The group's favorite, the blind princess is both a doctor and a poisoner

next day

Xiao Chengchang ordered his servants to deliver a visiting card to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion early in the morning, and couldn't wait to visit in person.

When Lu Zhenting received the visiting card, he couldn't help but feel confused.

Their Lu family has never had any dealings with the princes. Why did Xiao Chengchang suddenly come to visit today?

With doubt in his heart, he walked steadily to the front hall to greet them.

When Xiao Chengchang saw Lu Zhenting, a gentle and polite smile immediately appeared on his face, and he reached out and gently helped Lu Zhenting up.

"Your Excellency, the Duke is so polite. Please stand up quickly. I hope you will not be offended by my sudden visit."

Lu Zhenting has always disliked these twists and turns, and he doesn't often exchange pleasantries with Xiao Chengchang.

After asking him to sit down, he asked with a hint of inquiry in his eyes,

"I wonder what brings His Royal Highness Prince Gong to visit us so suddenly?"

Xiao Chengchang said gently,

"Tomorrow is Princess Jiaping's birthday. I met the Imperial Aunt yesterday. She said she admired Princess Minghua's talent very much. She heard that the princess had been declining invitations, so she asked me to personally deliver the invitation to her. I beg you to attend."

Lu Zhenting nodded slightly.

Xiao Chengchang took the visiting card from Ye Ying, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

"I wonder if Princess Minghua is here, so I can personally hand the visiting card to her."

Lu Zhenting looked calm.

"It's unfortunate that Xiaoyue is ill and is resting in her room. I will take this note and pass it on to her."

When Xiao Chengchang heard that Su Yuejian had returned home, his eyes widened in surprise, and an indescribable joy surged in his heart.

"Are you feeling unwell? Where are you hurt? Is it serious?"

Looking at his surprised eyes and his impatient tone, Lu Zhenting couldn't help but frown, feeling very unhappy.

Why does Prince Gong look so happy when his daughter Xiaoyue is sick?

Is he cursing their Xiaoyue? !

"It's just a cold. I'll be fine after a few days of rest."

Xiao Chengchang was anxious and wanted to personally confirm whether Su Yuejian had really returned.

Then he said, "In that case, I will go and visit him personally."

Lu Zhenting felt even more unhappy and his expression darkened.

He said this with no regard for his daughter Xiaoyue'er's reputation!

He refused sternly, "I'm afraid this is inappropriate. Your Majesty is not allowed to enter a woman's boudoir."

Looking at Lu Zhenting's serious expression, Xiao Chengchang's face froze, and he felt a little annoyed at his own recklessness.

But he quickly adjusted himself, "It was my fault for being inconsiderate and rude. Please, Duke, pass on the invitation."

"Your Majesty, you're welcome."

Lu Zhenting took the post and said nothing more.

Looking at Lu Zhenting's cold face, Xiao Chengchang felt a little embarrassed.

He quietly observed Lu Zhenting. If something really happened to Su Yuejian, he would not be able to sit here so calmly. Most of the doubts in his heart were gone.

Then he stood up and said goodbye and left.

Back in the carriage, Ye Zong came to report.

"Your Highness, I have sent people to investigate. The princess is indeed at the Duke's residence, ill in bed with a cold. Many servants have seen her, and I have not heard of any other injuries."

Ye Zong was also very shocked when he heard the news. He didn't expect that Su Yuejian could really come back alive.

After hearing Ye Zong's confirmation, Xiao Chengchang was surprised for a few seconds, then frowned.

Although Chaowu Mountain is so dangerous, Su Yuejian returned unscathed.

Why did she go to Chaowu Mountain in the middle of the night last night?

What is the relationship between her and the people from Wanbao Pavilion? According to Ye Zong's description, the leader of Wanbao Pavilion seemed to be very close to her last night.

Questions that he couldn't figure out came one after another. Xiao Chengchang felt that Su Yuejian was full of mysteries, and his interest in her grew stronger.

No matter how many secrets she has, now that Su Yuejian Anran has returned, he is determined to get her!

Xiao Chengchang took a deep look at the Duke of Huguo's Mansion, then curled up the corners of his lips into an evil smile.

"Go home."

Yeying drove the carriage away slowly.

Chaowu Mountain

After sending the people down the mountain that day, Xuan Yu was always worried about the safety of the prince, so he hurriedly took some food and supplies and rushed back to Meiju.

With Su Yuejian's route map and her specially made medicine sachets and powder, it was much easier for them to enter and exit the Poison Mountain.

On the third night, Xiao Heng opened his eyes slightly, and he felt lighter than ever before. Even the heart-wrenching pain in his chest had mostly disappeared.

He looked at the light purple gauze in front of him and smelled the faint scent of jasmine. He recalled that he suddenly lost consciousness and a trace of doubt arose in his heart.

Just as I was about to sit up, I suddenly felt something soft on the back of my hand.

He lowered his head and saw Su Yuejian sleeping on the side of the bed. Her fair little face was peaceful, her long eyelashes were quietly closed, and her black hair hung down on her body. She was as well-behaved as a kitten, and his heart softened when he saw her.

There was a hint of tenderness in his dark eyes, and he raised his hand to help her tidy up the loose hair on her cheek.

Just a slight movement was noticed by the little person beside the bed. Su Yuejian rubbed his sleepy eyes, with a look of confusion in his eyes.

The two looked at each other, and Su Yuejian suddenly stood up and said in surprise, "My Lord, you're awake!"

Hearing Su Yuejian's voice, Xuan Yu and Xuan Feng immediately rushed in excitedly.

Seeing Xiao Heng wake up, the two of them walked forward happily.

Xuan Yu's eyes were filled with tears, "My Lord, you are finally awake!"

Su Yue was a little surprised to see Xuan Yu wiping away tears with such sincerity.

After all, when she wanted him and Xuan Feng to take care of Xiao Heng and feed him medicine and food these days, Xuan Yu found all kinds of reasons to refuse them.

Su Yuejian took Xiao Heng's pulse again and a relieved smile appeared on her face.

"Your Highness has found a blessing in disguise. Most of the poison in his body has been removed. As long as we can find the Heavenly Heart Lotus and the Dragon Blood Fruit, we can help Your Highness remove the remaining poison."

"Great! Thank you, Princess!"

Xuan Yu and Xuan Feng's faces flushed with excitement, and their eyes were full of gratitude and admiration when they looked at Su Yuejian.

Xiao Heng propped himself up and sat up, and the quilt slid down with his movements.

Suddenly he felt something was wrong, lifted the quilt and took a look, his face suddenly darkened.

Su Yuejian immediately turned her head away, her face flushed, and said embarrassedly,

"Well... you two take care of the prince, I'll go boil the medicine."

Feeling guilty, he quickly stood up and ran out of the house.

Xiao Heng stared at Su Yuejian's departing figure, with a barely perceptible tenderness and a bit of doubt in his eyes.

After he was completely out of sight, he slowly withdrew his gaze and glanced coldly at the two people in the room.

The cold, blade-like gaze made Xuan Yu and Xuan Feng shiver unconsciously.

Xuan Yu scratched his head and grinned ingratiatingly.

"Don't be angry, Your Majesty. Let me explain..."

"Your Highness, you don't know that the princess hasn't left your side even for a moment these past few days. Her eyes have been red from taking care of you, yet she still insists on staying by your side."

Xuan Yu secretly glanced at Xiao Heng's expression and continued,

"When you were unconscious, the princess was extremely anxious and tried every possible means. She personally fed you medicine, fed you food, and even cleaned your body..."

Xuan Yu exaggerated the story to Xiao Heng about how Su Yuejian had been treating and caring for him day and night for the past few days.
