After the failed attempt to pretend to be dead, the sickly child was favored by the treacherous mini

"Oh." Shen Jinmo pursed his lips, and after a long while he responded muffledly and sat back at the table.

Han Zhou was the first outsider mentioned by Xie Nanxing in front of Shen Jinmo.

Xie Nanxing took out the clothes and started to organize Shen Jinmo's wardrobe: "The weather is getting a bit warmer now. The clothes you wore last time were too thick. I'll change them into thinner spring clothes for you."

Shen Jinmo didn't respond, and directly took out Xie Nanxing's calligraphy: "Come here and practice calligraphy."

Xie Nanxing: ???

The stools in the Imperial Hospital were too low, so Xie Nanxing stood where Shen Jinmo had just sat to practice calligraphy. After practicing ten big characters, he would ask Shen Jinmo to help take a look.

Shen Jinmo flipped through the large characters on his hand, his brows relaxed, and his words became even colder: "These characters of '永' repeat the mistake that the master mentioned yesterday, practice again."

Then, Shen Jinmo crumpled the ten big characters into a ball and threw them directly to the ground...

Xie Nanxing’s eyes widened.

Shen Jinmo lost the calligraphy he practiced???

He was not in good health to begin with, and he must have been out of breath after writing fifty big words.

He had been practicing calligraphy here for such a long time, and no matter how bad his handwriting was, Shen Jinmo would only give some pointers and never asked him to rewrite it, let alone roll it into a ball and throw it away.

After taking several deep breaths, Xie Nanxing patiently wrote ten more and handed them to Shen Jinmo.

Shen Jinmo took a look and found that this time it was better than last time. Looking at Xie Nanxing breathing slightly, he couldn't bear to throw them all away.

Only five were thrown.

Slamming his hand on the desk, Xie Nanxing glared at Shen Jinmo angrily.

The more he glared at her, the angrier he became. He turned around with the copybook in his hand and his school bag on his back, took a few steps, and put the five big words that Shen Jinmo had not crumpled into a ball into his school bag.

The door of the wing room was slammed with a loud bang. Shen Jinmo sat on the soft stool for a long time, then stood up, picked up the paper balls on the ground, and flattened them one by one and stacked them together.

The corners of his mouth curled up into a bitter smile.

.

After dinner, Shen Jinmo sat at the desk. At this time, the sky was filled with gorgeous sunset glow. The brush in his hand had already left ink stains, smudged the rice paper.

Shen Jinmo's gaze fell outside the window, as if he was looking at the sunset, or at the evergreen trees in the courtyard, or maybe he was looking at nothing.

Xie Nanxing had not been to the Imperial Hospital for five days. Shen Jinmo knew that he had completely pissed him off this time.

If I had known I wouldn't have gone crazy that time...

I should have apologized earlier...

Eunuch Lin knocked on the door with the hand holding Fu Chen. After getting Shen Jinmo's approval, he walked up to Shen Jinmo with a smile on his face and bowed to him.

"Your Highness, this is great news. Imperial Doctor Shu has finally developed the antidote."

Putting down the hand that was holding the brush to write the word "Yong", Shen Jinmo put the brush into the brush washer to wash off the remaining ink and hung it on the pen holder. He looked up at Eunuch Lin.

Eunuch Lin had long been accustomed to Shen Jinmo's cold face. Except for Xie Nanxing, he had never seen this young master smile at anyone else.

Even when facing the emperor, he always smiled indifferently.

With a smile on his face, Eunuch Lin made up for himself: "You must be very happy. The emperor asked me to invite His Highness to the Golden Palace."

"Yeah." Shen Jinmo responded with one word, and put the big words on the desk into the book page before standing up: "Let's go."

After walking for a distance, the sky became darker.

Eunuch Lin took the lantern from the young eunuch and bowed to lead the way for Shen Jinmo: "Knowing that the antidote has been developed, the emperor was so happy that he ate half an extra bowl of rice today."

"I just finished dealing with state affairs, and I am here to take His Royal Highness over."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Shen Jinmo's frown relaxed a little, but he did not show excessive excitement.

"Your Highness, are you in a bad mood today?"

He asked again with a flattering smile. Eunuch Lin didn't want to offend Shen Jinmo now. No matter how favored he was as a eunuch, there was no need for him to make enemies with Shen Jinmo.

With a blank expression on his face, he replied in a calm tone: "No."

Eunuch Lin curled his lips and didn't ask any more questions.

It's not like he has no brains. Isn't it just making people dislike him if he tries to please someone who refuses him?

"Your Highness, I, Shen Jinmo, pay my respects to you. Long live the emperor."

Xia Hong waved his hand, the arc between his eyebrows was very comfortable: "Xiao Mo, have you heard the good news?"

"Eunuch Lin has already informed me of the news on the way here." Shen Jinmo stood up from the ground, his eyes showing trust in Xia Hong: "I know that the emperor will definitely save me."

Xia Hong nodded in satisfaction, holding his folding fan and pointing at Eunuch Lin, scolding him with a smile: "You are old but still can't control your mouth. Sooner or later, I will punish you."

Raising his hand and slapping himself twice, Eunuch Lin smiled and replied, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was too happy. I will never dare to do it again next time."

"Are you still thinking about next time?"

Eunuch Lin bowed his head and apologized hurriedly: "I will be punished with a stick in a moment. Your Highness will surely be safe and sound in the future. Stay healthy."

"No thanks. I'm in a good mood today, so I'll spare you this time."

Then he turned to look at Doctor Shu and said, "Hurry up and give the antidote to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Doctor Shu took out the pills and the eunuch brought them some warm water. Shen Jinmo swallowed the pills with the warm water.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." After standing up, he bowed to Doctor Shu and said, "Thank you, Doctor Shu, for your concern."

Doctor Shu returned the greeting and asked, "What do you think, Your Highness?"

"My meridians feel a little more relaxed, and the tightness in my dantian has also been alleviated a lot, but I don't feel any other sensations."

"In that case, this antidote is correct." Doctor Shu bowed to Xia Hong.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. This pill can protect the Crown Prince for three months. After three months, I will definitely find all the medicinal materials and develop the next pill."

The joy in the hall came to an abrupt end, and all the happiness was covered by layers of gloom.

Eunuch Lin led the palace maids and eunuchs out, and the palace door closed.

It took all the efforts of the world and more than three months. As long as Shen Jinmo was not a fool, he would know that Xia Hong was still worried about him.

Under the imperial power, no one believes in the so-called sincerity. They only trust the power in their hands and what they actually do.

The spring wind blew the candlelight through the window, and Shen Jinmo closed his eyes tightly. He knew that he needed to make a decision tonight.

The candles were blown out one by one by the spring breeze. Xia Hong personally held the candles and relit the extinguished candles one by one.

The candlelight in this hall and the people of this world, whether they are bright or dim, all depend on Xia Hong's thoughts.

The so-called direct lineage of Xia Hong was not completely killed. This was due to personal feelings, later historical books, and the support of the people of the world.

There is only one person he cannot kill.

The candlelight in the hall changed, and the closed eyes calmly opened: "Your servant Shen Jinmo is willing to be the emperor's vanguard and obey the emperor's orders."

The window was closed, and the spring breeze outside could not blow into the golden palace. Xia Hong blew out the candle in his hand, and the imprint of dragon boots entered Shen Jinmo's eyes.

"Silly child, I know your loyalty." Xia Hong's words were very calm, revealing his confidence in his position: "Don't worry, it will take time for Doctor Shu to develop the pills. Sooner or later, I will let him eliminate the remaining poison for you."

"I don't dare."

With the heart-wrenching pain in front and Sanyue being trapped behind, Shen Jinmo had no choice now that his life and death were in Xia Hong's hands.

His usually straight spine seemed unchanged, but Xia Hong felt it was a little softer.

It’s not that Xia Hong is soft-hearted, it’s that Xia Hong feels that Shen Jinmo’s bones are a little soft.

"Xiao Mo and Nan Xing are having a conflict?"

If someone who comes every day suddenly stops coming, there must be a reason.

"It's my fault. I made him angry."

"Xiao Mo is interested in Xie Nanxing?" Walking around Shen Jinmo, Xia Hong directly laid out his bargaining chips: "Do you want me to promise him to be your male concubine?"
