Towards that kind of question, Nan Hua naturally didn't answer. She proceeded to take care of the poison by purging it out. It was not exactly a deadly poison and with a few stabs of her needles to some of the accupoint, she was done.
The head guard was speechless when he found out that he could move again. The skill that Nan Hua showed was totally like an experienced doctor.
"Are you sure you're just a guard?"
Nan Hua walked to Mu Fei Xin and lowered her eyes. "Please pardon my rudeness, Your Highness."
"It's fine."
Since Nan Hua lowered her voice, she sounded more like a boy. This was done purposely because Nan Hua didn't want these people to look down on her. With the great prejudice against female in this era, there were times when it was better for her to pose as a male instead.
It was not like she was staying at the Capital City and played the battle of words with those noble ladies.
Mu Fei Xin felt better after the poison was purged. However, she still felt a bit nauseated when she saw the black blood that was forced out from the tip of her finger. With her nerve no longer as tense as before, she felt calmer instead.
"It's your turn, Your Highness."
Prince Yang Lu nodded. He glanced at the head guard. "Do you have any decent plan to push the blame to Hai Family?"
"Your Highness, if we can save the officials and also their children, they will more likely to follow what we ask them to do. Besides, if we were to use the Hai Family wealth to entice them, they might be able to give testimonies that's necessary for us." The head guard cupped his fist.
"Heh." Prince Yang Lu chuckled. "That might be a good idea."
This time, Nan Hua had finished the treatment. She moved to the other soldiers belonged to Prince Yang Lu and treated them as fast as possible. Even though it was far, she could already hear the sound of battle starting from a distance.
She knew, Commander Hai must have already started to attack. Not to mention, Nan Luo would be doing his move.
'The Dark Moon should be retreating by now.'
"Are you not worried that we'll attack you, Nan?" Prince Yang Lu asked when he saw how calm Nan Hua was. He couldn't understand why someone like him would even treat them so well.
"You can't kill me."
The sentence was uttered in an unhurried tone. To those who heard it, the first thought they have would be: 'how arrogant.' But when they thought about it deeply, they would know that it was also the truth.
Based on the skill alone, it was very likely that they would die if they tried to go against Nan Hua.
And they were also exhausted.
Rather than wasting their energy to do such pointless things, it would be better for them to plan how they should do this to escape with their life intact.
"The treatment is done."
Nan Hua stood up and looked at Prince Yang Lu. "I'll leave the officials to you."
