Regent, the princess you found is a treasure

"You must soak it for more than three hours." Su Luoxue said to Xuan Moyin in the bucket.

(Note: One hour in ancient times is equal to 2 hours now)

"Yeah." Xuan Moyin replied in a low voice.

Su Luoxue walked out of the bathroom, sat at the place where she had just received acupuncture, wiped each of the silver needles clean with a silk handkerchief, and put them away.

Then she walked out of the house, and Uncle Fu, who had been waiting outside, stepped forward and bowed to her, saying, "Miss Su, a guest room has been prepared for you to rest. I have already sent someone to greet the Prime Minister's Mansion."

"Okay, Uncle Fu, please lead the way." Su Luoxue said.

This is another courtyard, separated only by a wall from Xuan Moyin's Zhong Yunxuan. The two courtyards are connected by an arched door, so they can be connected or independent.

Uncle Fu took Su Luoxue to the yard and then retreated. Meixiang, who had been waiting for Su Luoxue in the yard, saw the young lady coming and hurried to greet her and took the medicine box from the young lady's hand.

"Miss, you must be tired. Shall we rest here tonight?"

"Yeah," Su Luoxue responded as she and Meixiang walked into the house.

This is an extremely spacious two-room suite, with a living room, a bedroom, and an adjacent bathroom arranged from the outside to the inside. Compared to the five rooms she lived in in Bamboo Garden, this place is simply a luxurious palace.

Obviously, someone had carefully cleaned the place and added many women's products - there was no doubt that these were arranged by Xuan Moyin. When Su Luoxue thought of that man, his sturdy and strong figure and well-defined eight-pack abs appeared in her mind, and her cheeks instantly flushed with shyness.

Meixiang, who was standing by, noticed the sudden change in her young lady's complexion and was startled. She quickly reached out to touch Su Luoxue's forehead and asked with concern, "Young lady, why did your face suddenly turn so red? Are you feeling unwell?"

"Uh... nothing." Su Luoxue seemed to be guilty and tried to change the subject quickly, "Meixiang, I'm a little hungry, is there anything I can eat?"

"Yes, miss. The servants sent by the prince brought many exquisite snacks! And not long after you came back, they also brought hot lotus seed soup. Miss, do you want to try some?" Meixiang replied hurriedly.

"Okay." Su Luoxue nodded.

On the other side, in the huge medicine barrel, Xuan Moyin was immersed in it, quietly soaking as if forgotten by time. However, the pain he was enduring at this moment was unimaginable to ordinary people - the excruciating pain like a thousand insects devouring his body was ruthlessly corroding his body.

At first, the pain was still within the tolerable range, and because Su Luoxue was right beside him, Xuan Moyin was able to control himself and not let his face show any trace of pain. But as time went on, the pain became more and more intense, he clenched his teeth tightly, frowned, and beads of sweat as big as sea pearls on his forehead kept rolling down and falling into the bathtub, splashing circles of tiny ripples.

At the same time, Xuan Moyin also noticed changes in himself: his skin began to ooze out black blood drops into the water bit by bit, accompanied by waves of disgusting stench. Perhaps this was the "detoxification" process that Su Luoxue mentioned.

Every drop of black blood that spilled meant that the toxins in the body were gradually being expelled; and the bone-eating and heart-searing pain was the ordeal that had to be experienced in this transformation. Xuan Moyin knew that if he wanted to gain more powerful strength, he had to pay a price.

These three hours were as long and painful as if Xuan Moyin had been tormented in hell for a whole lifetime. Finally, when a glimmer of dawn appeared in the eastern sky, An Yi appeared silently beside the bathtub.

"Your Highness, please let me help you out." An Yi knelt on one knee and said softly.

Xuan Moyin stood up from the tub with difficulty. The originally clear and transparent medicine had now turned dark and emitted a disgusting stench. He frowned and endured the discomfort as he washed his body twice more. Only after the unpleasant smell gradually dissipated did he change into clean clothes.

After getting dressed, Xuan Moyin hurriedly sat down beside the bed, closed his eyes, and began to try to practice Qigong and regulate his breathing. Ever since he was poisoned, every time he tried to use Qigong to open up his meridians, he would immediately feel an unbearable pain like a knife twisting his heart, but this time it was completely different - he was pleasantly surprised to find that his meridians had become unobstructed, and the whole person felt much more relaxed!

While secretly rejoicing in his heart, Xuan Moyin tried to calm his restless mind and gradually evened out his breath. At this moment, he felt relaxed and refreshed, as if all the heavy burdens he was carrying had disappeared in an instant.

When An Yi saw this, he was happy for the prince. As long as Miss Su could cure his prince, then Miss Su would be his second master. He would obey her orders and protect her.

Xuan Moyin rested for a while, ate a little, and went to the morning court. Although he was exhausted from the medicinal bath last night, he couldn't rest today. He didn't want that person to notice anything.

At this time, Su Luoxue was dreaming sweetly on the bed until Meixiang called her.

"Miss, Miss, don't sleep anymore. We should go back home. It's getting late."

Su Luoxue stretched comfortably and asked with hazy eyes: "What time is it now?"

"Miss, it's almost time." Meixiang said.

Su Luoxue stood up and let Meixiang help her dress.

Just as she was about to take Meixiang away from the Regent's Palace, she just opened the door and saw Uncle Fu waiting outside.

Seeing Su Luoxue open the door, Uncle Fu gave an order and a group of servants came in one after another, each carrying a piece of food, and soon the table was full.

Meixiang quietly asked Su Luoxue: "Miss, have you noticed that we haven't seen a single maid since we entered the palace yesterday?"

Fu Bo's ears moved, and when he heard Mei Xiang's words, he smiled and said, "Miss Su, Miss Mei Xiang, we don't have a maid or a nanny in the Regent's Mansion."

"Why?" Meixiang couldn't help but be curious.

"Our prince said that there cannot be a woman in the mansion before there is a princess consort." Uncle Fu replied.

"Miss Su, please have breakfast. These are prepared for you by the prince before he went to the morning court." Uncle Fu continued.

Meixiang waited for Su Luoxue to sit down. He actually insisted on going to the morning court today? Su Luoxue thought to herself.

She slowly drank a bowl of steaming, fragrant vegetable and meat porridge, feeling the warm liquid sliding down her throat into her stomach, bringing a sense of satisfaction. Then, she tasted a delicious and juicy meat bun, with rich meat filling and soft dough, which made people linger. Then she had a few crystal clear, small and exquisite steamed shrimp dumplings, the shrimp meat was tender and chewy, and the special fillings made the taste even better. Finally, she also enjoyed two pieces of sweet and delicious osmanthus cakes, the fragrance of osmanthus and the softness of the cakes perfectly blended, making her intoxicated.

The chefs in the Prince Regent's Palace are so skilled! Every dessert is so exquisite and delicious, like a work of art. She couldn't help but sigh, if her stomach wasn't about to burst, she would have wanted to eat a little more.
