It was easy to take off the clothes back then, but now that Jiang Luoxue is putting them on, she realised how difficult it is to put on these layers of ancient clothes.
The rustling sound continued for a long time, and she still hadn't finished dressing.
Ye Xuanchen turned his head and saw her looking at a pile of clothes with a bitter expression, knowing that this young lady from a noble family didn't know how to dress.
If this continues, I don't know when she will be able to dress properly again.
He hesitated for a moment, then, suppressing his burning face, went over and resignedly helped her put on the clothes.
"Thank you, General Ye!"
Finally dressed, she thought about how she had forced herself on the man first, and he had been kind enough to help her get dressed; she felt she had to make amends.
So she said to the man, "General Ye, I just discovered from your pulse that you have been poisoned by a very potent aphrodisiac."
That's probably why you came to soak in the cold pool!
"Miss Jiang also knows medicine?" Ye Xuanchen looked at her in surprise.
He found it hard to believe that a rich young lady who couldn't even dress herself could possess medical skills!
Jiang Luoxue nodded: "I know a little."
Then, with good intentions, she added, "Although the cold pool can temporarily suppress your poison, it is very bad for your health."
"If you soak in it for too long, your body may suffer. You should detoxify."
Hearing her explain herself so convincingly, Ye Xuanchen began to believe her somewhat, and said with a wry smile, "Of course I know that soaking in the icy pool is bad for the body, but detoxifying is easier said than done!"
"To be honest, in the past six months, the General's Mansion has sent people to visit all the famous doctors in Yunqi."
The emperor even posted an imperial edict, but no one could cure the poison.
I had no choice but to come here.
Jiang Luoxue was silent for a while before saying, "I do have a prescription here that can cure the poison in your body, but I don't know if you dare to use it."
Although they have already been intimate, they are still strangers in the end. It all depends on whether the man dares to trust himself.
Ye Xuanchen's eyes narrowed: "Tell me, if it's true, I will definitely repay you handsomely in the future!"
Jiang Luoxue nodded: "Of course it's true, but some things are extremely rare. If you can find them, this poison will definitely be cured."
"Whatever it is, just tell me. If it exists in this world, I will definitely be able to find it." Ye Xuanchen couldn't help but press on, he really wanted to regain his health.
Whether the woman was telling the truth or not, he was going to give it a try.
Jiang Luoxue didn't hide anything and directly gave the prescription: "Three qian of Snow Marrow Lotus. This grows in extremely yin places. You can have someone go to such places to find it."
"Snow Marrow Lotus, I've remembered it. Are there any more?"
"There are also five pieces of ice cicada molting, a cup of green bamboo sap, ... After taking them for an hour, you need to sit quietly in the cold pool again. You only need to do this three times."
Jiang Luoxue listed four or five medicinal herbs, their preparation methods, and usages, and then specifically reminded him: "However, this prescription has a side effect. The user will temporarily lose their desires, so you should decide for yourself whether to use it or not."
Jiang Luoxue was struck by the man's tireless actions previous night, and decided to give him a special reminder.
Ye Xuanchen also recalled his previous recklessness and couldn't help but blush.
He felt like his 22 years of chastity have been completely ruined by what happened last night.
Worried that Jiang Luoxue would misunderstand, he quickly explained, "I...I don't usually act like that. This is the first time..."
Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Luoxue interrupted him: "It's alright, young people are full of energy, it's understandable."
"It's too late now, I have to go. Please tell your guards not to stop me."
"Let me see you out!" Ye Xuanchen said, and took the lead in walking out.
When he and Jiang Luoxue walked out one after the other, the guards were immediately astonished.
It's like seeing a ghost!
Yan Qing stared wide-eyed for a long time, unable to close his mouth, not understanding where this woman had come from.
The bodyguard Mo Qi drew his long sword and darted in front of Jiang Luoxue like a ghost, startling her so much that she quickly grabbed Ye Xuanchen for help.
She felt a pang of regret once again for not having firearms.
In this ancient world teeming with martial arts masters, without the aid of firearms, the fighting techniques she learned in modern times would be utterly ineffective!
She was so focused on guarding against Mo Qi, Jiang Luoxue didn't notice that a coin-sized mark had just appeared on her wrist, faintly glowing.
Seeing that Mo Qi's sword was about to pierce Jiang Luoxue, Ye Xuanchen quickly pulled her behind him and said, "Mo Qi, step back! You mustn't be rude to Miss Jiang!"
Yanqing's jaw, which he had just closed, dropped again.
When did their master become so tender and protective of women?
He even personally protected the girl!
It was practically a rain of red from the sky.
Ye Xuanchen glared at his attendant's stupid look: "What are you daydreaming about? Hurry up and have someone find a set of women's clothes."
Yanqing asked blankly, "Why are you looking for women's clothes?"
"Just go when I tell you to, why are you asking so many questions!" Ye Xuanchen was so angry he wanted to kick Yan Qing.
If it weren't for the fact that this guy grew up with me and is extremely loyal, he wouldn't have hesitated to do this.
He really wanted to kick this dimwit to the ends of the earth.
Finally sensing his master's displeasure, Yanqing immediately lowered his chin and said, "I'll go right now."
Yanmo, worried that he would do something foolish again, quickly followed behind him.
Ye Xuanchen turned to Jiang Luoxue and said, "Miss Jiang, this outfit is not suitable for you to wear out. You should change into something else before you go."
Unexpectedly, the man was so considerate. Jiang Luoxue glanced at her clothes, which were stained with blood and water, making them look mottled and unsightly. There were also puncture wounds from bandits on the mountain, so it was indeed not suitable to wear them in public.
So she agreed to Ye Xuanchen's suggestion.
"Then thank you, General Ye."
"Miss Jiang, please don't be so polite. Please rest in my carriage for a while. Someone will bring your clothes over shortly."
"Thank you, General Ye!" Jiang Luoxue didn't stand on ceremony and got into the carriage without any hesitation.
When the clothes arrived, Jiang Luoxue discovered that they were extremely similar to the ones she was wearing; if one didn't look closely, it would be impossible to tell the difference.
It seems that Ye Xuanchen's subordinate is quite thoughtful; it's likely that this general is also quite capable.
After Jiang Luoxue changed her clothes, Ye Xuanchen personally saw her off.
From their conversation on the way, he learned that she was the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Rites, so he proposed to visit her family to ask for her hand in marriage.
Jiang Luoxue firmly refused and told him bluntly, "General Ye, you don't need to take what happened before to heart, and I will not agree to your marriage proposal."
"Why?" Ye Xuanchen couldn't understand. Jiang Luoxue had already given him her innocence.
If I don't marry her, who would marry someone who has lost their virginity?
The girl is barely of marriageable age and probably doesn't know how difficult it is for a woman to lose her virginity.
Ye Xuanchen planned to explain things to her.
"Miss Jiang, I have now ruined your innocence, It will be difficult for you to get married in the future."
"If people find out, even if you are the daughter of a high-ranking official, I'm afraid your family won't tolerate you."
"Your future fate will either be ended by a three-foot-long white silk ribbon, or you will be sent to an old shrine to spend the rest of your life in solitude and meditation."
"If that's the case, you might as well marry me. I'll grant you the position of my principal wife, and I promise to treat you with respect from now on, and I will never allow anyone to bully or humiliate you."
Jiang Luoxue shook her head and refused.
"Thank you for your kindness, General Xie, but if I, Jiang Luoxue, am to marry, my husband must be someone who is mutually in love and affectionate with me."
Moreover, I am a jealous person and do not like to share a husband with others.
Therefore, to be my husband, you must promise to be with one person for life, and never marry another, not even a concubine!
"What I want is a relationship of mutual support and companionship, not a hasty marriage to someone else because of an accident."
"If the other person doesn't meet my criteria, I'd rather stay single for life than settle."
Jiang Luoxue's remarks left Ye Xuanchen speechless with shock.
In an era that encouraged men to have multiple wives and concubines, this girl's ideas could only be described as shocking and unconventional.
If those old-fashioned, rigid scholars knew about this, they would probably drown her in their spittle!
