Chapter 21: Act or Reality?

, urged anxiously: "Your Highness, this is not the time to be indecisive. We can wait, but Fu'er cannot.""Brother, I'm also your sister. Back then, when you made me gouge out my eyes for elder sister,...The palace maid walked several paths before stopping in front of a room: "Miss Xiao Er, hot water and fresh clothes have been prepared inside. Please feel free to use them, I will go back and report."

Thank you!

After the maid left, Xiao Yuge subconsciously sized up the room. From the outside, it seemed fine, maybe the secret was inside Since she was here, she might as well take a look.

"Miss, the water temperature is just right. I will serve you with a bath and change of clothes first." Qing Luo was innocent and guileless, so naturally she didn't suspect anything amiss. As soon as she entered, she tested the water temperature in the bathtub.

“Qing Luo, you guard outside. I’ll handle this.” Xiao Yu Ge pushed Qing Luo out instead of being embarrassed. The moment she entered the room, she felt something was wrong and feared that if a fight broke out, Qing Luo might get hurt. That’s why she asked him to stay outside.

"Yes, my servant will be waiting outside the door. If miss needs anything, just call and I will come in immediately to attend to you." Qing Luo obediently walked out and gently closed the door.

Xiao Yu's song had not bathed, but behind the screen quickly changed clothes, dressed neat and tidy after she looked at the incense burning on one side, unconsciously touched her nose, the corners of her lips involuntarily curled up: Hum! Calculated her before, how did not go to inquire about, she learned what, actually use such old-fashioned methods, really weak exploded.

She feigned a touch to her forehead, then let out a moan and collapsed to the ground!

Sure enough, after a while, a guard dressed man crawled out from the side. He walked towards Xiao Yuge who was lying on the ground with a smirk on his face: "Little beauty, big brother is here!" That bastard's voice, just listening to it made people want to beat him up. Xiao Yuge secretly clenched her fist.

But as soon as the guard had taken two steps, he suddenly felt a flash before his eyes and a sharp pain in his back. He then collapsed to the ground unconscious.

The newcomer sniffed the air, then waved his hand and knocked over the incense burner on the table. He quickly strode to Xiao Yuge's side, wanting to help her up, but as soon as he bent down, Xiao Yuge had already sat up. "Your Highness is quite nimble!"

"Are you alright" Qianting looked at her in disbelief. He had just stepped out for some fresh air, and then he saw the maidservant leading Xiao Yuge and the others around and around, which piqued his curiosity. He followed them curiously, and sure enough, something was wrong!

"Surprised Don't forget, I have medical skills. This little trick is still too tender in front of me." Xiao Yu Ge clapped his hands and stood up, but before he could stand firm, he felt a dizzy spell coming over him, his body swayed, and he almost fell.

“Didn't you say you were fine” Fortunately, Qian Tingxuan reacted quickly and supported her. Seeing her pale face, he subconsciously grasped her hand and frowned: “Your wound isn't fully healed, but your body shouldn't be this weak, what's wrong with you” Logically, she should have recovered quickly after taking his elixir of life, but it had been several days, and her body seemed to be getting worse.

“It’s fine!” Xiao Yu Ge was afraid he would notice something, so she quickly withdrew her hand: “This incense wouldn’t harm me even if I smelled it all day. It’s just that the Lotus Drunkenness was tampered with. Although I had taken a poison-repeling pill beforehand, I didn’t know what kind of poison they would use, so the pill could only temporarily suppress it and couldn’t cure it. Now, this love fragrance triggered the poison in my body prematurely, which is a bit troublesome...”

"You were poisoned What kind of poison was it Is there an antidote" At the sound of her saying she was poisoned, Qian Tingxuan was surprisingly anxious.

"It's just Honeysuckle Powder, not some deadly poison." Xiao Yuge said with a helpless expression. Honeysuckle Powder mixed with Love Fragrance, it was poison on top of poison. This harmful method might be cliche and old-fashioned, but it seemed to work quite well.

"Huaguan San That's..." Qian Tingxuan's face changed drastically. Even if he didn't understand medicine, just hearing the name was enough to make him guess.

"It's alright, I can concoct the antidote, just need to return to the Prime Minister's residence." To be honest, in this situation, she wasn't even sure if she could make it back to the Prime Minister's.

"This King will take you back to the Prime Minister's residence immediately!" Having said that, Qian Tingxuan was about to carry her away.

“Before I leave, I have to settle things here. Letting such a big character act alone here is not fair.” Xiao Yuge knew that someone had planned all this, just to ruin her reputation. She couldn't disappoint them too much, could she Besides, if she left like this now, those who came to watch the show later would definitely accuse her of plotting it all. At that time, it would be truly hard to defend herself.

In her past life, she had luckily escaped this tribulation, but it still damaged her reputation and became a thorn in her side. As a result, every time she appeared before Qian Si Chen, she was humble and desperate to prove herself excellent, which ultimately led her to be battered and bruised.

"What do you plan to do" Qian Tingxuan glanced at the guard sprawled on the ground, also catching the playful glint in her eyes.

Xiao Yu sang softly behind the door, gesturing to the two shadowy figures peering inside. "See Isn't this a companion" she whispered, then added, "My lord, shall we put on a show for them"

“Good!” Qian Tingxuan seemed to understand, holding her and pressing her onto the bed beside him. Seeing the panic that suddenly appeared in Xiao Yuge’s beautiful eyes, he smiled faintly and asked, “Can you call out”

"What's your name" Xiao Yu Ge blinked her beautiful eyes, looking completely puzzled.

"Call..." Qian Tingxuan paused, unable to help but chuckle softly, "I forgot you're still so young, you don't understand these things at all." Finishing his sentence, he lowered his head and kissed her lips directly.

"Ugh..." Xiao Yuge's eyes widened, instinctively wanting to push him away. However, he was too heavy, she couldn't push him off at all, only moaning and wriggling her body in protest.

"If you're going to act, do it well; otherwise, how will the fish take the bait" Qian Tingxuan left her lips and leaned closer to her ear, his slightly messy and thick hot breath, mingled with his deep and husky voice, lingered in her ear, making Xiao Yuge blush. She felt like she had been taken advantage of somehow.

Seeing that only one figure remained behind the door, he likely went to report back. Xiao Yuge whispered, "How accurate are your hidden weapons"

"This distance, a bullseye every time!" Qian Tingxuan said as he picked up a bead from the side and threw it at the figure. The figure fell with a sound.

"The play is over, yet you're not getting off!" Xiao Yu Ge saw that she had succeeded and immediately pushed away Qian Ting Xuan who was still on top of her. Dog man, he said they were acting, but ended up being for real. If she wasn't weaker than him, she would definitely give him a lesson!

"So ruthless, am I just a pawn to be used and discarded" Qian Tingxuan shrugged, jumped off the bed as well, and quickly pulled the person outside in. Afterward, they tossed both the guard and the maidservant onto the bed together.t out a cold snort, ripping the veil from her face and narrowed his eyes to assess her: "A little girl who hasn't even seen what a man's body looks like, dares to spout such nonsense here about curing...
