Chapter 68: The consequences of her anger were even more severe

  "But is there still another way?" Feng Lingyun suddenly spoke up, seeing his painful expression.

  "Which includes you, if you dare to leak this matter out, I will..." Xuan Yuan Ye was lost in sorrow and contemplation, and for a moment did not hear Feng Lingyun's words clearly, thinking that he was refuting him. And he was also afraid that he would leak the matter out, he had finally managed to bring her back, and he didn't want anything, any reason, to make her leave again.

  Just then, after the outburst, it seemed that he had only faintly felt the meaning of Feng Lingyun's words, and so he asked again, "What did you just say?" One hand even grabbed Feng Lingyun tightly.

  Feng Lingyun was just a doctor, but he had never practiced martial arts. Being grabbed by him like this, his arm almost broke off, and the pain made him cry out in surprise, "Ah, let go! Are you going to kill me now? Don't you want to give me a chance?"

  At this moment, the sound of Feng Lingyun's voice was tinged with pain and a hint of anger, but it was also half-joking, half-serious. This kind of Xuan Yuan Ye once again made him stunned.

  Xuan Yuan Ye, who had always been known for his exceptional hearing, surprisingly didn't even catch what he said, and to make matters worse, Xuan Yuan Ye only reacted after shouting, and in a state of disarray, grabbed his wrist.

  If it weren't for the sharp pain on his wrist reminding him, he would have doubted what he was seeing with his own eyes.

  "What did you just say, say it again." Xuan Yuan Ye didn't pay attention to his slightly joking tone and asked urgently for the second time, was Feng Lingyun just saying that there is still a way? Or did he hear wrong?

  On one side, Su Feng's lips twitched even more fiercely. Originally, he was secretly delighted when he heard Feng Lingyun's words, but unexpectedly, the prince suddenly roared at Feng Lingyun, and he was still secretly puzzled and perplexed.

  Unexpectedly, Your Highness has made a scene, and it turns out that you didn't hear what Feng Lingyun said.

  "I said, I suddenly thought of another way." Feng Lingyun endured the pain, secretly took a deep breath, and this time spoke slowly. This time, he intentionally raised his voice and emphasized his tone, as if afraid that Xuan Yuan Ye still couldn't hear clearly.

  The words paused slightly, then looked at Xuan Yuan Ye's tightly grasping hand on his arm and said with a hint of negotiation, "I say, Your Highness, can you let go of me first? If this continues, I'm afraid my arm will really be broken. Although I am a doctor and can heal myself, it's not that easy."

  Feng Lingyun's words, although tinged with a hint of jest, were accompanied by a somewhat somber expression, for indeed it was too painful. Of course, if not for seeing Xuan Yuan Ye in such a state of disarray today, had it been the usual icy-faced Xuan Yuan Ye, he would never have dared to utter such words.

  Now Xuan Yuan Ye suddenly realized that he was just an ordinary person, not the all-powerful and invincible being they had imagined him to be.

  No matter how strong a person is, once they have a weakness, they are no longer invincible. And now, Meng Duan Ying has become Xuan Yuan Ye's greatest weakness.

  Xuanyuan Ye's hand quickly loosened, but a pair of eyes still stared straight at Feng Lingyun and asked urgently, "What method?"

  Now, he no longer has the mind to care about his usual image, nor does he have the mind to worry about whether others will see his weaknesses.

  "My master." Feng Lingyun's eyes flashed slightly, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he spoke slowly, word by word. However, as he spoke, his eyes seemed to hide a hint of something unusual, and the corners of his mouth seemed to involuntarily twitch, as if recalling some particularly troublesome matter.

  Xuanyuan Ye's eyebrows also slightly furrowed, and he said in a low voice, "Your master?" His tone also carried a hint of obvious doubt.

  Feng's family is a medical family for generations, does Feng Lingyun still need to apprentice?

  However, thinking about it, although the Feng family is a medical family, in the past, there hasn't been anyone as fierce as Feng Lingyun.

  "Yes." Feng Lingyun nodded slightly, her lips twitching again as she saw Xuan Yuan Ye's confusion. This time, she explained slowly, "Although the Wind family is a medical family, after all, there have been no breakthroughs in many years. So when I was seven years old, my father sent me to apprentice."

  Feng Lingyun's words paused slightly, and his face became even more unusual. He continued, "My master was very strange and didn't get along with me at all. I had to kneel on that snowy mountain for ten days and nights before he would see me. Luckily, with just one glance, he took a liking to me and said I had great potential, so he accepted me as his disciple. However, he only taught me for two years before sending me down the mountain."

  At this point, Feng Lingyun's lips twitched again, and his voice also had a few more regrets.

  "You say, I didn't do anything wrong, studied well, and besides, he hadn't even learned his own fur properly, yet he drove me down the mountain like that. Alas, my master was indeed a strange person."

  Xuanyuan Ye was taken aback by his words, and if he had to say, Feng Lingyun's medical skills were among the best in the world. Yet, just now Feng Lingyun said that even his master's skin hadn't been learned well, which showed how formidable that person's medical skills were.

  Thinking of this, I have more hope in my heart, and I believe that person must have a way to cure her.

  "Where can I find that senior?" Xuan Yuan Ye looked at Feng Lingyun's eyes with obvious urgency, as if he wanted to fly over immediately and bring back the high-ranking person to treat her.

  "The problem is right here." Feng Lingyun saw his anxious face and didn't want to discourage him, but the fact was that he couldn't help but say it.

  "Huh?" Xuan Yuan Ye's eyebrows slightly raised, and his eyes also showed a few more hints of confusion.

  "I went up the snowy mountain several times after that, but I never met him again. He must have gone wandering around the world, so even I don't know where he is now." Feng Lingyun let out a soft sigh, with a hint of regret in his voice.

  Xuanyuan Ye's eyebrows furrowed again, and the hope in his eyes slowly disappeared.

  Moreover, the old man's temper is even more peculiar. He never lays a hand on those he doesn't get along with to treat them, even if you die right in front of him, his eyes won't bat an eyelid. So even if we find him, we have to see if the princess has this affinity with him.

  Feng Lingyun saw Xuan Yuan Ye's slightly gloomy face and felt a bit heavy in her heart, but she had to continue speaking.

  After all, the master's strange temper and sometimes hard heart were seen with his own eyes. If he got along with the master, there was no need to ask for it. The old man could go up the mountain to give people medicine. But if he didn't like you, no matter how much you begged, it would be useless. Even if you piled up mountains of gold and silver in front of him, he wouldn't even glance at them.

  The glimmer of hope that had just appeared in Xuan Yuan Ye's eyes has now completely disappeared. Not to mention now, it's not even known where that person is. Even if found, whether they can be cured or not is still a problem. This hope is too slim.

  "No matter where he is, I will find him." However, his eyes narrowed slightly and he said in a low voice again, no matter what, first find the person now, after finding the person, there is hope.

  "Fortunately, as long as Your Highness has the determination, I believe you will definitely be able to find him. In fact, he has always been elusive." Feng Lingyun nodded slightly, and her eyes also showed a few more hints of hope.

  He felt that his master seemed to have the ability to predict, and could calculate some things. Because once, when he encountered a very tricky problem, he received a letter from his master on the same day, which was exactly about that problem.

  "I'll give her some medicine first and help her recover a bit." Feng Lingyun looked at Meng Fu Ying on the bed again, his voice also became heavier, with a hint of regret in his eyes, and he muttered, "Hope it helps her a bit."

  "En." Xuan Yuan Ye also responded in a low voice, looking at Meng Cui Ying, his eyes were filled with deep pain. After thinking for a moment, he said again, "This matter, don't let her know either, no one can tell her."

  He was afraid, afraid that she would know about this matter and choose to leave. Even more afraid, she couldn't bear such a blow.

  Feng Lingyun was taken aback once again, but immediately understood Xuan Yuan Ye's meaning. Her heart couldn't help but feel even more moved, never knowing that Xuan Yuan Ye would be so meticulous in considering others.

  After taking the medicine, Feng Lingyun left and thought about going to try his luck, to see if he could find that elusive master of his.

  The Empress Dowager returned to the palace and really went to find the Emperor to discuss the matter of Ice Mountain Snow Lotus.

  "Your Majesty, the young lady is still unconscious, and Yan seems to have gone mad, saying he wants to come to the palace to take her. Fortunately, I was able to persuade him otherwise. But this matter..." The Empress Dowager's voice was tinged with hesitation, yet also with a hint of entreaty, for the sake of Ying, she implored someone, and what did it matter that the person she was imploring was the Emperor himself.

  "After all, the Ice Mountain Snow Lotus was originally meant to save people. Since that girl needs it, I'll just take it. There's no need to discuss this with me. As for Yan'er's feelings towards that girl, how could I not see it? Now, although it's about saving that girl, it's also about saving Yan'er. One Ice Mountain Snow Lotus can save both of their lives; why wouldn't I be delighted?" The Emperor smiled slightly, his tone extremely relaxed yet filled with joy.

  Although the ice mountain snow lotus has the effect of reviving the dead, or can save his life in times of crisis, after all, he is still fine and nothing is wrong with him now. He cannot be selfish and keep it for himself, let alone that human life is in heaven, and it is also impossible to beg for it.

  The empress dowager was thoroughly shocked, never expecting that the emperor would so easily agree, after all, when Concubine Rou was poisoned that day, the emperor didn't even mention bringing out Bing Shan Xue Lian.

  The emperor's words also moved her deeply, and she suddenly felt that the change in Yinger was not just about Ruoer alone.

  "I'd like to thank the Emperor on behalf of those two children." The Empress's voice was visibly more agitated, and also carried too much comfort. She suddenly felt that this imperial palace had finally gained true feelings, and it was such selfless true feelings.

  "The empress's words have made me feel ashamed." The emperor's lips curled up slightly, and he spoke again in a soft voice. If it were the past, he might not have agreed, even if it were for Ruo Er, he would have hesitated.

  The empress dowager, filled with excitement and joy, personally sent the Ice Mountain Snow Lotus to the Hou Wang Fu.

  "Grandma Huang, just now Feng Lingyun came to check on our daughter and said that she's really fine and will wake up on her own." Xuan Yuan Ye looked at the icy Snow Lotus, his eyes also filled with obvious surprise. He hadn't expected that Father would actually agree, and so quickly too. However, earlier Feng Lingyun had said that the poison in her body had already been eliminated.

  Now, her body, except for that deficiency, does not have any other problems, so this Iceberg Snow Lotus is of no use to her at all.

  Now, the only hope is to find Feng Lingyun's master as soon as possible, who can save her.

  "Nothing's wrong?" The empress was taken aback, the joy on her face slightly frozen. In her opinion, this Ice Mountain Snow Lotus could bring people back from the dead, so as long as she had a breath of air left, she could be saved.

  However, Xuan Yuan Ye told her that Ying Ya Tou was fine, just that the tone of his words made her feel that things were not so simple. Wouldn't it be that Ying Ya Tou's illness couldn't even be cured by this Ice Mountain Snow Lotus?

  "Yan'er, tell the empress dowager the truth, is Meng Cuiying really all right?" The empress dowager's eyes gazed at Meng Cuiying on the bed, clearly not believing Xuan Yuan Yan's words.

  "Empress Dowager, please be at ease, it's really nothing. Otherwise, how could Yan'er possibly not use this Ice Mountain Snow Lotus?" Xuan Yuan Yan suppressed the worry and sorrow in his heart, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips as he gently persuaded the Empress Dowager.

  The empress dowager saw the faint smile at the corner of his lips, hesitated for a moment, thought for a while, and then said, "Well, that's good, as long as nothing happens to Yinger, I just hope she can wake up soon."

  "En." Xuan Yuan Ye responded softly, but the smile at the corner of his lips seemed to hesitate for a moment. Feng Lingyun said she would wake up on her own because her body was still relatively healthy and there were no other problems. However, as for why she suddenly fainted, Feng Lingyun didn't give a clear reason either.

  After sending away the Empress Dowager, Xuan Yuan Ye still stood guard in front of the bed, his eyes fixed on her, hoping she would wake up at any moment.

  Qing bamboo and those few maids had been in the hall all along, but Xuan Yuan Ye never left, so they didn't dare to move forward.

  Originally thought Meng Fu Ying would wake up soon, but until evening, she still showed no signs of waking up.

  Xuanyuan Ye crouched on the bed for a whole day, without changing his posture, and didn't even eat dinner.

  "Your Highness, please eat something first. Since Feng Lingyun said the princess will wake up, she definitely will. Your Highness doesn't have to be so anxious." Su Feng couldn't bear to watch anymore and carefully advised, if this continues, when the princess wakes up, won't Your Highness also collapse?

  After all, who can endure this kind of non-stop suffering, not eating or drinking, not sleeping or resting? Moreover, Your Highness must be extremely heartbroken now, enduring the double torture of mind and body.

  However, Xuan Yuan Ye seemed as if he hadn't heard his words and remained motionless, squatting on the bed, as if he had become a statue.

  Su Feng quietly let out a sigh and slightly shook his head, not saying anything else. Having followed the young master for so many years, he was most clear about the young master's temperament.

  Qīng zhú gèng shì bù gǎn shuō shén me, yě zhǐ néng zhàn zài hòu mian gān zhe jí.

  Translation:

  Qing Zhu did not dare to say anything and could only stand behind anxiously.

  "What's wrong? What's going on?" Xuan Yuan Qing, who had just sobered up from his drunkenness in the evening, rushed over as soon as he heard the news.

  Even though it's already very late, the palace has long since stopped allowing people to come and go as they please, but she still changed into a eunuch's clothes, pretending to be on an errand for the empress dowager, and snuck out.

  As soon as she entered the room, she didn't see Meng Fu's figure on the bed, but instead saw Xuan Yuan Ye crouching beside the bed, which startled her. Was this still the Seventh Brother in her heart? How could he be so haggard?

  However, thinking that Ying Er has been unconscious for almost a day and night, Seventh Brother must be worried to death now.

  Her eyes slightly turned, seeing the dishes on the table, and she also suddenly understood that Seventh Brother must not have eaten, with a hint of heartache, for Meng Cuiying as well as for her Seventh Brother.

  "See the princess." Qing Zhu and Su Feng saw her suddenly rushing in, quickly paying their respects, but seeing that she was wearing eunuch's clothes, they couldn't help but twitch at the corners of their mouths. This princess really is bold.

  Xuanyuan Qing waved his hand at them, signaling them to get up. He then slowly walked to the bedside and saw Meng Fuying lying motionless on the bed, a look of concern flashing across his eyes.

  Although she had many questions in her mind at this moment, when she saw Xuan Yuan Ye's appearance, she didn't ask anything, because she didn't want to make her Seventh Brother even more heartbroken.

  "Seventh brother, your current appearance is really too terrifying. Just now, I almost couldn't recognize you." Xuan Yuan Qing's eyes slightly turned towards Xuan Yuan Ye, carefully sizing him up before intentionally saying, "If you weren't guarding Seventh sister's bedside, I really wouldn't dare to recognize you."

  In that half-true and half-false tone, there is too much heartache hidden.

  Xuanyuan was taken aback, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, but his eyes remained fixed on Meng Cuo's shadow, not moving an inch or saying a word.

  "It's not a big deal whether I can recognize you or not, but if Seventh Sister wakes up and doesn't recognize you, only to be scared unconscious again by you, Seventh Brother, isn't that a bit of a problem?" Xuan Yuan didn't hear his response and wasn't angry, instead continuing to mutter to herself.

  This time, Xuan Yuan Ye finally lifted his head and looked at Xuan Yuan Qing. His lips moved slightly as he spoke slowly, word by word, "Is the king's appearance really that terrifying?"

  There seems to be a hint of concern in his voice, not about his appearance, but that he might really scare her off, just as Xuan Yuan Qing said.

  "Go take a look in the mirror, won't you know then?" Xuan Yuan Qing slightly glanced at the mirror on one side with her mouth.

  Xuanyuan Ye's eyebrows simply furrowed again, but he didn't move.

  "Seventh brother, you have to take care of Seventh sister, and also pay attention to your own body, if your body collapses, who will protect Seventh sister? So, at least food is still needed, and in order for Seventh sister to see a handsome and elegant Seventh brother when she wakes up, so clothes and appearance are also important."

  She knew that Meng Cuo Ying was the most important person in Qi Ge's heart now, so she used Meng Cuo Ying to persuade him on everything, not believing that he couldn't be persuaded.

  His words paused slightly, his eyes flashing, and then he said deliberately, "Seventh Brother doesn't want Seventh Sister to see you in this haggard and disheveled state, do you? You're not afraid that if you really scare her, she'll go find someone more handsome, more..."

  "You can get out." Xuan Yuan Ye's eyes narrowed slightly as he coldly swept a glance at Xuan Yuan Qing, his voice filled with anger.

  However, with his body half-crouched, he slowly stood up. Nevertheless, possibly because of squatting for too long, his legs were numb and as soon as he had stood halfway up, his body stiffened.

  Seeing his subtle abnormality, Xuan Yuanqing's eyes flashed a hint of heartache again. Alas, her seventh brother was indeed deeply in love.

  However, he deliberately smiled and said, "Hmph, you want me to leave? I'll leave then. I'm here to watch the shadow puppet show. You go ahead and clean up, have your meal, I'll stay here and watch." As he spoke, he sat down in front of the bed.

  Xuan Yuan Ye quietly adjusted his clothes and stood up, and unexpectedly really walked to the mirror, when he saw his own appearance, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

  "Seventh brother, first eat your rice, then take a shower and change your clothes. By the time you're done, Seventh sister might wake up. Otherwise, with you sitting in front of her bed smelling all sweaty, Seventh sister will be suffocated to death, how can she wake up?" Xuan Yuan Qing saw that he was just staring blankly at the mirror, so she urged him again.

  Xuanyuan Ye looked at her again, thinking of last night's events, and his lips slightly curled up as he said in a low voice, "You're finally awake?"

  In a low and stern voice, a princess, surprisingly, got drunk in the imperial palace to such an extent that she just woke up now.

  If this matter gets out, it will have a great impact on her reputation. In the future, she still has to get married, even if not to Dongfang Shuo, but to someone else.

  Xuan Yuan Qing's body stiffened, the smile on his face also froze, and his eyes quickly turned to Xuan Yuan Ye, with a clear look of astonishment on his face. How did Seventh Brother know?

  Suddenly, she vaguely remembered that last night, Meng Fu Ying was watching her, and she originally thought she was dreaming, could it be true?

  She was with her last night, it seemed like she was pulling her along and saying a lot of things, I wonder if she would also mention that matter, will Seventh Brother know about it too?

  "This king shouldn't find a suitable person for you to marry, should he...?" Xuan Yuan Ye said with a hint of consideration as he saw the shocked expression on Xuan Yuan Qing's face, remembering how she had tears streaming down her face even in her sleep last night.

  He didn't want to force Xuan Yuan Qing, because he knew that this kind of thing couldn't be forced, but Xuan Yuan Qing was also not young anymore, and had to consider the issue eventually.

  "No." Xuan Yuan Qing didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and said repeatedly, with a face full of urgency, yet carrying obvious pain. She knew that Seventh Brother had found the best person, but unfortunately, in her heart...

  Xuan Yu looked at her eyes, which sparkled slightly, and took in the obvious pain, then said again in a low voice, "When you have someone you like, tell Gege about it."

  As soon as he finished speaking, he walked to the table, sat down and started eating. This was already his greatest tenderness, except for Meng Fuying, it was also the first time he said such caring words.

  Just now he said Seventh Brother, rather than Your Highness, which means he regards Xuan Yuan Qing as his true sister, not a princess. That represents familial affection, no longer power and authority.

  Xuanyuan Qing's eyes widened slightly, and her pupils flashed with a hint of unexpected gratitude. She really didn't expect Xuanyuan Ye to say such words to her, arrogant yet indulgent, having such an older brother was truly blissful.

  Unfortunately, the person she loves is...

  Xuanyuan Qing didn't say anything else, he just stood blankly in front of Meng Fuyao's bed, staring at Meng Fuyao dazedly, not knowing what she was thinking.

  Xuan Yuan Ye quickly finished his meal, then quickly took a bath, changed his clothes, and sent Xuan Yuan Qing back, after all, she had sneaked out secretly.

  "You all go down and rest too." Xuan Yuan Ye glanced at Qing Zhu and Su Feng, then whispered to them, "Fu Er can be taken care of by him."

  "Yes." Qing Zhu was taken aback for a moment, then respectfully responded and slowly backed away. Su Feng followed her out of the room and saw that she still had a worried look on her face, so he said in a low voice, "You don't have to worry too much either, with His Highness here, your master won't come to any harm. If anything happens, it will be His Highness who is in trouble."

  Ever since Your Highness met the princess, which time wasn't it that Your Highness was driven mad by the princess?

  Qing Zhu was taken aback, looking at Su Feng's eyes, a hint of surprise flashed by quickly, she hadn't expected that the usually cold and icy Su Feng would come to persuade her.

  When Su Feng met her slightly surprised gaze, he seemed to realize what he had just said, his face turned slightly red, and he quickly turned around and left.

  Only the green bamboo was left standing alone in the darkness, staring blankly at his back, this person is really inexplicable. She originally wanted to thank him, but he just ran away like that.

  After everyone left, Xuan Yuan Ye also took off his clothes, carefully got into bed, lay beside her, and tightly hugged her. Only in this way could he feel her true existence.

  The next day, he didn't go to the morning court and stayed by her side. Still, she hadn't woken up, which made him even more anxious. Originally, he thought of asking Feng Lingyun to come again, but thinking that Feng Lingyun had also said that there was nothing wrong with her body now, inviting Feng Lingyun would be useless, and might even raise suspicions. If someone asked about it, it would be...

  In the afternoon, Meng Fu Ying suddenly opened her eyes while lying in bed. It was that kind of sudden, rapid and extremely abrupt opening.

  She stared tightly at Xuan Yuan Ye for a moment, and was stunned, forgetting the reaction she should have had.

  "I'm so hungry." Meng Bufei felt his stomach was empty and aching, and he couldn't help but mutter to himself. He quickly sat up and saw Xuan Yuan Ye crouched in front of the bed, and he stared blankly, asking with a hint of confusion, "What are you doing?"

  Xuanyuan Ye quickly regained his composure, and the corners of his lips also burst into a bright smile. He then suddenly pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly, very tightly, so tightly that she almost couldn't breathe. His lips were pressed tightly against her ear, whispering softly, "You're finally awake."

  In that voice, there was an obvious surprise and excitement, as long as she could wake up, as long as she was fine, the rest didn't matter to him.

  Meng Fu Ying's eyes sparkled, and she suddenly remembered what had happened earlier. She recalled that he was going to spank her bottom, but then...then...she couldn't remember anything else.

  And he just said she finally woke up, did she faint?

  Look at it now, it's already afternoon, she remembers that he wanted to hit her when it was still evening, it seems that she really fainted.

  And it seems like I slept for quite a long time...

  But how could she suddenly faint like this, and she didn't even feel anything wrong with her body?

  "How did I faint?" Meng Fu Ying didn't push him away, because she knew that pushing would be useless, and besides, she felt that she was so hungry now that she had no strength at all. She had only fainted for half a day, how could she feel so hungry?

  Xuanyuan's eyes widened slightly, and the joy in her eyes also stiffened slightly. She thought about that matter, it couldn't be let her know, otherwise, with her temperament, the heart that had just opened up to him would definitely shrink back again. Although she was very decisive in other matters, when it came to emotional issues, she was extremely cautious and careful.

  So he didn't dare take the risk, and he also didn't want her to worry.

  "En," Xuan Yuan Ye nodded slightly a few times, his voice carrying a hint of deliberate hesitation, as if he wanted to say something but stopped himself.

  "What?" Meng Fu's eyebrows slightly raised, and he asked again, "Why is this question so hard to answer?"

  "I didn't think you'd be so fragile, just one slap and you're knocked out." Xuan Yuan Ye's face was still pressed against her shoulder, and he said this on purpose.

  He would rather let her misunderstand him, rather let her ignore him, than have her know the truth and be heartbroken.

  After all, being unable to have children is a fatal blow for a woman.

  Meng Fu Ying's body suddenly stiffened, and in the stiffness, there was a slight tremble. Then, she suddenly pushed Xuan Yu Yan away with force. Her eyes were wide open, staring straight at Xuan Yu Yan, saying slowly, word by word, "You...you really hit me?"

  What happened next, she really didn't remember, really didn't know if he had hit her or not. However, she clearly remembered that his hand was indeed aimed at her buttocks and came down heavily.

  And he just said with his own mouth that he really hit her and even fainted her with one slap.

  Just how much strength did he use for this slap?

  But she didn't feel any pain in her butt, and besides, a slap would never be enough to knock someone out.

  "Yes, I did hit you, but I didn't think it would knock you out... Your Majesty..." Seeing the doubt on her face, Xuan Yuan Ye said again with a confident expression.

  "Xuanyuan Ye......" Meng Wenyin suddenly roared with anger, this man actually dared to spank her butt, and what's more, he was so straightforward and unapologetic, without any shame, and even said that she didn't expect him to knock her out?

  Why didn't he just slap her to death directly?

  For a moment, I just felt ashamed and angry, but didn't think about anything else.

  A pair of eyes stared straight at him, the anger in those eyes was so intense that it seemed to want to burn him up immediately.

  Xuanyuan Ye's heart was slightly relieved, it's good that she was deceived, as long as she didn't ask about that matter again.

  Just then, hearing her angry roar, Xuan Yuan's body still couldn't help but tremble slightly. He had never seen her get so angry before. It turned out that when she was angry, she was even more terrifying than him.

  The green bamboo and the swift wind outside also trembled at the angry roar, and in their hearts, they secretly prayed for Xuan Yuan Ye.

  However, a clear joy still flashed across Qing Zhu's face, and she instructed the little maid beside her to send a message to the Empress Dowager in the imperial palace.

  "In fact, I didn't dare to use too much force either. And," Xuan Yuan Ye's heart also trembled slightly as he carefully explained, for a moment, he didn't know how to explain it, it seemed that every time he faced her, he would be at a loss."

  The two outside heard Xuan Yuan Ye's explanation, and the corners of their mouths twitched violently several times. They did not expect that their lord would also have a time to apologize to others, and it was still so careful.

  "You can go now." Meng Fu Ying glared at him fiercely, her face sinking, and then said coldly. Directly interrupting Xuan Yuan Ye's words, this man actually dared to say that he hadn't used enough force, what she cared about wasn't whether or not he had used enough force, but rather the issue of dignity.

  Qing Zhu and Su Feng were shocked to hear Meng Fu Ying's emotionless dismissal, their eyes wide with astonishment. The princess was indeed ruthless, not only expelling the prince but also doing so in such a forceful manner.

  "This is the king's palace, this is the king's room, where did the queen ask me to go?" Xuan Yuan Ye looked at her with an innocent face, saying slightly resentfully.

  Sweat, profuse sweat, the two outside were completely stunned, how could they have thought that Xuan Yuan Ye would say something like this, and with such a tone.

  Meng Fu Ying didn't say anything, but quietly took a deep breath, then suddenly got up and wanted to get out of bed. "Fine, you won't leave, I will, is that okay?"

  I've been lying in bed for two days and two nights, I'm so hungry that my chest is stuck to my back. Just now, I almost fell over because of the intense movement.

  "If you want to go, let's eat first and then go." Xuan Yuan Ye quickly supported her, softly advising, his voice though with a few intentional playful tones, but the gaze towards her was filled with unmistakable concern.

  "Qing Zhu, go and prepare food for the princess." Xuan Yuan Ye didn't give Meng Fu Ying any chance to retort, and once again shouted at Qing Zhu outside.

  "Yes." Qing Zhu regained her composure from the sudden shock, answering repeatedly, but in her heart, she was even more astonished. She had actually forgotten such an important thing, which was a serious dereliction of duty.

  After Meng Fu stabilized his figure, he opened his eyes again. However, in his heart, there were a few more doubts. Even if he had slept for a day, it shouldn't have made him so weak, right?

  It's really too hungry, even if angry, there's no need to be at odds with one's own stomach, so she still decided to eat first and then talk, just like he said earlier, leave after eating full, that way it takes effort.

  Qing Zhu quickly brought up the dishes, served the rice, and handed it to Meng Cui Ying's face, "Your Highness..."

  Meng Fu Ying quickly reached out and took it, sat down at the table, and started eating quickly. She didn't even bother to look at Xuan Yuan Ye who was sitting beside her, not even a glance.

  Xuanyuan Ye's lips twitched slightly, it seemed that this woman really did resent him. He wondered how he could get her to forgive him, sighing inwardly.

  Xuanyuan Ye saw her gobbling down food and was stunned for a moment, then said repeatedly, "Slow down, no one is competing with you."

  Meng Fu Ying seemed to have not heard his words at all, and continued eating on her own.

  Qing Zhu was very meticulous in his work. He thought that Xuan Yuan Ye hadn't had dinner yet, so he prepared two portions. Xuan Yuan Ye sat at the table, but didn't move his chopsticks.

  Xuanyuan Yan thought that she had slept for two days and two nights, so it was best to eat some light food. He pinched some vegetables and put them in her bowl, saying softly, "Eat more vegetables."

  Meng Fu Ying suddenly stopped, put the bowl and chopsticks on the table, then turned to Qing Zhu, word by word, clearly said, "Qing Zhu, get me another bowl."

  She said that if he really spanked her, she would not forgive him again, but he actually did it. At this moment, she was angry, annoyed and humiliated, how could she possibly forgive him so easily?

  Qing Zhu was stunned for a moment, somewhat at a loss, and hesitated as he looked towards Xuan Yuan Ye.

  "There's only this one bowl left." Xuan Yuan Ye's eyes flashed, and then he said with a straight face, without blushing or gasping for air.

  "Hmm, Meng Fu Ying was thoroughly annoyed by this man's ability to spout nonsense with his eyes open. Who could believe what he said? It was really impressive that he could say something so ridiculous with such a straight face."

  The Yisheng Prince's Manor is so poor that they don't even have a single bowl left, then the dignified prince can go beg for food.

  Qing Zhu was also thoroughly shocked, never expecting that Wang Ye would say something like this. Only one? Heaven, if she hadn't heard it with her own ears, she really wouldn't have dared to believe it.

  "Or use the king's bowl." Xuan Yuan Ye handed over the bowl in front of him, Meng Fu Ying just glanced at it slightly, and naturally wouldn't take it.

  "Or, I'll feed you myself." Seeing that she didn't take it, Xuan Yuan Ye wasn't annoyed, but instead intentionally said so. As he spoke, he actually stood up and walked around to her side, as if he really was going to feed her.

  The onlookers' eyes were wide with wonder, their eyeballs almost popping out.

  "I'm full." Meng Fu Ying froze, then said with a hint of annoyance, this man wouldn't think that she would forgive him just because he was being playful and unreasonable, would he?

  I just ate a bit and I'm half full now, I don't feel hungry anymore, so I won't eat anymore.

  "Oh, it's fine if you don't eat, it'll save some food." Xuan Yuan Ye heard her say she wasn't going to eat and immediately took back the bowl, once again speaking in a serious tone.

  She had slept for two days and two nights, just got up, he didn't want her to eat too much, lest she would feel uncomfortable later.

  Meng Fu Ying heard his words, the anger in her heart surged even more. This man was really too detestable! Did he mean that she eating would be a waste of food?

  Alright, very good, Xuan Yuan Ye, you win this time.

  Meng Fu Ying suppressed the anger in her heart, and her face regained its usual calmness. She didn't look at Xuan Yuan Ye again, but instead gazed at Qing Zhu with a flat expression, saying, "Qing Zhu, accompany me for a walk."

  Having finished speaking, he stood up and walked out.

  She's afraid that if she stays here any longer, she'll be driven mad by this man. How come she never noticed before that this man's mouth was so poisonous? Does this count as not knowing people well, and one misstep becoming an eternal regret?

  Xuanyuan Ye's eyes flickered slightly, originally wanting to stop her, but thinking of her strong personality, he was afraid that he might not be able to stop her, so it's better to just go along with her.

  But then, fearing Qing Zhu would let something slip, he secretly gave Qing Zhu a warning glance.

  Qing Zhu naturally understood Xuan Yuan's meaning, and nodded slightly before quickly following Meng Fu Ying out.

  Meng Fu Ying walked slowly in the courtyard, actually, she was angry with Xuan Yu Yan for one reason, and another reason was that she felt Xuan Yu Yan seemed to be hiding something from her, about why she fainted. Xuan Yu Yan seemed to have lied.

  So she deliberately brought out Qing Zhu, wanting to ask clearly, but also thought that if Xuan Yuan Ye was really deceiving her, would he also instruct Qing Zhu not to tell her.

  So she walked slowly while thinking about how to ask Qing Zhu this matter.

  "Actually, Your Highness is very concerned about Master. For the past two days and nights that Master has been unconscious, Your Highness..." Qing Zhu slowly followed behind Meng Cui Ying, seeing that she didn't respond, he carefully said, when there were no outsiders around, she still liked to call Meng Cui Ying "Master".

  Just then, Meng Fu Ying, who was walking ahead, suddenly stopped and quickly turned around, causing Qing Zhu to almost bump into her arms.

  "Master, why did you suddenly turn around?" Qing Zhu hurriedly steadied himself, looking at Meng Fu Ying with some confusion, thinking to himself if he had just said something wrong.

  "What did you just say, that I fainted for two days and two nights?" Meng Fu Ying's eyes stared straight at her, saying slowly word by word. Originally, she thought she had only slept for a day, didn't expect to have slept for two days and two nights, if there was nothing wrong, how could she sleep for so long.

  At this moment, she was even more certain that Xuan Yuan Ye had indeed lied about her being unconscious.

  "Yes, yes." Qing Zhu didn't think much of it and just nodded slightly after asking.

  "Qīng zhú, you honestly tell me, why did I suddenly faint? What's wrong with my body?" Meng Fu Ying's face sank slightly, and her eyes gazed at Qing Zhu with a few more degrees of severity. The low voice was filled with an irresistible majesty.

  Since Xuan Yuan Ye was going to great lengths to deceive her, the problem must be very serious. Although she also understood that everyone was deceiving her for her own good, as a party involved, she also had the right to know.

  "Qing Zhu really didn't know why Master had fainted, Qing Zhu arrived and Master was already unconscious. Moreover, the imperial physicians also said that Master was fine." Qing Zhu secretly felt a shock in her heart, but she still replied with a serious face, trying to keep her expression, voice, and tone as usual, not daring to reveal any unusualness.

  Because she was too clear about the master's observational power, as long as she had a little abnormality, the master would be able to discover it. Wang Ye also repeatedly warned her not to tell the master, and she didn't want the master to know that she was heartbroken.

  Fortunately, what she said was true and didn't contain any lies. She just intentionally left out the exaggerated parts.

  "Even you are deceiving me?" Meng Fuying naturally couldn't believe Qing Zhu's words so easily, although Qing Zhu didn't look like she was lying at the moment. However, she dared to be certain that things were absolutely not as simple as Qing Zhu said.

  After all, this is ancient times, without modern advanced equipment. For a modern doctor like her who relies on examination results from advanced equipment to perform surgery, coming to ancient times really gives one a sense of "a hero has no use for his skills".

  However, if she had contracted some kind of serious incurable disease, wouldn't she have been able to sense something was wrong?

  But she didn't have any unusual feeling before, did she?

  In his mind, a sudden flash, his body stiffened involuntarily, could it be...

  "Master, how dare I deceive you? What I said is the truth. Your body really has no problem. Now that you've woken up, everything is fine." Qing Zhuo thought to himself with a mix of surprise and trepidation, but had to continue speaking again.

  Meng Fu Ying saw Qing Zhu's attitude and knew that asking more questions would not yield any results, anyway it was not urgent, so she decided to wait and see later.

  As for Xuan Yuan Ye's side, she...

  Soft uterus.

  Feng Lingyun followed the little palace maid into the great hall, and when he saw Rong Fei sitting upright in the great hall, he was slightly taken aback, but he also understood the purpose of Rong Fei's summons today.

  Although he asked his eunuch to say that it was for the sake of Empress Yu's illness, however, at this moment, Empress Yu was sitting perfectly fine in the great hall, and things couldn't be clearer.

  "Lingyun greets Concubine Rou with a bow." Feng Lingyun took a deep breath, then slowly stepped forward and paid his respects.

  "It's all right, Doctor. No need for excessive courtesy." The gentle empress smiled faintly and slowly stood up, her voice as soft as usual, with a charming smile on her face.

  And her deliberate address made Feng Lingyun slightly stunned, although the emperor had indeed appointed him as the imperial physician, but last time because of Lan'er's matter, he had been relieved of all his duties, so at this moment, Rongfei's address was really making him secretly astonished.

  "Lingyun is now just a commoner, and being called that by the gentle princess makes Lingyun feel terrified." Feng Lingyun slightly lowered his eyelids, and his voice also became more subdued.

  "Hehe," Rong Fei suddenly chuckled softly, "I'm used to calling out like this, I forgot that you wouldn't be. You don't have to be so tense."

  Feng Lingyun secretly let out a breath of relief, thinking that usually, this gentle queen was indeed very simple-minded, or perhaps she had truly forgotten.

  "I don't know what's going on today, but Concubine Rou let me enter the palace. What's this all about?" Feng Lingyun asked directly, not wanting to continue being nervous and fearful.

  "There's nothing important, I just heard that you went to see the child's illness, and I'm also worried about the child's body, so I called you over to ask." Consort Rou asked directly.

  At this moment, her face is filled with obvious worry.

  Feng Lingyun was taken aback once again. To say that Consort Rou was concerned about the health of the princess and had specially called him over to ask, it was also understandable. After all, Consort Rou had always been extremely kind and considerate towards her subordinates, let alone her own daughter-in-law.

  However, Meng Fu Ying's infertility issue was something that Rong Fei absolutely could not know about, because Rong Fei was always eagerly waiting to hold her grandchild.

  "Go back, Princess. The queen's body is fine, maybe she just fainted from exhaustion recently. Lingyun has already prescribed some medicine for the princess, and I believe that after taking it, everything will be alright." Feng Lingyun's eyes sparkled slightly as he spoke slowly.

  "Really?" Roufei's eyes sparkled, her face filled with obvious doubt, and she muttered again, "Fainted for so long, really nothing wrong?"

  A pair of eyes stared straight at Feng Lingyun, seemingly wanting to ask him something, yet it seemed more like a monologue, but in reality, they were secretly observing Feng Lingyun's expression.

  "Really." Feng Lingyun was startled for a moment, but quickly covered up all his emotions and said affirmatively again.

  "Ah, your medical skills. I absolutely trust them, and the Emperor often praises you too. Yesterday, I heard that you went to treat the illness of the Wangfei, and also told me that it shouldn't be because of your sister's matter that you got implicated, from what the Emperor said, it seems like he wants to restore your official position." The gentle smile on Rongfei's lips spread once again as she spoke slowly, word by word.

  This remark seems to be nothing special at first glance, as if it's just praising Feng Lingyun. However, upon closer reflection, one can discover the profound meaning behind her words.

  Feng Lingyun was secretly shocked in her heart, seemingly not expecting that the normally gentle and simple Rong Fei would say something like this.

  Not bad, that imperial physician, to him, has a great temptation, before, can be said to be his struggling dream, however, after that incident, out of the palace, he instead felt more precious freedom.

  "The matter with your sister, I am also clear about it, and it has something to do with Ruo'er. You are able to put aside past grievances for the sake of treating Ruo'er's illness, which is truly commendable. I also appreciate this aspect of yours very much, so..." The words of Consort Rou trailed off intentionally, but the meaning behind them was already quite clear.

  Feng Lingyun's body stiffened slightly, and her eyes quickly hid something. "Right, I'm still not quite at ease about Rufang's illness. Originally, I wanted to wait until Hu Taigong recovered before going to take another look. Are you sure she's really okay?" Consort Rou looked at Feng Lingyun again, with a worried and urgent expression.

  In her eyes, however, there was a hint of complacency. She didn't believe that under such coercion and temptation, Feng Lingyun wouldn't reveal the truth...

  Feng Lingyun's face was slightly lowered, but the corners of her lips were subtly curled up into a faint, enigmatic smile.
