Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

In the bathtub, water splashed in all directions.

No one knew what happened inside, but half an hour later, Shen Wanying came out first.

Her face was red as she shouted outside the yard, "Xiaoqing, go get some clean water right away."

Although Xiaoqing, the personal maid, looked confused, she still did as she was told.

"General Zhao!"

"The general is here!"

"Please ask the imperial physician to come and take another look at His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu."

After saying this, Shen Wanying left quickly.

She wants to brush her teeth!

Thinking of what had just happened in the bathtub, Shen Wanying blushed with embarrassment.

He had originally been prepared to sacrifice himself, but he didn't expect Chu Ning to have so many tricks up his sleeve and come up with this method to help him solve the problem.

I have to rinse my mouth now!

Thinking of this, Shen Wanying bit her lip lightly, trying hard to drive the scene from her mind.

Just when Shen Wanying was feeling shy, the imperial physician came into the bathing pool again under the guidance of Zhao Yu.

But this time, Chu Ning's situation was completely different from before.

Chu Ning, whose eyes were originally red, returned to normal. He changed into a new set of clothes, and his bulging veins were all restored. He looked energetic and did not look like he had been drugged at all.

"This……"

The imperial physician was stunned and couldn't believe his eyes.

He wiped his eyes carefully and looked at Chu Ning again, and found that Chu Ning indeed looked fine.

The imperial physician asked cautiously and tentatively, "Your Highness, has the drug worn off?"

Chu Ning laughed: "This matter still needs the imperial physician's review."

After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and handed over his wrist.

The imperial physician stepped forward and stretched out his right hand to feel the pulse.

After a moment, the imperial physician frowned, retracted his hand, and a look of doubt appeared on his face.

"Strange, really strange!"

The imperial physician placed his hand on Chu Ning's wrist again and took Chu Ning's pulse once again.

This time, the pulse diagnosis took longer than last time, which made Zhao Yu very anxious.

"Imperial Physician, what happened to His Highness? Please speak!"

Zhao Yu, who was usually calm, was made anxious by the imperial physician's actions.

Not to mention that there are so many soldiers on the front line waiting for Your Highness to support them. Just because of Your Highness's kindness to me, I must ensure Your Highness's safety!

The imperial physician was brought back to his senses by Zhao Yu's words, and said with surprise, "Congratulations, Your Highness! Congratulations, Your Highness!"

happiness?

Chu Ning's mouth twitched.

I am not a woman, so where does the joy come from?

Chu Ning retracted his right hand and shook his head, saying, "What does the imperial physician mean by this? If it is just that the drug in my body has been cleared, then this is not a happy event."

The imperial physician was delighted: "Your Highness has misunderstood. This is a blessing in disguise for you. The drug is too powerful and has caused your tendons to swell.

But you have great willpower and have persisted for a long time, which has expanded your tendons and veins. Your future cultivation will surely be twice as effective with half the effort."

Chu Ning was stunned.

Can you do this?

It is true that I have never been able to practice this martial art well. More than half a year has passed, and my internal strength has not improved at all. I have only practiced that one spear technique.

However, no matter how powerful a move is, it will be useless without the support of internal strength.

Could it be that the reason I have not been able to cultivate internal strength is because of problems with my tendons and veins?

Thinking of this, Chu Ning turned to look at Zhao Yu and asked, "General Zhao, does the expansion of the tendons and veins help with cultivation?"

At this moment, Zhao Yu said excitedly: "This is natural. If the tendons and veins are naturally narrow, it is much more difficult to cultivate internal strength than ordinary people.

Moreover, even if one cultivates internal strength, the strength that can be exerted is limited due to the narrow tendons and veins.

But once the tendons and meridians are expanded, all of this will not be a problem. Your Highness will surely be able to improve his cultivation skills in the future!"

As a person with outstanding martial arts skills, Zhao Yu's words are the most convincing.

Chu Ning's eyes lit up and a hint of excitement flashed across their faces.

My low strength has always been a problem. Although I have Zhao Yu as my guard, I always lack a sense of security.

It is better to develop your own skills than to rely on others for protection.

Even if you don't have to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy yourself, you won't be left helpless when you encounter danger.

"If that's the case, then I'll have to give it a try!"

Chu Ning narrowed his eyes and laughed loudly, "Thank you very much, imperial physician, for today. General Zhao, go get some silver for the imperial physician and send him off for me."

"Yes!" Zhao Yu responded and gestured to the imperial physician.

The imperial physician bowed to Chu Ning and then turned and left.

Chu Ning was the only one left in the bath. He couldn't wait to sit cross-legged and start practicing according to the exercise route Zhao Yu taught him.

In the past, it would take a quarter of an hour to enter a state of meditation.

But this time, Chu Ning closed his eyes, only a thought flashed through his mind, and his body instantly entered a state of meditation and ecstasy.

Soon, Chu Ning felt a warm current flowing through the tendons and veins in his body, and as his practice deepened, the warm current continued to grow stronger.

This practice lasted for half an hour, and the sky had already covered the entire Kyoto city.

Outside the yard, the maid Xiaoqing was holding a lantern, while Shen Wanying, who had regained her former spirit, was staring at the bathroom door.

Although she knew that Chu Ning was practicing in there, she was still a little worried because he hadn't come out for so long.

After all, Princess Gaoping's drug was too powerful, and it was unknown whether Chu Ning had completely released the drug. What if there was still some residual drug power in his body...

Just as Shen Wanying was lost in thought, she suddenly heard a long howl coming from the bathroom.

Then, a loud laugh was heard, shaking the sky and filled with joy.

Shen Wanying's frown gradually relaxed.

She knew that if Chu Ning smiled, everything would be fine.

At this time, the bathroom door opened and Chu Ning came out with a high-spirited look on his face.

Seeing Shen Wanying still there, Chu Ning couldn't help but step forward and hold her hand, saying with a smile: "I'm sorry for making you worry."

Shen Wanying shook her head: "I heard about your situation from General Zhao. Looking at your current state, could it be that you can really practice?"

Chu Ning chuckled: "I'll give it to you to try! Come on, bring me my gun!"

Zhao Yu personally handed over Chu Ning's spear.

Chu Ning took the spear and took a deep breath. He poured the little strength in his body into his arm, and then the spear came out like a dragon, unstoppable, and stabbed fiercely at the stone table in the yard.

"Qiang!"

With a loud clang, the spear actually pierced through the heavy stone table.

Such a powerful force couldn't help but make Shen Wanying a little surprised.

However, she didn't know that this was Chu Ning's full-strength attack, using all his strength!

Seeing Shen Wanying's surprise, Chu Ning chuckled: "This king has turned a disaster into a blessing. Now my cultivation power is more than ten times faster than before!"

Shen Wanying came back to her senses, and a look of relief appeared on her gentle face: "Fortunately you survived this time, otherwise you would have fallen into Princess Gaoping's trap."

When Princess Gaoping was mentioned, the smile on Chu Ning's face disappeared.

After being tricked by this woman, I certainly can't just let it go!

"Hmph, Princess Gaoping, I will definitely settle this account with you!"

I have always been the one taking advantage of others. When will it be others' turn to take advantage of me?

If it weren't for the fact that my willpower and mental strength are twice that of an ordinary person, I would definitely be doomed this time.

Princess Gaoping, just wait, I will give you a surprise at the wedding in three days!

Chu Ning was determined not to let Princess Gaoping go.
