'He's such a bully rascal every time!'
Murong Ci was so angry that her heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys hurt.
Several times she almost exposed her martial arts skills to get rid of Murong Yu's restraint, but finally dispelled the idea.
'A small leak will sink a great ship.'
When he arrived at the Side Hall, Murong Yu waved back at the two Palace ladies in front of the Hall, and said coldly:
"No one is allowed to come in without the approval of this King."
She secretly thought,
'What on earth does he want to do?'
He pulled her straight to the bedroom, and she sternly stated her wishes,
"Prince Regent, this Prince is going to interrogate the assassin."
Every day the Palace people cleaned the Side Hall, but no one lived there.
He made her sit down on the couch, with his expression faint,
"Your Royal Highness got hit by the palm of the assassin, how does Your Highness feel?"
"It's okay, the internal organs are just a little bit painful."
Murong Ci said calmly, but she was in a state of chaos.
'Does he care about me, or does he want to take the opportunity to attack me?
Just now the Emperor Father was overwhelmed by the assassin's attack and fainted, so will he take this chance to eagerly attack me?'
Murong Yu suddenly clasped her slender wrist and touched her hand veins with his slender fingers, checking lightly with his dark and deep eyes.
Murong Ci almost pulled her hands away, but instantly understood his intentions, and her cheeks immediately got warmer and warmer, with a thin red color appearing.
'Could it be that he knows medicine?'
"If Your Highness' internal injuries are not diagnosed and treated in time, they will spread from their root and get worse."
He sat down beside her, frowning his eyebrows.
"Later, this Prince will summon an Imperial Physician to come for diagnosis and treatment, so the Prince Regent doesn't need to bother."
She perfectly concealed her anxiety and worries, stood up and tried to leave.
He had touched her wrist with his fingers just now, and the slight coldness was more like the gentle warmth of the human body...
The owner of those fingers was the handsome and domineering man, who had a rather ambiguous attitude towards her....
Yes...
His behavior was not what the Prince Regent should be treating her normally as the "Crown Prince", and her behavior as a "man" wasn't either, which was puzzling for her.
She didn't want to be alone with him.
However, not surprisingly, her wrist was clasped by him again.
Murong Yu said in a cold voice,
"The decoction prescribed by the Imperial Physician to Your Royal Highness needs to be taken for ten consecutive days for your internal injuries to heal."
Murong Ci felt that she was quite unlucky. The injury on her left arm was not healed yet.
Still, she was injured by the palm of another assassin today, injuring her internal organs this time.
"It's okay. If it takes ten days, then be it, as long as it's good medicine."
She struggled to get rid of his hands and finally got free.
"This Prince has sent people to invite Master Gu and Shen Zhiyan, the Ministers of the Dali Temple, to see the assassin first."
"Master Gu and Master Shen haven't arrived yet, so there's no hurry."
He said gently, and strongly pulled her to sit down,
"This king will heal Your Highness first."
"I don't dare to bother you, Prince Regent."
She hurriedly stood up.
'Who knows if he would pretend to heal my injuries with one hand, and smash my viscera with the other one in the middle, demanding my death!'
Murong Yu was a deeply concealed man, treacherous, cunning and cruel.
She had no guarantee that he wouldn't do that...
He sneered mockingly,
"Your Royal Highness, are you worried about losing your life to this King?"
Murong Ci's heart trembled at hearing herself put as the central issue, but she still didn't change her facial expression.
"The Prince Regent has worked hard for the court and for the Emperor Father, and his loyalty is a lesson to everyone in the court.
How can this Prince suspect that the Prince Regent has different intentions?"
"If that's the case,... Why doesn't Your Highness dare to be alone with this King?"
He laughed lightly and sarcastically.
"..."
She gritted her teeth again.
For a moment, she smiled brightly, with her shell teeth as delicate as pearls twinkling,
"Since it's the Prince Regent's kindness, this Prince will accept it."
In fact, she realized that if he really wanted to start a rebellion, there were more opportunities than this time.
She just didn't want to be alone with him...
She couldn't bear remembering those ambiguous situations of the past or for any other ambiguous things to happen again...
So she sat cross-legged with her back to him and relaxed.
Murong Yu stretched out his right palm, keeping a slight distance between his palm and her back, and the deep internal force turned into white energy from her back into her internal organs.
She felt a warm air flow in, connecting through the meridians of her internal power, and finally returning to her viscera...
The pain was relieved immediately, and her body was comfortable now.
She closed her eyes and emptied from everything.
