Li Zhenting couldn't help but frown.

She became more and more rude. If he hadn't needed her to treat his illness and save his life, how could he allow her to be so presumptuous!

She suddenly stared into his eyes and asked sternly, "Your Majesty has a stubborn illness that's difficult to cure. He's had no appetite lately, can't sleep, and has night sweats and general fatigue. Even the imperial physician can't cure it, is that right?"

Li Zhenting was stunned when he suddenly heard Nangong Qing's question.

How did she know about this?

His father had been ill for over a month, and fearing further trouble, he and Imperial Physician Wen were the only ones aware of his illness. After all, Prince Qi's followers were clearly intent on seizing the throne, and if word of His Majesty's illness got out, the court would be in turmoil.

Nangong Qing could tell about the emperor's condition just by looking at him a few times? And the symptoms she described were almost identical to those described by Imperial Physician Wen.

"I'm trustworthy. I'm willing to diagnose the Emperor. However, matters are matters, and money is money. I need to make things clear upfront. I'm not a living Lei Feng, nor am I a saint. I'm paid for my labor and treatment. The price is five thousand taels of gold, guaranteed to cure the disease."

What did she say? Li Zhenting said that he seemed to understand and didn't seem to understand.

Nangong Qing tilted his head to look at Li Zhenting's furrowed brows, knowing that he was weighing this matter in his mind at this moment. After all, the health of King Jiajing was related to the destiny of the Great Yan Kingdom, so he did not dare to respond easily.

"Don't worry about the answer. Once I cure you of the poison, you will know my ability. But let me make it clear. Every day of delay will make the emperor's condition worse, and the treatment will be more difficult.

So, the consultation fee must be more expensive than it is now, one hundred taels of gold per day..."

After Nangong Qing finished speaking, he simply hugged his knees and rested his little head on them to take a nap.

It was noon, and as the carriage swayed, I felt more and more tired and could not open my eyes.

Anyway, I've already thrown an order to a potential client, and it seems like it's almost a sure thing. I might as well take advantage of this time to get some beauty sleep...

"Hu~sh~hu~sh~"

Listening to the light snoring sounds beside him, Li Zhenting couldn't help but look up at Nangong Qing who was lying on his knees, drooling and snoring.

This is, falling asleep as soon as he said he would? This heartless look really made him a little envious.

Whose princess snores while sleeping?

***

Kunning Palace

Prince Zai Qi Li Huating, who had just changed the bandage and the dressing, became more and more angry. He picked up an exquisite teacup on the table and threw it to the ground with a bang.

The palace maids and eunuchs serving him were so frightened that they immediately knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe.

This master has a bad temper. Beating and scolding are the least of his punishments. If he is in a bad mood, he will often beat the child to death with a stick.

"Ting'er, why are you so impatient!"

Empress Lu, who was sitting on the side, couldn't help but frown, waved her hand to signal the palace maids and eunuchs to leave, walked up to Li Huating, held his face and looked at him with heartache.

"A large sum of money will always bring about a brave man. There must be a way to help Ting'er heal his wounds."

"Mother, not only did Nangong Yan disfigure her, she even lost the baby in her belly and almost ruined Ting'er's reputation. Why did you still want to marry her?"

When Nangong Yan was mentioned, Li Huating immediately flew into a rage.

Idiot, idiot! If Nangong Yan ruined his future, even killing her wouldn't make him feel better!

"So that's what it's about?"

Empress Lu couldn't help but laugh.

"With Li Zhenting marrying Nangong Qing before, if Ting'er doesn't marry Nangong Yan, it will appear that our Ting'er is heartless and irresponsible. Marrying her now is a last resort. As time goes by, who will remember that there is a disfigured Nangong Yan in Prince Qi's mansion?"

"Besides, with my mother here, how could I, Ting'er, be treated unfairly? My mother will marry Ting'er a young and beautiful wife to serve him well. Ting'er just needs to wait for her to marry.

What we have to do now is not only to marry Nangong Yan, but also to marry her happily! We must let the whole world know that the eldest prince, Prince Qi, is kind-hearted and tolerant! "

"Nangong Yan's miscarriage today is a serious matter. Tomorrow morning, you must return to the Nangong Mansion with gifts and pay her a visit. Since it's a play, you must act realistically and make sure Nangong Yan is happy to marry you. Before the wedding banquet, do not cause any more trouble..."

"Nangong Qing is so stunning, but this time she failed and let Li Zhenting get the upper hand!"

Li Huating was indignant. He had been inferior to the second prince Li Zhenting in everything since he was a child. Not only could he not compare with him in academic studies and riding skills when he was young, but he could not compare with him in governing the country and maintaining peace when he grew up. Not only could he not compare with him, but he could not even compare with the women around him!

Nangong Yan, this stinky bitch, was touted as the most beautiful woman in the Great Yan Kingdom, but unexpectedly, the real beauty was Nangong Yan's elder sister Nangong Qing!

Comparing the two sisters, one is the blooming peony, and the other is the white lotus that has been stepped on!

Humph! Li Zhenting, just wait. When the great cause is accomplished, not only will I chop off Li Zhenting's head, but I will also throw Nangong Qing on his bed and make her try all kinds of tricks to please him!

Nangong Qing, who was being thought about by Li Huating, was sleeping in a daze. He sneezed for no apparent reason, rubbed his nose, turned over and continued to sleep.

I grabbed two handfuls casually, and damn, how did I grab a man's fingers?

He opened his eyes, hurriedly got up, and stretched out his hand to take action when he suddenly felt his scalp tingling.

When I looked up, I met that handsome yet cold face with a frown on its face.

"let go……"

He said coldly.

Nangong Qing was horrified and let go in a hurry.

What the hell was going on? She had clearly fallen asleep while sitting on the side of the carriage, but when she opened her eyes, she was lying in his arms.

Li Zhenting sat upright without changing his expression, and his trust in her increased inexplicably.

If she really had ulterior motives, how could she be so defenseless against him and fall asleep in his arms?

"I will go to the palace tomorrow to diagnose my father. I will pay 50% of the consultation fee in advance, and the remaining fee will be given to you after he recovers."

"OK! Deal!"

Nangong Qing was so happy that he grabbed his big palm with one hand and held it up, then slapped it with the other hand. After the high-five, he jumped happily to the side of the elevator.

The carriage shook violently, and the Wind Shadow and Raikage walking on both sides of the carriage couldn't help but look at each other and shook their heads at the same time.

It's simply unbearable to watch. The newly married prince and princess are being affectionate with each other all the time. The key is that the prince is weak. Can his body withstand it?

We have to find a way to remind the prince. Don't let his body be drained and cause important things to happen!

The carriage stopped, and the Kazekage and Raikage looked around vigilantly to make sure there was no danger around, and then they saluted respectfully towards the carriage.

"Please get out of the car, Your Majesty and Your Majesty..."

"Princess, be careful..."

Li Zhenting fell and jumped off the carriage, carefully helping Nangong Qing get out of the sedan. Just as he was about to walk towards the palace, Nangong Qing suddenly shouted, "Your Highness, get out of the way!"

Immediately afterwards, two silver needles were thrown from Nangong Qing's hand towards the two black shadows squatting on the tree!
