Those narrow and long phoenix eyes were deep and sharp, like knives, staring at people and making them feel uncomfortable.
Chen Ningzhu lowered her head to avoid his gaze and bowed, "Your Highness the Crown Prince summoned me here. What is the matter?"
Hearing this, the other party's expression became even uglier.
"You still dare to ask me why I want to see you? Chen Ningzhu, have you forgotten your identity?"
"Instead of worrying about your own duties, you're so concerned about a servant every day. It's a hot day, and when I come back, there's not even anyone to serve me tea.
Chen Ningzhu, is this how you do your job?"
Shen Ningzhu concealed her strong disgust.
"What is my identity? Tell me."
"What's wrong with this slave? The slave you're talking about is the best person to me in this world. She's willing to sacrifice her life for me. If I treat her well, shouldn't I treat her well?"
"Also, if you feel thirsty, can't you pour yourself a glass of water? The teapot is right on the table. You're not disabled, so why do you have to be served by others?"
Besides, is Shen Ningzhu the only one in the Prince's Mansion? Can't I drink the water poured by others?
This bastard is really sick.
How can a living person let himself die of thirst? Why are you being so pretentious?
But, you came back quite early today?
Could it be that he was upset because the beauty stood him up, so he tried every means to cause trouble for her?
What a despicable man.
For a moment, Jiang Xuanyan was so shocked by the scolding that he didn't react.
I know that Shen Ningzhu has a poisonous mouth, but this is the first time she has used it on him.
"You're so shameless! Do you know who you're talking to?"
And, "As a servant, it is natural to sacrifice one's life for one's master, isn't that right?"
Originally, everything she had was given to her by her master, including her life.
This idea of exchanging hearts for each other is ridiculous.
In his opinion, winning people's hearts is unnecessary. Those who are disobedient can be killed directly. There is no need to go through so much trouble.
Shen Ningzhu suppressed the surging emotions in her eyes, sniffed, and when she raised her head, her face was full of sadness.
"I only see the newcomers laughing, but never hear the old ones crying? Who can say that Your Highness is disgusted with me?"
"That's right. I am of low status and a weak figure. I deserve to be treated like a dog and chased around."
"If Your Highness doesn't like me, I'll just leave. Why do you have to tease and humiliate me in various ways?"
After saying that, she covered her lips and ran out of the study crying.
Jiang Xuanyan stood there in a daze.
He just said one thing about this woman, and she started to talk a lot. Not only did she turn the tables on him, she also accused him of something she didn't even know existed.
It was unbearably hot outside and he just wanted to drink some tea. Was he wrong?
At some point, Jiang Yi walked in front of him.
“Your Highness, I saw that Miss Shen seemed to be crying very sadly when she left just now.”
Jiang Xuanyan cast a sinister glance at him, "Are you saying that what I just said was too much?"
Jiang Yi nodded involuntarily, but still said,
"I dare not. I just feel that since the young lady is a girl after all, we, as men, should at least give her some leniency, don't you agree?"
When he looked up, he met Jiang Xuanyan's cold gaze.
Jiang Yi couldn't help but shudder, and quickly clasped his fists, "I have something to do, so I'll take my leave first."
After saying that, he slipped away quickly.
The room was silent for a long time. For the first time, confusion appeared in Jiang Xuanyan's eyes. He felt a little agitated and reflected on whether he had really gone too far just now.
…
"Someone, go call the court doctor."
Not long after, the court physician from the Prince's Mansion came to the study.
"This old minister greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. May Your Highness be blessed."
"Well, excuse me. How are the preparations for the antidote going?"
The court physician replied, "Your Highness, the remaining ingredients for the final prescription have been prepared. Tonight, we only need to use the thousand-year-old snow lotus from the storehouse as a guide."
"Boil it and take it, and then use the technique of harmonizing yin and yang, and you and the young master will be completely cured."
Jiang Xuanyan breathed a sigh of relief.
After a while, he continued, "Remember, no one can leak out this matter, including Shen Ningzhu. Don't let her know."
When Chen Ningzhu ran halfway, she felt that it would be a waste to just run away, so she turned back.
Thinking that I was leaving anyway, I might as well make some money from this bastard before leaving.
Who knew I would hear these words just as I reached the door?
What is this bad man trying to hide from her?
At this time, the voice of the court doctor came,
"Forgive me for being so nosy, but why did you hide this from my lord?
Are you worried that she might be upset if she can't conceive? If so, Your Highness is worrying too much."
Chen Ningzhu's poisoning lasted for a very short time, only half a month.
As soon as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince discovered the poison, he ordered people to find ways to prepare an antidote, while sacrificing his own health and taking part of the poison into his own body.
Therefore, the bone-eroding poison did not harm the foundation of Chen Ningzhu, and there would be no difficulty in having children in the future.
Jiang Xuanyan, "Who said I was worried about her? I was just afraid that she would pester me, which would be very annoying."
"Besides, whether she is harmful to my offspring or not is none of my business."
"With her lowly body, she's not worthy of having my child. Even if I manage to get her pregnant, I will give her a bowl of safflower soup without hesitation and watch her drink it."
"No need to say more, just do it."
The court doctor's lips moved slightly, and he finally sighed and walked out of the study.
As a result, when he looked up, he saw Shen Ningzhu with a pale face.
The court doctor was stunned for a moment, looked back at the study, then looked at Shen Ningzhu, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes.
In the end, he just shook his head and strode away.
