Lianer had a fever.

The morning of the next day, when Tao Er punctually came over to help Lianer dress up as usual, she discovered that Lianer had not woken up yet.

Thinking that perhaps she was too tired to wake up in time, but after waiting for a while, Lianer finally noticed the problem.

She walked in and saw from afar that Lianer was still lying on the bed quietly. The blanket on her body had already fallen to the side.

Tao Er quickly walked over and realised that Lianer's face was extremely red. She extended her hand out and immediately pulled it back in fear.

"Crap, why is it so hot?"

She pulled up the quilt and quickly ran outside.

Afraid that the Lateral Consort would have something to blame him, Lianer felt that she had already used all of her strength.

It wasn't until the doctor said, "Miss only has a cold, I've already prescribed the medicine and it will quickly heal." She relaxed after that.

Not long after sending the doctor off, Gong Ming appeared.

"Your Highness."

"What's going on?"

The smell of the medicine in the room was really unpleasant, luckily Gong Ming had been immune to it at Qian Li's place recently.

"It's all your fault, your servant didn't take good care of master."

"Indeed, he deserves to be punished."

"My prince, your servant …"

The moment Tao Er finished speaking, she was caught by the Lianer who had just woken up and was still in a very weak state, "Your Highness, please don't blame Lianer. It was I who accidentally kicked the blanket away when I was sleeping, and for some reason, it suddenly changed. No wonder Doll. "

Gong Ming looked as though he was thinking about it, and accepted Lianer's suggestion after a moment: "Lianer, you are always so kind, fine, Tao Er is your personal servant, if I were to punish her, the one who would be sad would be you."

After Lianer heard this, she seemed to finally be relieved. "Many thanks, Your Highness."

"However, what Tao Er said just now reminded Ben Wang that the people in your courtyard are truly too few."

Immediately after, without giving Lianer the chance to reject, Gong Ming directly ordered Tao Er: "It has been hard for you to take care of Lateral Consort by yourself, it is inevitable that you will be negligent. How about this, you go and find the butler to choose a few smart maids and bring them over to help you take care of your master, but, if you still can't take care of your master after there is a lot of people, next time, this king will really punish you."

"Prince, I don't have to …"

"Hurry up and go."

Gong Ming still did not give Lianer a chance to speak, and directly instructed Tao'er.

Tao Er immediately came back to her senses, looking very excited.

Prince, are you starting to think highly of her master?

"Yes." "Thank you, Your Highness."

After Tao Er excitedly left, only Gong Ming and Lianer remained in the room.

The atmosphere was a little tense, and Lianer seemed to be very nervous as she struggled to get up.

"If you are sick, you need to lie down properly. What do you want? Tell This King that This King will help you."

Lianer shook her head, her face as red as an apple.

"Are you nervous?"

As if he understood her awkwardness, Gong Ming asked directly.

Lianer did not dare to look at Gong Ming, and after hearing what she said, her ears became even redder, "My prince, I …"

"If you truly feel afraid or do not wish to see This King, This King will leave now."

After saying that, Gong Ming really stood up, but his arm was tightly grabbed by Lianer, causing her to look a little haggard, but his alluring expression became even more obvious.

Being sick, she seemed to pity herself even more, and while holding onto Gong Ming's hand, she clearly didn't have any strength left, but she still held onto him extremely seriously. "My prince, this humble one doesn't have that kind of intention, this humble one … "This humble one has always wanted to see Your Highness. Even if … even if you don't do anything, you still …"

These words were within expectations, so Gong Ming did not react to it. Instead, when Lianer saw that he did not react, he thought that she had said something wrong.

"Lianer knows that it's a bit excessive to say this, and this is indeed Lianer's true thoughts. If Your Highness doesn't like it, then Lianer can forget about it in the future. However, can I plead Your Highness to accompany Lianer for a while longer?"

As if worried that Gong Ming would refuse, Lianer lowered her voice, "Really, just for a moment, Lianer is not greedy in the slightest, but is just very afraid of staying by herself. As long as, as long as Tao Er comes back, the Prince can leave at any time, and Lianer will definitely not stop her …"

She seemed to be very sick, and her voice was weak. Her pale lips made people's hearts ache.

"This King has neglected this."

"Hmm?"

Why did Gong Ming suddenly say these words that confused Lianer?

What was he negligent about?

Did he not blame himself for his words?

"This King has not only neglected your feelings, but also neglected to take care of you." After saying that, Gong Ming turned around and turned around with his hand on Lianer's hand. "Don't worry, I will accompany you here all day, if you don't leave then."

The sudden change caused Lianer to be extremely shocked.

She stared at Gong Ming blankly, as if she had forgotten what she was going to say and do next.

"Prince …"

"What kind of hobbies does Lianer have usually? This prince knows that you don't like the liveliness. If it wasn't for the wangfei calling you, you would have liked to stay in the courtyard and not go out for so long. Do you feel bored? "

While speaking, his hand had already been retracted, and the temperature of Gong Ming still remained in his palm. Lianer somewhat dejectedly retracted his hand.

His heart was not as empty as before, because this time, Gong Ming did not leave immediately.

And in his memories, this was the first time Gong Ming had ever held his hand, right?

She secretly rejoiced in her heart as she looked at Gong Ming and replied in an extremely serious tone.

"Lianer has very few hobbies, she would usually stay here to draw and embroider.

"Painting?"

Gong Ming was a little surprised, but he couldn't help but become shy again, "Yes. "It's just that my ability is so low that I can't even draw a painting."

"Can This King see it?"

Lianer felt that the heavens must have heard her prayers yesterday, if not why would Gong Ming suddenly notice him today.

And she was always doing something that surprised her but also made her feel absolutely happy?

She struggled to get up. "I'll show it to Your Highness."

"No, just lie down if your body isn't well. Tell This King where you are and This King will go take a look."

With that said, Lianer could no longer say anything, "It's in the next room."

Gong Ming nodded, and once again instructed Lianer to rest properly before turning around and going next door.

He had to admit that the moment he opened the door, he was shocked.

Initially, he only wanted to look at these paintings as an excuse to not be alone with Lianer. However, he didn't expect that the things he saw after opening them would make him feel so embarrassed.

These paintings were all drawn by the Empress one after another. From the first day that the Empress entered the Prince's estate to now, the Empress has lived in this courtyard for many days, and the number of paintings there has increased to several times. Even now, there are a total of a thousand paintings.

Hearing someone speak behind him, Gong Ming turned around and saw Tao Er, who had already returned, supporting Qian Li as she stood behind him.

"Didn't I tell you to lie down? Why did you still get up?"

Gong Ming went over and personally took Lianer from Tao Er's hands.

The two of them supported each other as they walked inside.

"It's not really a serious illness, just a slight chill. It'll be fine after I drink the medicine."

"This is …"

It was not good to keep changing the topic, so Gong Ming decided to change the topic, "This is …"

Lianer followed his finger and saw that it was a slightly yellowish painting.

In the picture, Gong Ming was standing under the peach tree looking into the distance. He was dressed in black which made him look extremely depressed.

Of course, this also included the matter of me giving you food. At that time, Lianer even tried to get to know the prince, but she was still unable to understand where the melancholy in the prince's eyes came from. However, from that time onwards, Lianer had already fallen in love with his master, and swore that she would protect his master well throughout her entire life. "

"It wasn't until a long time later that Lianer found out that it was the day of the royal Mother Consort's sacrifice."

A hint of emotion flashed past Gong Ming's eyes. Lianer could not understand and could not guess, but she guessed that she had said something that she shouldn't have said to make Gong Ming sad.
