"Your Highness, you've just woken up from a long sleep; you shouldn't stand for too long, or you'll feel dizzy..."
Eunuch Xu stepped forward, gently helped her up, and led her to the carriage.
Seeing that he seemed to want to speak with her alone, Ning Xi'er took the opportunity to get into the carriage.
"Your Highness, you really scared us to death this time!"
"I can tell it comes from the bottom of my heart," said Eunuch Xu with concern.
However, from the moment he got into the carriage, his eyes were scanning the four corners of the carriage, as if he were looking for something.
Ning Xi'er couldn't help but look behind her and to the left and right.
As she swayed, Eunuch Xu noticed a bundle at the back of Ning Xi'er's dress. Although the fabric had been changed, there was only one bundle, which must have belonged to Ning Xi'er.
Eunuch Xu stepped forward respectfully, reached out, and touched the bundle in front of Ning Xi'er.
He said, "You have no idea how dangerous that day was for you. First you were poisoned, then you were stabbed in the heart..."
"This is the first time we've ever seen His Highness lose his composure like this!"
He opened the bundle in front of Ning Xi'er without a second thought.
Anyway, since it's in front of the owner, they're afraid of putting some kind of drug powder inside or outside.
Putting aside his relationship with the princess, if something were to happen, the princess would definitely speak up to warn him...
Furthermore, even if there wasn't time to warn her, with the princess's medical skills, could she really just stand by and do nothing?
Eunuch Xu then began to unpack the bundle as if no one else was around, examining each item carefully.
Ning Xi'er: ......
Was she dead?
Eunuch Xu continued, "When we heard you were poisoned, we even came to your carriage. The Prince couldn't sit still, so he must have had Xuanfeng push him over in a wheelchair..."
"I won't feel at ease until I see you with my own eyes..."
"However, after His Highness questioned Haitang and the two generals, even I could tell that you must have discovered it beforehand and were definitely playing along. That's why His Highness didn't panic..."
Are you going crazy with anxiety?
Ning Xi'er couldn't imagine that such a refined, calm, and self-possessed man would have such an expression on his face.
But then I thought, if we were in each other's shoes, and he were to contract a poison that I couldn't cure, would I be just as anxious?
The answer was that she herself didn't know.
In the short time it took to talk, Eunuch Xu had turned her bundle inside out, taking out all the medicine bottles, porcelain jars, and water pouches filled with spiritual spring liquid, and was still worried that there might be hidden compartments in the bundle...
He turned the bundle over and shook it from top to bottom...
Ning Xi'er: ......
Eunuch Xu, what are you looking for? Why don't you just ask me?
Eunuch Xu recounted vividly, "Who knew, my heart leaped into my throat, and just as I breathed a sigh of relief, I saw you being carried out by Bai Zhi, blood streaming from your chest..."
Ning Xi'er could imagine that scene.
Eunuch Xu had already treated her as if she were invisible, kneeling on the mattress and searching under it to see if anything was hidden.
Ning Xi'er:......
Eunuch Xu, is this really a good idea?
I'm still sitting here.
Then Eunuch Xu added, "The prince's face immediately turned deathly pale, and his expression became frighteningly grim! If that villain hadn't committed suicide by poison..."
"Thinking about the pain you suffered, we wish we could tear that person to pieces!"
After searching through all four corners, and complaining that Ning Xi'er was blocking the way, he patiently waited for her to "voluntarily" move aside...
Ning Xi'er was speechless and couldn't help but ask, "Eunuch Xu, what are you looking for? Why don't you let me help you look for it?"
After searching every corner of the carriage and confirming that he couldn't find the item he was looking for on his own, Eunuch Xu felt embarrassed to ask.
Ning Xi'er had never seen Eunuch Xu with such an expression before.
He brought Ning Xi'er here to be polite and respectful, but in front of others, he was extremely dignified.
Such a powerful aura may stem from the need to protect Xie Zhun and uphold his dignity, or it may be due to his strength.
Putting aside the elaborate trap, Ning Xi'er hadn't forgotten the blurry figure of Eunuch Xu wielding his sword before she fainted...
Ning Xi'er guessed that Eunuch Xu's martial arts skills must be superior to those of Xuan Feng and the other guards.
Only the final weapon makes its appearance.
Eunuch Xu gestured with his hands, tentatively asking, "Your Highness, do you have anything of this size, like a scroll?"
Ning Xi'er frowned slightly.
In a flash, he realized what Eunuch Xu was looking for.
Seeing Ning Xi'er's expression, Eunuch Xu guessed that she already knew, and said with a smile, "I shouldn't say this, but the Princess Consort has suffered this time, but it seems that the Prince has only just realized his feelings for her..."
"Not only the Prince, but everyone present, including the Princess's maids, must have clearly seen the Prince's feelings for you..."
"The Princess and the Prince were a match made in heaven, but fate intervened. Who would have thought that the Prince would so easily make a decision he shouldn't have..."
Eunuch Xu was referring to the fact that Xie Zhun, in accordance with Ning Xi'er's wishes, gave her a divorce agreement.
He was in excruciating pain and a toothache at that moment.
"Excuse my bluntness, but I've watched the Prince grow up, and this is the first time he's ever cared so much about someone..."
"With your understanding nature, Princess Consort will surely understand how difficult it is for the Prince to trust someone..."
