Holding the script, I want to give up.

The following day, Huangfu Hongxi was carried back to the manor due to his severe injuries, and Song Yao took care of him.

Leqi was busy taking care of Shangguan Zitong and too busy to welcome the Crown Prince back to the mansion, so she naturally didn't know that His Highness the Crown Prince was injured.

Huangfu Hongxi was recuperating in Shuiyun Palace, still unconscious. His hand unconsciously gripped Song Yao's sleeve.

"Your Highness, I'm here."

Song Yao leaned closer to him and said.

"Where is the Crown Princess? Why hasn't she come to visit?"

Song Yao turned to ask Manqi.

"In reply to Consort, the Crown Princess has suddenly fallen seriously ill and has not yet regained consciousness."

"Should we...?"

Manqi touched her neck in acknowledgment.

"Don't be too hasty and attract attention."

Song Yao said calmly, already having made up her mind.

Three days later, inside the Songyao Palace.

"Where are the concubine and the Crown Princess?"

The first thing Huangfu Hongxi said when he woke up was to ask Song Yao where Shangguan Zitong was.

"Your Highness, be careful not to tear your wound."

Seeing Huangfu Hongxi's attitude, Song Yao was furious but had no choice but to pretend to be angry.

"Your Highness, you really are biased!"

"Our concubine took care of you without taking off her clothes while you were unconscious."

"You're quite something, thinking about the Crown Princess all the time. Yet she hasn't come to see you even once."

Song Yao's maid, Manqi, said indignantly on her behalf.

"Manqi, stop talking. I believe His Highness is not that kind of person."

Song Yao feigned strength, but a layer of frost had hardened in her eyes.

"I apologize, it was my oversight."

"My concubine, how many days have I been unconscious?"

Huangfu Hongxi struggled to sit up, and Song Yao placed a soft pillow under his waist to make him more comfortable.

"Your Highness, you have been unconscious for three whole days."

"Now that you are awake, I shall take my leave."

After finishing her sentence, Song Yao took Manqi and left, but turned back halfway there.

"Why are you back again? Did you forget something?"

Huangfu Hongxi looked at Song Yao, who had returned, and asked in confusion.

"Your Highness, this is my bedroom. Please leave."

Song Yao said in an icy tone.

"My concubine, do I look like someone who can walk?"

Huangfu Hongxi felt that Song Yao had changed, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what had changed.

"Someone, help His Highness back to his own bedchamber."

Song Yao called out to the guards outside the palace.

"Yes."

After Song Yao finished speaking, she walked in with two guards and helped Huangfu Hongxi toward his bedroom.

"Manqi, let's change into a new set."

After everyone left, Song Yao carelessly threw the bedding on the floor.

"Yes. Consort, please don't be angry. Be careful not to upset yourself."

Manqi carried the blanket that Huangfu Hongxi had slept in to the bottom of the cabinet and stuffed it in a corner. Then she took out a new blanket from a higher cabinet and put it on.

Inside Huangfu Hongxi's bedroom.

"Your Highness, how did you get so badly injured?"

Hongjin, having investigated Yibai's whereabouts, came to report back, but he never expected that His Highness would end up in such a miserable state so soon.

"I am fine. Have you found anything out? Tell me in detail."

Huangfu Hongxi had just lain down when he saw Hongjin arrive, so he had to get up and sit up straight.

"On the day of your wedding to the Crown Princess, the Crown Princess of Dongchuan, Liu Yunwan, came and tried to take her away."

"For some reason, the Crown Princess did not escape with her. Instead, she had Yibai take her to Shangguan Jin."

Hong Jin replied that he had followed Mu Rongyi and her group to find Yi Bai, who had escaped with Liu Yunwan.

"Perhaps there is still a little place for me in her heart."

"Perhaps she was thinking of Nanning behind her."

Huangfu Hongxi said self-deprecatingly, while Hongjin remained silent, not daring to add fuel to the fire.

"Where is the Crown Princess? Why haven't I seen her since I woke up?"

Although Huangfu Hongxi knew that Shangguan Zitong didn't just dislike him a little, but hated him terribly, he still couldn't help but keep an eye on her every move.

"Your Highness, the Crown Princess has fallen seriously ill for some unknown reason and has not yet woken up."

After Hongjin finished speaking, he felt the air around him inexplicably grow colder.

"I see. Help me to take a look."

Huangfu Hongxi tried to get up but was held down by Hongjin.

"Your Highness, the Crown Princess is still unconscious. Your visit will not help. It would be better to recover first before going."

Hongjin felt that Huangfu Hongxi had damaged his mental state and had become irrational.

"Well, I know."

Huangfu Hongxi compromised.

"Subordinates retire."

Seeing that Huangfu Hongxi did not blame him, Hongjin ran away in a flash.

"..."

......

The next day, inside Tangxi Pavilion.

"Ah Li, when are you coming back? I've turned into a ghost again."

Xiao Zitong floated in the air, on the verge of tears, the phenomenon of her soul and body separating was utterly incomprehensible. She would float here and there, sometimes sitting beside Shangguan Zitong's body, watching her.

"Doctor, the Crown Princess seems much better now, why hasn't she woken up yet?"

Leqi looked at the physician taking her pulse and asked in confusion, her brows furrowed so deeply they were almost touching.

"I don't know. There are so many strange things in this world, and I have very little knowledge of them."

"In my guess, the Crown Princess is very likely suffering from a rare form of dissociative identity disorder."

The physician also frowned, saying he wasn't entirely sure if his guess was correct.

"Wow, this old man's something else. So, how can I wake up?"

Xiao Zitong floated around in front of the physician a few times.

"Then may I ask the doctor, how should the Crown Princess be treated?"

"This dissociation is no joke. If it really happens, the Crown Princess may never wake up again."

"I'm nervous," Leqi said.

"Perhaps having a close relative come to care for me and talk to me will wake me up. I can only continue to use medicine to prolong my life."

After the physician finished speaking, he left and went back to the pharmacy to get the medicine and prepare it.

"Ugh, this is so unreliable. It sounds just like the vegetative state patients from my original world."

"Your Highness, please wake up soon. There are still many people in this world who love you."

Leqi held Shangguan Zitong's hand and placed it on her forehead, praying that she would wake up.

'emm...'

Leqi's words left Xiao Zitong speechless.

"Leqi, how is the Crown Princess?"

Song Yao approached Shangguan Zitong's bed from outside the palace, covering her nose with her sleeve and asking. The smell of medicine here was too strong. It made her feel that Shangguan Zitong wouldn't live much longer.

"In reply to Consort, it seems that the Crown Princess is suffering from dissociative identity disorder. Why don't you try talking to her?"

In her desperation, Leqi sought any medical treatment she could find.

"Leqi, I know you're anxious, but you can't let Song Yao try."

Xiao Zitong floated on Leqi's head, wanting to see what her head was made of.

“I am not someone who is on good terms with the Crown Princess, but I can give it a try.”

After finishing her sentence, Song Yao leaned close to Shangguan Zitong and whispered in her ear, "Shangguan Zitong, you don't like Huangfu Hongxi, is it because of Mu Rongyi? But Mu Rongyi is a married man, and also your good friend, you really..."

"Damn it, if you can't say it, then don't say it. Besides Sister Liu, who would like that paranoid guy?"

Xiao Zitong was so angry that she gritted her teeth and threw a few punches at the air, but failed to hit Song Yao.

There was no response; Shangguan Zitong remained as composed as ever.

"My lady, thank you for your kindness."

"You should go and take care of His Highness. The Crown Princess can be taken care of by me."

Seeing that Shangguan Zitong had no reaction, Leqi bowed to Song Yao without any hope.

"Okay, then take good care of the Crown Princess."

After finishing her sentence, Song Yao took Manqi back to Shuiyun Pavilion; she had no intention of taking care of Huangfu Hongxi.

"Consort, do you think the Crown Princess can wake up?"

Manqi followed behind Song Yao and asked cautiously.

"I don't know. Let's not bring this up again. Be careful, the walls may be overheard."

Song Yao observed her surroundings and found that there was indeed no one around.

Inside Huangfu Hongxi's bedroom.

"Hongjin, has the Crown Princess not woken up yet?"

Huangfu Hongxi propped himself up, trying to get out of bed.

"The Crown Princess seems to be suffering from dissociative identity disorder; it's unknown when she will wake up."

Hongjin went over to help him up.

"Quickly help me over there to take a look."

Huangfu Hongxi went to Tangxi Pavilion with Hongjin's help.

"Leqi, how is the Crown Princess?"

Huangfu Hongxi asked with some concern but not much.

"Your Highness, the Crown Princess has not yet woken up. You may try talking to her. Perhaps the situation will improve."

Le Qi stood up and bowed, making way for Huangfu Hongxi.

"Tsk tsk tsk, the ultimate working class, one comes and one goes. Can't all these people come at once?"

"Oh right, why didn't Song Yao and Huangfu Hongxi come together?"

Xiao Zitong floated in front of Huangfu Hongxi, her eyes gleaming with an irrepressible gossip.

"If you wake up, I will write a divorce agreement, let you leave, and not make things difficult for Nanning, okay?"

Huangfu Hongxi knelt by her bedside and whispered something to her.

Shangguan Zitong's finger twitched!

Actually, after hearing this, Xiao Zitong was so excited that she grabbed the main body's finger and pulled it.

"Your Highness, the Crown Princess's finger has twitched. Please say a few more words."

Leqi was incredibly excited when she saw her own hand move.

"..."

Huangfu Hongxi was speechless.

......
