Brother Huang, he has been planning for a long time

"The moon is clear!" He Lanyan noticed the assassin's move, and the people beside him rushed towards the moon clear river.

He wanted to reach out and grab her, but he felt her hair passing through his hands.

Watching helplessly as the assassin's sword slashed at her...

Yue Qinghe reacted and wanted to pull her away, but found that it was too late...

The dazzling light of the long sword passed through his eyes, and the sword edge slashed across her back. The long sword in Yue Qinghe's hand pierced directly into his forehead, and the sword passed through.

This time, the masked assassin's eyes widened and he fell straight down.

There was a burning pain in his back, and Qingchen fell powerlessly into Yue Qinghe's arms.

"Brother Emperor..." Seeing that he was fine, she slightly curled her lips and breathed out relievedly.

"You...I can avoid it, but you shouldn't..." Yue Qinghe's big hand held her back, and she could clearly feel a damp heat in her palm.

"The moon is clear." He Lanyan stepped forward quickly and saw that her back was injured, and the blood instantly dyed her clothes red, "Give her to Gu, Gu will take her back for treatment."

He was about to take over and hug her, but Yue Qinghe directly picked her up and said, "It's too late. I have medicine on me. I need to find a place to apply medicine to her to stop the bleeding."

Judging from the extent of the bleeding on her back, the wound was so deep that it was possible that the bones were visible.

When he carried her back to the boat, she was afraid she would lose too much blood and go into shock.

Jiang Ling hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, when I came here just now, I saw a cave not far from here."

"Lead the way." He Lanyan hurriedly ordered.

……

In the cave, Jiang Ling lit a fire and retreated.

He Lanyan took off his robe and placed it on the ground. Yue Qinghe placed Qingchen on his robe. Looking at the wound on his back, his heart felt like being pricked by needles, and the pain made him unable to breathe.

Qingchen was in so much pain that he couldn't speak and lay weakly on the ground.

Yue Qinghe's clothes and palms were all stained with her blood, and the cave was suddenly filled with a faint smell of blood.

He took out the medicine bottle and tried to untie her belt, but He Lanyan grabbed her wrist, "What are you doing?"

"Apply medicine." He answered concisely and forcefully, his dark eyes as cold as snow.

He Lanyan's face darkened, "Although you are her royal brother, there are always differences between men and women. How can you take off her clothes?"

Yue Qinghe snorted coldly, "Let go."

"You..." He Lanyan refused to give in and took the medicine bottle on the side, "Come and give her medicine."

"You and her are not married at all and are not suitable."

"No matter how inappropriate it is, it is more suitable than one of your brothers taking off her clothes."

"Let go!" Yue Qinghe stared at him coldly.

"You are the one who should let go." He Lanyan grabbed his wrist harder.

Yue Qinghe said without changing her expression: "He Lanyan, if she doesn't love you, she can't let you take the medicine."

"What you are saying is ridiculous. She is Gu's concubine. How could Gu let another man take off her clothes and apply medicine on her? Even if you are her brother!" Because the brother is also a man.

Qingchen felt like he was about to lose consciousness, and the two of them were still arguing about who should give the medicine.

"Don't make any noise..." Qingchen made a weak voice.

She didn't want He Lanyan to give the medicine, but if she asked Yue Qinghe to give the medicine in front of He Lanyan, wouldn't it make He Lanyan suspicious?

"Brother Emperor..." She called out in a weak voice.

"I'm here, how do you feel?" Yue Qinghe shook off his hand and came closer to her. Seeing her pale face and even her lips, his eyes were filled with distress.

"Let him take medicine." She closed her eyes and said feebly.

Hearing this, Yue Qinghe suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in her heart. Although she understood why she said that, she just didn't want He Lanyan to be suspicious of his relationship with her.

but……

Asking him to give her up to another man right before his eyes...

But he couldn't do it at this time...

But staring at her pale face due to excessive blood loss, he finally chose to get up and walk out of the cave.

When He Lanyan saw him coming out of the cave, he immediately tore her clothes apart, exposing her white back.

A wound on the upper body opened from the shoulder to the waist, and the flesh at the shoulder blade was opened, revealing the white bones inside.

He Lanyan took a breath and carefully sprinkled the medicine on her back.

Seeing her shrinking down due to the pain caused by the medicine, his eyes darkened, "Your relationship with Yue Qinghe's brother and sister is so good that you would risk your life for him, right?"

Qingchen endured the stinging pain on his back and opened his eyes slightly to look at the entrance of the cave, "Brother Emperor, he is... the Dongming Kingdom... all hope... nothing will happen."

He Lanyan fell silent after hearing this.

Although I believed what she said, I still felt that the relationship between the two of them did not seem like an ordinary brother-sister relationship...

Even if the relationship between brother and sister is really ordinary, when the elder brother is in danger, how can ordinary people say that they rush forward to block the knife for him regardless of their own safety?

Just like that time he blocked an arrow for her...

At that time, I had one thought: I would never let anything happen to her...

What about her?

What was going through her mind the moment she defended her royal brother from the knife?

He also hoped that he was overthinking it.

Next, he briefly treated her wound attentively and carefully.

He used the outer robe to cover the exposed parts of her body. He Lanyan stood up and walked outside the cave. He originally wanted Jiang Ling to go back and find someone to come over.

Not wanting Jiang Ling to be gone, he could only look at Yue Qinghe, "Where are Gu's guards?"

"He went back to the boat to mobilize manpower." Yue Qinghe glanced at him, turned around and entered the cave. When he saw the person wrapped in the robe, his eyes moved slightly, and he walked to her side and asked, "Does it still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore." The hair on Qing Chen's forehead was wet with cold sweat, but she still tried her best to smile at him, hoping to tell him that she really didn't hurt.

Yue Qinghe reached out and touched her pale face, "Don't do such a dangerous move next time."

"Okay." Qingchen responded, took a breath, and felt pain in her back, making her couldn't help but frown slightly.

Although she said it well, she knew it very well. If she encounters such a situation again, she will do the same thing.

He sighed deeply in his heart, knowing that her wound must be very painful, but he could not do anything for her.

Even after He Lanyan's people arrived, she was about to be picked up.

At this moment, the urge to take her away at all costs flashed through his heart.

But looking at her pale face, he finally suppressed the thought.

Jiang Ling was very fast and brought Yuli and the Shadow Guards, as well as a carriage.

Yuli checked Qingchen's wound again. The bleeding had stopped, but the wound needed to be treated more carefully, otherwise it might become infected and leave scars.

Qingchen was carried into the carriage by He Lanyan. Before leaving, he said to Yue Qinghe: "Gu Zi will take good care of her. You should take your people back to Dongming Kingdom. Mu Yun can't find you here in Bo Yue City. You may suspect that Gu's ship is coming, so don't stay in Luoshui City for too long."

"Thank you for your concern. I know my own rules." Yue Qinghe paused, "Protect Qingchen."

"Lonely."

The carriage started to leave, and Yue Qinghe stood there and watched the carriage leave.

This time we say goodbye, I don’t know when we will see each other again.

Qingchen, you must be good.
