“One hour?” Emperor Ying was shocked. He looked at Lou Qianxue and instantly said, “You’re really different from the people I know.”
“Huh?”
“You’re the first person who’s not fearful of my prestige and talks freely in front of me. He’s the second.” Emperor Ying’s gaze landed on Dan Taiyuan.
He paused for a while before continuing, “If it were someone else in your place right now, they wouldn’t be so sincere about saving Crown Prince. They would negotiate a few times, and only after getting sufficient benefits from me and Crown Prince, would they focus on treatment. It’s unlike you… ”
“…” Lou Qianxue smiled and said, “I practice alchemy to become strong, not to earn money by treating illnesses. Furthermore, I’m also doing this because of my relationship with the An family. Hence, I’m naturally different from others.”
“Relationship with the An family…” Emperor Ying revealed a faint smile at the corner of his mouth. “I know.”
His eyebrows relaxed as he got up and said, “The Crown Prince has a determined mind. A little pain is nothing to him. Miss Jade-Masked Blast, if it’s convenient for you, you can begin the treatment now.”
“I can, but, Your Majesty, when I’m treating him, I’ll need you to back away.”
Emperor Ying immediately nodded and walked out.
Just when he reached the door…
A series of hurried footsteps came closer and closer.
“His Majesty is really messing around. He looked for a young girl to treat the Royal Highness’s illness? If the Royal Highness recovers, what should we do?” An old voice rang out ahead of a rushing person.
At the next moment…
Bam!
A figure bumped into Emperor Ying. Emperor Ying did not move back at all, while the other man nearly staggered and fell to the ground.
“Who is so blind? Actually blocking the entrance… Your… Y-your M-majesty…” That man stopped scolding halfway when he suddenly saw Emperor Ying.
Boom!
He instantly knelt. “Y-your… Your Majesty… I failed to see you with my eyes and collided with you. Please punish me!”
Emperor Ying narrowed his eyes, and his majestic and dignified face revealed a sneer. “Master She, you came at the right time.”
“Your… Your Majesty… ”
“I wanted to look for you and ask you about that nerve-calming condiment and the spirit-gathering stone.”
When he heard this, Master She’s face turned pale. All traces of blood disappeared from his face.
“Your Majesty! I’m your loyal servant, who has whole-heartedly served you. Heaven and earth can attest to that. That young girl is framing me!”
“Oh? I have not said anything, yet you already know that you’re being framed? Then tell me, what can Miss Jade-Masked Blast fabricate against you? And what can she frame you for?”
Master She turned pale. He instantly collapsed to the ground.
Emperor Ying snorted. “Someone! Bring Master She down. Detain him in prison while he waits for his punishment.”
“Your Majesty, I have been wronged… wronged. Your Majesty… It wasn’t me. I didn’t do it. Your Majesty, Your Majesty…” Master She pitifully cried as he was dragged out of the palace…
“Your Majesty, Emperor Ying, does things at the speed of lightning! Your work efficiency is really high.”
After saying that, Lou Qianxue looked at the handsome but pale and thin Crown Prince, who was lying on the bed. “Now, it’s our turn! Your Royal Highness, remove your clothes.”
“Huh?” The Crown Prince was shocked. A faint blush appeared on his handsome face. “Miss Jade-Masked Blast, you…”
Dan Taiyuan’s face turned black.
Before Lou Qianxue could speak, he fiercely went forward, grabbed her hand, and headed out. “Go! Go back! I’ll show you!”
“… Dan Taiyuan…” Lou Qianxue did not know whether to laugh or cry. “I’m treating his illness. It’s useless to look at you.”
