“Green juice… voodoo?” Nu Er’s peach blossom eyes showed a dark red light. His fingers quickly grasped Nan Gongyin’s neck. This time, even Nightshade didn’t have time to stop, Nu Er opened his red lips coldly, “I didn’t hear what you said just now, you say it again.”
“His Royal Highness…”
Nan Gongyin raised his hand and stopped Nightshade.
Nan Gongyin looked at Nu Er’s gruesome and enchanting face, and his thin lips opened, “Miss Nu Er, I don’t have…”
Nu Er’s fingers tightened, and blood flowed from Nan Gongyin’s neck, “Nan Gongyin, you better think about it before you speak.”
Seeing Nan Gongyin’s neck hurt, Nightshade squeezed his fingers tightly. He said coldly, “Nu Er, if you don’t let go of your Highness, you don’t even think about leaving the Southern Lin Dynasty Palace safely with your Miss.”
Nu Er’s peach blossom eyes turned slightly, and he glanced at Nightshade mockingly, “With you and the trashes in the Southern Lin Dynasty?”
Nightshade was furious, “Don’t be too presumptuous.”
Nu Er didn’t put Nightshade in his eyes at all. He felt that talking one more sentence to him would be wasting his effort. The peach blossom eyes turned to Nan Gongyin’s unparalleled handsome face, “If your answer doesn’t satisfy me, I’ll break your neck.”
This was not a threat, it was a fact.
Nan Gongyin didn’t seem to feel the pain in his neck. He looked at the sleepy little girl in Nu Er’s arms, and his dark eyes flashed with dim light. After a while, his eyes turned to Nu Er’s face.
“If I’m dead, Xi’er will not survive either.”
Nu Er’s red eyes narrowed dangerously.
Nan Gongyin continued, “Miss Nu Er, give Xi’er to me, and I will return you a lively Miss.”
…
Xiao Xi woke up again and saw Nan Gongyin, her heart was tight. She glanced around the room, but she did not see Nu Er.
“Are you awake?”
Nan Gongyin’s gentle voice was like the plucking of piano strings, which was very pleasant.
Xiao Xi nodded slightly, “Where is Nu Er?”
“She went to prepare medicated food for you. She will come over in a while.”
Xiao Xi’s heart gradually relaxed. It’s great that Nu Er is safe.
Xiao Xi moved his gaze to Nan Gongyin’s face again. After looking for a moment, she said, “Nan Gongyin, let’s make a deal!”
“A deal?”
“You must have something to ask from me for poisoning me with the Green Juice Voodoo! Say it! How can I help you?”
An astonishment flashed in Nan Gongyin’s eyes. Soon, his expression returned to normal. He he held Xiao Xi’s hands, “Xi’er, I don’t know about the Green Juice Voodoo. I hope you can forgive my careless mistake.”
“It’s not important anymore. Nan Gongyin, let’s be honest, what do you want me to do?”
Seeing Xiao Xi’s alienated expression, Nan Gongyin seemed to have lost something suddenly in his heart.
At this time.
The door was suddenly pushed open.
Nightshade walked in, “The last antidote of Green Juice Voodoo is in the coffin of the imperial concubine. Xiao Xi, if you want to cure the Green Juice Voodoo on your body, you must first help His Highness to save the imperial concubine.”
Xiao Xi was surprised, and she suddenly felt that Nightshade was ridiculous. I’m not a god, how can I possibly save the dead imperial concubine?
Nightshade was simply joking.
“Nightshade, are you crazy? Even the miracle-working doctor can’t revive the dead, how can I save her?” After a pause, Xiao Xi sarcastically said, “Just say it if you don’t want to give the antidote. It’s too despicable to use this method.”
Nightshade didn’t seem to see Nan Gongyin’s cold gaze. He walked toward Xiao Xi and continued, “Yes, the miracle-working doctor can’t save the dead, but you’re a six-tailed spirit fox. Your blood can save the dead the imperial concubine.” And the child in the imperial concubine’s belly.
Xiao Xi was shocked, and her whole body trembled. My blood… can bring people back to life?
“Miss will not use her blood to save your imperial concubine.”
Nu Er walked in with the medicated food in his hand. His peach blossom eyes flashed a hint of coldness as he saw Nan Gongyin holding Xiao Xi’s hands.
“Miss’ medicated diet is here. Nan Gongyin, you should move out of the way.”
“Nu Er, you are too presumptuous…”
Nan Gongyin released Xiao Xi’s hands, and Nu Er squeezed Nan Gongyin over.
“I’m used to being presumptuous.” Nu Er’s gentle sound was majestic without getting angry.
“You…” Nightshade squeezed her fingers tightly, but he was helpless against Nu Er.
Nan Gongyin’s eyes darkened, watching Nu Er holding the soup spoon in his hand and feeding Xiao Xi bite by bite. He suddenly had an illusion that between Nu Er and Xiao Xi…
Nan Gongyin shook his head. Nu Er is a woman, it is impossible to have anything between Xiao Xi…
After staying in the East Palace, Xiao Xi felt that her body was getting better. She didn’t even have to strength to get down from the bed previously in the regent mansion. Now not only she could get out of the bed, she even felt spirited now.
Green Juice Voodoo.
As long as she was by Nan Gongyin’s side, she would be fine.
The sun was shining bright this day. Xiao Xi walked out of the room alone, sat beside the pavilion, and looked at a pool of lotus flowers. In the past two days, she had thought that since Nan Gongyin needed her blood to save his mother, it was actually not impossible. When she gets better until her blood can be extracted, she would go save his mother.
This could be regarded as returning Nan Gongyin’s life-saving grace. From then on, she and Nan Gongyin wouldn’t have any intersection at all.
“Who are you?”
A woman’s voice recalled Xiao Xi’s sanity.
Xiao Xi turned her head and saw Ji Yunxue’s beautiful face. She dressed in a white dress like a lotus fairy.
Ji Yunxue looked at the exquisite little girl in front of her, and she was slightly startled, “Whose family are you from? Why do you come to the East Palace?”
Xiao Xi’s dark eyes turned slightly, and her immature voice said, “My father is the prince of the East Palace, pretty sister, who are you?”
Ji Yunxue’s heart shook fiercely, and she stepped back two steps vainly. Her pretty face turned pale, “Your father is… the crown prince?”
Seeing Ji Yunxue’s shocked appearance, Xiao Xi quickly understood that the beauty in front of her liked Nan Gongyin. Xiao Xi sighed in her heart and nodded innocently.
“Daddy only took me back from the outside a few days ago, saying that he brings me here to live a good life.”
Ji Yunxue held back the sour tears and continued to ask, “Then your mother also came to the East Palace too?”
Xiao Xi saw Nu Er coming not far away. She wanted to point to Nu Er and said it was her “mother”. After thinking about it, Nu Er was disgusted when she saw Nan Gongyin, so this flaw was too big. She shook her head and said, “My mother is dead after giving birth to me. I was brought up by my aunty. Pretty sister looks, that’s my aunty.”
Xiao Xi waved to Nu Er, “Aunty, aunty, I’m here.”
Ji Yunxue saw that Nu Er, the “aunty” was enchanting. She could even beat all the beautiful women in the entire Southern Lin Dynasty. So, the mother of this little girl must be a stunning beauty. Ji Yunxue suddenly felt ashamed. She felt that she was not worthy of Nan Gongyin.
Nu Er walked up to Xiao Xi and glanced at Ji Yunxue. Seeing Xiao Xi blinking at him, he also cooperated. She smiled enchantingly, “Xi’er, you are really naughty, why did you come here without telling aunty?”
Nu Er bent down and hugged Xiao Xi, “This miss is…”
Xiao Xi blinked her eyes to hold back her laugh, and said solemnly, “Pretty sister, you haven’t introduced yourself yet.”
Ji Yunxue’s eyes were a little moist, and she smiled reluctantly, “My name is Ji Yunxue, and I’m the younger sister of Concubine Ji.”
“Sister Ji, are you here to find my dad? He seems to…”
Ji Yunxue hurriedly shook her hand, “Xi’er, don’t get me wrong, I’m not here to find the crown prince, I’m… Oh! Right, I just remembered that I have something to do, so I will leave first. Sister will come back again later.”
After speaking, Ji Yunxue turned around and ran away like she was escaping.
Nu Er looked at Ji Yunxue’s back and twitched at the corner of her mouth, “This woman likes that despicable man, Nan Gongyin.”
Xiao Xi’s shoulders trembled and she laughed.
Nu Er looked at Xiao Xi’s “crazy” laughter and frowned.
“Aunty…” Xiao Xi pointed to Nu Er. Seeing Nu Er’s face turned pale, she covered her small mouth and patted Nu Er’s shoulder with her other small hand, “You can cooperate well too!”
Nu Er rolled his eyes at Xiao Xi. I cooperated, isn’t it because of her?
Xiao Xi stopped her laughter, and her clear eyes flashed as she said slowly, “Nu Er, if I say that Nan Gongyin is my dead, would the emperor of the Southern Lin Dynasty believe?”
Nu Er frowned and snorted coldly, “Nan Gongyin that kind of bastard, how can he be Miss’ father?”
“Nan Gongyin has been with me for the past two days, saying that he will find a suitable opportunity to announce that I’m his crown princess. Compared to the crown princess, I think the identity of the princess (crown prince’s daughter) is more suitable for me.”
Nu Er’s peach blossom eyes flashed with scarlet light, “Nan Gongyin, this shameless bastard, he really thought he is Miss’ husband-in-law after he went through the wedding ceremony in the Spirit Palace? What’s more, the husband and wife had bowed to each other yet, so the wedding doesn’t count”
Nu Er was very angry.
When it came to this, Xiao Xi felt a headache. Didn’t we agree that I’m marry Feng Lingran? Why did it become Nan Gongyin later? Wasn’t this a mess because of Nu Er?
Seeing that Xiao Xi’s face changed, Nu Er knew he was wrong. He wanted to frustrate Feng Lingran a little at the beginning, so that he would not be so arrogant. However, he didn’t expect Nan Gongyin to be a poisonous snake. Not only he poisoned her with Green Juice Voodoo, he was also holding onto the marriage that wasn’t considered authentic.
…
When Ji Yunxue returned to the bedroom, she buried her face into the bed and burst into tears.
Concubine Ji frowned as she walked over, “Xue’er, what happened to you? Who bullied you?”
“Noble concubine, miss cried when she came out of the East Palace.” The maid who was next to Ji Yunxue said.
“What’s going on?” Concubine Ji asked.
Before Ji Yunxue had time to stop, the maid had spoken out.
“Crown prince brought back a child, and that child called the crown prince as daddy.”
“Nan Gongyin secretly gave birth to a child outside?” Concubine Ji frowned and asked, “Did he bring the woman back?”
“He didn’t. The child said that her mother died shortly after she was born. She was brought up by her aunty until today. The crown prince brought the child’s aunty back. The woman has an enchanting face. ”
“How is that a big deal?” Concubine Ji smiled and comforted Ji Yunxue, “Xue’er, why are you jealous with a dead person? The emperor has promised me to let you marry Nan Gongyin as a concubine. Even if he has a child now, she is just an illegitimate child. It’s not her turn to be the princess yet.”
