Xiao Heng was first assassinated by an assassin, and now there is the incident of Wang Zhangyin, which makes him very upset.

He couldn't show it in front of Fei Wan.

Xiao Heng held Fei Wan's hand tightly: "Wan'er, don't worry, no one can hurt you now. I have already sent more people to protect you outside the palace."

Xiao Heng sent people to protect her because he cared about her performance. According to the plan, she should not refuse his kindness.

only……

Fei Wan was silent for a moment, and finally spoke: "Ah Heng, I'm not used to so many people guarding outside the palace."

Xiao Heng was slightly stunned, not understanding what he meant, but still agreed in a gentle voice.

"Since Wan'er doesn't like it, I'll just leave."

The deep affection in Xiao Heng's eyes could not be concealed, he looked at Fei Wan and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Fei Wan could see the emotions in his eyes clearly.

She probably guessed what Xiao Heng was thinking.

She risked her life for him, and since Fei Wan was the one and only white moonlight in his heart, Xiao Heng must have wanted to confess his love to her.

At this time, if Fei Wan acts out the deep love between the emperor and the empress again, Xiao Heng will naturally be devoted to her in the future.

However, Fei Wan wanted more than that.

Fei Wan leaned gently on the bed, closed her eyes, and her expression showed a bit of fatigue.

"Ah Heng, I miss my father and mother. When can I see them again?"

Xiao Heng couldn't help but loosen his grip on Fei Wan's hand. Even though he knew the girl couldn't see his face because she had her eyes closed, he still lowered his head, not wanting her to notice the guilt in his eyes.

"Wan'er, it will be done soon. I will take you back after a while."

Xiao Heng did not confess, but chose to continue the lie.

After Xiao Heng told this lie, he felt even more guilty. After comforting Fei Wan for a few words, he could no longer stay and hurriedly left on the pretext of handling government affairs.

One lie requires countless lies to cover it up.

Xiao Heng planned to continue to lie.

To satisfy his own selfish desires.

What Xiao Heng called love was just imposing his own ideas on others and then getting self-satisfaction.

Fei Wan doesn't want the love of such a person.

Guilt, that's enough.

Fei Wan eliminated Wang Zhangyin effortlessly, and the mission progressed a big step forward, but she was not happy about it.

What on earth was it that... made her so worried?

At this moment, Xiruo entered the inner hall.

She came in with a bowl of medicine and handed it to Fei Wan carefully.

"Princess, although it's an external injury, the imperial physician said it will heal faster if you take some medicine."

Fei Wan took the medicine and felt a little nauseous when she smelled it.

"Princess, this servant..."

Xi Ruo had been with her for so many days, and when she saw her frown, she seemed to remember something and stopped talking.

"Princess, wait a moment."

She turned around and went out to get some things. She opened it and the contents were revealed: some osmanthus candy.

"The princess asked me to put away the leftover osmanthus candy. Now it's just the right time to neutralize the bitterness."

These osmanthus candies were sent by Pei Yanzhou.

The medicine was very bitter, and Fei Wan originally planned to keep it, but seeing Xi Ruo's worried look, he suppressed his nausea and drank it.

Seeing this, Xi Ruo quickly handed over the osmanthus candy. Fei Wan took the osmanthus candy and suddenly remembered Xi Ruo's words: "Is there something you want to tell me?"

Hearing this, Xi Ruo's expression gradually became solemn. She took a deep breath before replying, "This servant does have something very important to report, and it is also related to the princess."
