It seemed that he still needed to read more books. One day, he would be able to catch up with Qier's train of thought.
Mu Fengqie had no idea that after this incident, Jing Xunche not only didn't give up but became more determined. As a result, she later didn't know how to talk to Jing Xunche. Once he opened his mouth, he was like a master manipulator, and he was so skilled that one might easily fall into his trap.
"Your Highness, Your Highness's Consort," Hong Yi had already led his men and waited outside, anticipating Jing Xunche and the others.
"How is Tule Haojia?" Jing Xunche asked casually. After all, he didn't want Qier to care about other men.
"Your Highness, Tule Haojia has been unconscious. We don't know the reason," Hong Yi replied. The doctor who came yesterday had examined Tule Haojia and found nothing wrong. The wounds were healing, but he just wouldn't wake up.
Hearing this, Mu Fengqie pushed the door open and walked in. Jian Yi had just finished changing Tule Haojia's dressing when he saw Mu Fengqie enter.
Jian Yi was taken aback. He thought that it was already a great act of righteousness for Jing Xunche and Mu Fengqie to help him rescue his master. He didn't expect them to come. He had heard that Princess Tianlin was the leader of the Medicine Master Valley.
"Please save my master, Valley Master," Jian Yi pleaded, kneeling in front of Mu Fengqie. He was willing to sacrifice his life if it could save his master.
"Get up. Let me take a look at Tule Haojia first," Mu Fengqie said, ignoring Jian Yi and walking towards the patient.
Sure enough, as the doctors had said, there was nothing visibly wrong with Tule Haojia, and his wounds were healing well.
Mu Fengqie felt his pulse but found nothing amiss. What was going on? She took a silver needle and pricked Tule Haojia. Looking at the red blood that oozed out, Mu Fengqie fell into deep thought.
"Was he like this from the beginning?"
"When I went to rescue my master, he was still conscious. He only lost consciousness on the way," Jian Yi explained. They had thought that his master had fallen into a coma due to his severe injuries, but now that he still hadn't woken up, Jian Yi knew that something must have gone wrong.
He was conscious when he was rescued... Mu Fengqie looked at Tule Haojia, who was lying pale on the bed. This was a tricky case. She had never encountered such a situation before. One moment, the person was fine, and the next, they were in a coma.
If he had suffered a severe blow to the head, the only possibility was that he had become a vegetable. But she had just examined him, and there was nothing wrong with his head.
"Tule Haojia's condition is rather complicated. I need some time to study it," Mu Fengqie said. She would do her best to save him, but whether he would wake up would depend on fate.
Hearing this, Jian Yi felt devastated, but he didn't say anything. He knew that if Mu Fengqie said it was tricky, there were few people in the world who could save his master.
Jian Yi looked at Tule Haojia on the bed, clenching his fists so tightly that they made a cracking sound. It was all those from the grassland who had harmed his master. The King of the Grassland!
"Don't do anything rash now. If something happens to you, there will be no one to take care of your master," Mu Fengqie said, seeing the murderous look in Jian Yi's eyes. She knew that he wanted to avenge Tule Haojia.
Revenge could be taken, but not now. And he couldn't just charge in alone. He needed to use his wits.
Mu Fengqie's words brought Jian Yi back to reality. "Thank you, Princess, for the reminder."
His life was worthless, but his master's life was precious.
"Come here. I'll teach you a massage technique. You should massage Tule Haojia three times a day, morning, noon, and evening," Mu Fengqie said. Since she couldn't find anything wrong, she could only treat him as a vegetable for the time being. It couldn't do any harm.
Mu Fengqie stayed inside for half an hour. Jing Xunche waited patiently outside, but on the surface, it was just that. Those who were close could feel that the air pressure around him had dropped to an all - time low.
Hong Yi felt it deeply. It was really cold. Your Highness, was it really necessary? The Consort was just inside to treat Tule Haojia. She wasn't going to run away with him.
But Hong Yi didn't dare to say this out loud. He could only complain silently in his heart.
When Jing Xunche saw Mu Fengqie finally open the door, he picked her up and walked outside.
"Jing Xunche, what are you doing?" Mu Fengqie looked around, blushing and burying her head in Jing Xunche's arms. This man was going crazy. There were so many people around, and he just picked her up. It was so embarrassing.
"Qier must be tired after examining Tule Haojia for so long. I'll carry you to rest," Jing Xunche said. He was right. Mu Fengqie was indeed tired, but it was from teaching Jian Yi the massage technique. It wasn't a big deal. But seeing Jing Xunche being so serious, she didn't refuse and let him do as he pleased.
Seeing that Mu Fengqie didn't refuse, Jing Xunche was overjoyed. He wanted everyone to know that he and Qier were deeply in love and that no one could break them apart.
Sure enough, as Jing Xunche carried Mu Fengqie from outside the city to inside, everyone knew that Marquis Zhongning and Princess Tianlin were extremely affectionate. Even the King of the Grassland knew about it.
"Humph, childish tricks," the King of the Grassland sneered, not taking Jing Xunche's actions seriously at all.
"Is there any abnormality in the big tribe?" The King of the Grassland had been feeling uneasy these days but couldn't figure out why.
"No, everything is normal in the big tribe." If there were any problems, they would have received the news by now.
The King of the Grassland didn't know that Jing Xunche had already outsmarted them. He had intercepted all the letters from the grassland and was even having someone imitate the handwriting to write letters to the King of the Grassland.
The King of the Grassland nodded. As long as there was no problem in the big tribe, there was no need to worry. The big tribe was his foundation, so it must not be in trouble.
"I remember that the Empress of the Snow Feather Kingdom seems to have sent us a letter of surrender," the King of the Grassland said.
"Yes, they sent a lot of rare treasures," one of his subordinates replied. If they hadn't sent the letter of surrender so quickly, they would have attacked the Snow Feather Kingdom long ago.
"Send a message to their Empress, saying that I invite her to visit the Qin Dynasty," the King of the Grassland ordered. It was time to give them something to do. Otherwise, watching Jing Xunche and Mu Fengqie being so close made him feel uncomfortable.
The guard looked at the King of the Grassland, nodded, and then went to find someone to deliver the message.
The King of the Grassland looked at the cup in his hand, thinking that after the Empress of the Snow Feather Kingdom arrived, the Qin Dynasty would surely become much more lively.
Wasn't Jing Xunche showing off to him? He wanted to see how Jing Xunche would show off when there was a rift in his relationship with Mu Fengqie.
A mere young man in his twenties dared to fight against him? It was just a daydream.
And Jing Xunche and the others had no idea that danger was quietly approaching.
