At noon, the two of them were still sleeping in each other's arms in Jingchun Palace, sleeping soundly.

I don’t know how long it had been, but the two seemed to have switched roles. In the past, Yan Kaiyu woke up first, but today it was Shangguan Zimeng who woke up first.

She didn't make any extra movements, she just got up and washed. She didn't care about Yan Kaiyu, she went straight to the Pepper Room, she couldn't wait to see Ye Xi.

There are two reasons.

First, Shangguan Zi dreamed of seeing how much damage Ye Xi's illness, which had accumulated for half a year, had done to her body, and whether it could be cured. If it could, she wanted to do her best to help Ye Xi, and if not, she could comfort Ye Xi and not let her be too sad.

The second reason was that Shangguan Zimeng was still somewhat unwilling. She really wanted to know why everyone had kept this action a secret from her. She wanted to get the answer from Ye Xi. After all, she was the initiator of this action.

Yan Kaiyu? He is just a piece of wood.

As soon as I reached the door of the Pepper House, I ran into Liu Xingtang with panda eyes in his right eye.

Shangguan Zimeng looked at him with an expression of "I don't understand" and was staring at him in surprise. In her heart, she had already guessed what was going on: it seemed that he was caught up by Min Ran last night and beaten up.

She couldn't help but taunt him, "Hey! Second Prince Liu, your right eye is so dark, did you not get enough rest last night?"

Liu Xingtang glanced at her and said unhappily, "Have you ever seen anyone with dark circles under their eyes because they didn't get enough rest?"

"Yeah, so that's why you were beaten?"

"What do you know? This is a sign that my Ran'er loves me."

Shangguan Zimeng smiled and nodded, agreeing: "It can be seen that the love is quite fierce."

"you!"

She put away her impudent smile, and curiosity drove her to ask, "What are you doing here?"

Liu Xingtang's face wiped away the embarrassment just now, revealing a hint of pride, and said in a very light tone: "It seems that Yan Kaiyu didn't tell you anything."

"What do you mean?"

"Let me ask you, what do I do?"

Shangguan Zimeng thought about it for a while and replied seriously: "You are here to eat."

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Liu Xingtang's expression change rapidly, and immediately changed her words: "You are a prince, a prince with superb medical skills."

Obviously, Liu Xingtang was very satisfied with the answer. He praised her generously, "It seems that you are not a lazy person who only cares about eating. Sometimes you can react quite quickly."

Shangguan Zimeng: Haha, thank you. You are the same as Yan Kaiyu. You should be more kind in your words.

"So you are here to treat the Queen."

"Yes."

Shangguan Zimeng couldn't wait to ask, "How is it? How is the Queen's condition? Can she recover? Can she still have children in the future?"

Liu Xingtang patted his chest and said confidently: "Don't worry, I'm here to make sure the medicine will work. Moreover, after half a year of treatment, the Queen's health will be restored to its original state, and it will be no problem for her to get pregnant."

Shangguan Zimeng breathed a sigh of relief when she learned that Ye Xi was not seriously injured. She felt much more at ease now.

At the moment when she relaxed, an idea suddenly occurred to her, and she suddenly realized that Liu Xingtang's visit to the capital this time seemed to have been deliberately arranged.

She wanted to confirm her guess, so she asked Liu Xingtang, "Did you come here on your own to see the Queen? Or did someone arrange for you to come?"

Liu Xingtang didn't even think about it and directly told the truth behind the scenes: "Little girl, you don't know, do you? Your husband has already arranged everything, otherwise why do you think I came to the capital at this time? Of course, I also have my own little selfish motives."

Shangguan Zimeng nodded in satisfaction. It seemed that it was the same as what she thought. He was indeed the one Yan Kaiyu had specially called to treat the Queen. Then, it was natural for him to marry Ran'er.

But she still pretended not to know, and said in surprise: "So that's how it is. He is really thoughtful and cunning."

"That's good to know. You'd better be careful. He might sell you out one day and you won't even know it."

Shangguan Zimeng rolled her eyes at him. In order to protect her future husband, she retorted, "If he sells me out, I'll be happy to count the money for him. What's it to you?"

"I am ashamed of myself. I would like to call you the greatest person of all time." Liu Xingtang gently stroked his panda eyes: "It hurts again. I will go back to apply medicine first. You go in and see the Queen and have a chat with her. Goodbye."

Shangguan Zimeng kindly reminded: "Walk slowly, I won't see you off. Be careful when you walk, don't bump into anything."

He took his foot back, with a sly look on his face, and then said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm steady. Unlike someone who fell down last night when he was walking on flat ground."

After hearing this, Shangguan Zimeng raised her fist angrily: "You!"

Without waiting for her to make a move, Liu Xingtang ran away, leaving her alone to sulk.

"Damn you Yan Kaiyu! You tell everyone everything! It's only been a short time! Don't I have any dignity?!"

In fact, Yan Kaiyu's real intention in telling this matter was to show off to his good friends how cute his future princess was, like a child who never grew up, and it was really not to embarrass her in front of others.

Shangguan Zimeng walked into the Pepper Palace angrily.

Seeing her angry face, Ye Xi asked gently, "What's wrong, sister? You look so bad, who made you angry?"

"Who else could it be except that bastard Yan Kaiyu?" Shangguan Zimeng sat next to Ye Xi, took the water on the table and drank it in one gulp, and continued: "Let's not talk about him, sister, will your body really not have any sequelae?"

Ye Xi patted her hands and said to her comfortingly: "Don't worry, the prince and I had planned it from the beginning. I took medicine for half a year to confuse the opponent, and he asked the second prince to treat me when the time came to close the net just in case."

Shangguan Zimeng couldn't help but complain, "But this risk is too great. He's so smart, can't he come up with a foolproof plan?"

Ye Xi explained: "You can't blame the prince for this. It was my own request. The situation was tense at the time, so I had no choice but to choose this method. Although there are risks, they have been minimized."

"You are the mother of a country. If you say something you shouldn't, what will happen if something goes wrong?"

Ye Xi smiled and said, "I know you are doing this for my own good, sister. Look, I am fine now, right?" After that, she paused, her expression became a little sad, and she said calmly, "On the contrary, those who died in this smokeless battlefield in the past six months and the past few years are the ones who deserve the most admiration."

Shangguan Zimeng nodded in approval, criticizing herself in her heart for being narrow-minded and not having a sense of the overall situation. She decided to learn from Sister Ye Xi's excellent spirit of sacrificing herself for the sake of everyone.

She hesitated for a moment and asked awkwardly, "Sister, I have another question?"

"Ask me. If I know it, I will tell you."

Shangguan Zimeng immediately asked happily: "Why did you hide this operation from me?"

After saying that, she revealed an expectant look and looked at Ye Xi innocently.
