Xun Niannian nodded, "My waist, arms, legs... everything hurts!"
Dong Xing said distressedly, "Miss, I will apply some medicine and rub it on you later?"
"The maid in the mansion told me that this is normal. Just bear with it and it will be fine in two days."
"I know." Xun Niannian knew that it was normal. Even a man of iron would probably fall apart after being tormented like that, let alone she was just a body of flesh and blood.
"Miss, let me help you put on your clothes." Dong Xing brought the clothes over and helped Xun Niannian put them on.
Xun Niannian usually doesn't ask others to do these things.
But today she felt pain all over, so she didn't refuse.
"By the way, where did the prince go?" Xun Niannian glanced at Dong Xing who was sorting out her clothes and asked, "He didn't go to the government office again, did he?"
Dong Xing paused and said, "It seems that the prince went out for a while, but he came back before an incense stick. He stayed with you in the room for a while, and then someone came to invite him, saying that the Prince of Zhennan wanted him to come over."
"If I am not mistaken, the prince should be meeting the Prince of Zhennan in the front yard now."
In the front yard, in a side hall.
"Ah, Fangrong already knows she was wrong, please forgive her this time."
Chen Lianhe raised his eyes and looked at the Prince of Zhennan, "Grandfather, for your sake, I can let her go."
"However, she can't stay in the palace any longer."
He covered his nose and coughed, then continued, "Grandfather, I know you and grandma love her, but no matter how much you love her, you still have to teach her well and let her know what she can and cannot do."
"Cousin Fangrong is not young anymore, it's time for her to get married. If my uncle and his family haven't found someone they like yet, I can ask my father for an imperial decree to find a good marriage for her."
"Cousin, Grandfather, no, I don't want to marry anyone else!"
Li Fangrong suddenly rushed in.
She looked at Chen Lianhe with tears and snot, and said with regret.
"Cousin, I'm sorry. I was bewildered yesterday and did something like that. I asked the servants in the mansion to put drugs in your tea."
"I really know I was wrong, cousin, please don't chase me away!"
Li Fangrong did feel a little regretful.
But more of it is depression.
She didn't expect that under such circumstances, her cousin still had the strength to knock her out!
The person who sold her the medicine said that the medicine not only had that effect, but could also make the other person feel weak and powerless.
At that time, she thought, in this way, wouldn't her cousin allow her to do whatever she wanted?
Unexpectedly, that woman named Xun Nian Nian would suddenly come over.
Li Fangrong could feel that Chen Lianhe had no strength left at that time. It was only when he heard Xun Niannian's voice that he suddenly burst out with inexplicable strength and knocked her unconscious.
Damn Xun Nian Nian, not only did she ruin her good deeds, but also...
When Li Fangrong thought that it was she who had caused her cousin and her to have a relationship, she felt like vomiting blood.
Of course, the most important thing right now is to prevent her cousin from kicking her out of the palace.
"Ah..." Prince Zhennan looked at Chen Lianhe, the meaning in his eyes was very clear.
It was to ask him to forgive Li Fangrong and agree to let her continue to stay in the mansion.
Chen Lianhe was very resolute, "Grandfather, I still say the same thing. I can let her go for what she did this time, but she can't stay in the palace any longer."
Prince Zhennan saw Chen Lianhe's determination, and he frowned, somewhat displeased.
However, he did not continue to persuade.
Instead, he looked at Li Fangrong and said, "Alright, alright, stop embarrassing yourself. Hurry up and pack your things. I'll send you out of Beijing in two days when Grandpa is done with his work."
"Grandfather, Fangrong, please don't leave. Grandfather, didn't you promise Fangrong that you would make her happy? Grandfather..."
"Shut up! If you keep talking nonsense, I'll have someone send you away right now!" With a stern look, Li Fangrong finally shut her mouth.
He turned and left very reluctantly.
Prince Zhennan sighed and patted Chen Lianhe on the shoulder.
"Don't think too much."
"Grandpa personally escorted her out of the house."
As Xun Niannian walked to the front yard, she saw Li Fangrong with a sad face and Prince Zhennan with a dignified face walking out of the side hall one after another.
From a distance, Li Fangrong saw Xun Niannian across the corridor, and she glared at her hatefully.
As if telling her: [Don’t be complacent, I won’t give up! ]
Xun Niannian shrugged his shoulders and didn't take her provocation seriously.
The Prince of Zhennan simply glanced at her indifferently and then looked away.
When Xun Nian Nian walked to the door of the side hall, Chen Lianhe was also walking out.
Seeing her suddenly appear here, Chen Lianhe was slightly stunned.
His eyes swept over her delicate neck that was deliberately covered by a turtleneck, and some scenes from yesterday immediately emerged in his mind...
He quickly looked away and coughed unconsciously, "Why are you here?"
Xun Niannian did not answer him, but glanced in the direction where Li Fangrong and Prince Zhennan disappeared.
She pouted, "Your cousin Fangrong seems to hate me even more. The look she gave me just now was as if she wanted to eat me alive!"
"Then let her try!" Chen Lianhe said coldly.
Xun Niannian squinted her lips again, "I don't really care about Li Fangrong, but Lord Zhennan..."
"He won't secretly teach me a lesson for the sake of his precious niece, will he?"
Chen Lianhe raised his hand and brushed the hair around Xun Niannian's ears.
"I believe that grandpa would not do such a thing. Don't think too much. This is Kyoto, the He Palace."
"You are the mistress of the He Palace. No one dares to touch you easily."
Xun Niannian pursed her lips and stopped dwelling on this topic.
Chen Lianhe is right, this is Kyoto, this is Prince He’s Palace.
Duke Zhennan is a local lord after all, he shouldn't be so petty about such things and wouldn't do anything to a little girl like her!
"Well, are you okay?" Xun Niannian looked at Chen Lianhe's face carefully.
The way he looked yesterday really scared her.
"What do you think?" Chen Lianhe asked with a chuckle.
The look that falls on her makes it impossible not to have crooked thoughts!
"It's you, on the contrary. Sorry, I was a bit too wild yesterday... Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
"Yes, I feel uncomfortable everywhere!" Xun Niannian glared at him fiercely, "Don't think that I can forgive you just by saying sorry!"
"Then what can my lady do to forgive me?" He leaned close to her ear and whispered, "How about next time, I'll ask you to come back?"
Xun Nian Nian: “…”
The look she gave someone became complicated.
Is this what all men do after they do that?
"Let's go. I'll take you to a place."
"Where?" Xun Niannian asked vigilantly.
Chen Lianhe curled his lips and smiled, "Don't worry, it's a good place."
He glanced at her and continued to explain, "I know of a warm spring in the northern suburbs. After you soak in it, I guarantee that you won't have any aches or pains in your body."
Xun Niannian's eyes lit up when she heard this.
Hot springs are really good for relieving muscle soreness!
Xun Nian Nian naturally did not refuse. After making some preparations, she followed Chen Lian He out of the mansion...
