Yuan Yao suddenly opened her eyes.
Why would Xie Zhi come at this time?
Behind him, the little guard did not stop.
Yuan Yao coughed and said urgently, "Xie Zhi, you're not allowed in! Say what you have to say outside!"
Jing'er also blocked people outside the carriage: "Your Highness, my princess is lying down! It's not appropriate for you to go in now!"
Not suitable?
Xie Zhi looked up and gazed into the carriage: "What's wrong with it? I just wanted to see if Xiao Yao'er was alright."
"Alright! The princess is much better!" Jing'er opened her arms wide: "Young Master, please don't go in and disturb the princess!"
"Cough cough..." Yuan Yao coughed once inside the carriage.
Is it all better now?
Xie Zhi looked into the carriage and said, "Little Yao'er, I'll only look at you once, and then I'll leave."
Yuan Yao: "..."
What's so attractive about her?
Xie Zhi wants to come in, what should the little guards do?
He's still so young, we can't let him get exposed!
If he's exposed, the secret guard battalion might not want him anymore...
Is the only option to let him escape by jumping out of the window?
Yuan Yao's eyes darted around anxiously.
Harmful!
That Xie Zhi, he's always ruining her plans!
I really want to stuff a sack over his head!
Outside the car, Xie Zhi persisted.
He lowered his voice and threatened Jing'er, "Tell me, what's going on with Xiao Yao'er?"
Jing'er was on the verge of tears: "Your Highness, I've already told you, my princess is lying down!"
As she spoke, she gritted her teeth and closed her eyes: "Your Highness, my princess has a fever and said the carriage was too hot, so she didn't wear any clothes!"
I hope the princess won't punish her!
"Huh?" Xie Zhi was taken aback.
No clothes on?
Xie Zhi looked up and glanced at the carriage.
Upon seeing this, his face turned completely red.
Jing'er opened her eyes and said in a serious tone, "If Your Highness really doesn't believe me, then go in and see for yourself!"
However, this servant cannot guarantee whether the young master will be able to see my princess again after he goes in!
Xie Zhi: "..."
Xie Zhi scratched his head and chuckled dryly, "You should have said so earlier if Xiao Yao'er wasn't wearing any clothes!"
He caused such a commotion here for so long.
fortunately!
Luckily, he didn't rush in!
Xie Zhi looked at the carriage: "Little Yao'er, lie down properly. I'll come to see you again later!"
You need to subtly suggest taking your medicine and getting some rest!
"Okay," Yuan Yao replied. "Thank you for coming to see me!"
Xie Zhi blushed and instructed Jing'er, "Later, there might be other people coming to see Xiao Yao'er."
"Hurry up and pick out some light and breathable clothes for your princess to change into!"
"This servant has remembered it." Jing'er bowed.
With his hands behind his back, Xie Zhi continued, "Hurry up and pick out a dress!"
If you really can't find it, then go get it from my carriage!
"I have some light clothing here; if that's not enough, you can take mine for Xiao Yao'er to wear!"
Jing'er's lips twitched, and she curtsied, saying, "This servant thanks the Prince on behalf of the Princess."
Xie Zhi grunted in agreement before leaving.
The footsteps quickly faded into the distance.
"call……"
Yuan Yao let out a long sigh of relief.
It felt warm and cozy behind me.
My body warmed up too.
Before long, beads of sweat appeared on Yuan Yao's forehead.
Seeing this, the young guard withdrew his hand: "Are you feeling better?"
Yuan Yao nodded and stretched her limbs: "Much better! Thank you!"
Internal energy, it's really a wonderful thing!
If she has the chance, she wants to learn it too!
The guard moved a little further away from her before saying, "After we return to the palace, I'll come and channel my internal energy into you again, and you'll be fine."
Do we have to do it again?
Yuan Yao looked at the little bodyguard: "What if I exhaust your internal energy?"
Little bodyguard: "..."
The young guard patiently explained, "The main reason I was able to come out to take on the mission so early is because of my strong internal energy."
Yuan Yao's eyes lit up.
A genius in internal energy!
Seeing her bright eyes, the little guard's thin lips behind the black mist slightly curved upwards, and he said in a deep voice, "I should go."
Yuan Yao was somewhat reluctant to part.
However, she still nodded: "Thank you for today!"
The little guard nodded.
His gaze lingered on Yuan Yao, and he said in a deep voice, "The princess's dress is very beautiful."
"ah?"
Yuan Yao was stunned.
The young bodyguard muttered, "You look great in your dress."
Don't wear Xie Zhi's clothes.
Yuan Yao's mouth was slightly open as she suppressed a laugh: "Thank you..."
This little bodyguard is quite interesting.
The young guard said, "I'm leaving."
The carriage curtain swayed slightly.
In the blink of an eye, the little bodyguard disappeared.
Yuan Yao lay back down in bed.
As she lay there, she discovered that after the internal energy entered her body, it dispelled the chill, and she was no longer cold.
Not only was it not cold, it actually felt a bit hot.
She kicked off a blanket, closed her eyes, and drifted off to sleep comfortably...
In a daze, another weight appeared on my body.
A thin, dark figure pulled the blanket up to cover her body.
Yuan Yao said softly, "It's hot..."
As she spoke, she tried to kick off the blanket.
The man sat down next to her and held her down, saying, "Go to sleep quietly, don't move around, or you'll catch a cold."
"Aww..."
Yuan Yao mimicked Tang Yuan, responded softly, and fell into a deep sleep.
He slept all the way to the palace.
The crown prince was moved back to the Eastern Palace.
Yuan Yao also rested at Qianhua Palace for two days.
Half a month later, the crown prince's condition gradually improved...
The entire palace was filled with joy and celebration.
However, Xie Ning delivered some bad news—the Crown Prince's leg was not recovering well.
If his leg doesn't recover well, it means that the prince will either be bedridden or become a cripple...
A new layer of gloom descended upon the palace.
The emperor was greatly disappointed and, after choosing a day, ordered the execution of the people from the Rongguo Duke's Mansion and the Changdu Marquis's Mansion.
More than three hundred corpses were thrown into a mass grave...
In the blink of an eye, the weather is getting cooler.
After a long period of recuperation, the crown prince was finally able to get out of bed.
However, he was unable to walk at all.
The only comforting thing was that a smile had returned to the Crown Prince's face...
After his brush with death, the Crown Prince has changed completely.
He used to be very tired.
Now, he is full of energy.
Everyone was lamenting and feeling sorry for his leg, but he seemed quite relaxed.
He then comforted them, saying, "The fact that you're still alive is already a great blessing. You should be happy for me..."
Yuan Yao listened, her heart aching.
She consulted with the Minister of Works, submitted a blueprint, and had the Ministry of Works manufacture a wheelchair to present to the Crown Prince.
The wheelchair was completed just in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The Crown Prince attended the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in a wheelchair.
This year, the Crown Prince got into trouble, and the Donghu Palace was mostly destroyed.
The Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the palace was not a grand affair.
The Imperial Garden was brightly lit, like daytime.
On the artificial lake, weeping willows sway and water lilies exude fragrance.
There was also a faint fragrance of osmanthus in the wind.
The melodious sounds of string and wind instruments filled the air.
After removing the leftover food, mooncakes, fruits, and desserts were placed on the table in turn.
Yuan Yao sneaked over from the women's side and sat next to the Ninth Prince, only peeking out with her little head.
The Ninth Prince took a silver spoon and carefully picked out the pomegranate seeds, each one as translucent as agate, and placed them on a gleaming white jade plate...
After several rounds of drinks, the Crown Prince pushed his wheelchair out of his seat and said, "Father, I have something to report."
He was holding a folded document in his hands.
Yuan Yao was stunned when she saw the memorial.
Even the Ninth Prince glanced at it sideways.
The crown prince raised his hand and had someone help him out of the wheelchair. Then, he knelt and prostrated himself on the ground.
The emperor lowered his eyelids: "Crown Prince, what are you doing?"
The banquet suddenly fell silent.
The Crown Prince held the memorial in both hands, his forehead pounding heavily on the ground: "Your subject submits this memorial today, requesting that Your Majesty abolish my position as Crown Prince and select a virtuous and healthy heir for the Great Qi!"
