The prince disliked her, and the legitimate daughter was reborn and married to the regent

"Zi~"

The moment the blade touched the meat, she could clearly smell the burnt smell, which made Yun Nian's thoughts wander to the roasted rabbit she had just eaten.

But now was obviously not the time to think about these things, so she quickly shifted her attention to Wei Qingjue.

The five claws left holes, not evenly spaced but very close together, on his left chest. The flesh around them turned black and purple, looking extremely scary.

Although Yun Nian's hands were shaking at first, they were incredibly steady when they dropped the ball.

"do not move!"

She scolded in a low voice, the situation was already so serious, but this injured guy still had the mind to laugh here, laughing so hard that his body was shaking,

"I'm sorry, you look so serious."

He was somewhat fascinated. Of course, he did not say the last two words, lest the man holding the dagger get angry and stab him.

Yun Nian didn't know what was going on in Wei Qingjue's mind at the moment. She controlled the movement of her hands, moving them down quickly and fiercely to ensure that only the damaged parts were removed. She would stop once she saw bright red flesh.

This was really draining her mental energy. After each small hole was cut, she had to stop and put the blade on the flame to roast it, and then repeat the cycle.

When she was extremely nervous, her body also became hot, and the sweat on her forehead could not bear it and fell down, gently hitting someone's abdomen, which made him shudder and suddenly tense his body.

"Don't move."

He looked over with a reproachful look, but Wei Qingjue was speechless. He took a few deep breaths, his chest rising and falling, his fingers clenched into fists behind his back, and his eyes looked away suspiciously.

"knew."

After Yun Nian finally cleaned up the rotten meat, he breathed a sigh of relief. After all, Wei Qingjue seemed much more sober now.

"Is this okay? Should I re-bandage you?"

The white cloth from before definitely can't be used anymore. Looks like I have to take off another piece of undergarment.

She was thinking this, but the man in front of her shook his head.

"Not even close, Yun Nian. The wound inside is still festering. I can feel it. If we don't remove the inside part, I'm afraid it will only be a temporary solution and not a permanent cure."

Wei Qingjue shook his head helplessly, then took Yun Nian's hand and gently moved it towards his wound.

"Poke it in, turn it around, and use the heat of the flame to completely destroy it. It'll be quick, okay?"

Not good, not good at all.

Yun Nian's eyes opened wide, almost in disbelief. It would be fine to just cut off the flesh near the wound, but wouldn't it be more serious if he inserted the blade inside?

Moreover, how could he bear the pain of being injured again? Just think about it, the pain outside and inside can't be the same, right?

"No...you...this will hurt."

But if she didn't do this, the wound wouldn't be able to heal completely. She could see from Wei Qingjue's eyes that he was also unwilling to let Yun Nian do such a painful thing, but he had no other choice.

"You did a great job just now, didn't you? It was only a brief pain, I'm used to it."

He stretched his body with all his strength, and then gave Yun Nian a relaxed smile, as if he would not have any complaints even if Yun Nian stabbed deeper with the dagger.

"It's just therapy, isn't it?"

He was right. Yun Nian knew that he had to follow his instructions. Even if it was painful, Wei Qingjue would have to bear it himself.

The red-hot knife pointed at the wound and stabbed it, moving lightly along the inner wall. Wei Qingjue grabbed her hand and immediately exerted force, his body shaking uncontrollably.

It hurts so much.

He had to bite his teeth hard to swallow the cry of pain, but he still couldn't control his body's instinctive reaction.

"This... this will be very painful for you."

The transparent mist soon gathered into water droplets, which continuously fell from those clear eyes.

"How can treatment require stabbing a knife into one's chest? How could Korro be so mean? If I had known earlier, I should have picked up my zither and swung it hard on his head."

It was clearly she who was in pain, but Yun Nian burst into tears like the person whose heart was stabbed by a dagger. While crying, she looked at Wei Qingjue with her stubborn eyes, which softened his painful heart.

"It's actually not bad..."

"Woo woo, didn't they say he was your father? How could there be such a father? He's such a piece of shit, bastard!"

As she cursed, she continued to place the knife on the flame. The regent was so amused that he was afraid she would burn his hand.

"I'll do it myself once I have my strength back, okay? That's all for today."

He wanted to let it go, but the girl in front of him just glared at him, but her hands were merciless.

"No, what if the wound gets infected again? I don't want to die here with you!"

She spoke while crying, but her hand was steady and fast. She stabbed in and made a circle. Wei Qingjue's body tensed and relaxed, and she finally relaxed when all the wounds were treated.

"All right."

Yun Nian threw the dagger into his arms, and then wiped his eyes with his sleeve.

In the firelight, her eyes were red, just like the rabbit caught in the daytime, making people feel pity for her.

Wei Qingjue's eyesight became a little blurry. He had managed to hold on until the end of the treatment. He was so sleepy that his spirit seemed to have been overdrawn.

But he still forced himself not to fall asleep, and told Yun Nian,

"I'm fine. I'm just too sleepy and need to have a good rest. Remember not to let the fire go out, otherwise it might attract dangerous things... and..."

He closed his eyes before he finished speaking. In his last sight, he only saw the girl seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then approached him.

It's warm, like hiding under the shade of a tree.

It may not be strange to say this, but compared to the cold bottom of the well and the scorching sun, he was happiest when he was under the tree.

Even if there are no leaves on the tree, even if the big tree he lives in is dead, the trunk can still cover his small body.

He was already too tired. He didn't understand why his mother hated him so much. Was it just because of this pair of black eyes? He saw that his sister Fuqiu had a pair of bright green eyes, and sometimes he envied her.

But later his eyes changed back to dark green, but his mother still didn't like them. At that time, he understood that his mother just didn't like him as a person.

He wanted to escape, preferably to a place where they would never find him, like now...

Wei Qingjue woke up with a start, and felt as if something heavy was pressing on his chest.
