It must be the exceptionally bright moonlight tonight that dazzled his eyes. If the Crown Prince couldn't stand him, he would be making sarcastic remarks. How could it be just a glare from him?
So he must have been overthinking.
When he saw clearly that Hua Liuli was lying on a pile of dry leaves, covered in blood, he was immediately startled. This was no longer a person, but clearly a bloodied figure.
He quickly grabbed the cloak brought by the guard and ran three steps in two to reach them. He tore off a piece of the cloak and was about to bend down to cover Hua Liuli when the Crown Prince snatched the cloak from his hand, his tone cold, "Eldest Brother, leave it to Gu."
Ying Wang was so scared by his polite and courteous demeanor that he trembled, watching the Crown Prince gently cover Fushou Junzhu with the cloak, "Has the physician arrived?"
"Your Highness, I am here," two physicians crawled and rushed over, perhaps considering the identity of Fushou Junzhu before they came, they specifically brought a few female physicians along.
"Junzhu's wound is deep. The area near her shoulder blade was almost pierced by a sword," the head female physician carefully examined the wound, "Fortunately, the weather hasn't been too hot in the past two days, so the wound hasn't worsened."
"Your Royal Highness, we can only provide basic treatment to stop the bleeding for Junzhu at the moment. Her injuries require rest," The head female physician looked at Fushou Junzhu's fair and tender arm with a wound from a sword, her movements extremely gentle and cautious, afraid of causing pain to this delicate Junzhu.
"It's all Gu's fault," The Crown Prince gently held Fushou Junzhu's uninjured arm, "If she didn't block that sword for me, Junzhu wouldn't have been so severely injured."
With just a single statement, countless thrilling scenes were imagined by the people present. Assassins targeting the Crown Prince, the delicate Fushou Junzhu fearlessly standing in front of the Crown Prince to protect him, and so on.
Rescuing a beauty has always been a timeless classic, but a beauty saving her beloved is also a classic tale that has been passed down for centuries.
Moreover, Fushou Junzhu was a delicate and sickly beauty. This delicate little girl was willing to risk her life to save others. How loyal, affectionate, and touching it was!
In the past, there were people in the capital who lamented that the two generals had spent half their lives on the battlefield, but unexpectedly gave birth to a frail and delicate woman who would collapse at the slightest breeze.
Now their views had changed instantly. Although Fushou Junzhu had a weak physique, her soul was resilient and brave. She was truly worthy of being a descendant of the Hua family.
The female physicians pulled the curtains, keeping all the men outside.
The wound was bloody. To prevent the wound from becoming swollen and infected, the female physicians had to wash away the dirt on the wound with a medicinal solution and then bandage it.
"Junzhu, this medicine is a bit strong. Please endure it for a moment," The head female physician opened the bottle containing the medicinal solution and said to Fushou Junzhu, who was still conscious, "I apologize in advance."
At times like this, they would rather have the injured person faint, so at least they wouldn't struggle during the wound treatment.
"Wait," The Crown Prince lifted the temporary curtain set up by the female physicians, disregarding his image. He knelt beside Fushou Junzhu, gently bent over, and lightly embraced half of her body, "Go ahead."
The head female physician's hand trembled, almost spilling the medicinal solution. Had the intimacy between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Fushou Junzhu gone a bit too far?
"Junzhu, are you ready?" The head female physician looked at Hua Liuli's exposed shoulder and arm. Seeing her nod slightly, she took a deep breath and said to other female physicians, "Let's proceed."
The female physicians spoke in unison and held down Hua Liuli's legs. The head female physician poured the medicinal solution onto the wound and started cleaning it.
If you were to ask Hua Liuli how she felt at this moment, she had no feelings at all except for the piercing pain.
If it weren't for the presence of the Crown Prince, she would have instinctively lost control of her image and screamed out in pain by now. Large drops of cold sweat trickled down her forehead, and she tightly held the Crown Prince's hand, intermittently saying, "Your Royal Highness... Does this count as enduring hardship and suffering?"
"Our Liuli is the most powerful and beautiful hero," The Crown Prince's shoulders trembled more intensely than Hua Liuli's. He wanted to urge the female physicians to be quicker, but he was also afraid of frightening them, causing them to make Hua Liuli's pain worse with a trembling hand.
Seeing that the Crown Prince embraced Fushou Junzhu, the head female physician hurriedly applied the medicine to the wound and then bandaged it, "Junzhu, your wound is deep. For a period of time, you must not exert force on this arm, and be careful when bathing and changing clothes. The wound must not come into contact with water."
"Thank you," Hua Liuli was already weak and feeble. She weakly held the Crown Prince's hand and managed to smile at him, "Your Royal Highness, you asked me to come back alive, and I have fulfilled your request."
"Gu knows," The Crown Prince used a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from Hua Liuli's forehead, "You're tired, rest for a while."
"I'm in too much pain to sleep," Hua Liuli looked up at the bright moon in the sky, "The moon tonight is so beautiful."
After surviving a catastrophe, when she looked at everything in the world again, she realized how beautiful everything was. Not to mention the moon in the sky, even the vibrant grass growing by her head seemed full of vitality.
Being alive was truly wonderful.
"Not as much as you," The Crown Prince had a stretcher brought over. He wanted to carry Hua Liuli onto the stretcher, but her maids acted swiftly and in the blink of an eye, they had placed her on the stretcher.
"Your Highness, I'm covered in dirt and blood. I don't look presentable at all," Hua Liuli saw the disappointment on the Crown Prince's face as if he had missed the chance to hold her and couldn't help but laugh, "Your Royal Highness, don't just casually praise me just because of the debt of gratitude you owe me for saving your life."
"Even if a precious pearl is covered in dust, it remains the most beautiful and dazzling pearl. To Gu, the Junzhu is the brightest pearl," The Crown Prince stood up from the ground and stood beside Hua Liuli, "Moreover, even if Gu wants to repay the debt of gratitude, Gu won't just praise you with a few words."
"Gu would rather..." The Crown Prince leaned closer to Hua Liuli's ear and whispered, "Offer myself to you."
Yuan Yi, who had good hearing, trembled slightly. She glanced at Junzhu lying on the stretcher, who showed no intense reaction, and briefly pondered before silently moving aside.
Junzhu had grown up and knew how to judge the good people around her. Those who served as subordinates should know their place.
The most difficult task was left to those who were carrying the stretcher. They couldn't walk too fast or too slow, they had to carefully match the Crown Prince's pace, pretending not to notice the intimate gestures between the Crown Prince and Fushou Junzhu.
However, if there was someone in the world who, despite being weak and fragile, was willing to step forward and risk their lives to protect others, they would also be moved.
Before they could finish contemplating, Ying Wang walked briskly over and said to Hua Liuli on the stretcher, "Fushou Junzhu, Benwang heard from the female physicians that you were severely injured and may be left with scars?"
Hua Liuli looked at Ying Wang, who seemed somewhat excited, and remained silent.
What did this mean, finding joy in someone else's misfortune?
"Although Junzhu will have scars, Benwang will not despise you. Benwang is willing to marry you as my Wangfei..."
The Crown Prince rolled up his robe and kicked the back of Ying Wang's knee, causing him to fall to the ground with a thud.
"Sorry, after Gu fell down from the cliff and Gu's leg has been a bit uncooperative," The Crown Prince retracted his foot and expressionlessly pointed ahead, "Eldest Brother, it's difficult to walk in the dark. You go ahead and scout the path."
Ying Wang glared at the Crown Prince in anger, but in front of everyone, as a prince, he had to follow the Crown Prince's orders. Otherwise, it would be seen as disrespectful.
The Crown Prince had never felt his Eldest Brother to be a nuisance until now. He smiled at Hua Liuli and said, "Eldest Brother is impulsive and thoughtless. Don't take his words to heart."
Hua Liuli blinked, feeling as if the stars in the sky were also blinking at her.
"Your Majesty!" Zhao Sancai ran into the palace with a joyful expression on his face and didn't bother with formalities, "The Crown Prince has been found!"
Emperor Changlong, who had been sleepless all night, was suddenly delighted, "Is the Crown Prince injured?"
"The Crown Prince only has some minor external injuries, nothing serious. It is said that when they fell down the slope, Junzhu protected the Crown Prince's head with her arm," The joy on Zhao Sancai's face faded slightly, and he secretly glanced at Hua Yingting, who was also waiting in the hall, "However... Junzhu's injuries are severe."
"What happened?!" Emperor Changlong became anxious upon hearing that his future daughter-in-law was seriously injured, "How serious is it?"
"Fushou Junzhu was injured and couldn't rush back, so Ying Wang sent someone back to deliver the news first," Zhao Sancai explained, "It is said that after the Crown Prince and Junzhu took refuge in the forest, Junzhu was worried that the assassins would find the Crown Prince. She deliberately led them in the opposite direction, putting herself in danger. In the end, the assassins discovered her. They intended to kill Junzhu with a sword, but the Crown Prince rushed over to stop them. However, there were a lot of assassins and the Crown Prince was overpowered. Just as they were about to strike the Crown Prince with a sword, Fushou Junzhu intercepted the blow with her body."
"Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Crown Prince threw a smoke bomb he had on him and pulled Junzhu to escape. However, they were chased by the assassins and reached a dead end. The Crown Prince lost his footing and fell down the slope. Junzhu tried to hold onto the Crown Prince, but being weak herself and severely injured, she couldn't hold him and they both fell."
Hua Yingting's lips turned pale upon hearing that his daughter was seriously injured. As Zhao Sancai sadly recounted how his weak and pitiful daughter saved the Crown Prince, his expression became indescribable.
"Yingting, Fushou Junzhu truly lives up to being your daughter. Such sincerity and loyalty deeply moved Zhen..." Emperor Changlong saw Hua Yingting's pale face, feeling both guilty and proud. He felt guilty that his own son had to be protected by a frail young girl, but proud that in the face of imminent danger, the Crown Prince didn't abandon the young girl to escape alone, behaving like a true man.
"You and General Wei risked your lives to protect Zhen in the past, now it's your daughter who protected the Crown Prince by risking her own life -- it shows that our two families are truly destined."
"Your Majesty, as loyal subjects, it is our family's duty to protect Your Majesty and the Crown Prince. Your Majesty's words have truly overwhelmed me..."
"Since our two families have such a close connection, and your daughter has saved Zhen's inept Crown Prince's life, why don't we take a step closer and let the younger generation unite in eternal harmony, creating a beautiful union of yin and yang?"
"What?" Hua Yingting was taken aback by Emperor Changlong's words. What did he mean by eternal unity and the harmony of yin and yang?
Seeing his beloved general's bewildered expression, Emperor Changlong felt somewhat guilty. However, as an old father who wanted his son's happiness, he decided to cast aside his dignity, "Zhen noticed that the two youngsters get along very well. Besides Fushou Junzhu, the Crown Prince has never been so close to any other young girl. Moreover, there is an old saying among the common people; 'one should repay a life-saving favor with one's own life'. Zhen thinks it would be good for the two youngsters to be together. What do you think?"
Hua Yingting was dumbfounded, unable to speak for a while.
What grievances does His Majesty have with the Crown Prince? Why can't he find someone else to be the Crown Princess? Why does he have to choose his own daughter?
He knew his daughter better than anyone else. Despite her delicate appearance, she held was petty and held grudges. Those who offended her didn't have a good ending. The Crown Prince, with his noble status, would inevitably say or do things that would displease his daughter. What if...
Hua Yingting smiled weakly, "Although marriage is traditionally decided by the parents and matchmakers, our Great Jin Dynasty is not as rigid as the Daimao Kingdom in adhering to strict rules. In my opinion, for the sake of the two children's future, it would be better to seek their opinions first before discussing such a significant matter of life. What does Your Majesty think?"
"No need to worry, Zhen's beloved General. The Crown Prince also likes Fushou Junzhu very much," Seeing that Hua Yingting didn't directly refuse, Emperor Changlong continued to persuade shamelessly.
"My daughter is physically weak, and I'm worried..."
"In the palace, there are so many imperial physicians who can take good care of your daughter," Before Huayingting could finish speaking, Emperor Changlong interrupted, "It doesn't matter if the young girl had poor health when she was young and grew up in the harsh climate of the border. Now that she is in the capital, she will gradually recover."
It's good that she is physically weaker. This way, she won't be able to play around like her mother, breaking things with a single word. It's simply perfect.
"My little daughter grew up in the borderlands and may not understand the etiquette as well as the other noble ladies in the capital. I'm worried that her presence might hinder the Crown Prince."
"If she marries the Crown Prince and becomes the Crown Princess and future Empress, the rules she sets will be the rules. Who else would dare to make her abide by their etiquette?"
Hua Yingting felt that the Emperor's attitude was not proper. Shouldn't we be more strict and rigorous in choosing the Crown Princess, the future Empress?
"What kind of father are you?" Emperor Changlong stared at Hua Yingting, "What kind of father finds fault with his own child at every turn? Zhen thinks Fushou Junzhu is outstanding."
Although he never witnessed it, he heard a lot about how much Hua Yingting doted on his daughter. Who would have thought that he would be so critical of her?
With this in mind, Emperor Changlong advised with a serious tone, "Yingting, our Great Jin Dynasty does not have as many rigid rules as the Daimao Kingdom. We must not favor boys over girls."
Hua Yingting: "..."
What kind of baseless accusation is this?
