Fu Yunqiu left quickly, but Ningxiang stayed, looking at Xiao Langyan longingly.
"Your Majesty, the road ahead is dark. Can you help escort me for a while?"
However, Xiao Langyan didn't know why he was angry, and he coldly scolded: "Get out!"
Ningxiang was stunned, as if she had been slapped. In the past, when she was with Fu Yunqiu, Xiao Langyan's attitude towards her was not good, but he had never been so harsh.
Fu Yunqiu hadn't gone far, and when he heard the curse, he turned around quickly and grabbed Ningxiang's hand with tears in his eyes.
"We should be wise and stop causing trouble to the prince. Let's go back to Shanglin Palace."
Seeing their master and servant, they left without leaving their homes.
Shen Dingzhu gathered her clothes and lowered her voice: "Does the prince think it is inconvenient to send her back? There are many spies in the palace. If the prince wants, I can accompany you to send her back."
Xiao Langyan's deep and cold eyes immediately turned to Shen Dingzhu.
"What did you say?" These words seemed to be squeezed out from the tips of the teeth, with a hint of bitter displeasure.
Shen Dingzhu licked her lips, aware of his emotions, and she said innocently: "I...what did I say wrong? It's freezing cold, and it's really inappropriate for Miss Fu to go back alone."
Xiao Langyan smiled coldly. Suddenly, he reached out and grabbed Shen Dingzhu's collar and pulled her directly into his arms.
A strong arm tightly wrapped around her waist.
"Shen Dingzhu," Xiao Langyan gritted his teeth, and his cold eyes looked like two balls of fire dancing because of the swaying lantern beside him, "I never knew that you are such a generous and considerate person. .”
"What is your purpose in pushing me to Fu Yunqiu again and again?"
This question made Shen Dingzhu stunned.
Her eyelashes trembled like restless butterflies, and Xiao Langyan's cold white and slightly angry face was reflected in her dark pupils.
"Your Majesty... I have always been in your favor and want to help you get closer to Miss Fu. Isn't this something that I discussed with the Prince when I entered the house?"
"Otherwise, besides this, I don't know how else I can repay the prince."
After Xiao Langyan heard this, the sneer on his thin lips turned even darker than before.
"Your reward is to remind me again and again to take care of other women? You are very generous and very presumptuous!"
His arms gradually tightened, and Shen Dingzhu was forced to cling tightly to him, struggling twice uncomfortably.
"Your Majesty!" Her soft voice suddenly rose. She wanted to get angry, but then she remembered that the guards were not far away, so she could only lower her voice in aggrieved tone, "I'm in pain, Your Majesty, please let go."
The cold wind blowing through the plum forest has already frozen Shen Dingzhu to the point where her fingertips are cold.
At this moment, the ends of her eyes were bright red, making her look even more pitiful.
Xiao Langyan suddenly let go of her, his thin eyes full of warning: "From now on, if it's about Fu Yunqiu, you should stay away from it, let alone help him!"
Shen Dingzhu's thin figure stood in the flickering light.
She held back her hair with her bare hands and nodded silently: "I understand."
Just don't care, Shen Dingzhu can save his energy.
Xiao Langyan looked at her coldly: "I didn't ask you if you had taken the medicine just now, why did you lie to me and say you did?"
Shen Dingzhu raised her eyes and was very surprised: "I really ate it, but the prince didn't believe it. He went back to the house and asked Shen Bi. The ghost doctor specifically told her to supervise my concubine to take it every day, every time."
Xiao Langyan scolded angrily in a low voice: "Who said it was prescribed by a ghost doctor? What I am asking you is..."
Before he finished speaking, his throat rolled twice, and the anger in his eyes dissipated for some reason.
In the end, Xiao Langyan rolled up his sleeves and said: "It's useless!"
Shen Dingzhu blinked her round eyes, watched his back go away, and rubbed her frozen earlobes in confusion.
"Is he talking about himself or me?"
At this time, Xiao Langyan, who was in front, realized that Shen Dingzhu had not followed, so he turned back and said coldly: "If you don't leave, you will stand here all night."
Shen Dingzhu quickly picked up her skirt and caught up with him.
Along the way, Xiao Langyan didn't speak to her again. When they reached the fork in the road to leave the palace, Xiao Langyan pushed Shen Dingzhu in the direction of the palace maid.
"You go back home." His tone was cold.
Shen Dingzhu looked at him: "Isn't the prince going back with his concubine?"
Xiao Langyan looked at her angrily and said seriously: "I won't come back, I'm busy."
After saying that, he turned around and left, the corners of his black cloak drawing an icy arc.
Seeing that Xiao Langyan didn't even look back, Shen Dingzhu guessed that he must be looking for an opportunity to coax Fu Yunqiu.
In this case, she didn't take it to heart.
Early the next morning, on the way to the palace, Imperial Physician Cen was kidnapped before he could even get off the sedan chair.
In the dim room, Chen Heng took off the sack on Imperial Physician Cen's head and tore off the sackcloth from his mouth.
Doctor Cen was frightened and sweating profusely. When he saw Xiao Langyan sitting in the room with insufficient light, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your Majesty, it's you. If you have anything to do with me, just ask someone to tell me. Why bother to mobilize so many troops? Wei Chen thought that the Queen had discovered the clue and wanted to give Wei Chen..."
As he spoke, his voice trembled with fear, and he knelt on the ground tremblingly.
Xiao Langyan's eyes were gloomy, and half of his cold and handsome face was illuminated by a ray of sunlight outside the window, which made his eyes even more dark.
"Where did you go with the prescription I asked you to prescribe?"
Imperial Physician Cen was startled and thought about it for a moment: "It nourishes the blood and calms the nerves? That day, Wei Chen saw Miss Fu coming to the Imperial Hospital, so he gave it to her too."
"Bastard!" Chen Heng took a step forward and kicked Imperial Doctor Cen down.
Imperial Doctor Cen's whole body ached and he was still frightened. He didn't care to shout and got up quickly: "Your Majesty, Wei Chen... What did Wei Chen do wrong?"
Xiao Langyan's hands were placed on his knees, and the white jade ring in his thumb was as cold as his eyes.
"I hate having people around me who make decisions without authorization. I asked you to give the prescription to Xu Shou, but you gave it to Fu Yunqiu on your own."
"Chen Heng is so courageous that he dares to be the master of this king. Destroy him and throw his body into the river." Xiao Langyan ordered. For him, killing someone was as simple as tearing a page of a book.
Imperial Physician Cen was so frightened that he howled like ghosts and wolves, and avoided Chen Heng's clamping hand.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please calm down and let Weichen explain." Imperial Doctor Cen broke out in cold sweat on his forehead. "Weichen always thought that His Highness and Miss Fu were in love, and this prescription should also be given to her, so..."
When he said this, he realized the problem and became even more frightened.
Imperial Physician Cen kept kowtowing and begging for mercy: "Wei Chen is wrong! Wei Chen was blinded by lard and misunderstood the prince's intentions. He didn't know that the prince's heart belonged to another pink beauty. Please forgive me!"
Xiao Langyan's thin lips parted slightly: "I would like to ask you, how many concubines do I have in my house?"
Doctor Cen replied in shock: "Just... just Aunt Shen."
Xiao Langyan nodded, and his voice became even lower and ruthless: "Please remember clearly that I, Shen Dingzhu, is a woman now, and if I want to give something to her, I will also give it to her."
Imperial Physician Cen decisively expressed his loyalty: "Wei Chen understands. As soon as Wei Chen returns to Tai Hospital, he will refill the prescription and send it to Eunuch Xu. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, there will definitely be no problems this time!"
Xiao Langyan hesitated for a moment and then sneered.
"Give it to her? That's all." This stupid woman doesn't deserve it.
The fourteenth day of the first lunar month.
Xiao Langyan didn't return home for several days, or he came back in the middle of the night. When Shen Dingzhu got up in the morning, he had already entered the palace again.
She didn't know what he was angry about, so she could only do some embroidery to pass the time.
Spring will begin after the new year, and Shen Dingzhu plans to make another pair of shoes for Xiao Langyan.
Early that morning, as soon as she got up, Shen Bi ran in with a happy face.
"Master, Master, look who's coming!"
