Gu Qingluan smiled calmly. “I haven’t seen Consort Yun’s injuries, so I can’t guarantee that I can definitely heal her, but I can assure you that she’ll live until you’re out.”
Xiao Jingye coldly snorted, “You haven’t even seen her, what assurance do you have? Woman, don’t make empty promises!”
“You can only trust me for now. Do you have any other choice?”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jingye was almost infuriated.
“You better deliver on your words. If I find out my mother is dead when I return, I’ll make sure you pay!”
Gu Qingluan paid little heed to Xiao Jingye’s threats.
She couldn’t guarantee everything else, but she had confidence in her medical skills.
Suddenly, there were hurried footsteps behind them.
Gu Qingluan turned around and saw Qi Tianyou rushing over.
“How’s it going? Did Young Master Yun provide any instructions?”
“He doesn’t know much either. To capture Yin Qing, we’ll have to find a way to draw him out. Yin Qing has strong support, and there are others with similar strengths. Leave this to us; you don’t have to be part of it.”
Qi Tianyou was taken aback.
Yin Qing was a Saint, and his associates weren’t any weaker. Did that mean there were more Saints involved?
“Do you not need assistance from others?”
These weren’t ordinary foes; they were Saints!
“Having too many people can lead to chaos. Leave it to us.”
Since Gu Qingluan put it that way, Qi Tianyou had to agree.
In a conflict between Saints, others couldn’t easily intervene.
However, he decided to inform his Second Imperial Uncle when he returned.
Second Imperial Uncle wasn’t interested in most matters, but perhaps he would be interested in the appearance of so many Saints in the Heavenly Capital City?
Meanwhile, Xiao Jingye saw Qi Tianyou and immediately requested to be released.
As expected, Qi Tianyou didn’t agree to his unreasonable request.
Xiao Jingye then asked him to gather information from the Yun Palace and to urge the envoys from the Kingdom of Dingyang.
Qi Tianyou didn’t understand why he was suddenly so anxious, but he agreed casually.
Gu Qingluan was about to go and rescue Consort Yun, so she didn’t want to delay any further.
She and Feng Tianlan left the prison.
At this moment, the night was deep, and a crescent moon emitted faint light in the sky.
For two individuals with deep cultivation, this level of darkness was not a challenge.
Gu Qingluan curiously asked Feng Tianlan, “How did you know about Consort Yun’s severe injury?”
“Yesterday evening, I returned to take care of some business, and Jing Feng had found out about the news through the documents he organized. Consort Yun sustained severe injuries, and not even the famous doctors from Dingyang Kingdom could provide a remedy. Prince Yun offered a substantial reward for medical assistance, and this information also circulated within the black market.”
Gu Qingluan’s eyes brightened. “I see! A reward in the black market makes things much more convenient.”
She had just been thinking about how to quickly reach Consort Yun.
Now that she knew she could contact them through the black market, it would be much easier to rescue Consort Yun.
Feng Tianlan glanced at her, and a hint of concern flashed in his dark eyes. “You don’t have to rush over to rescue her right now. You’ve been running around for days. You should take a good rest.”
Gu Qingluan looked at the sky and realized he was right.
Since she was summoned into the imperial palace by the Emperor yesterday, one problem after another had arisen. It had been two days and two nights without proper rest. She had been mentally on edge, and she hadn’t noticed it until Feng Tianlan pointed it out. Now, she felt a wave of exhaustion washing over her.
“Shall we part ways here then?”
Feng Tianlan raised an eyebrow. “Are you trying to get rid of me?”
He thought she had already accepted their relationship.
Gu Qingluan was speechless. “You have your own place to stay. Do you intend to stay at my home? Given our relationship, it’s not appropriate for you to live in the Jun Residence.”
Feng Tianlan immediately countered, “What’s so inappropriate about it?”
