C155 (1/2)

Inside the large pepper room, candles were burning, lighting up this quiet and desolate room.

General Li, who was standing outside the door, could only helplessly shake his head as he heard the sounds of people crying that could not be heard.

As long as the Crown Prince caused trouble, the emperor would come here to chat with the empress. However, every time, a person would come out with red eyes.

Who said that men didn't shed tears easily, it was just that they weren't hurt.

The emperor may not be a very good emperor, but he must be a very good father and husband.

They spent the night in the cold wind, and the lights of the Hall of the Pepper were on for the night.

Seven days later, Qing Zi, a medical woman, broke the imperial rankings and went into the palace alone to cure the Crown Prince's poison.

Imperial Physician Gao, who was led by Imperial Physician Gu, heard the news long ago. He stood guard at the eastern palace gates, waiting for the Crown Prince to wake up.

Actually, they also wanted to see how someone who had already been killed had been saved and brought back from the dead.

If he failed, then the imperial physician's face would still be there. If they succeeded, they could also steal some medical skills. If they studied more in the future, it would definitely be a great achievement.

However, just as they reached the door, they were blocked by the imperial guards, leaving only Wen Zhiran to help.

This angered all the imperial physicians, but they had no choice.

As the sun set in the west, the closed doors of Weiyang Palace finally opened. Wen Ziran walked out happily to inform everyone that the Crown Prince had woken up.

When Nangong Xuanyi heard this news, he threw down his imperial reports and rushed to Weiyang Palace.

”Xuan'er, how do you feel?”

Nangong Xuanyi carefully rubbed his head and asked in a small voice.

The unconcealable excitement in his voice was like picking up a treasure.

”Thanks to you, I won't die yet!”

Nangong Xuan rolled his eyes, lazily taking his hand away, speaking indifferently.

After saying that, he closed his eyes tightly, and helplessly shook his head as he heard the voices of the people congratulating to his royal father.

After a long time, he suddenly sat up on the bed, a piercing headache coming his way. He lowered his head and felt as if his chest had been cut open. A heart-wrenching pain filled his nerves.

Thinking about how Bai Zhixi's life and death was uncertain, he couldn't calm down.

She was his only sister, and he would never let anyone hurt her.

He gritted his teeth as he struggled to stretch out his foot. Beads of sweat dripped down one by one, wetting his white undergarment.

After a while, the sweat started dripping down even more violently, like raindrops falling to the ground and forming whirlpools.

With a ”peng” sound, he finally could not hold on any longer and fell onto the ground. He originally wanted to get up, but his entire body became weak. No matter how he struggled, he was unable to get up.

”What are you doing?”

Suddenly, a female roar could be heard from the top of his head. It carried an irresistible force.

Nangong Xuan's heart sank as he suddenly raised his head. He wanted to see who in this palace would dare to speak like this after eating the heart of a leopard.

But the moment he raised his head, he was stunned.

He couldn't even remember how he was lying in bed.

He looked at the devastatingly beautiful woman in front of him. At this moment, she was carefully holding a bowl of black medicine in front of his mouth. The pair of talkative eyes were staring at him, as if she hoped he would feel like drinking it.

However, Nangong Xuan actually closed his eyes, and waited for the beauty to feed him the medicine.

In the next second, he had already given up all hope. The woman in front of him was definitely sent by the heavens to torture him.

Before he could even react, the woman had pointed at his acupoints. He could clearly see the ice in her eyes that was colder than snow and ice. At this moment, it was stabbing into every part of his body.

Not long after, his mouth was savagely drunk by the woman. The next second, a strong bitterness filled his mouth and even his nose was not spared.

The medicinal juice that went wrong baptized every corner of his stomach. The burning pain made his stomach feel extremely uncomfortable.

She wanted to say something, but no sound came out. Her face immediately flushed red as she tightly held onto Qing Zaiyi, asking her to save her.

Just as he was about to suffocate, the girl in front of him hit his back with her palm. She casually tapped on his back a few times before recovering.

”You … Something was wrong! Want to murder! ”Cough, cough …”

After waiting for the rough hands on his mouth to loosen up, Nangong Xuan finally managed to get a hold of his breath and took a big gulp of air. Earlier, he really felt the aura of death.

Not long later, Nangong Xuan's continuous cursing sounded out in the large Weiyang Palace, bringing about a trace of the aura of a ruffian, causing maidservant who was guarding the door to laugh out loud.
