Chapter 120 Who Are They Protecting?

you truly not see his affection for you"Senior brother, I..." Qian Tingxuan never concealed his love for her, and she always treated it as if he was just casually speaking. She had never considered t..."Big brother, I've never been good since I was little, and people didn't like me. The King of Hell said I was too naughty, so he wouldn't take me in, and just sent me back!" Xiao Yuge tried to lighten the mood with a mischievous tone. She felt Chu Tianqi had lost his rationality today.

Even Ning's siblings, who were standing nearby, felt that something was off about Chu Tianqi's appearance.

“No! Ger is the most well-behaved in the world! That's why so many people can't bear to part with her, that's why God protects Ger and keeps her safe and sound.” Chu Tianqi stroked her silky hair over and over again, as if to confirm that she was truly in his arms. Thousands of words were expressed in this embrace.

"Brother, your leg isn't fully healed yet, don't stand for too long." Xiao Yuge was speechless by him. Using his leg as an excuse, she pushed him back into the wheelchair.

"Girl, as long as you can return safely, brother would be willing to cripple these legs." Chu Tianqi's gaze never left Xiao Yuge's face.

The more he knew she was in trouble, the more heartbroken and regretful he became. He regretted not telling her his feelings, regretted not having time to make up for his past wrongs toward her, and regretted not being by her side...

"By the way, brother, I just heard from the county princess that you guys are investigating what happened to us. Have you made any progress" To ease this awkward silence that she couldn't put into words, Xiao Yuge went straight to the point.

"Temporarily... not yet." Before Chu Tianqi could answer, Ning Feng from the side replied first.

Chu Tianqi just glanced at him quickly, then nodded slightly: "Ge'er, I don't have any clues for now, but I can be sure that what happened to you this time is definitely not an accident. Don't worry, no matter what, my brother will get justice for you."

“Thank you, brother!” Xiao Yuge was very smart. At a glance at their subtle expressions just now, she immediately understood. They must have found something, but Ning Feng refused to say it out loud. It seemed that this person had a relationship with Ning Feng, and even Chu Tianqi.

At first, Xiao Yu Ge wasn't completely sure about Ning Hua. But now, seeing Ning Hua with a broken leg, she just checked it herself, and it was indeed broken. Perhaps someone would use such a ruse to frame others, but Ning Hua wouldn't. Because Ning Hua could hurt others, but never herself. That kind of person wouldn't do that to themselves, so Ning Hua could be ruled out.

If someone can tamper with the horse here, then that person must be here. And this person must be someone Ning Feng and Chu Tianqi know well, and their relationship is very close. Could it be...

At this point, she pretended to feel unwell and excused herself from the gathering, returning home to rest.

"Little Song, I'll send you back!"

As Chu Tianqi was leaving, he seemed to cast a meaningful glance at Ning Feng's direction. This scene happened to be seen by Xiao Yuge, who became even more certain of her suspicions.

After returning to her own room, she saw that Chu Tianqi had already left. She called Qingluo over, intending to give her instructions to go to a certain place. However, just at this moment, Mingyang rushed in.

"Ming Shiwei, what's wrong" As soon as she saw him, Xiao Yuge guessed that something must have happened to Qian Tingxuan.

"Miss Xiao Er, the Master's wound suddenly became unbearable. Even the imperial physician couldn't stop the pain. The Emperor has sent for you to see the Prince."

“Okay, I’ll go with you.” Xiao Yuge took the medicine box and left with Ming Yang. She thought to herself, Qian Tingxuan’s back injury didn’t hit any vital points, and she had treated him. After a night of rest, it should have improved, so why would it suddenly become unbearable

"How could the King suddenly be in so much pain" On the road, Xiao Yuge couldn't help but ask.

Mingyang shook his head: "I don't know, Your Highness was fine just a moment ago. But when the imperial physician came to administer medicine, he suddenly started experiencing excruciating pain."

"That's how it is..." Xiao Yuge secretly frowned: Qian Tingxuan, what was he trying to do again

Upon arriving at Qian Tingxuan's residence, I heard him cry out in pain. The imperial physicians by his side were frantic, wiping sweat from their brows, and even the Emperor was pacing anxiously.

"My lady pays respects to the Emperor!" Xiao Yuge at a glance saw the problem, so calmly stepped forward and bowed first.

"Rest easy, no need for formalities! Quickly, quickly show the king, what on earth is going on" The emperor doted on his younger brother, this was common knowledge. Seeing his brother in such agony, he naturally felt immense distress.

"Yes!" Xiao Yu Ge hurriedly stepped forward to check, her heart moved, and she stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Your Highness must have been injured in an acupuncture point. My master once said that there are many unknown acupuncture points in the human body. If one is accidentally injured, it will inevitably cause excruciating pain. It's all my fault that I didn't discover it yesterday, causing Your Highness such suffering. I deserve to die!"

“Stop wasting my time! Just tell me, can you alleviate the pain of the prince” The emperor didn’t understand medicine, so naturally, he couldn’t comprehend it. What mattered most to him was whether she could relieve his younger brother's suffering.

Not to mention him, even the experienced old physicians standing beside him had never heard of it. Of course, these elderly fellows naturally wouldn't come out to refute it for fear that they were ignorant and made a fool of themselves. After all, Xiao Yuge's medical skills are still somewhat famous now.

"My master taught me a unique acupuncture technique that will surely alleviate the pain, my lord!"

"What are we waiting for, let's go!"

"This..." Xiao Yuge looked at those imperial physicians with a face full of embarrassment.

"What's this, what's that! I command you, get to work at once!"

"Your Majesty, this acupuncture requires silence to be precise. With so many people around, the servant girl is afraid..."

Before Xiao Yuge could finish her words, the Emperor waved his hand dismissively and shouted at the imperial physicians, "Useless things, get out!"

“Yes! We shall withdraw!” The imperial physicians, of course, understood the unwritten rules of the martial world. Once it came to unique secret techniques, they were strictly forbidden from divulging them. Thus, they quickly retreated outside the tent.

"Ge'er, what else is there to prepare" The Emperor saw that Xiao Yu Ge was hesitant and thought she still needed to prepare something else.

"Your Majesty, just leave Ming Weishi here to help would be fine." Xiao Yuge wasn't being polite. Leaving her alone here was indeed because she was worried about people gossiping. Leaving Ming Yang behind would be different.

"Good! Mingyang, you stay!" After speaking, he also walked out.

Only Qian Tingxuan, Ming Yang, and Xiao Yuge were left in the room. Xiao Yuge signaled Ming Yang to help support Qian Tingxuan, then took a needle and lightly pricked it into Qian Tingxuan's back. At the same time, she lowered her voice and said, "Are you crazy Torturing yourself like this, do you want to die" He had caused such a stir over something that wasn't even serious. His wound had split open again because of him.

"A temporary solution." Qian Tingxuan raised an eyebrow at her, also cooperating by slowly stopping his cry of pain.allowed the National Teacher to recover and see through her facade, she would be even harder to escape from then."Night Elder Brother, I want to see Wen Shiyun!" She came to Qianjige and found Ye Wuhu...
