The Princess of the Substitute Bride Strikes Back

After Mu Yitian took the pill given by Fu Yunxi, he sat down. At first, he felt relaxed all over, but then the pain came, and no part of his body was spared, and he felt unbearable pain.

He held the handrails tightly with both hands in the bathtub, trying not to show any abnormality on his face, but he was still noticed by Fu Yunxi. She hurriedly opened the lid on one side of the bathtub and took out Mu Yitian's arm. She saw that the whole arm was bulging with veins and blood vessels were clearly visible, making his already extremely thin body look even more terrifying.

Then, an egg-sized bulge slowly moved from the blood vessels around the heart toward the distal end, which was the direction of the wrist. Mu Yitian bit his lips tightly and did not make a sound even though his lips turned white and bled. Mu Yibai really couldn't bear to see him hurt himself like this, so he folded a handkerchief and stuffed it into his mouth. Mu Yibai's facial veins bulged, sweat flowed to his neck, and the corners of his eyes were slightly moist. He didn't know if there were tears mixed in the sweat.

"ignition!"

Fu Yunxi stared at the "egg" that was slowly moving on the blood vessels in Mu Yitian's arm. Holding a sharp scalpel in her hand, she ordered Chen Jianzhong to light the brazier that had been prepared.

"Master's wife is ready."

Chen Jianzhong moved quickly. He was startled by the bulge and felt that Mu Yitian’s blood vessels could be ruptured at any time.

"Ah."

Fu Yunxi stared at the moving bulge intently, thinking in his heart, further away, further away. After he took the pill, the poisonous insects in his body would be expelled, and the distal blood vessels would be cut to facilitate the poisonous insects to leave the body.

It happened in a flash. Just as the swelling was approaching Mu Yitian's arm, Fu Yunxi raised his knife, cut the blood vessels, squeezed out the poisonous insect, and threw it into the brazier.

"Burn it."

As the poisonous insect entered the basin, it made a hissing sound. Chen Jianzhong stared at the insect closely to prevent it from "coming back to life".

"what--"

The moment the poisonous insect left his body, Mu Yitian groaned in pain and fainted completely!

……

“Do you want to change the water?”

Mu Yibai saw Fu Yunxi finish taking Mu Yitian's pulse and asked softly.

"Well! Change the water and soak for a while! At least his pulse has recovered, but the damaged meridians are still fragile and need to be slowly recuperated. However, it is a bit difficult to restore his martial arts. He has to start from scratch. Fist and foot skills are easy to practice, but if he wants to have internal strength again, it depends on his talent."

Fu Yunxi felt a little sorry. Born into a military family, losing all his martial arts skills for more than ten years would be a sad thing for his elder brother and father! After all, internal strength is extremely difficult to master if one does not practice martial arts from childhood.

"Thank you, Madam. So, is Big Brother in good health? Have the poison and the insects in his body been completely eliminated?"

Mu Yibai was ecstatic, his joy at this moment was simply hard to contain. Kung Fu was not important, he would protect his family's safety for life. Moreover, his eldest brother loved poetry more than swords, and literature more than martial arts. There would be nothing wrong in letting him focus on reciting poems and composing couplets in the future.

As for my father, he is already old. If he still wants to learn martial arts, he can practice slowly. If not, it is also good for him to be a leisurely person!

"That's right. Judging from Big Brother's pulse, he is no longer in serious condition. He will need time to recover. This time, it is really thanks to Zi Yan's pills, otherwise we would be in trouble."

My best friend is really reliable. Fu Yunxi thought that she must bring her some delicious food next time they meet.

"You are a noble of the Mu family. Even your friends can help us. Madam, I am so lucky to have you in my life!"

It's not Mu Yibai's fault that he became sentimental after living a new life. He once thought that he was indifferent by nature and was as cautious as a frightened bird in interpersonal relationships.

However, Fu Yunxi healed his wounds and led him towards the light. He was also a mortal, so how could he refuse the warm sunshine?

"Why are you being so sentimental?"

In front of Chen Jianzhong and Huo San, Fu Yunxi was still a little shy and gently pushed Mu Yibai away.

"Let's go and heal our father!"

Fu Yunxi asked Chen Jianzhong to take care of Mu Yitian. The water had been changed and he only needed to soak for another half an hour.

They then went next door to remove the poison and insects from Mu Aiguo.

Mu Aiguo and Mu Yitian's symptoms are extremely similar, so there will surely be no mistakes if they repeat the process.

……

In the evening, Sikong Boyu suddenly vomited blood in his bedroom. The blood mixed with the vermilion floor, and there was still a trace of rust in his throat. He wiped his lips vigorously with his thumb, and there was a fierce look in the corners of his eyes.

"I really underestimated you! Mu Yibai."

These two symbiotic insects were fed by Sikong Boyu using his own blood. They were almost spirits and extremely obedient. But now they were eliminated by Mu Yibai and others. He could no longer control Mu Aiguo and the others.

"Oh, never mind! Anyway, what we need has arrived!"

Sikong Boyu sighed softly and muttered to himself. The maid beside him came forward to serve him tremblingly. Everyone was very cautious, fearing that they would offend the lord of the territory and not even know how they would die.

There have always been rumors that Sikong Boyu fed the Gu with his own body and that he would not live long, but his cruel methods made people feel afraid.

……

"Father, how is your health now?"

The next day, Mu Yibai got up early and went to visit his father and brother.

Today, the complexion of both of them has improved significantly. They no longer look sick, just a little weak. After soaking in the spiritual spring water, their skin color is no longer so dark.

"I have never felt so relaxed. The feeling of relaxation is indescribable."

Mu Aiguo had never expected that he would be cured one day. In the past year, they had been doing all kinds of hard labor while dragging their bodies that seemed to be exhausted at any time. Today seemed like a dream. No, even dreams had never been so beautiful.

"Great! Thanks to Xier, now you should believe that she is proficient in medicine! All the illnesses in our family were diagnosed and treated by Xier."

Mu Yibai's words were full of pride.

"Look at you kid, I never expressed my disbelief in Yun Xi. She looks like she has great medical skills."

Mu Aiguo was very pleased to see that his son and daughter-in-law had a harmonious relationship.

"You have a unique vision. Xier said that you and big brother just need to rest and recuperate. That's great. Not only did you and big brother return safely, but you also recovered. When we return home, grandma and the others will surely be very happy."

Mu Yibai began to look forward to that day.

"I also long to see them soon. It's me who has caused them trouble!"

Mu Aiguo was full of self-blame. In fact, he should have seen the emperor's true face earlier. If he could retire earlier, perhaps he could have retained some dignity.

"Father, this is not our fault, nor is it your responsibility. The Great Zhao Kingdom has suffered a series of natural disasters, and the emperor has already burned himself to death. The new emperor Zhao Hengzhi ascended the throne and issued a general amnesty. Only then could we come out of the northern frontier to look for you and my brother. When we return to Lianjiang County, I believe we will receive the imperial edict that the Mu family's grievances have been redressed."
