After encountering Young Xiao Junci and the others, Prince Wu received the news and went to meet the penalty delegation.

On the way, feeling unwell, Prince Wu suggested returning to Prince Shun's Mansion first.

Feigning concern, the Crown Prince suggested that if Prince Wu was feeling ill and unfit to attend the Competition Among Ten Countries, he would recommend Hua Wushang to replace him.

"Dongfang Yu trusts Hua Wushang greatly. How could I let him have his way?"

Even if Prince Wu was left with a breath, he would not let Hua Wushang replace him.

"Hua Wushang again?"

Feng Bailing also frowned.

Prince Wu had disliked Hua Wushang for some time now, that fellow who always grinned at everyone, winning over all the civil and military officials in the court, clearly no good.

He wasn't fooled; just now Xiaojin returned wearing a large cloak, which she said was lent by Hua Wushang to Feng Bailing, and that cloak, Prince Wu had already ordered to be burned.

"But your health... I fear Dongfang Yu won't let it go easily."

Feng Bailing thought for a moment, pretended to go back to her room, and returned with a bottle of wine in hand.

She handed the wine to Prince Wu.

"This is a medicinal wine I brewed. It replenishes blood and boosts energy, I'm giving it to you."

Feng Bailing felt a pang of loss.

She had really invested heavily this time; the bottle contained the original brew of the Rainbow Five Treasures Brew.

Feng Bailing had three types of wine, one for making money, one for restoring energy was Monkey Wine, and the most precious was the few barrels of Rainbow Five Treasures Brew from Drunken Immortal Inn.

The Five Treasures Brew was hard to come by; Feng Bailing hardly ever drank it herself. She only gave it to Prince Wu purely because of his physical condition.

Usually, Monkey Wine brewed with Spiritual Spring was enough for ordinary martial artists, but Prince Wu was different, his body was very unstable, and even with modern medical knowledge, Feng Bailing could not pinpoint the exact cause of his worsening condition, so she could only use Five Treasures Brew to quickly restore his health.

Prince Wu was somewhat flattered as he took the bottle.

Upon opening the cap, his heart stirred, and he saw a burst of multicolored light illuminate his face.

The room immediately filled with a unique fragrance of wine, a scent that even Prince Wu had never smelled before, like a mix of flowers and fruits.

Moreover, just by smelling it, the Wen Energy within him rapidly restored.

Unlike Gang Qi, which could be quickly restored by meditating, the recovery of Wen Energy usually took much longer.

This wine could restore both Gang Qi and Wen Energy, for this alone, the wine Feng Bailing gave him was even better than the last time she gave wine to Dongfang Lianhua.

He knew that in Feng Bailing's heart, he was also very important.

With a lightened heart, Prince Wu's heterochromatic eyes sparkled radiantly.

If Feng Bailing knew of Prince Wu's self-admiring mindset at this moment, she would undoubtedly roll her eyes.

In her heart, Dongfang Lianhua was indeed more important than Prince Wu, the reason she didn't directly give Dongfang Lianhua the Rainbow Five Treasures Brew was because at that time, Dongfang Lianhua was just an ordinary person, unable to directly use such a divine wine as Five Treasures Brew.

Prince Wu was different; he possessed the Emperor's aura, and his physical condition was originally very good, so using Five Treasures Brew on him was precisely targeting his needs.

"This wine is medicinal, you can't just drink it any time, only a small glass per day, and you must dilute it with water when you drink."

As Feng Bailing was instructing, Chun Liu hurried in.

"Princess Consort, you should quickly go to the Princess' Mansion. The Princess asked me to tell you that the Beiqi Regent King has come to visit again and wants to stay at the Princess' Mansion; she wants you back quickly to think of a solution."

Feng Bailing immediately became irritable.

"How did he come again?"

Prince Wu raised an eyebrow.

"You should take care of yourself first, I'll go and meet him."

Feng Bailing said, rolling up his sleeves and briskly setting off to find Xiao Junci.

Dugu Wu poured a cup of wine, diluted it with some water, and drank it.

Just after taking a sip, his brows were filled with a look of shock.

The avalanche had consumed a large amount of his Wen Energy, and his body's Wen Energy was already nearly depleted.

But at this moment, that Wen Energy, like wild grass revived by the spring breeze, began to grow again in his limbs and body.

His whole body felt warm, even his nearly numb legs and feet felt it.

"Reporting to Prince, the Crown Prince and Lord Hua are outside asking for an audience."

Dugu Wu, still not done, reluctantly put down the wine cup and stored the wine bottle away.

Hearing the guard's report, his face showed no surprise.

Much like Feng Bailing, Dugu Lu had anticipated that the Crown Prince would not let things rest.

"Prince Wu, seeing that you are unwell, I've brought Wushang to check on you. His medical skills are very good."

The Crown Prince walked in with a smile.

In the air, there seemed to be a scent of wine.

As soon as Hua Wushang entered, he glanced at Dugu Wu's complexion; Dugu Wu was sitting in a wheelchair, his legs covered with a thin blanket.

However, his face was flush with health, which seemed strangely robust?

"Much thanks to the Crown Prince and Lord Hua for their concern for my health. Since Lu Yin and the Princess Consort are both out on business, I'll trouble Lord Hua."

Dugu Wu was welcoming, extending his hand.

Hua Wushang checked Dugu Wu's pulse; Dugu Wu's pulse was strong, there was nothing like a debilitated body.

Hua Wushang said with a smile.

"Prince Wu's health has no major issues."

No major issues?

The Crown Prince's face showed disbelief; he clearly saw Dugu Wu staggering, nearly fainting on the way here.

Without changing his expression, the Crown Prince took out a pot of wine.

"It's good that there's nothing serious. The Crown Princess Consort recently brewed some wine, Dugu, although you and Yan'er have been childhood sweethearts, I think you haven't tried the wine she brewed. This wine is Nolan Wine, which after drinking, can replenish blood and boost energy. Considering your recent weak health, I've brought a bottle for you to try."

Is the Crown Prince here to show off?

But clearly it was Dacang Monkey brewed wine, how did it become something brewed by Nalan Yan'er?

Seeing the Crown Prince's proud appearance, he presented a pot of wine.

Nalan Yan'er brought back Monkey Wine, yet claimed it was wine she brewed earlier.

The Crown Prince took a few sips and was pleasantly surprised, constantly praising Nalan Yan'er.

He brought Hua Wushang to see Dugu Wu and did not want to come empty-handed, so he specially brought some wine.

Seeing Dugu Wu smell the wine and appear somewhat dazed, he guessed that Dugu Wu must be feeling envious and jealous, reminiscing about the good times he and Nalan Yan'er once had.

In fact, Dugu Wu just glanced at the wine.

The Nalan Yan'er Dugu Wu knew would never touch spring water with her ten fingers, let alone do dirty and tiring tasks like brewing wine, and she definitely wouldn't claim she had made it… The wine looked good and was indeed fragrant, but compared to the wine Feng Bailing just gave him, it was merely passable.

This wine, even compared to the pot Feng Bailing gave Dongfang Lianhua, fell short.

Dugu Wu wondered, if it was all brewed by monkeys, why was there a difference?
