Afterwards, Tang Youyou gritted her teeth and finally managed to reach the pool. But due to her lack of strength, she fell into the water.
In the water, she resembled a beauty with a damp body. Her charming face became hazy under the water mist.
Her whole body felt as if her bones were being constantly crushed and then pieced back together bit by bit. This pain made her break out in a cold sweat.
Rong Xun, who had seemingly disappeared before, was now standing beside Tang Youyou's pool. He quietly watched the person suffering in front of him.
He was worried but could do nothing for her.
He never thought that this girl had the ability to condense pills.
Such a talent was rare in the entire world.
However, it also meant that she would face more and more things. As she continued to explore, those things would surely come to light. He wondered if she could bear it.
But since the old man was guarding her, there should not be too many problems.
At this moment, Tang Youyou was already sweating profusely. Black stains were constantly oozing out of her body, seeping from her skin.
But her skin was becoming fair and tender at a visible speed.
This scene shocked Rong Xun greatly. This girl could endure it without any defense.
Rong Xun watched Tang Youyou in the pool. Seeing that she had relaxed her wrinkled eyebrows, he carefully carried her out of the pool.
He carefully wiped the water off Tang Youyou's body and then lay on the couch with the little person in his arms.
Rong Xun frowned and looked at the people outside. He said bluntly, "Ye Yue! Get in here now!"
These two sentences startled Ye Yue and Ye Bai, who were chatting at the door.
Ye Yue quickly pushed open the door and saw Rong Xun taking good care of Tang Youyou. Tang Youyou was now wearing a new white dress.
Seeing this, Ye Yue knew that he was doomed this time.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Consort is..."
He trembled as he uttered the first half of the sentence and then saw Rong Xun's frowning expression.
He was completely finished.
Rong Xun looked at him when he heard the voice. Ignoring his slightly trembling hands, he said with a strange smile, "It seems that your courage has grown bigger these days. Even the person I entrusted to you, you can't take good care of?"
Facing Rong Xun's questioning, Ye Yue couldn't explain his hardships. He said, "Your Majesty, your subordinate has been trying his best to protect the Queen Consort. But... but the incident happened suddenly, and there was no way to take good care of her completely."
At the same time, Ye Bai, who was originally outside the door, also walked in. Looking at Rong Xun whom she hadn't seen for a long time, her eyes instantly softened.
Ye Bai strode forward. When she got close to Rong Xun, she instantly knelt on one knee. "Your Majesty, this Queen locked herself in the room. If we still ask Ye Yue to protect her, it might violate the rule of gender separation."
After saying that, Ye Bai looked at Tang Youyou on the couch again. Her eyes were filled with jealousy. Jealousy and resentment burst out together, making her even more angry.
But in front of Rong Xun, she could only restrain herself. Seeing Rong Xun's warm hand gently holding Tang Youyou's little hand, she was burning with anger and gritted her teeth.
All her details were clearly seen by Rong Xun. He had known her thoughts since childhood.
He didn't drive her away because this person was still useful. After weighing the pros and cons, it was better to keep her. But now this girl had thoughts she shouldn't have under his nose, so he had to give her a warning!
Rong Xun carefully put down Tang Youyou's hand and looked into Ye Bai's eyes. He sneered, "It seems that you still haven't learned your lesson? I've repeatedly told you that the people around me are not to be touched by any of you!"
Rong Xun's words were calm, but they were full of warning. However, Ye Bai in front of him still refused to give up. Although she answered yes, she still had her own plans in mind.
Ye Bai said again, "Yes, your subordinate has spoken too much. Please punish me, Your Majesty!"
Ye Yue beside her couldn't stand Ye Bai's disobedience. He interrupted the topic and said, "Your Majesty, regarding the Queen Consort's wedding tomorrow, how should your subordinates arrange it?"
Hearing this, Rong Xun finally relaxed his eyebrows. He said, "I'll make my own plans for this matter. You just need to do your own jobs well. If I find out that you have other intentions again, don't blame me for not showing mercy."
This sentence was exactly aimed at Ye Bai in front of him. Ye Bai knew that she had said the wrong thing tonight, so she and Ye Yue asked for permission and then left.
In the room, only Rong Xun and Tang Youyou were left. Rong Xun looked at the sleeping Tang Youyou and gently stroked her forehead. Tang Youyou's originally burning forehead had now become warm, and her cherry - red face had also faded.
His little You'er seemed to have become even more beautiful.
Rong Xun took out a jade bottle from his sleeve. He took out only one pill and carefully fed it into Tang Youyou's red lips.
Then he tucked the quilt in for Tang Youyou and quietly left.
When he returned to the inn, it was already midnight.
In the room, Wen Ruxue was still drowsily waiting for Rong Xun's arrival. But what should have been a warm scene left Rong Xun feeling nothing.
Rong Xun looked at the person in front of him coldly. His words were like ice picks, waking up the half - asleep person.
"What are you doing here? Do you not have your own room to sleep in, or do you think I've wronged you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Ruxue trembled all over. She quickly shook her head and stared at him with her big, watery eyes aggrievedly. "Your Majesty, your concubine just felt sorry for you having to be busy so late, so she wanted to wait for you here."
Hearing her words, Rong Xun became even more impatient. He sneered, "It must be hard for you. Then I'll allow you to return to the Great Ming first. You don't need to worry about the following things anymore."
As soon as these words came out, Wen Ruxue was like facing a great enemy. She waved her hands nervously. The words of refusal were on the tip of her tongue, but in front of Rong Xun's sharp face, she became timid.
Rong Xun looked at Wen Ruxue who still didn't want to leave. He just sat on the imperial concubine chair and looked at the woman in front of him indifferently.
It seemed that he was waiting for her to leave.
Rong Xun slowly said, "If you still don't want to leave, don't blame me for having someone take you away!"
Hearing this, Wen Ruxue had to nod. She only left a sentence, "Your Majesty, the plum wine on the table was brewed by your concubine herself. It tastes good. If Your Majesty likes it, your concubine will make more."
Before leaving, Wen Ruxue didn't forget to bow respectfully. "Your Majesty, your concubine takes her leave."
Looking at the wine on the table, Rong Xun fell into deep thought for a moment.
