Chapter 48 - Stand Up

Translator: Artsy

———————-

No one had ever said such a thing in front of Qian Jiujiu. Even when her grandfather doted on her before, he never said that her tears were very precious and she didn't know why.

Qian Jiujiu felt that her eyes were burning up again, but there were no tears. Is it possible that it really precious? Qian Jiujiu frowned.

She pushed Mu Yexiao away, "I know, I won't cry so easily in the future, isn't this what the plot requires?!"

Mu Yexiao looked at Qian Jiujiu in confusion. "What kind of situation?"

Eh! Qian Jiujiu suddenly remembered something, that when she was in Minister Qian manor, she seemed to have humiliated Mu Yexiao a little, as her guilty gaze floated over.

After being together with Qian Jiujiu for such a long time, the reaction in front of Qian Jiujiu was coincidentally her guilty reaction. Mu Yexiao could still tell from the reaction, and he couldn't help but cough twice.

"What did you do in Minister manor? Why haven't you said it out yet?"

Qian Jiujiu said with a downcast face, "Do I really have to say it? If I say it, won't you hit me? "

Mu Yexiao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "It looks very serious, I won't hit you, go ahead."

Qian Jiujiu looked at Mu Yexiao's expression, and it seemed as if he really wasn't angry, and couldn't help but feel a little relieved: "Actually, I didn't say anything too excessive either."

"I just said that you only have a little more than a month left to live, and if you die, you still want me to be buried alive. After that, I would cry all over and they would believe me."

"Of course, there was just a small episode..."

Qian Jiujiu told them everything that had happened in minister manor, and then looked at Mu Yexiao. "Mu Yexiao, why are you looking at me like that?"

However, the corner of Mu Yexiao's lips curled up as he looked at Qian Jiujiu: "I don't even know, so it turns out that I'm still this important to Jiu'er, actually want to be buried for me."

Qian Jiujiu instantly widened her eyes: "Who wants to be buried for you? Hey, what do you want to do?"

However, Mu Yexiao smiled charmingly, "I just think that this is a good idea. If something happens to me in the future, you should just bury alive so that we can be together for all our lives."

Qian Jiujiu curled the corner of her mouth: "I'm already unlucky enough to have met you in my life. Moreover, I don't love you, why would I be together with you for all my life?

"Alright, I'll go stew soup for you."

After she finished speaking, Qian Jiujiu fled in panic, because when she just said that she did not love him, she saw Mu Yexiao's face darken. The circumstances seemed like the troubles lie ahead of her.

It was better to dodge first. Watching Qian Jiujiu trotting off, Mu Yexiao could not help but feel extremely depressed. Even if you don't love me, you shouldn't do it in front of me.

Say it so casually. It hurts one's feelings, okay?

However, there was still a lot of time in the future, and sooner or later, she would fall in love with him.

Very quickly, Qian Jiujiu finished cooking the soup and carried it in. Seeing that Mu Yexiao was no longer angry, she heaved a sigh of relief.

But she completely ignored it. Why did she care about whether Mu Yexiao was angry or not?

"Come, have some soup."

Mu Yexiao drank the bone soup right away.

Perhaps it was because Qian Jiujiu's performance in the study was just too realistic, causing Minister Qian and the Third Prince to believe her. Or perhaps they felt that a month's time wasn't too long.

Unwilling to take the risk, one month was enough to him to ascend. Anyway, in the entire Capital of the Great Zhou, to the extent that not a single doctor in the surrounding countries could cure Mu Yexiao.

Thus, the Third Prince did not plan to make a move at this time to provoke the Emperor. In short, the first week had quietly passed just like that.

On this day, Qian Jiujiu was currently checking Mu Yexiao and preparing to change her medicine when she realized that even if Mu Yexiao couldn't get out of bed, he was cultivating his internal energy everyday, and he was also young.

During this week, his legs had already recovered. At least he could remove the splint. This way, he would be able to do some movement.

As Qian Jiujiu removed the splint, she sighed, "Your highness, your body is really good, to be able to remove it so quickly. It looks like you don't need to take three months to recover."

She was already used to seeing Mu Yexiao from a modern perspective, she just forgot that Mu Yexiao knew martial arts, once the poison was dispelled, he only needed to recuperate a little, and his body would be able to recover.

This body is really good. Qian Jiujiu was a little envious, and in the past few days, when she was free, either she would tell Mu Yexiao stories or Mu Yexiao would teach her inner force skills.

It was a pity that she did not seem to have any talent, and perhaps it was because she was old that she did not appear to be very powerful, perhaps even average.

However, Qian Jiujiu was very satisfied with this, after all, how could there not be a perfect person, with just a bit of inner strength, coupled with her fighting technique, there was no problem to protect herself.

After taking off the splint, Mu Yexiao could sit on the wheelchair again, and go outside, but he still could not use too much strength, and continued to eat.

Just like that, a month silently passed. After a month, Mu Yexiao could finally go down to train and walk.

Qian Jiujiu stood in front of Mu Yexiao, and looked at him: "It's been a month, and I think you've pretty much recovered. How about this, Mu Yexiao. Try to stand up first. "

Actually, Mu Yexiao had already wanted to stand up a long time ago, but he couldn't take it anymore.

He looked at Qian Jiujiu. "Then I'll stand up."

After saying that, Mu Yexiao was about to stand up, but Dong Chen and the others were waiting on the side.

And today, their God of War king was finally going to stand up again. Thinking about it here, all of them became excited, their eyes opened wide as they looked at Mu Yexiao.

To be honest, Mu Yexiao was also excited and a little nervous at the same time. Qian Jiujiu arrived in front of Mu Yexiao, looked at him, and said softly, "Come on, it's alright. Stand up."

Mu Yexiao looked at Qian Jiujiu, and suddenly extended his hand to pull Qian Jiujiu's hand. Then, under the crowd's gaze, he slowly stood up, and truly stood up.

Qian Jiujiu nodded in satisfaction: "Mu Yexiao, you've stood up, I've fulfilled my promise."

Seeing Mu Yexiao stand up, Qian Jiujiu was also very happy. When Mu Yexiao stood up, he and the Mu Yexiao on the wheelchair, instantly made people feel that something was different.

The Mu Yexiao who stood up, had a type of imposing aura, like an eagle soaring in the sky. He overlooked everything, and only when Qian Jiujiu blinked her eyes did she remember.

The man in front of him was a God of War who had experienced a lot of battles. Frowning, Qian Jiujiu thought of a question: "Mu Yexiao, how did you get injured in the first place?"

When Mu Yexiao thought about how he was injured back then, he frowned and bit his lips. Qian Jiujiu blinked her eyes: "If you don't want to say, then so be it. Don't say it."

"I don't hope that you can still have a second chance."

Mu Yexiao lowered his head and looked at Qian Jiujiu's blabbering appearance. He was clearly just speaking words of concern, but when he hugged Qian Jiujiu again, Qian Jiujiu immediately quieted down: "You can't stand steadily anymore, sit down first."

Mu Yexiao was helpless, it was truly a scene to behold, "I am able to stand steadily, but I suddenly want to hug you."

Qian Jiujiu rolled her eyes: "You clearly want to be a hooligan, hurry up and let go, a man and a woman shouldn't be so intimate with each other, you don't even know that."

Hearing Qian Jiujiu's words, the corner of Mu Yexiao's lips raised upwards: "Can I walk now?"

Qian Jiujiu directly shook her head: "No, today you can just stand up, we have to recover step by step, by all means, do not let your hard work fall short due to overwork, do you understand?"

"In the future, I'll walk for an hour every day. In another half month, I'll be able to walk like a normal person."

"Mu Yexiao, you're great, other people need a hundred days to recuperate from all the injuries, but you only used half of them."

The corner of Mu Yexiao's mouth twitched. Was this something worth showing off?

"Do you accompany me every day?"

Qian Jiujiu nodded: "Naturally. I won't leave before you completely recover."

After saying this, Mu Yexiao remembered that they had another agreement: Qian Jiujiu had treated him and he would help Concubine Wan to leave Minister manor openly.

Qian Jiujiu could leave now, but when he thought of how Qian Jiujiu was going to leave, Mu Yexiao's heart sank. He was a little unhappy, but he couldn't force others not to leave either.

After all, he was a grown man forcing a woman and she was his benefactor, so he couldn't do it. Fortunately, he still had half a month, and it was only half a month, so how could he move Qian Jiujiu's heart?

However, Qian Jiujiu did not pay attention to what Mu Yexiao was thinking. Instead, she supported Mu Yexiao and walked two steps forward, after which, she let Mu Yexiao sit back down on the wheelchair.

Qian Jiujiu then looked at Dong Chen, "Dong Chen, go and call imperial physician over tomorrow. You must let him know, his highness condition right now cannot be announced."

"Then withdraw the visitors declination. This princess will be out for a walk as well. Also, this princess drugstore will be opened soon."

"If you can't do it, wait until this princess leaves prince manor, have nothing to eat?"

To be honest, Qian Jiujiu had already cured their prince, Dong Chen and the rest of them had completely acknowledged her, but she was still planning to leave, causing them to not know what to say.

Dong Chen looked at his master and Mu Yexiao nodded. Only then did Dong Chen reply: "Yes your highness, I'll go and get the imperial physician right now."

With that, Dong Chen left. Qian Jiujiu looked at Mu Yexiao, "Mu Yexiao, you better not tell the imperial physician that I treated you. I don't want so many people to bother me."

"All I have to do is sell some pills and earn some money. After that, I will go to a beautiful place with mountains and rivers, build a small courtyard, and live a life without worldly affairs with my mother. I think it's beautiful. "

The more Qian Jiujiu spoke, the more excited she became, and she completely ignored the Mu Yexiao who had a dark complexion.
