Chapter 172 Concubine Hui's plan fails
Xuanyuan Jing felt dizzy and his consciousness gradually blurred. He heard Nanyou's call and opened his eyes with difficulty, but only saw a blurry figure approaching.
He tried to struggle, but was powerless. He felt a strange heat rising in his heart, making his consciousness even more blurred.
"He Nanyou, you...what are you doing?"
Although Xuanyuan Jing tried his best to remain calm, his voice sounded weak.
He Nanyou's face flushed, and her eyes flashed with a determination to win.
"Cousin, back when we were in our hometown, my aunt told me that I was going to be your princess. I didn't expect that after coming to the imperial city, you already have a princess. But it doesn't matter. I don't mind the status. I just want to be by your side."
As she spoke, she slowly approached and gently placed her hand on Xuanyuan Jing's shoulder.
He raised his hand and tore open his clothes.
Xuanyuan Jing was shocked. He knew very well that he was not in the right state at the moment and must have been tricked.
“Get out…”
Nanyou's hand reached out to his face.
"My cousin, you are handsome and of noble status, why are you so blinded by Xiao Fuguang? How can she be so good as a divorced woman?"
Xuanyuan Jing raised his hand and slapped her hand away, roaring.
“Get lost…”
Looking at his already red eyes, Nan You's eyes were full of success, and she reached out to pull Xuanyuan Jing's clothes.
"Cousin, Nanyou will serve you well..."
In the yard outside the door.
Concubine Hui looked in the direction of Nanyou's room.
"Madame Xue, is this okay?"
Nanny Xue spoke.
"Don't worry, Concubine Dowager. This is a very strong drug. Even with his martial arts skills, the prince can't resist it."
Concubine Hui held the rosary in her hand.
"I hope Jing'er can understand that I'm doing this for her own good. Xiao Fuguang has been married for so long, and he's been saying he has to observe mourning, but he hasn't given Jing'er a child. If Jing has Nanyou, I'll be able to become a grandmother soon."
Nanny Xue echoed from the side.
"My cousin is well-behaved and sensible. When she becomes the Dowager's daughter-in-law, she will certainly obey the Dowager's wishes in everything."
Concubine Hui nodded after hearing this.
"Nanyou has been with me for two years. She is indeed a well-behaved child. She is nothing like Xiao Fuguang, who talks back to me as soon as we meet."
Nanny Xue spoke with a smile.
"Tomorrow, my cousin will be the prince's concubine. Maybe she will have a child tonight."
Thinking that she would soon be able to hold her grandson and that Nanyou's marriage had been arranged, Concubine Hui was all smiles.
"I've used a lot of medicinal herbs to take care of Nanyou over the past two years. Jing'er is a martial artist, so she'll definitely be able to get pregnant..."
Suddenly there was a loud "bang" and He Nanyou fell out of the room in disheveled clothes, with even the door broken.
"ah…………"
He Nanyou's cries of pain were heard in the yard.
Concubine Hui and Nanny Xue were shocked and hurried forward to help the man.
"Nanyou......"
"Cousin......"
Xuanyuan Jing stumbled out of the room, his clothes a little messy.
With such a big commotion, Jiang Yuan, who was guarding outside the yard, naturally noticed something was wrong. He rushed in and saw that Xuanyuan Jing looked abnormal.
“Your Highness…”
He hurriedly supported Xuanyuan Jing.
Concubine Hui actually drugged him. Thinking of the bowl of rice dumplings with fermented lees, Xuanyuan Jing felt that the food he loved to eat as a child had become extremely disgusting now, and what was also disgusting was Concubine Hui's so-called concern.
He looked at Concubine Hui with cold eyes.
Concubine Hui couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
"Jing'er......"
Jiang Yuan supported him worriedly.
"Someone, call a doctor..."
Xuanyuan Jing looked at Concubine Hui and gritted his teeth to control himself.
"The Prince Regent's Palace is too small to keep Concubine Hui."
"Jiang Yuan, go find the princess."
Jiang Yuan hurriedly helped him walk towards the main courtyard.
"Your Highness, the princess hasn't returned yet. I've already sent for the doctor. For so many years, you've always treated the princess dowager with great respect and love. I never thought she would be so ignorant of her limits."
Soon the doctor was brought to the main courtyard and took Xuanyuan Jing's pulse.
"This... Your Majesty, this is a secret medicine from the palace. I am useless and cannot decipher it... Your Majesty, why don't you favor one..."
Xuanyuan Jing roared angrily.
“Get out…”
"Jiang Yuan, get some cold water and some ice!"
The doctor spoke hurriedly.
"Your Highness, this is the antidote for common medicines. Even soaking in cold water can only alleviate the pain you've experienced. To find the antidote, you still need to be with a woman..."
Jiang Yuan has already given the order in a stern voice.
"Someone, prepare cold water and ice for the bath."
Then he hurriedly poured water and handed it to Xuanyuan Jing.
“Your Highness…”
Xuanyuan Jing took it and drank it all.
"not enough."
He struggled to the table, grabbed the kettle on the table and poured it into his mouth.
Soon the servants brought water with ice in it, and Xuanyuan Jing got into the bathtub without hesitation.
Such cold water would not be able to cure the disease. Jiang Yuan was anxious and hurried out.
"Go wait at the gate of the mansion. When the princess comes back, tell her that something has happened to the prince..."
Xiao Fuguang just heard these words when he came back, and his tone couldn't help but be a little anxious.
"What happened, my lord?"
Jiang Yuan hurriedly bowed.
"Princess, the prince took Chinese medicine in the Peony Garden, and the doctor said that the medicine cannot be cured by ordinary methods."
Peony Garden? This Concubine Hui actually drugged Xuanyuan Jing. This Regent Palace can no longer keep them as aunt and nephew.
Xiao Fuguang raised his foot and walked inside.
Jiang Yuan just felt relieved. Great! The princess is finally back and the prince is saved. He quickly closed the door of the room.
Hearing the sound of someone coming in, Xuanyuan Jing grabbed the edge of the bathtub tightly with both hands.
"Jiang Yuan, bring more ice!"
Seeing the veins bulging on his hands, Xiao Fuguang reached out and placed his hand on his arm.
“Your Highness…”
Xuanyuan Jing looked up and saw that it was Xiao Fuguang, and tried his best to restrain himself.
"Get out...don't show up again tonight..."
Xiao Fuguang frowned slightly.
"I said before that I would observe a year of mourning for my mother, but now that time has passed, Jiang Yuan said that the medicine can't be dissolved by soaking in cold water."
Xuanyuan Jing raised his hand and waved her hand away.
“You get out…”
Xiao Fuguang looked at him and felt that he could not understand him at this moment.
"Xuanyuan Jing, why?"
Listening to Xiao Fuguang's questioning, Xuanyuan Jing felt that he could no longer bear it.
"Fuguang, be obedient and go out first. I will explain it to you another day."
Suddenly, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
This medicine really has no cure, Xiao Fuguang said anxiously.
“Your Highness…”
He quickly picked up his handkerchief and wiped him.
"Xuanyuan Jing, have you forgotten that I am your princess?"
When Xuanyuan Jing heard this, a trace of struggle and pain flashed in his eyes.
"Fu Guang...I don't want to hurt you, can you please go out?"
His voice was low and hoarse, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from the depths of his throat.
Xiao Fuguang picked up the water cup beside him and handed it to him.
"Rinse your mouth first."
Xuanyuan Jing rinsed his mouth and Xiao Fuguang put the cup away.
"What are you worried about?"
Xuanyuan Jing looked up at her, but found that he could not say anything.
Xiao Fuguang stood up and raised his hands to unbutton his clothes.
The blue veins on Xuanyuan Jing's hands became more and more obvious.
"Fu Guang... go out..."
Xiao Fuguang, wearing a bellyband, raised his hand, pinched his chin, and kissed his lips...
