Abandoned Woman Busy Farming-Chapter 2464 - 2465: Really Not Dead

Xinye pointed towards Jiang Yichun, who had lost to Bai Ruozhu, thinking that such a woman would not marry an ordinary man, right? He wanted to see how powerful Jiang Yichun was, or how much stronger Jiang Yichun was compared to him...

Xinye didn’t even realize his hostility towards Jiang Yichun, or the male desire for comparison.

Tang Feng’s mouth twitched, feeling blatantly ignored. Well, even if he fought Jiang Yichun, achieving the goal would suffice.

"Alright, I’ll let you use one hand," Jiang Yichun slightly raised his chin, with a tone of provocation.

Xinye took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, "No need!"

"Otherwise, there’s no fun in fighting. Winning would also be boring," Jiang Yichun continued with shockingly provocative words.

"You... don’t look down on people too much," Xinye gritted his teeth and squeezed out these words.

Jiang Yichun instead laughed, "I’m just speaking the truth. My wife is already not my opponent, and since you’re her defeated opponent, if I don’t go easy on you, how can we fight? If you don’t want to, then spar with Tang Feng."

At the side, Tang Feng pouted, wondering if he was caught in the crossfire. Speaking of which, isn’t Jiang Yichun afraid that Ruozhu would hear the sentence "My wife is already not my opponent" he just uttered?

"No need, I’ll just fight with you!" Xinye was quite angry, eager to teach Jiang Yichun a lesson.

Soon, the two of them went to the backyard to face off, and Tang Feng followed to watch the commotion, while Sa Tian finally had the chance to speak with Bai Ruozhu.

"Lord Bai, you all should be more cautious; I’m afraid the General is not pleased." Sa Tian spoke tactfully.

Bai Ruozhu nodded, "I had guessed it. He sent you to keep an eye on our situation, having you report to him every now and then?"

Sa Tian’s expression changed, surprisingly asking, "How did you know?"

Bai Ruozhu laughed, "Sa Tian, you grew up in the temple, with a simple mind. I know you don’t want to betray us; otherwise, you wouldn’t be so troubled."

"Please forgive me, Bai Ruozhu. You saved the abbot and helped Zhaoti Temple; I really shouldn’t have done this." Sa Tian showed a look of guilt.

"It’s alright, report to him from time to time. Otherwise, if you don’t come, someone else will, and it would be more troublesome if they intentionally cause havoc. Both you and Xinye are upright people, which is a relief for me," Bai Ruozhu said.

Sa Tian was momentarily stunned, then smiled wryly, "Only Lord Bai is so magnanimous; others would have already detested us."

"Alright, don’t worry. I’ll remind you of what can be said and what can’t be said," Bai Ruozhu said after a pause, "But your future situation might be difficult. Why not find a way to stay with us?"

"Can I?" Sa Tian was a little surprised; he didn’t expect Lord Bai to consider him one of their own.

"Of course you can. If you want to come to Zhongyuan with us, that’s also fine," Bai Ruozhu said with a smile, recognizing Sa Tian as one of their own, especially after he burned his arm to deliver messages.

"I..." Sa Tian thought of his brother, whom he still needed to find, hesitating slightly. Bai Ruozhu guessed his thoughts and changed the topic, knowing they would stay in Fusang for a while longer, allowing Sa Tian time to think it over.

Two days passed like this, and Bai Ruozhu had Jiang Yichun and Tang Feng carry the second prince out of the medicine barrel, dressing him in carefully inspected clean clothes.

She was supposed to avoid being present, but Gao Deng stayed in the room as a supervisor, directing Jiang Yichun and Tang Feng to work. Tang Feng felt very disgruntled, muttering a few words, to which Gao Deng glared and said, "Don’t you know to respect the old and cherish the young?"

Tang Feng’s mouth twitched, "Do you look old?"

Gao Deng was momentarily speechless and then said, "I am an elder, don’t be so disrespectful."

Outside, the Emperor arrived hurriedly, both worried and excited, nervously asking, "How’s it? Is Cilang about to wake up?"

"It should be very soon. Your Majesty can sit inside the room for now," Bai Ruozhu said.

The Emperor entered the room, and Tang Feng and Gao Zhou had to stop their bickering. Seeing the second prince being put back on the bed with what seemed like a hint of blood color on his face, the Emperor grew instantly emotional.

He stared unblinkingly at the second prince. When Bai Ruozhu entered and saw his eyes as wide as saucers, she found it both amusing and a little sad.

She asked Yizi to bring some tea, and after the Emperor drank a cup, the eyelids of the second prince on the bed finally began to move slightly.

"Cilang, Cilang, have you woken up?" The Emperor rushed to the bedside, completely shedding his usual calmness, trying to grab the second prince’s hand in excitement.

"Don’t touch him!" Bai Ruozhu called out, startling the Emperor, who quickly withdrew his hand.

"He’s still very fragile now; it’s best not to touch him directly," Bai Ruozhu explained.

The Emperor promptly retracted his hand obediently, staring eagerly at the second prince’s face. Eventually, the second prince slowly opened his eyes, but they were unfocused, as if he couldn’t see anything.

"What’s wrong with his eyes?" the Emperor hurriedly asked. "Can’t he see us?"

"Only a small part of the poison has been cleared, so his vision hasn’t recovered yet. In a few days, he will slowly start seeing again," Bai Ruozhu said.

She then leaned close to the second prince, speaking loudly into his ear, "Second Prince, we’re helping you detoxify. You’ll get better. If you can hear me, close your eyes."

After Bai Ruozhu finished speaking, the Emperor tensely watched the second prince, waiting for his reaction. It took a while, but the second prince slowly closed his eyes. His movements were very slow, almost like a slow-motion play, presumably due to the poisoning, as he had been a living dead. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"His hearing is also impacted; you need to speak loudly and close, and say things slowly," Bai Ruozhu reminded.

The Emperor quickly leaned closer, imitating Bai Ruozhu’s manner, speaking slowly, "Cilang, can you hear your father speaking?"

This time, the second prince again slowly closed his eyes, prompting the Emperor to say joyfully, "Rest assured, your mother and everyone else are well, and you will be too."

Bai Ruozhu frowned slightly. With the Emperor asking such irrelevant questions, the second prince’s waking time was limited and couldn’t be wasted like this.

"Your Majesty, his body is still very weak. After waking for about 15 minutes, he might fall asleep again," Bai Ruozhu reminded, "But he will get a little better each day."

"That’s good, that’s good," the Emperor said happily. His son hadn’t died, he really hadn’t!

Bai Ruozhu leaned close to the second prince’s ear, "I’ll ask you a question. If you want to say yes, close your eyes. If no, move your eyeballs side to side."

The second prince slowly closed his eyes, evidently understanding.

"Do you know who poisoned you?" Bai Ruozhu asked.
