Su Yuejian was sitting beside the bed, holding a bowl of medicine.

Xuan Yu and Xuan Feng stood on her left and right, looking at her with sincere pleading eyes.

She turned her head slightly and took another look at Xiao Heng, who was lying weak on the bed, feeling extremely conflicted.

No matter what, Xiao Heng was seriously injured just to save himself.

Forget it, Xiao Hei's poison is extremely strong. If I don't detoxify it, it may be too late.

She bit her lip lightly, strengthened her mind, took a sip of the medicine, leaned forward slightly, and slowly touched the man's cold yet soft lips.

Seeing this, Xuan Yu immediately turned his back, and when he turned his head, his eyes caught sight of Xuan Feng standing beside him.

He walked up to Xuanfeng and turned his head to the other side.

Wooden idiot!

Don’t you know that you should not look at what is inappropriate?

Xiao Heng's consciousness was blurred at this time, his whole body felt like it was in ice, and he was enveloped by a bone-chilling pain.

Suddenly, a faint scent of jasmine came from the tip of his nose, and then he felt the warmth and softness on his lips.

Driven by instinct, he opened his lips slightly and swallowed the medicine bit by bit.

Seeing that this method was indeed effective, Su Yue curled up the corners of her mouth slightly and continued to feed him the medicine.

Xiao Heng was in a daze, and seemed to have sensed something strange. He suddenly bit the soft petal. As the strong smell of blood came into his mouth, the warmth disappeared instantly.

Su Yuejian felt the pain on her lips, and suddenly stood up. She raised her hand and touched her lips, and found that they were indeed bitten.

This person is born in the year of the dog!

Even when he was unconscious, he was still biting people like crazy!

She glared fiercely at Xiao Heng lying on the bed, then looked down at the empty soup bowl in her hand. She felt a little comforted, fortunately she had taken the medicine.

After waiting for another quarter of an hour, Su Yuejian took his pulse again, her fingers gently resting on Xiao Heng's wrist.

Xuan Yu and Xuan Feng stared closely at Su Yuejian, who had a serious expression on his face.

Xuan Feng said, "Princess..."

Xuan Yu immediately covered his mouth and signaled with his eyes not to disturb Su Yuejian.

Su Yuejian finally breathed a sigh of relief after carefully confirming that Xiao Heng was out of danger.

His brows gradually relaxed, and he smiled, "It's okay. This can be considered a blessing in disguise. Most of the poison in his body has been removed."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yu and Xuan Feng also breathed a sigh of relief, and excitement and joy appeared on their faces.

Xuan Yu was about to express his gratitude when Su Yue spoke in confusion.

"But there is something very strange. There is a deep-seated evil poison in the prince's body. The reason he went crazy and killed people just now was because of this poison."

Xuan Yu frowned slightly, recalled for a moment, and said slowly,

"As far as I know, the prince suffered from a violent disease since childhood. When it attacks, he will fall into madness and only care about killing people. Because of this strange disease, the prince has always disliked socializing."

"Is there such a thing?"

Su Yuejian was extremely surprised.

Xuan Yu continued, "The prince's illness is kept strictly confidential except for those in the palace."

Su Yuejian nodded in thought.

There are many secrets in the palace, especially such major events involving the royal family. No wonder people outside say that he is cold-hearted and cold-hearted. It turns out that it is because of this disease.

Xuan Feng continued,

"But the disease hasn't recurred since the prince turned fourteen. Later, when he met Doctor Qi at the border, he asked him to diagnose the prince, and he confirmed that the prince is indeed in good health."

Su Yuejian became even more confused and lowered her head slightly, thinking about Xiao Heng's condition.

Although she didn't know why Xiao Heng hadn't fallen ill before.

But what she could be sure of was that from the pulse diagnosis just now, the evil poison had not disappeared and had always existed in his body.

Su Yuejian looked at Xiao Heng and wondered when he would wake up. In addition, he had so many injuries on his body that it would take him several days to recuperate after he woke up.

She frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then drew a safer route up and down the mountain for Xuanfeng and Xuanyu.

He called Qingshan and Xuanshuang in and said softly, "After daybreak, you should go back with the injured Shadow Guard and Xuanfeng and Xuanyu to recuperate."

When Qingshan heard this, he hurriedly said, "Princess, I will not leave."

He was worried in his heart, what if the people from the Wandu Sect came again? He had to stay by the princess' side.

With Qingshan's protection, Xuanshuang's injuries were not serious, and Su Yuejian's medicine was very effective, so she didn't take this minor injury seriously at all.

She followed up, "I'm not leaving either."

Seeing how determined they were, Su Yue thought for a while and said,

"Qingshan can stay, but I ran away secretly. If my grandfather and the others found out that I wasn't at home, they would definitely be worried, so..."

She looked at Xuan Shuang and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Xuan Shuang, in disguising yourself as me and staying at the Duke's Mansion for a few days."

Xuanshuang had demonstrated the art of disguise to Yuzhu before, and Su Yuejian was very confident in her abilities.

Xuan Yu said: "I will take the injured brothers down the mountain, and let Xuan Feng take the rest of the people to stay and protect the princess and the prince."

Xuanfeng nodded at Su Yuejian.

Su Yue saw it and said, "Let's do it this way."

Seeing Su Yuejian's insistence, Xuanshuang also compromised and agreed.

Everyone dispersed as ordered, leaving Su Yuejian alone in the house to look after Xiao Heng.

Prince Gong's Mansion

Ye Zong returned with three secret guards to report.

His face was pale, and his body was still covered with bloodstains from the battle. He knelt on one knee, lowered his head, and said,

"Your Majesty, I am incompetent. I failed to capture the Gu King, and all the people from the Ten Thousand Poison Sect...were killed."

He told Xiao Chengchang what he had seen on Chaowu Mountain.

After hearing Ye Zong say that the giant python appeared at last, they rushed down the mountain, not knowing what happened next.

Xiao Chengchang asked anxiously,

"Where's Su Yuejian?! Is she still alive?"

Ye Zong shook his head slightly, feeling a little uneasy.

"I don't know..."

Xiao Chengchang stood up angrily and kicked Ye Zong away with a fierce kick.

Ye Ying knelt on the ground, secretly startled, and said quickly,

"Your Highness, calm down. Chaowu Mountain is extremely dangerous. No one has ever returned since they left. It's rare that only three people returned out of over a hundred who went there."

"Since Princess Minghua was able to ascend Poison Mountain at night, I suspect she must have found a way to leave."

When Ye Zong heard this, he secretly criticized Ye Ying in his heart.

Easier said than done!

Have you not seen how powerful those poisonous insects and snakes are? !

There is still a way to leave!

He had never seen such a big and ferocious python!

I guess he's dead, how can he leave?!

Although he thought so in his heart, but he was afraid of Xiao Chengchang, Ye Zong still followed Ye Ying's words.

"What Yeying said makes sense. Why don't you wait until daytime and send someone to the Duke of Huguo's mansion to inquire whether the princess has returned home?"

After listening to the two people's words, Xiao Chengchang calmed down a little, but he was still restless in his heart.

Su Yue saw that this chess piece was too important and nothing could happen to it!

His eyes were cold and he said impatiently, "I understand. You guys go down first!"

Ye Zong said, "Your Highness, what about the Ten Thousand Poison Sect..."

Xiao Chengchang glanced coldly, thinking about Wanbao Pavilion's actions in his heart.

"Didn't you say that the group of people who came later looked like people from Wanbao Pavilion? That means they have nothing to do with Princess Minghua."

Ye Zong obeyed the order, "Yes, I understand."

Although Xiao Chengchang didn't know why the people from Wanbao Pavilion helped Su Yuejian, he had already investigated Wanbao Pavilion and found that Su Yuejian and Wanbao Pavilion had no intersection.

He frowned.

I wondered why the people from Wanbao Pavilion went to find Su Yuejian?

Could it be that the people in Wanbao Pavilion also found out that the golden silkworm was the Gu King?
