n.Most of those banquets were power struggles, with people trying to ingratiate themselves, and most of the noblewomen who attended had different motives.Such a "meet and greet," An Xuetang had always...After Yunsi finished speaking, he and Hanyun exchanged meaningful glances in the air.

Then, the two hurried back.

The next morning, An Xuetang merely closed her eyes for a short while before getting up to take Mo Yunjing's pulse.

However, the ending was still disappointing. From his pulse, I couldn't tell what was wrong with Mo Yunjing's body.

An Xue Tang withdrew her hand and carefully tucked the blanket around him. She couldn't bear to leave his side, but seeing him lie there, unable to wake, her heart ached as if it were bleeding. It was unbearably painful!

After staring at Mo Yunjing's sleeping face for a moment, she slowly lay down, resting her head on his chest, listening to the sound of his heartbeat.

If it weren't for the sound of his heartbeat and the warmth of his body, she probably would have gone mad by now!

"Ajing, what's wrong with you If you don't wake up, I'm going to be angry."

Only now does she truly feel the depth of pain that comes with loving someone. Every little thing he does can trigger a whirlwind of unimaginable emotions.

At first, I didn't know why I felt this way, but now I'm deeply in love. The living can die, and the dead can be reborn.

True love can bring joy and contentment, but it can also cause immense pain.

If she had the chance to choose again, she would still unhesitatingly choose to fall in love with him.

At least in this life, she had more of the warmth and flavor of human experience. She was no longer the emotionless killing machine she once was.

...no longer the same An Xue Tang, without a lover, family or friends to confide in. ...

So, this life of hers, she was desperately trying to maintain the love, family, and friendship she had finally gotten.

Whether it's Ajing, Fengming, or any friend who cares about her, she will protect them all!

Thinking of this, An Xuetang lifted her head from Mo Yunjing's chest. She gently pecked his lips and then got up to put on her clothes.

First, she went to wash up, and then she knocked on Feng Ming's door, but no one answered.

An Xuetang frowned and called out a few times, "Brother," at the door, but Feng Ming still didn't respond.

She was certain that Feng Ming had not left the room. Could he have fallen ill again

Thinking of this, An Xuetang immediately pushed the door open. After she went in, she saw someone on the bed at a glance and hurried over.

Just then, Feng Ming on the bed suddenly opened his eyes and sat up, as if he had been startled awake.

His action startled An Xuetang. She stared at him blankly. Feng Ming also looked at An Xuetang at this time. The two met eyes, neither speaking first.

"Just stared at each other for a moment, An Xuetang frowned and said, “Brother, what’s wrong with you”

Feng Ming came back to his senses, he pursed his lips and shook his head slightly, "It's nothing, brother. How did you end up here"

"I called your name several times at the door, but you didn't answer. I thought something might be wrong, so I came in without waiting for a response."

Speaking of this, An Xue Tang's inquisitive eyes narrowed slightly, "Brother, are you really alright"

Feng Ming smirked and smiled, his expression showing no hint of anything amiss. "Brother, I'm perfectly fine, you see Look at me, I'm as lively as ever. How could I possibly be unwell"

An Xuetang naturally wouldn't believe him. She hesitated for a moment, then suddenly stepped forward two paces and directly grabbed Feng Ming's wrist. Without saying a word, she felt his pulse.

As she had expected, although Feng Ming's body clearly showed signs of illness, his pulse was normal, indicating that he was physically fine.

Seeing An Xue Tang frown, Feng Ming's mouth curled into a faint smile. Then he raised his other hand, touched An Xue Tang's head, and said with a smile:

"Now do you believe me My brother is truly fine. I think he was just too tired from last night's activities, so he slept very soundly. Please don't worry."

An Xuetang retracted her hand, "Well, do you want to continue sleeping"

"No, I'm up. By the way, you came to me, didn't you want me to do something"

An Xuetang recalled what she needed to do and nodded, "I do have something that requires your help, elder brother."

"What's the matter"

"I am now going to treat a woman. I need to leave this courtyard. I hope, brother, you will help me watch over Ajing's bedside. I fear that after I leave, someone might come and do something to him."

Feng Ming smiled and affectionately rubbed her head, "You're actually afraid that I'll run around here, aren't you"

"Seeing through An Xuetang's deception, a hint of embarrassment flickered across her lips. "Brother, I didn't mean it that way."

Feng Ming rubbed her head, "Alright, as an older brother, wouldn't I know you Rest assured, Mo Yun Jing is the man you want. As long as I'm here, I'll certainly make sure nothing happens to him."

"Brother, thank you."

Feng Ming lightly tapped her forehead, "Don't be so polite with your brother, go on."

An Xuetang nodded slightly, and at this time, the masked man also had someone come to take her to that courtyard.

An Xuetang came out of Fengming Room and followed the man in the mask's men directly to that courtyard.

An Xuetang entered the Sleeping Beauty's room. The masked man sitting by the bed did not look up, he just coldly stated:

If anything were to happen to her, the consequences for your concerned King of Beijang and Mistress Fenggu would be dire. You needn't have me remind you of that.

Threat

An Xue Tang gave him a withering glance. "You needn't threaten me like that. If I were truly desperate, would your threats even matter"

"You..."

"Alright, alright, move out of the way for this Empress."

An Xuetang didn't want to say any nonsense to him. She walked straight over and told him to move, honestly, she really wasn't confident that she could wake up this Sleeping Beauty.

She again felt the pulse of this beauty. After carefully taking her pulse today, she did find something abnormal. There seemed to be some foreign object on the sleeping beauty's head, but it was very small and couldn't be detected unless she took her pulse very carefully.

An Xuetang looked up at the man, "Did a beautiful person's head get hit by something"

The man frowned, "What do you mean by that"

"It means exactly what it says. This concubine suspects that the reason this beauty hasn't woken up is because her head was once struck by a sharp weapon."

As An Xuetang spoke her guess, she kept an eye on the man's face. After she finished speaking, she realized that the Masked Man should be unaware of the Sleeping Beauty incident.

She turned her head and continued to look at the beauty on the bed, not expecting a reply.

The man had no intention of answering, because he genuinely didn't know.

An Xuetang, at this moment, directly took action and flipped the beauty over. She leaned in and began to rake through the beauty's hair, wanting to see if her head was, as she guessed, injured.

Just then, An Xuetang heard a faint breathing sound coming from about fifty meters away!

She suddenly got up. The masked man, who was already on guard against her, thought she was going to do something, so he immediately acted, grabbing her neck fiercely.ang.It's a shame that the Xi Liang Kingdom has always been harsh on men, even forbidding them from leaving the country almost entirely. They did want to go to Bei Jiang City, but without a travel perm...
