Chapter 85 Treatment and Incurability
"No? I didn't even cry, why are you crying?" Qin Xuanyu was both amused and exasperated.
Jiang Qingyue shook her head, her voice muffled, "I'm sorry, I've dragged you down."
Qin Xuanyu sighed helplessly and couldn't help but reach out to rub Jiang Qingyue's head. However, he stopped abruptly and withdrew his hand.
"There's no such thing as a burden. At worst, you can repay me after we're out of danger." Qin Xuanyu didn't want her to be upset, so he said, "Or, if you want to... repay me with your body, I wouldn't mind considering it."
Jiang Qingyue opened her mouth, but her initial emotion vanished instantly.
"I'll go to the palace to see if there's any wound medicine to treat it for you, and then find you some clean clothes to change into."
After saying that, Jiang Qingyue got up to go look for him, but Qin Xuanyu stopped her.
Jiang Qingyue looked at him with a puzzled expression.
"No medicine, no change!" Qin Xuanyu's expression was extremely serious, seemingly even more so than when facing a tiger.
"Are you crazy? If you don't take the medicine, it will get worse and worse, and what if..." Jiang Qingyue didn't know what Qin Xuanyu was up to again.
However, Qin Xuanyu insisted, "No, once the medicine is applied and the clothes are changed, how will you explain it when the Emperor and the Crown Prince's men come looking for you?"
Jiang Qingyue was surprised that at this point, Qin Xuanyu disregarded his own safety and was still thinking about her, which touched her deeply.
"It's alright. This engagement will be dissolved sooner or later. At worst, we can just take the opportunity to dissolve it." Jiang Qingyue was very open-minded.
In her eyes, the most important thing right now is to heal Qin Xuanyu's injuries. Even if things go wrong, she might be jilted and her reputation might be damaged, but she doesn't care. She can always change her original plans. It's not like there's only one way to go.
Jiang Qingyue didn't care, but Qin Xuanyu did. "The engagement must be dissolved, but not in this way. Otherwise, your reputation will be completely ruined."
"Is reputation more important than life? You tell me not to hurt myself for revenge, but what about you? Aren't you hurting yourself to achieve your goal?" Jiang Qingyue said irritably, deciding to go all out.
Her most genuine reaction pleased Qin Xuanyu.
He chuckled softly, "Don't worry, the emperor's men aren't useless either, they'll find us soon."
"No!" Jiang Qingyue looked at the wound on Qin Xuanyu's back and knew that the injury could not be left untreated, otherwise it would be very troublesome to treat later.
"I'll help you deal with it first. At worst, we won't change your clothes." Jiang Qingyue backed down, but still insisted on finding and applying medicine for Qin Xuanyu.
"It's alright, it'll only be a moment, you won't die." Qin Xuanyu held Jiang Qingyue's hand, but Jiang Qingyue could feel that the temperature in his hand was abnormal, and his face had also become much paler.
Jiang Qingyue's expression also turned serious, and she forcefully shook off Qin Xuanyu's hand, "Qin Xuanyu, if you really don't care about your life, then consider me meddling in other people's business!"
Jiang Qingyue's voice was trembling with anxiety and a hint of tears as she spoke.
However, the only response Jiang Qingyue received was the sound of Qin Xuanyu falling to the ground with a thud.
"Qin Xuanyu!" Jiang Qingyue quickly stepped forward to check his pulse. Seeing that his condition was not good, she didn't bother to find medicine and took out silver needles to suppress Qin Xuanyu's injuries.
After a mere half-incense stick's time, Jiang Qingyue exhaled a breath of stale air, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and checked Qin Xuanyu's pulse again before finally letting out a sigh of relief.
She stared intently at Qin Xuanyu, who was unconscious and asleep.
Looking at his well-defined features and high nose bridge, Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but reach out her hand.
Just as her hand was about to touch Qin Xuanyu's nose, Jiang Qingyue suddenly realized what was happening and quickly withdrew her hand.
I must have taken the wrong medicine.
Jiang Qingyue took a few deep breaths, then went outside, fanning herself with her hand.
It must be because the acupuncture was too strenuous that it's so hot!
Jiang Qingyue told herself this.
Time has passed little by little, from bright sunshine to the present twilight.
Qin Xuanyu finally woke up.
The first thing he did upon waking was to check his clothes. They were all intact, and there were no bandages or strips of cloth wrapped around his body. He breathed a sigh of relief.
He tried to get up, but aggravated the wound on his back. Instantly, the bleeding, which had been somewhat controlled, started flowing again, and he collapsed to the ground.
Hearing the commotion at the door, Jiang Qingyue quickly went to check on her. "What are you doing? You're injured and you're still not behaving yourself."
Hearing Jiang Qingyue's playful scolding, Qin Xuanyu was not angry; instead, he couldn't help but laugh.
"You can still laugh?" The tiger's paw slapped his back, how could it affect his brain?
"It's nothing, I'm just... are you worried about me?" This time, Qin Xuanyu didn't refer to himself as "this king" anymore, but directly said "I".
"No way." Jiang Qingyue's voice rose as if her sore spot had been hit. "It's just that you were injured because of me, so logically I should take responsibility for it."
"Responsible?" Qin Xuanyu couldn't help but raise his tone, seizing on Jiang Qingyue's key words to ask a question with a teasing expression.
Jiang Qingyue blushed, "You... I didn't mean that, I..."
"Then what do you mean?" Qin Xuanyu pressed on relentlessly, catching Jiang Qingyue off guard, and she began to speak incoherently.
"I……"
"Quick, the door's open, let's go check it out!" Just then, a voice broke the silence between the two.
Jiang Qingyue and Qin Xuanyu couldn't help but exchange a glance. Then, Jiang Qingyue quickly lifted her dress and limped away.
As soon as she arrived at the entrance, she saw Qin Jinghao leading his men, preparing to search the palace.
The moment Qin Jinghao saw Jiang Qingyue, he rushed forward, asking, "Are you alright?"
He was afraid that the imperial advisor's words would come true, and that Jiang Qingyue could not be allowed to get into trouble at the moment.
He looked Jiang Qingyue up and down, noticing that her clothes were just a little messy and dirty, but she didn't have any wounds. He remembered that her walking posture was a little strange just now, and he was about to ask her when he saw another familiar figure come into view.
When he first heard the news, he was afraid that Jiang Qingyue's prediction had come true, so he quickly took stock of his men and prepared to give chase.
As a result, Jiang Chuchu came up and told me that the King of Qin had already caught up with them.
At that time, he had already begun to have doubts.
Didn't they say they had nothing to do with Jiang Qingyue? But now that Jiang Qingyue is in danger, the Imperial Uncle is the first to rush to her aid. How do you explain that?
Seeing Jiang Qingyue like this again, Qin Jinghao's eyes deepened.
He glanced at Jiang Qingyue's disheveled appearance again, especially at the slightly damp strands of her hair, and couldn't help but have some thoughts.
Inside the palace, a lone man and woman, and the imperial uncle was still unmarried…
Thinking of this, Qin Jinghao's expression turned even uglier.
