Chapter 101 The Benefits of the Little Marquis was Immense (2)

After experiencing this incident and waiting anxiously for most of the night, everyone was all exhausted and sleepy. The guards went to Chi Jingxi's room to fetch his clothes, and Wen Yantong helped him put them on carefully.

He couldn't move his right shoulder now, so it was very difficult to put on his clothes.

Chi Jingxi didn't think it mattered, probably because analgesics were applied to the wounds, he looked much better.

Mu Yang helped him to walk outside the house, and the rest of the people followed behind.

Chi Jingxi paused before they reached the stairs. He turned his head and looked at Wen Yantong who was standing by the door.

Mu Yang asked, "What's wrong, Brother Xi?"

Wen Yantong also cast a questioning gaze, as if asking Chi Jingxi what else he wanted.

Chi Jingxi paused and asked, "Where will you sleep at night?"

Wen Yantong froze for a moment, thinking that this was indeed a problem. She looked at Mu Yang and said, "Isn’t Mu Yang sleeping with Fu Zixian? Then I'll sleep in his room."

As she spoke, she then asked Mu Yang for his opinion, "Is that okay?"

Mu Yang nodded. "Go, the room is empty anyway."

After hearing this, Chi Jingxi didn't say anything. He just back and slowly stepped down the three steps, and was supported as he departed slowly.



It was already around four o'clock in the morning. The night was thick, the wind was mixed with dampness, and it was very cold and biting. The person with the dislocated limbs in Chi Jingxi's room had been moved out long ago and the tunnel was completely blocked. The guards carefully checked the room to make sure that there were no hidden traps.

After he was helped into the room, at Wen Yantong’s request, the guards retrieved several new soft quilts. They were spread on top of the bed, the top layer was Wen Yantong's custom-made blanket.

The fur outside was made of rabbit fur, which was very soft to the touch. The inside was filled with duck feathers and cotton, making it fluffy and warm. When Chi Jingxi laid down, he felt as if he was sleeping on a cloud.

"Where did this come from?" Chi Jingxi asked.

He didn't have a coral-red colored blanket.

The guard answered truthfully. "It was sent by Wen gongzi. He specifically told this subordinate to lay it on top of the bed. If the Little Marquis doesn't like it, this subordinates will take it off."

"No need." Chi Jingxi looked at the blanket and said, "Go out. Don't let anyone in until I wake up."

The guard heeded his order and exited the room to guard the door.

Wen Yantong went to ask the doctor again. Only after confirming that Zhang Jieran was fine did she walk to Mu Yang's room. When she arrived, Wen Yantong found two guards standing at the door.

One of the guards said, "Little Marquis ordered this subordinate to prepare hot water for Wen gongzi to wash. The hot water is almost ready, so please wait a moment, Wen gongzi."

Wen Yantong was very surprised, she responded blankly and walked into the room.

After a while, the guards came in with a big wooden barrel. They put it behind the screen, mixed cold water to adjust the temperature, and said to Wen Yantong, "If the hot water is not enough, just let us know. This subordinate will be outside the door."

Wen Yantong nodded, "Then you all guard the door well and don't let anyone come in."

The two guards responded and left the room. 

Wen Yantong walked around behind the screen, stretched out her hand and felt the water temperature. It was just right. 

Half of her body was also soaked in blood, but it had already dried while waiting for Chi Jingxi's treatment, so her clothes were very stiff.

Wen Yantong quickly took off her clothes. Her chest was tightly bound. The chest binding was specially customized. The front of the binding was padded with a thin board of wood and cotton. So when her chest was bound, it created a flat and hard chest.

She quickly submerged herself into the wooden barrel, her whole body was soaked in the water.

The hot water engulfed her whole body, it made her feel very comfortable. Wen Yantong couldn't help but sigh: Hugging the Little Marquis's thigh indeed gave her many benefits!

In order to avoid unnecessary complications, she quickly wiped off all the blood on her body, and washed her hair casually. Once she was clean, Wen Yantong then put on her new change of clothes and climbed onto the bed.

The thrilling night finally came to an end. After the shocking experience, Wen Yantong was already so tired that she fell asleep as soon as she closed her eyes.



Chi Jingxi didn't sleep well at night because he was eroded by pain. He also occasionally pulled his wound unintentionally when he moved, waking him up.

When Cheng Xin got up early the next morning, he asked the guards to escort the teachers and students out of Nian'an Temple. He then closed all the entrances of Nian'an Temple, not allowing anyone to go out again.

The elite soldiers and the renowned doctors sent by the Emperor arrived soon after. But because Chi Jingxi was still asleep, all the doctors were waiting next door.

Wen Yantong even fell asleep until five in the afternoon. Her hair, which was naturally dried, was draped softly on her shoulders. Hearing some noise coming from the outside, she put on her coat and went out to check.

Mu Yang's room was next to Chi Jingxi’s, so as soon as she went out, she saw a few doctors standing not far from her door. They were conversing with one another with anxious expressions on their faces.

Confused, she walked over and asked, "What are you doing here?"

One of them glanced at her and said, "We are the doctors sent by His Majesty to check the Little Marquis’ wounds. And who are you?"

"I'm a classmate of the Little Marquis." Wen Yantong answered. "How is Little Marquis? Are his injuries serious? Did his bandages get changed?"
