Su Qing walked over and picked up the hot water bucket. It was difficult for them, but she easily carried it into the bed curtain.
The three servants pushed their jaws back and dared not say anything. They quickly left the yurt. At this moment, they wished they were blind and could not see anything.
Su Qing didn’t know what these people were thinking. She placed the hot water bucket on the ground and removed all the silver needles from the other parts of the woman’s body, leaving only the silver needles from her chest to her abdomen. Then, she carried the woman into the hot water.
The servant girl watched anxiously from the side. The water was so hot. Was she trying to cook, Madam? However, she did not dare to say it, fearing it would affect Su Qing’s treatment. She could only watch anxiously from the side.
“Miss Su, the medicine is here.”
Yeluchun hurried into the yurt with the medicine packet.
Su Qing asked the servant girl to bring the medicine packets and poured them into the hot water bucket. Soon, the yurt was filled with the smell of medicine.
After soaking for an hour, she added more water when the water cooled down, maintaining a scalding temperature.
An hour later, the woman’s face was flushed red from the hot water, and her pale lips were red. The water in the bucket turned black, and the smell of medicine could not hide the stench.
Yeluchun couldn’t enter the bed curtain. As time passed, the usually calm and reserved man paced around the room anxiously.
Su Qing ordered the servant girl to wipe off the medicine traces on the woman’s body. She pulled the silver needle from her lower abdomen and helped her lie on a soft couch.
She felt the woman’s pulse again. It was stronger than before, and her breathing was much more stable. It was both internal and external. Su Qing heaved a sigh of relief and asked Xiao Qi to make an antidote pill for her to eat.
“Third Prince.”
Someone outside the yurt called Yeluchun. So Yeluchun was the Third Prince? Su Qing raised her eyebrows slightly.
This person’s character could not be seen for the time being. He was kind, filial, humble, and polite. She did not know what would happen in the future.
Yeluchun looked at the bed curtain and saw no movement before he walked out of the yurt.
“Reporting to the Third Prince, the First Prince and the Second Prince fought because of a small soldier...”
The spy told Yeluchun the information he had gathered. “The First Prince asked the Second Prince for a soldier and said he was a spy from the Great Xia Kingdom. The Second Prince refused to hand him over no matter what. Later on, the First Prince said that the Second Prince was colluding with the Great Xia Kingdom to rebel!”
After listening to the report, Yeluchun subconsciously glanced into the yurt. Could it be? Miss Su was wearing the uniform of a soldier.
Could it be such a coincidence?
“What else?”
“The First Prince has secretly raised several impenetrable assassins who can still kill even if their heads are chopped off.”
After hearing the report, Yeluchun raised his eyebrows in disbelief. How was this possible? Would such a person exist?
“Did you catch that soldier?”
Yeluchun pondered for a moment and asked. He wanted to know if it was Su Qing.
“No, it was a mess. The Second Prince’s uncle led his troops to help and pincered the First Prince. A man shot two arrows simultaneously and saved the Second Prince, but he wasn’t from Tartan. He seemed to be from the Central Plains.”
The secret agent continued to report. Yeluchun looked back at the yurt again, his eyes flashing darkly.
It was too coincidental. Could the person Miss Su was looking for be Ji Shuisheng?
Was he also the one who saved the Second Prince?
Who were they? What was her purpose in coming to Tartan? Did she have a motive for getting close to him?
Yeluchun’s eyes darkened. He rubbed his thumb and index finger slowly and ordered the spy expressionlessly,
“Continue exploring.”
After sending the secret agent away, he returned to the yurt. He looked at the tightly shut bed curtain with his hands behind his back, and his heart was fiercely struggling.
If these two intended to stir up the Tartan Kingdom, then their goal of getting close to him was not pure. Would it be safe to hand Mother over to them?
Just as Yeluchun decided to call Su Qing out to stop her from treating Mother, Su Qing lifted the bed curtain and came out.
She looked exhausted. Her face was pale, and her expression was tired. Her eyes, which were always cold, were no longer aggressive.
“I’ll give you a prescription that requires her to take it for half a month, two meals a day before breakfast and after dinner. In addition, her diet needs to be light when recovering from a serious illness.”
Su Qing explained as she wrote the prescription. Her domineering calligraphy once again attracted Yeluchun’s attention.
Her handwriting was like her character. She must be a bold person to write such domineering calligraphy. He didn’t want to think of her as a schemer.
“Your mother will recover after taking these medicines, but it will still be difficult for her to stand up. She will need acupuncture for a month to recover, but I have to go back now and can only come back in five days.”
Su Qing handed the prescription to Yeluchun. Since he was the prince of Tartan, they would be enemies when the two countries fought. However, since she had promised to cure his mother, she had to fulfill her promise.
Moreover, she had not found the person behind the scenes, so she had to return.
“May 1 ask if you and Brother Ji are from the Great Xia Kingdom’s government?”
Yeluchun decided to get straight to the point. If it was detrimental to Tartan, he could not let Su Qing go.
Su Qing looked into his eyes. There was doubt in Yeluchun’s eyes. He was testing the waters. Su Qing replied coldly,
“No.”
“Are you the soldier that First Imperial Brother is looking for?”
Yeluchun also looked into Su Qing’s eyes. At this moment, his eyes were dark and unfathomable. It was impossible to see what he was trying to do.
“Yes.”
Su Qing raised her eyebrows slightly, and her eyes became colder. He asked aggressively, “Does the Third Prince want to use me to exchange for honor?” “Why did you do that?”
Yeluchun didn’t answer Su Qing’s question. He looked at Su Qing with his dark eyes and twirled the dark green thumb ring on his thumb.
He was terrifying with a sunken face. The temperature in the yurt suddenly dropped to freezing point.
“To protect myself.”
Su Qing frowned and replied impatiently. The way she looked at Yeluchun had already become cold.
“No other motives?”
Yeluchun asked.
“What’s the purpose?”
Su Qing asked with a sneer.
“Disrupting Tartan.”
Yeluchun looked into Su Qing’s eyes and voiced out the doubts in his heart.
“I have this plan.”
Su Qing’s eyes were cold and did not hide anything. The powerful and oppressive Yeluchun repeatedly questioned her, and her heart was hostile.
I want to mess up your country, right?
Crazy, extremely crazy!
She didn’t care that Yeluchun would kill her if he knew!
Yeluchun stared at Su Qing for a long time with his hands behind his back and his lips pursed tightly. The pressure on his body pressed down on her wave after wave, and his expression became increasingly gloomy.
Su Qing was still looking at him calmly, like a calm lake on the surface, but Yeluchun could feel the pressure from Su Qing.
This made Yeluchun even more curious about Su Qing. A woman had more guts than a man?
Yeluchun’s face darkened as he said coldly to Su Qing,
“Then 1 can’t let you go..”
