Everything seems to be moving in a positive direction.
Just as Zhan Sijing was about to confirm his thoughts with Ye Qingwu, he saw Ye Qingwu suddenly stand up.
"Your Highness, please rest well. I will come to see you later."
Ye Qingwu withdrew her hand from Zhan Sijing's; she needed to return to the courtyard to check on the bead's condition.
"Does it really have to be later?"
In the instant the hand was pulled away, Zhan Sijing felt an emptiness where he was holding on, and his tone was filled with intense reluctance.
"what?"
Upon hearing these words, Ye Qingwu seemed to doubt whether she had misheard something, otherwise why would Zhan Sijing's voice sound a little aggrieved?
Especially the way he looked at her, as if he were looking at some unfaithful man.
Ye Qingwu felt a mix of emotions as she had this thought.
Following up on Zhan Sijing's earlier words, he asked, "Otherwise, when would Your Highness like to meet?"
"Is it feasible now?"
Ye Qingwu was now certain that her earlier thought had not come out of thin air.
This Zhan Sijing is acting like a child, throwing a tantrum.
Seeing Zhan Sijing, who is usually composed in front of others, reveal another side of himself to her, and he was incredibly childish.
Ye Qingwu couldn't help but feel a sense of novelty.
"Your Highness, what you should do now is rest well and not think about anything."
"Besides, you're alright now, aren't you?"
After Ye Qingwu said that, Zhan Sijing suddenly clutched his chest and said, "Your Highness, I feel a little uncomfortable here."
"where?"
Ye Qingwu saw through Zhan Sijing's act at a glance, but still went along with his words.
She curled her lips into a smile, looking at Zhan Sijing with a mocking gaze, and leaned forward slightly as she spoke.
"Your Highness, why don't you point it out and let me see?"
Faced with Ye Qingwu's sudden approach, Zhan Sijing paused, his hand covering his chest. His heart felt like it was about to jump out of his chest, and an inexplicable tension swept through his entire body.
Her face instantly turned bright red, and Ye Qingwu's eyes were full of surprise.
Zhan Sijing's face was as red as an apple, and I really wanted to pinch it.
In fact, Ye Qingwu did just that; she reached out and gently poked Zhan Sijing's cheek with her finger.
"Your Highness, don't forget that I know your situation all too well."
"These things can't fool me."
Ye Qingwu smiled, and then the distance between them returned to normal.
"Honey, I told you I'd come later."
Zhan Sijing looked over and saw Ye Qingwu waving at him.
The words "be good" she had said to me kept echoing in my mind.
For a moment, Zhan Sijing felt dazed, as if Ye Qingwu was coaxing him like a child.
Ye Qingwu was in a good mood after leaving the house. Who wouldn't like a soft, shy, and handsome man?
"Your Highness, the Prince..."
Leng Feng, who was guarding outside the courtyard, saw Ye Qingwu come out and hurriedly asked her questions.
Ye Qingwu glanced at Leng Feng, even though she had explained the situation before entering the house.
But Leng Feng's temperament... Ye Qingwu lowered her eyes.
However, it's understandable that he couldn't completely relax after such a situation.
Anyone would have panicked in Zhan Sijing's situation at that time.
"The prince has woken up, but he is currently weak. If there is nothing else, there is no need to go in and disturb him."
Ye Qingwu said to Leng Feng.
Upon hearing from Ye Qingwu that his master had regained consciousness, Leng Feng nodded hurriedly.
"Please rest assured, Your Highness."
Ye Qingwu nodded slightly and headed towards her courtyard.
Leng Feng watched Ye Qingwu's departing figure, feeling both relieved and incredibly at ease.
This time, they were all rescued from danger thanks to the princess.
"Cold wind."
As Leng Feng was reflecting on what had happened, he heard a call coming from inside the house.
Leng Feng was taken aback. Remembering Ye Qingwu's words that the prince had woken up, he quickly went into the house.
"Your subordinate greets Your Highness."
As the cold wind blew into the room, Zhan Sijing was already sitting at the table.
Unlike Ye Qingwu's expression, Zhan Sijing's expression was cold, and his face was indifferent.
He glanced indifferently at the cold wind and asked, "How's the situation in the village?"
"Your Highness, after the black aura disappeared, the villagers in those villages were only in a coma. The Minister of the Court of Judicial Review and the Seventh Prince have already found doctors to treat them."
"With them handling the aftermath, there shouldn't be any major problems. However, during this process, another person also appeared in that village."
Zhan Sijing looked over, waiting for Leng Feng to say what he would say next.
"She is the princess's former half-sister."
Upon hearing Leng Feng's words, Zhan Sijing's gaze instantly turned cold and sharp.
"It's Ye Qingzhu again."
"Your Highness, I find this Ye Qingzhu quite strange. Every time she sees the Princess, she looks at her as if she were her mortal enemy."
"But the princess had no intention of eliminating any future troubles."
This has always been a source of confusion for Leng Feng. If the princess cares about her half-sister, then why would she sever ties with the Duke's mansion?
Besides, someone who's always looking for trouble has nothing to care about.
Unable to understand, Leng Feng could only attribute it all to the princess being too kind.
Zhan Sijing's gaze was cold. "Since the princess kept her alive, she must have her reasons for doing so. However, you need to find a way to let the palace know about the black aura in the village."
"Especially the part related to Ye Qingzhu."
"Besides the palace and Your Highness, I believe the Duke's Mansion is also to blame."
"Should we report this as well?"
Zhan Sijing nodded.
"Just be careful to exercise restraint in this matter. I don't want people to know that I have the ability to resolve evil energy, especially since that person is coming back."
Leng Feng's expression changed, filled with deep shock.
"But I heard that sir will not emerge from seclusion for another six months. Could the sudden change of plans be due to the curse?"
Zhan Sijing responded.
With Ye Qingwu's abilities, that person will definitely notice something.
This will inevitably drag her into that conflict.
For so many years, although he held the position of regent, he used his poor health as an excuse to be indifferent to both external affairs and court matters.
Even so, those people in the palace did not let their guard down and wanted to press the issue further.
Because of a curse, he knew his days were numbered, and he didn't care what they wanted to do.
But now that Ye Qingwu is here, he absolutely will not allow her to suffer any harm because of him.
Even if it costs me my life!
"Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will protect the Princess's safety and ensure she is not threatened."
Meanwhile, Ye Qingwu had already returned to the courtyard. After entering the house, her consciousness entered the space.
But the moment Ye Qingwu entered the space, she was once again stunned by the scene before her.
Could it be that the appearance of the bead caused her space to upgrade once again?!
