Chapter 37 Or is it that you want to be on the bottom?



Miss, are you really not going to question the Crown Prince?

Of course, neither of them dared to ask any more questions.

Xie Yushu was extremely efficient and quickly found several capable nannies and maids.

Xie Lingqin handed the matter over to Tridacna and then stopped interfering.

Because of Xie Lingqin's injury, the Prefect of the Capital sent someone to inquire about her well-being and also brought a lot of comforting gifts.

Xie Lingqin was somewhat surprised. After all, the Prefect of the Capital was an elder, and she had even disciplined his daughter. Even though he now looked at her with some respect, her politeness made him feel a little guilty.

After all, she was the one who attempted to assassinate the emperor, and all the recent events in the capital were either related to her or involved her personally.

She had heard about it; if it weren't for the Marquis of Zhongyong, Prince Qing, and several high-ranking officials in the court pleading on her behalf, the Prefect of the Capital might have really lost his official position.

On this day, Qingshui Pavilion was extremely quiet.

The heavy sky quickly darkened, and finally, a figure silently entered the General's Mansion, went straight to the Clear Water Pavilion, and entered the main house.

"Miss Lingqin, why don't you go and see the Crown Prince?"

"Is he so angry with me?"

Xie Lingqin put down the book in her hand, looked at Tingfeng kneeling on the ground, and didn't even raise her eyebrows.

"Miss Lingqin, the Crown Prince is still alive."

"Oh, then let him recover well. If he doesn't know he's done wrong, he shouldn't bother me."

“Miss Lingqin, how can the Crown Prince be well? He refuses to change his dressing or take his medicine, saying he just wants you to feel sorry for him. But this is heartbreaking for us.”

Listening to Feng's bitter tone, he was practically about to kowtow to Xie Lingqin.

Xie Lingqin paused as she was about to turn the page, turned her head to look at Tingfeng, and saw that he had a worried look on his face.

"He really won't take his medicine or change his medication?"

Xie Lingqin's tone became noticeably harsher.

Tingfeng nodded, not daring to lie in the slightest, "Yes, I'm not allowed to tell you yet. I really couldn't stand it anymore, so I forced my way out, hoping that Miss Lingqin could persuade her."

"Is he out of his mind?"

The next moment, Xie Lingqin threw down the book in her hand and stood in front of Tingfeng in an instant, "Take me there."

"yes."

Tingfeng was almost moved to tears. Just moments ago, he thought Miss Lingqin was a cold goddess, but now she was a gentle fairy.

Two figures moved like willow leaves brushing against the wind, arriving at the Crown Prince's residence, where all was quiet.

Xie Lingqin landed in the main courtyard of the Crown Prince's residence.

A group of guards stood in the main courtyard. They all visibly relaxed when they saw Xie Lingqin. Tingyu immediately came forward, her thin face showing rare surprise. "Miss Lingqin, you've finally arrived."

Xie Lingqin waved her hand dismissively, "Where is he?"

"The Crown Prince went into the hot spring pool in the dark room and hasn't come out since this morning. He won't come out no matter who calls him, and he won't take any medicine or apply any medication."

Listening to the rain.

Xie Lingqin's face darkened. "Take me there."

Tingyu immediately led Xie Lingqin towards the main house, then pointed to an inconspicuous protrusion on the side of the silk couch, "Miss Lingqin, that is the switch for the secret room. We subordinates are not allowed to enter without the Crown Prince's order."

Xie Lingqin nodded and raised her hand to activate the mechanism.

Suddenly, the wall next to the bed, which was covered with paintings, split open, creating a doorway.

Xie Lingqin looked at it, then looked at Tingyu, "Bring me the medicine, gauze, and food that need to be changed."

"Yes, the medicine has been kept warm."

Tingyu was incredibly quick; in no time, she had brought them all and handed them to Xie Lingqin.

Tingfeng followed in, looking on expectantly, "Miss Lingqin, please...please don't kick the Crown Prince, okay?"

Xie Lingqin...

Is she really that reckless?

"You two keep a close watch on the yard to prevent anyone from trespassing."

"yes."

Both of them responded with confidence.

After watching Xie Lingqin enter the dark room and the hidden door close gently, Tingyu and Tingfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Hopefully, the Crown Prince will recover soon.

As soon as the two stepped out of the main house, a man immediately came up to them.

"Guard Ye, what is it?" Tingfeng asked.

“Guardian Tingfeng, that guy… he’s been a bit rowdy today.”

The visitor lowered his voice and looked worried as he looked at Tingfeng and Tingyu.

Upon hearing this, Tingfeng and Tingyu glanced at the tightly closed main room door behind them and shook their heads. "The Crown Prince is still in the dark room. Right now, we're counting on Miss Lingqin to help him recover quickly."

"Then, what should we do about this?"

"His Highness the Crown Prince previously instructed that since the Gu poison in that person's body has not been completely cured, she must not get close to Miss Lingqin."

"Alright, I'll go back and send people to keep an eye on things. I'll come back and report to the Crown Prince when he comes out."

The man called Guard Ye then withdrew.

...

The dark room was brightly lit and inlaid with luminous pearls; it was no dark room at all, but rather a magnificent and luxurious palace.

The ground was clean and calm, and the faint sound of dripping water could be heard ahead.

Of course, Xie Lingqin had no interest in appreciating the dark room and walked straight ahead.

After walking for a short while, the view suddenly opened up, and in the center came a hot spring pool that was more than 100 square meters in size.

Warm water mist rises and floats in the air, resembling a fairyland, while on the other side, warm water flows continuously from a hole, falling into the water and making splashing sounds.

It must have been the sound of water she had just heard.

Therefore, this location is truly natural and excellent, with hot spring water flowing down and replacing it naturally.

In the very center, Yuwen Yao stood in the middle of the pool. The water reached his waist, soaking his white undergarment. His black hair cascaded down, his face was like jade, his eyebrows were painted, and his smooth collarbone led down to his firm, undulating chest.
