Zhangsun Lingyun carried the child and placed him on the bed. He first checked the child's breathing and then took his pulse. Then, he took out silver needles and inserted them into his philtrum, chest, hands, and feet. Then, he stretched out a finger and gently pressed it against the top of his head.
In an instant, she heard the child wail loudly.”
Hearing the child cry, the woman couldn't help but cry tears of joy. She knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing." Thank you, Miss Sun, for saving my life. Thank you, Miss Sun, for saving my life!”
Zhangsun Lingyun hurriedly helped her up." Sister-in-law, please don't do this. You're killing me!"”
The woman shook her head and said," It's only right. Not only did Miss Sun save my family, but she also saved my son twice. How can I repay your kindness?”
Zhangsun Lingyun smiled." It's fate that we met each other. What's there to repay?" Oh right, my surname isn't Sun. My surname is Zhangsun. You can just call me Ling Yun.”
The woman nodded and hugged the child. She said lovingly,"I have a request. I wonder if Young Lady can agree?”
"Tell me!"
"I wonder if this child has the fortune to recognize a lady as his mother?”
Zhangsun Lingyun's entire body trembled, and he was almost speechless." You…You mean…"
The woman pointed at her husband, who was standing up weakly, and said,"My name is Gongsun Yu, and this is my husband, Yun Fei. If it wasn't for you, how could we have survived? If there was no girl, this child would not be born and would probably die in the womb. Moreover, the lady had just saved this child's life, so this child was equivalent to the lady's. But I wonder if Miss is willing to acknowledge this child and be her mother?”
Zhangsun Lingyun's eyes could not help but tear up as he took the child with trembling hands." I…I'll be her mother? I…I can be her mother?"
"Yes, if you don't mind, she'll be your daughter!”
Zhangsun Lingyun pulled the child into his arms and used his face to gently caress the child's pink cheeks. Tears rolled down one by one." Daughter, I have a daughter, I finally have a daughter, I…"
Chu Shengyi, who was behind her, reached out and hugged her and the child. He said gently,""Yun 'er, don't cry. This is a joyous occasion, how can you cry?”
She turned around and looked at him with tears in her eyes." But I…I…"
Chu Shengyi looked at her tear-stained face and the crying child with heartache. He turned around and asked Gongsun Yu,""You haven't named the child yet, right?"
Gongsun Yu nodded." Please give me a name."”
"Yun 'er, give the child a name. We can't just let her cry without a name, can we?" Chu Shengyi said.”
Zhangsun Lingyun wiped his tears and nodded. He looked at the child's beautiful and childish face and said,""Fengyi, her name is Yun Fengyi. When she grows up in the future, she will change her name to Chu Fengyi.”
Gongsun Yu and Yun Fei nodded, and even Chu Shengyi couldn't help but smile.
He looked at Zhangsun Lingyun full of hope and love. He watched her tease Xiao Fengyi and saw her reveal that dazzling and beautiful smile. An unprecedented thought formed in his heart.
Perhaps…this was a method. Although it was a little crazy, as long as it could make her happy, why not?
Chu Shengyi thought about it and was about to speak when he suddenly felt a heat in his chest. In an instant, a warm current rushed to his throat. He hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand, but he could not stop the blood from spurting out.”
Zhangsun Lingyun's soul instantly flew out of his body." Brother Sheng, Brother Sheng!”
Chu Shengyi shook his head. He wanted to tell her that he was fine and that she did not need to worry, but he could not say a word.
He looked at Zhangsun Lingyun longingly and his body slowly leaned back. Zhangsun Lingyun's mournful cry sounded in his ears…
a year later
On this day, a carriage was speeding along the yellow soil. The driver was a beautiful woman in her early twenties, dressed in red. Beside the woman sat a young man who was also in his twenties. He was handsome and unrestrained. Although his face was a little pale, it could not hide the heroic and determined aura between his brows.
Needless to say, they were Zhangsun Lingyun and Chu Shengyi.
Due to Chu Shengyi's serious internal injuries, even though Zhangsun Lingyun had treated him, it was still inconvenient for him to go out. It was also difficult for Chu Shengyi to recuperate. Therefore, Zhangsun Lingyun resolutely brought Chu Shengyi back to the Phoenix Palace. On one hand, he wanted to rest and recuperate. On the other hand, he asked his mother to officiate their marriage and complete their marriage.
And on this day, Zhangsun Lingyun and Chu Shengyi were driving out to attend the appointment with Gongsun Yu and his wife, because it was Yun Fengyi's first birthday!
Thinking that he would be able to see the sweet and lovely Little Feng Yi very soon, Zhangsun Lingyun couldn't help but get excited." Brother Sheng, how old do you think Little Feng has grown now? Would they recognize us? Do you think she'll like the gifts we brought?”
In order to prepare a gift for Xiao Fengyi, Zhangsun Lingyun had almost turned the entire Feng Palace upside down. He had brought out all sorts of things, including all sorts of strange and strange things that he had never seen before. He was going to bring them all to Xiao Fengyi. Therefore, the carriage was now filled with gifts. Chu Shengyi had no place to sit, so he could only squeeze in front with Zhangsun Lingyun to enjoy the scenery.
"I like it, of course I like it. Fengyi is at the age where she likes everything. But are you sure these things are not poisonous?”
"Of course there's no poison. I've checked every one of them carefully. I've even kept all the medicine bottles and pills I had hidden on me as you said. I don't want Feng 'er to accidentally touch them and cause her to be poisoned.”
"Aren't you afraid that I'll be poisoned?" Chu Shengyi glared at her angrily.
It turned out that the so-called keeping was referring to taking the pills from Zhangsun Lingyun to Chu Shengyi. Because Zhangsun Lingyun was a strange person, the pills she made were naturally strange. If an ordinary person touched it, they would immediately be poisoned and fall to the ground. Therefore, Chu Shengyi wanted her to keep the pills. He didn't expect that the little girl had kept all the pills but kept them on him.
Zhangsun Lingyun smiled slyly." Don't worry, nothing will happen! You're the person I like the most. How could I let you be poisoned? Besides, we still have eight children to find. How can I poison you and cause you to die? Who will help me take care of the nine little turnips then?”
"What eight children? Yun 'er, what nonsense are you spouting? We only have one child now, Feng Yi. How can we have eight more?”
Zhangsun Lingyun smiled slyly again." Brother Sheng, don't lie to me anymore! I already know that you have acknowledged the Tenth Prince of Wei as your son, right?”
Chu Shengyi smiled faintly." Oh? What else do you know?"
"I also know that you plan to name the Tenth Prince Chu Nanfeng, right?”
Chu Shengyi pulled the reins and lowered his head to approach Zhangsun Lingyun." You read my letter?"”
Zhangsun Lingyun shook his head repeatedly and hurriedly denied it." I didn't. That letter floated in front of me by itself and I accidentally saw it. That's why I was reading it openly, not peeking!”
Chu Shengyi wrapped his arms around her, his hot lips less than an inch away from her." Then tell me, what else did you see 'openly'?”
"I also saw the name Chu Yunxuan. Brother Sheng, is that our third child?”
He covered her lips and kissed and sucked gently." Yes, Yun Xuan is our third child. I plan to bring Yun Xuan back while I'm going to visit Feng 'er, so my little angel, you'll have a lot of work to do!”
Zhangsun Lingyun wriggled in his arms like a caterpillar." What about the others? Where are the other treasures?"
Chu Shengyi pretended to be mysterious." You'll know after a while.”
Zhangsun Lingyun pouted." Petty. What's the big deal about saying it now?”
"No, some things can only be said when the time is up. Moreover, your little thing is full of wicked ideas. I'm worried that if you know too early, it will ruin my plan. Anyway, just you wait. One day, I will fill the entire Phoenix Palace with the laughter of children. Mm, don't talk now, let's find a place to rest…"
Chu Shengyi looked around as if he wanted to find a place to rest and make out. Suddenly, his gaze landed on a sand dune not far away." It's him?”
Zhangsun Lingyun was stunned. He followed his gaze and saw a figure that he hadn't seen for many years." Xia Jisheng, why is it him?”
The person who came was Xia Jisheng.
Xia Jisheng, dressed in black, slowly walked towards them." Long time no see, Shengyi, Ling Yun.”
Chu Shengyi's expression was complicated." Why are you here? How did you know that I would pass by here?”
Xia Jisheng brought the edict to Chu Shengyi with both hands." I am here on His Majesty's orders to deliver the edict.”
"Seventh brother? Why did Seventh Brother give me the imperial edict?" Although he was suspicious, Chu Shengyi still took the edict.
He opened it and could not help but laugh.
Zhangsun Lingyun couldn't hold it in anymore and hurriedly poked his head forward." Brother Sheng, what's so funny written on it?”
Chu Shengyi shook his head." No, Seventh Brother only congratulated us on our marriage. But to congratulate us on our marriage, he gave me a title, a title that matches you.”
"What title?"
"Xuanwu Emperor."
"Xuanwu Emperor? The Black Tortoise Emperor and the Vermillion Bird Maiden?" Zhangsun Lingyun couldn't help but giggle." Brother Sheng, your Seventh Brother is so smart. To think that he could think of this.”
"That's right. It can highlight my past as an emperor, but it can also express the fact that I'm now a commoner. That's why I gave up my position to him! But…" Chu Shengyi looked at Xia Jisheng." Why did he ask you to deliver this edict?"”
"I was willing because I wanted to see you. I really, really wanted to see you!”Xia Jisheng looked deeply at Chu Shengyi.
When Zhangsun Lingyun heard this, he jumped up angrily and blocked the two of them." Stinky Xia Jisheng, Brother Sheng has already told me about your past with him. Brother Sheng also said that he only treats you as a friend and a brother. Other than that, there's no other possibility. So don't think of any tricks to get close to Brother Sheng, and don't even think of harming others! If you dare to harm others again, I'll poison you to death immediately!”
Xia Jisheng forced a smile." Don't worry. Even if I have that intention, he won't give me a chance.”
Zhangsun Lingyun's face was filled with suspicion." What do you mean by that? Brother Sheng won't give you a chance? Hey, tell me clearly, or I'll poison you!”
Chu Shengyi laughed at Zhangsun Lingyun's bluff. Poison? Don't forget, she had all those strange medicines on her. How could she poison her? However, seeing her like this, Chu Shengyi felt a sense of relief for some reason. This was his Yun 'er!
Xia Jisheng shook his head with a bitter smile." Back then, I gave the medicine to Murong Zhi, but it caused you to lose your child and the chance to have children. From then on, Shengyi no longer treated me as a friend. He didn't even let me treat his injuries, so I could only watch as his injuries worsened day by day.”
Zhangsun Lingyun suddenly came to a realization. She had never understood why Chu Shengyi would have new injuries when she had already cured his internal injuries. It turned out that when he left that year, Chu Shengyi blamed everything on Xia Jisheng. He was also unwilling to receive treatment, causing his injuries to worsen. And he was running around looking for her. No wonder he was covered in injuries when she saw him again.
Zhangsun Lingyun turned to look at Chu Shengyi." Brother Sheng, how can you joke about yourself like this?" Do you know that if I had met you a year later, you might have already…"
Chu Shengyi pursed his lips." Of course I know. But without you, what's the point of living alone?”
Zhangsun Lingyun had already heard him say this many times. Every time she heard it, she couldn't help but tear up. Now that she knew the cause and effect, she instantly burst into tears.
"Brother Sheng, you're so silly, you're really so silly.”She threw herself into Chu Shengyi's arms and hugged him.
Chu Shengyi hugged her." I'm not stupid. Compared to you, everything I've done is nothing!"”He raised his head and looked at Xia Jisheng." Jisheng, you're not here just to deliver the imperial edict, are you?”
Xia Jisheng nodded. He took out a piece of paper and handed it to Chu Shengyi." I didn't have a prescription when I made that medicine back then. I tried my best to think of this after that. There might be a few missing ingredients, but with Ling Yun's skills, he should be able to find the flaws very quickly. I know this can't make up for even a ten-thousandth of what I've done, but it's more or less a token of my appreciation. I hope you can accept it.”
Chu Shengyi took it." Thank you.”
" No need to thank me," Xia Jisheng said dejectedly." If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have wasted five years of your time." Right, I have already accepted Valley Master You You's invitation and plan to settle down there. This might be the last time we meet.”
Chu Shengyi was stunned." Jisheng…"
Xia Jisheng smiled bitterly and nodded at Chu Shengyi before turning to leave." I met Xuanyuan Ting on my way here. He said that Murong Zhi had given birth to a son for him a month ago. He named him Xuanyuan Rui.”
Xuanyuan Rui? 'Sounds like a good name,' Chu Shengyi thought to himself. However, Chu Shengyi did not know that Murong Zhi had always been deeply attached to him. As a result, her son Xuanyuan Rui's love life was full of ups and downs, and even almost caused Chu Shengyi's youngest daughter, Chu Huanyi, to lose her life.
Chu Shengyi looked at Xia Jisheng's receding figure as he calculated silently. Suddenly, he called out to Xia Jisheng,
"Jisheng, wait."
Xia Jisheng stiffened slightly and stopped in his tracks.
"My eldest daughter is called Chu Fengyi. I wonder if you are willing to take her as your disciple?”
Not only was Xia Jisheng shocked, even Zhangsun Lingyun was shocked.
"Brother Sheng, do you know what you're saying?" Zhangsun Lingyun shouted.”
Chu Shengyi smiled and shook Zhangsun Lingyun's hand. He continued,""I heard that Youyou Valley is a place with few people. If you go there, it will be a pity for your medical skills. Why don't you pass on your medical skills to my Feng 'er so that she can help you fulfill your dream of saving the world?”
Xia Jisheng turned around abruptly." Shengyi, you…are you serious?”
"Of course. When has Chu Shengyi ever lied?”
"You don't blame me?"
Chu Shengyi shook his head." If I still blamed you, I wouldn't have met you. Besides, we're friends, brothers who grew up together, aren't we?”
Xia Jisheng was so excited that his body trembled slightly. He looked at Zhangsun Lingyun." Ling Yun, what about you? Are you willing? Are you willing to forgive me?"
Zhangsun Lingyun pouted, her face full of displeasure. But when she saw Chu Shengyi's smiling face, all her dissatisfaction and resentment disappeared. She thought of the loneliness and loneliness she had experienced in the past few days, and the feeling that made her almost go crazy every time…Fortunately, she had everything now, a husband, and children. On the other hand, Xia Jisheng was alone, heading to the secluded valley.
Thinking of this, she nodded slowly." You and I learned from different sources, but we both learned how to save the world. Perhaps if Feng 'er takes you as her master, she can learn the strengths of both families and achieve the ideal of a doctor helping the world.”
A sincere smile appeared on Xia Jisheng's face. He bowed to Zhangsun Lingyun and Chu Shengyi, then slowly stepped into the yellow sand and disappeared.
As soon as Xia Jisheng left, Chu Shengyi immediately turned around and hugged Zhangsun Lingyun." Yun 'er, you're amazing."”
Zhangsun Lingyun hugged him happily, smelling him like a puppy. He said proudly,"Of course, how can the wife of the Emperor of the Black Tortoise be so petty? Naturally, the lord would forgive him! But…"
"But what?"
"If he dares to bully Feng 'er, I'll poison him to death! Brother Sheng, you won't blame me when the time comes, right?”
"No, if he dares to bully Feng 'er, we'll settle the score with him together. How about that?”
Zhangsun Lingyun nodded his head vigorously." Alright, alright, alright. If he dares to bully Feng 'er, we'll beat him into a meat patty and dry him into jerky for Xiao Mao to eat!”
The so-called Xiao Mao was an eagle raised by Zhangsun Lingyun to teach bad guys a lesson.
The two of them returned to the carriage hand in hand. Just as they were about to drive away, Chu Shengyi suddenly thought of something.
"Yun 'er, have I ever told you that you look like a person?”
Zhangsun Lingyun smiled and shook his head." No, but I know who you're talking about!”
Chu Shengyi was curious." Who?”
"The first generation Vermillion Bird Maiden."
"The first generation Vermillion Bird Maiden?"
"That's right! Tell me first, where did you see her?”
"In a cave. When I was out hunting, I happened to enter a cave in order to chase a hare. In that cave, I saw a woman standing facing the wall. At that time, I thought she was alive and was afraid of offending the beauty, so I hurriedly took a look and left. "Later, when I saw you, I thought you looked like her, but when I calculated your age, I didn't think so. I thought she was your mother. I didn't expect her to be the first generation Vermillion Bird Maiden.”
Zhangsun Lingyun nodded." You're not the only one who said that I look like her. Even Mother said that I look like her. I went to see her myself and felt that I looked a little similar to her. However, I'm alive, and she's long dead.”
"Have you seen it? Have you been to that cave?"
"No, but in the secret chamber of the Phoenix Palace, there is a statue of her! When we're done with our business, we'll pay our respects to her together, okay?”
"But…why would her statue appear in that cave?”
"I don't know. I heard from my mother that the Vermillion Bird Maiden had a lover, but for some reason, they broke up. The Vermillion Bird Maiden's lover was good at carving, so she put the statue her lover carved for her in the Phoenix Palace. As for the one you're looking at, it's probably another statue! However, we should thank the Heavenly Maiden!”
"Goddess Xie? Why?"
"Because mother said that those who are fated to see the statue must also be fated to be with the Phoenix Palace and will definitely be protected by the holy daughter. If a couple saw the statue, they would definitely grow old together.”
Chu Shengyi smiled faintly." Is that so? Then, when our children get married, let them make an oath to the holy daughter so that they will be united forever and support each other until they are old. How about that?”
Zhangsun Lingyun's eyes lit up." Alright, we'll ask each of them to swear to the Goddess that they'll be honest with each other like us, love each other, and grow old together.”
At this moment, Chu Shengyi's gaze fell on a letter in Zhangsun Lingyun's arms." Since you want to be honest with me, Yun 'er, can you tell me the name of the girl you secretly acknowledged?"”
Zhangsun Lingyun was shocked and quickly denied it." No, no, I didn't acknowledge any girl…"
"You still say you don't have it? I clearly saw you smiling foolishly at the letter, yet you still deny it? Take it out!"
Seeing that he couldn't hide it anymore, Zhangsun Lingyun could only obediently hand over the letter.
Chu Shengyi took the letter and looked at it with a smile." Chu Xiayi? He even had a name? You messed up my plans like this, making me not know what rank Xia Yi should be.”
Zhangsun Lingyun stuck out his tongue and hurriedly drove the carriage. He tried to change the subject." It's almost dark. We have to rush to Feng 'er's house before it gets dark so that Feng' er's parents won't worry about us. Let's go!"”
Chu Shengyi grabbed the reins and drove the carriage into the woods." Don't worry, I told them we would be late." Now tell me, how many did you acknowledge behind my back?”
Zhangsun Lingyun stretched out two fingers guiltily.
Chu Shengyi furrowed his eyebrows." Two?”
She shook her head gently, not daring to use too much force.
Chu Shengyi's eyes widened." Twenty?”
"Yes! I think…the more children there are, the livelier it will be…"
Chu Shengyi hugged her and fell into the carriage." No, twenty is too many. It will tire me out."”
"But they're all very pitiful. They don't have parents. Brother Sheng, you can't be so cruel.”
"If you say you can't, then you can't. Moreover, if you want to enter the Feng Palace, you have to go through Mother's barrier. If you're worried, I'll arrange a place for them to go some other day, okay?”
Zhangsun Lingyun pouted unwillingly.
Chu Shengyi turned around and pressed her down, his hands on her sides." Don't worry, let's work hard and see if we can have a boy and a girl, okay?"”
Zhangsun Lingyun was very interested in having children. She hugged Chu Shengyi and asked,""If it's a man, what should I call him?"
Chu Shengyi thought for a moment." I'll call you…Chu Yunzhang."”
"What about the woman?"
"Call her Chu Ruoyi. Let her be as strange as you, okay?”
"What if there's more than one girl? Then what should I call it?"
Chu Shengyi smiled." You'll know when the time comes." Tell me, are you done?"
Zhangsun Lingyun nodded desperately." Alright, alright, it's already done. But Brother Sheng, I still have a question!”
"What is it?"
"When are we going to start traveling around the martial world to look for medicinal herbs? I think we should get better first.”
"After we finish what we have to do now, we'll travel the world.”
"When are we coming back?”
Chu Shengyi smiled." We'll go home when we want to!”#
