"No! Absolutely not!" Ling Xiang immediately denied, "This is a misunderstanding, Your Majesty. Although I do not approve of your act of climbing through the window, I would not use a poison pill to plot against you. Really, please don't misunderstand me."
Xuanyuan Qi approached: "Then tell me, how did this poison powder get on the window?"
Ling Xiang certainly wouldn't betray Xiaoyu, so she took out the antidote and said, "Your Majesty, your health is the most important thing. Don't worry about anything else, just detoxify first."
Xuanyuan Qi believed that it was not Ling Xiang's doing, but he did not want to let Ling Xiang go. He snatched the antidote and threw it aside, approaching step by step.
In the past, Ling Xiang would not retreat even a single step, but today she felt she was not justified and retreated subconsciously. Soon, she was forced into a corner by Xuanyuan Qi.
Xuanyuan Qi stretched out his hands and circled Ling Xiang in front of him: "Ling Xiang, am I a monster? Why are you so wary of me?"
"No! Absolutely not!" Ling Xiang smiled flatteringly and tentatively nudged Xuanyuan Qi, who was too close. "Your Highness, if I really wanted to poison you, it wouldn't be so light. At least poisoning you half to death would be in line with my style, don't you think?"
Xuanyuan Qi gritted his teeth: "Do you really want to poison me?"
Ling Xiang's explanation made things worse. She was speechless and could only lie and tell Xuanyuan Qi to drink her mind.
"Your Highness is handsome, powerful, gentle, and extremely intelligent. I admire you so much, how could it be possible... well..."
Ling Xiang's pupils trembled, his mind went blank, and he even forgot to breathe...
She was pushed against the wall?
How could he, how could he!
It took Ling Xiang a long time to catch her breath, and she immediately pushed Xuanyuan Qi away.
However, the man held her tightly in his arms, and she couldn't push him away at all.
Ling Xiang had never touched a man in her two lives and had no idea how to deal with it. In anger, her teeth reacted faster than her brain and she bit Xuanyuan Qi directly.
"Hiss—" Xuanyuan Qi felt pain and finally let go of Ling Xiang. He wiped the blood from his lips and said, "Ling Xiang, are you born in the Year of the Dog?"
"Xuanyuan Qi, I really didn't expect that you would be this kind of person!" Ling Xiang was so angry that she kicked Xuanyuan Qi.
Xuanyuan Qi was quick to catch Ling Xiang's kick. Even at this moment, he did not forget to teach Ling Xiang: "Your kick was full of flaws. Not only did it fail to hit me, but it also gave up the initiative. Now, I only need to pull it lightly to make you throw yourself into my arms."
Ling Xiang maintained the one-legged stance and really wanted to win back a game, but she couldn't retract her right foot that had kicked out.
hateful!
Ling Xiang was not afraid of losing, and there were four golden needles on her fingertips, ready to go: "Xuanyuan Qi, you can try and see if you can handle this girl's embrace!"
Xuanyuan Qi wasn't really afraid of Ling Xiang's golden needles, but seeing that Ling Xiang was about to explode, he didn't want to provoke her, so he chose to let her go. "Ling Xiang, in fact, even if you gave me poison, I would eat it without hesitation."
Ling Xiang wiped her lips vigorously: "Dare to take advantage of me, I really want to poison you to death!"
"I'm not a frivolous person. I just couldn't help myself." Xuanyuan Qi took out the Dragon Scale Sword that he could only give away once in his lifetime, treasured it, and held it in front of Ling Xiang with both hands.
"Ling Xiang, I love you. I want to marry you and spend the rest of my life with you. I will treat you well, protect you, and give you the best. No matter who has a conflict with you, I will stand by you unconditionally."
Ling Xiang was struck by lightning and subconsciously denied: "Your Majesty, are you kidding me..."
Xuanyuan Qi was extremely serious: "I never joke about important matters in life! Ling Xiang, I really like you!"
Fortunately, Ling Xiang had enough experience in rejecting men, and she quickly thought of a reason to reject Xuanyuan Qi: "But, Your Highness, Nangong Yu and I are already... My marriage to him is still ongoing, and he is your cousin!"
"I don't mind!"
"I mind! The entire Zhenguohou Mansion, the entire capital, and even the entire Dajing Empire mind!" Ling Xiang said excitedly.
"Let's not talk about the distant past. Let's talk about your father. If he knew that I was holding the title of the future Princess of Qin and was with you... doing that to you, he would chop off my head!"
Xuanyuan Qi said firmly: "I can make Nangong Yu cancel the engagement right now!"
Ling Xiang tried her best to dissuade Xuanyuan Qi: "So what if the engagement is broken off? That doesn't change the fact that I was once engaged to your cousin! No one can accept that I'm with his cousin after breaking off the engagement with the King of Qin, and the royal family can't accept it!"
Xuanyuan Qi leaned over and stared into Ling Xiang's eyes seriously, saying earnestly and firmly: "Ling Xiang, I won't let anyone criticize you! As long as you agree, no one can stop us from being together! I promise!"
Ling Xiang could see that Xuanyuan Qi was serious.
However, she had never thought of marrying and having children with anyone in the book when she came here, not to mention that the other person was a devil that no one dared to provoke easily. Once provoked, she would definitely not be able to get rid of him for the rest of her life!
Although her opinion of him has changed, it is not yet to the point where she can have a relationship with him.
"What if I can't agree?"
"Then I'll wait until you agree!"
Xuanyuan Qi's eyes were too intense. Ling Xiang didn't know how to handle the situation. She lowered her eyes and said, "Your Highness, this happened too suddenly. Please allow me to think about it..."
"Okay, think about it carefully. I'll wait for you no matter how long it takes." Xuanyuan Qi opened Ling Xiang's palm, placed the Dragon Scale Sword in Ling Xiang's hand, and gently closed her palm. "This is the first and last time I'm giving you something. Don't refuse."
Ling Xiang's palms felt slightly hot, not sure if it was because of the Dragon Scale Sword or Xuanyuan Qi.
Knowing Xuanyuan Qi's overbearing nature, Ling Xiang did not refuse. "Then I will keep it for you first. Later, if you want to take it back, I will return it to you at any time."
Ling Xiang had no idea that the Dragon Scale Sword was made by Xuanyuan Qi using the scales from his reverse scale. It was an engagement token given by the dragon clan to lovers, and accepting it meant a lifelong commitment.
Xuanyuan Qi didn't explain anything, only said: "I won't give you a chance to return it."
Ling Xiang felt the Dragon Scale Sword in her hand getting hotter and hotter, so she quickly put it into her storage bag and changed the subject: "Your Highness, you haven't detoxified yet."
Xuanyuan Qi searched around and finally found the antidote he had just thrown aside. He gave it to Ling Xiang and said, "Detoxify me."
She could just take the antidote, but Ling Xiang suspected that if she said that, Xuanyuan Qi might ask her to feed him, which was definitely something he could do...
She took the antidote, crushed it and sprinkled it on Xuanyuan Qi's palm, then took out a bottle of pills: "Apply it externally and take it internally, and the prince will be well soon."
Fortunately, Xuanyuan Qi was very happy that Ling Xiang personally applied the medicine to him. He did not make any excessive demands and took out the pill and ate it.
Ling Xiang couldn't face Xuanyuan Qi, who had kissed her, calmly. She felt uncomfortable seeing his broken lips, and tried to find something to distract him. "By the way, Prince, have you found that poison master?"
