Ich legte meinen Arm um die schlanke Taille des kräftigen Mannes

Kapitel 56

It felt so comfortable, so very comfortable. Jinxuan felt like he was lying on a cloud, so comfortable, so peaceful. He could ignore everything, allowing his long-strained body and mind to relax completely. He heard someone whispering in his ear, calling his name, but he didn't want to pay attention. He just wanted to stay there forever, to live like this without thinking about anything. But suddenly, a voice rang out, shaking his heart: 'Jinxuan, you must get better soon, wake up soon!' It was Jun's voice. Jun, she seemed to be trapped, she was waiting for him…

"Jun, Jun... No, he can't stay here. He needs to get out, but he has no strength left. No matter how much he struggles, he can't move. Why? No, no, he must get out. He has so much to do! Jun is waiting for him to save her! Jun... Just thinking of Jun fills him with strength. He breaks free from his restraints and rushes towards Jun. A light seems to appear before his eyes again..."

"Jun...Jun..." Jin Xuan lay on the bed, his face pale, his eyes tightly closed, his brows deeply furrowed, his hands outstretched, grasping at the air, as if Jun were in the air above him, weak and soft murmurs urgently escaping from his mouth.

"Your Highness...Your Highness, you're finally awake!" Wei Ziqi, who was guarding the side, heard Jin Xuan's murmur and quickly came to Jin Xuan's bedside. He found that the prince's eyes had moved and he was still murmuring something. It was not a hallucination; he had indeed woken up. He shouted happily.

Upon hearing this, the other generals who were guarding the area also gathered around and excitedly exclaimed, "That's wonderful! The prince has finally woken up!"

"He's awake, he's awake, he's alright." The older General Bai was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes.

“I knew it! A small injury can’t defeat the prince! Hehe…” Zhao Zhiyang said with a silly smile.

...

"Alright, alright, go and fetch Miss Huang Ying... Say that the Prince has woken up." Wei Ziqi said with a happy smile. He couldn't contain his joy, but he remained relatively rational and didn't let his happiness cloud his judgment like the others.

Only then did everyone come to their senses. General Bai said repeatedly, "Yes, yes... Look, they're all so happy they've lost their minds. Go and invite Miss Huang over."

"No need to invite me, I've come myself." Huang Ying's voice came from the tent entrance as soon as General Bai finished speaking.

"Huang Ying, the prince has woken up. Come and see him quickly," Wei Ziqi urged happily as soon as he saw Huang Ying approaching.

"So what if they're awake? Why are you making such a fuss? They've been sleeping for so long, do they want to never wake up again? What a bunch of ignorant fools." Huang Ying muttered to herself as she slowly walked towards the bed.

Everyone heard what she said, of course! They were just too angry to speak out, after all, she was the one who saved the prince's life! Now that the prince was so badly injured, although he had woken up, he still needed her for now, and they couldn't anger her. The divine physician Huang Ying was indeed eccentric, living up to her reputation. If she was displeased, it was entirely possible that she would abandon him. Of course, they had all heard about how the emperor had been harassed when he went to seek medical help for the empress. In her eyes, there was no such thing as the emperor, the prince, or the general; whether she treated him or not depended entirely on her mood. Wasn't it said that doctors had the hearts of parents? How come she always acted according to her mood? Humph, as expected of the people of the Holy Immortal Sect, so strange. After the incident with Sheng Chi, the Holy Immortal Sect had become an evil sect in their minds. But it was true, the Holy Immortal Sect often did things unpredictably.

Huang Ying was unaware that everyone except Wei Ziqi was secretly slandering her. Even if she knew, she wouldn't care. After all, as the Empress said, being talked about wouldn't hurt her. She went straight to the bedside and sat down. Sure enough, he was awake, but still too weak to open his eyes wide. She placed her hand on Jin Xuan's pulse, which had stabilized. It seemed that this Prince Jin was indeed extraordinary, waking up so quickly despite such serious injuries.

"Huang Ying, how is the prince?" Wei Ziqi asked anxiously.

"He won't die." Huang Ying rolled her eyes at him impatiently. Why was he so nervous? Didn't he trust her medical skills?

Everyone present, including Wei Ziqi, was about to retort angrily when they heard Huang Ying say that, but when they saw the prince's deep eyes open, they immediately forgot about Huang Ying's previous rudeness and all gathered around him. The prince was the most important person.

"You..." Jinxuan finally opened his eyes, but his mind was still hazy. In his dazed state, he could only see a woman in front of him who seemed vaguely familiar.

"Your Highness." Before Huang Ying could speak, Wei Ziqi called out softly to Jin Xuan. Huang Ying turned her face away with a displeased expression and snorted.

"Ziqi?" Jinxuan called out in confusion. Wei Ziqi's sweet call brought Jinxuan back to his senses, and the scene before him slowly became clear. Why were all the generals here? What had happened? He tried to get up, but found his whole body weak and powerless. What was wrong with him?

Seeing the prince struggling to get up, Wei Ziqi stepped forward and helped Jinxuan sit up, saying, "Your Highness was injured and was unconscious for five days and five nights. Even the military doctor was helpless, and we were all very worried. Fortunately, Miss Huang is here." As he spoke, his eyes unconsciously glanced at Huang Ying.

"Divine Physician Huang Ying?" Jin Xuan looked at the girl in yellow clothes in front of the bed in confusion. It really was Huang Ying. He was injured and unconscious for five days and five nights? Injured? Jun? Where is Jun? The battle with Sheng Chi gradually surfaced in his mind, and the memory slowly returned. Jun was stabbed by Sheng Chi and then captured by Yelü Ying. No, no, he had to go and save Jun.

"Your Highness still remembers me!..." Huang Ying finally turned her face, huffing, indicating her displeasure. But before she could finish, she saw Jin Xuan struggling to get out of bed, which only made her more annoyed: It's one thing for you to ignore me, but you're so weak and still trying to act tough. She decided to ignore him. She knew Wei Ziqi and the others would stop her from getting up, giving space to those impatient fools. Actually, she was quite kind! Why did people spread rumors about her having a strange personality? She wasn't blaming anyone, okay? If anyone was to blame, it was the Empress!

"Your Highness, what are you doing? You are still very weak." Wei Ziqi quickly stopped the prince when he saw him struggling to get up.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has been captured by Yelü Ying! I...I must go and save her!" Jin Xuan gasped for breath as he tried to break free from Wei Ziqi's obstruction. A thin layer of sweat had already seeped from his forehead, but he paid no attention to it. He only wanted to save His Majesty.

"Your Highness, you've only just woken up. You should rest properly. Let Ziqi go and rescue Jun. Even if it costs me my life, I will bring Jun back safely." Wei Ziqi said to Jinxuan with a resolute expression while still trying to stop him.

He wasn't just trying to comfort Jinxuan; he was genuinely worried about Jun and desperately wanted to save him. However, the prince had been unconscious for a while, and Yelü Ying had been sending men to attack from time to time. He had to worry about the prince and Jun at the same time, and he also had to be prepared to defend against Cangliao's attacks. He had to stay away from the prince. Now that the prince had finally woken up, he could go and save Jun with peace of mind.

"No, Ziqi, you take charge of the military affairs for now. I'm going to rescue Jun right now. Jun is waiting for me to save him!" Jinxuan was also determined to rescue Aojun. He would only feel at ease if he went himself. Just thinking about the way Yelü Ying looked at Jun made him feel that Yelü Ying had designs on Jun. Now that Jun was in Yelü Ying's hands, he was sure to be in grave danger. Moreover, Jun was so badly injured. He didn't know how Jun was doing now. He didn't know how Yelü Ying would treat Jun in the past five days and five nights.

“Your Highness, you are so badly injured, how can you go? Ziqi should go instead!” Wei Ziqi insisted.

“Although your martial arts are good, they are still no match for Yelü Ying. Moreover, the Cangliao army camp is heavily guarded. I must go and check it myself to make sure you are safe,” Jin Xuan said with a heavy expression. Wei Ziqi could see that he was worried.

"So you think that with your current body you can defeat Yelü Ying, escape the heavy guards, and rescue that soldier from Cangliao's camp?" Who else but Huang Ying would dare to say such a thing to Jinxuan at this time? She had been sulking and not planning to speak, but she couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but speak sarcastically.

Honestly, doesn't she know how badly she's injured? She can barely move, yet she wants to go rescue people. She'll surely die before she even reaches the Cangliao military camp. She used so many precious medicinal herbs to revive him, and she doesn't want to waste them. As for Wei Ziqi, she doesn't want him to go either. Needless to say, if he goes, he'll never come back.

"Even if I am severely injured, it cannot stop my determination to save the Emperor. Miss Huang, thank you for your concern and for saving my life. However, I will not change my mind about rescuing the Emperor," Jin Xuan said resolutely. He was deeply worried about his injuries, but he couldn't wait a moment longer. Even if it meant death, he would go to save the Emperor. As long as he could see the Emperor, he would die without regret.

"You...it's your business if you want to die, but I don't want to waste so many precious medicinal herbs." Huang Ying angrily pointed at Jin Xuan and cursed, then smiled strangely. Before anyone could react, a silver needle had already pierced Jin Xuan's acupoint. She chuckled and said, "Hmph, let's see how you save people now. I've sealed your acupoints, making you weak all over. You'd better rest and recover! My Prince Jin, you can't move around carelessly when you're injured. Once you're healed, I won't stop you from saving as many princes as you want. Hehe..." Jin Xuan could only glare at her with murderous intent, feeling weak and powerless. Huang Ying laughed triumphantly.

"Huang Ying, how could you treat the Prince like this?" Wei Ziqi angrily rebuked Huang Ying.

"What did I do to him? Fine, Wei Ziqi, since you say so, then I'll release his pressure points and send him to his death." Huang Ying said angrily, pointing at Wei Ziqi with her hands on her hips, and was about to release Jin Xuan's pressure points.

"Wait." Just as Huang Ying was about to release Jin Xuan's pressure points, Wei Ziqi spoke up to stop her.

Huang Ying snorted and turned her head away. She didn't really want to untie Jin Xuan's acupoints; she just wanted to play with Wei Ziqi.

"Your Highness, I'm sorry, but it's not advisable for you to move right now. I can only have Miss Huang subdue your pressure points," Wei Ziqi said to Jinxuan.

“Yes! Your Highness, it is not advisable for you to make any rash moves right now, and Ziqi has to take charge of military affairs. So let me handle the matter of rescuing the military advisor!” Zhao Zhiyang immediately volunteered when he saw that the prince was still unwilling to give up.

"Your Highness, this humble general also wishes to rescue the strategist. Even if it's a den of dragons and tigers, this humble general will rescue the strategist safely." General Hong also volunteered to rescue Ao Jun with a resolute expression.

"Your Highness, I will go as well," General Bai volunteered.

"Your Highness, this humble general will also go."

...

Immediately, all the generals in the tent volunteered to Jinxuan to rescue Aojun. Five days earlier, when Ziqi and Miss Huang brought back the severely wounded prince but couldn't find the strategist, they learned from Ziqi that the strategist had been captured by Yelü Ying. Everyone was deeply worried about the strategist, wishing they could immediately infiltrate the Cangliao army camp to rescue him. Hearing that the strategist was also seriously injured, they were even more anxious, fearing the torture Yelü Ying would inflict on him given his frail body (in their eyes). However, the prince was also severely injured and hadn't woken up, causing them great concern and uncertainty. Furthermore, the Cangliao army's sneak attack had destabilized the army, preventing them from leaving. Now that the prince had finally woken up, and with the divine physician Huang Ying present, they could finally rescue the strategist without any worries.

No one knew what had happened between the prince and the strategist. Ziqi said that when he and Huang Ying arrived, they saw Yelü Ying about to stab the prince. Although they blocked Yelü Ying's sword, the strategist was captured by Yelü Ying when they weren't paying attention. As for the evil Blood Soul Heavenly Stem Eight Trigrams Formation, Huang Ying said it had been broken, but she couldn't explain exactly how. All that was left at the scene were broken walls, the corpse of a man in black, and the corpse of Yu'er.

"No one is allowed to go." Jin Xuan's face was pale, and although his words were weak, they sounded so unyielding to the generals. He knew they were doing it for his own good and were worried about the emperor, but he would not knowingly send them to their doom.

"Yes." Although the generals were unwilling, they had no choice but to obey the prince's orders. They could only agree on the surface, but in their hearts they were thinking that even if they had to disobey the prince's orders, they would risk their lives to rescue the strategist. They hadn't apologized to the strategist for how she had treated her before.

"Anyone who dares to act on their own will no longer be considered a general under my command, Ouyang Jinxuan," Jinxuan said coldly. After all this time together, how could their thoughts escape the notice of the dignified Prince Jin?
