Xie Xuan looked at the scene quietly. He knew that he had neither the qualifications to step forward nor to speak.
The eldest princess is high and mighty. No matter who she wants, whether it is Prince Consort Pei, Young General Shen, or even a random stranger, it is all up to her to decide based on her preference, and no one else can interfere.
This "others" naturally includes him.
Therefore, even though his heart was broken, he could do nothing but watch silently, and he should do nothing.
As a personal guard, the most important thing he should do now is to retreat quietly and pretend that he had never been there.
"Your Highness."
Who is speaking? It must not be him.
"I have something to report."
Whoever walked past, it must not be him.
Xie Xuan watched himself walk up to the two of them and used a high-sounding excuse to break that warm and beautiful scene.
Xie Shaocheng, what are you doing!
Xie Xuan reacted, stopped his reckless behavior, and prepared to leave:
"If your highness needs anything, I will come back later."
Su Fengyi saw that it was Xie Xuan and said with a smile:
"You are already a marquis, why do you still call me humble? You must change the title of humble from now on."
He waved to Dangui again and said:
"Dangui, come and help the young general water the plants."
Su Fengyi handed the kettle to Dangui, then called Xie Xuan and said:
"You come with me."
Xie Xuan followed Su Fengyi and walked towards the study room while replying:
"No matter who I am in front of others, in front of Your Highness, I will always be Your Highness's subordinate."
Dangui took the kettle and looked at Captain Xie who was following the princess. No, now he should be called Commander Xie. She thought that Commander Xie must have something extremely urgent to do.
After all, the atmosphere between the Princess and Young General Shen was just right, so she knew the limits and stayed aside. Normally, Commander Xie was the one who had the best understanding with His Highness and understood His Highness the best.
If it weren't for an urgent matter, Commander Xie would definitely not have rushed forward so rashly.
So, what is this? I don't know how serious it is.
Could it be that the mission His Highness had ordered has been completed?
Dangui was distracted while thinking, and a pot of water was poured on Shen He's sleeve. She quickly apologized:
"Sorry, sorry..."
Shen He, whose sleeves were drenched with water, didn't notice at all that when the eldest princess turned around and left, his eyes were unconsciously stuck on her and followed her.
Shen He stared at the eldest princess who had already left, and only looked away after she entered the house.
It was a happy day, but for some reason, I suddenly felt a little unhappy.
Hey, why should I be unhappy?
I gave her the flowers, she said she liked them, and I returned the gifts I should have given her. It was a perfect ending.
What am I unhappy about?
Shen He thought doubtfully that it might be because she didn't say anything just now, but looked at him gently, and poured water for him to wash his hands. She was very gentle, very different from usual, and he might not have seen enough.
Shen He came back to his senses and saw that his sleeves were wet. He apologized to Dan Gui instead:
"Sorry, sorry, I was distracted."
……
Su Fengyi took Xie Xuan into the inner room of the study and asked him:
"what's up?"
Although Xie Xuan's action of stepping forward and speaking just now was a bit impulsive and reckless, he did have important business to discuss with Su Fengyi.
That day, knowing that His Highness might have been poisoned by a drug, Xie Xuan not only sent palace soldiers to search far and wide for Taoist Qingfeng, but he also found the notes of Taoist Qingfeng's previous lectures.
As for medicinal Gu, Xie Xuan said that he did not delve too deeply into it. The main reason was that medicinal Gu came from Miaojiang and was a kind of witchcraft, which was usually passed down through blood.
Many witchcraft techniques require the practitioner to use his or her own blood as a medium to manipulate the technique, so it is difficult for people other than the Miao people to learn them.
This was also the reason why Taoist Qingfeng taught Xie Xuan the art of using medicine and poison, but he could only explain the theory and had no way to help Xie Xuan practice it.
Xie Xuan, who had rich theoretical knowledge but zero practical experience, was not prepared to wait for Taoist Qingfeng to appear. He planned to confirm some simple questions without endangering His Highness.
For example, whether His Highness was poisoned by a drug.
Xie Xuan said:
"I have found the Heavenly Silkworm, which can be used to confirm whether Your Highness has been poisoned by the poisonous drug, but, but..."
The things that can make Xie Xuan say "just" and make him feel embarrassed must be tricky matters.
Su Fengyi couldn't help but frown when she heard him say that, and asked him:
"What's the difficulty?"
Xie Xuan hesitated and said:
"I need a drop of your highness' blood."
If it was just one drop of blood, Su Fengyi believed that Xie Xuan would not be so embarrassed, so the conditions for this drop of blood might be quite special.
Combining the characteristics of the medicinal Gu and Xie Xuan's hesitant attitude, Su Fengyi speculated that the medicinal Gu should be used to take effect, and the host's blood would be consumed when the conditions were met.
When the drug poison takes effect, if it is really a drug poison, combined with the effect it produces on her, it is the moment when she is in a love affair and is aroused.
No wonder Xie Xuan was in such a dilemma.
Xie Xuan looked at His Highness's expression and knew that His Highness, who was so tacit, must have known his concerns and the conditions for taking blood, so he continued:
"It doesn't have to be this way, there are alternative methods, but this method is a bit more troublesome.
You can use a medicinal bath to stimulate the medicinal properties of the medicine Gu, and then apply silver needles to relieve the medicinal Gu, it is the same, but..."
This one seems to be even more difficult for Xie Xuan than the previous one.
Su Fengyi looked at him:
"You don't have a prescription, or you don't know how to use acupuncture?"
Xie Xuan's voice was so low that it could not be heard:
"I have the prescriptions for these, and I also know the acupuncture techniques. However, the needles must be placed before, during, and after the effects of the medicine, three times in total. The needles should be placed in the middle of the heart..."
So that's why. Feng Yi knew why Xie Xuan was in such a dilemma.
He is a married man, so it is really inappropriate for him to do these things. He is afraid that if his wife finds out, she will be upset with him.
Su Fengyi didn't want to embarrass him, so she said:
"It's really hard for you, is this needle technique difficult to learn?
If Dangui were to start learning now, how long would it take her to learn it?"
Xie Xuan carefully evaluated Dan Gui's qualifications and finally said:
"Back then, I studied this set of needle techniques with Taoist Qingfeng for three years, but I only learned the basics."
Even Emperor Taizu praised Xie Xuan's talent. He only learned the basics after three years of study, let alone others.
Xie Xuan said this in a tactful way, but his meaning was very clear: Dangui, no.
Su Fengyi understood, and then said:
"In that case, there is no need to force it. Let's use the first method."
I don’t know how Dangui’s mission is going.
