The Almighty Princess just wants to farm

Imperial Palace

In Kangning Palace, Queen Mother Xiao Lingluo was enjoying the service of the palace people with her eyes closed.

"The Queen Mother..."

Juruo called out softly.

Queen Mother Xiao raised her eyes and waved away the people serving around her.

"How's it going?"

"Back to the Queen Mother, this group of people has been destroyed..."

"Trash! The Ai family has spent so much effort, but they can't even deal with a cripple. They are all trash!"

Xiao Ling's raised lips were trembling.

"Queen Mother, please calm down. Although this group of people has failed, the spies have brought back a very important news."

Ju Ruo approached Xiao Lingluo and whispered a few words in her ear.

"really?"

"It's true."

"That's interesting..."

Xiao Lingluo considered it carefully.

"Ju Ruo, this matter is big or small. We must find a suitable opportunity for her to admit it. In addition, we should evacuate everyone. The Ai family has other things for them to do."

"Yes."

"master."

In the Imperial Study Room, a man in black was kneeling on one knee in front of the Imperial Palace.

"Say."

Nangong Hefeng stopped reviewing the memorial and waited for the kneeling person below to reply.

"On the way back, there were a total of six assassinations. The most recent one was in Source City, at the hands of Dongfang Lidong from Dongfang General's Mansion."

"Dongfang Li? Does she know martial arts?"

Nangong Hefeng was so shocked that he stood up from the dragon chair.

"I can't tell what the routine is, but it should have no internal strength and strong physical strength."

The kneeling man in black gave a pertinent answer.

"Did you find anything else?"

Nangong Hefeng walked around the table and stopped in front of the man in black.

"At the border, it was strange that Dongfang Changqing recovered from his illness. He seemed to be cured in one day, and there was no sign of recovery from any serious illness."

"Then there are only two possibilities. Either the person who treated him is very skilled, or Dongfang Changqing is pretending to be ill."

Nangong Hefeng narrowed his eyes, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.

"Wang Shi didn't have the guts to lie to the orphan, so Dongfang Changqing's coma is true, but you said that he woke up suddenly. This means that someone secretly cured Dongfang Changqing. This person..."

who can that be?

Nangong Hefeng thought about the people around Nangong Xu one by one in his mind.

"You go secretly investigate and test this Dongfang Li to see what her skills are."

"Yes."

The man in black disappeared in a flash, as if he had never appeared.

"I didn't expect Gu to make mistakes. Nangongxu, Nangongxu, Gu is sending you a helping hand... Is this God's will?"

General House

"Sister, you are finally back. Jiaojiao misses you so much."

Dongfang Jiao hugged Dongfang Li who had just entered the door.

"Be good, I miss you too."

Dongfang Li patted Dongfang Jiao on the back. This was her half-sister. No matter how indifferent a person is, they can't break the bond of blood.

"The eldest lady is back. It's been a hard journey, but is it going well?"

Aunt Liu's concern and greetings were much more sincere.

"Don't worry, aunt, everything is fine."

"That's good, that's good. Miss, come in quickly. I'll let the kitchen prepare your favorite dish. You can try it later."

"Thank you, auntie."

The family walked and chatted, one after another towards the front hall.

After the meal, Dongfang Li returned to his private garden on the pretext of taking a rest early.

After bathing and changing clothes, Dongfang Li rolled up his trousers. The area on his calf near the knee was bruised and purple. It was caused by a fight a few days ago. Although the pain was no longer very painful, he still needed to apply medicine every day to avoid pigmentation.

Finding her own specially made ointment, Dongfang Li applied it carefully while blowing on it gently.

"Ali is injured?"

A familiar voice suddenly appeared in the room. Dongfang Li was so startled that the medicine jar Gululu in her hand fell to the ground.

"Miss, are you okay?"

Outside the house, Chunlu asked with concern.

"It's okay, I just dropped the cup. Go down and rest. You don't have to stay up all night."

Dongfang Li glared at the person who suddenly appeared in the room.

"The slave is next door. If you need anything, please remember to call the slave."

The footsteps gradually faded away, and Chunlu went to the side room to rest.

"Why did you come here?"

A tall figure sat directly on the edge of the bed. It was none other than the prince who should be resting in Prince Xu's Mansion - Nangong Xu.

"If I didn't come, how could I discover Ali's secret?"

Nangong Xu's lips pursed into a straight line, staring at the bruise in front of him, silent.

"It's not a big deal, it doesn't hurt anymore."

Dongfang Li slowly lowered his pants that were rolled up just above his knees.

"It's so late, why are you here?"

Dongfang Li asked again.

Nangong Xu didn't respond, just stood up silently, and then picked up the medicine jar that had just fallen to the ground.

The trousers he had just put down were rolled up again. Nangong Xu looked at the bruises and felt a dull pain in his heart.

"It will hurt when you apply the medicine, please bear with it."

There was a cool feeling on her legs, it was Nangong Xu applying medicine to her.

"Nangongxu, I didn't hide it from you on purpose. Don't be angry."

Dongfang Li was answered with silence.

"Now the color looks scary, but it's actually caused by broken capillaries on the surface of the skin and poor blood transportation."

"I used to get injured a lot when I was practicing, and my whole body was often covered in large bruises. At that time, there was no medicine that could activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis, so I had to apply hot compresses with towels."

"Nangong Xu, when I was Mo Li, I often stayed alone in the research laboratory. The longest time was almost a month. Now I am Dongfang Li. Although I have Qiulian and Dongshuang to take care of me, I Just get used to being alone."

"Nangong Xu, do you know? Habits, sometimes, are really terrible habits..."

Dongfang Li calmly recounted his past experiences, trying to reassure Nangong Xu.

"Ali... In the past, we were all alone... But now you have me, you don't need to bear everything by yourself..."

"Ali... I thought that we have experienced so much, even if we can't be in touch with each other, at least we should be able to share with each other, even if it is unhappy or even painful..."

"I came here tonight to tell you that my mother-in-law sent me news today, saying that the lotus pods in the bamboo garden are ready to be picked...Tomorrow I will have someone pick some and bring them to you, or...if you want to pick them yourself, you can …”

Nangong Xu's mood was very low, and his whole body was wrapped in a depressing aura.

Seeing him turn and leave, Dongfang Li reached out and wanted to hold his hand and hang it in mid-air...

The first cold war between the two started inexplicably.

At least, that's what Dongfang Li thought, because early the next morning, Xunyang appeared in the garden carrying a large basket. The basket contained fresh lotus pods, and there were even dewdrops on the lotus pods.

"Princess, the prince asked me to send these lotus pods. The prince said that if the princess wants to pick them herself, remember to bring someone who knows how to water. The water in the lotus pond is very deep."

"What is your prince doing?"

Dongfang Li glanced at the lotus pods, thinking that the two of them had agreed before to go pick lotus pods and dig lotus roots together. It had only been a few days, so why did it end up like this?

"Back to the princess, my subordinates don't know that the prince has been in Chaochen Pavilion since he came back yesterday."

"I know, you go back first."

Dongfang Li turned around and left, leaving Xunyang stunned.

"Just leave like that? Don't... ask any more questions? Then how will he deal with the prince when he goes back?"
