It was warm, not very hot, but very bitter. The bitter tongue felt somewhat numb. Then he drank a second spoonful of medicine and drank half of it in succession. His tongue was already numb from the pain.
Xuanyuan Chen helped Xie Qingrong lie down. Because of the wound on his back, he could only lie on his stomach and comfort him: "The wound on your back has not healed yet. In the next few days, you can only lie on the ground and sleep.
"I'm not the kind of person who doesn't know how to repay favors. If there's anything I can do to help in the future, feel free to ask." Xie Qingrong frowned, as if she was thinking about something, and asked a moment later: "This attack shouldn't be a coincidence, right?"
How could he look mature and steady? He was simply a scoundrel.
Xuanyuan Chen did not expect Xie Qingrong to use the reason that he had kicked Lin Mu out to chase him away. He pursed his lips and his phoenix-like eyes slightly raised. His usually indifferent expression now looked a little demonic as the pale pink thin lip lightly opened its mouth. "I just pulled back the wangfei from the gates of hell and she's already so heartless towards me."
Xie Qingrong endured it, but she still couldn't hold it in. She rolled her eyes and impatiently said: "I still haven't passed the gates, moreover, it's not certain if I'll be able to marry into the Duke Palaces."
A trace of anger flashed past Xuanyuan Chen's eyes. With a somewhat gloomy expression, he calmly said. "If you aren't marrying this duke, who else can you marry?"
"There are a lot of people who can marry." Xie Qingrong retorted.
Xuanyuan Chen understood that Xie Qingrong was a patient and was not willing to argue with her.
Even though he was so angry that his entire body was emitting chilliness, he still smiled faintly and said, "Princess, you should rest well today. This King will come see you next time." With that, he flicked his sleeve and left.
Walking out of the house and looking at the many lights in the house, Xuanyuan Chen revealed a meaningful smile.
Little fellow, there's a lot of time in the future.
After watching Xuanyuan Chen leave, Xie Qingrong moved her shoulder, and accidentally pulled the wound on her back, "Hiss —" She let out an extremely soft moan of pain.
At this time, Nuan Xiang and Wen Yu came in to serve Xie Qingrong.
Warm jade had soaked the kernels in hot water to help Xie Qingrong clean her face.
As Nuan Xiang sat on the leg, she praised Xuanyuan Chen, "Miss, it's all thanks to Prince Chen today. If it wasn't for Prince Chen who saved me, I'm afraid I would never be able to see Miss again. " As she spoke, her eyes turned red as tears began to fall.
Xie Qingrong's expression remained indifferent, "What are you crying for, isn't your young miss being fine?" She passed a handkerchief to Nuan Xiang, hinting her to wipe her tears, then asked Warm Jade: "What's going on?"
Warm Jade hung the kernels on the shelf and answered: "Just now, this servant and Nuan Xiang found that Sir and that Young Noble falling on the ground at the entrance of the courtyard, and thus carried them in together with Nuan Xiang." As she said that, she pointed in the direction of the soft couch, only to discover that there was no one there. She was stunned.
Xie Qingrong did not see the Black Turtle on the soft patch. She guessed that it was probably awake and concealed.
Warm Jade continued: "Your injuries are not light. Nuan Xiang will go and call the doctor. The doctor said that you were in danger, luckily Prince Chen had brought the doctor over. Furthermore, Prince Chen has brought the Tianshan Snow Lotus, otherwise, this servant might really not be able to see Miss anymore. "
"What was the doctor's name?" Xie Qingrong frowned and asked.
"I heard it's called Lin Mu." Warm Jade replied.
Xie Qingrong said indifferently: "En, you guys go down first, I need to rest."
"Yes." Nuan Xiang and Wen Yu said in unison as they walked out of the room.
Xie Qingrong heard the sound of footsteps getting softer and softer, until there was no sound at all. She then said to the air: "Come out."
A black figure knelt in front of Xie Qingrong with one knee, clasped his hands together and bowed, "This subordinate is incompetent and has caused master to receive heavy injuries."
At that time, when Black Turtle saw the arrow that was piercing Xie Qingrong's back but was unable to stop it, the first thought that popped up in her mind was not fear, but that he had betrayed the trust of the Duke and betrayed the oath he had made.
If anything happened to the princess, he would immediately draw his sword and commit suicide.
At this moment, Black Turtle had already unsheathed his sword and placed it around his neck.
Seeing that, Xie Qingrong did not stop her. She only spoke sarcastically, and said coldly: "If you want to die, no one will stop you. But as a subordinate, what should you do? "
"Perform your duty, obey your orders." Black Turtle replied.
"So what are you doing now? "Hurry up and take the sword away." Xie Qingrong said coldly.
"Your subordinate is unable to escape punishment."
"I, I command you now, put your sword down." Xie Qingrong ordered coldly, with a bit of suppressed anger in her voice. She continued to speak and taught Black Tortoise a lesson. "Since you are my subordinate, you should know one thing. I do not need you to constantly use your life to tell me your loyalty. I only need you to remember what I want you to do, what you can do, absolutely, obey me. "
"Yes, your subordinate obeys." Black Turtle put down his sword. He lowered his head in shame, but his eyes were filled with determination.
Xie Qingrong waved her hand, instructing Black Turtle to retreat. As for herself, she was lying on the bed, thinking about everything that had happened today.
Today, she had changed into casual clothes at Prince Chen's Mansion, and no one knew that she had gone there. Other than the people from the Prince Chen's Mansion, it seemed like the enormous Duke Palaces were actually able to fit into one's eyes and ears.
This Xuanyuan Chen was not as strong as he had imagined.
That's not right!
Xuanyuan Chen should be aware of this fact, and he might have done it on purpose. On the other hand, I can also monitor them. As the saying goes, if the enemy doesn't move, I won't move.
What a great Xuanyuan Chen!
Then how many spies had been planted in the general's manor and how many powers were watching from the outside?
The day she had established her might in the general's manor, it was likely that she had already obstructed some people's path. Moreover, as the fiancee of Prince Chen, she was even more of a thorn in the eyes of some people.
