Chapter 626: First Time in His Life
r people, only members of the royal family could get their hands on that orchid. No one else had any chance to approach it. The palace was heavily guarded, and her people couldn’t find an opportunity..."Ah Yue, what are you doing" Hè Míng didn't expect her to suddenly seal his acupoints. He couldn't help but feel flustered.
"Crane God Physician, it was because of me that you were injured and poisoned. I cannot stand idly by and watch something happen to you." Princess Yinyue lay him down on the hay and then knelt beside him.
"Ah Yue, no!" Hè Míng already guessed what she was about to do. He was anxious and worried. Not to mention that this would damage a woman's reputation, but if she wasn't careful, she could be poisoned.
"I can!" Princess Silvermoon stubbornly lowered her head, enduring the stinging, foul smell of blood, and kissed the wound.
Her soft lips closed instinctively as they touched his icy skin, her heart a jumbled mess...
As Princess Yinyue spat out the poisoned blood mouthful by mouthful, He Crane's face gradually regained its color. She let out a long sigh, wiped the blood from her lips, tore off a piece of her skirt, and bandaged him.
Perhaps because she had never done this before, she couldn't tie it properly for half a day. She couldn't help but feel anxious: "How can I mess this up" As soon as she looked up, she saw He Ming staring at her intently. Her face blushed involuntarily: "I'm sorry, I... I'm not very good at this..."
"It's okay, you've done well already. Just let me handle it, I can do it myself." He Ming smiled faintly, her shy expression was actually quite adorable!
"Oh, I forgot." Silvermoon Princess hurriedly unblocked his acupuncture point.
“Let me see.” After being free, He Ming did not attend to his own wound but grabbed her wrist, confirming that she had no poison before letting out a sigh of relief: “Miss Yue, you are a princess, a jewel in the palm. In the future, please do not take such risks again. I am just a humble doctor from the rivers and lakes, unworthy of the Princess risking herself for me!”
"No! You deserve it! Xiao Yuge said before, you are the best senior brother in the world. In my eyes, you are indeed the best divine doctor. I saved one person, but you can save millions. Even if I came back again, I would still do so."
"Ah Yue, you..." Her reply shocked He Ming once again. He had always thought that all princesses in the world were arrogant and willful, always so high and mighty, feeling superior to everyone else, especially commoners like them. Unexpectedly, the girl before him completely overturned all his perceptions of princesses.
"Crane God Physician, although we haven't known each other for long, tonight we shared a life-or-death experience together. You shouldn't call me princess or miss, how about you call me Yue instead" Princess Yinyue gazed at him with shining eyes, filled with anticipation.
"Alright, Ayu." He Yiming smiled faintly.
"That doesn't sound very good, does it"
They smiled at each other, which eased the awkwardness somewhat.
Both of them had wet hair, one was shirtless, and the other's clothes were clinging to his body. It wasn't easy to say it wasn't awkward, but luckily Princess Silver Moon was generous and always found topics to talk about, subtly dissolving much of the embarrassment.
"Achoo!"
For some reason, Princess Silvermoon suddenly felt a bit dizzy. "I think I need to rest for a while," she said, "and you can wake me when it's daylight..." She shook her head, trying to clear it, but as soon as she stood up, she nearly fell over.
"A Yue!" Luckily, He Ming reacted quickly and caught her, but he was alarmed by how hot she felt. Instinctively, he touched her forehead: Oh no, she must have a fever. What should he do now
"It's alright, I'll just take a nap." Princess Yinyue knew she was definitely sick, but she didn't want him to worry.
Crane Ming helped her lie down on the straw, but her clothes were still wet. There was nothing here to cover herself with, and if she stayed like this, she would surely catch a fever.
He glanced at his clothes hanging nearby, they should be almost dry. He hurried to take them down, sat by the fire, held the clothes close to the flames, and prayed in his heart for them to dry quickly.
After about half an hour, his clothes were finally dry. He hurried to get them, wanting to cover her with them, but he discovered that at this moment, she was shivering all over.
He reached out and touched her forehead again, his eyebrows unconsciously furrowing: she was burning up. What should he do
He looked outside, the rain was still pouring and thunder booming. It was pitch black out there, he couldn't even find medicine, and if this went on any longer, she really would be in trouble.
What can I do
“Ah Yue! Ah Yue!” He helped her up, wanting to have her change out of her wet clothes and into the dry ones he had prepared. But after calling several times, Princess Yin Yue did not wake up, she seemed to be starting to lose consciousness.
Finally, He Ming made a bold decision: "There is no distinction between men and women in a doctor's eyes, A Yue, I have offended you!" He closed his eyes tightly, his palms hesitated as they reached toward her collar, but as soon as his hand touched the side of her neck, he instinctively pulled it back.
"Amitabha Buddha! Guilty, guilty!" He imitated his master's posture, palms pressed together. Then he steeled himself, slowly removing her clothes. He had saved countless people from death before, but never felt this nervous. His palms and forehead were covered in sweat.
He stripped her naked, then hastily covered himself with his own clothes and fled from her side, never daring to look at her again. He could even hear his own heartbeat pounding louder than the thunder outside.
He hid her clothes near the fire and then rushed out of the cave, letting the rain wash over his restless heart. He was an ordinary man, facing such a scene, he had endured it with great difficulty.
The icy rain beat relentlessly against him, on his body, his face, finally washing away the restlessness that had been churning within him.
When he returned to the cave and quickly went back to the fire, he dared not look back at her again. He thought to himself, she must be asleep by now.
There was enough firewood in the cave that he made the fire burn brighter, warming the entire cave. Perhaps because too many things had happened tonight, or perhaps he was truly tired, he actually sat by the fire, leaning against a stone and fell asleep soundly....
I don't know how long I slept, but He cried suddenly woke up because of Yin Yue princess' moan. Instinctively, he stood up and rushed to her side: "A Yue!"
"Cold! I'm so cold, so cold..." At this moment, Yue's face was red to a frightening degree, and her whole body seemed to tremble even more violently. She kept hugging her arms, muttering incoherently about how cold she was.
"Ayue!" Hè Míng tried to wake her, but after calling several times, she seemed not to hear. What should he do For the first time in his life, he panicked, even unsure of what to do.urned and walked towards the outside of the hall."You! You infuriate me! You infuriate me!"Watching Qian Tingxuan's departing figure, the Emperor was so angry that he almost fainted. An Gonggong besid...
