Chapter 107.1: Han Mingyi, You Dropped Your Moral Integrity On the Ground! (1)
“Mistress, what do I need to do?” Xia Yuan asked.
“I’ll say the acupuncture points, you’ll insert needles there. It only entered my body yesterday, right now it’s still in my arm. You only need to insert needles in the arm,” Du Xiaoli said, and then she recalled the insect’s speed and added, “However, we need to find a person with high martial arts skill to wait by the side. As soon as the insect comes out, it must be killed.”
“This can be left to this servant,” Meng Gu said.
Although Du Xiaoli hadn't seen Meng Gu actually fight anyone, her martial arts skills were undoubtedly the highest in the room, so she nodded her head and agreed.
In order to ensure that no one else would be harmed, Du Xiaoli had everyone go outside, leaving only Xia Yuan and Meng Gu.
The pain in her left arm continued to worsen Du Xiaoli's poor complexion. She took her own pulse and asked Xia Yuan to unwrap the bandage that was wrapped around her arm, revealing the bloody hole from the hairpin she had used.
“Meng Gu, in a little bit, the insect will come out from this bloody hole. When it comes out you must kill it,” Du Xiaoli instructed her.
“This servant understands.” Meng Gu nodded.
She didn't have much contact with people and was cold and icy to everyone, but she truly liked Du Xiaoli from the bottom of her heart. Seeing her tortured in this state, her heart, too, knotted in anger.
"Then let's start. Xia Yuan, needle No. 4, Tianquan point
..."
Under Du Xiaoli’s guidance, Xia Yuan inserted several needles in her arm. When Du Xiaoli cried for her to step back, she hurriedly left the bed and retreated to the side.
Du Xiaoli tilted her head, watching as a bulge traveled up her arm, slowly approaching the bloody hole. Just as it came out, she yelled out, "Meng Gu!"
"Clang!"
A dagger impaled the bed, just a few centimeters away from Du Xiaoli. The dagger had passed through the quilt and the thick mattress padded underneath, deeply embedding itself into the bed boards so that an insect spanning less than a centimeter was impaled onto the quilt.

Seeing the impaled parasite, Du Xiaoli smiled and said, "Thank you, Meng Gu."
Meng Gu took a handkerchief and wrapped the insect in it. With her other hand, she retrieved the dagger.
Han Mingxiang heard the sounds inside and, guessing that they were already done, walked in to see Xia Yuan dressing Du Xiaoli.
"How is it, has it been forced out?"
"It's already been forced out." Meng Gu showed her the black Gu insect in her handkerchief.
With Xia Yuan’s help, Du Xiaoli put on her clothes and sat up. Only when she saw Han Mingxiang dressed in flaming red did she realize that she had already put her wedding garments on.
"Princess, I'm already fine. Go back and continue to prepare for your wedding, I'll be there on time to find you."
Han Mingxiang shook her head, saying, "You're already in this state, how can I still let you send me off for my marriage.”
"But is there enough time for you to find someone else?" Du Xiaoli asked.
Aside from the time it would take to go find the other Princesses and come back, Han Mingxiang also didn't want those people to come and send her off to the marriage.
“What’s the big deal, I just won’t have anyone send me off,” Han Mingxiang said.
"Even if it's a marriage alliance peace treaty, how can you not have someone send you off!" Du Xiaoli said, "I'll just use my internal energy to heal my wounds in a little bit, it's fine."
The Grand Empress Dowager came in from outside, saying, “Mingxiang you go back first. You don’t need to worry about anything else.”
Seeing that the Grand Empress Dowager had spoken, Han Mingxiang had no choice but to go back. At the doorway, she ran into Han Mingze and Han Mingyi, who were coming in.
Learning that Du Xiaoli had woken up, Han Mingyi came directly to the room. Seeing Du Xiaoli, who was sitting and chatting with the Grand Empress Dowager, the tension in his heart finally eased.
The Grand Empress Dowager saw Han Mingyi come in and said, "You guys have a good chat, this old bone of mine has been here all night, now I have to go rest."
Knowing that Han Mingyi and the others had things to talk about, the Grand Empress Dowager left understandingly.
It was just that her bed was being slept in by Du Xiaoli, so she had to find a new bed again.
Han Mingyi came to the bedside and sat down, reaching out to touch her face. His voice was hoarse as he asked, "Does it hurt a lot?"
"It’s okay, it's still bearable." Du Xiaoli didn't avoid his hand. Out of the corner of her eye, she spotted a small hole in his hand and asked, "What happened to your hand?"
Han Mingyi looked at the hole he had made by the hairpin, retracted his hand, and said, "It's nothing, I was accidentally pricked a little."
"Oh." Du Xiaoli saw that the shape was very similar to the wound on her own arm. Seeing the hairpin on the bed, she could make an educated guess as to how the injury had come about.
"I'm sorry, when you were in danger, I wasn't by your side. I said I'd protect you, but broke my word," Han Mingyi said guiltily.
"This is not your fault. You can't be by my side all the time. I can only blame myself for being too negligent and not knowing much about the practice of Gu." Du Xiaoli shook her head and didn't blame Han Mingyi.
Han Mingze entered the room, looked at the two, and coughed twice, saying, "Although the two of you want to be alone, there are still some things I need to ask Anle, so..."References
