Nangong Chen then left with peace of mind.

At this time, Su Xiaoxi stayed in Concubine Ning's palace.

At this time, Concubine Ning was sitting on a chair, holding her chin in her hands, looking obsessively at the background where Nangong Chen left.

"Are you in love with the emperor?" Su Xiaoxi knelt down beside her, began to observe Concubine Ning's pulse, and inserted a silver needle into the girl's wrist.

Concubine Ning was frightened by the sudden movement and screamed, panicking.

"Shh..." Su Xiaoxi immediately made a silencing gesture.

Concubine Ning immediately covered her mouth and stared at Su Xiaoxi warily.

However, the more she did this, the more she attracted Su Xiaoxi's attention.

"Ms. Concubine Ning, are you trying to cover yourself up like this?" Su Xiaoxi smiled and was not affected by Concubine Ning's reaction at all.

"Who, who said I fell in love with him?" Concubine Ning denied it flatly, "We are not familiar with each other, how can we talk about whether we like him or not?"

Seeing the embarrassment on Concubine Ning's face, Su Xiaoxi couldn't help laughing.

Although Concubine Ning has a weird personality, she is not annoying.

Moreover, her sixth sense for Concubine Ning is quite keen.

If she hadn't been a member of the royal family, maybe she would have become his friend.

"Really? Concubine Ning, you know, you can't hide your love for someone."

Su Xiaoxi looked at Concubine Ning with a smile, without blinking.

But Concubine Ning did not dare to look directly at Su Xiaoxi, her eyes wandered.

Su Xiaoxi understood clearly.

It seems that Concubine Ning also knows which one she likes!

"Concubine Ning, since you already know your thoughts about the emperor, why don't you fight for it?" Su Xiaoxi continued to ask.

Concubine Ning was speechless when asked this question and could only shake her head blankly.

"Or would you rather die alone all your life?"

"I, I just want to be quiet." Concubine Ning lowered her head and murmured.

quietly...

"Ha, do you think your father doesn't know your thoughts?" Su Xiaoxi smiled, her tone flat but with a hint of sarcasm.

"He knows?" Concubine Ning suddenly raised her head and looked at Su Xiaoxi, surprise flashing in her eyes.

Does the emperor know her thoughts?

How can this be?

She never expressed it, so how could the emperor know?

"Concubine Ning, my father is a hero. He knows how to appreciate beauty, and he also knows what size to measure, so you don't have to belittle yourself. He understands your heart." Su Xiaoxi persuaded, "If you want to get a chance, do it as soon as possible. If it's too late, I'm afraid my father will be snatched away by other concubines. At that time, you won't have anywhere to cry."

Su Xiaoxi said this without any scruples, and could even be said to be thorny, but after hearing this, Concubine Ning seemed to be grabbing at a life-saving straw, pulling Su Xiaoxi tightly, and asked eagerly: "Will the emperor like me? What does he like about me?"

"Concubine Ning, you are a smart person. You should be able to think of these things yourself." Su Xiaoxi said as she stretched out her finger to poke Concubine Ning's chest, then withdrew her hand.

Concubine Ning looked at the place where Su Xiaoxi had touched her, and she was in a daze.

Su Xiaoxi did not disturb Concubine Ning's silence, but silently applied acupuncture to Concubine Ning. Concubine Ning was also a kind person and should not be in her current situation.

After a long while, Su Xiaoxi put away the silver needle and said to Concubine Ning, "Concubine Ning, your diet must be supplemented with nutrients these days so that you can recover faster."

Concubine Ning still didn't speak, but Su Xiaoxi didn't mind, stood up and walked outside.

As soon as Su Xiaoxi walked to the door, she met a group of imperial doctors rushing towards her.

The leading physician was none other than Imperial Physician Li who was beside Nangong Chen.

After Dr. Li saluted, he asked Su Xiaoxi, "Your Highness, Concubine Ning, is she awake?"

Su Xiaoxi nodded.

Doctor Li breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "Your Highness, how is Concubine Ning doing now?"

"Concubine Ning is out of danger. As long as she is treated properly, she will recover soon." Su Xiaoxi answered simply.

Upon hearing this, Dr. Li took a long breath and said, "This is the best."

After saying that, he gave Su Xiaoxi a few more words and then left.

Su Xiaoxi watched Doctor Li disappear, and the corners of her lips curved.

This time, Concubine Ning and the Emperor shouldn’t have to worry, right?

Looking back at Concubine Ning's closed door, Su Xiaoxi sighed deeply.

Forget it, since she helped Concubine Ning, she was repaying the favor for her mother-in-law!

When Su Xiaoxi left, Concubine Ning was still lying on the bed.

Looking at Su Xiaoxi's leaving figure, Concubine Ning fell into deep thought.

She likes the emperor, but the emperor has never told her that he likes her, and he is even stingy about looking at her. How can she dare to hope!

Moreover, she is now a disabled person, and no matter how hard she tries, it will probably be in vain.

"Princess, you shouldn't say that to Concubine Ning. It would be terrible if she misunderstood." Yun Shang reminded Su Xiaoxi from behind.

Yun Shang always felt that Concubine Ning was a little strange.

"She's not that fragile. I don't need to deliberately say anything."

"But Concubine Ning is a proud person, and saying this will embarrass her." Yun Shang frowned, disagreeing with what Su Xiaoxi said.

However, Su Xiaoxi didn't take Yun Shang's words to heart at all.

She said that just to let Concubine Ning know that in this harem, if she did not fight for it, the command would become a stepping stone for others.

After Su Xiaoxi left, Concubine Ning fell into deep thought.

She didn't know whether Su Xiaoxi had said that on purpose, but Su Xiaoxi's words were indeed lingering in her mind and could not be dissipated.

At this time, Concubine Ning suddenly remembered that the emperor came to chat with her some time ago.

The emperor had told her that she was his most important woman and the only woman he cared about.

He will always protect her.

This sentence, like a curse, kept lingering in Concubine Ning's ears.

Concubine Ning's originally pale face gradually turned crimson.

She didn't believe that the emperor would treat her like this, but if they weren't in love, why would the emperor do this?

"Concubine Ning, my servant has made some soup for you. Drink it and have a good rest. I guarantee that your body will recover soon."

At this time, Cuiping walked into the house with a medicine bowl.

Upon seeing this, Concubine Ning's eyes flashed with tears. Her appearance made Cuiping feel extremely distressed.

"Empress, what's wrong with you? Is the wound painful?" Cuiping asked anxiously.

Concubine Ning hummed softly, then buried her head on her knees and sobbed. Seeing her master's appearance, Cuiping couldn't help but feel sad.

"Don't be sad, your Majesty. The Emperor will definitely send an imperial doctor to treat you." Cuiping could only comfort Concubine Ning in this way.

Concubine Ning smiled bitterly. How could the imperial doctor see any clues from her appearance?
