Chapter 24: Exposed
In the room, Xiao Linyuan tossed and turned on the bed.
It's already four o'clock in the evening, why hasn't she come yet? Could it be that Xiao Jin has come up with some disgusting tricks again?
"Wang Ge! Any news?"
Wang Ge jumped down from the roof and said with a bow, "There is no news. Your Majesty, don't worry. If something happens over there, the secret guards will send a signal."
"Um."
Xiao Linyuan supported his head with one hand, not wanting to sleep at all.
"Your Majesty, would you like me to give you some calming incense?"
"No need." Mianmian is so delicate, if something happens, he still has to help make a decision.
After all, she was his savior.
At this moment, a female voice suddenly came from the door. Xiao Linyuan sat up with force, leaned against the head of the bed, looked out through the window, and as expected, he saw the person he had been thinking about.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief and lay back down silently.
I was very tired from practicing walking today, and I felt sleepy at the moment. After a while, I began to breathe in long and regular sounds.
Wang Ge touched his chin, as if he had discovered something extraordinary.
Song Zijin was enthusiastically blocked at the gate of the courtyard.
Liao Yan looked at her with admiration. The dim light shone on Song Zijin's face, making her look even colder.
At first glance, he really looks like Roning at that time.
Chunsheng was a sensible man. He touched Liao Yan's hand and indicated to him that the door was not the place to talk.
The three of them came together to the pharmacy that the old princess built for Song Zijin.
The house was brightly lit, as if waiting for the owner to inspect it.
The shelves around were filled with various precious medicinal herbs. As Xiao Linyuan said, many of them were things she had only seen in books.
She rushed forward excitedly to explore it carefully, but Liao Yan followed her without any tact.
"Is the girl's mother Luo Ning?"
Song Zijin nodded.
Liao Yan was extremely excited and asked quickly, "But is it Luo Ning from the Divine Doctor Valley?"
Song Zijin took a step back, exchanged glances with Fu Yue, and became cautious. "No, my mother taught herself medicine."
"Oh, okay." Liao Yan was sad.
Why isn’t she that heroic woman?
If she were still alive, she would have a child as old as Mianmian, right?
But even if it wasn't that Luo Ning, Mianmian's medical skills couldn't be underestimated.
Thinking of this, Liao Yan took a step back and bowed.
"Doctor Liao, what are you doing?"
"I respect your skill in resurrecting the dead, and would like to discuss with you how to treat the prince."
He knew that his own worth might not even be half of Mianmian's, so he humbly added, "If you're willing, I'd be happy to help you, even as a medicine boy. The prince has already told me about opening a pharmacy, and I'll definitely help you."
Song Zijin was flattered and felt elated, but he still maintained basic rationality and returned the greeting.
"Doctor Liao, you're too kind. I just happen to have the antidote to the poison that the prince was poisoned with. As for the formula, I don't know it. It's something my mother left me, and I may not be able to make a second one in the future."
"It's okay. I won't participate in the detoxification, but I want to participate in the detoxification. Is that okay?"
Song Zijin thought about it and nodded in agreement.
I originally thought that Xiao Linyuan would arrange guards to help her, but I didn't expect that he would let Liao Yan help her.
Liao Yan must have some outstanding qualities to be able to become the doctor beside King Jin Yue. Doctors should learn from each other. Her roots are still shallow, and it is time for her to communicate more with others.
She looked towards the main house with a look of gratitude on her face.
The prince is such a good man!
The sleeping man didn't know what he was dreaming about, and his lips curled up unconsciously.
——
Song Zijin and Fu Yue were so excited last night that they chatted for half the night. As expected, they woke up late in the morning.
Just when Chunsheng wanted to apply to knock on the door of the west wing for the eighth time, the door of the west wing was finally opened from the inside.
Song Zijin walked out of the door and stretched. Out of the corner of his eye he saw someone under the sycamore tree. He turned around and saw Xiao Linyuan looking into his eyes.
Oops, I got so carried away that I forgot I was still living under someone else's roof...
"Good morning, Your Highness!" She greeted him with forced composure.
Xiao Linyuan's hairstyle today was the same as yesterday. The only difference was that he changed into a dark blue casual suit, which made him look less majestic and more noble.
He sat upright, his back straight, standing firm like a pine or cypress, his phoenix eyes blinking gently, as if he could easily see through everything in the world.
Song Zijin searched his mind and it seemed that he always paid attention to etiquette.
He is a typical person who restrains himself and returns to propriety.
Well, it matches his handsome and upright image very well.
The morning breeze brought the fragrance of flowers in the garden, mixed with the scent of morning dew, which was refreshing and pleasant.
Perhaps she had been in a daze for too long, or perhaps she was not used to being stared at so blatantly, Xiao Linyuan raised his hand and bent his fingers to beckon her over.
"Aren't you hungry?"
Song Zijin came back to his senses and said, "Come right away!"
She first returned to the inner room, took Fu Yue, and walked to Xiao Linyuan's side.
"Your Highness, this is my sister, Fu Yue." Song Zijin bowed.
Fu Yue was a little afraid of Xiao Linyuan, but she still followed her daughter in paying her respects, "This servant greets the prince."
Xiao Linyuan glanced at Fu Yue with a faint look in his eyes, "Is this your maid?"
"No." Song Zijin quickly denied.
The identity that Xiao Jin fabricated for her was a maid bought by the concubine of the Xiao family. How could a maid have a maid?
"She's my sister who works with me. We have the best relationship, so I begged Xiao Jin to allow me to bring Fu Yue here."
Xiao Linyuan laughed but didn't expose her.
It seems that this girl's identity is not that simple.
No wonder she only reported her mother and sister's names to the secret guard. I'm afraid her father is not an ordinary person.
No problem, once the secret guards find out where her family is, he will also know.
"Sit down and eat."
Song Zijin was a little uneasy. Did he just reveal his true identity?
I secretly observed Xiao Linyuan's face. He looked normal. He picked up the spoon slowly and drank the porridge elegantly.
"No appetite?" Xiao Linyuan suddenly asked her.
"Huh? No, it's delicious."
After saying that, she quickly picked up the dishes with chopsticks and put them into her bowl, and drank it with the porridge.
After the heavy rain a few days ago, the temperature rose suddenly. Even in the early morning, the air was a bit stuffy, but the porridge was still so cool that it didn't need to be blown away, which showed that it had been out of the pot for a long time.
Song Zijin felt a little sorry, "Your Majesty, you don't have to wait for me to eat together in the future."
Xiao Linyuan squinted at her and said, "Why, I don't have the honor to dine with Miss Mianmian?"
"No, no!" Song Zijin waved his hands quickly, "It's just that I always get up late and I'm afraid that the prince will be hungry."
"Then you can't get up earlier?"
As he spoke, he picked up a piece of cold-mixed purple celery and put it in her bowl. "Eat more. This helps you sleep."
"..." Song Zijin pouted. She didn't like eating purple celery because it tasted bad.
But this was picked by Xiao Linyuan, so she didn't dare to resist and forced herself to chew a few bites before swallowing.
Hmm, it tastes terrible.
Xiao Linyuan saw her embarrassment and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"It's not right to be picky about food. We're both maids, so why does Fu Yue look so chubby?"
Fuyue:?
