Chapter 336 Return to Beijing Immediately

In fact, Shen Ning had tried very hard to cheer herself up. She was worried that her condition would let Xiao Nanchen see something, so she only slept when Xiao Nanchen left to do something, and specifically instructed the maid to wake her up before Xiao Nanchen came back.

Even though it was very difficult to wake up every time, fortunately she was awake every time Xiao Nanchen came back.

Xiao Nanchen didn't seem to notice anything was wrong, and was busy arranging military affairs... There was just one thing, Chen Ning's period was about to come, and she was a little tempted by his body. As a result, the dog Ding Wang, who could set the whole prairie on fire at any time even without her ignition, refused to touch her this time.

Even if Shen Ning tried her best and his eyes turned red, when the critical moment came, he always pushed Shen Ning back and told her in a hoarse voice to be good and stop making trouble.

Shen Ning could see that Xiao Nanchen was obviously enduring it, but he just hugged her and kissed her again and again. Even though he was obviously enduring the pain, he was unwilling to really fight.

Xiao Nanchen really didn't dare to touch Chen Ning.

He noticed that there might be something wrong with her body. More importantly, Shen Ning was hiding it from him. If it was just an ordinary injury, she would have no reason to hide it.

Whenever he thought of this, Xiao Nanchen felt panic and anxiety burning inside him, but Shen Ning was teasing him like a demon all day long, so he could only find ways to comfort her.

Chen Ning got her period tonight and finally didn't have the energy to make a fuss, but she was still a little clingy.

In the past, if Chen Ning had clung to him like a little animal, Xiao Nanchen would have been so happy that his soul would fly away, but now, there was only panic in his heart.

He finally managed to coax the person to sleep before he got away.

After leaving the room, Xiao Nanchen closed his eyes and took a deep breath, suppressing the panic in his heart.

He must have been mistaken. She was obviously fine, how could she be in trouble!

At this time, Chengying appeared: "Master, the witch doctor is here."

It was Doudou who came again.

Ever since they cured Xiao Nanchen of the poison last time, Changning Guard has been in contact with Doudou in case of emergency. When Emperor Jiaping was poisoned last time, Xiao Nanchen chose to stand by and watch after confirming with Doudou that the poison was not fatal before he dared to let the empress suffer.

Doudou was a little surprised: "Chengying said you wanted me to see Chen Ning. Isn't she a doctor herself, and her medical skills are very good? Why did she choose to look for me?"

Xiao Nanchen's expression was calm: "Because I'm still not sure what's going on. I suspect she wants to hide it from me."

Doudou opened his eyes wide: "Why?"

She couldn't understand.

Chengying could certainly understand. His master had been so busy lately, surrounded by vicious dogs with sharp claws. His master had to deal with several sides alone, and if he was not careful, he would lose everything... If the King of Beihai really had something going on, it was understandable that he wanted to hide it from his master.

"Won't she wake up if I go in like this?" Doudou looked inside the door.

Xiao Nanchen hummed: "I'll go in first."

After he entered, he quickly and lightly pressed the button to put Shen Ning to sleep, and then Doudou came in and came to the bedside.

After taking a look at Chen Ning's expression, Doudou sat down directly beside the bed and put his hand on Chen Ning's wrist... After just a moment, Doudou's brows were tightly furrowed, and next to him, Xiao Nanchen's heart also tightened instantly.

After putting his left hand on the table, he switched to his right hand, and Doudou's face looked more solemn than ever.

After a while, she slowly loosened her hand, and after a moment's hesitation, she said to Xiao Nanchen, "Let's go out and talk."

At this moment, Xiao Nanchen's heart was already tense and frightened.

After leaving the room, without waiting for Xiao Nanchen to speak, Doudou said directly: "My master is now in the capital. His life span is almost over, which is this month. If you bring her back as soon as possible, it should still be in time."

With just one sentence, Xiao Nanchen's heart sank into an icy cave.

He subconsciously wanted to speak, but when he opened his mouth he found that he was speechless at this moment.

Chengying, who was standing next to him, saw this and quickly said, "Doudou, what's going on with the prince? Is he poisoned or something? Please explain clearly first."

Doudou rolled his eyes at Chengying, frowned, hesitated for a moment, and said tactfully: "My master said that I am not very good at learning skills, and sometimes I can't see things clearly. You should take her with you..."

"tell me."

Xiao Nanchen was finally able to speak, and he said, "Tell me the truth."

His expression seemed as calm as ever, but Chengying, who had been with him for many years, could tell that his master's heart was in turmoil.

He clenched his fists tightly, trying to maintain his composure.

Doudou had no choice but to honestly say, "Based on my current poor medical skills, she's not poisoned or bitten..."

Chengying breathed a sigh of relief: "Why are you still talking like that, you..."

The next moment, Doudou's voice continued, "Her pulse indicates that her internal organs are weakening."

Xiao Nanchen's face was already pale, and Chengying was also shocked.

Glancing at his master, he wanted to ask more, but ultimately didn't dare to speak. Finally, Xiao Nanchen spoke up himself: "What does 'five internal organs are weakened' mean? Why is this happening?"

Doudou pondered and explained, "The five internal organs are all weakened. You can understand this as a sign of exhaustion, just like those elderly people in their twilight years..."

"She's only eighteen!"

Xiao Nanchen gritted his teeth. In just a moment, his eyes turned red. "She's only eighteen years old. How could she be so exhausted?"

Doudou pursed her lips and said weakly, "You can understand this as an untreatable disease, just like some flowers bloom and then slowly wither, while others dry up before they even bloom... That's why I asked you to take her back to Beijing as soon as possible to find my master. Maybe we can see him before he passes away. He's already on his last legs..."

As she spoke, she realized that what she said was inappropriate. The girl from southern Xinjiang pinched the pigtail on her chest and shut her mouth in disappointment.

Xiao Nanchen suddenly remembered something and asked Doudou, "How long has this disease been present?"

Doudou immediately said: "I can diagnose this. It should have been at least a month ago. Shen Ning is a doctor herself, she should have noticed it a long time ago."

In an instant, Xiao Nanchen understood why Chen Ning was so determined not to let him leave anyone for her when he left Beijing this time.

It wasn't because of the many reasons she mentioned. There was only one real reason: she wanted to hide it from him!

Beside him, Chengying was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

Having followed Xiao Nanchen for many years, Chengying understood better than anyone what the King of Beihai meant to his master.

Prince Ding is always cold and ruthless in public, but the only soft support in his heart is Prince Beihai. If anything happens to her, Chengying dare not think about what his master will do.

"Your Highness."

Chengying mustered up the courage to speak: "I will immediately arrange for personnel and carriages, and integrate the troops. We will be able to set off and return to the capital by tomorrow afternoon at the latest."

"Let's go now."

Xiao Nanchen's voice had become hoarse: "Tell the Changning Guards to prepare and leave immediately."

"But Master..." Chengying gritted his teeth and advised him, "It will take several days to get there. Since the Tianxin Sect has not been subdued yet, if we are on the road..."

Xiao Nanchen raised his eyes: "I said, leave immediately!"

Chengying's dissuasion came to an abrupt end, and he bowed and accepted the order: "Yes!"

Doudou whispered to dissuade him, "She wants to hide it from you. If you make such a big fuss and travel overnight, she'll definitely find out..."

Xiao Nanchen hesitated for a moment, but just when Chengying thought his master would listen to his advice, he heard Prince Ding's calm voice: "Go and prepare."

Chengying bowed and took the order, then retreated and prepared...
