Chapter 66: Do I need to use my tongue to tease me when I am sick or taking medicine?
Xie Yuting wondered if he was still asleep.
There was no way his sweet little princess would be so fanatical.
It's fake, it's fake. It must be an illusion caused by too much smoke.
The girl half-lay on him, holding his shoulders with both hands, and pushed his teeth apart with the tip of her soft tongue, slowly sliding in and passing the bitter medicine. Wait, medicine?
He finally understood what the little princess was doing. It turned out that she was feeding him medicine.
Jiang Yueying took the last sip of the medicine and was about to finish it when her eyes suddenly widened. She raised her head in panic and stared at the man who was sleeping with his eyes closed.
What's going on? Is this an illusion? I felt like someone licked me...
"Xie Yuting?"
The safe man didn't move.
Jiang Yueying wiped away her tears, touched her lips, and couldn't help but wonder, was she so hungry that she was hallucinating about kissing?
"I'm not crazy..."
A low chuckle reached her ears, and Jiang Yueying immediately looked at the man lying on the bed.
At some point, Xie Yuting opened his eyes and looked at her with a half-smile.
“…” This guy is awake!
"Are you trying to piss me off to death?"
Xie Yuting said weakly: "You are so cruel, my heart can't bear it..."
Jiang Yueying was anxious and angry, and was impressed by his shamelessness, but she still lowered her voice silently.
"Has Huaijin been here?"
"Prince Meng? How do you know he's been here, the Divine Calculator?"
Xie Yuting: "We're making such a big scene back at the East Palace, it's hard for him not to know. If he doesn't come, he'd be a complete jerk."
“…”Okay.
"He said he could cure Xiao Lang's poison," Jiang Yueying nodded. "I let him stay in the East Palace temporarily."
"Will it cause any underlying illness?"
"It shouldn't be. I think Prince Meng is quite confident."
Xie Yuting closed his eyes and seemed to feel much more at ease.
"Do you know who is the person who committed the assassination and arson?" Jiang Yueying put down the medicine bowl.
Now that she had calmed down, she realized that something was very wrong. The person behind the scenes must be of extraordinary status to have dared to instruct the young eunuchs around the emperor to falsely convey the imperial edict. Apart from a few princes, she could not think of anyone else.
But Xie Yuting behaved like a playboy to the outside world and grew up peacefully for more than ten years. How come someone suddenly wanted to kill him?
No, if Xie Yuting didn't come back, there wouldn't necessarily be any damage. She would be the one who would actually die...
Could it be that the group's target was her?
"If I'm not mistaken, it's the second one." Xie Yuting's eyes darkened, with a sinister hint flashing across them.
To mobilize the emperor's men and bring the assassin into the enclosure, one must be someone the emperor trusts very much.
Jiang Yueying was puzzled: "I didn't offend him, why did he want to assassinate me?"
"He's guessed I'm hiding my strength and is just testing me on purpose," Xie Yuting sneered. "He knows I care about you, so he wants to get rid of you and force me to fight back."
"As long as I lose control of my mind and reveal a flaw, my good father will immediately issue an edict to depose the crown prince without him having to do anything.
Since the second brother wants to break off relations, then let the whole world see clearly what kind of person the bright and clear-minded King Xuan is.
The other party mumbled a lot, but Jiang Yueying didn't hear it all. Her mind was full of the other party's words "He knows that I care about you". What did that mean? If she died, would Xie Yuting go crazy and take revenge on King Xuan... ?
Is it obvious that Xie Yuting likes her... But even if Xie Yuting likes her a little bit, it is probably because of her beautiful appearance and disguised personality...
There was no way he could like the real her, timid, delicate, and prone to crying.
I was just crying.
Thinking of this, she wiped away another tear in an attempt to hide her mistake.
Xie Yuting tugged at her sleeve, then asked, lying on the couch, "Did you just kiss me secretly?"
Jiang Yueying retorted: "No, I was afraid you would die, so I was feeding you medicine!"
"Do you need to use your tongue to seduce me when feeding me medicine?" Xie Yuting turned the tables and said, "You are clearly seducing me. You even don't let go of the patients. I didn't expect you to be such a little princess."
This is outrageous. Jiang Yueying's cheeks flushed and her tongue was tied: "You, you are talking nonsense! It was clearly you who moved first...!"
"I'm lying here unable to move, and you're still accusing me." Xie Yuting looked pitiful.
Jiang Yueying: "..."
But your mouth can move and you can kiss your friends. It's scary!
"Behave yourself. The doctor said you need to rest for a month." She pulled up the corner of the quilt to cover his mouth.
Xie Yuting pulled back the quilt: "Do you still want me to stay in a good mood?"
"yes."
"Come here and kiss me again."
"Why?"
"If you don't kiss me, I'll feel very uncomfortable," Xie Yuting said confidently, "Uncomfortable will make me sad, and sadness will aggravate my condition, and aggravated condition may lead to chronic illness..."
"If you don't kiss me, it's like murdering your husband."
Jiang Yueying was shocked by his twisted logic.
You're going to die if you don't kiss me, right? How shameless!
Xie Yuting tugged at her sleeve again and pretended to cough twice, causing his eyelids to turn slightly red, which made Jiang Yueying unable to help but soften her heart.
Forget it, why bother arguing with the patient.
She leaned over and placed a light kiss on the man's thin lips, but the kiss was instantaneous.
A kiss as soft and sweet as a snowflake.
Xie Yuting stared at her without blinking, his peach blossom eyes curved.
The scorching gaze made the man blush and his heart beat fast. Jiang Yueying covered his eyes and said fiercely: "The patient should sleep more and close his eyes."
Xie Yuting closed his eyes contentedly.
Jiang Yueying turned her back, rubbed her blushing face, and went out to find the imperial physician.
…
A sudden fire broke out in the enclosure, burning down the Wanhua Forest. The Crown Princess was assassinated. The Crown Prince took the Crown Princess away from the enclosure early and did not return to the palace without permission. These news became a hot topic.
Emperor Liang ordered a thorough investigation of the matter, and the final result was laughable. It said that the people who assassinated the Crown Princess were relatives of Liang soldiers. Their family members died on the battlefield, so they hated the people of Jiang and planned to assassinate the princess of Jiang.
Anyone can see that there is something fishy about this matter. How could an ordinary citizen enter the royal enclosure and bribe the eunuchs around the emperor?
But since the emperor believed it, others had to believe it even if they didn't.
East Palace, Ganmo Pavilion.
As Meng Shuzhang pounded the medicine, he said, "Your father, the emperor, is really partial. Is he afraid that if we investigate, we'll find out who he really is?"
Xie Yuting was used to it: "Now that the third brother is dead, he must protect the second brother tightly, otherwise who will inherit the throne in the future?"
"Prince Xuan is so arrogant, relying on his father, the Emperor, to become lawless," Meng Shuzhang chuckled. "The higher he stands, the harder he falls. He's been pretending to be a gentleman for so long that he really thinks he's pure and innocent. I wait for the day when he'll suffer the consequences."
"Let's not talk about them for now. Have you been enjoying your time in the military camp these past few years?"
Meng Shuzhang said calmly, "This prince lives in the open air, saving the dying and the wounded, and bathing in medicine every day. How can he compare to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who holds a soft, fragrant, and warm jade in his arms, so beautiful that he loses sight of heaven and earth."
Xie Yuting raised his eyebrows: "Oh, you are jealous of me."
Meng Shuzhang: “…”
"You don't have a wife, how pitiful."
Meng Shuzhang: “…”
"I haven't invited you to the wedding yet, but I'll invite you alone some other day."
Meng Shuzhang could no longer bear it: "Xie Yuting, you have changed. Has Princess Jiang drugged you?"
Xie Yuting said calmly: "This is called a match made in heaven."
After thinking it over carefully, Meng Shuzhang still didn't understand and couldn't help asking, "Isn't it said that Princess Anyi is domineering and cruel, and looks down on everyone? But that day, when you were lying unconscious in bed, your Crown Princess was crying like a tearful person, which scared me. What happened?"
No matter how you look at it, the Crown Princess doesn't have the bad temper that the rumors say.
Based on his understanding of Xie Yuting, this guy is definitely not someone who is blinded by his appearance, and there is no way he would like to kill innocent women.
Xie Yuting sighed: "It's a long story, but in short, she is not Princess Anyi, and she didn't do the evil things."
Meng Shuzhang's hands trembled and he almost scattered the herbs all over the ground. He couldn't believe what he heard.
Should he know such a big secret?
Let’s change the subject.
"By the way, the poison in Xiao Lang's body has been cleared, and his leg is fine. He just needs to be healed for a while longer. I hope the child won't act stubbornly and can rest and recover."
Xie Yuting's brows relaxed. "Your medical skills are improving. Would you consider taking a position at the Imperial Hospital?"
"My father will beat me to death." Meng Shuzhang pounded the herbs in the mortar hard, and the bitter juice came out, instantly spreading throughout the study.
"You went somewhere else to grind medicine, and now my study is filled with a bitter smell." Xie Yuting turned his face ruthless and immediately drove the man away.
"I'm despised at home, and I'm despised here too," Meng Shuzhang said sarcastically. "Don't think I don't know you've been pretending for a while, pretending to have difficulty breathing so the Crown Princess can feed you medicine. Bah, so despicable! I'll tell the Crown Princess right now."
"Exposing your true face as a villain."
Meng Shuzhang picked up his mortar and walked out with big strides, running into Jiang Yueying head-on.
Jiang Yueying happened to overhear this and blinked her innocent eyes and asked, "Prince, do you have something to tell me?"
"Alas, your Crown Prince," Meng Shuzhang sighed, "He is..."
The other party hesitated to speak. Jiang Yueying's heart tightened, thinking that Xie Yuting was in trouble. Her face was full of anxiety: "But there is something wrong with his body?"
Meng Shuzhang lowered his voice and said: "It's not that he has a physical problem, he has something wrong in his mind." After saying that, he shook his head and walked away.
Jiang Yueying was left confused. What was going on in her mind?
As I stepped into the study, I smelled a faint bitter herbal scent in the room.
Sunlight shone obliquely through the window lattice. Xie Yuting was sitting at the desk writing something. The pale golden light fell on the man's shoulders, as if covered by a layer of hazy gauze.
The Queen Mother ordered people to send him supplements every day, and with the recuperation during this period, his complexion became much rosier and his complexion was basically back to normal.
As soon as Jiang Yueying walked over, her wrist was grabbed and she was pulled into the man's arms, sitting sideways on his lap.
The man's palms skillfully kneaded her soft waist and rubbed against her affectionately. The elegant fragrance of ginkgo leaves diluted the bitter herbal smell in the air.
"What's on your mind?" Jiang Yueying asked suddenly.
Xie Yuting said decisively: "You are here."
Jiang Yueying frowned and said, "You're lying! Prince Meng said you have something to hide."
"There is indeed a little ghost who sucks people's essence." Xie Yuting lifted her chin and looked at her carefully.
The girl's cheeks were flushed, with a hint of red at the corners of her eyes, and her light-colored lips were painted with bright red lipstick. A ray of sunlight happened to fall on her head, and her small nose tip and lips were dotted with gold powder, shining brightly. She was half pure and half gorgeous, and was truly as beautiful as the bewitching spirit in the storybooks.
Jiang Yueying kicked him and said, "This is the study. How dare you behave like that? Put me down now."
"No, you haven't kissed me recently." He was the first to complain.
Thinking of the absurdity of the past month, Jiang Yueying's fair cheeks were covered with red. Xie Yuting always said that he easily choked when drinking medicine, and he coughed endlessly every time he took a sip. In desperation, she had to feed him mouth-to-mouth.
Although she knew it was most likely fake, Jiang Yueying didn't expose him. It was just a few kisses, as long as he was happy...
"You are completely healed and don't need me to feed you medicine."
Xie Yuting acted like a scoundrel: "No matter what, I'm heartbroken."
"If you feel heartbroken, go see a doctor. I can't treat illnesses..."
Xie Yuting drooped his head: "Okay, go ahead. I'm such an annoying person. Even my own Crown Princess despises me. Before I regret it, you should leave quickly..."
He said "go away", but in fact he wrapped his arms around her waist, leaving no gap at all. It was difficult for Jiang Yueying to move in his arms.
Jiang Yueying: "..."
Could you please stop pretending, Your Highness?
Jiang Yueying was afraid of laughing out loud, so she tried to say seriously, "I don't hate you."
"So you like me?" Xie Yuting suddenly leaned closer.
The enlarged handsome face was close at hand, his breath sprayed on his cheek, and his peach blossom eyes were shining, as if containing stars.
Facing such a pair of eyes, it was difficult for Jiang Yueying to lie.
From the moment Xie Yuting fell into a coma, the tears that burst out of his eyes made Jiang Yueying realize her feelings first. Because she cared about him, she lost control.
Even a domineering princess can truly fall in love with someone, right?
Even if I admit that I'm attracted to you, so what?
She can keep her true identity secret for the rest of her life, but she doesn't want her feelings to be exposed forever.
If you love someone, you should say it boldly.
Xie Yuting pressed on: "Do you really like me?"
Jiang Yueying stared into his eyes and opened her lips slightly: "I——"
"Knock knock knock!" The door suddenly rang.
Jiang Yueying swallowed her words and Xie Yuting frowned: "Come in."
The guards of the Eastern Palace came forward to report, saying in a deep voice, "Your Highness, the envoys from the Kingdom of Jiang are visiting Beiliang and have now arrived in Kyoto. Your Majesty has summoned them."
Xie Yuting's expression was unfriendly: "Who is the leading envoy?"
The guard said, "The one who has come is not an envoy, but Princess Anle of the Kingdom of Jiang. She told Your Majesty that she misses her sister and wants to stay in the Eastern Palace for a few days to rekindle their sisterly love."
"His Majesty has agreed, and Princess Anle is coming to the East Palace."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yueying suddenly turned pale and began to tremble all over.
