The queen is so good at teasing that she makes the abstinent prince tremble

Inside the small bamboo house, the candlelight flickered and the atmosphere was solemn.

Xiao Yuchen sat on the edge of the bed, holding Jiang Tangxi's hand tightly, his eyes full of anxiety and self-blame.

All the wounds on Jiang Tangxi's body have been bandaged, and the wound on his arm has also been applied with medicine.

But Jiang Tangxi still showed no intention of waking up.

Xiao Yuchen became more and more anxious!

"No! I must find a way to save her as soon as possible!" Xiao Yuchen said in his heart, his eyes fell on the phantom jade on his chest.

He hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to take the risk.

He gently unbuttoned his clothes and took out the phantom jade that was emitting a faint green light, preparing to guide its power into Jiang Tangxi's body.

However, the moment he took out the phantom jade, something strange happened!

The originally calm phantom jade suddenly burst out with a dazzling light green light. The light seemed to have life. It surrounded Jiang Tangxi and slowly penetrated into her skin.

While Xiao Yuchen was astonished, he also felt a warm and powerful vitality surging in Jiang Tangxi's body.

"This...what's going on?" he muttered to himself, his eyes full of disbelief.

Under the illumination of the light green glow, the wounds on Jiang Tangxi's body began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even her pale face gradually regained its color.

"Phantom Jade... is it healing itself?" Xiao Yuchen was shocked. He had never seen such a magical sight before.

In an instant, Xiao Yuchen's eyes darkened!

This piece of "Life Green Jadeite" seems to have some special connection with Jiang Tangxi.

Or maybe, some opportunity made it choose to automatically protect its master at the critical moment and use its powerful vitality to save her life.

But I have been carrying this phantom jade with me for so long, and nothing like this has ever happened!

Is it possible...

As the light gradually faded, Jiang Tangxi's breathing became more and more steady.

.....

Jiang Tangxi slowly opened her eyes, and what came into view was an elegant and warm scene.

The window frames of the cabin are entwined with tiny vines. The sunlight shines through the gaps, casting mottled shadows and adding a bit of vitality to this quiet space.

She was stunned for a moment, and memories came flooding back like a tide, the icy waterfall, and the desperate fight!

She sat up suddenly, but was panting slightly due to exhaustion, and her head still ached slightly.

She lowered her head and touched her back and arms!

What about the injury?

Why is it gone? !

"Are you awake?" A gentle but slightly anxious voice sounded in her ears, interrupting her thoughts.

Xiao Yuchen had been standing beside the bed without him noticing, his eyes filled with a complex mixture of worry and joy.

He was almost impatient to make sure she was okay, but he didn't dare to touch her easily, for fear of disturbing her fragility.

Jiang Tangxi looked at him coldly, her eyes that were usually bright and clear now looked like a deep pool.

She didn't say anything, but just looked at the man in front of her with a grim, almost scrutinizing gaze.

Xiao Yuchen's heart tightened when he saw her look like this, "Xiaoxiao, how do you feel? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere? Do you want some water? Or something to eat?"

He blurted out a series of questions, his tone full of concern and anxiety.

Jiang Tangxi sneered, his voice hoarse and indifferent: "Xiao Yuchen, do you think that the first thing I want to do when I wake up is to hear you say this?"

Xiao Yuchen's face turned pale. He didn't expect that Jiang Tangxi's first words after waking up would be so sharp.

"Xiaoxiao, I know I lied to you. I will tell you everything! Now, the most important thing is your health. Eat something first, okay?"

Jiang Tangxi looked at him, with a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

Indeed, she hadn't had a meal since she woke up in the morning.

It’s better not to mention it!

As soon as I mentioned it, my stomach started growling!

Xiao Yuchen also heard the cry and chuckled!

Jiang Tangxi finally nodded, agreeing to his proposal.

Seeing this, Xiao Yuchen breathed a sigh of relief and quickly turned around and ordered: "Yinzhou, Yuzhu, quickly bring up the prepared food."

Soon, two people came in with a tray on which were placed several exquisite dishes, a pot of fine wine, and two empty glasses.

"Xiaoxiao, these are all prepared according to your taste, please try them."

As Xiao Yuchen spoke, he wanted to serve her the food, but Jiang Tangxi coldly refused: "No need, I can do it myself."

She took the chopsticks, her movements slow and mechanical, as if even something as trivial as eating made her exhausted.

"So...what about wine? Do you want to drink some? Maybe it can warm you up."

Xiao Yuchen asked tentatively. He remembered that Jiang Tangxi used to like to have a few drinks, especially this pot of fine wine that he specially selected.

Jiang Tangxi raised her head, staring at him with a sharp gaze, a mocking smile on her lips: "Wine? I look like this now, do you want me to die?"

There is sting in her words!

She was just injured, and this bastard let her drink?

There is a bar on the brain!

Xiao Yuchen's hands trembled slightly. When the two of them had a fight before, didn't she say "Wine is a good medicine?"

Xiao Yuchen chuckled, poured himself a glass of wine, and responded very gently: "姌姌, I..."

Xiao Yuchen's hand was suspended in the air, and the moment it was about to touch his mouth was interrupted by a sudden heavy memory.

He took a deep breath, and his eyes became deep and complex, as if he had returned to that unforgettable night.

"姌姌, there's something I haven't told you." His voice was low and heavy, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from the bottom of his heart.

Jiang Tangxi's hand holding the chopsticks also stopped in mid-air. She looked at Xiao Yuchen, and a hint of imperceptible tenderness and curiosity gradually emerged in her originally cold eyes.

"explain?"

Xiao Yuchen slowly put down the wine glass and turned to face the window, as if he was sorting out his thoughts, or as if he was avoiding the scar that was about to be revealed.

"A few days ago, I was not only injured in the Forbidden Mountain, but I also accidentally obtained this 'Life Green Jade'. I pursued it not only because it can enhance my cultivation, but also because I want to... revive my mother."

When he said this, there was a hint of bitterness and helplessness in his tone.

"My mother was once the most noble woman in the world, the former queen. Not only was she beautiful, she also had a compassionate heart and was deeply loved by my father. However, this love eventually became the source of her tragedy."

Jiang Tangxi listened quietly, with a look of heartache and understanding in her eyes.

She had never seen Xiao Yuchen talk about his past so frankly. Every word was like a heavy hammer, striking her heart.

"Our country's military strength has never been as strong as Guquan's. I think you also know that every year we pay Guquan a large sum of money just in exchange for year after year of stability!"

Jiang Tangxi nodded: "And then?"
