The little heroine investigates a mysterious case

An hour later, in the room of the secretary of Prince Xian's Mansion.

Shishu opened his eyes in a daze and found himself lying on the bed. He suddenly sat up and rubbed his dizzy head.

He remembered that he helped His Highness back to his bedroom. His Highness sat at the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and also poured him a cup of tea. Then he drank the tea...

Did he lose consciousness in the middle? When did he return to his room and take a nap in the middle of the day?

Suddenly, Shishu saw Chunlan sitting at the table.

"Chunlan? Why are you in my room?"

"you're awake?"

Chunlan stood up and walked to the bedside, looking at Shishu with eyes full of pity.

Shishu's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt a little uneasy. He had just fallen into a coma for unknown reasons. Could it be that he had an incurable terminal illness?

Chunlan sat on the edge of the bed, wanting to say something but stopping herself. She read the whole story from beginning to end and knew how much preparation the secretary had made in order to accompany the prince and princess to the Kingdom of Yue.

He polished his sword six times a day, got up earlier than the chickens, slept later than the dogs, and practiced martial arts diligently.

He even gave himself all his annual salary and made three new sets of clothes for himself, for fear of embarrassing the prince and princess when he arrived in Yue State.

If this poor sincere and loyal little thing knew the truth, I'm afraid her heart would be broken.

Chunlan sighed three times and told the secretary the truth.

"You must hold on, don't be sad..."

Shishu grabbed Chunlan's arm, his voice filled with tears.

"Don't tell me! I can't stand it! I'm just an ordinary person. Even though I'm His Highness's personal bodyguard, I also have a vulnerable side. I don't want to know the truth!"

Chunlan pursed her lips. If the prince hadn't repeatedly reminded her, she wouldn't want to do this thankless job.

Since Shishu didn't want to know the truth from her, she was too lazy to waste her words. Shishu just walked out of the house and asked casually. He had no choice but to know.

Chunlan pushed the secretary's hand away and stood up.

"You take a rest first. I have to go get busy. The sun is shining brightly today, and the prince asked me to help him dry his books."

Lost in the delusion that she was suffering from a terminal illness, Shishu was so concerned with her own sadness that she didn't hear what Chunlan said at all.

Chunlan opened the door and walked out. A cold wind blew in. Shishu shuddered and his mind suddenly became clear. He hurriedly got down to put on his shoes.

"Chunlan, I've made up my mind. If I have to die, I'll wait until I accompany His Highness to the Kingdom of Yue before I die! His Highness and the others haven't left yet, right?"

Chunlan suddenly turned around, completely shocked. What did Shishu mean by that? What was he thinking? He looked like he was dying.

Chunlan simply stated the facts directly.

"The prince and princess set off for Yue Kingdom an hour ago. Little Medical Fairy has developed a new drug that makes you sleepless. The prince tried it on you and it worked quite well. You slept for exactly an hour."

Shishu looked at Chunlan's face blankly. Why didn't he understand?

"What did you say? Say it again!"

"The prince used you to test drugs, knocked you out, and left with the princess a long time ago. Do you understand now?"

Shishu understood, and his face turned pale for a moment, then flushed red.

So angry!!!

"Ahhhh! I won't live anymore! How could His Highness do this? He's abandoned me again!"

For a whole day and night, everyone in the mansion could hear the secretary's sad and angry wails, which sounded like sobs and complaints, and even the heavens seemed to want to cry.

So, early the next morning, heavy snow began to fall from the sky again.

It is said that the convoy heading to Yue State quickly drove out of the south city gate.

In the carriage, Gu Zhanghua and Zhao Xuan both had red faces, pouty lips, and bright, watery lips.

Gu Zhanghua looked at Zhao Xuan with sparkling eyes. Zhao Xuan quickly gave in and pretended to lift the car curtain to look at the scenery outside to avoid Gu Zhanghua's lingering gaze.

There was a thin layer of snow on the fields, and the cold wind gradually cooled her red cheeks.

Zhao Xuan suddenly saw two familiar figures on the side of the road, smiling and waving at her.

"parking!"

Zhao Xuan shouted, lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage.

Gu Zhanghua didn't understand what was going on, so he followed Zhao Xuan out of the carriage.

Xiao Yixiang and Hao Xiong walked up to the two of them.

"you……"

Zhao Xuan looked at the two people looking at her with smiles on their faces and was speechless for a moment.

Hao Xiong looked smug and raised his head proudly.

"Sister, don't think about abandoning us. Although we set out later than you, I will take a shortcut!"

The Little Doctor Immortal was as calm as a chrysanthemum, but his words were sonorous and powerful.

"Hao Xiong rescued Tian Shiliu and brought her up the mountain. I treated her, and you had no prior knowledge of this. You must explain this matter clearly to Emperor Yue. We both must go!"

"I see your motives are not pure. Are you afraid of being pestered by Gu Jingfeng and the ladies, so you came out to get some peace and quiet?"

Zhao Xuan's words broke the little medical fairy's defense.

She covered Zhao Xuan's mouth with her hand and jumped up and down.

"Don't mention that scumbag! His wife is more like a monster to me, too scary!"

Zhao Xuan lightly took away Xiao Yixian's hand, pointed at Gu Zhanghua, and decided to settle the score with Xiao Yixian.

"You actually betrayed me!"

The little medical fairy felt very guilty but spoke righteously!

"Xiao Wu came to see me early this morning. I think he's right. Husband and wife live and die together. Otherwise, if anything happens to you, he can't live alone. I think it makes sense. Let's die together!"

"Pah, pah, pah! You're such a jinx!"

Zhao Xuan spat on the ground three times!

Ouch! My mouth hurts so much, it’s all because of Xiaowu biting me!

Zhao Xuan glared at Gu Zhanghua angrily, and Gu Zhanghua gave her an innocent look in return.

You provoked me first, so I provoked you back. Is that wrong?

Zhao Xuan silently withdrew her gaze. She held Xiao Yixian and Hao Xiong's hands one each and pulled them towards the carriage.

At this point, she understood everyone's thoughts and was determined to go to Yue State with him, and no one could drive her away.

"I really can't do anything about you! Fortunately, Xiaoling wasn't involved..."

"Drive! Drive!"

Before Zhao Xuan finished speaking, she saw Guan Liushui riding his horse towards them at full speed, and soon arrived in front of the four people.

"Shut up!"

Guan Liushui pulled the reins of the horse and jumped off.

"Great, I finally caught up with you!"

"Why are you joining in the fun? We're not going there to have fun, we're going to do serious business, and it could be a life-or-death situation!"

Zhao Xuan was really anxious now. She hadn't heard from Guan Liushui for several days and thought he was singing and dancing happily in the Moon Tower. She didn't expect that he was holding back such a big move!

"I didn't join in the fun. I was invited to the Kingdom of Yue to participate in the New Year's Eve singing and dancing competition. My team represented the Kingdom of Xia.

The most unfortunate thing is that I made a bet with the Emperor of Song. If I can't win the first prize this time, I must go to the Song court and serve as his court musician for three years for free!

Three years, all for nothing! That’s terrible, so this time I have to give it my all!

Zhao Xuan looked at Guan Liushui with suspicion. How could she not believe a word he said?

"You're really not here to help me?"

"Is your face that big? It's only about the size of a palm!"

Guan Liushui handed the reins to a guard next to him, and spoke every word very seriously.

"I'd like to borrow your help. I'm rushing to Yue Country to lead the charge and book an inn for my team. In short, there are so many things to prepare in advance that I don't have the time to help you."

Zhao Xuan touched her face and found that it was indeed not that big. Okay, I'll believe you for now.

When the convoy set off again, there were five people in the carriage.

Zhao Xuan looked at Xiao Yixiang and Hao Xiong and explained to them.

"When Xiaowu and I first learned about this, we had no intention of involving you two, so we didn't discuss it with you."

Hao Xiong let out a muffled laugh, looking as if he had known this would happen.

"Of course I know you have no intention of discussing it with us, and we are too lazy to discuss it with you. Anyway, we will just follow you when you leave."

Zhao Xuan's heart sank, and she felt a little angry at the criticism.

"What do you mean? It seems like I like to act on my own?"

Gu Zhanghua is still not completely relieved of his anger. It would be fine if he didn't mention it, but once he did, he couldn't help but complain.

"What do you mean by 'as if'? You've never considered our feelings. You think you're doing this for our own good, but don't you know that we don't appreciate it in our hearts?"

The three people confronted her one by one, and Zhao Xuan suddenly became dispirited. It was not that she was self-righteous, but she did not want to trouble others when she encountered difficulties and always wanted to solve them by herself.

She cares too much about the hard-earned friendship, she is afraid of becoming a burden to others, and she is afraid of losing.

Gu Zhanghua seemed to know what she was thinking. He held her hand and spoke to her word by word.

"Those who always eat and drink together are called drinking buddies. When you encounter difficulties and work together to find ways to overcome them, you are a true friend. We will never leave you."

"I understand. Thank you."

Zhao Xuan's brows completely relaxed, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

Friends, fortunately she has a lot.
