My Princess and Crown Prince Are Revived
Chapter 119 Snow Ganoderma Found

Chapter 119: Chapter 119 Snow Ganoderma Found

"Princess Consort actually tracked me."

Before Chu Baihan turned to search for the door, she said these cold words to Yan Lin.

It was said that aside from the fifth prince, each prince had gone to offer prayers to the heavens. Yan Lin being here surely meant he had used some means.

"The key is mine, I merely followed you here to check," Yan Lin replied calmly.

His words sent a chill flashing through Chu Baihan’s eyes.

She turned her head back, her piercing gaze fixed on him, "Prince Yan, are you trying to stop me?"

She indeed came to the National Treasury to take something!

But as the esteemed Princess from Nanduan Kingdom, what could she possibly lack?

Yan Lin slightly furrowed his brow, but his tone was much gentler.

"Since I give you the key, I do not intend to stop you."

Chu Baihan withdrew her gaze, her expression unreadable.

She now trusted no one, and no one could stop her from obtaining the Snow Ganoderma to save Xixi.

"Strange, I clearly saw a stone gate here earlier; how could it have disappeared?"

Turning around, Chu Baihan focused again on her task, but as she walked to the stone wall on the right side and searched, regardless of how hard she hit, she couldn’t find any trace of the stone gate.

Could this be ghostly?

Her face was solemn.

"What exactly are you trying to find? What is so important that it brought you down here? Also, how did you open the topmost door earlier?" Yan Lin asked her, his tone imbued with a hint of puzzlement.

"What do you mean, Prince Yan, is the door above that hard to open?" Chu Baihan’s eyelid twitched slightly, but she still forcefully maintained her composure.

"The main door of the National Treasury can be opened with a key. The Emperor, I, the Crown Prince, the Ministry of Revenue, and even the Imperial Grandmother all have keys. Only this place can be opened by the Emperor alone."

Yan Lin’s gaze remained fixed on her, as if trying to discern something from her face.

Only the Emperor could open it?

Why then could her mother’s hairpin open it?

Chu Baihan was also deeply puzzled.

But her expression remained as calm as ever.

She spoke quietly, "This princess once lived alone in Jiangnan for many years, eking out a living. What haven’t I done? Prying open a door is not difficult."

Was it really so?

Although her face revealed nothing unusual, Yan Lin knew very well that she was not telling the truth.

However, he also did not wish to press her, and quickly changed the topic, "Although I have never been to this place, if you have a need, just say it, and I will help you."

Hearing his words, Chu Baihan knew the situation was special and could not afford her being overly delicate.

"I saw a stone gate here earlier, but it has disappeared, and I need to find it," she said earnestly.

"The air down here has a disorienting effect, are you sure you didn’t see wrongly?" Yan Lin inspected the stone wall but saw no door, and then turned back, asking Chu Baihan with a peculiar tone.

He also felt there was something odd about the smell?

Chu Baihan exhaled sharply, shaking her head seriously.

"No, at the moment I saw the stone gate, I was sure I was lucid."

Unconvinced, Chu Baihan began searching the surroundings again.

But as she neared the sarcophagus, her steps froze, and her complexion completely changed.

Because the sarcophagus was utterly empty, there was nothing inside.

Yet, just before she was almost in danger earlier, it seemed as if a pair of eyes were watching her.

She looked around warily, her expression serious.

This sight of her, caught by Yan Lin, also deepened the color in his eyes.

Could there indeed be something odd here?

Chu Baihan clenched her fists, and after walking a circle inside the chamber, suddenly unknowingly stepped on a mechanism.

With a ’thunderous’ boom, the wall that had been smooth suddenly revealed a door.

A powerful suction force hit them like a vortex, pulling them inside.

Chu Baihan wanted to use her Inner Strength to resist, but she found she couldn’t muster any at all.

At a critical moment, an arm circled her waist, protecting her in its embrace.

Then came a massive impact.

But she was shielded in someone’s arms, and not seriously injured.

Her head buzzing, she vigorously shook her head.

When she came to, she found herself in Yan Lin’s arms.

And they were now in a sealed space.

This place, inexplicably, had snow...

A chill hit her, and she could only use her Inner Strength to resist the cold.

"Cough..."

Suddenly, Yan Lin, who was holding him, coughed painfully.

She looked over and noticed that the area around his chest was soaked with fresh blood.

His wound must have split open again.

"Don’t move!"

Chu Baihan spoke sternly as she stopped Yan Lin, who was about to move.

With her other hand, she tore open the clothing on his chest.

Indeed, the wound had truly burst open, and it was very severe.

He had used his Inner Strength outside and had endured such a heavy impact, it was no wonder the wound had split open!

"I have never seen anyone as careless with their own body as you!"

While Chu Baihan swiftly stopped the bleeding with a silver needle, she clenched her teeth and scolded him.

However, the Prince, upon hearing her words, did not get angry; instead, a clear curve formed on his thin lips.

"Is the Princess Consort showing concern for me?"

His shameless remark made Chu Baihan’s hands pause.

She really wanted to stab him to death.

But considering what he had done just before, and unable to act so ungratefully, she had to suppress her emotions.

"You’re not allowed to use your Inner Strength anymore, or even I won’t be able to save you," Chu Baihan said through clenched teeth.

"Okay."

After being scolded, Yan Lin actually smiled contentedly.

She had scolded him, which proved she still cared about him, didn’t it?

His smile was so radiant that Chu Baihan felt uncomfortable looking at it, and she awkwardly stood up, then whispered, "Let me see what’s going on here."

When she got up, she realized that the snow had reached her calves.

It was still summer outside, and this was the capital city—how could there be snow?

In that instant, she truly felt that the National Treasury of Yan Country was bizarre.

Wait, that was...

All of a sudden, she spotted a blooming flower not far away.

Snow Ganoderma, it was Snow Ganoderma!

After years of searching for Snow Ganoderma and consulting many books and visiting many places, she naturally recognized it instantly.

That’s right, she had heard that when Snow Ganoderma was plucked, it hadn’t withered.

If placed in an environment similar to a snowy mountain, it could bloom continually.

A blooming Snow Ganoderma was naturally more useful than one that was withered and dried up.

Chu Baihan’s eyes reddened.

No wonder, no wonder there was snow here.

It must have been the Imperial Family of Yan Country that had created this to protect the Snow Ganoderma.

Though she didn’t know how it had been done, she no longer cared that much now.

She walked quickly over and carefully plucked the Snow Ganoderma.

Perhaps because it was still very cold here, the Snow Ganoderma hadn’t withered and continued to bloom in her hands.

Feeling the chill in her hands, Chu Baihan at that moment truly realized that Xixi’s life was in her hands.

"So, you were after the Snow Ganoderma."

Just then, Yan Lin’s deep voice sounded behind her.

She felt tense and quickly turned around to watch him warily.

Noticing the vigilance in her eyes, Yan Lin felt heartache.

She was actually so guarded against him.

Although Chu Baihan knew that her actions could potentially dishearten someone, especially since Yan Lin had just saved her,

But this was Xixi’s life, and she could not allow any mistakes!

"I had only heard that there was a Snow Ganoderma in the possession of the Imperial Family, I never expected it to actually exist," Yan Lin said softly, lowering his eyes.

It was said that Snow Ganoderma could bring people back from the brink of death and cure all poisons.

However, when his eyes had been in that condition years ago, his father had never mentioned Snow Ganoderma.

Indeed, in his father’s eyes, he was not worthy of using it.

"Can you tell me what you intend to do with it?" Yan Lin looked at Chu Baihan with a complex expression, eager for an answer.

Chu Baihan pursed her lips, remaining silent.

"Alright, let me phrase it differently, do you intend to use this Snow Ganoderma to save someone?"

"Yes," Chu Baihan nodded slightly.

"Is that person very important to you?" Yan Lin asked toughly, clenching his fists.

"Yes, he is someone I would sacrifice my life to protect," Chu Baihan murmured with unwavering determination in her voice.

Is he someone she would sacrifice her life to protect?

Hearing this answer, Yan Lin felt a suffocating sensation in his chest.
