While King Lu was in the military state, Helian Manqiu was holed up in her room. Although she really wanted to see King Lu again and see that familiar face of his, she knew very well that it was best to stay away from him and pretend to be sick.

Regardless of whether or not King Lu was Mo Bai, she could not arouse suspicion at this time.

Even if Duke Lu was really Mo Bai who had transmigrated, she was in no hurry to investigate. At this moment, she knew that Gan Zhixuan had a thick black belly and a deep scheming mind.

Perhaps the person she was well aware of was not Gouyu, but rather the man from her previous life.

The two men had the same nature, so there wasn't much difference. At least, in the eyes of Helian Manqiu, there was not much difference.

She was very honest in her room, recuperating from her injuries. In fact, she had intensified her plans to train her troops and amass wealth. At the same time, she had also used this time to come up with more plans.

"His Highness, the law, has arrived …"

With a long shout, King Lu came up with a high profile to guard the mansion's rear quarters for a visit.

"Young General, Young General, His Highness the Law King has come to visit."

Helian Manqiu held her forehead. Couldn't she be more quiet?

A noble prince of the imperial court, what is he doing in such a small place?

Helplessly, he got up from the bed, tidied up his clothes, then laid back down on the bed. Reaching under the bed, he took out a box, opened it and dipped his finger in it. This was not good in ancient times. The mirror was too blurry.

Fortunately, she found a time and used silver to make a mirror. It was quite clear.

The little face in the mirror was sallow and sallow, with an appearance of someone who had yet to recover from a serious illness. It was as pitiful as it could be. This appearance, is it enough for His Highness the Law King to see?

"Uncle Yi, what do you think?"

"His Highness the Law King is an extremely shrewd person. If he brings military doctors to take your pulse, this general is worried that your identity will be exposed."

"Take his pulse. Let him take it."

Helian Manqiu stretched out her wrists. On each of her wrists, there was a wrist guard made of fine iron and bronze. It protected her wrists tightly.

This Bronze Essence Iron Bracers were originally made in the first place, so why did she give it to each of them? That was why Zhong Dazhi hadn't been seriously injured, and also because of the good fortune of this wristguard. On his arm, there was also such a thing. When it collided with the subordinate of King Lu, he took the opportunity to use the wristguard to block the blade.

This way, he wouldn't be heavily cut by the blade.

Later on, he had deliberately let the blade cut him in order to deal with King Lu. If he had killed King Lu's trusted expert without the slightest injury, King Lu wouldn't have let him off, and he wouldn't have much face either.

This was also the reason why Helian Manqiu was not worried about Zhongda.

Zhong Da's close-combat techniques were personally taught by her, drawing diagrams and secretly training them. In order to train her trusted generals and her personal guards, she had put in a lot of effort.

The wristguard moved from her wrist almost to her elbow, covering both of her arms. It was impossible for her to take her pulse. This was because this wristguard seemed to be welded to his arm, unable to break away.

In reality, there was a mechanism. It was just that the mechanism was too ingenious. Instead, it would cause others to focus on the deliberately created welding gap and ignore the mechanism of the wristguard.

Only those who had wrist guards were aware of the mechanism that had been opened. Helian Manqiu's wrist guard had a special mechanism, so it was impossible for others to open it.

His eyes were lifeless as he lay on the bed in a daze. His breathing was faint, his face was sallow, and his lips were pale and bloodless. With her small body, Helian Manqiu was lying on the bed, looking severely injured and awaiting death. Even her breathing had become unstable.

"Young General, it's yours."

He then hurriedly went to the door and opened it.

"His Highness the law has arrived to investigate the young general's illness."

King Lu walked in from outside the courtyard. The huge silver dragon flew out of his black robe, but it was still eye-catching and sullen.

He then kneeled outside the door, "This subject pays his respect to Your Highness."

The King of Law's gaze swept past his face and did not linger any longer. Now, he also knew why he had been crippled for so many years and had become a housekeeper at the garrison. What made him curious was, didn't this person say that his right arm was crippled?

Why did it seem like his right arm was intact?

He walked into the room. Before entering the room, he could smell a strong medicinal smell. The medicinal smell that drifted around the room made King Lu knit his brows slightly.

"Chenhe, Lian Qingyu, greets Your Highness. Please forgive me, Your Highness. Your subject is gravely ill and cannot stand up to welcome Your Highness. I offer my respects to Your Highness."

Helian Manqiu weakly lay on the bed as she raised her eyes to look at the Law King.

She was a patient, and the Law King couldn't argue with a child who was bedridden and sick, blaming her.

"No need to be so courteous, just lie down properly. How is your condition?"

Despite knowing that Helian Manqiu had been punished a few days ago by Gongye, it was hard to say. King Wen Yan asked Helian Manqiu how her condition was.

"Sorry for the trouble, Your Highness. I am fine, but my body has always been weak, and I can't recover from my injuries." The weather has been unusual lately, and the old wounds have only returned. Your Highness, please take a seat. This subject's room, I really do not dare to trouble Your Highness to lower yourself to this place. "

"Qing Yu, there's no need to be courteous. This King has the best military doctor by your side. I can help you check your pulse and take medicine."

"Thank you Your Highness, I have the most famous genius doctor around to diagnose and treat me, I do not dare to trouble Your Highness." It is just the recurrence of my old wounds. If His Highness were to see it, this subject would really lose all face. Please do not worry too much, Your Highness. This subject will recover after a few days of rest. "

The Law King also understood that Helian Qingyu definitely did not wish for others to see his punishment being whipped, so he did not force the matter.

"Someone, deliver the medicine this king gave Qing Yu. Qing Yu, this king gave you these medicine." Your body has always been weak, so you need to take extra care of it. "

"Thank you, Your Highness, this subject will be grateful."

Helian Manqiu did not hold back and accepted all the gifts that the Law King had given her. There was nothing bad about the gifts given by the prince. They were all the best of the best.

Looking at the seemingly familiar face of the Prince of Law, a familiar feeling once again emerged from the depths of his heart.

The face in front of him was indeed Mo Bai's. If it weren't for the looks and expression in his eyes, there was a nine out of ten resemblance.

Only her gaze that carried a faint gloominess and too cold, as well as the unspeakable sinister smile on King Lu's lips, made it so that if this man did not laugh and closed his eyes, she would really think that Mo Bai had come before her.

If it was Mo Bai, then the King of Law should also know what she knew.

If it was Mo Bai, then he should have traveled here with her in the time it took for them to arrive. If that was the case, then was the Law King who had attacked the Imperial Capital the previous time, the original King of Law, or Mo Bai?

If it was Mo Bai, it would only take a few hours to break into the military region. Back then, did the law king not do that to hide it from others, or was he too weak to do so?

From time to time, his gaze would sweep across King Lu's face, whether intentionally or unintentionally. Helian Manqiu smiled faintly.

"Your highness, your highness, your highness, how could you possibly come to this subject's room? This subject really doesn't dare come down here to visit."

"Qingyu, no need to be so courteous. Knowing that you are sick, it is within reason that This King has come to visit you."

"Servants, bring your highness some tea. Your highness, this is a Sprite prepared by this subject, I invite your highness to have a taste."

"Sprite? What tea is it? "

King Lu's brows moved slightly, and his gaze fell upon the teacup. Inside the white porcelain teacup was a teacup that seemed to be made of green and white porcelain, and it emitted a faint steam. The tea water had a slight jade-green hue and a refreshing fragrance wafted out from the teacup. However, the tea leaves were nowhere to be found.

"I brewed the tea myself. It was extremely rare. Because of time, and because of the materials, I could not concoct that much." If Your Highness likes it, this subject will gift some to you. "

King Lu picked up the tea and placed it on the tip of his nose, breathing in the scent. "It's good, it's sweet and fragrant. It lasts for a long time, if you don't drink this tea, it will make you feel relaxed and happy. I wonder, how does one make this tea? "

"Your Highness, forgive me for this, but please keep this a secret. You must know that this is your path to earn a living here, but it is inconvenient to tell Your Highness." "Hehe, who told me to have nothing but this ability, to rely on this to seek benefits and support the families of these warriors."

"Qingyu, you're really kind, make This King sigh."

King Lu took a sip. There was a unique flavor to the endless aftertaste. The refreshing and fragrant feeling in his mouth had never existed before.

"Good tea, it really is the best tea. Unfortunately, I only managed to taste this tea now. What a pity."

"Uncle Yi, go wrap up all the remaining tea leaves for His Highness and take them away later." Your Highness, don't worry, this subject doesn't have anything good to give Your Highness. I only have this little thing, I hope Your Highness does not dislike it. "

"This is the best. Qingyu is indeed extremely talented. Only This King has personally witnessed it."

"Your Highness is too kind, this subject only knows some small tricks, I do not dare to make a fool of myself in front of Your Highness."

She carefully looked at him, and at this moment, she was very close to him. Seeing the ethereal expression of enjoyment on his elegant face, she quietly closed her eyes and began to taste the tea. The current Law King reminded Helian Manqiu even more of Mo Bai. The same face, too similar.

"Why are you looking at This King like that?"

"This subject has a feeling that I have seen His Highness before, and I hope that Your Highness can forgive me for being impolite."

"Greetings, This King?"

"It is just a feeling, Your Highness and a good friend of mine from the past, look quite similar."

"Oh, that day when you saw This King lose his composure, was it because of that?"

"This is the reason. I was indeed not feeling well at the time, and my old injuries recur."

"Is Qingyu's injury still not completely healed?"

"This official's body has always been weak, it's not easy to recover from it. How can it be easy to recover from an old and new injury?" This subject has a great life, after resting for a few days I will gradually recover, and will not trouble Your Highness to worry about me. "

"Qing Yu's old injury should have healed long ago. Where did this new injury come from?"

Helian Manqiu lowered her eyes and pursed her lips tightly. After a moment, she lowered her head and said, "It's nothing. It's just that this subject's health is not good. I will naturally be better after a few days of rest."

"This King heard Marquis Qing Tian speak a few days ago and punished Qing Yu. He lashed you." I wonder, why did you anger the Marquis of Heaven, and why were you punished like this? "

"Heh heh, the duke wants to punish this subject. This subject is a subordinate of the duke, you don't need to ask for any reasons."

Helian Manqiu's tone intentionally carried some slight emotion as she turned her head to cover her expression.
