What she saw really terrified her.
Ning Cang was found bound hand and foot on the bed!
Ning Cang glared fiercely at Di Jingling, feeling utterly humiliated, as if he were staring at an enemy from eight lifetimes ago.
Di Jingling, on the other hand, stood calmly with his hands behind his back.
He stood with his hands behind his back, coldly staring at the person on the bed who seemed to be struggling.
"You willingly fell into my hands, do you think I'll let you off easily?"
"Di Jingling, how dare you say such a thing! If it weren't for you, my sister wouldn't have died!"
As expected, they brought up this old issue again.
But after all, they are close relatives, and even if old grievances are brought up, this debt cannot be easily forgotten.
Xiao Tang, however, had already imagined a whole drama unfolding in her mind.
Good grief, what are you guys up to?
Could this be... a classic love triangle?
The main villain and the Marquis of Dingbei have... well, you know? But the Marquis of Dingbei's sister likes the main villain, so the Marquis of Dingbei has to give way, and the result is...
Wow, what a rich, dramatic, and exciting story!
Di Jingling clenched his fist.
The veins on the back of his hand were bulging.
His fist clenched and unclenched repeatedly.
He wished he could rush out right now and grab Xiao Tang!
"Di Jingling, you can rest assured, I will definitely take Di Yanhen's life. And your life... I will take yours too!"
"Heh, you think you can take that?"
Di Jingling sneered, probably too lazy to argue with this man about such a pointless matter, so she turned and left.
It's even more impossible for him to apply medicine to Ning Cang.
Instead, as he was leaving, he instructed Yan Jiu: "Go and administer the medicine to Marquis Dingbei."
After saying this, he slowly walked to the window.
Xiao Tang was still clinging to it.
Until the back of his collar was pulled off by a large hand.
"Um, Your Highness... what can I do for you?"
"I do indeed have important matters to discuss with the Imperial Advisor."
He emphasized the word "good" very much.
Even if Xiao Tang is stupid, she can sense danger.
She was about to leave immediately, "Ah, since that's how things are, then I'll go first..."
But his collar had already been lifted up.
She was carried by the man to the study next door.
It's only a short walk.
The study door slammed shut.
Yan Jiu was left standing there, bewildered and dumbfounded.
It's nothing unusual to give the medicine to the Marquis of Bei...
But why should he be the one doing this?
He really hated this Marquis of Dingbei.
All they do all day is oppose their prince.
What's most infuriating is that they used to be brothers!
Di Jingling started leading troops into battle at the age of sixteen, and from that year onwards, he lived on the border.
It was from that time that the man and Ning Cang got to know each other.
The two hit it off immediately.
Over time, the two became very close, chatting happily and calling each other brothers.
This friendship lasted until the Regent was twenty years old...
Ning Cang's younger sister, Ning Shanyue...
Because of this, the two had a falling out and began to fight each other constantly.
Whenever Ning Cang mentions the Regent of the Great Sheng Kingdom, he inevitably says things that despise and belittle the prince.
Even someone like Yan Jiu couldn't understand why brothers who were perfectly fine would turn against each other.
Ning Shanyue wasn't killed by the prince.
It's all Ning Shanyue's fault for courting disaster.
He brought the medicine to the bedside and sighed helplessly.
After all, he was once a close brother of the prince...
There's nothing wrong with him sighing twice.
Ning Cang was already angry, and hearing him sighing and complaining made him even angrier.
He snapped, "What are you sighing about?"
"You're just like your master, hypocritical. Do you not want to apply medicine for me? I don't need you to serve me..."
He had just started cursing when he suddenly stopped.
A strange chill settled on the wound.
Yan Jiu scooped out a large amount of ointment with his fingers and smeared it all over the man's wound!
She used her actions to show that she didn't want to wipe his wound.
Ning Cang gasped several times.
Finally, she glared at Yan Jiu with a hint of annoyance, "Could you be a little gentler?"
"Well... I was just following orders. If you can't stand it, just say so."
Ning Cang gritted his teeth.
In the end, I held back.
...
Inside the study, Xiao Tang was pinned against the door by the man.
【Oh no... I got pinned down by a door?】
When did the main villain become so skilled?
[If I were in Ning Cang's position right now, wow, that would be a perfect storyline.]
I'm going to kill him by forcing his head down.
The man grabbed her chin.
"You can treat this man."
"Huh?"
I have a feeling he might say "but" later.
"but……"
【really……】
“I must be present every time I see him, otherwise I will have him buried right now.”
Xiao Tang knew that he and Ning Cang had a deep-seated grudge; they were mortal enemies, so she could understand.
She held up three fingers and swore to the heavens, "My husband, you can rest assured that I will take you with me whenever I want to see him, as long as you do not refuse!"
Her voice was soft and sweet when she made her vows.
It seems like she's deliberately trying to appear well-behaved.
Even though Di Jingling had already seen through her act...
But he always falls for her charms.
"Okay, I understand." He quickly released her.
He was worried that he might accidentally force himself on her and kiss her again.
Xiao Tang scratched his head, keenly sensing that his attitude was conflicted.
