Pathological Trapping - Chap 111
Mu Jian’s voice was hoarse and trembling because of the pain.
”Poke it.”
Li Dezhuang’s hands were shaking because he had survived a disaster.
Mu Jian thought he was just afraid, and covered Li Dezhuang’s eyes with his free hand. His voice was surprisingly gentle and reassuring at this moment.
”Don’t be afraid, use force!”
Chapter 86: As long as Master Li is alive, the Ninth Prince cannot inherit the throne
Li Dezhuang gritted his teeth and stabbed the dagger behind him with all his strength, then slashed it hard. The sticky and hot blood poured down like rain, soaking both of them and turning them into bloody men.
Everyone around was stunned by the scene.
Mu Jian pulled his arm back with difficulty. His arm, pierced by the sharp teeth, was dripping with sticky blood. It was shocking. Li Dezhuang felt pain just looking at it. His heart was also in pain.
Mu Jian smiled at him, raised his hand to wipe the blood off his face, and found that his hands were also covered with blood. It was not much better, so he just wiped his face randomly and smiled.
”The old emperor shouldn’t have been allowed to do evil. He must have been scared.”
Li Dezhuang nodded woodenly.
At this time, the Royal Guards arrived and supported them both.
Li Dezhuang saw that the old emperor on the high platform had rushed to the railing, and the anger on his face could not be hidden.
Mu Jian followed his gaze and said with a smile, “Father was afraid of you, so he took my Jiangshan Gu away. But he didn’t know that if I could use Jiangshan Gu to poison you, I wouldn’t even want you to speak.”
Mu Jian smiled and weakly squeezed his hand hanging by his side, his eyes full of obsession and attachment.
”I almost thought I couldn’t save you.”
Li Dezhuang’s heart skipped a beat.
It was obviously very noisy around them, and there were many people around the two of them, but Mu Jian’s eyes seemed to only see him.
She smiled at him, and her eyes, filled with his smile, were pure and obsessed.
It was as if he would always be loved and cherished by this person, and that this person would always risk his own life to save him.
Maybe it’s because the sun is too strong.
Maybe the tiger was too ferocious and he was still frightened.
Or maybe Mu Jian was just too well behaved at this moment.
His gaze made Li Dezhuang feel at a loss and his heart beat wildly.
The imperial guards sent the two men to the back hall, and the imperial physician came breathlessly with a medicine box to bandage their wounds.
Li Dezhuang just fell to the ground and had some broken skin, but Mu Jian’s injuries were much more serious.
The two people bandaged themselves behind a screen.
Li Dezhuang always went to see Mu Jian and was pushed back into his chair by the imperial physician several times.
Finally, the imperial physician sighed, “Since Master Li is so worried about Your Highness, why not just go in directly?”
Li Dezhuang’s ears suddenly turned red.
Before I could retort, I heard a chuckle from behind the screen.
Li Dezhuang wanted to find a hole to crawl into right now! Right now! Immediately!
”Then let him in.”
Li Dezhuang was embarrassed, but then he thought to himself that he was not a girl and there was nothing to be shy about.
Anyway, his worry was real, and it was also real that Mu Jian was injured for him, so he just strode in.
Mu Jian leaned back in his chair, smiling.
”Just tell me if you’re worried about me. I like it when you worry about me. It makes me happy.”
The straightforward and explicit love words made the white-bearded imperial physician blush upon hearing them.
Li Dezhuang was used to it. He sat down next to Mu Jian, but looked at the imperial physician.
”How is the injury? Your Highness looks very bad.”
The doctor replied: “The wound is very deep and it will take a long time to recover. If you don’t take good care of it, this hand may…”
Li Dezhuang didn’t want to listen any further and interrupted, “Okay, got it.” The imperial physician didn’t say anything extra.
What happened in the martial arts arena has long been spread all over the place. At this moment, I am afraid that everyone knows that the Ninth Prince regards this person as his life. He would rather give up his own life to protect this person.
The imperial physician knew that it was not suitable for him to stay here, so he slowly retreated.
As soon as the person left, Mu Jian’s hands became restless. He held Li Dezhuang’s hand and squeezed it again and again, and leaned weakly on Li Dezhuang’s shoulder.
“It hurts so much.”
”You’re still moving forward even though it hurts.”
You are so strong that you didn’t faint now.
Mu Jian nuzzled into his shoulder affectionately, like a spoiled puppy, “Luckily I saved you. If you were injured, I would be a thousand times more painful than I am now.”
Li Dezhuang’s heart was slightly shaken, “Can you be honest?”
”Help me to rest on the couch.”
Li Dezhuang helped him up and put him on the bed. Just as he was about to pull the quilt over him, his hand was grabbed by Mu Jian, “You sleep on top of me too. This way, no one will steal you away while I’m sleeping.”
Li Dezhuang: “…”
Mu Jian gently tugged at him and said, “Wait for me to gather my strength and kill that old man.”
Li Dezhuang was stunned by his outrageous speech and looked around in panic. No one was around.
Mu Jian was amused by his reaction, “I’m not stupid. Come up quickly. I want to hug you.”
He acted like a child and said, “Come up.”
Li Dezhuang had no choice but to climb up, and before he could lie down, Mu Jian came up and put his arms around his waist. His voice became very soft because of weakness, like the murmur of a swallow.
”They say that if someone saves your life, you should repay him with your life. Guard Li, am I saving your life?”
He asked a very clever question.
The life-saving grace is real and cannot be denied.
But if you answer “yes”, it means you are willing to give yourself to me.
Li Dezhuang pushed him away and said, “Can you be more honest?”
Mu Jian laughed softly twice, leaned forward and bit his earlobe, “Say it.”
Li Dezhuang said in a self-deprecating tone: “Yes!”
Mu Jian smiled contentedly, like a child who had found a treasure, and rubbed his face affectionately.
