When the prince is reborn, he will only hit me if he doesn't hit the wall!

"Ok?"

Xu Xinyue was a little confused.

“It’s because the young lady was taken away by Ana Luo. When the prince came back and couldn’t see anyone, he reprimanded them for not being able to stop them and almost killed them.

It was me who had the courage to stand up and speak for them.”

As Xiao Shu spoke, he gestured with his hands, as if he wanted to recreate the situation of that day.

“I stopped King Rong at the time and said that the young lady was not in good health and followed Ana Luo to seek medical treatment, not because they failed to take good care of her.

After much persuasion, he finally calmed down and let them go. Otherwise, all of them would——"

Xiao Shu looked back at them, then turned his head and made a gesture of stroking his palm across the neck to Xu Xinyue.

Xu Xinyue teased: "So, you saved their lives by putting all the blame on me?"

Xiao Shu scratched the ground with his feet embarrassedly.

"That can't be said. It's not putting the blame on the young lady. It's just that only in the name of the young lady can the prince calm down. He will definitely not be willing to lose his temper with the young lady.

All I can say is that we just pulled the lady's flag to protect ourselves, hehe."

Xu Xinyue glanced behind Xiao Shu and said, "Why are there so many more people than before? Moreover, many of them are strangers."

"I'm not sure about this servant, it seems like she was transferred from outside, and the prince asked her to come with me."

The leader of the crowd stepped forward, clasped his fists and saluted, saying:

"master."

"Are you sent by Qin Yuechuan? I am not your master, so there is no need to address me like that."

"King Rong has ordered that from now on we are his people. We will only obey your orders and do not need to obey anyone else, including King Rong."

The leading man had strong features and a three-inch long scar on his left eyebrow. He was respectful and calm.

"Just listen to me? What if I ask you to hurt him? Will you still listen to me?"

The answer came without hesitation: "Listen!"

Then he handed over a thumb-length black jade whistle with both hands, "If the master needs us, blow this whistle and we will appear."

Xu Xinyue took the whistle and played with it in his hand.

"I understand. You can leave now. I will call you if there is anything else."

In a short while, everyone scattered and disappeared without a trace.

"Oh, miss, they're running away so fast!"

Xu Xinyue understood: Qin Yuechuan's action should be to protect her, but she never caused any trouble in her daily life, so why did she need so many people?

*

Here, Qin Yuechuan received a message from Su Jinyan that Xuanxiao Pavilion could be officially opened.

He handed the list to Qingyang: "Those whose names are written in red ink on the list, in the name of Xuanxiao Pavilion, will all be eliminated, leaving no one alive. Also, go to Kyoto and secretly pass the message to Qin Chuanji, and report those whose names are written in black ink on the list to the emperor and promote them to be added.

Move quickly, we have to finish it all before Qin Zhaolie can react!"

Qingyang stuffed the list into his chest and left.

Qin Yuechuan looked at the medicine steaming on the table, as if he thought of something. The corners of his lips curled up little by little, and he picked up the medicine bowl and drank it all in one gulp.

"Yueyue, wait for me, you will be well soon."

The long-lost familiar pain invaded my whole body after a cup of tea.

I haven't experienced it in such a long time that I find it a little hard to bear, and it seems to be even more painful than before.

He once thought that perhaps in this life he would not be "held hostage" by that stinky old man like in his previous life.

But I didn't expect that I would repeat the same mistake because of Yueyue in this life.

However, he has no regrets and no regrets.

He actually felt that perhaps the best thing Qin Zhaolie had done in his life was to let the two "Frosts" fall on him. If it were someone else, perhaps even he would have to spend the rest of his life carrying the guilt towards that person.

A cold wind suddenly blew outside the window, the branches rustled in the wind, and the moonlight shone through the swaying shadows of the trees, sprinkling on the window lattice.

Xu Xinyue felt a little uneasy, and the book in her hand seemed unable to attract her attention.

Even the hissing sound of the burning red candle sounded particularly harsh.

She stood up, put on her clothes, and opened the window. The bone-chilling cold wind penetrated her clothes, making her shiver.

She tightened her robe and looked at the cold moonlight in the night sky. Her mind had already drifted far away and disappeared.

"Miss."

It's a cicada.

"Miss, this is the tonic prescription that Doctor Qiu left behind. I told you to drink it for a few days until you start taking the formal treatment medicine."

Although Xu Xinyue is also a doctor, he hates drinking this kind of bitter medicine.

Whenever she was sick as a child, the pills her mother handed her were always small and exquisite, colorful, without any bitterness, and even the medicine soup had a hint of sweetness.

Ever since her mother passed away, no matter how she condensed the pills, she could never make them as concentrated, small and exquisite as her mother's.

Xu Xinyue took the medicine bowl reluctantly. Just as she was about to take a sip, she smelled the medicine and her expression suddenly changed slightly.

Seeing that her face was not right, Xiao Chan asked hurriedly, "Miss, did you notice anything unusual in the medicine?"

Xu Xinyue shook her head. "There's nothing unusual in the medicine. However, when I sniffed the prescription carefully, it seems that this is not a tonic prescription, but a blood-purifying prescription."

"A blood-purifying prescription? It sounds like it should be non-toxic, right? Is it any different from a tonic prescription?"

“It is indeed non-toxic, but blood-cleansing prescriptions are generally used before and after detoxification to remove dirt in the blood that is incompatible with the detoxification prescription.

It’s not a big deal.

But why did you lie and say it was a tonic prescription? If it really was a blood-clearing prescription, why not tell the truth? "

"Miss? What does it matter? It's harmless to your body, just drink it. The Duke of Zhenguo won't harm you."

Xiao Chan was a little confused as to why Xu Xinyue cared about these details.

Xu Xinyue frowned and didn't say anything. She just stared at the medicine bowl and thought: He lied that it is a tonic because he must not want me to know the real purpose of this medicine.

Blood cleansing, if it is for taking formal physical therapy soup...

She suddenly remembered that until now, she still didn't know what the real physical therapy prescription was.

She had talked to He Xuehuai several times about preparing to decoct the medicine herself without having to rely on others.

But he always politely refused with various reasons, and every time when we were talking, he would suddenly have something important to do and hurried out.

Then I thought of He Xuehuai who seemed to be elusive recently.

At first Xu Xinyue thought that maybe he really had something urgent to do and left early and returned late. Now that she thought about it, there was a possibility:

He Xuehuai was avoiding her.

But she is not a man-eating tiger, why should he hide from her... Is there something he doesn't want her to know?
