Chapter 132 The concubine who died young in the novel "The Emperor Takes His Minister's Wi
Wen Yingchen and Xiao Lanyi reached a cooperation agreement. Although they each had their own ulterior motives, they ultimately joined forces.
They not only rushed back to the capital overnight, but also assigned some manpower to cause trouble for Emperor Kangning, who had not yet returned to the capital.
If Leyan was indeed taken away by Emperor Kangning's men, then whether Emperor Kangning was in the capital or not made a big difference to them.
However, they never expected that when the people they sent to the battlefield were preparing to cause trouble for Emperor Kangning and delay his actions, Emperor Kangning had already returned to the capital long ago.
He simply returned to Beijing quietly, without announcing it to others.
Inside the Wen residence, Liu Chutang was unaware that these formidable enemies she considered would all gather in the capital. She was currently cultivating her relationship with Leyan.
But as she continued to nurture her, she felt that things might have gone a little astray.
"Tangtang~ Tangtang~"
Leyan skipped in from outside, carrying a sword in her arms. Her almond-shaped eyes sparkled. "Tangtang, Nanyi said you're incredibly skilled in martial arts, especially swordsmanship. Can you teach me?"
Looking at Le Yan, who was filled with adoration for her, Liu Chutang fell silent for a moment.
What she wanted was admiration, not worship.
Liu Chutang stared intently into Le Yan's eyes, but still couldn't discern any emotion other than admiration. She couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.
Despite her disappointment, she still took the sword from Leyan's hand and smiled, "Of course I can teach you, but practicing swordsmanship will be very hard. Can you persevere?"
Although she had only been by Le Yan's side for a few days, Liu Chutang already knew her very well.
This is an incredibly lazy girl. She spends most of her time lying down or sitting. Occasionally she'll stand up for a short while, but soon she has to find a place to sit down again.
Originally, Liu Chutang was worried that keeping her by his side all the time and never taking her out would be unacceptable to her.
As it turned out, aside from constantly asking her for storybooks and pestering her to tell him stories, this person never mentioned going out at all.
Liu Chutang even wondered if he would have to urge her three or four times before she would agree to take him out for a stroll.
Considering Le Yan's usual behavior, Liu Chutang firmly believed that her guess was correct.
After regaining her composure, Liu Chutang lowered her eyes to look at Le Yan, who was shorter than her, and waited for her answer with a smile.
Leyan was indeed a little hesitant.
She's an incredibly lazy person; she has all the typical human flaws. Besides laziness, she's also afraid of getting tired, dislikes trouble, and doesn't want to endure hardship. She'd rather lie down than sit, and rather sit than stand...
But she also wanted to learn something.
Once she's learned it, it's hers. Who knows how many more worlds she'll experience in the future? It's always good to learn more.
Just like in the first world, she had so many domineering CEOs in her family, each of whom taught her something step by step, and in the second world, she smoothly embarked on the path of becoming a domineering CEO herself.
Now that she has come to an ancient world where martial arts exist, if she can learn a couple of skills, she will definitely benefit greatly in the future.
Thinking about it, Le Yan immediately became serious and nodded solemnly, "I'm not afraid of hard work, I want to learn."
She grabbed Liu Chutang's hand and shook it, speaking softly, "Tangtang, please teach me~"
If she weren't afraid of insects and didn't want to easily reveal what she knew, she would have grabbed Liu Chutang and begged her to teach her Gu techniques.
Le Yan felt a pang of regret, but her gaze remained intense as she looked at Liu Chutang.
Unable to withstand her gaze, Liu Chutang had no choice but to nod helplessly: "Okay, I'll teach you."
"Then you can't give up halfway."
It would be good to teach her some self-defense skills, so that even if none of them were around her, she wouldn't be hurt.
After much deliberation, Liu Chutang began teaching Le Yan martial arts.
However, Le Yan is now sixteen years old, and her bones and other structures have already taken shape. It is not possible to teach her like a young child. Therefore, Liu Chutang can only design a new training program for her, striving to help her lay a foundation in a simpler way.
Therefore, Liu Chutang purchased a lot of medicinal herbs, all of which were used to make medicinal baths for Leyan.
With daily training, supplements, and dietary therapy, Leyan gradually became stronger and healthier, and her complexion became rosy.
Even my long-awaited period finally arrived.
That day, as Leyan was diligently practicing her horse stance, she suddenly had a bad feeling.
She struggled to her feet, feeling a familiar sensation. Her eyes darted around for a moment before she rushed from the courtyard into the house.
She was so fast that Liu Chutang didn't even have time to catch her before she was locked out of the door.
"Yan Yan? What's wrong?"
Liu Chutang was worried and quickly knocked on the door.
When she heard no response from inside, her eyebrows furrowed instantly.
As she prepared to shout again and break down the door, she caught a faint whiff of blood before she could move.
Liu Chutang froze on the spot, her hand on the door tightening, her eyes thoughtful.
She was certain that Le Yan was not injured, so where did the smell of blood come from?
After a moment of contemplation, Liu Chutang had a flash of inspiration and immediately understood.
It's my period!
She couldn't hide her joy, after all, Leyan had lived a very difficult sixteen years, and was physically weak, so much so that most girls would start menstruating at the age of thirteen or fourteen, but Leyan had never started menstruating by the time she was sixteen.
Now that her period has finally returned, it means that Leyan's body has become healthy again, and all the care she has given her these past few days has been worthwhile.
The more she thought about it, the better it seemed. Liu Chutang glanced at the closed door, then quickly instructed her servants to prepare hot water and menstrual pads. She then picked up the items and knocked on the door.
"Yan Yan, open the door and let me in. I know what's wrong with you. Don't be afraid."
Liu Chutang's eyes were filled with worry. She felt that this was Leyan's first time menstruating, and that she was afraid and uneasy, which was why she had locked herself in the room.
But in reality, Leyan didn't have the strength to open the door at this point.
Her body used to be in very poor condition, so much so that even though she has started to regain her health through medication and dietary supplements, there are still many deficiencies within her.
Her period finally arrived, which could be considered a good thing, but for her, it came with the unbearable torment of menstrual cramps.
Having lived three lifetimes, this is the first time Leyan has faced the reality of menstrual cramps.
The pain was so intense that she almost wanted to bang her head on the ground and just faint.
She could no longer hear Liu Chutang's voice outside the door. Her face was pale, and she was weak all over. She could only curl up and lie on the soft couch with difficulty.
Liu Chutang, who was outside the door, did not hear her response and became anxious, so she simply broke down the door and entered.
The first thing I saw was Le Yan, her breath faint and curled up on the couch, with a strong smell of blood all around her nose.
Liu Chutang immediately understood what was going on, turned around and closed the door, and hurriedly ran to Leyan's side.
With a look of heartache, Liu Chutang tidied her up before carrying the nearly unconscious Le Yan to the bed. She placed the prepared hot water bottle tightly on Le Yan's abdomen and then pulled the blanket over her.
Looking at his pale face and sweat-drenched hair, Liu Chutang felt both heartache and anger.
Those damned Qian family members, how dare they!
If Emperor Kangning hadn't killed the Qian family early on, Liu Chutang would definitely have gone and killed them.
Even now, she has an urge to desecrate a corpse.
—If the body can be found.
