Chapter 488: 248 End (Second Update)

Xiao Liulang took another look at Liu Yisheng — aside from his pale complexion, his facial features were gracefully handsome, his lips red and teeth white. His appearance was truly attractive.

So, weren’t An County Prince and Liu Yisheng enough?

Xiao Liulang’s eyes suddenly turned cold.

Liu Yisheng: “…”

Minmin’s injuries were quite severe. The blow he had suffered almost broke his spine, and although his spine was saved, his spleen had ruptured.

After Xiao Jingkong fell asleep in Gu Jiao’s arms, Gu Jiao put him on the bed, pulled the blanket over him, and went to the next room to check on Minmin.

Minmin was also asleep.

The Princess Consort of Yu’s eyes were red and swollen. Since Minmin told her that he found his little brother and asked her not to cry, her tears had not stopped.

It was pain, guilt, but also a sense of satisfaction and happiness from being deeply loved.

The pain of losing her son seemed no longer important. Looking at this child who had almost lost his life for her, she suddenly felt it was the greatest honor of her life to be his mother.

“Miss Gu, thank you so much this time… Thank you for saving Minmin again…” The Princess Consort of Yu Wang stood up to thank Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao stopped her from bowing, and shook her head lightly: “You don’t need to thank me, the person who truly saved him is you.”

During Minmin’s surgery, he had a critical condition with heavy bleeding, requiring an urgent blood transfusion.

Unfortunately, Minmin’s blood type turned out to be a very rare one, like the panda’s blood type. No one in the room had a matching blood type other than the Princess Consort of Yu.

The Princess Consort of Yu gave Minmin a second life.

Gu Jiao said seriously: “From now on, your blood also flows within him.”

The Princess Consort of Yu held back her sobs, nodded, leaned down and touched Minmin’s forehead with her own. Two hot tears fell.

Even without this, he would always be her son.

…

Minmin was recovering from his injuries in Gu Jiao’s courtyard.

After Xiao Jingkong was dismissed from school, he visited the medical hall to accompany Minmin. Clearly, the two of them, who had experienced hardships together had become true brothers.

Even though Xiao Jingkong had found out that he was not Minmin’s real brother, it didn’t hinder the flourishing comradeship between them.

Minmin was fluent in the language of Zhan Country, while Xiao Jingkong’s language of Liang Country needed some improvement. Minmin often tutored him.

With a language environment, Xiao Jingkong’s language of Liang Country greatly improved.

One day, Xiao Jingkong accompanied Minmin outside in the courtyard to soak up the sun.

Minmin suddenly asked Xiao Jingkong, “I want to be a general in the future, what about you?”

Xiao Jingkong gave it some thought, and seriously replied, “I want to study to become the top scholar!”

Minmin seemed disappointed, “It would be great if you also want to be a general. If our two countries go to war in the future, I’ll order my troops to retreat 30 miles for your sake!”

Xiao Jingkong let himself be led astray by those words, picturing himself leading troops, then slapped his chest and said, “Then I won’t kill your soldiers!”

Time passed and it was April. Minmin’s injuries were gradually healing, and the negotiations between the two countries were coming to an end.

Although the Prince of Yu no longer demanded the child, he didn’t take the glass technology back, and instead treated it as an equivalent exchange with the Zhan Country.

As for the unilateral trade, there was not much room for compromise. Kindness is kindness, politics is politics. After all, Gu Jiao’s rescue was a personal act, unrelated to the court.

The Prince of Yu was an excellent politician, he definitely wouldn’t make rash decisions out of emotion. The glass technology was already his biggest concession, even that decision was made without prior consent, he’d be scolded by his king when he returned.

Honestly, the emperor was quite surprised at this outcome. It was unquestionable that Liang Country had come to cut off a piece of meat, but compared to the past when they exchanged a water diversion technology for three large and small mines in the Zhan Country, they were quite lenient this year.

The world was divided into six, Yan Country, Liang Country, and Jin Country were the superior countries, while Zhan Country, Chen Country, and Zhao Country were the inferior ones. There was also another Tujue, but the six countries do not recognize it as a country.

In recent years, Chen Country had been getting on well with Jin Country and relations with the other countries were not too bad either. Zhan Country couldn’t break off their relationship with Liang Country, otherwise it would become isolated.

When the first half of April ended, the visits of the Liang Country envoys to the capital city also ended.

The emperor officiated the farewell ceremony for the envoys of Liang Country at Jinluan Hall in person, after which the crown prince and Marquis Xuanping escorted the envoys of Liang Country out of the capital city.

Before departure, Minmin made a trip to the medical hall.

His stitches had been removed. Although he couldn’t bounce around, his recovery was quick and he had no trouble moving around.

He came to bid farewell to his little brother.

“In the future, if you go to Liang Country, remember to come to the Prince of Yu’s residence to find me. I’ll treat you to some delicious food!”
