Empress, she is beautiful Lu Ziye

"That's natural."

Nan Zhen buried her head in his arms and arched her head. Her voice sounded a bit muffled, but most of the sad atmosphere had gone.

She looked up at him, blinking, "Can Your Majesty rest assured of me?"

Xiao Rongxi tightened her arms, her nose became sore, but her tone was well controlled, "Don't worry, so if I come to you often, are you afraid?"

Nan Zhen shook her head, "You have to remember what you said."

"it is good."

The two leaned together quietly, neither of them spoke anymore, and their thoughts were empty.Can't hear the wind and snow outside, only feel each other's body temperature.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Rongxi lowered his eyes to look at her, and his eyes fell on her reddish eye sockets. He raised his hand and gently covered her fingertips.

His palms were slightly cool, and he placed them on Nan Zhen's hot eyelids, gradually relieving the soreness and discomfort in his eyes.

Nan Zhen closed her eyes, let his fingers brush the bridge of the nose and the side of her face, and finally nodded her lips.

"Did you worry and fear all day during the day?" Xiao Rongxi asked in a low voice.

Nan Zhen didn't move her eyelids, she just responded, "Yes."

But for her, when she saw Xiao Rongxi's Gu poison attack for the first time, she was already mentally prepared.

Li Song's trip to southern Xinjiang was not smooth, and even two trips did not yield any results.

She knew that it was hard to find someone who knew this secret technique, and it was difficult to cure Gu poison, even if his medical skills were as high as Yi Hong's, there might not be a solution.

When waiting outside the room, every second is hard to digest; when hearing the sentence, my mind is empty, and even my steps are mechanical; but after stepping into the room, seeing Xiao Rongxi's face and hearing his voice, I feel calm down.

It is not easy to find people who appreciate and admire each other. Some people have never seen such luck even in their entire lives, so even if they can only walk a short distance together, it is enough.

The warm voice sounded in the ears again, and the hot air burst out, "Go to rest early, we have to stay in the Valley of Divine Doctors for a few more days."

It's too late to rush back to the capital now, and Yi Hong will come to perform acupuncture every day, trying to help him prolong the time, so he simply stays directly in the valley of genius doctors.

Nan Zhen grabbed his arm and put it on her body, "You hug me to sleep."

Xiao Rongxi laughed, and patted her on the shoulder, "I'll put you to sleep."

As soon as the flying snowflakes fell on the roof, they were quickly warmed, and did not accumulate until the charcoal fire gradually extinguished.

The yard lights were half off and half on.

Fei Liu hadn't slept yet, and Yu Huaishan had been treating him all day. Although his body was tired, his spirit was always excited, he tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

Estimated time, it should have passed the third watch.

He sighed silently, got out of bed, put on his outer clothes, opened the door, and walked out of the yard with heavy kicks and shallow kicks.

Walk out of the bamboo fence gate, turn right, and go around a gazebo, and you arrive at the house where Yi Hong lives. There are three rooms, only the one on the far right still has a faint candlelight flickering.

This is his study.

Yu Huaishan stepped up the stone steps, gently shook the snow off his body, and raised his hand to knock on the door.

Soon, footsteps came from inside.

Yi Hong opened the door, and seeing him, he didn't think it was strange, and let him in sideways, "Go and warm yourself by the fire first, you won't be afraid of freezing if you wear such thin clothes."

Yu Huaishan smiled, "I don't feel very cold."

With things in mind, there is no extra energy to spare, and it is normal not to feel cold.

Yi Hong poured him a glass of warm water, then sat down behind the desk, "Still thinking about His Majesty?"

Yu Huaishan didn't deny it, "I'm always thinking about it, I can't sleep."

Yi Hong was silent for a while, and then said after a while, "You have tried your best all these years."

When he checked his pulse today, he already found that Xiao Rongxi's body was severely eaten away by the poisonous poison. Yu Huaishan had made great efforts to maintain it for so many years.

"I know." Yu Huaishan took a sip of water and put it down again.

They don't believe in gods and Buddhas the most, but at this time, they can only pin their hopes on gods and Buddhas.

He couldn't help sighing again, and looked up, only to see Yi Hong staring at the picture scroll on the table.

Yu Huaishan glanced curiously, and after recognizing the person in the painting, he gradually straightened his back, and his head, which was not very sleepy, suddenly became more awake.

"Brother, this is..."

Yi Hong looked at his staring eyes in shock, and couldn't help smiling, "Did you recognize him?"

"Miss Lipin?"

Yi Hong pursed his lips lightly, "When I knew her, she wasn't Concubine Li."

At that time, she was dying, but the desire to survive bursting out of her small body attracted him.

He took her back to the Godly Doctor Valley for treatment, tried all kinds of prescriptions, and managed to snatch her back from the clutches of death. After nearly half a year of training, she returned to her former appearance.

The treatment process was very painful. In many cases, in order not to affect the follow-up use of force, Nan Zhen even volunteered not to use anesthetics and survived abruptly.

Miracle Doctor Gu has never allowed any foreign guest to stay for such a long time. It was so long that Yi Hong thought differently about her at some point. When he recovered, Nan Zhen bid farewell.

And this painting was completed on the day she left.

He didn't ask her if she wanted to stay, because he knew that she wouldn't be trapped here, and she should have a wider world.

But unexpectedly, when they met again, she would appear next to the emperor of Da Zhou, still a little concubine.

While Yi Hong was surprised, he also had some incomprehension.

She, a woman who pursues chicness and wantonness, would be willing to trap herself in many deep palaces?
Yu Huaishan already knew Nan Zhen's true identity, and had no doubts about Yi Hong's words.

He looked intently at the picture scroll on the table again, frowning slightly, and when he looked at the vivid eyebrows and eyes in the painting, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind.

It's no wonder that when he returned to the palace, the first time he saw Concubine Li, he felt familiar. It turned out that when he was in the Doctor's Valley, he went into Yihong's study to look for someone, and saw this painting by chance, so leave an impression.

"Then senior brother, you now..."

Yu Huaishan stopped talking halfway, thinking that he probably didn't want to mention this matter.

Unexpectedly, Yi Hong twitched the corners of his mouth and didn't avoid it, just said, "Old friend."

The conversation between the two of them late at night did not end until it was almost dawn. The two strings of footprints left in the yard were extremely clear. When Fei Liu got up, they were not covered by the thin snow.

Seeing that the door of His Majesty's room was still closed, he didn't bother him, and walked aside to practice his sword. It's just that the more he practiced the sword technique, the more chaotic it became, and he was obviously absent-minded.

Nan Zhen woke up in Xiao Rongxi's arms, saw that his eyes were still closed and his breathing was even, so she leaned forward and kissed him, then tiptoedly put on her shoes.

The poison caused Xiao Rongxi's senses to be slightly blunted. Nan Zhen opened the door and went out, but he hadn't woken up yet.

"Wow—"

Snow was suddenly impacted by the sword energy, and was raised in the air.

Nan Zhen glanced at it and said, "It's better not to practice sword dancing like you do."
