Hearing Situ Xunxiao's strange voice, Zong Zheng Xiaoting subconsciously wanted to escape.
However, she seemed unable to escape from the control. Seeing the desire and anger in Situ Xunxiao's eyes, she suddenly felt that she had stepped on a minefield. She secretly cursed in her heart. Who could have thought that the medicine powder that she had replaced was in Zong Zheng Yunchun's hands just to increase the dosage? No matter how she thought about it, she could not guess that Zong Zheng Yunchun took the medicine to mix it with the medicine in her hand to increase the efficacy. This was a big mistake!
Seeing Situ Xunxiao in danger, Zongzheng Xiaoting swallowed and said, "Well... I'm not feeling well."
"Hmm?" Situ Xunxiao stayed awake and tried his best to suppress the effects of the drug, but he had no intention of relaxing.
"You and I have both been poisoned." Zong Zheng Xiaoting looked at the dangerous light in Situ Xunxiao's eyes and hurriedly thought of an excuse. However, her words were pressed further by Situ Xunxiao and were suppressed on the couch.
"I have asked Doctor Chen, and there is absolutely no problem." Situ Xunxiao raised the corners of his mouth, and the arc made him look arrogant and domineering. Zongzheng Xiaoting's eyes widened. It turned out that this was what he had just asked Doctor Chen! Suddenly, Zongzheng Xiaoting's face flushed.
"You..." Zong Zheng Xiaoting didn't know what else to say except the word "you".
As for Situ Xunxiao, he just wanted to intimidate Zongzheng Xiaoting, but he never thought that even though he tried his best to suppress the spread of the drug's effect, he still couldn't resist her blushing face. For a moment, the fever in his eyes became more obvious.
“Situ Xunxiao!” Zongzheng Xiaoting gritted his teeth and said, “I don’t want you to be under the control of the drug and be in an unclear situation…”
Before she could finish her words, the person who was pressing on her quickly took her away as if she were a venomous snake or a ferocious beast. Before she could react, she heard the door slammed shut.
Chen Xianzhi and others who were guarding outside saw Zong Zheng Xiaoting being thrown out and heard cursing from inside the house.
"Princess, are you okay?"
"Doctor Chen, hurry up and prepare medicine for the prince." Zong Zheng Xiaoting's mouth curled up happily, with a smile in his eyes. Situ Xunxiao just wanted to punish him slightly, but he was frightened for a moment, which made him feel proud. However...
Zongzheng Xiaoting narrowed his eyes. Zongzheng Yunchun was so ruthless, it seemed that he was determined to win. However, after all the commotion today, it was strange that Situ Xunxiao's poison didn't take effect!
Just when Zong Zheng Xiaoting was confused, Nangong Muxi also hurried over.
"What's the situation?" Nangong Muxi frowned slightly as he looked at the people who were locked outside.
"I don't know." Zong Zheng Xiaoting shook his head, "But today is already the sixth day."
"Ge Yuye will show up tomorrow." Nangong Muxi frowned, "I just don't know if Xun Xiao can hold on."
Zongzheng Xiaoting and Nangong Muxi both looked at Chen Xianzhi, only to see that he also had a frown on his face. "It's been a whole day. Under normal circumstances, the prince wouldn't be able to be awake today, uh... without hurting the princess."
Everyone present understood what Chen Xianzhi said. At this moment, Zong Zheng Xiaoting was safe and sound outside the house, but inside the house was the War King alone with the suppressing drug. This meant that the War King was still awake at this moment. This situation was really unbelievable.
"So?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting raised his eyebrows, "What if something unexpected happens tonight?"
"We can only suppress it, we can't delay it any longer." Chen the Seer shook his head. "If the prince really has an attack, we can only control it manually, there is no other way. If the Regent knows when the uncle will arrive, can we go there and wait for him?"
Chen Xianzhi's words made Zongzheng Xiaoting and Nangong Muxi nod in unison. Under their instructions, Chen Xianzhi hurriedly developed and sent out the medicine that could suppress Situ Xunxiao's dosage.
After a night of torment, before dawn, Situ Xunxiao, accompanied by Zongzheng Xiaoting and Nangong Muchi, drove to a small bamboo house in the mountains outside the city under the cover of darkness.
The bamboo building is next to a stream, and in the hazy mist, it seems to be isolated from the world.
Zong Zheng Xiaoting got off the carriage and saw a figure sitting on the ground not far away. He blinked in confusion and saw Nangong Muxi gestured to him and led everyone to a small path surrounded by flowers.
"Follow closely, don't go the wrong way." Nangong Muxi said.
"What is this?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting looked at the beautiful scenery in front of him, then looked at Nangong Muxi who was looking outside from time to time at the place where the figure just appeared, feeling a little confused.
"This is the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams Formation." Situ Xunxiao said in a low voice. He had been exhausted all night due to the effects of the medicine, and there was fatigue in his voice.
"This place doesn't look like a man's residence." Zong Zheng Xiaoting followed Nangong Muxi step by step, a little puzzled. Ge Yuye is a man, how can there be such feminine decorations? Zong Zheng Xiaoting bent over the small courtyard behind the bamboo building not far from the flower cluster. The decorations were really a habit only women would have, and he couldn't help but frown.
Seeing Zongzheng Xiaoting's confusion, Nangong Muxi shrugged, "Don't worry, this Ge Yuye is not that weird, his sexual orientation is unknown, this is not his house, but the house of the person he is looking for."
Zong Zheng Xiaoting looked at the warmth and expectation in Nangong Muxi's eyes, and couldn't help but glance at Situ Xunxiao. He saw that he still had some resentment and glared at him, but still said in a low voice, "Be patient."
As Nangong Muxi pushed open the bamboo door and wiped some things carefully, Zongzheng Xiaoting felt more and more strange. The owner of this bamboo building seemed to be of great significance to Nangong Muxi. Thinking back to the fact that he brought Situ Xunxiao here just to have one more Chen Xianzhi, it was understandable that he regarded this place as a treasure.
Not long after everyone closed their eyes to rest, the sky gradually brightened, and a goose-yellow figure entered the bamboo house. She looked at the person in the house with her beautiful eyes, and blinked in confusion. When she saw Nangong Muxi sleeping lightly on the rattan chair, she couldn't help but curl her lips, took off her cloak with her delicate hands, and gently put it on him.
Turning around, he met Situ Xunxiao's inquiring and wary gaze.
When their eyes met, Situ Xunxiao finally relaxed his hostility and nodded slightly to the newcomer. Looking at the sleeping people, the woman smiled slightly, and after making a hissing gesture to Situ Xunxiao, she leaned against Nangong Muxi with peace of mind and rested like this.
Situ Xunxiao closed his eyes again, and his lips softened. No wonder Nangong Muxi pretended to be asleep, and he held Zongzheng Xiaoting's hand, exerting a little force to hold her in his arms.
