Chapter 24 Throwing Yourself into His Highness's Arms
Si Nan's eyes lit up when he heard that.
The last time he investigated this matter, His Highness didn't care much.
Si Nan did not hesitate and immediately began to describe in vivid detail the Crown Princess's experience in the Xie family.
At the end, Si Nan said carefully: "Your Highness, Si Bei sent a message back saying that a very famous witch doctor was found in the southwest..."
The real purpose is revealed.
Xiao Ji's cold eyes swept over Si Nan, and after a long silence, he said, "Yes."
Sinan was overjoyed.
He happily left the study and went to tell Si Bei the message.
His Highness had been accustomed to seeing doctors since he was a child, but in recent years he had given up hope and was unwilling to see even the doctor again.
Thank you, Princess.
Main courtyard.
Zhao Ying did not come to Beijing to play this time, but mainly to understand the market and expand the market, so naturally he did not stay in the Prince's Mansion all day.
As soon as Zhao Ying left, Zhu Qing whispered, "Crown Princess, I went to ask quietly, but the palace doctor doesn't have your Highness' pulse record."
"The court doctor came with His Highness when he moved into the Crown Prince's Mansion. It has been many years."
Xie Yao nodded.
The last time she pretended to be sick, she asked His Highness about it, and His Highness said that the palace doctor could be trusted.
The court physician does not have a pulse record, so it must be His Highness's instruction.
"I understand." Xie Yao nodded and told Zhu Qing, "Don't tell anyone about this anymore."
"Yes." Zhu Qing knew the seriousness of the matter and responded immediately.
Just then, the maid's voice came from outside, "Crown Princess, this is a letter from Princess He Yi."
He comes with ill intentions.
Xie Yao didn't think that there would be any good thing for Xiao Ning to look for her. The last time she pushed Ye Ping'an out, she had already ruined Xiao Ning's plan.
Xiao Ning must be wishing to kill her at this moment.
Xie Yao took the post and glanced at it.
Xiao Ning said in the invitation that the banquet was specially held to thank her.
"Just reject it." Xie Yao glanced at him and then looked away, "Just say that I appreciate your kindness, but I'm not feeling well today and can't leave."
If the banquet is not good, she doesn't want to go.
Now that the crown prince is still alive, the second prince's party is at its peak. After the crown prince died early in the previous life, the second prince immediately became the object of everyone's support.
Before she died, she heard Xiao Ning and Song Wenbo mention that His Majesty intended to appoint a crown prince.
She couldn't bear to see this happen.
Her top priority is to get pregnant and give birth to a child as soon as possible, otherwise two years later... will be her death!
"yes."
Yuyan took the post and left.
Xie Yao went to the study. She had finished reading this medical book and wanted to change it for another one.
When Xie Yao arrived at the study, she immediately noticed something was wrong.
There is a sliding wooden shelf next to the bookshelf. The shelf is not high, but it looks like you can definitely reach the books on the top shelf by standing on it.
Prepared for her?
Xie Yao looked at Xiao Ji with a smile in her crescent eyes.
Xiao Ji was also looking at her.
The two looked at each other, and Xiao Ji looked away as if nothing had happened.
Xie Yao's smile grew even wider, and she said in a crisp voice, "Thank you, Your Highness."
Xiao Ji: “…”
He was silent for a moment and finally thought of the wording, but when he looked again, Xie Yao was already standing on the shelf, selecting books very seriously.
Xie Yao quickly selected a book and was about to step down from the shelf when her eyes turned as if she had thought of something.
"Your Highness, could you please come over here for a moment?"
Xiao Ji's throat rolled, and then he silently put down the book in his hand and walked towards Xie Yao, "What's the matter?"
Seeing Xiao Ji standing in front of the shelf, Xie Yao cried out "Ouch" and fell directly towards him.
Xiao Ji reacted quickly, subconsciously reaching out to catch her, and holding her tightly in his arms! The soft and sweet fragrance suddenly entered his arms, and Xiao Ji's body stiffened.
He put Xie Yao on the ground, his face slightly dark, "Xie Yao!"
It was the first time that Xiao Ji was so angry.
Xie Yao was really frightened. She immediately stood up straight and looked at Xiao Ji obediently. Her voice was soft, "Your Highness..."
Xiao Ji was speechless when being looked at like this. He didn't even know what he was angry about.
The Crown Princess was too bold. If he hadn't caught it...
Xie Yao reached out, grabbed the corner of Xiao Ji's sleeve, and shook it gently, "Your Highness, I know I was wrong."
"What's wrong?" Xiao Ji endured and endured, and in the end did not pull the corner of his sleeve out from the slender and green fingertips, even though it only required a little effort.
"I shouldn't have thrown myself into His Highness's arms."
Xiao Ji's body stiffened slightly. Is this called throwing yourself into someone's arms?
Xiao Ji was so angry that he laughed. He flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked back to his original seat to continue reading, obviously not wanting to pay any more attention to Xie Yao.
But when Xie Yao looked at Xiao Ji's back, the corners of her lips still curled up slightly.
His Highness's attitude at this moment was much milder than on his wedding night, and he was not even angry at her words.
Xie Yao walked out in a very good mood.
Walking to the door, he leaned over to look at Xiao Ji again, "I know that with His Highness here, I will definitely not get hurt."
When Xiao Ji looked up, he only saw a piece of her clothes fluttering in the wind.
"Your Highness?"
When Si Nan entered the room, he met the eyes of his master. He looked in the direction where the Crown Princess left, and then looked at the appearance of His Highness.
"Your Highness, the Crown Princess has left."
Xiao Ji's eyes turned cold instantly, "Stop talking too much."
Si Nan shut up immediately. His Highness always said he was too talkative recently, but he never did that before...
He had fallen out of favor after all.
Dinner was served in the main courtyard as usual. With Zhao Ying present, Xie Yao changed her previous practice of keeping to herself.
He was very active in putting food into Xiao Ji's bowl.
Sea bass, yam, leek...scallop and winter melon soup.
As Xiao Ji was eating, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
There were so many medical books in his study, and he had read them all, so after linking these dishes together, he quickly found the common points.
These dishes have the effect of nourishing yin and tonifying the kidney.
Xiao Ji raised his eyes and took a deep look at Xie Yao. Xie Yao looked normal and there was no sign of anything wrong...
Maybe it’s a problem with the kitchen.
Xiao Ji put down his chopsticks, "Tonight..."
"Your Highness." Xie Yao interrupted him and looked at the gloomy sky outside. "Look at the weather, it should be thundering and raining today. I'm scared."
Zhao Ying is still here!
This was Xiao Ji’s first reaction.
He coughed and nodded, "Got it."
He immediately stood up and left quickly.
Xie Yao frowned and understood... Should I come tonight or not?
If he didn't come, wouldn't all the food she prepared on the table be in vain?
"Yaoyao." Zhao Ying said with a smile.
Xie Yao coughed, her cheeks slightly red, "Sister Ying, I..."
"I understand. I understand everything." Zhao Ying would not laugh at Xie Yao. "This is just a little fun thing between you and His Highness."
Zhao Ying lowered her voice when saying the last three words and blinked at Xie Yao.
Xie Yao's face got even redder!
"Before I came back today, I met someone who gave me a letter." Zhao Ying changed the subject very quickly, "He said the letter was for you."
Um?
Xie Yao was very puzzled, but she still took the envelope from Zhao Ying, opened it and took a look.
"The prince's secret."
There were only five words written on the envelope, and no signature.
However, Xie Yao instantly understood who the person who sent the letter was - Xiao Ning.
