Yin Liuli quietly looked at the Empress.

"Your Majesty, I don't like her."

Although she said it as a rejection, her clear and innocent eyes made it impossible for anyone to be angry with her.

"Liuli, Yi'er is a bit spoiled. She offended you just now. Grandmother apologizes on her behalf."

The old lady of the Duke's household sighed softly, unable to bear it any longer, and said, "Please, for the sake of your grandmother and the Empress, help Yi'er!"

Gu Jinyan quickly stood up and looked at Yin Liuli pleadingly.

"Liuli, I also apologize to you on behalf of my mother."

Even Madam Zhen couldn't help but try to persuade her daughter.

"Liuli, both the Empress and the Old Madam have said so, please help His Highness."

Yin Liuli said casually,

"Mother, grandmother, Your Majesty the Empress, it's not that Liuli is disrespectful to you."

A doctor doesn't knock on doors, and a doctor doesn't sell his services cheaply. Princess Chengyi has repeatedly mocked my mother and me. I will not help someone who has treated me this way.

If I want Liuli to take action, I want her to apologize to me personally and beg me!

As soon as he finished speaking, a look of surprise flashed across everyone's faces.

The Empress and the eldest princess are people of such high status that others would be eager to curry favor with them, yet Yin Liuli showed them no respect whatsoever.

I really don't know where she, a little girl, gets such a big temper!

"Yi'er, you were indeed wrong before; you were too temperamental!"

The Empress, disregarding everything else, quickly coaxed Cheng Yi, saying, "You heard it too, only Liuliu can save you now. You should apologize to her quickly!"

"The Empress Dowager wants me to apologize to her? Who does she think she is!"

A flash of anger crossed Cheng Yi's face as he gasped for breath, "Even if it kills me, I will not... Ah!"

Before she could finish speaking, another wave of excruciating pain struck, her pale face contorted in agony once more, and large drops of sweat rolled down her cheeks.

Gu Jinyan's eyes were red with anxiety, and he said with a look of disappointment, "You're hopeless."

"Mother! What time is it and you're still so confused? Do you want to die of pain yourself?!"

You have repeatedly embarrassed Liuli, which is already wrong of you. If you continue to insist on your way, I can't do anything about it!

"Yan'er, even you..."

Cheng Yi stared at her son in shock, her vision blurring.

Before she could even catch her breath, the excruciating pain in her wrist intensified with each wave, a pain so unbearable that even being cut into pieces couldn't compare. She felt like she was grinding her teeth to powder.

After enduring the pain for a while longer, Cheng Yi could no longer bear it and looked at Yin Liuli with difficulty.

"Yin, Yin Liuli, what I did to you before... it was my fault."

I apologize to you... Please save me, it hurts so much...

Yin Liuli gave a nonchalant snort.

"In that case, I accept your apology; that will ease your pain."

After saying that, she raised her hand and drew a "yin-removing talisman" in her palm. With a flick of her fingers, a ray of light suddenly appeared between her fingers.

She held Cheng Yi's arm and said in a flat tone,

"Water snakes are nourished by the yin energy in the water for a long time, so their venom contains a very strong yin energy, making it more toxic than that of ordinary venomous snakes."

The intense pain in your wound is caused by the evil spirits. I need to draw out these evil spirits from your body and then relieve the pain. You will need to endure it for a little longer.

Cheng Yi dared not say anything more, only nodded tremblingly.

"good……"

Yin Liuli sent her spiritual light into Cheng Yi's Baihui acupoint on the top of his head. In an instant, blood gushed out from the swollen, black wound on his wrist.

The blood was dark red and almost crimson, making everyone who saw it feel a chill.

Even the imperial physicians couldn't remove this foul blood. If it weren't for Yin Liuli, I really can't imagine how Cheng Yi would have been tormented by the insidious poison!

"pain……"

Cheng Yi's pale face contorted in pain again as she groaned in agony.

Gu Jinyan quickly grasped her other hand, supporting her with his strong chest, and gently coaxed her.

"Mother, just bear with it a little longer, it will be over soon."

Cheng Yi gritted her teeth, and the veins on the back of her son's hand bulged as she gripped him tightly.

Until the smeared crimson blood turned bright red, Yin Liuli raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Alright, now it's time to heal the wounds and relieve the pain."

She raised her hand and drew a "pain-relieving talisman" in her palm. With a flick of her fingers, she sent spiritual light into Cheng Yi's wound.

Cheng Yi trembled involuntarily, as if a warm current had been injected into her body, flowing through her entire body like a spring.

In just a moment, the excruciating, searing pain disappeared, replaced by a tingling, warm sensation that spread throughout the body.

She let out a soft hum, feeling as if all her limbs and bones had been loosened, and her body went limp as she fell into Gu Jinyan's arms.

Gu Jinyan quickly hugged her, his handsome, tense expression slowly relaxing.

"Mother, are you feeling better?"

"Much better..."

Cheng Yi nodded weakly, then nestled in her son's arms and sobbed, "Yan'er, Mother thought... thought I wouldn't make it..."

"Your Highness's wound..."

Someone exclaimed in surprise, and everyone's eyes were drawn to her hand.

The previously bluish-black and swollen skin around the wound visibly lightened, the blood stopped flowing, and the wound slowly healed.

The Empress's phoenix eyes lit up, and she rushed to Cheng Yi's side in surprise to check on him.

"It's healed... I never imagined that Liuli's talisman would be so miraculous! Yi'er, you're alright!"

"Who says otherwise! Fengyi, I told you to trust Liuli, didn't I?"

Even the old lady couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, repeatedly beckoning to Yin Liuli, "Liuli, come here quickly, let your grandmother see how such a small girl can be so amazing!"

"Yes, Grandmother."

Yin Liuli composed herself and secretly regulated her inner energy.

She had used the talisman several times in a row, which had exhausted her energy, and she felt a little weak.

Gu Jinyan keenly noticed a hint of fatigue on her face, and his deep eyes were filled with heartache.

"Grand Aunt, Liuli hasn't used anything since she arrived, and she's already exhausted herself casting spells for me and my mother. I beg you to give her some."

If his mother hadn't been leaning in his arms, he would have stepped forward to embrace Yin Liuli and used his chest to support her!

Unexpectedly, he noticed her fatigue, and Yin Liuli smiled at him.

The old lady said with a face full of pity, "Reward! Reward! Someone, bring this bowl of bird's nest soup to me!"

"Liuli, whatever you want to use, just tell your grandmother!"

The Empress's red eyes also turned to Yin Liuli, her voice slightly choked.

"Liuli, you not only saved me, but also my daughter!"

"Whatever you desire, I will surely grant it to you!"

Yin Liuli was only focused on drinking large mouthfuls of bird's nest porridge.

Knowing she couldn't help her daughter much, Madam Zhen could only stand beside her, offering words of advice with eyes full of heartache.

"Liuli, drink slowly..."

Having expended so much internal energy, Yin Liuli was truly starving. She shook her head after finishing the porridge.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Liuli does not seek any reward."

"You saved my life, so you have done me a favor. I owe you one."

Just tell me what you want, and I'll do it for you if it's within my power!

Cheng Yi's voice came through, then she frowned and changed the subject, saying, "However, Yin Liuli, there is still something I need to clarify with you!"
