But if he had detoxified them, why were the two of them not wearing any clothes this morning and were in such an intimate posture?

He couldn't figure it out, so he took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and decided to turn back to the bedroom to find Su Jingyao to ask for clarification...

He walked slowly and silently like a ghost, and went behind the screen, where Su Jingyao's dressing table was placed.

He was tall, and even before he crossed the screen, he could clearly see Su Jingyao in the bronze mirror.

At this moment, she was slightly lowering her head, her shoulders trembling from time to time, and tears were falling from the corners of her eyes like pearls from a broken string.

She is crying...

Jun Zechen felt as if there was a heavy burden on his heart, and he was extremely upset. The pain was like a needle prick, and it gradually spread throughout his body like a tide.

He took a deep breath, stepped over the screen and stepped into the house.

When Su Jingyao heard the noise, she quickly raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

She lowered her head almost to her chest, then stood up and bowed to him.

"I pay my respects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Her voice was mixed with an irrepressible cry, which seemed to be there and not there, but was clear to the ear.

Jun Zechen raised his arm slightly, as if he wanted to help her up, but he only extended half of his arm and then retracted it abruptly.

All he said was, "Get up."

Su Jingyao slowly stood up and stood straight, but still kept her head down, as if she wanted to hide all her sadness and grievances.

Jun Zechen naturally knew what she was thinking. He had said many hurtful words before, but Su Jingyao had never cried in front of him.

"Why are you crying secretly?"

There was a hint of concern in his voice that he himself was not even aware of.

Su Jingyao stood there quietly, biting her lips so gently, the shallow teeth marks left on her red lips by her pearly teeth carried a hint of stubbornness and grievance that was barely noticeable.

After a short silence, she uttered those three words in a voice as small as a mosquito's: "I couldn't help it..."

"If you feel wronged, why don't you explain the reason clearly, and why don't you cry in front of me."

Wouldn't it make him feel more distressed if I cried in front of him?

The corners of Su Jingyao's eyes turned slightly red from crying, like a fading sunset on the horizon, which made people feel pity for her.

Her eyes, soaked with tears, were as clear as if washed by spring water, clean and pure, but there was a hint of sadness in the depths of her eyes.

After a pause, Su Jingyao slowly raised her head, her autumn-water-like eyes slightly raised, and her gaze met Jun Zechen's.

"Because I only cry in front of people who love me. Crying in front of people who don't care about me is just a joke."

There was a hint of stubbornness and helplessness in her voice, and every word seemed to be squeezed out with difficulty from the depths of her heart.

Jun Zechen clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turned slightly white from the force, his lips were pursed into a straight line, and his complicated gaze was fixed firmly on Su Jingyao.

Doesn't he feel sorry for her?

Then why was his heart aching now?

"Since you gave me the 'Hundred Poisons Clear', why were we so close and disheveled this morning?"

Jun Zechen bluntly raised his doubts, with confusion and questioning in his eyes.

Su Jingyao's body trembled violently when she heard that. Her eyes, which had been soaked with tears, were now sparkling with tears, like the twinkling stars in the night sky, and her long eyelashes were trembling slightly.

"Shouldn't you ask your Highness yourself?"

There was a hint of resentment and grievance in her voice, and every word was filled with endless sadness.

After Jun Zechen knew about the Chinese medicine last night, he pinned her down and bullied her.

However, after taking the antidote, he almost didn't remember what happened. Could it be that he was still holding her and refused to let go?

"I misunderstood you, you..."

Before Jun Zechen finished speaking, Su Jingyao interrupted him coldly: "I know that Your Highness only has Sister Crown Princess in his heart, and I only regard Sister as a relative in the East Palace. Your Highness is Sister's husband, no matter what, I will not have anything to do with Your Highness."

Her voice was cold as ice, yet it carried a determination that could not be ignored.

She slowly turned her head away and stopped looking at Jun Zechen, but she still had to make things clear.

"Last night, His Highness was brought to Xiyan Palace by Aunt Jinhua. When I found that His Highness was not feeling well, I sent a maid to ask my sister to bring His Highness back to Qiluan Palace without hesitation. But I waited and waited, but my sister never showed up."

"I don't know if my sister has any misunderstandings. Your Highness should go to my sister and explain things to her as soon as possible. I have let go of what happened this morning and don't care."

After saying that, she lowered her head again, like a beautiful and lonely sculpture, standing there quietly, waiting for Jun Zechen to leave.

At this moment, Jun Zechen's thoughts had changed.

He stared at the woman in front of him, and his original suspicion completely dissipated.

Maybe in her heart, I am the person she hates the most.

If she wanted to seduce him, last night was the best time.

However, she used the 'Bai Du Qing' that her mother had prepared for her on him, just to remove the charm poison that had infected him.

At this point, Jun Zechen finally understood that it was not that he did not want to consummate the marriage, but that she was simply unwilling to consummate the marriage with him.

Jun Zechen's eyes were fixed on the top of the woman's head.

Just as she said, I should go to Qiluan Palace as she said and explain to Ling Yue everything that happened last night.

But the cold rejection from the woman in front of him was like a cold current that penetrated his body and made his heart a mess.
