Chapter 388 I am thick-skinned and not afraid of pain
"Come on, Xiaodie, try it on and see."
Chu Boyuan put the prepared veil on Huandie's face and still thought she was too beautiful.
She changed the veil into a veil before taking him out into the street.
Chu Boyuan held his hand the whole time, fearing that he would lose him.
Chu Boyuan would buy anything that Huandie took a look at with a wave of his hand.
People passing by looked at them and whispered.
The street vendors kept shouting their wares to attract the attention of the phantom butterfly.
After all, if you don’t want to be greedy for such a good thing, you will be a fool if you don’t take it.
Large and small packages of things were sent to the general's mansion.
The general's wife was furious when she saw the pile of useless things in her house.
He personally stood guard at the door, waiting for this rebellious son to come back.
Chu Boyuan came back from outside, hugging Huandie's waist, talking and laughing, but had not yet entered the house.
A group of servants rushed in and forcibly separated the two.
Chu Boyuan resisted and shouted, "What are you doing? Are you trying to rebel?"
"I told them to do it."
Chu Boyuan looked at the general's wife who walked out of the door aggressively and asked in confusion, "Mom? What are you doing?"
"What should I do? First make this vixen kneel down in front of me!"
"No! He's weak! He can't kneel!"
The two people who held Huandie hostage completely ignored Chu Boyuan's attempts to stop them.
He forcibly took off Huandie's veil and forced him to kneel.
Wang Rui couldn't grasp other people's personalities, but he knew very well what he himself was.
[You want me to kneel? If I don't make you each pay me with a pair of kneecaps, I won't be called Wang.]
The General's wife ordered, "Lift up this vixen's face."
Huandie didn't want anyone to touch him, so he raised his head and looked into the general's wife's eyes.
"You really do have a pretty face. No wonder my son is so bewitched by you that he can't even tell east from west!"
"I volunteered! It has nothing to do with Xiaodie!"
"Shut this rebellious son's mouth!"
“Mmmmmmm!”
Without Chu Baiyuan to cause trouble, the general's wife turned all her attention to Huandie.
Seeing the servants bringing a whip for her, Chu Baiyuan used all his strength to break free from the servants who were restraining him.
He used his body to protect the phantom butterfly.
The whip cracked, making a crisp sound.
But he didn't feel any pain. Huandie looked at the man who was holding him in his arms, and the feeling of his heart pounding came back again.
"Xiaodie, are you okay?"
"No, what about you?"
Chu Boyuan smiled foolishly at him and said, "I'm in good health, nothing's wrong with me."
He retracted his smile and looked at the general's wife, his eyes firm as he said, "If you want to blame someone, blame me. If you want to hit me, hit me. At worst, I'll die here today. That's life for life."
"You really have to protect this vixen today, don't you?"
"Yes, he is my lover. If I can't even protect the person I love, what kind of man am I? What kind of general am I? What can I do to fight on the battlefield? I might as well stay at home and be a useless person!"
[Not bad, she's worthy of my affection, but...]
Huandie's anger towards the general's wife was clearly reflected to Wang Rui.
[Old woman, be careful! I'm going to start plotting against you.]
The general's wife said something harsh and left with her men.
Huandie's body was indeed very weak as Chu Boyuan said. She became unstable after kneeling for a while.
Chu Boyuan ignored the pain in his back and picked up Huandie in front of everyone, clearly declaring his sovereignty to them.
If you want to touch my people, you have to get past me first.
Back in the room, Chu Boyuan gently placed Huandie on the bed, squatted at his feet, and checked the condition of his knee.
He took the medicine from Xiaoqian and applied it to Huandie himself.
His own back was still oozing blood.
"I'm fine, let me check on your injuries first."
"I have thick skin, so I don't need to worry. But you have delicate skin, and it would be bad if you were to get scars."
"I'm really fine."
Chu Boyuan didn't care about all this. He felt that Huandie's injury was the most important thing.
After treating his knee, he turned to take care of the whip wound on his back.
"Xiao Qian, help me."
"Let me do it."
Seeing Huandie take the medicine from Chu Boyuan's hand, Xiaoqian sensibly left and did not forget to close the door.
"You're too tall, I can't reach you." Huandie patted her thigh, motioning the other person to lie down on her.
Anyone who doesn't take advantage of an opportunity is a fool. Chu Boyuan hugged his waist and rested his head on his thighs.
Lie down and wait for the other party to apply medicine.
The fragrance of the other person's body comes before the pain of applying the medicine.
"Hehe~ I'd be willing to be beaten every day just to be treated so gently by Xiaodie."
"Have you been hit in the head? What nonsense are you talking about?"
"To be honest, I know you don't like me, and you're only being close to me for a purpose. But I don't care. Feel free to use me. I'm happy to do so."
"Why? Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?"
"Death is death, no matter where. When I learned I would inherit my father's position as general, I never thought I could survive."
"Are you ready to sacrifice your life for your country at any time?"
"Am I crazy? Are you rushing to be the emperor's running dog? He just sits in the palace and gives out orders, and the country is ours. And what about us? We're on the battlefield, making countless enemies, and even our meals depend on the grain transport officer. Only a fool like my father would be willing to sincerely serve this bastard emperor. It sounds nice to call him 'beloved minister', but I'm a fool!"
Huandie listened to his words, seemed to be thinking about something, and said nothing more.
That night, Huandie was awakened by Chu Boyuan's body temperature.
I got out of bed and asked Xiaoqian, who was waiting outside the door, for fever-reducing medicine.
Xiaoqian suggested going to call a doctor. Huandie thought for a moment and called back Xiaoqian who had already run away.
"You stay, I'll go."
Under Xiaoqian's nose, Huandie changed into night clothes and easily jumped over the wall.
Huandie didn't trust her, but was testing her.
Arriving at a closed drugstore, Huandie raised his hand and knocked twice, then once, and three times.
The door opened and the person who came in was a one-eyed old man with a crutch.
"You came."
"Where's my medicine? Is it ready?"
The old man limped to the counter, opened a secret compartment, took out a wooden box wrapped in black cloth, placed it on the table, and said, "The poison you asked for is all here."
Huandie took out a bottle of poison, opened the lid and drank it.
“It’s still so bitter.”
"Do you want me to put some honey in it next time?"
"No need to bother with this. You won't live long anyway."
"What have you done to your body again?"
"Did not do anything."
The old man grabbed Huandie's wrist, and a centipede with eyeballs on its head crawled out of his empty eye sockets.
The centipede burrowed into the butterfly's body. The old man saw its current state and exclaimed, "Are you crazy? Insect eggs! Insect eggs everywhere! Aren't you afraid your frail body will be sucked dry?"
"Didn't I tell you I won't live long?"
"Stop it! While the eggs haven't hatched yet, at least we can preserve the last of our Wu Gu clan's incense."
"Stop? Then hide your identity like you did and become a medicine seller here?"
Huandie shook off the old man's hand and laughed heartily, "Yes, after all, you didn't see it with your own eyes. The rain of flaming arrows pierced the darkness, the burning village, and the wailing everywhere. The child who had made an appointment with me yesterday, in the blink of an eye, was reduced to a charred arm."
"Everyone is dead except me."
