Qu Li: "The Queen Mother has indeed woken up!"
Hearing this, Kangdi relaxed his brows and his tense nerves completely relaxed.
"Then may I go in and take a look?"
"Your Majesty, please go in alone. Don't take too long!"
Kangdi nodded repeatedly.
After Qu Li helped him disinfect, he walked into the side hall.
"Mother!"
The Empress Dowager had a white gauze wrapped around her head and looked a little unwell.
Seeing Kangdi, she was obviously excited.
"Mother, can you see me?"
The Empress Dowager hummed softly, "Except for a slight headache, I can see it."
"The doctor said that the wound will be a little painful after the operation, but from now on, mother will no longer be unable to sleep at night due to headaches!"
Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager was overjoyed.
"Mother, the doctor said you just finished the operation and can't talk for too long. I'll be leaving first! You should have a good rest."
"good!"
After talking for a few words, the Queen Mother was indeed a little tired. After Emperor Kang left, she fell into a daze.
Qu Li had already expended a lot of energy during the operation, and she stayed up late last night to take care of the Empress Dowager. Changle was afraid that she couldn't bear it, so she asked her to rest first.
"Keep an eye on the Queen Mother. If she wakes up, call me." Qu Li warned before leaving.
"Don't worry, Master."
Qu Li went to another side hall, lay down, and soon his breathing became long.
Xiao Xian walked in slowly and looked at the man with a frown on his face due to fatigue, feeling complicated.
Qu Li vaguely felt someone staring at her. She squinted her eyes and met Xiao Xian's eyes full of apology.
Her heartstrings trembled violently, and she became cautious, deciding to wait and see what would happen.
"I have already investigated clearly. Caiju is Shaoyao's biological sister. Cuiliu appeared to have committed suicide, but in fact, she was strangled to death and then faked it as a suicide."
Qu Li sneered in his heart.
The damage has been done, and no amount of apologies will make it worse.
What's more, she didn't need his so-called apology.
Um?
Her eyelashes trembled slightly.
She has now disguised herself as a miracle doctor!
What did Xiao Xian mean by saying this to her?
Did the Grand Princess tell him that she disguised herself and entered the palace to perform surgery on the Empress Dowager?
"If you wake up, then let's have a good talk."
Qu Li took a deep breath and suddenly opened his eyes.
When their eyes met, the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
Xiao Xian lowered the corners of his lips and raised his hand to look at the wound on her forehead.
Qu Li dodged and slapped his hand away, "I really don't understand what King Chen just said!"
"Qu Li!"
He suddenly moved closer.
"What are you doing?" Qu Li's eyes were filled with disgust. There was a sharp scalpel in his hand, which he slashed on the back of his hand without any hesitation.
The skin and flesh were turned over and the smell of blood was everywhere.
He looked at the wound on the back of his hand with complicated eyes, and felt a stuffy sensation in his heart, as if there was a huge stone blocking it.
"Feel sorry!"
His words made Qu Li stunned for a moment, and then he laughed out loud with a sarcastic look.
"If Prince Chen is alright, please leave! Don't embarrass each other."
"I will give you an explanation!"
"Xiao Xian!"
Qu Li really didn't want to hear his voice. Since he already knew her identity, she simply stopped hiding it.
"If you're truly sorry, write a letter of divorce!"
A cold look appeared in Xiao Xian's eyes, and his whole body was shrouded in murderous intent.
"Do you really want to leave me?"
“Xiao Xian, don’t you think you are narrow-minded?”
She is not a love-brained person, and she will not do anything reckless just because she falls in love at first sight!
She saved Feng Yi at the beginning because she didn't want the crazy horse to hurt innocent people, and she happened to have the ability to do so.
After the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, she stopped Xiao Xian from taking action because she didn't want to cause any more trouble.
But he was ridiculous and believed that there was something going on between her and Feng Yi.
"Is this king narrow-minded?"
Xiao Xian lost all his rationality and calmness, and the look he gave Qu Li was extremely deep and dangerous.
“Isn’t that narrow-minded?”
Qu Li felt that the distance between them was too close, so he simply stood up and moved towards the palace door.
Xiao Xian narrowed his eyes and stared at her without blinking.
"Before, you were like a dog-skin plaster, wishing you could stick to me. Now, if you haven't fallen in love with someone else and have developed feelings for Feng Yi, then are you still playing hard to get?"
Qu Li sneered, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
"Xiao Xian, you are truly ridiculous! If I tell you that I'm not playing hard to get, will you write a letter of release?"
Xiao Xian's heart was filled with restlessness, which made his eyes bloodshot.
He was as agile as a leopard and appeared in front of Qu Li in the blink of an eye. He put his long arms on the side of her head and gave her a wall-bang.
The hot breath stained with anger fell all over Qu Li's face. Her palms were filled with sweat, and even her heart stopped beating.
She tried to remain calm and spoke slowly.
"Xiao Xian, from the very beginning, you've hated my persistence! You're pestering me like this now, only because you can't stand my indifference, or even because you think I'm in love with someone else!"
Xiao Xian's pupils constricted.
He really hated Qu Li.
I used to wish she could die far away and never appear in front of me again.
I don't know when it started, but he also started chasing after her and admiring her.
"Since we've hurt each other, why not let each other go? Maybe we can still be friends in the future! As long as you write a letter of divorce, I promise that I will never appear in front of you again. Moreover, I promise you three things!"
Xiao Xian's expression became increasingly gloomy. If his gaze had become physical, Qu Li would have been shot into a sieve by now.
His chin was suddenly pinched, and he stared into her eyes with a gloomy look, emphasizing each word: "Qu. Li. You. Are. Dreaming!"
Qu Li felt a little tired.
"Seventh cousin! The Empress Dowager is awake!"
Changle didn't know Xiao Xian was inside, so she pushed the door open and walked in.
When I saw the scene in front of me, my jaw dropped in shock.
"Seven, seven, seven..."
Xiao Xian said sternly, "Get out!"
Changle was so scared that his heart was pounding and he retreated in a panic.
"The royal family has not divorced, so please give up on this thought!"
“Everything depends on human effort!”
"you--"
Xiao Xian was filled with rage, and he leaned over and grabbed her lips in a fit of rage.
A huge shame came over Qu Li, and his eyes twitched. He took advantage of Xiao Xian's unpreparedness and stabbed the back of his neck with an anesthetic needle.
Xiao Xian only felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck, and the cold anesthetic was pushed into his neck.
"Qu Li, you——"
His eyes rolled back and he collapsed.
Qu Li breathed a sigh of relief, wiped his lips vigorously, and kicked him twice in disgust.
"You bastard, I'll let you kiss me with the same mouth you used to kiss Bai Fengyao!"
With a fierce look in her eyes, she simply stuck the anesthetic needle into his lips.
After a tube of anesthetic was injected, Xiao Xian's thin lips instantly became plump and thick, like sizzling sausages.
Qu Li sneered, stepped on his arm, opened the door of the side hall, and walked out slowly.
