âYou two, carry the Prince into the room.â
Without the mood for further explanation, the Empress quietly ordered two Qilin Guards.
âYes.â
Two Qilin Guards obeyed, joined forces, and carefully carried the Little Prince into the side chamber, laying him flat on the bed.
âThe commoner girl and Cang Lan are going to perform surgery on the Little Prince, stitch the wound, and during the healing, no one is allowed to disturb.â
Lin Qingluo looked around, her voice clear and cold, with unquestionable authority.
The Serene Snow Pavilion was silent, everyone was quiet, nobody dared to provoke the Empress at this time.
Mo Canglan followed her into the side chamber.
âYou two leave as well.â
Lin Qingluo unceremoniously drove the two Qilin Guards out too.
Mo Canglan carefully closed the doors and windows, blocking everyoneâs sight.
âLetâs begin.â
Lin Qingluo exchanged a glance with him, and the tacit understanding between master and disciple allowed them to heal the Little Prince together.
Mo Canglan fed the Little Prince a bottle of Anesthesia, making sure he was deeply unconscious, unable to feel any pain.
Lin Qingluo was generous with her Spiritual Power, connecting the broken meridians.
One Shichen later, the Little Princeâs heart and lung meridians gradually healed, and his heartbeat returned to normal.
Mo Canglan stitched the wound and applied Spiritual Medicine.
The Spiritual Medicine was highly effective, and the scar could be seen healing at a visible speed, scabbing over.
âWrap it with bandages and observe for a day and night, if thereâs no fever, he should wake up smoothly tomorrow.â
Lin Qingluo withdrew her Spiritual Power and sighed with relief.
âIâll do the wrapping.â
Mo Canglan lifted the Little Prince from the back and skillfully bound the bandages.
Lin Qingluoâs eyes were gentle, âAlright, after tonight, this ordeal will be over.â
âItâs late, Master should rest, Iâll stay up.â
Mo Canglan volunteered to take on the responsibility of guarding throughout the night.
âItâs too tiring for you to do it alone, letâs take turns.â
Lin Qingluo smiled warmly, âIâll have them bring in a small bed so I can take a nap.â
âAlright.â
Mo Canglan nodded with a smile, without any objection.
The master and disciple cleaned up, wiped away the remaining blood stains, opened the door, and walked out of the side chamber.
âHow is the Prince?â
Empress and Noble Lord had been waiting outside the door, and both approached as they saw them.
âThe surgery was smooth, he should wake up tomorrow after getting through tonight.â
Lin Qingluo faced them calmly, eyes still fixed on the Empress, showing no signs of submission.
âPlease take care of the Prince tonight.â
Noble Lordâs attitude was humble, with a hint of deliberate flattery.
âYixuan is like a younger brother to me, no one wishes for his safety more than I do.â
Lin Qingluoâs eyes were deep, and she looked at the Noble Lord with a cold expression, subtle implications, âUnlike those coveting power, my feelings for him are absolutely genuine.â
âI will not let this go!â
The Empressâs face darkened, and she interrupted, âWhoever dares to hurt the Prince, I will flay and debone them, their body shattered into pieces.â
Lin Qingluo flashed her eyes but didnât respond, âNoble Lord, please arrange a small bed in the room, and two more rooms, so Cang Lan and I can take turns guarding.â
Noble Lord agreed, âThatâs easy, Iâll arrange it right away.â
âOne more thing, please send someone to the Duke of Zhenâs residence and inform my family about what happened in the palace at your discretion.â@@novelbin@@
Lin Qingluo was thoughtful, âIâve been away all night, and my family is probably worried.â
âOf course, come.â
Noble Lord smiled lightly and summoned a Shadow Guard.
