Shi nodded lightly.
After King An left, only Granny Dong and Yang Xueling were in the room. Chu Li said: "Grandma Dong, when can the young lady's injury be expected to recover?"
"It is caused by martial arts masters. There is still hidden energy in the body. It is already difficult to prevent it from getting worse. As for recovery..." Grandma Dong sighed, shook her head and said, "I'm afraid there will be no hope in a year and a half."
"This thief!" Chu Li said bitterly.
Xiao Shi glanced at him.
Chu Li turned his eyes and said to Granny Dong: "Then I will need to trouble Granny Dong from now on!"
As he spoke, he took out a ten thousand tael silver note from his pocket and put it in the medicine box.
Grandma Dong's rosy face changed slightly when she saw the denomination: "It's too valuable!"
Chu Li shook his head and said: "Compared with the life of the young lady, it is insignificant. I hope Granny Dong will not dislike it!"
"Alas..." Granny Dong sighed: "I should do my best, but there is really no way to deal with the princess's illness. We can only deal with it bit by bit."
Chu Li said: "There's no rush, just be safe."
Grandma Dong nodded and did not explain any more.
After a while, Granny Dong let go of Xiao Shi's wrist, stood up and opened a prescription, then said goodbye and left.
When there were only two people left in the room, Yang Xu and Xueling went out, Xiao Shi glanced at him: "Did you really find that guy?"
She thought it was the person Chu Li had brought for her, but she wondered if she had made a mistake. Why should she stab her heart instead of somewhere else?
Chu Li smiled: "What do you think, Miss?"
"You don't really want to kill me, do you?" Xiao Shi frowned and said, "It seems like he is really an enemy!"
Chu Li pointed at himself.
Xiao Shi was surprised: "It doesn't look like it!"
Chu Li said: "I learned the bone shrinking technique from Brother Jiang, and I can change my appearance."
"Do you hate me so much in your heart?" Xiao Shi snorted: "Hate me for dragging you here and not being able to accompany Third Sister?"
Chu Li glared at her angrily.
Xiao Shi said: "Anyway, looking at the way you kill me, you really want to kill me."
Chu Li shook his head and said: "If I can't deceive you, you have already exposed your secret just now!"
King An had an extraordinary look in his eyes. If Xiao Shi had known that it was him just now, his expression would have been different. There was no hatred in his eyes, and King An would have become suspicious.
Even though he had done a perfect job, it was troublesome to be doubted by King An.
Xiao Shi's reaction was normal, and Prince An wouldn't think too much about it, thus saving himself trouble.
"Looking at his face, it's so satisfying!" Xiao Shi hummed: "If you live next door, be alert. If there is any movement, come over quickly!"
When she heard that Chu Li lived next door, she felt at ease.
Chu Li smiled and nodded.
Xiao Shi said: "When will my injury heal?"
"It depends on the prince." Chu Li smiled.
Xiao Shi smiled sweetly, as bright as a pearl, and understood what Chu Li meant, when will King An die and when will she be well?
The next morning, the weather was sunny and the air was refreshing.
Song Sansi, the general manager of Prince An's palace, came to Yaoguang Courtyard.
When the maid in the courtyard saw it was him, she bowed and did not stop her.
He strode to the front of the hall, clasped his fists and said in a deep voice: "Princess!"
"Come in and talk." A husky and beautiful female voice came from inside.
Song Sansi opened the curtain and entered the hall. He lowered his head and took a few steps forward. He came to the woman sitting in the Taishi chair and saluted with clasped fists: "Princess!"
This woman is about thirty years old, with a snow-white oval face, a small cherry mouth, almond eyes and willow eyebrows. She is extremely beautiful. She is the concubine Song Liuying.
At this time, she was looking at Song Sansi lazily and said casually: "I heard that Princess Xiao was assassinated?"
"Yes." Song San thought: "A sword stabbed me in the heart. Thanks to the Xiao family's Qiyuan Pill, my life was saved, but my body failed... Congratulations, Princess!"
"Congratulations on what I am doing!" Song Liuying said casually.
Song Sansi smiled and said: "Even if you are a royal concubine and cannot achieve anything, your status will inevitably be unstable. The opportunity for the princess has come!" (To be continued.)
