"Don't go with Sixth Brother." The Seventh Prince was gasping for breath, drops of sweat moistened his hair along the bridge of his nose, it was obvious that he was having a hard time, but his gaze wasn't the slightest bit lax, he stared firmly at Xue Yao, giving him a favorable exchange offer, "I'll pull out two more rabbit hutches for you."
Xue Yao put down the bushel fan, pulled his hand out of the Seventh Prince's hand, turned around and squeezed a kudzu towel from the copper basin, wiping the sweat off the Seventh Prince's face.
"Your Highness, don't worry about your injuries, I will wait for your Highness to recover before going with the grain ship. Collecting grain is a big matter, I may be able to help if I go. This trip out of the capital, I am following the Crown Prince, following the court, not following the Sixth Prince, as long as I assist the Crown Prince to finish the job, I will immediately come back to accompany His Highness."
The Seventh Prince closed his eyes in exasperation, panting messily and sweating profusely.
See little fat cub clothes quilt are wet with sweat, so consumed for fear of catching a cold.
Xue Yao went to the wooden box to get new bedding and dry clothes, and first helped the little chubby boy undo his underwear and wipe off the sweat on his body.
A beep suddenly came from his mind: [Progress of completing the task of opening the second chakra: four percent].
Xue Yao counted the time between them, estimating that the two veins would be completed within a day.
It's amazing how painful this process of getting through can be.
Looking at the little chubby cub's expression, it was obviously hard to bear.
Shouldn't we get the eunuch to help?
Xue Yao didn't have a clue in his heart.
At this critical time, others intervened and were afraid that it would interrupt the process of opening the two chakras, thinking that it was better to be on the safe side and take care of it alone.
Carefully skirting the wound in his lower abdomen as he wiped the sweat away.
Xue Yao took a closer look and felt that the color of the injury wasn't quite right, so he hurriedly carried an oil lamp to light it all up.
The tent brightened up, and walking back to the side of the collapse to take a look, Xue Yao frowned--
In the daytime, the lower abdomen of His Highness was greenish purple, but at the moment, it was blackened dark red, in the form of a hairline, and the blood vessels from the center to the surrounding area, also showed a hidden purple red.
Xue Yao was flustered and didn't dare to look for the Imperial Doctor, so he could only comfort himself that this was a sign of healing, otherwise the system wouldn't have reminded him that the Renwu and Dudu Chakras were in the process of being opened.
The Ren-Du two veins were not opened all at once, it was estimated that after a certain acupoint below the Dantian had been stimulated, the qi and blood all over the body went haywire and began to impinge on the qi veins.
Just a hard hit through the second chakra.
This process of getting through was ironically not pleasant, and the little fat cub had never shown such a painful expression since he was a child.
Not only is this little guy's emotional perception rather dull, he's also less sensitive to pain.
Short twelve years of life, the little fat cub are relying on food milk and silly remote perception of the world, at this moment to reveal such a look, I do not know how difficult it should be.
Xue Yao's heart ached so much that the corners of his eyes kept jumping, and his chest felt like it was clogged with a stone, and he couldn't catch his breath.
Feeding a child is such a dangerous job, and Time has become a thief, pouring all his affection and compassion, unknowingly, into this little chubby cub's body.
"Your Highness, does it hurt here in the stomach?" Xue Yao asked softly.
"Hot ......" The seventh prince's expression grew more and more irritated, and with a sideways gasp he pointed to the tent door curtain, "Lift off! Give master lift off!"
Xue Yao hurriedly held his hand and gently advised, "It's too windy outside, Your Highness is covered in sweat, blowing openly will make you catch a cold, I'll fan Your Highness, okay?"
"Not enough ...... so hot ......"
"Your Highness bear with me, and sleep until morning and it won't be unpleasant."
The Seventh Prince obviously couldn't take it anymore, laboriously supporting his body slightly and tearfully grabbing Xue Yao's wrist, "Lift it off for Master!"
Xue Yao's eyes reddened as he instantly broke down at such a pitiful look from the little guy.
As soon as the Seventh Prince saw that Xue Yao was about to cry, he laid back down again in despair, muttering under his breath, "He's so hot, so ...... good ...... good."
Xue Yao hurriedly bent over to his ear, "What does Your Highness want to do?"
"I want to drink chilled snow pear silver ear soup ...... so badly," the seventh prince painfully uttered his wish.
Xue Yao broke into a cry and laughed, "This isn't in the palace, where am I going to find chilled soup for His Highness?"
"You smiled." The Seventh Prince whispered with his eyes closed.
Xue Yao froze, only then realizing that her tears were held back by the little one's amusing remark, "Your Highness is deliberately teasing me, isn't she?"
The Seventh Prince didn't say anything, as if he was asleep, probably because he was afraid that his little companion would cry in fear at the drop of a hat, and could only distract himself and divert the pain.
However, what Xue Yao knew all too well, the little chubby cub who became understanding, made it even harder for him.
Afraid that tears would fall out again as soon as he opened his mouth, Xue Yao also fell silent, squeezing the Ge Towel dry over and over again, wiping the sweat and fanning the little chubby cub over and over again.
With great difficulty, he stabilized his emotions and inquired in a trembling voice, "Does Your Highness' injury hurt?"
The Seventh Prince still had his eyes closed, his lips pale, and he gently shook his head once.
Xue Yao was uneasy: "Don't hold on to it, it really doesn't hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt if you don't touch it."
"And where is Your Highness uncomfortable now?"
"Hot."
"And?"
"Acid, into the head."
Xue Yao couldn't understand the description and asked again, "Where is it sore? I'll help Your Highness rub it."
"Sore all over." The Seventh Prince grabbed Xue Yao's hand and rested it on the bruised area of his lower abdomen, gasping, "It's hot here, flush it towards the top of your head."
Xue Yao shivered in fear as soon as his palm touched the injury.
How did it get so hot!
Touching other places again, the temperature from the wound to the chest was hot, in comparison, His Highness's hand was cool, as if the blood in his body was gathering up, passing through the dantian points and then all rushing to the top of his head, circulating around and around.
So it seemed that the injury was indeed not a big problem, and this difficulty was all due to the qi and blood reaction during the process of opening the meridians.
The Seventh Prince closed his eyes again and gasped for a while, he really couldn't hold his breath and took the initiative to open his mouth, "Pass the Imperial Doctor."
Little fat cub since childhood is afraid of drinking medicine, afraid of the bitter taste, any time is to avoid the eunuch, this time actually take the initiative to want the eunuch.
I'm afraid it's really hard to get out of it.
If this was an ordinary illness, Xue Yao would have dashed off to carry the eunuch to see it, but he had just heard the hint that he could not be disturbed.
I'm afraid that I'm afraid of meeting any accidents and letting the little fat kid take this kick for nothing.
"The Imperial Doctor said that His Highness' injuries are not in any serious condition." Xue Yao was afraid that the Imperial Doctor's acupuncture, cupping, and feeding methods would suppress His Highness' blood boiling circulation, so he could only ruthlessly persuade, "Your Highness will be fine if you endure until dawn, so sleep for a while first."
The Seventh Prince didn't say anything and obediently closed his eyes, trying to fall asleep.
This was really a hundred percent trust in his own companion, and if anyone else had seen Xue Yao's reaction, they would have thought that he was trying to murder the little prince.
This is hot as a burning iron, and still let the child take a nap ......
However, Chubby Pup is a different kind of kid, weak, fat, and sleepy.
With such a clenching of teeth and closing of eyes, it wasn't long before the Seventh Prince really did fall asleep.
Or maybe it's just hard to endure and pass out from exhaustion.
Xue Yao was scared all night, carrying a copper basin to the stream and changing the cool water dozens of times, wiping sweat and fanning himself all night without stopping for a moment.
Turning dawn.
Xue Yao skillfully picked up the copper basin and got up, ready to go change the water.
Just stood up in front of the eyes of the sky suddenly turned, feet stumbled, "bam" sound, even with a person with the basin fell to the ground.
The scene in front of his eyes stopped rotating for a while, Xue Yao did not pick up the basin for fear of waking up the little prince, turned his head to see that the seventh prince was still huffing and puffing in his sleep, which made him sigh with relief.
When I braced myself to stand up, I realized that my back was sore and my legs were numb.
This Renwu Erqin mission could really kill him halfway, actually only rewarding a few hundred whitewash points.
When the meridians were opened, the little fat cub was going to turn into a butterfly and become a martial arts prodigy, while he was tired of breaking his back.
Xue Yao aggrievedly picked up the copper basin and fought his way out to fetch water.
When he returned to the tent, he actually found that the Imperial Doctor was already checking his pulse by the side of the cave.
Hearing Xue Yao's footsteps, the old eunuch panicked and turned his head to look, immediately blowing his beard and glaring: ''Were you the one who served His Highness last night? How did you become like this in one night! Why didn't you summon me over in time to diagnose when His Highness experienced an abnormality?!"
"My lord." Xue Yao put down the copper basin and respectfully explained, "I've asked, Your Highness's injuries are no longer painful, it may be that the blood qi has been revitalized by your lordship's acupuncture, which is ......"
"Nonsense! Acupuncture and moxibustion to revitalize the blood, how can there be such a miraculous effect!" The old Imperial Doctor looked at Xue Yao incredulously, "Simply unbelievable, the young prince is sick like this, and you didn't report it to anyone without a word! Is this something you can handle or is this something I can handle? The accompanying doctors will all lose their heads along with you!"
Xue Yao couldn't argue, this matter was not easy to explain, and it wasn't unreasonable for the old Imperial Doctor to be angry, he could only keep his head down and listen to the lecture.
The old eunuch came outside the tent early in the morning to request a pulse check, stood bowed for half a day, and no one answered.
Worried that the imperial son had any accidents, slightly lifted the door curtain to take a look, actually even a serving palace maid could not be seen.
The prince was still asleep, so the eunuch had to ignore protocol and walk right in to check his pulse.
It was a touch that literally made my eyes go black!
Yesterday also everything is normal little prince, at this moment the pulse is all messed up, forehead no signs of fever, but the body is unusually high temperature sweating.
Having practiced medicine for decades, he had never seen this before, and if the prince's injuries suddenly worsened, he would be dead!
At this moment, seeing that this ill-informed teenager even did not take it seriously, the Imperial Doctor was furious and stormy, pointing at Xue Yao a rebuke, but woke up the sleeping little prince behind him.
As soon as the Seventh Prince opened his eyes in a daze, he saw the white-haired old man pointing at Silly Yao Yao and sputtering.
Before he could hear what was said, the Seventh Prince spoke in a low, hoarse voice: "Unbridled."
The old eunuch panicked and stopped his chattering, turning around to greet the emperor, explaining that because this companion was uninformed and didn't report the matter leading to his own delayed diagnosis, he deserved to die for his sins.
The Seventh Prince frowned as he braced himself, Xue Yao and the Imperial Doctor rushed forward to help.
After sitting up, the seventh prince himself picked up the collapsed side bushel fan, stirring up the wind for himself, and cleared his throat, "This trip out of the palace, bring ice or not? Master hot panic."
As soon as Xue Yao saw the little fat cub's complexion, his heart finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he was indeed in much better spirits than last night.
The system prompted that the completion degree of opening the second chakra had reached seventy-six percent.
It seems to be that the higher the level of completion, the milder the pain.
But the old eunuch is not sure of the situation, and feels that this pulse of the little prince this body temperature, how to look at it does not look like nothing.
Fear of alarming the emperor, can only call the accompanying two court judges, come together to diagnose the pulse.
After the three Imperial Physicians checked the pulse, they were all scared and bloodless.
This was truly a pulse that had never been seen before, as if the legend had gone off the rails and the meridians had reversed.
Yet the eunuchs took one look at the little prince and there did seem to be no signs of pain.
The eunuchs looked at each other and decided to inform the Crown Prince of the little prince's abnormality first.
Thus, throughout the morning, the imperial princes and the eunuchs gathered together to watch the seventh prince eat the mountain fruit and eat the sugar cake, and after eating the sugar cake eat the barking rabbit baked by Silly Yao Yao.
The Imperial Doctor told His Royal Highness to take care of his body, recuperate from his injuries, and make sure to eat a light diet with lots of vegetables.
But the Seventh Prince wouldn't listen, and the meat was still there.
Give up the death penalty, go fuck yourself with the vegetables, it's still Yao Yao's roasted rabbit that's the best.
Seeing the seventh prince so able to eat, the crown prince felt that his brother is still a normal brother, the diagnosis of the eunuchs are puzzled, so he reported the situation to his father.
When the emperor learned of this, he personally came to observe his own fat son for an afternoon and was puzzled.
The little prince's face and food intake were no different from the previous days, it was the pulse and body temperature that were not normal.
Who have no bottom in mind, worried that this is a precursor to serious illness, in order to heal well, simply end the fall hunt early, pull out the camp back to the palace.
*
On his way back to the palace, Xue Yao heard the prompt of [Open the Renju Second Chakra Branch Quest Completion].
After several days and nights of worrying, I finally let go of my heart at this moment.
In the carriage, while the little fat cub was resting, Xue Yao couldn't wait to enter the mental space and turn the Food Mall Level 2 on.
The number of refreshes became three hundred, and the chances of changing to the seventh prince's favorite Wanton were higher.
Looking at the whitewash point balance, together with the whitewash points rewarded by the Rendezvous Quest, there were still more than four thousand in total.
Over the years, the whitewashing points have been spent on that pile of technical books, in addition to snacks for myself and the chubby cub.
Knowledge was the most important thing, the books Xue Yao had bought had almost filled up the gap mall, and there was no room for snacks.
These are modern books, with covers and text different from ancient books, so it's hard to tell if they're found, but they'll just take up space.
Xue Yao was in dire need of expanding his space, or else he would have to eat everything on the spot if he exchanged points for food.
However, the second level of the Gap Mall's opening condition was the same as the second level of the Medicine Mall, a side quest called [Controlling the Epidemic in Ping Rong County].
The map in the palace, Ping Rong County, this place, located in the latter part of the territory of Shanxi Province, so many years never heard of any plague, really puzzling.
However, Xue Yao had also silently made some preparations and bought quite a few medical books.
I also refreshed a book in the bookstore a couple years ago called The Beginning of the Plague Massacre in the Sixth Century C.E. I bought it but haven't read it yet.
*
After returning to the palace, Consort Tong learned of the trouble her son had caused and was so angry that she almost tore the Third Prince alive.
Mindful of the fact that the stick injury on his buttocks had not healed, Consort Tong could only go and ask the Emperor for forgiveness herself.
The matter of the Seventh Prince's injury was intended to be hidden from Consort Shi.
But in the end, the real mom is a real mom, and she can actually see at a glance that her own fat son has lost a circle of weight, and his face is not quite normal.
Several royal brothers explained that it was caused by hunting and running around, but Princess Shio did not believe it, and pressed again and again, or asked the truth.
Princess Shio looked at the child's injuries and was so distressed that she washed her face in tears and gambled that she would not see the emperor.
The emperor is not angry, but guilty and anxious, more and more favor Shi Fei.
The little eunuchs of the Green Vault Palace all felt that Empress Shi Fei had the means to know how to tickle a man's heart with desire.
Xue Yao formally took his leave from Princess Shi Shi.
The news that he was going to accompany the Crown Prince out of the palace spread, and the Seventh Prince was so angry that he didn't even eat.
The little eunuchs all felt that Xue Yao was deliberately learning from Consort Shi's tactics, relying on His Highness's favoritism to deliberately whet the young prince's appetite.
This made a group of attendants happy, thinking that this Xue Yao considered himself to be the same as Princess Shi.
The young prince was just relying on him like an elder brother, how could this kind of feeling stand up to being eroded?
If another person served, the young prince would soon forget about this little companion.
A group of people are rubbing their fists waiting for Xue Yao to give up his position, one more than one attentive to the development of flavored milk, coaxing the little prince to be happy, but the little prince just does not recognize the account.
Seeing that the child had not yet recovered from his injuries and was still refusing to eat, Consort Shio personally reasoned with the Seventh Prince: "The Crown Prince has done us a favor, and we can't help him with his affairs, but it's good that Xue Yao is a child with a good mind, so letting him travel with the Crown Prince is a way of repaying the Crown Prince on behalf of our mother and son. This is a big deal. Do you understand? Don't be childish, be mature."
"Is there any proven way to make Yao Yao stay?" The Seventh Prince sincerely sought advice like his mother consort.
Princess Shio didn't say a word as an eyeroll flew at her unproductive son.
The Seventh Prince suddenly thought of a mature idea and seriously proposed to his mother consort, "On the day of the trip, my son will go and steal Yao Yao's salute."
Consort Shio was so angry that she couldn't be a mature mother anymore, "You dare to fool around, believe it or not I'll pull your ears off?"
Roads are different, the seventh prince ignored his mother consort, lying on the bed, both eyes staring straight at the ceiling, waiting for his mother consort to leave and then ordering the palace maid: "Bring Yao Yao over here, my son wants to see him before he dies."
Xue Yao was caught off guard and was scared to her knees by the three words "before death" relayed by the palace maid, and went to see the Seventh Prince in a rage.
It's important to educate this little repeater that he can't learn his tongue!
However, after walking into the bedchamber and seeing the forlorn little fat face of the little fat cub staring at the ceiling, Xue Yao's heart still softened.
Gingerly, he walked over and tucked in his highness.
The Seventh Prince looked at the ceiling, "Yao Yao doesn't want His Highness tomorrow."
Xue Yao sighed, "Didn't tell your highness, three or two months back, is accompanying the crown prince to collect grain and put away grain, will not not want your highness."
The Seventh Prince was still looking at the ceiling, "Is Your Highness still having a hard time?"
Xue Yao froze, "Where is it hard? Does Your Highness' wound still hurt?"
The Seventh Prince finally turned his head sideways, Xue Yao's worried little face imprinted in the light teal colored pupils of his eyes, "It still hurts."
Xue Yao nervously gently lifted the quilt, wanting to check the injury, "Did Your Highness not allow the palace maid to change the poultice in time?"
"Yao Yao." The Seventh Prince stared at him, expressionlessly repeating Xue Yao's promise in the tent, "Your Highness can rest assured and recuperate, I will definitely wait for Your Highness to heal before leaving with the grain ship."
His Highness is not yet healed, so Yao Yao can't go.
Xue Yao then realized that this little guy was pretending to be sick and playing tricks.
"Your Highness is clearly all better! I asked the Imperial Doctor yesterday, and his pulse is normalized, and his body is even better than before."
With a beak, the Seventh Prince rolled over and turned his back to Xue Yao.
His Highness is thunderstruck!
Xue Yao could do nothing about it, the reasoning that should have been spoken, these days both soft and hard, had already broken his lips.
But the chubby little cub just couldn't get over the fact that he was suddenly gone for so long.
Both the Emperor and the Crown Prince again forbade the Seventh Prince to follow.
His Highness is at the end of his rope and is counting on the conscience of Silly Telekinesis.
However ......
Xue Yao helped the little chubby cub cover the quilt and got up to take his leave, "Your Highness take a good rest for a period of time, Xue Yao will definitely finish his official duties as soon as possible, and if he finishes them one day earlier, he will immediately follow the official ship back to the capital ahead of schedule."
The seventh prince with his back turned didn't reply or move.
"Your Highness, may I take my leave?"
The Seventh Prince still didn't respond.
Xue Yao had to take two steps back and prepare to go out.
However, as soon as he turned around, he heard a system prompt in his head: [Warning, Lu Qian's sense of security is reduced by 1. If the value of the sense of security falls below the regular value of 60, the blackening coefficient will be proportionally increased.]
"???" Xue Yao turned around in wonder and realized that the Seventh Prince was still tattooing his back, he shouldn't have known that he had turned around and walked away, right?
However, the moment he turned to gaze at the little chubby cub, the system started prompting again: [Congratulations, Lu Qian's sense of security has recovered 100.]
Xue Yao: "????"
Worried that startling the little fat cub would lower his security value, Xue Yao tiptoed around this time-
[Warning, land dive security reduced by 1.]
Xue Yao looked back in surprise as his security value returned to one hundred.
"......"
Does this little fat kid have eyes in his back!
With his back turned, how could he know his every move?
Could this be Your Highness's perception after opening the second chakra?
Xue Yao thought about it, the sense of security will be fine as long as it doesn't fall below sixty, and it will be restored when he comes back, but the matter of changing the law must not be delayed.
So with a clench of his teeth, he turned and went out the door.
On the way, the little chubby cub's security value kept dropping, and for every few dozen steps Xue Yao took, the system would prompt the security to be reduced by 1 point.
It took 15 points in a row before the deduction didn't continue.
Luckily, the remaining 85 points would not cause the Seventh Prince to become a fat cub of darkness.
When Xue Yao looked back, the Green Vault Palace was already a long distance away.
He stepped out of the little chubby pup's sensory range.
This terrifying Dragon Ao Tian cub, it is even harder to cope with after opening up the two veins, and in the future, if he really stumbles upon a high ranking person to teach him the mastery, it would still be a good thing!
The next day, according to the plan, Xue Yao still followed the Crown Prince's caravan out of the capital.
On the way to board the grain ship to Zhejiang, Xue Yao heard the system prompt again that Little Fatty Pup's sense of security was reduced by 1.
How can you drop values this far away?
Xue Yao closed her eyes with worry.
The ungrateful little brat!
