After conquering seven male favorites, the vicious heroine wants to run away

Chapter 136 Entrusting My Life
The sound of whipping came from below. Zhenbao deliberately chose to hit the thick-skinned ones, and with each hit, he made a big heart shape with his hands towards his princess.

Shi Nuanyu felt ashamed. Had she ever taught the little girl to make a heart shape with her hands?

Without time to think it over, Yuehua calmly and confidently recounted the whole story.

"I was on my way out to find a tutor who was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. When I got to Yujing Lane, I was hit on the head with a stick. When I woke up, I found myself in an unfamiliar room and my clothes had been changed."

I was looking for an opportunity to slip away, but then Young Master Tao came in. He didn't seem quite right. I've been at Chunyu Tower for years, and I could tell at a glance that Young Master Tao had been drugged.

Young Master Tao was delirious but did not do anything out of line; he smashed his head with a candlestick to keep himself conscious.

"Knowing full well that Prince Tao was the princess's husband, I asked him to knock me unconscious. I know nothing more after that."

Even if she had ten times the courage, she wouldn't dare to lay a finger on the princess, let alone have a great grudge to settle. How could she possibly drive herself to such a dead end?

Changling reported truthfully, "Princess, there are indeed marks on Yuehua's neck."

Shi Nuanyu carefully pondered her words and observed her expression.

After a long pause, she slowly spoke, "Moonflower, I don't have much patience left. I'll give you one last chance. Think it through before you answer me."

She didn't care when she lied to herself the first time at Chunyu Tower, but she's lying to herself again today. She's genuinely not interested in other people's affairs, but she's also unwilling to be taken advantage of.

"Changling, tell Hua Niang that from today onwards, once Yuehua has moved into the Princess's residence, she will be released only after she tells the truth."

A chill ran down Yuehua's spine as she looked up in surprise.

Everyone says Princess Nanyue is stupid and brainless, but the rumors are not credible.

She knew she was lying when she was at Chunyulou.

"As for you," Shi Nuanyu sneered, "from today onwards, you will be imprisoned in the Tao Mansion. Whenever my husband wakes up, that will be the time to determine your guilt."

"Does the princess not fear being petitioned by the common people?"

Grandpa Tao shouted in dissatisfaction.

Shi Nuanyu turned away disdainfully, "If Old Master Tao can leave the Tao residence, then I have lost."

Even if she wasn't the original owner of this body, she was confident enough that the Empress would stand by her side.

Tao Huiyan fell into a coma, and Fusheng sealed his acupoints, putting him into a state of suspended animation.

The group hurriedly returned to the princess's residence and arrived at the Oriole Residence, where the candidate had not yet taken the exam.

When they arrived, several men were already in place, equipped with everything.

The group stripped Tao Huiyan naked and put her into the hot spring.

Qinghe stood in front of the woman who was openly watching and covered her eyes.

"Nuan Nuan, don't look."

Shi Nuanyu reached out and scratched his stomach, teasing him with ill intent.

"What's wrong? Is our Imperial Advisor jealous?"

The itching in his abdomen made him feel hot inside, and Qinghe helplessly grabbed her mischievous hand.

"His Majesty just sent word that the matter of the Peach Mansion will be decided by Nuan Nuan, and also ordered someone to send over a lot of precious medicinal herbs."

Shi Nuanyu touched her heart, feeling a warm glow. So this was the unconditional trust of her parents. She envied the original owner of this body even more.

"Daddy and Mommy treat Nuannuan so well."

"Your Highness, if we keep being so lovey-dovey, Mr. Peach will really have no reason to live."

Yu Changfeng, having unknowingly taken off his outer shirt to reveal his muscular chest, walked over confidently to offer his reminder.

When Shi Nuanyu turned around and saw this, she instinctively covered her eyes and peered at him from head to toe through her fingers.

Are you an exhibitionist?

Yu Changfeng scoffed at her behavior, but proudly displayed his perfectly defined muscles.

"If we don't expose it, we can't save your precious heart."

Shi Nuanyu shifted her gaze and walked to Fusheng's side, looking worriedly at Tao Huiyan, who was leaning against the hot spring pool.

Is there anything I can do?

As Fusheng placed the medicinal herbs into the hot spring, he explained, "Young Master Tao is afflicted with Gu worms and has also been given an aphrodisiac, causing a blockage in his heart meridian. Unblocking the heart meridian is not difficult; the difficulty lies in the fact that the Gu worms in his body are already dead." Shi Nuanyu was shocked. Could there really be such miraculous creatures as Gu worms?
She didn't dare to disturb them and listened carefully.

“The mother Gu is dead, and the offspring Gu will surely die as well. The Gu worm in his heart meridian is dead. If we want him to continue living, we must bring the Gu worm back to life.”

What puzzled him was how he managed to keep the offspring gu from detaching from the mother gu alive.

Knowing he had doubts, Shi Nuanyu looked at him seriously and said, "Just tell me what you need me to do."

She took his life-saving medicine; she has to take responsibility.

After a moment of silence, Fusheng took out a pill and handed it to her. Seeing that she was about to take the pill, he moved his hand away.

"Let me explain in detail. Young Master Tao's body is weak due to the parasitic presence of the Zi Gu for many years, and he cannot withstand the infusion of internal energy. Since men are yang and women are yin, the princess is needed as the medium for the infusion of internal energy."

Before even trying, he frowned deeply. "No, the infusion of internal energy is extremely dangerous. If we're not careful, the Poison Girl will die."

The Poisonous Woman is dead; no one else can survive.

Hua Lingyan nodded in agreement, "Your Highness cannot take the risk of finding someone to replace her."

He would rather die himself than see the person he loves get hurt.

Shi Nuanyu gently comforted him, "Don't rush, let Fusheng finish speaking."

She trusted the man in front of her.

Fusheng smiled, took the woman's hand and kissed her fingertips, then casually glanced at the group of people.

"Is the infusion of internal energy under your control, or do you lack the ability to do so?"

Shan Baiyu was the first to step forward, saying, "I'll be the first one."

He owed Tao Huiyan a life, and he remembered that debt.

Fu Sheng did not answer, but looked at Shi Nuan Yu. Her words meant that she was handing over her life to them completely, and no matter how painful the process was, she could not struggle.

Shi Nuanyu understood his meaning and looked at Tao Huiyan, whose fate was unknown.

Fine, I'll give it my all.

She took the pills with a determined look in her eyes. "What should I do?"

The woman's resolute demeanor drew the attention of several men to her.

Few people in the world would be willing to entrust their lives to them.

Hua Lingyan ran over and took her hand. "Your Highness, don't be afraid. A-Ling will always be with you."

His large, watery eyes, like those of a bird, made Shi Nuanyu's heart itch, and she chuckled as she stroked the boy's face.

"I know that Ah Ling will always be with me, so I'm not afraid."

She looked at the worried men and said, "So you can go ahead and do your thing without any worries."

Having made the decision, she was prepared to bear the consequences.

Qinghe walked to her side, knelt down on one knee, cupped her face, and planted a kiss on her red lips.

"The process may be a little painful, but I believe Nuannuan can do it."

He kissed her in broad daylight, in front of so many people.

Shi Nuanyu turned her face away shyly, not because she was shy, but because there were too many people.

The men whose homes had been raided looked displeased, their murderous gazes fixed on Qinghe.

Before even trying, she blushed deeply and inwardly grumbled: What's so great about kissing? They've all fallen into the witch's trap.

Yu Changfeng, not wanting to be outdone, jokingly said, "Your Highness allowed him to kiss you, how about letting me have a taste too?"

Shi Nuanyu rolled her eyes at him, "Why are you meddling in this?"

Not wanting to joke with him, she tugged at Fusheng's sleeve and asked again, "What should I do?"

At this point, Fusheng became somewhat awkward.

"Take the pill, remove your clothes, and embrace Young Master Tao."
