After Xiang Qing left, Fu Ling thought about it and decided to follow her.

"Cough!..." A coughing sound was heard from inside the house.

Fu Ling frowned slightly. Judging from the coughing, Qin'er's illness was not as simple as Xiang Qing said.

Xiang Qing pushed the door open and walked in, quickly pouring Qin'er a cup of hot water. "How could it be so serious? Didn't you take your medicine for today?"

"It's nothing serious. It will pass in a short time. There's no need to take medicine."

"No wonder your condition is getting worse. How can you serve His Highness when you are so ill? If you don't consider yourself, you should also consider our Highness."

"I think it's just a minor illness and it will be fine after a good night's sleep."

"Then why is it so serious? It was originally a minor illness, but you delayed the best time for treatment. Aren't you the one who suffers?"

Xiang Qing complained, but he held the water in his hand to her lips: "Drink some water first, I'll go make you some medicine. You don't have to go anywhere today, just rest in your room."

"No, I have to go and serve His Highness."

"You are already sick. His Highness asked you to take good care of yourself. It's not too late to go after you recover. Don't infect His Highness with your condition."

Qin'er suddenly felt that this made sense, but she still felt uneasy.

Seeing her thoughts, Xiang Qing comforted her, "Alright, don't think too much. His Highness is a very magnanimous master. All we can do is try not to get sick so that we can serve His Highness well."

"Sister Xiang Qing, why are you here? Why aren't you serving His Highness? His Highness needs someone by his side."

"I'm worried about others, Sister Xiang Qing, you should go quickly." Qin'er was worried about Fu Ling and hurriedly urged Xiang Qing to leave.

"You are just impatient, don't worry, I just came here from His Highness. Eat this first."

Xiang Qing had an exquisite little porcelain bottle in her hand. She took out two small black pills from it and handed them to Qin'er along with some water.

"Your Highness asked me to bring this to you. Remember to take it three times a day, two pills at a time. No need to chew them, just swallow them directly with water."

Although her body felt uncomfortable, Qin'er's heart was warm at this moment.

"Don't be so touched. Take the medicine first. I'll make you some porridge. Eat as much as you can."

"Sister Xiang Qing, I really don't know how to thank you. You have always been helping me and taking care of me."

"You call me sister, if I don't take care of you, who will I take care of? Stop being so hypocritical. Taking good care of your health is more important than anything else."

"Yes, I will take the medicine obediently."

With a puff, the cloudy sky turned sunny.

After taking care of Qin'er and taking her medicine, Xiang Qing told her to have a good rest: "Have a good sleep. I'll make you some porridge and bring it to you when it's ready."

The effect of the medicine was very strong, and my eyelids started to twitch after a while.

Only after Xiang Qing left did Fu Ling come out from behind the tree.

He glanced at the closed door but ultimately did not step in.

When she arrived at Fengci Palace, she asked Bu Hanci for permission to stay in Prince Gen's Mansion for a few days.

If it were any other time, Bu Hanci would have agreed, but now that her wedding was approaching, she didn't want anything to happen at this critical juncture.

"Ling'er, your wedding is not far away. Just stay in the palace and relax."

The incident with Xuanyuan Zhaoyuan happened not long ago, so how could they dare to let her leave the palace?

As long as the murderer is not found, Bu Hanci will feel uneasy and feel that everyone outside the palace is a person with ulterior motives.

"Mother, have you forgotten that I am skilled in martial arts? If we really encounter criminals, I will be able to capture them."

"When did you become so bold, kid?"

"Mother, it's a blessing, not a disaster. If it is a disaster, it can't be avoided. If someone really attacks the royal family, even if we can hide for a while, we can't hide forever. Moreover, I think what happened to my fifth sister was just an accident. We can't be so nervous because of a single accident, don't you agree?"

"Mother~"

Being pestered, Bu Hanci had no choice but to agree. She repeatedly warned, "Ling'er, remember, don't run around. If you want to go out, your mynah bird must accompany you. Don't act recklessly."

"Thank you, mother. I will remember this."

Seeing Fu Ling so happy, Bu Hanci could only shake his head helplessly.

Fu Ling got the pass to leave the palace, and Bu Hanci arranged for a palace maid and a eunuch to accompany him. Both of them knew some martial arts, and the eunuch was responsible for driving the carriage.

A palace maid accompanied her in the carriage. Fu Ling had seen this person before. She was the queen's personal maid. According to seniority, she had to call her Aunt Lin.

"Your Highness, have a cup of tea." Aunt Lin poured a cup of tea for Fu Ling.

"Aunt Lin, how long have you been with our mother?" Fu Ling asked curiously after taking the tea.

"I followed your Highness when she first married into the palace." Aunt Lin replied with a smile.

"Then you are considered an elder beside the Queen Mother."

"Yes, Your Highness."

"No wonder the Queen Mother asked you to follow me. It's really troublesome for Aunt to accompany me."

"Your Highness, what are you talking about? I have watched you grow up, and protecting you is my responsibility. I know some leg skills, and Your Majesty is worried that you might get into an accident, so she asked me to follow you."

"I see! Then how much does Aunt Lin know about Xuanyuan City?"

"I have always been by your side and rarely leave the palace. I don't know much about Xuanyuan City. Your Highness, do you have any questions when asking this?"

"Not really. I rarely leave the palace, and I wanted to take this opportunity to travel around."

"Your Highness, your wedding is approaching. The Queen is very worried about your safety. Before leaving the palace, she specifically instructed this servant to prevent you from going to any dangerous places."

"It's broad daylight, the world is clear, how could there be so many dangers? This is Xuanyuan King City, the security is pretty good. I'll just be strolling around the city at most. Aunt Lin, don't worry!"

It seems that if I want to get out, I still have to rely on myself. The queen mother nominally hired someone to protect me, but more importantly, she was monitoring me to prevent me from running around.

After chatting casually for a while, the carriage drove directly to Prince Gen's Palace.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of Prince Gen’s mansion, I saw Xuanyuan Gen waiting there.

"Myna, why are you here? Are you going out?" Fu Ling did not step on the horse stool, but jumped lightly from the carriage.

"The Queen Mother sent a message saying that you have left the palace and asked me to take good care of you."

Fu Ling was embarrassed. Did he treat her like a child? Was it necessary to make such a big fuss just to go out?

"Come on, Ling'er, let's go inside and talk."

"Why are you leaving the palace today? What do you want from me?"

Fu Ling came close to Xuanyuan Gen and replied in a low voice, "It's so boring in the palace, so I wanted to go out for a walk. I've been here for so long, but I haven't been to the royal city yet. I want to buy some things."

Xuanyuan Gen felt a little guilty. It was indeed his problem. People came all the way from China to Xuanyuan, but he never took them out for a walk and failed to fulfill the duties of a good host.

"This is my fault. Tomorrow I'll take you on a nice stroll around the Royal City and let you try all the delicious food there, okay?"

"Sure, let's invite Lu Beichen along." Fu Ling readily agreed.
