His hands had nowhere to rest, his eyes were closed tightly, and his teeth were biting his lips.

At this time, he suddenly thought of what Princess Yongping had said to him. He shook his head vigorously, hating himself for overestimating his own capabilities.

She is a princess and he is a guard. The disparity in their status has already destined this to be impossible.

Thinking of this, he pushed away Xingnan who was holding him tightly, panting heavily and shaking his head vigorously.

"Xing...Princess Xingnan, you...don't scare me. It's impossible for us to be together. You are the princess and I am the guard. It is impossible for us to be together."

"How is it impossible? I like you, that's enough. I don't care who you are or what your identity is. I just know that I like you."

"No, no, no, please be more sensible. There is absolutely no way between you and me. Please let me go!"

Upon hearing this, Xingnan's face turned pale, and she looked at him as if she didn't understand.

"What did you say? Ask me to let you go? Do you hate me?"

"No...no, I don't hate you, I..."

"Do you like me?"

"No...I don't dare to like you."

Xiao Ningzi, who had always been sharp-tongued, suddenly felt that he could not speak at this moment, and his mouth was no longer obedient.

He licked his lips, then shook his head vigorously,

"Well, Princess Xingnan, you are a very cute little girl. As for me, not only am I much older than you, but I am also ugly. I am also just a palace guard with no status. What you just said, I only take it as your own. I had a dream. From today on, you should not come to me to teach you kung fu again. I don’t dare to take my leave.”

As soon as he turned around, Xingnan rushed over and hugged him from behind again.

"You can't leave. Please make it clear today. If you don't care about your status, will you like me?"

This question actually gave Xiao Ningzi a hard time. To be honest, this girl Xingnan was quite lovable. Although she had teased her a few times, he had never been angry with her.

But even if he likes her in his heart, he cannot admit it in front of her, otherwise, Princess Yongping will come to trouble him again, and he will not be able to be with Princess Xingnan.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and said directly:

"I don't like you. No matter who you are, I won't like you. You are unruly and willful, and you are too playful. I don't like girls like you."

These words made Xingnan's face suddenly turn cold. She bit her lip, weakly let go of the hand holding Xiao Ningzi, and stood there with her hands down.

Xiao Ningzi knew that these words made her sad, but what could he do? His identity did not allow him to have the slightest thought about her.

He turned around, bowed to her and clasped his fists,

"Princess Xingnan, take care, I'm going back first."

After leaving these words, he turned around ruthlessly, took long steps, and left here as if he was running away.

Xingnan stood there, sobbing and muttering to himself,

"I've known for a long time that you hate me, and I never want to see you again."

……

The sky gradually became brighter, the morning court time was approaching, and the people in the palace began to move around.

Fengyi Palace

After a night's rest, Luo Lan felt that she finally had strength. Luo Xue came to her with a bowl of porridge.

"Sister, let's eat!"

"Why did you come so early?"

Luo Xue handed the porridge bowl to her hand, watched her eat it, and said:

"When he left yesterday, the emperor told me that he would have an early morning court today and asked me to be here before he left. When I came just now, I saw you were still sleeping, so I didn't disturb you. I heard the sound of you waking up, so I came to serve you. You are dining."

It turned out that she had arrived early, Luo Lan looked at her distressedly,

"Xue, thank you for your hard work. You have to run on both sides."

"It's not hard. By the way, Lele and Yicheng wanted to come to the palace to see you, but I refused. I said I would let them come after you recover in a few days."

"Well, there are so many people here, it's easy to get picked on. By the way, I guess it's almost time. After dinner, you can go outside and look around to see if there's anything unusual."

"Okay, I'll be there in a while."

At this moment, Ah Hong walked in quickly and reported back through a screen:

"Second Miss, Princess Yongning is here. She said she brought some medicine for promoting body fluid and nourishing blood, and she wanted to give it to the Queen to try."

Hearing this, Luo Xue looked at Luo Lan, who narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded.

Luo Xue then ordered Ah Hong outside:

"Please come in!"

As she spoke, she hurriedly put away the dishes and chopsticks she had just eaten. Yongning had already come in at this time.

When she came to Luo Xue carrying a food box, she asked with concern:

"Second Miss, I have some medicinal medicine here. It is a great tonic specially used by the royal family of Nanping Kingdom. You can give it to the Queen. It may be useful."

Luo Xue took the food box from her hand and nodded gratefully.

"Thank you Princess Yongning. However, the queen is unconscious now and can't eat anything at all. I just wanted to feed her a mouthful of porridge, but she didn't even open her mouth. I thought, according to her current state, even if she doesn't die of illness, she will Starved to death.”

"Well, these imperial doctors are really useless. By the way, the empress is the first female doctor of Daning Kingdom who was granted the title by the late emperor. She should have treated herself before she fell into coma, right? Why isn't this better?"

Luo Xue shook her head sadly,

"I also heard the emperor say that she had cured herself, but the poison in the poisonous arrow had penetrated deep into the bone marrow, and it would be difficult for the gods to cure her. Now that she can lie quietly like this, it is her best. She has been doing good deeds for many years, God has treated her favorably, alas!"

Yongning's eyes flashed for a few times, and then he sighed,

"Don't be too sad. Maybe the queen will wake up one day. You can find a way to give her this bowl of medicine later. I'll go back first."

"Princess Yongning, walk slowly."

It wasn't until she watched Princess Yongning leave that Luo Xue came to Luo Lan and frowned:

"Sister, do you think the bowl of medicine is poisonous?"

Luo Lan chuckled and shook his head.

"will not."

"Didn't you say that she is the most suspicious? She brought a bowl of medicine at this time. Doesn't this verify your guess?"

Luo Lan raised his hand and pointed to the location of the bronze mirror.

"Don't guess. There are silver needles there. You will know after you try them."

Luo Xue suddenly realized and got up to look for the silver needle. Then she came to the table and inserted the silver needle into the bowl of medicine. The result was as Luo Lan expected. The silver needle did not change at all. It seemed that the bowl of medicine had changed. It's not poisonous.

Luo Xue picked up the handkerchief and wiped the silver needle. She came to her with a surprised face and held up the silver needle to show her.

"So, we misunderstood her?"

"I don't know, maybe this is asking for directions."

Luo Xue shook her head in confusion.

"What should I do with this bowl of medicine?"

"Pour it out! Look at my body, do I need tonic?"

Luo Xue chuckled lightly and walked out with the medicine bowl.

In this moment, Leng Yu hurriedly walked in. Before anyone could get close, he said angrily:

"Are you angry about this? If Luo Xue knew about it, wouldn't she be angry to death?"
