Chapter 335 You will become my daughter-in-law in the future
As the Yang Gu's awakening time approached, the dormant Gu worms began to slowly wriggle in the jar of blood. One of the moving Gu worms suddenly curled up into a ball and lay there quietly, motionless.
If it had not just woken up at that time, and if Yunhai had not had advanced observation instruments, no one would have been able to notice this insignificant black dot.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the little bug in the transparent glass jar. The awakened bug kept moving around in the small space, but always kept a certain distance from the sleeping Yin Gu.
Yun Hai turned to Jun Jingli and asked respectfully, "Your Majesty, how should we deal with these poisonous insects?"
Jun Jingli did not answer his question immediately, but cast his gaze to Qingfeng who was standing beside him, and said slowly: "In your opinion, how should this matter be handled?"
Qingfeng frowned slightly and fell into a brief contemplation. After a while, he raised his head, stared at Yunhai, and asked, "Doctor Yun, from my observation, the blood in this jar has been out of the human body for such a long time, but it still hasn't coagulated. I guess some special method has been used to preserve it, right?"
Yunhai nodded, indicating his agreement with Qingfeng: "Yes! The Taoist priest is indeed very insightful, and his guess is correct."
After a short pause, Qingfeng continued, "The mother Gu is still in the hands of the enemy, and since these Gu worms can survive on this blood, in order to prevent our actions from alerting the enemy, we might as well continue to raise them in the current way for the time being."
Cheng Yuheng stared closely at the squirming worms in the jar, frowned slightly, turned to look at Taoist Qingfeng beside him, and asked with a slightly puzzled tone: "Excuse me Taoist Qingfeng, these poisonous insects have now left my mother's body, so is it possible to replant them into other people's bodies?"
Jun Jingli, who had been standing aside in silence, had already understood his son Jun Mingyu's thoughts. His face changed slightly and he said worriedly: "Yu'er, do you want to..." He didn't finish his words, but the meaning was self-evident.
Jun Mingyu nodded, his eyes firm and resolute, and it was obvious that he had made up his mind to do this.
However, Jun Jingli quickly shook his head to stop him, saying, "Yu'er, you must not do that!"
Jun Mingyu said coldly: "Why not? Is your father feeling sorry for you?"
Hearing this, Jun Jingli couldn't help but raise his foot in anger, ready to kick Jun Mingyu, and angrily scolded: "How can you, a rebellious son, talk to your father?"
Jun Mingyu dodged his father's kick with ease.
Seeing that his son avoided his attack so easily, Jun Jingli became even more furious. He widened his eyes and glared at Jun Mingyu fiercely.
"This is too risky. Not to mention that Changchun Palace is closely guarded by many experts, the Gu Master hiding in the dark is very likely hiding there. Even my Dragon Shadow Guards are afraid of him and dare not rush to spy on him. How can you be so reckless and take the risk?"
Seeing this, Jun Mingyu also realized that his attitude just now might be a bit too radical, causing his father to misunderstand. So he quickly restrained his expression, lowered his posture, respectfully clasped his fists to Jun Jingli, and sincerely admitted his fault: "Father, please calm down. It's all my fault. I was impulsive and misunderstood your good intentions. I hope you won't blame me."
"Humph!"
Jun Jingli snorted angrily, sat down heavily, turned his head to the side, and completely ignored Jun Mingyu beside him. His tense face seemed to be able to squeeze water out, and it was obvious that the anger in his heart had not yet subsided.
Qingfeng, who was standing nearby, could not help but frown upon seeing this, secretly wondering how to ease the tense atmosphere between the father and son.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "It's not a bad idea to give someone a taste of their own medicine, but this time we're dealing with an adult insect. If we want to successfully implant it into the human body, we must have both the Yin and Yang Gu enter at the same time."
Just as Qingfeng finished speaking, a slight noise was heard and the door of the secret room, which had been tightly closed, slowly opened.
Immediately afterwards, a petite figure walked out from inside. It was Yun Duo.
She nodded slightly to Yun Hai, and then turned her gaze to Jun Jingli, Jun Mingyu and others: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, Grandpa Cheng, Taoist Priest, the Queen has woken up, you can go in and visit her."
Upon hearing the news, Jun Jingli stood up without saying anything, took long strides, and rushed into the secret room first. Others followed closely behind him and entered one after another.
After entering the secret room, everyone saw Cheng Shiyin lying quietly on the warm jade-like bed. She was smiling, her beautiful eyes were moving, and she looked at the people who came in with affection.
Jun Jingli walked quickly to the bedside and tightly grasped Cheng Shiyin's slightly pale and slender hand. He was so excited that his body trembled involuntarily. His throat seemed to be blocked by something and he couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Cheng Shiyin gently held Jun Jingli's hand with her backhand, tears sparkling in her eyes, but a very gentle smile still hung on the corners of her mouth. She called out affectionately, "Your Majesty..."
Jun Mingyu held Yun Duo's soft little hand tightly and stood behind Jun Jingli.
At this moment, he had shed his usual frightening cold aura, and replaced it with a gentle gaze like the warm spring sun, gazing affectionately at Cheng Shiyin not far away.
Yun Duo, who was being held by Jun Mingyu, seemed a little shy and embarrassed.
She gently twisted her wrists, trying to break free from Jun Mingyu's strong restraints. She lowered her voice so that only the two of them could hear it: "Cheng Yuheng, let go of my hand first!"
However, Jun Mingyu remained unmoved. Instead, he held Yun Duo's hand even more firmly and responded without disguising, "No!"
Since he did not deliberately lower his voice, these two short and firm words were clearly heard by Cheng Shiyin.
Cheng Shiyin was startled for a moment, then she saw the young couple holding hands tightly together. She smiled slightly, gracefully took out her hand from Jun Jingli's palm, and then stretched it out to Jun Mingyu and Yun Duo, calling softly, "Yu'er, Duo'er, come to me."
Hearing this, Yun Duo suddenly felt ashamed and her cheeks turned red instantly. She was so embarrassed that she wanted to dig a hole in the ground with her toes and crawl into it.
At the same time, Jun Mingyu, who had been holding Yun Duo's hand, behaved very calmly. With a smile on his face, he pulled Yun Duo without hesitation and walked in front of Cheng Shiyin.
When the two approached, Jun Mingyu respectfully bowed to Cheng Shiyin and greeted her, "Mother." Yun Duo, who was standing beside him, bowed a little nervously and said softly, "Empress."
Cheng Shiyin looked at the lively and lovely future daughter-in-law in front of her with loving eyes, and she liked her more and more.
She gently took up one of Yun Duo's hands and patted it tenderly, then turned to look at Jun Mingyu who was standing beside her with a determined look on his face, and said slowly: "Yu'er, since you have already decided on Miss Yun, you must not let her down in the future, and you must treat her wholeheartedly. When my mother recovers, I will go to Yun Mansion in person to propose marriage for you. What do you think of this arrangement?"
"Thank you, Queen Mother!"
Yun Duo was flattered. How could she dare to ask the queen of a country to propose marriage? "Thank you for your kindness, my lady. I dare not trouble you."
"Child, don't be so distant with me. When you become my daughter-in-law, we will be a family."
