Xiang Yuanqing directed people to rearrange Nuanfeng Courtyard, and directed the maids to feed Lin Jinghan food and medicine, acting like a master. However, Sikong Zhan received a report and learned that something had happened at the garrison, so he had already left the palace and was unaware of these things.
At noon, Lin Jinghan finally woke up, rubbed her dizzy head, and tried to sit up by holding on to the bed.
"Princess, please be careful. The wounds on your body have not scabbed over yet, so you can't get up yet." The secretary hurriedly stopped Lin Jinghan from getting up.
Lin Jinghan thought of what happened last night. She lay quietly, staring at the room in front of her that was somewhat familiar, yet mostly unfamiliar, and asked, "Where is this?"
The secretary thought the princess was delirious from the fever and said with a smile, "Princess, this is your bedroom in the Warm Breeze Courtyard. Mr. Xiang said that the previous layout of your bedroom was not suitable for recuperation, so I redecorated it for you. Princess, take a look. Are you satisfied?"
Taking a closer look, the tender green curtains are like new buds in early spring, which makes people happy. There is also an elegant layout and exquisite decoration. Such a room is really not something that Sikong Zhan or anyone else in the Jingnan Palace can arrange.
"Who is Mr. Xiang?" Lin Jinghan asked: Since he has such taste, it's time to get to know him.
Before the secretary could speak, a familiar voice sounded outside the door: "Little girl, I guess you are about to wake up. How are you? Are you satisfied with my arrangement?"
Following the voice, Xiang Yuanqing walked in, holding the flowers he had picked himself. He casually called over a vase, threw away the flowers inside, carefully arranged his flowers, and placed them in front of Lin Jinghan's bed.
"Gardenia clears away heat and reduces irritability, which will be very beneficial to your illness."
Sniffing the floral fragrance, Lin Jinghan indeed felt refreshed and asked with a smile:
"Senior? Why are you here?" How dare you start construction in Prince Jingnan's Mansion and not be beaten out by Sikong Zhan?
Understanding Lin Jinghan's hidden meaning, Xiang Yuanqing rolled his eyes at her and said, "I'm here to treat you. Tell me, after we separated, why didn't you go back? Instead, you were ambushed in the wilderness?"
Lin Jinghan smiled awkwardly, "Well, I didn't pay attention when I went out, and on the way back, I accidentally got lost... As for those people who hurt me, it was probably my bad luck..." Since it involved that domineering man, it would be better for her to keep her mouth shut.
"Your body is indeed a little weak. Once you recover, you can train with me. Within three months, I guarantee that your body will be as strong as an ox. You can easily handle a situation like last night."
As strong as an ox? Lin Jinghan imagined that scene, but it wasn't a very pleasant one. She quickly pushed it out of her mind. Thinking about it carefully, it wasn't important. What was important was, did the Pavilion Master of Tianque Pavilion intend to stay in the Jingnan Palace?
She hurriedly asked, "Senior, you want to train me? Here?" She didn't seem to have become his disciple yet? Also, would Sikong Zhan agree?
Xiang Yuanqing smiled confidently, "Jinghan girl, from now on, I will be your teaching master. I will take care of all your studies."
Lin Jinghan was full of questions, but she didn't know where to start. She couldn't just ask something hurtful like "Has the prince agreed?"
After thinking for a moment, he said tactfully, "If you stay here, what will happen to Tianque Pavilion? The Pavilion Master is never at home, won't it be in chaos?"
Xiang Yuanqing said seriously: "If I have to do everything, what's the point of those little brats?" The little girl said that she didn't want to join Tianque Pavilion, but now she starts to care about the affairs of Tianque Pavilion. It's true that she says one thing and means another!
"Haha, what you said, senior, is very reasonable!" Lin Jinghan could imagine how the people of Tianque Pavilion were being "oppressed" by the Pavilion Master, as he could speak so confidently about the situation.
At this time, Shiqi walked in and said, "Princess, the Prime Minister has arrived and said he is looking for the prince."
Lin Jinghan frowned: "Then let's go find the prince." She didn't even want to look at the face of Prime Minister Lin, that scumbag father.
The secretary was embarrassed: "Something big happened at the garrison, and the prince went there."
The prince is not here, and it is not good to ask the princess to deal with her father. It seems that she is the only one who can send Lin Xiang away. Lin Jinghan sighed lightly and asked Xiang Yuanqing to go to the guest room to rest. She asked the maid to help her sit up and carefully put on a loose coat. No matter how careful they were, the wound still split open. Fortunately, she was wearing black clothes, so it could not be seen without careful observation.
He summoned Wu Si and his men and said, "Come, tell me everything that happened after I left the base yesterday."
After listening to the Wu brothers' story, Lin Jinghan was upset: "Why did Sikong Zhan, this man, have to rush to let people see him? He got into trouble, then he just walked away, leaving her to clean up the mess!"
No, she couldn't take the blame! If she admitted that she cured Prince Jingnan, or that Prince Jingnan wasn't poisoned at all, the Queen Mother would eat her alive! If the most noble woman in the world was determined to kill her, it was no joke!
Just as she was having a headache, she smelled the fragrance of gardenias beside the bed. A plan came to her mind, and without getting out of bed, she leaned weakly on it, "Go, invite the Pavilion Master, who is teaching this princess, to come here!"
Soon, Lin Xiang was invited to Nuanfengyuan, where Xiang Yuanqing was giving acupuncture to Lin Jinghan.
"I wonder why Minister Lin came to see my prince? The prince is not here, and I am also injured. Minister Lin, please make it short." Lin Jinghan's voice trembled as she spoke. She closed her eyes and frowned, as if she was trying her best to control the pain in her body.
Seeing a large wet spot on Lin Jinghan's black coat, he knew that she was seriously injured, and asked, "What happened to you?" He was not concerned about his daughter, but was just curious why she was injured for no reason.
"Minister Lin, please don't worry about this matter." Lin Jinghan had no intention of saving face for Minister Lin, not at all.
Minister Lin was not angry. Thinking about the purpose of his visit, he continued to ask, "I heard that the prince appeared at the city gate this morning. Is the poison in his body okay?"
"With me here, what could possibly happen?" Xiang Yuanqing continued what he was doing, without even raising his head, and said confidently.
"Who are you?" Lin Jingshan was surprised and looked carefully at the middle-aged man who was giving acupuncture in front of him.
"Xiang Yuanqing."
Although Lin Jingshan was a member of the imperial court, he had heard of the name of the Pavilion Master of Tianque Pavilion. "Are you the Pavilion Master of Tianque Pavilion?"
"I am treating patients and don't like to be disturbed. If you have nothing to do, please go away!" These days, Xiang Yuanqing has already found out Lin Jinghan's family background clearly. Knowing that Lin Jingshan is not a good father, he naturally has no good attitude towards him.
Since the head of Tianque Pavilion appeared here and treated Lin Jinghan carefully, it was self-evident why Sikong Zhan had cured her of the poison. Lin Xiang stood up and left without saying goodbye.
