After arriving at the imperial study, Xu Yingying saluted the emperor respectfully. The emperor waved his hand and said while reviewing the memorial in his hand: "I have asked the Imperial Observatory to calculate the time for opening the coffin. Seven days later is a good day. I will send someone to pick you up then."

"Yes, I understand." Xu Yingying responded. She originally thought that the opening of the coffin would be postponed because of the prince's matter. Now it seems that the emperor does not seem to care that much about the prince.

Afterwards, Xu Yingying was personally escorted out of the palace by Su Shengyuan. The Imperial Concubine originally wanted to send someone to take Xu Yingying to the Eastern Palace again, but after seeing Su Shengyuan behind Xu Yingying, the Imperial Concubine had to give up the idea.

After returning to the prince's mansion, Li Siqi was still nowhere to be seen. This meant that it was not Li Siqi who did the emperor's request to go to the imperial study. So where did Li Siqi go?

Xu Yingying recalled that in the past few days, she seemed to have seldom seen Li Siqi. She didn't notice it before, but now she felt something was strange.

Xu Yingying couldn't figure it out herself, so she simply waved her hand and found a servant at random, "Do you know where your prince went?"

When the servant heard this, his eyes flickered, and then he shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.

But Xu Yingying saw the look in his eyes just now, "Do you really not know where your prince went?"

"My lord, please don't make things difficult for us. We, the servants, really don't know where our master has gone. Maybe Your Highness is busy with government affairs and is still handling matters now." After saying that, the servant turned around and left quickly, without giving Xu Yingying a chance to ask.

Xu Yingying seemed to be thinking about something. She guessed that Li Siqi must be hiding something from her, and the servants in the prince's mansion were very tight-lipped. It seemed that Li Siqi had specifically warned her about this and didn't want her to know. Thinking of this, Xu Yingying had to give up and not delve into the matter any further.

Soon, night fell, and Xu Yingying still didn't see Li Siqi. She didn't wait any longer and went to bed early after dinner.

Lying on the bed, Xu Yingying, who had just felt a little sleepy, now tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.

As the time was getting later, Xu Yingying hadn't suffered from insomnia for a long time, and her mood gradually became more and more irritable.

For ventilation, the windows of the room were not closed. Through the window, one could see the bright full moon outside. Today was the sixteenth, the day when the moon was the fullest. Xu Yingying missed her parents in modern times a little, but before she had time to feel sad, she faintly heard a man's groaning.

The voice seemed familiar. Xu Yingying sat up in disbelief. A man was actually screaming in pain at this hour. She subconsciously ran out to check. Following the direction of the voice, Xu Yingying came to a yard she had never noticed before.

The gate to the yard was locked, but the wall next to it was not high, so Xu Yingying climbed over the wall with great effort. After walking around the house, she saw a hot spring pool at the back. A man wearing only underwear was soaking in the pool. It was Li Siqi, whom Xu Yingying rarely saw.

But now Li Siqi's face was pale. Even though he was soaking in the hot spring pool, a layer of ice had formed on his eyebrows and eyelashes, and his whole body was trembling. These were signs of the cold poison, and Xu Yingying was particularly familiar with them.

Xu Yingying had never seen Li Siqi like this before, he looked fragile and lovable.

As a doctor, Xu Yingying couldn't bear to see Li Siqi endure it alone. At this time, Li Siqi was the most defenseless. Xu Yingying thought for a moment and then chopped Li Siqi on the back of his neck with a knife.

Looking at Li Siqi falling in her arms, Xu Yingying sighed softly and resigned herself to dragging him to the shore.

Although they were in the water, the difference in strength between the two was too great. By the time they got the man to the shore, Xu Yingying was already out of breath.

After calming down for a moment, Xu Yingying knelt beside Li Siqi, thinking about what Li Yiping had taught her before.

Following the memory, Xu Yingying's hands began to flow over Li Siqi's body. Fortunately, Xu Yingying had practiced internal strength with Li Siqi for a few days, so she was now able to use it with ease.

Although Xu Yingying knew how to relieve the cold poison from the beginning, she had to delay it because she had never mastered martial arts. Now it seems that Li Siqi got the advantage.

Xu Yingying moved very quickly. Perhaps the cold poison was too much torment to Li Siqi, or perhaps Xu Yingying was too strong just now, so that after the treatment was over, Li Siqi still did not wake up.

Looking at Li Siqi's face, who was not sure whether he was unconscious or sleeping, Xu Yingying couldn't help but sigh that as a prince, he was really handsome. Even in his current coma, it did not affect Li Siqi's handsome appearance at all, and even made him look more handsome.

Xu Yingying smacked her lips, stood up, and patted her clothes, intending to leave quickly while Li Siqi was still unconscious and then hide her achievements and fame.

But an accident happened. When Xu Yingying just stood up and was about to leave, the corner of her clothes was grabbed by someone. Xu Yingying froze in place and turned her head little by little. Li Siqi's eyes were still closed, but the corner of Xu Yingying's clothes was already grasped in his hand.

Xu Yingying tried to pull it away, but Li Siqi was very strong. Seeing that she couldn't pull it free, Xu Yingying gritted her teeth and decided to cut off her tail to save herself.

But just when she squatted down and wanted to tear the corner of her clothes off, Li Siqi directly pulled her to the ground and turned over. Xu Yingying was completely pinned under Li Siqi, unable to move.

Xu Yingying had no time to react. She felt dizzy and found herself lying on the ground.

Xu Yingying nearly bit her white teeth to pieces. She then tried desperately to push Li Siqi away, but Li Siqi was too heavy. Under the huge disparity between the man and the woman, Xu Yingying couldn't move at all and instead exhausted herself.

Since she couldn't move away, Xu Yingying thought about struggling to see if she could escape from Li Siqi, but it was still in vain. Xu Yingying was speechless.

Seeing that whatever she did was in vain, Xu Yingying simply gave in. She accepted being suppressed. Anyway, she would be able to leave when Li Siqi woke up. As long as she was not embarrassed, the only one who would be embarrassed would be Li Siqi.

Thinking of this, Xu Yingying closed her eyes with peace of mind. Perhaps she was too tired, and she fell asleep soon. However, after a night, the first person to wake up was not Li Siqi, nor Xu Yingying, but Li Siqi's guard.

Li Siqi would suffer from a cold attack at this time every month, so this courtyard was specially built for Li Siqi's exclusive use.
