Chapter 995 The Princess is Unwell
Xiao Zhan glanced at him calmly and said, "Your words and actions are very similar. If we hadn't witnessed the death of the eldest son of the previous emperor falling off his horse, we would really think you were him."
"I also heard that the eldest princess and the eldest son of the late emperor had a deep relationship."
"Indeed."
Xiao Zhan responded: "The eldest son of the late emperor has two wishes. One is that he hopes the world will be unified and the people will live and work in peace and contentment. The other is that he hopes Xiaoxue will live a peaceful, happy and worry-free life. Xiaoxue feels the same way about the eldest son of the late emperor."
"It is true."
Yun Zhen sighed: "The brother-sister relationship between the eldest princess and the eldest son of the late emperor is really enviable."
In this case, maybe he should really tell the truth to Jiang Xue. Although his experience sounds like a fairy tale, if she believes it, then he will be one step closer to his goal.
Xiao Zhan looked at him coldly: "Indeed."
Yun Zhen bowed respectfully and said, "I won't bother you today. I'll take my leave."
Xiao Zhan watched him leave, a hint of depth flashing in his eyes.
The conversation just now made him suspicious. What was Yun Zhen's purpose for this trip? It didn't look like he was here to hurt Jiang Xue, but he always felt that something was a little strange.
When Xiao Zhan saw Jiang Xue, she was staring at the chessboard in a daze.
Seeing him approaching, she turned around with a sweet smile on her face: "Yun Che, you're back!"
Xiao Zhan walked closer and noticed that there was an unfinished game of chess on the board.
Apparently, she was playing chess with Yun Zhen just now. However, before the game was over, she asked Yun Zhen to leave. Did he say or do something to make her feel uncomfortable?
"Xiaoxue, I met Yun Zhen when I returned home. He said that you gave him an order to expel him. What's going on?" Xiao Zhan asked.
Jiang Xue waved at him: "As long as you let me kiss you, I will tell you."
Xiao Zhan moved forward as she said, and she kissed him on the cheek several times, smiling with satisfaction.
"Didn't I promise you that I would look at Yun Zhen less? Today, when we were playing chess, I suddenly realized that I had looked at him many times, so I asked him to leave."
Hearing this, Xiao Zhan chuckled, pinched her nose and said, "My little princess is starting to make people happy."
"I'm not lying. You see, I'm talking with my eyes open now."
Jiang Xue said mischievously, with an innocent smile flashing in her eyes, and her beautiful eyes were full of agility and playfulness.
"Yes, you didn't lie."
Xiao Zhan gently held her in his arms, kissed her eyes lightly, and then kissed her lips deeply, as if he wanted to seal this sweetness forever.
When Jiang Xue found out that Xiao Zhan wanted to carry her to bed, she gently pushed him away and said, "Yun Che, let's forget about it today."
"Um?"
Xiao Zhan thought for a moment and said, "Your period is still a while away." Ever since her cycle became regular, he had been keeping careful note of it.
"I just feel really tired and want to sleep."
Jiang Xue explained: "Maybe it's because you were too enthusiastic last night."
"Are you really that tired?"
Jiang Xue nodded and replied, "Yes. I got up late this morning, but I still feel very tired and drowsy. I also tried hard to stay awake when talking to Yun Zhen just now."
Xiao Zhan immediately felt worried: "Xiaoxue, this is not right.
We've had more intense sex than last night many times before, but I've never seen you so exhausted. Are you sick?"
"Besides being sleepy, I don't feel any other discomfort. I'm probably not sick. Don't worry."
"Rest for a while. I'll ask Fudong to ask Xiaoan to come and check your pulse. Then I can feel more at ease."
Jiang Xue yawned and agreed, "Okay."
Xiao Zhan gently carried her to the bed, helped her take off her clothes, shoes and socks, tucked in the quilt carefully, and then told Fu Dong to invite Jiang Xiaoan.
When he looked back, she was already fast asleep, unusually quiet.
He kissed her forehead gently and whispered, "Xiaoxue, you must be okay."
Ever since Fu Dong introduced the medicinal materials boss to Jiang Xiaoan, his opinion of Fu Dong has changed a lot.
So this time when he saw Fu Dong, he did not try to avoid him like before, but took the initiative to greet him: "Commander Fu Dong, is there anything good that you are looking for me today?"
"My husband asked me to invite you to the princess's residence. Her Royal Highness is not feeling well."
"Your Highness the Princess is not feeling well?"
Jiang Xiaoan was a little surprised: "Even though she had problems due to the cold poison in the past, she has always had a good physique, and now those sequelae have completely disappeared, so she should rarely get sick. So, what are her specific symptoms?"
"Your Highness has been feeling extremely tired and sleepy lately."
"I understand." Jiang Xiaoan said, "I will go to the princess's mansion immediately and diagnose her personally."
When Jiang Xiaoan and Fu Dong arrived at the princess's mansion, Jiang Xue was still sleeping.
Therefore, Xiao Zhan did not let Jiang Xiaoan enter the inner room, but arranged for Fu Dong to accompany him and wait.
The two stopped under the corridor, Jiang Xiaoan leaned casually against a pillar, while Fu Dong stood straight, standing upright like a javelin.
As time went by, Jiang Xiaoan gradually felt bored, and finally couldn't help but break the silence: "Commander Fu Dong, don't you feel tired just standing there?"
"I won't be tired." Fu Dong answered concisely.
"How long can you stand like this?"
"It depends on who makes me stand like this."
"Like what?"
"If it were you, I would stand if I wanted to, and forget it if I didn't want to; if the Prince Consort ordered me to, I could stand for a few hours to give him face;
But if it is the order of Her Royal Highness, I will stand until the last moment of my life."
At this point, Fu Dong smiled slightly: "However, Her Royal Highness the Princess will never issue such an order unless I betray her - but this is impossible."
Jiang Xiaoan was stunned for a moment. It turned out that Fu Dong could laugh, and her laugh was very charming, making her look more like a real woman.
"It can be seen that you are truly loyal to Her Royal Highness the Princess." Jiang Xiaoan said.
"I am her bodyguard, and loyalty is my duty." Fudong replied.
“It’s not that simple.”
Jiang Xiaoan explained: "I can feel that your loyalty is not just out of duty, but comes from your deepest desire to protect her."
Hearing this, Fu Dong smiled at him: "You have good taste today."
If the smile just now was just accidental, this smile was truly directed at him.
In fact, apart from her slightly dark skin, Fudong's facial features are very delicate, and her smile really makes people feel very pleasing to the eye.
"Hearing you say that, it sounds as if I was a blind person before." Jiang Xiaoan responded half-jokingly.
"How do I know if you were this reckless before?"
