C782 782 Remaining hope

"If there is no more antidote, Your Highness only has a month left."

"No …" "It won't …"

Liu Ruo Qing continuously shook her head. Her legs went soft and she fell onto the ground, hitting her head on the corner of the table.

"Princess!"

Jin Shu walked up and helped Liu Ruo Qing up. Feeling her entire body turning cold, she couldn't help but frown.

"I... "I'm fine."

She waved her hand with a forced smile on her face. She was completely unable to feel the pain on her forehead, as if she had been shocked senseless by the news that Lu Yuan He had brought her.

Lu Yuan He was powerless against the poison in Yan Yuan's body. Seeing Liu Ruo Qing like this, she could not help but feel that it was too much for him.

"Esteemed wangfei, there's actually still a month left. It might not be a lost opportunity …"

To Liu Ruo Qing, this kind of comforting that had no confidence was useless, but she still accepted her good intentions, "That's right, there's still a month left."

She turned her gaze towards the window, not letting the tears in her eyes flow out.

"You guys go rest, I'll stay here and take care of the prince."

"Yes."

Lu Yuan He and Jin Shu both retreated, Liu Ruo Qing returned to Yan Yuan's side and sat down, and saw that her previously spirited and spirited face had now turned into this appearance.

She had never thought that the man who loved her would leave her in the blink of an eye.

Tears filled her eyes, but she was too stubborn to let them fall.

She looked at Yan Yuan, and for the first time, started to think, should she really be staying by his side, waiting for him to protect her?

If it wasn't for her, perhaps Yan Yuan wouldn't have to work so hard for her, and wouldn't even need to think about how he would fight against the Kaiser for her.

Every time he had a cut, it had to do with her.

This time, Yan Yuan fainted, and the Kaiser was temporarily suppressed. But when Yan Yuan woke up, what awaited him was the battle with the Kaiser again.

What should she do?

She looked out the window at the sky. The oppressive haze seemed to have grown thicker, so thick that it was hard to breathe.

She sat by Yan Yuan's side in a daze, thinking about all the things she had experienced with Yan Yuan before, about all the things he had done for her, and suddenly realised that she had never done anything for him.

Perhaps, she shouldn't have stayed by Yan Yuan's side from the beginning. If she had been a little more resolute back then, so determined that Yan Yuan would divorce her, perhaps things wouldn't have happened today.

Suddenly, the light in her eyes wavered slightly. Something flashed past in her mind, causing her eyes to suddenly brighten, "Xi Ya."

She suddenly stood up from the bed, thinking back to that day, Xi Ya had said that she would cure Yan Yuan's injuries.

Xi Ya was a Miao Man, she told his imperial aunt that she had learned medicine from her father, Dong Dan. Since Dong Dan knew how to cure Yan Yuan's poison, maybe Xi Ya really had a way.

That day, Xi Ya looked at Yan Yuan with such a determined gaze, maybe she really could cure Yan Yuan's poison.

Thinking about it this way, a trace of hope suddenly lit up on Liu Ruo Qing's face.

"Someone, come."

She opened the door and walked out of the room. Very quickly, Jin Shu who was standing guard nearby appeared in front of her.

"Send someone to the Grand Princess Palace to invite Miss Xi Ya here."

Grand Princess Palace —

"Crown Princess Jing wants to invite Xi Ya over?"

Nuo Lan was surprised to hear that the servant had sent the message.

Twenty years ago, the late emperor thought that she had died in the middle of that boat. In extreme grief, he bestowed her with the title of Grand Princess, and at the same time, bestowed her with the Grand Princess Palace.

Although the Grand Princess did not live inside, the Grand Princess Palace had people taking care of it.

Therefore, when Nuo Lan returned to the capital, in order to prevent Xi Ya from planning anything further, she moved out of the King Jing Palace.

Fortunately, the Grand Princess Palace was already prepared, and in order to not give Xi Ya any unnecessary hope, it was basically nothing big. He would not go to the King Jing Palace, and on this point, Nuo Lan was a very clear person.

Therefore, when she heard that Liu Ruo Qing had sent people over to invite Xi Ya to visit, she was slightly surprised.

"Reporting to Your Highness, the person who came was the maid at Crown Princess Jing's side, she said that the wangfei had urgent matters for Miss Xi Ya."

Although Xi Ya and Duo Ya were the daughters of the Grand Princess, they did not have any titles on them, so the servants always called them Miss.

Nuo Lan lowered his eyes and hesitated for a moment, then said: "Since the wangfei has invited you, then let Xi Ya make a trip."

"Yes."

After the servant left, Nuo Lan frowned, she did not think that Xi Ya had such an illusion, and upon thinking about it, she was still worried, and walked out of the room.

After exiting the courtyard, he saw that Xi Ya had already dressed up meticulously, with excitement on her face, he followed the gatekeeper out.

"Mother."

Ever since he had moved into the Grand Princess Palace, he had become a genuine daughter of heaven.

Xi Ya quickly walked to Nuo Lan's side and held her arm, then said cheerfully: "Cousin invited me to the King Jing Palace, may I go?"

Ever since she had been taught a lesson by Nuo Lan, Xi Ya had become more honest. She didn't dare to reveal any unnecessary thoughts in front of Nuo Lan.

Nuo Lan looked at her, sighed, and said: "Since the wangfei wants you to go, then go, remember to be careful."

"Mom, don't worry. I've grown up. I won't be as ignorant as I was before."

Xi Ya spoke with a face full of sincerity, making Nuo Lan unable to differentiate truth from falsehood for a moment. After repeated warnings, she finally got Xi Ya to follow her to the King Jing Palace.

King Jing Palace —

"Cousin asked me to cure cousin's poison?"

When Xi Ya saw the anticipation in Liu Ruo Qing's eyes, she could not help but sneer in her heart; there was still a sliver of indiscernible pride in her smile.

"Hmm, didn't you say last time that there was a way to treat your cousin's injuries?" Would you please show him? "

Liu Ruo Qing knew that Xi Ya had some enmity towards her, but for Yan Yuan's life, why would she care about such small matters?

The pleased look in Xi Ya's eyes became deeper, and even though she wished that she could rush to her cousin's side, but in front of Liu Ruo Qing, she suppressed it, and said: "But … Cousin, you know, Cousin doesn't like me to treat him. "

Hearing Xi Ya's words, the hope in Liu Ruo Qing's eyes deepened, "Do you really have a way to cure Yan Yuan's poison?"

Xi Ya blinked her bright eyes innocently, and said to Liu Ruo Qing: "Of course, I've learned medicine from my Abba for a few years, there's definitely no problem to cure cousin's poison."

The next second, he saw a troubled expression on her face. "But, cousin, my cousin doesn't welcome me. There's nothing I can do."

Even if she did not have the confidence to heal her cousin before, she was completely confident now. Even if Liu Ruo Qing did not take the initiative to look for her this time, she would definitely find an opportunity to do so.

How could she miss such a good opportunity to make her cousin look at her in a new light and the emperor look at her in a new light?
