But what exactly happened to the Crown Prince?
“Your Highness, you…” Tingyu turned around, only to find that the Crown Prince was no longer the pale, sickly figure he had been just moments before. He was calm, composed, and in excellent spirits. This…
"You can go down now. When Xie Lingqin arrives, bring her in, but don't let anything slip."
"……yes."
...
Yu Qingyi was on his way to the Crown Prince's residence. He needed to find out why Tianxia Yiwei had given him a meaningful look, telling him to leave quickly while letting Xie Lingqin stay.
Unexpectedly, they ran into Xie Lingqin halfway there.
At this moment, Xie Lingqin had just come out of a pharmacy.
"Little girl, are you sick? What are you doing with medicine?"
Xie Lingqin looked at the medicine in her hand, then at Yu Qingyi, "Where are you going?"
"I'll go see the Crown Prince."
"Oh, don't worry, he's fine now. I'll get him his medicine."
"Get the medicine?" Yu Qingyi asked, extremely curious.
Xie Lingqin thought for a moment, then looked around before saying softly, "Yes, the Crown Prince was given a laxative earlier and held it in for a long time. He then used his internal energy to neutralize it, which greatly damaged his strength. Now, his body is quite weak."
To everyone's surprise, after Xie Lingqin finished speaking, Yu Qingyi paused for a moment and then burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, Xie Lingqin, are you kidding me? Laxatives?" Yu Qingyi laughed so hard he almost rolled on the ground.
Xie Lingqin didn't stop her, but looked at her with suspicion, "What do you mean?"
"Don't you know how skilled the Crown Prince is in martial arts?"
Xie Lingqin's eyes darkened, a vague feeling stirring within her, and her fingers loosened their grip. "Go on," she said.
"It's just a little laxative. Not to mention the Crown Prince's high level of martial arts, even I can easily neutralize it in my body without any problem. So how could the Crown Prince be troubled by a laxative and suffer a great loss of power?"
Xie Lingqin felt a void in her heart.
"So, you mean to say that laxatives have absolutely no effect on the Crown Prince? Is that right?" Xie Lingqin spoke each word as if she were spitting them out.
Although Yu Qingyi felt that Xie Lingqin's aura suddenly became cold and her tone was strange, he still smiled and nodded, praising her highly, "Of course, a silent person can be very strong, so you must not underestimate her."
"Good, very good." Xie Lingqin's heart clenched tighter in her sleeve, a cold glint flashing in her eyes. She then tossed a bag of herbs to Yu Qingyi. "Here, please take this to Tai. Tell him that acting is tiring and he's worked hard."
After saying that, he turned and left without looking back.
Even their backs seemed to exude a hint of menace.
Yu Qingyi's peach blossom eyes, which always held a smile, were now filled with a clear, calm depth, and she seemed at a loss.
What happened?
Weighing the herbs in his hand, Yu Qingyi suddenly felt inexplicably uneasy.
Could it be that the Crown Prince has done something else?
With this thought in mind, Yu Qingyi rushed anxiously toward the Crown Prince's residence.
They landed directly in the main courtyard and opened the door.
"Hey, are you alright, you silent type?"
Looking at Yuwen Yao, who was lying on the soft couch with a relaxed expression, seemingly in a good mood, Yu Qingyi breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest. "You scared me to death! Judging from the little girl's tone, I thought something had happened to you." As she spoke, Yu Qingyi casually put the herbs in her hand on the table.
The moment the medicine was put down, the Crown Prince, who had been leisurely lying on the soft couch, stood in front of Yu Qingyi in an instant, "This medicine..."
"Oh, Xie Lingqin gave it to me."
"What else did she say?"
"Oh, she asked me to tell you something: acting is tiring, you must be exhausted."
"Yu Qingyi!" The Crown Prince's face suddenly darkened, as if a raging storm had engulfed Yu Qingyi's entire face and head.
Yu Qingyi swallowed hard, almost trembling with fear as he took several steps back. "Your Highness, what's wrong?"
"You!" The Crown Prince's eyes flashed with a sharp light, his face darkening. "What did you and Xie Lingqin say?"
"Oh, she said you were given a laxative and your condition is not good. How could I let her underestimate you, Your Highness? I told her it was just a laxative, nothing to you."
---Aside---
The Crown Prince was heartbroken.
What a terrible teammate!
