Chapter 11 Night Visit to the Boudoir
"Alright, you can leave now! Go and treat your wounds!" Murong Qian waved her hand, signaling Mingyi to leave first.
Turning to Sang Yu beside him, he said, "The information is incomplete, let's continue exploring! You should go too!"
Murong Qian hurriedly sent the two away because he had something to do; he wanted to meet the other party in person this time.
Just as Yun Juan lay down, she heard someone's presence approaching her courtyard.
"Are they ever going to stop? Can't they even let me get a good night's sleep?!" Yun Juan was so sleepy, and at this crucial moment, they all had to come and disturb her sweet dreams!
"And who are you? Are you trying to keep me from sleeping all night? Do you know that disturbing someone's sleep will land you in the deepest hell?!" Yun Juan pulled out another orange-flavored lollipop from her spatial storage.
At this moment, she desperately needed candy to calm her anger, otherwise she was afraid she would punch the other person to death.
A gentle breeze blew towards the tree where Murong Qian was, and Yun Juan's eyes were fixed on that tree.
Seeing that the other party had discovered him, he decided not to hide anymore and jumped down from the tree.
"What! Miss Yun wanted to negotiate a deal with me? Now you don't even know who I am. How can we negotiate a deal?" Murong Qian twisted the jade thumb ring on her hand.
Yun Juan then took a closer look at the person in front of her. He was dressed in black brocade robes with dragon patterns embroidered on the sleeves. Even with such simple attire, he exuded an extraordinary aura.
A pair of sharp eyes paired with a high nose bridge, and the words uttered from thin lips seem inherently ruthless.
His thin face was completely bloodless, and Yun Quan's first impression was that he was in poor health.
"So it was the Regent himself who came. I thought he would be a transcendent figure, but I didn't expect him to be such a sickly beauty!" Yun Juan sucked on the lollipop in her mouth, licked it, and casually expressed her opinion.
“I see that Miss Yun has nothing to offer! On the contrary, I have more than you! Miss Yun, you don’t have enough bargaining chips!” Murong Qian saw that the woman in front of him was not afraid of him at all. In this capital, who wouldn’t be afraid when they heard the name of the Regent?
Instead, Yun Juan exudes a sense of languor and nonchalance.
"Your body is about to give out from the poison! It doesn't seem right to keep going like this! Come on, sit down and rest for a bit, so you don't faint here and I won't be able to explain it to you!" Yun Juan stared at Murong Qian's legs, raised her eyebrows at him, and gestured with her chin that he could sit on the stone bench in the courtyard.
Murong Qian's blood boiled when she heard those words, and her hands clenched into fists. How could she know? Could she tell that she was poisoned just by looking at her?
Or does she have her own hidden influence and discover that she has been poisoned?
"No need to guess. There are many rumors about you in secret. Some say that you are closing your doors to guests because you were on the verge of death during that assassination attempt. Others say that you have a hidden illness from the battlefield. Some even say that you were ambushed and poisoned on your way back to the capital after winning the battle."
“I didn’t believe it at first, but after seeing you standing and alive, I used the process of elimination. Your face is pale, it’s very likely that you’ve been poisoned!” Yun Juan said casually, offering her analysis.
Murong Qian swiftly teleported to Yun Juan's side and grabbed her by the neck: "You're asking for death!"
His eyes had turned blood red, and he himself could feel this bloodlust emanating from his body.
Yun Juan was being choked, but she didn't seem very nervous. Instead, she looked at the moon in the sky.
"A full moon night, a bloodthirsty person, blood-red eyes, how interesting!" Since coming here, it seems that some of Yun Juan's memories have been unlocked.
"You don't seem afraid at all? With just a little force from my hands, I can snap your neck!" At this moment, Murong Qian truly had murderous intent.
“Death is an easy thing, but living is the hardest! Especially having to bear the pain of separation and death alone!” Yun Juan’s eyes were desolate and terrifyingly empty.
Even Murong Qian was shocked when she saw it. She was clearly a teenage girl, but she seemed to have experienced a lot.
“I can save you! You also need a queen in name only!” Yun Juan said bluntly.
She was right. Murong Qian did need a nominal queen, which would help him avoid a lot of trouble.
Yun Juan, however, was still inexperienced and found it difficult to move an inch here.
In the instant Murong Qian grabbed her neck, she remembered many things; it turned out she hadn't transmigrated.
Instead, he came back on his own.
They should return everything they took from her!
However, she has forgotten many people, and it seems that her memory has not fully recovered. She still needs to take it slowly, but she believes that one day she will be able to pull that person down from that high position.
Since Heaven is unjust, then let us break the cycle of Heaven!
A chilling hatred erupted in Yun Juan's eyes, even startling Murong Qian beside her. How could she suddenly seem to have changed?
What could possibly trigger such intense hatred in a young girl?
Murong Qian didn't know why, but she felt a strange attraction to the other person, drawing her closer to her and to getting to know her.
"I... I promise you!" Murong Qian blurted out unconsciously.
"Then Your Highness, can you let go now? It hurts so much to pinch me!" Yun Juan's eyes instantly filled with tears.
"Don't make that face, or I'll be tempted to gouge out your eyes and keep them for my own enjoyment!" Murong Qian covered Yun Juan's eyes with her hand.
For some reason, Murong Qian always felt a sense of familiarity with her eyes, as if she had seen them ten thousand years ago.
Upon seeing him again, my whole being, including my blood, was boiling and screaming.
"What a heartless person!"
Murong Qian's hand left Yun Juan's face, and he staggered and fell to the ground.
Oh no, the poison has taken effect...
Yun Juan could also see Murong Qian's disheveled state.
"One second he was threatening people with great arrogance, and look at him, he can't even stand up in just a short while! Humph, it really proves the old saying: 'If you don't court death, you won't die.'"
Yun Juan was speechless. She pricked her finger and placed it near Murong Qian's mouth.
"What are you going to do?" Murong Qian didn't know what the woman wanted to do, and looked at her warily.
From the moment you got involved with her, this woman exuded an air of strangeness.
"To save you, open your mouth." Yun Juan was too lazy to waste time with this sickly man. If she didn't save him, he would die here, which would be another problem. Besides, he had already conspired with her.
She pinched Murong Qian's chin and fed him her own blood.
"My blood can only temporarily suppress the poison, not cure it. I will conduct further examinations on you later! This is my sincerity, Your Highness!"
Yun Quan's words were both a reminder and a warning. The blood could only be suppressed temporarily, not eradicated. She was reminding him not to have the idea of imprisoning himself and draining his blood.
He also warned him that he had shown his sincerity and hoped that the other party would show his sincerity in return and not send anyone to assassinate him again.
