Chapter 180 Can You Be Serious?

Xiao Jinyan's brows were furrowed and his eyes were cold. If the thing that cursed Shen Chuwei had not been found yet, he would have punished Feng Yueyue by now. Why would he let her talk nonsense here and slander Shen Chuwei?

"Are you going to tell me or not?"

"Your Highness, I am devoted to you. Why do you care so much for a woman who is as effeminate as a flower? Shen Liangdi is not worthy of you. She is not worthy of Your Highness." Feng Yueyue shouted at the end. She was in so much pain that she couldn't speak. Her voice was so hoarse.

Xiao Jinyan didn't want to listen to her slander anymore, so he ordered in a cold voice: "Take her away, and try your best to make her tell you where the thing that cursed Shen Liangdi is."

"I obey your command." Wei Chi bent down, picked up Feng Yueyue and strode out.

After Feng Yueyue was dragged away, the study room instantly became quiet.

Xiao Jinyan frowned, "Call Mr. Lu over."

Liu Xi responded and went to find Lord Lu.

Lu Zhaoyan arrived in a hurry and saw Xiao Jinyan sitting in front of the desk with a sullen face. It was obvious that he was in a bad mood.

"Your Highness, I heard that the person who used the witchcraft was caught. Why are you still at a loss?"

Xiao Jinyan said: "We did catch him, but Feng Zhaoshun refused to admit it and refused to tell us where the thing was. Shen Liangdi is still in a coma. This is not a good thing."

There have been cases of witchcraft in the palace that have harmed people. If the thing is not found and destroyed in time, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Shen Liang Di's coma time is getting longer and longer, which means she is in danger." Lu Zhaoyan sighed, "Women are the most vicious, that's absolutely true. What kind of hatred would make her do such a cruel thing to Shen Liang Di?"

Xiao Jinyan asked: "Have you not found any clues yet?"

Lu Zhaoyan expressed some helplessness, "Your Highness, the art of calculation is not omnipotent."

Xiao Jinyan raised his eyebrows and looked at Lu Zhaoyan: "What's the use of you then?"

Lu Zhaoyan felt a chill on his back. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Your Highness, that's not the way to say it. I am definitely useful."

Xiao Jinyan didn't want to argue with Lu Zhaoyan, so he said, "Come with me to Xiaoxiang Pavilion."

Lu Zhaoyan bowed and said, "I have the same idea."

Xiao Jinyan arrived at Xiaoxiang Pavilion, which was even more dilapidated than Xiyun Pavilion.

He walked in slowly. The place was in a mess because it had been searched, and the tables and chairs had been moved.

Lu Zhaoyan followed behind and looked at the deserted Xiaoxiang Pavilion. It was no wonder that it was called Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

Xiao Jinyan took his guards and searched again, but still found nothing.

"Feng Zhaoshun is unwilling to say it, I'm afraid he wants to put Shen Liangdi to death." Lu Zhaoyan said.

Xiao Jinyan angrily slammed the table in front of him, and with a "crack", the wooden table broke into pieces.

“She dares!”

Lu Zhaoyan looked at the table that was fine just now, and was still shocked to see it moving on all four legs.

The trip to Xiaoxiang Pavilion ended in failure.

"I will go back and calculate to see if I can find the exact approximate location." Lu Zhaoyan said.

Xiao Jinyan said, "I want you to find the thing that is causing harm."

Lu Zhaoyan shuddered when he heard this. It was indeed not easy to be a subject.

Shen Chuwei slept for a whole day and night this time. When Xu Cefei and Tao Chenghui came to visit, they were turned away by the little rabbit.

Xiao Jinyan was afraid that she was hungry, so he asked Doctor Wen Yu to wake her up.

Doctor Wen Yu was a little hesitant, "Your Highness, Shen Liang Di told me last time that she didn't want to be awakened by the pain of the silver needles."

Xiao Jinyan frowned and said, "She has slept for a whole day and night. What if she gets too hungry?"

"I obey your command." Doctor Wen Yu took out the silver needle and stimulated Shen Liangdi with ease.

Shen Chuwei only felt a throbbing pain in her chest, and her brows were wrinkled into knots.

Seeing him in so much pain, Xiao Jinyan turned around and asked, "How did you do that? Why is she in so much pain?"

Doctor Wen Yu said in embarrassment: "Your Highness, I am just doing what you said."

Xiao Jinyan said angrily: "I want you to wake her up, not hurt her."

Doctor Wen Yu had cold sweat on his forehead and was in deep pain but couldn't express it.

Shen Chu frowned slightly, slowly opened his eyes, and saw Xiao Jinyan standing in front of the bed.

Xiao Jinyan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her wake up, "You finally woke up."

Shen Chuwei's eyes slowly moved towards Doctor Wen Yu, and he spoke word by word, "You stabbed me with the silver needle again."

The voice sounded extremely aggrieved.

Doctor Wen Yu glanced down at the silver needle in his hand, then looked at Shen Chuwei's eyes full of grievance. It was really not his fault, it was all His Highness's order.

Xiao Jinyan ordered: "Prepare dinner."

Chunxi had been waiting at the door, and when she heard the order, she immediately went to prepare dinner.

After Shen Chuwei finished washing up, she sat at the dining table. She looked listless, but when she saw the table full of delicious food, her eyes lit up instantly.

Xiao Jinyan put some of her favorite braised pork in her bowl. She looked so thin in the past two days that even the baby fat on her cheeks disappeared.

Shen Chuwei looked at the braised pork in the bowl, curled her lips, picked it up and put it to her mouth, ate it in one bite, it was evenly fat and lean, not greasy, and tasted good.

"Chunxi's cooking skills are getting better and better."

Xiao Jinyan said: "Eat more. You've lost weight."

"Great minds think alike." Shen Chu frowned slightly, picked up another piece and put it into his mouth to eat.

Xiao Jinyan thought about the incident with Feng Yueyue, "I have already arrested Feng Zhaoshun, but she has never admitted what she did, and the curse has not been found."

Shen Chuwei puffed up her cheeks and threw Chunxi's instructions behind her. "Then I will go to Xiaoxiang Pavilion tomorrow to see if I can find it."

Xiao Jinyan said, "You are still sick, don't run around. Tomorrow the palace will ask Lu Zhaoyan to go and see you."

Shen Chuwei did not refuse and lowered her head to continue eating the braised pork in the bowl.

Xiao Jinyan raised his eyes and watched her eating. It seemed as if she was eating something delicious. She ate with relish and did not look delicate or artificial at all.

"Eat slowly and don't choke."

Shen Chuwei said as she ate, "It's alright, Your Highness. If you digest this slowly, you won't have to wake up tomorrow."

Xiao Jinyan felt relieved when he saw Shen Chuwei's optimistic attitude. He watched her eat her third bowl of rice. This amount of rice...

"I heard that pregnant women have better appetites and eat more. How many bowls of rice will you have to eat then?"

Shen Chuwei paused in chewing and looked up at Xiao Jinyan opposite him. Why did he suddenly ask about this topic?

She swallowed the rice in her mouth and said softly, "Isn't it still early?"

Xiao Jinyan said leisurely, "It will be soon before I go to bed with you."

Shen Chu blushed slightly and muttered, "Your Highness, it's meal time now. Do you think this is appropriate?"

Xiao Jinyan said nonchalantly, "Why is it inappropriate?"

Shen Chuwei reached into the plate with her chopsticks, picked up the largest piece of braised pork and put it in the bowl in front of him, and urged, "Eat the meat."

Xiao Jinyan lowered his eyes and looked at the braised pork in the bowl. He didn't eat fatty meat, but he still picked it up, brought it to his lips, took a bite, and chewed it slowly.

"You eat four bowls of rice now, but I guess you will have to eat more than six bowls by then."
