When Ning Wan woke up from the quilt again, Shen Jingyi had, as expected, performed another disappearance scene.
But this time Ning Wan was obviously much calmer. She was no longer wary of Shen Jingyi's presence. She lifted the bed curtain and called for people directly.
Suddenly, Ning Wan's gaze fell on the pillow.
The place where Shen Jingyi had been lying, which was originally empty, now had a medicine bottle. It looked no different from the bottle that Shen Jingyi had used to take medicine last night.
Thinking of what Shen Jingyi said in her ear last night, Ning Wan reached out and picked up the medicine bottle. She also found a note next to the bottle: "One pill a day, and you will be back in three days."
Ning Wan looked at the note in her hand and smiled, then opened the medicine bottle and poured the pills into her palm, exactly three, no more, no less.
Haha, he is quite cautious. Is he afraid that if he gives her too much, she will run away?
But isn’t he afraid that he will give this pill to the people in the Imperial Hospital for research?
Ning Wan refilled the bottle with pills and stuffed them under her pillow.
Forget it, it’s useless anyway, so there’s no need to bother with it.
As expected, the person who came was still Xiaoju.
Compared with yesterday, Xiaoju's movements were obviously lighter. She even stood at the door for a moment, but then she quickly walked into the room and closed the door.
"Xiaoju, what's wrong with me?" Ning Wan rubbed his forehead and prepared to get out of bed. Thinking about how he was unconscious for a whole day yesterday, he asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Although I know that I will not live long, I still have to perform the play I have to perform.
Xiaoju's eyes were full of hesitation, as if she wanted to tell Ning Wan the truth, but a hint of regret also appeared. She anxiously avoided Ning Wan's gaze, not daring to look at Ning Wan.
But the other person's eyes, as red as a rabbit, made it difficult for Ning Wan not to notice the problem.
"Xiaoju?" Ning Wan frowned, looked at Xiaoju who didn't respond for a long time, and called out again.
Xiaoju realized that her distraction was suspicious and quickly reacted. She looked at Ning Wan who had just woken up, opened her mouth again and again, but couldn't say what she wanted to say.
Seeing that Xiaoju didn't say anything, Ning Wan didn't force her. Just as she was about to stand up, she heard a cry of surprise: "Your Highness!"
The urgent cry made Ning Wan pause. Ning Wan looked up, a little surprised at Xiaoju's fuss.
Before Ning Wan could say anything, Xiao Ju quickly walked to her, helped her sit down, and then squatted in front of her: "Princess, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"
Xiaoju looked at Ning Wan in front of her. She didn't know if it was her illusion, but the princess seemed to look much better today.
Xiaoju looked at her as if she were a fragile doll, afraid that Ning Wan might feel uncomfortable.
Ning Wan was about to say that she was fine when she suddenly stared blankly at Xiaoju, who was squatting beside her. She frowned slightly and said, "Xiaoju, who hurt you?"
Ning Wan suddenly put away her smile and asked seriously, but her hand slowly approached the wound on Xiaoju's forehead.
There was a blood scar on his forehead, slightly scabbed over, looking like he had just been hit. If I was right, it must have been yesterday.
Hearing this, Xiaoju instinctively wanted to step back, but was grabbed by Ning Wan who was quick-eyed and quick-handed.
After getting closer, Ning Wan discovered that Xiaoju had deliberately pulled down a few strands of hair today, as if to cover the wound on her forehead.
It's just that the close distance exposes the wound without leaving any room for doubt.
After realizing that hiding was useless, Xiaoju subconsciously raised her hand to cover it, but this act of covering one's ears and stealing the bell was of no use at all.
"Xiaoju is fine. It was dark at night and we bumped into each other accidentally. No one bullied Xiaoju." Xiaoju's voice choked uncontrollably because of Ning Wan's words of protection, but she still forced a smile.
Ning Wan naturally knew that the truth was definitely not so, but she looked at Xiaoju who wanted to hide it. Just as she was about to say a few words, she suddenly felt an itch in her throat and couldn't help coughing.
But just a simple dry cough made Xiaoju suddenly nervous. She hurriedly stood up to help Ning Wan catch her breath, staring at her with wide eyes, fearing that her master would cough up blood.
Fortunately, Ning Wan just had a simple dry cough.
But even so, Xiaoju's heart was still hanging high.
She had not forgotten the attitude of those imperial doctors yesterday, and she was still frightened by the fact that Ning Wan had been in a coma for the entire day.
Looking at Ning Wan who was deliberately avoiding the topic, Xiaoju felt uncomfortable.
The princess is such a good person, why did she have to encounter such a thing?
There was a knock on the door, "Sister?"
It’s Ning Mu.
Ning Wan naturally recognized Ning Mu's voice. She glanced at Xiaoju beside her and then looked towards the door.
Ning Wan was about to get up from the bed.
But Xiaoju, knowing her princess's physical condition, instinctively wanted to stop it and let the princess rest in bed.
But Ning Wan gently pushed him away and said, "Help me get my clothes."
Hearing Ning Wan say this, Xiaoju swallowed the words in her mouth again, quickly took the clothes and helped Ning Wan put them on.
"Come in, Amu." After everything was ready, Ning Wan said towards the door.
Ning Mu gently pushed open the door in front of him and walked into the room. He saw Ning Wan already dressed neatly. His eyes drooped, but in an instant a smile appeared on his face again.
Ning Wan pretended not to notice anything unusual and said to Ning Mu with a smile, "Amu, what brought you here yesterday?"
I have to say, these people's acting skills are really not that good.
The expression on her face made it clear that she wouldn't live long.
Ning Mu paused, but quickly recovered. He stared at Ning Wan's face and asked nervously, "Sister, do you feel unwell?"
Ning Wan: "Why are you asking that? Did the imperial physician say something?"
Ning Wan frowned, seeming confused by what Ning Mu asked.
Ning Mu also realized that his question was too direct, but when he thought of what the imperial physician had said, and looked at the living Ning Wan in front of him, he said, "The imperial physician said...my sister was poisoned..."
Ning Mu paused again and again for this short sentence, and even at the end, he turned his head away, not daring to look Ning Wan in the eye again.
Ning Mu had thought about hiding it from Ning Wan, but this body belonged to Ning Wan.
No matter how hard he tried to hide it, it seemed so powerless, so he might as well tell the truth.
Ning Wan suddenly froze as if struck by lightning.
Xiaoju stared at Ning Wan with some fear, but she held her hand tightly, fearing that Ning Wan would not be able to bear such a great shock.
"What did the imperial physician say?" Ning Wan spoke again after a long pause.
But the fear and panic of death were reflected in his eyes.
Ning Mu looked at Ning Wan like this and couldn't say the word "more than a month".
