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

The red window was half-open, letting in a slight chill. Suddenly, a drizzle came, dripping on the window. The candlelight jumped, flickering and reflecting her cold eyebrows.

Xiao Heng was born on the day the late emperor passed away. The Imperial Astronomical Observatory declared that Xiao Heng was destined to be an unlucky star and must be eliminated to protect the nation's destiny. To protect his brother, the current emperor concealed the truth from everyone and announced to the public that Xiao Heng was born half a month after the late emperor's death. All the palace maids and doctors who were responsible for delivering the empress dowager on that day were executed.

Except for the imperial physician Lin Yi Zheng, but not long after that Lin Yi Zheng asked to retire and return home. The emperor allowed him to go back home, and there has been no news of him since then.

Only the Empress Dowager kept the words of the Imperial Observatory in mind and always thought that Xiao Heng was evil.

Although he was not executed, he was sent away from her side after Xiao Heng was born and locked up in a cool hall in the cold palace. She told the outside world that he was a loner by nature and did not like to see people, in order to avoid everyone's suspicion.

"Although the late emperor was ill, I didn't expect his condition to worsen so suddenly. Before his death, the late emperor was still nagging His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, now the current emperor, to protect the Empress Dowager's unborn child and safeguard Tianjin."

"I remember that two days before the Empress Dowager gave birth, I went to check on the late Emperor's pulse. The late Emperor was in a very good mood, and he had thought of two nice words to name the child in the Empress Dowager's womb."

"To say that the Regent killed the late Emperor is sheer nonsense. I never believed in astronomical predictions. Only those fools at the Imperial Astronomical Observatory who eat nothing can come up with such talk!"

Thinking of Wen Zhiling's words, Su Yuejian frowned slightly.

She didn't know whether Xiao Heng knew this or not. The Empress Dowager's dislike for him was due to a word from the Imperial Observatory: "Heaven's Nemesis." That word turned him from a noble prince into an abandoned child bullied by everyone.

Born in the clouds, abandoned in the mud.

Even Aunt Ai, the only person who had ever given him warmth, died at his own hands. He spent countless days and nights out of control, year after year.

She didn't dare to think about how he survived those years in the palace.

"How can one sit in the wind on a cool autumn night?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Su Yuejian came back to her senses. Xiao Heng closed the window, blocking out the growing wind and rain outside.

"Your hands are so cold, yet you're still sitting here in the wind. If you catch a cold tomorrow, Master Su will have to give you those bitter medicines again."

Xiao Heng held her slightly cold hand in his palm to warm it, and as if it was not enough, he directly hugged her in his arms.

"My hair is all wet. If I hadn't come, I would have caught a cold if I had continued sitting like this."

While he was talking, his hands were not idle either. He carried her sideways to the bed, went to the outer room to pour her a cup of hot tea and put it in her hands to warm it, and then found a dry handkerchief to wring her slightly wet hair.

Su Yuejian chuckled and lowered her head. Xiao Heng frowned slightly, "I'm talking to you nicely, but you're not listening and you're still laughing?"

"You're so cute when you laugh." Her eyes were red at the corners, and a tiny light flashed in them. Her cold brows softened. "The way you grumble to yourself is nothing like the cold-hearted prince that the outside world has rumored."

Xiao Heng was stunned for a moment, then heard her say, "She's so cute, so attractive."

He was always the one teasing her, but this was the first time she heard Su Yuejian say such words. It was very fresh. Xiao Heng's ears turned slightly red and the corners of his lips curled up slightly, but he didn't show it on his face.

"Did you know you were going to drink ginger soup and said something nice in advance?"

The smile faded, and Su Yuejian pursed her lips. She frowned in resistance, turned around and was about to get on the bed, lying down quickly and covering herself with the quilt.

"No need for ginger soup. I'm in great shape and will be fine."

These days, Xiao Heng has learned everything about her likes and dislikes. She likes to eat pork ribs and drink fish soup, eat lotus cake and drink milk tea, hates ginger and bitter medicine, is afraid of thunder, and what she treasures most are poison and her long black hair. From food to weather, he even knows what kind of cosmetics she likes to use.

Xiao Heng looked at her hiding herself in the quilt with only her eyes exposed, and couldn't help laughing. He had never realized that she was so easy to fool before.

Now I believe everything I say.

Lifting his robe, he sat on the edge of the bed and pulled her quilt down, "Don't suffocate yourself."

Su Yuejian looked at him, thinking of what happened today, and after some hesitation, she told him about the Queen Mother's health.

"Even if I try my best, I can only keep her safe for half a year."

Xiao Heng's expression didn't change much, and he replied softly, "It's okay, it's all fate."

Looking at his indifferent look, Su Yuejian's eyebrows moved slightly when she recalled how he looked when he was a child, staring at the Queen Mother and cautiously calling her "Mom".

There was a slight coolness between his fingers. A few white and tender fingers stretched out from under the brocade quilt and hooked their hands around his. Xiao Heng chuckled softly, a touch of charm on his brows. "Why? Do you want me to sleep with you?"

Su Yue glared at him angrily. She was indeed not as shameless as him!

"Wait until I fall asleep before you leave."

"it is good."

Xiao Heng lowered his head and played with her fingers. There were many small scars on her hands left by bumps and bruises when she was blind as a child, but when she was in a coma before, Xiao Heng used the ointment made by Qi Yuan to nourish her hands every day. Now, the scars have completely disappeared, and her fingers are white and soft. Her nails are like small crescent moons, flawless white, with a faint sheen, which is very beautiful.

The person lying down opened his eyes, which had just been closed. Xiao Heng looked up and asked, "What's wrong?"

Su Yuejian frowned, "It's raining."

Xiao Heng,?

"It's raining, it will cover up the smell, which is not good for Xiaobai to find things."

Xiao Heng placed a kiss on her forehead and gently patted her across the quilt to soothe her to sleep. "It's okay, I'll take care of everything. Go to sleep."

Su Yue originally wanted to wait and see when Xuan Shuang would come back, but perhaps because the person in front of her was too gentle, she gradually became overwhelmed by sleepiness.

The wind and rain grew heavier, and the night wind was noisy. He glanced at the person sleeping soundly on the bed, gently pulled out his hand and the corner of his clothes, stood up and left.

"My subordinates and Xiaobai followed the trail all the way to Cuiping Peak, but the rain was so heavy that Xiaobai lost his way."

Water dripped from the corners of his clothes. Xuanshuang lowered his brows and said, "I have left a mark. Cuiping Peak is surrounded by forests, and the terrain is winding and full of hidden caves. I am afraid of alerting the enemy, so I dare not explore further. I will return first to report."

Xiao Heng nodded and said, "Tell Xuan Wu to take a team in to explore the way tomorrow."

"Yes."

Xuanshuang took the order and walked out. Xiao Heng's voice came from behind.

"Make her a bowl of cinnamon twig soup tomorrow."

She paused and turned to look at the person in the main seat, her lips moved, but Xiao Heng didn't raise his eyelids, "She fell into the water and was caught in the rain today."

"Yes."

"I told you yesterday that you don't need to drink ginger soup."

Su Yuejian pinched her nose and looked at Xuanshuang with a resentful look. Xuanshuang's expression remained unchanged, "This is Guizhi Decoction, not Ginger Decoction."

Su Yuejian,? She is a doctor, how could she not know what Guizhi Decoction is!

"Ginger is in Guizhi Decoction!"

Xuan Shuang stirred the medicine with a spoon, her face calm and her heart still, "Where is the ginger? I didn't see it."

Su Yuejian took a deep breath, looked at Yuzhu and Yinxin who were trying to hold back their laughter, snorted twice, and could only force himself to drink it under Mou Shuang's gaze.

He fed her another piece of hibiscus cake, and seeing her expression ease up, Xuanshuang curled the corners of her lips slightly.

The princess is so easy to coax.

She went out with the empty soup bowl in her hand and caught a glimpse of Qingshan waving at her from the dark. Xuanshuang raised an eyebrow, "?"

Qingshan grinned and brought out a bowl of medicine from behind. "Xiao Shuangshuang, you got caught in the rain yesterday, so I made some soup for you. Drink it while it's hot."

Smelling the pungent and familiar smell, Xuanshuang took two steps back and turned away.

"I don't drink Guizhi Decoction."

Qingshan scratched his head, "Guizhi decoction? Don't go, this is ginger soup!"
