Chapter 1972 Coming for You
Chapter 1972 Coming for You
As soon as Lu Zhaoling opened her eyes, she saw Zhou Shiyue's worried expression.
She heard his voice and gently rubbed her face against his palm.
"I heard you, and I saw you."
Although her voice was somewhat weak, she sounded quite lucid and not so weak as to be unable to speak.
Zhou Shiyue then asked, "Where do you feel uncomfortable? Do you feel that your injury is serious?"
Upon hearing his question, Lu Zhaoling paused for a moment and then seriously examined her own body.
Seeing her reaction, Zhou Shiyue's heart jumped into his throat again, and even Qingfeng held his breath.
They were all afraid of hearing Lu Zhaoling say something was wrong.
He was also afraid that she was considering whether or not to tell him the truth.
Zhou Shiyue stared intently at her. If she really wasn't telling the truth and wanted to only report good news and not bad, he could tell at a glance.
Lu Zhaoling felt it for a moment, then obediently reached out and touched the top of her head.
"My master has arrived, hasn't he? I can sense the power of the talisman."
She reached out and touched it, and indeed found a talisman. She reached out to peel it off.
"Don't move."
Zhou Shiyue immediately grabbed her hand.
"This talisman is useless?"
“It works.” Lu Zhaoling paused for a moment and said, “I just feel the power of the talisman, so my internal injuries have healed by more than half. Don’t worry, I’m fine.”
Seeing that he was still staring intently at her, Lu Zhaoling quickly said, "I'm really fine. I did suffer a severe backlash before, but I also had talismans on me, which blocked half of it, and now I have my master's talisman..."
As she said this, she couldn't help but let out a soft "Eh," and stared intently at Zhou Shiyue, "You must have been by my side the whole time, right?"
“Your Highness, the Prince has been sitting on the bed watching over you the whole time, his hand never letting go. He was eating with one hand just now and only ate a few bites.”
Qingfeng quickly said this from the side.
At times like these, it's important to let the princess know that the prince cares about her and is very concerned about her.
Lu Zhaoling turned her head to look and then noticed that Qingfeng was standing next to her.
"Go and tell them to prepare a new meal. I'll eat with the Princess." Zhou Shiyue glanced at him.
Qingfeng immediately replied, "Yes!"
He walked out with light steps.
After they went outside, Aoki and Aone, who were waiting outside, all looked over.
Upon seeing Qingfeng's expression, they immediately understood. Their spirits lifted, and they asked in unison, "The Princess Consort is awake?"
Qingfeng nodded, "Yes, she's awake. The princess seems to be alright. Don't worry, everyone. Go eat and take turns resting."
"Great."
Qingyin and Qingbao had been so worried that they couldn't eat, but after hearing Qingfeng's words, everyone seemed to come back to life.
They quickly returned to their respective duties and things returned to normal.
In the room.
Lu Zhaoling was helped to sit up by Zhou Shiyue.
She looked at Zhou Shiyue and sighed, "I knew it. The reason I was able to wake up so quickly must be because I've taken a lot of your good karma."
Now she wondered again, if she had taken Zhou Shiyue with her when she went to cultivate the dragon vein in her previous life, would she have been blown up?
How exactly did she die during the time of the First Mystic Sect? If she had taken Zhou Shiyue with her, would she still be alive?
"I'm really useful to you, right?" Zhou Shiyue asked.
Lu Zhaoling nodded and said, "Of course, it really is useful. I don't know where all the merit you have come from."
“Perhaps, it’s for you?” Zhou Shiyue said casually.
Neither of them mentioned Qian Dingxing for the time being.
After Qingyin and Qingbao brought the food over, Zhou Shiyue carried Lu Zhaoling to the table and sat her down.
Lu Zhaoling's stomach growled.
"I'm really hungry." She immediately picked up her chopsticks. "In the past, if I was injured by using mystical arts or if I was exhausted, I would be so hungry that I couldn't stand it. So my second junior sister hardly ever paid attention to meal times. As long as I was hungry and wanted to eat, she would cook something delicious for me."
Zhou Shiyue chuckled softly.
"But I've heard that Junior Sister Rong used to catch a certain gluttonous cat who would sneak into the kitchen to eat in the middle of the night quite a few times?"
Lu Zhaoling glanced at him sideways, "Second Junior Sister has terrible taste. I was clearly still thin back then, but she insisted that I was fat and wouldn't let me eat late-night snacks."
"I heard it's because that greedy cat eats too much and gets indigestion?"
Qingyin and Qingbao helped serve the dishes, and the two maids were very happy to hear the prince and princess bickering like this.
That's great. Let them keep watching this prince and princess. It's unacceptable for either of them to get hurt.
If either the prince or the princess is injured, the atmosphere in the palace will plummet. They will both feel heavy-hearted and even somewhat lost, as if they have lost their pillar of support.
Especially the princess.
The princess is now like the backbone of the prince, his source of vitality.
If the prince is injured, the princess will be there to support him; but if the princess is injured, the prince may not be able to cure her.
The two maids came to a conclusion: the person they should protect most is the Princess. The Princess is more important than the Prince.
Lu Zhaoling has a pretty good appetite.
Zhou Shiyue had been worried that he wouldn't be able to eat much, but now that he was eating with her, his appetite improved.
The two ate quite a bit, much to the delight of their two maids who were all smiles as they cleared the table.
“They’re getting sillier and sillier. They’re laughing so happily when they see us eating so much.” Lu Zhaoling teased Zhan Qingyin and Qingbao. “Aren’t they afraid that we’ll eat all the food stored at home? They can only eat rice porridge.”
Qingbao chuckled.
"Your Highness, as long as you are in good health, I can drink cold water."
"stupid."
Lu Zhaoling chuckled.
"Go out and tell them not to worry, I'll be full of energy again after a couple of days of rest." Lu Zhaoling knew that Aoki and the others must be very worried about her.
"Send someone to Huaiyuan to tell them that the Princess Consort has woken up," Zhou Shiyue added.
"Yes."
After the two maids finished tidying up and left, only the two of them remained in the room. Lu Zhaoling looked at Zhou Shiyue and asked, "Did you hear what I said to you when I was unconscious?"
"How are you feeling right now?" Zhou Shiyue didn't respond to her question.
"I'm really fine."
Lu Zhaoling could tell at a glance that he was worried that she was still injured and that talking about these things would make her tired.
She took his hand. "I'll just hold onto you."
“You only said half of it, you didn’t explain it clearly,” Zhou Shiyue said.
Lu Zhaoling thought for a moment, "Yes, I remember now, I haven't finished yet."
“Why don’t you rest for another day and we can talk again tomorrow?” Zhou Shiyue said. “Qian Dingxing has been taken to Huaiyuan by Master. Don’t worry, he won’t leave, and the matter is still here.”
