If there ever was a moment where Gu Yun would be grateful to Li Feng in this life, it was the next day when he heard that Li Feng had kept Chang Geng in the palace.

There was no greater relief to him. He wished he could write a request to the Emperor to open a single room next to the Warm Pavilion for the prince, for him to stay there for good and never come out.

On the battlefield, injuries were common, Gu Yun had long been accustomed to them. Being able to wake up meant it already passed the most dangerous stage. After another day in bed, he already had enough strength to speak and greet guests.

The first guest he met with was Shen Yi.

Due to Chen Qing Xu refusing to let Gu Yun take the medicine, he could only wear his liuli glass in a deaf and blind state, beginning the conversation with this Shen by shouting and sign language.

The two had been separated for more than half a year. When seeing the other off, they were still in high spirits. When they reunited, one of them was lying on the bed, covered in bandages resembling a mummy, could breathe in but could not breathe out. The other straying, wasting away for a few months, withered like an old turnip planted in the countryside.

Old turnip Shen Yi loudly expressed his sentiments towards Gu Yun: "We all thought we would have to come collect your body. We did not expect to see a Marquis of Order who could still breathe! Marshal, you did not die even at the face of great catastrophe, this truly is a sign of future blessing!"

Gu Yun's face was full of saliva from his 'expressing', and his anger immediately arose. He could not see where his 'future blessing' was. Regret already piled up to a basketful, he said angrily: "You still have the face to mention that? Goddamnit, those foreigners landed in Da Gu Port for more than a month, burning the palace in the western suburb like a stove. Where did your good-for-nothing self disappear to? Even a pile of shit had already cooled!"

Shen Yi: "..."

Gu Yun: "Get away, stay away from me. Is your mouth broken? Spraying all over my face!"
