After passing through the book, Mr. Chief Assistant came to rely on me

At dawn, the imperial doctor finally arrived belatedly.

"Princess." After the imperial doctor entered the palace, he couldn't help but worry when he saw Su Xiaoxi lying on the bed looking sick.

Su Xiaoxi opened her eyes and glanced at the imperial doctor, then closed them again.

Su Xiaoxi's meaning was obvious. She was tired and didn't want to talk.

The imperial doctor hesitated for a moment and then said: "Princess, you are weak and should not work hard today. I still have some medicinal materials here. Princess, please remember to boil the medicine."

After Su Xiaoxi heard this, she turned over and faced the imperial doctor, obviously not appreciating it.

Seeing this, the imperial doctor paused and said, "If the princess is not willing to drink it, I can ask someone to change the medicinal ingredients."

Su Xiaoxi still looked too lazy to talk to the imperial doctor.

Seeing this, the imperial doctor sighed and left.

After the imperial doctor left, Su Xiaoxi immediately got up and went to find Cheng Shubai.

"Shubai." Su Xiaoxi called out, but there was no response, so she opened the door and went in.

The scene inside the house made Su Xiaoxi stunned. Cheng Shubai was sitting by the window at this time, his eyes were empty and he didn't know what he was looking at.

"Shubai!" Su Xiaoxi shouted.

Cheng Shubai came back to his senses and turned around. When his eyes fell on Su Xiaoxi, his expression was stiff.

Su Xiaoxi frowned and walked towards Cheng Shubai. Looking at the man in front of her, Su Xiaoxi suddenly felt strange.

"Tell me..." Su Xiaoxi reached out and caressed the side of Cheng Shubai's face, and said softly, "Tell me what happened last night?"

Cheng Shubai shook his head, "I don't remember."

"Really?" Su Xiaoxi didn't believe it, because Cheng Shubai's expression was too indifferent, as indifferent as if he had lost his soul.

Cheng Shubai nodded, "Yes."

Seeing this, Su Xiaoxi fell silent, Cheng Shubai lied.

"Shu Bai, our plan has to be moved ahead of schedule. The Beirong Kingdom is simply too arrogant!"

Su Xiaoxi was filled with indignation, while Cheng Shubai looked at Su Xiaoxi with love on his face. When he learned that Su Xiaoxi had been poisoned, he immediately became concerned.

He didn't know medical skills, so he could only take care of Su Xiaoxi as much as possible, hoping that Su Xiaoxi could recover.

Cheng Shubai's actions made Su Xiaoxi feel a little guilty. After all, her plan involved too many things. Cheng Shubai's behavior made her feel uneasy.

"Shu Bai, I've worked hard for you these days." Su Xiaoxi said, "You don't have to worry about me, just handle the affairs well. As for me..."

Su Xiaoxi hesitated to speak, but Cheng Shubai saw her attitude clearly.

Cheng Shubai held Su Xiaoxi's hand and said with deep endearment in his voice, "Xiaoyi, promise me to protect yourself."

As he spoke, Cheng Shubai's lips curved into a smile, but there were tears in his eyes.

At this moment, Su Xiaoxi seemed to see Cheng Shubai's mother-in-law. She looked really similar to Cheng Shubai.

"Shubai, don't cry. I promise, I will protect myself. Trust me." Su Xiaoxi held Cheng Shubai's hand tightly and spoke firmly.

She promised to explain the process, so she will definitely do it.

Cheng Shubai looked at Su Xiaoxi with a hint of relief in his eyes, "Okay."

"Xiao Xi, are you hungry? I ordered the imperial kitchen to prepare breakfast. Let's eat together."

Cheng Shubai stood up and pulled Su Xiaoxi outside.

"Okay, I happen to be hungry." Su Xiaoxi followed Cheng Shubai out of the dormitory.

The two of them came to the imperial garden together. The dishes in the imperial dining room had already been prepared and were all placed on the stone table.

During these days, apart from handling government affairs, Cheng Shubai stayed with Su Xiaoxi and personally served Su Xiaoxi every day.

Su Xiaoxi saw all this, but she didn't say anything. She wanted to give Cheng Shubai enough freedom.

"Xiao Xi, I specially asked the imperial chef to cook this shrimp soup for you. Try it."

Cheng Shubai scooped up a bowl of porridge and handed it to Su Xiaoxi with a smile on his face, as gentle as the warm sun in winter.

However, there was no warmth in those eyes, and they were so cold that it made people shiver.

Su Xiaoxi reached out and took the porridge bowl, lowered her head and tasted it carefully, "Yeah, not bad."

Cheng Shubai smiled slightly when he heard this, and took another spoonful to feed Su Xiaoxi.

Su Xiaoxi was eating, and occasionally raised her head to meet Cheng Shubai's eyes, with ambiguity in her eyes.

This scene looked particularly dazzling to the eyes of the palace maid serving in the distance.

How had their princess ever treated other men like this?

Not to mention that this princess is the princess of Dingguo appointed by His Majesty the Emperor. How could she be so imprudent?

Su Xiaoxi naturally noticed the looks the palace maids were looking at her, but she didn't take it seriously.

After finishing the food in the bowl, Su Xiaoxi stood up and said, "Shu Bai, I'm a little tired. I'm going to take a rest first."

Cheng Shubai nodded quickly when he heard this, "Well, Xiao Xi, go and have a rest. I'll guard this place for you."

"Okay." Su Xiaoxi smiled.

Su Xiaoxi really needed to rest. After struggling all night last night, she really couldn't hold on any longer.

As soon as Su Xiaoxi lay on the bed, Cheng Shubai walked in with medicine.

Seeing Cheng Shubai walk in with a bowl of dark medicine, Su Xiaoxi frowned, "What are you talking about?"

Su Xiaoxi asked, the taste was really not good.

"This is a good medicine for treating internal injuries. Drink it while it's hot." Cheng Shubai spoke in a gentle tone.

"Are you sure?" Su Xiaoxi was suspicious, always feeling that something was wrong.

"Drink it quickly, the efficacy of the medicine will be reduced when it cools down." Cheng Shubai urged.

When Su Xiaoxi saw this, she stopped delaying.

After drinking the medicine, Su Xiaoxi fell into a deep sleep. Su Xiaoxi's body became thinner and her face became pale.

Cheng Shubai looked at the unconscious Su Xiaoxi with a gloomy expression on his face.

Of course he knew that the poison in Su Xiaoxi's body was caused by Xue Ling, and he would not let her go!

"Princess, princess..."

"Are you awake?" As soon as Su Xiaoxi opened her eyes, she was disturbed by an anxious call.

Xun Sheng looked around and saw Cheng Yixiang standing nervously beside the bed, with a look of concern on his face.

"Yixiang, what's wrong?" Su Xiaoxi slowly sat up from the bed, her head still a little dizzy.

"Princess, you are finally awake, you scared me to death." Cheng Yixiang grabbed Su Xiaoxi's hand and shed tears excitedly, "Princess, please be okay, otherwise the young master will be so sad."

Looking at Cheng Yixiang's eyes that were red from crying, Su Xiaoxi smiled helplessly.

Although Cheng Yixiang said it tactfully, she knew that Cheng Yixiang might have misunderstood her relationship with Cheng Shubai.

Cheng Shubai didn't tell her at all about this matter.

Su Xiaoxi knew that Cheng Shubai was afraid that she would care about him, not forgive him, or even hate him.

"Yixiang, I'm fine, don't cry." Su Xiaoxi persuaded softly, not wanting to worry Cheng Yixiang.

"Yeah." Cheng Yixiang nodded.

Cheng Yixiang wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes while looking at Su Xiaoxi's face. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Su Xiaoxi was really fine.

"Go and get me some food, I want to eat roast duck." Su Xiaoxi ordered.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Yixiang immediately nodded in agreement, then exited the dormitory to order people to cook roast duck.

After Cheng Yixiang left, Su Xiaoxi picked up the cup on the side and rinsed her mouth, washed her hands and drank the tea in one gulp.

Then he stood up and walked to the dressing table. He picked up a wooden comb and pulled his hair into a bun. He inserted a phoenix wings hairpin and put on a new set of pink and white powder sent by Cheng Shubai.

After packing up, Su Xiaoxi walked out of the dormitory.

Cheng Shubai was standing outside, seemingly waiting for Su Xiaoxi. When he saw Su Xiaoxi appear, he quickly went to greet her.

"How are you? Do you feel better?" Cheng Shubai asked, with a look of concern on his face.

"Well, it's pretty good." Su Xiaoxi said, her eyes falling on the yard.

The peach blossom trees in the yard have withered, leaving a ruined scene.

Su Xiaoxi looked at it for a while, then turned to look at Cheng Shubai and said softly, "Shubai, I want to go to the border."

Cheng Shubai was stunned when he heard this, obviously not expecting Su Xiaoxi to say this suddenly.

"Why?" Cheng Shubai asked.

Su Xiaoxi raised her head and glanced at Cheng Shubai, then her eyes fell on the palace ladies not far away, "I want to drive out the Beirong army."

As she said that, Su Xiaoxi's eyes flashed with a hint of killing.

"Xiao Xi, don't be impulsive, it's not suitable for you." Cheng Shubai advised.

"I have to go!" Su Xiaoxi flatly refused.

"But the wind and sand over the border are fierce and the journey is difficult. If you go out, wouldn't it be..."

Cheng Shubai did not continue speaking, but his meaning was clear.

"Shu Bai, I can't let Daning Chao be put in danger." Su Xiaoxi looked directly into Cheng Shubai's eyes.

"Xiao Xi, I will handle this matter."

Cheng Shubai knew Su Xiaoxi's temperament. If he forced her to stay here, she would definitely make a big fuss.

"Ms. sir, I want to go." Su Xiaoxi was determined.

She has had enough of life in the capital, and she wants to go to the border to make a living.

Cheng Shubai sighed and finally did not stop her. Since Xiao Xi insisted on this, let her go.

"Xiao Xi, please promise me to be careful in everything." Cheng Shubai warned, he really didn't want Su Xiaoxi to take risks.

"I understand, husband, I will take care of myself." Su Xiaoxi promised, and then added, "I will definitely help you find the antidote."

"Thank you, Xiaoxi."

With that said, Cheng Shubai hugged Su Xiaoxi, "You can recover in peace and leave the rest to me."

"kindness."

"I will send secret guards to protect you. If anything goes wrong, send me a message."

"Okay." After Cheng Shubai left the dormitory, Su Xiaoxi stayed alone in the dormitory, still feeling confused.

She didn't know what happened during the time she was asleep and why she passed out.

Su Xiaoxi remembered clearly that after she woke up, her body was very weak and her whole body ached.

Princess Xueling poisoned herself, so she must have wanted to kill herself.

It's just that she didn't even notice what method she used.

Also, how on earth did she escape the searches of the guards and enter her room?

All of this is a mystery. The only thing that is certain is that Princess Xueling is not an ordinary person.

……

When night fell, Su Xiaoxi lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

As soon as she closed her eyes, many strange scenes appeared in her mind.

This feeling was like being in a nightmare, and suddenly there was a sound of tiny footsteps.

Su Xiaoxi opened her eyes instantly, then listened carefully. The footsteps gradually got closer and finally stopped at the door.

Su Xiaoxi held her breath and concentrated, ready to attack at any time, and sure enough, the door was soon pushed open.

A tall figure walked into the room, and through the moonlight, Su Xiaoxi saw who it was—Bei Mo!

Looking at the familiar face in front of her, Su Xiaoxi frowned, "Beimo, what are you doing here?" Su Xiaoxi asked.

She hated this man so much, how could he dare to appear in front of her?

"You're awake!" Beimo said, staring at Su Xiaoxi with burning eyes.

"What are you doing here?" Su Xiaoxi said coldly.

"Haha, I just came to see if you are dead." Bei Mo smiled evilly, with a hint of ridicule.

Su Xiaoxi was furious when she heard Bei Mo's words, "My death has nothing to do with you."

"Su Xiaoxi, I'm warning you, if you dare to play any tricks again, don't blame me for being rude." Bei Mo's tone suddenly became cold, and his whole person exuded a strong aura of hostility.

"What can you do to me?" Su Xiaoxi sneered.

She, Su Xiaoxi, just wants to play, what can Beimo do to her?

Bei Mo really couldn't deal with Su Xiaoxi, because she didn't take Bei Mo seriously at all now.

Seeing Su Xiaoxi's fearless look, Bei Mo felt an inexplicable irritation in his heart.

"Are you forcing me to be rude to you?" Bei Mo said coldly, a pair of obsidian eyes gleaming with cold light.

"I want to see why you are so rude to me?" Su Xiaoxi also refused to give in.

"Haha, do you really think I don't dare to do something to you?" As he said that, Beimo pinched Su Xiaoxi's neck, with bloodlust in his eyes.

Su Xiaoxi was pinched by the neck, and her face turned red immediately.

"You don't dare." Su Xiaoxi gritted her teeth and spit out three words.

Bei Mo was startled, then he let go of Su Xiaoxi's neck, and the corners of his mouth curved in an evil way, "Really? You can try it."

"Hmph!" Su Xiaoxi snorted coldly, "Beimo, don't think that because you are the emperor, I won't dare to touch you! You look so much like your mother!"

Although Bei Mo choked her, Su Xiaoxi still refused to be outdone.

Beimo looked at Su Xiaoxi's stubborn look and felt even more upset, "Get out!"

"Beimo, you don't deserve to mention my mother!" Su Xiaoxi scolded angrily.

"Hmph!" Bei Mo shouted coldly, with murderous intent in his eyes, "Okay, you go, I'll count to three, if you don't leave, I'll have you thrown out."

"Beimo, what do you think I am! A dog?"

Bei Mo stepped forward, reached out and grabbed Su Xiaoxi's arm and pulled it out. The force was so strong that cold sweat broke out on Su Xiaoxi's forehead.

"roll!"

An extremely cold voice escaped from Bei Mo's throat.

"Beimo!" Su Xiaoxi struggled and shouted, but Beimo didn't care at all and dragged Su Xiaoxi out of the room.

Outside the dormitory, Su Xiaoxi was thrown to the ground. Su Xiaoxi rubbed her shoulders and glared at Beimo angrily.

This time she finally saw Bei Mo clearly, he was like a mad dog.

"Beimo, let's wait and see!"

After saying such cruel words, Su Xiaoxi immediately ordered people to arrest Bei Mo. The prince of Beirong actually came to Daning Dynasty privately, and she was naturally very angry.
