The thin blanket covering her was suddenly ripped off.

Di Jingling snorted coldly: "Your Highness should explain to me why you've become so fat after catching a cold?"

Xiao Tang: "..."

I'm not fat, I'm muscular, okay?

[Don't you know how to use words?! No wonder you, a complete straight man, can't win over the female lead.]

She was furious.

She was very upset when people told her she was fat.

Just as Xiao Tang's eyes flickered as she was about to say something, suddenly... a weight appeared on her body.

This thing came crashing down.

What are you doing?

Do you think you're climbing Mount Everest?

When Di Jingling pressed down, if it weren't for the darkness of night and the dim lighting, the scene would have been quite eerie.

"Your Highness's physique is quite robust, very much like that of the flower thief, hmm?"

"...Hehe, what flower thief? Your Majesty..." Xiao Tang thought of an excuse in a flash, immediately grabbed a corner of the thin blanket, and wiped her eyes that had no tears to begin with, "To be honest, my husband, I have had a strange illness since I was a child, and I have this every month."

She raised her large hand and slapped it hard on the man's back.

"If my husband dislikes me, I will never show my displeasure in front of you again when I fall ill."

"Waaaaah~!"

The tough Barbie sheds tears, transforming into a whiny monster.

The scene is as jarring as it gets.

Di Jingling's lips twitched slightly. Just as she was about to say something, the bed frame made a cracking creaking sound.

Their eyes suddenly met.

"No... Husband, you... you get off now!"

It's too late...

Click!

The two of them fell down together.

The bed board collapsed.

Moreover, the noise was so loud that it disturbed Ruyi, who was sleeping soundly next door.

Xiao Tang tragically ended up at the bottom.

Di Jingling was originally lying on top of her, so when he fell, she was cushioned by her, so he didn't feel any pain at all.

Tears welled up in Xiao Tang's eyes; she was truly in pain.

My leg was scratched by the cracked bed board.

At this moment, Ruyi, who had heard the commotion, hurriedly pushed open the door and rushed in, "Your Highness, Your Highness, something bad has happened, it sounds like an earthquake... uh?"

The scene before her eyes left Ruyi speechless.

The face still seemed to be the princess's face, but the person with a figure like a towering mountain, really was... the princess?

Di Jingling glared at the meddlesome Ruyi.

The dazed Ruyi pinched her cheek and murmured, "Yes, I must still be dreaming. I will go back and continue dreaming."

After Ruyi left, Di Jingling got up from the pile of broken beds.

He pulled her up.

"Go to my bedchamber to rest." He wasn't negotiating; he was giving an order.

Xiao Tang glanced at the pile of junk behind her and nodded resentfully.

Does she still have a choice now?

If you calculate it, half an hour has passed; only half of it has gone by.

However, compared to that, Di Jingling's jade bed is definitely sturdy enough and won't collapse.

...

Inside the bedchamber, Emperor Jingling noticed bloodstains on Xiao Tang's trouser legs.

She walks with a limp.

It looks like—he's injured?

"Are you hurt?" The man's tone turned serious, clearly showing some concern.

Xiao Tang shook her head, "I just got a scratch, but I can take care of it myself."

She felt incredibly embarrassed by tonight's blunder.

I wish I could disappear into a crack in the ground.

It seems this man knew she was a womanizer from the very beginning, and now she's even hurt because of it...

miserable.

[Sobbing, the waters of West Lake, my tears.]

Tear.

Di Jingling didn't want to waste words with her, so he went straight to her and pulled open her trouser leg.

Sure enough, I saw the long, deep scratch on his leg.

Even with the protection of pants, wood chips still got stuck in the wound.

His brows were deeply furrowed.

He stared at her wound, looking slightly annoyed.

"Don't do that again!"

He retrieved the dagger to remove the wood chips for her.

Xiao Tang gritted her teeth secretly.

Because it hurts a lot when a dagger cuts into a wound.

She could have cried and made a scene, but instead she just gritted her teeth.

The man raised an eyebrow and glanced at her.

I was quite surprised by her reaction.

Xiao Tang felt a little uneasy under his gaze.

[Stop looking! I know I look weird like a bodybuilder right now, but you don't have to keep staring, do you?]

Who would have thought, you big villain, to have such peculiar tastes?

Soon, Di Jingling finished treating her wounds.

Xiao Tang took out the first-aid kit and treated the wound herself.

She couldn't even be bothered to explain why she had brought out these strange tools.

Anyway, let's just treat tonight's events as a dream.

When I wake up tomorrow morning, I'll tell the villains that it was all a dream.

...

The next day.

Xiao Tang rolled over and used her hands and feet to grab the person next to her.

Perhaps because of the commotion last night, Xiao Tang slept very soundly.

Of course, their sleeping posture was also extremely unseemly.

Di Jingling lowered his eyes and glanced at the woman clinging to him with her arms and legs.

From his angle, he could see the woman's long, curled eyelashes fluttering gently, like butterfly wings.

And there's her little mouth smacking in her sleep.

She is slender.

She was clearly a pretty woman who should have been delicate and lovable, but instead... she was a fierce one.

He raised his fingers and pinched her cheek.

"Your Highness?" Yan Jiu knocked on the door. "You're going to be late for court."

Is Your Highness staying in bed too long?

This is something that has shocked the entire continent.
