His patience was at its limit, and a layer of frost seemed to condense in the air.

"I didn't lie to you!" Facing his murderous aura, Bai Prajna hurriedly explained, "The blood poison was recently developed by me, and I didn't plan to make an antidote at all, so there really is no antidote."

The air froze instantly, and it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

The depressing atmosphere is suffocating!

Xiao Zhan stared at Bai Prajna expressionlessly, his eyes were so deep that it was impossible to guess what he was thinking.

Bai Prajna felt uncomfortable being stared at. What on earth did this guy want to do?

The feeling of uneasiness became more intense as he watched.

"Hmph." A meaningful low laugh broke the silence. Xiao Zhan took a step forward, bent his knees and squatted, looking at Bai Prajna at eye level.

The big hand suddenly grabbed her chin with such force that she couldn't help but open her mouth and scream in pain.

"Uh! Ahem!"

Several unknown objects were forced into her mouth and almost got stuck in her throat. Bai Prajna coughed until her face turned red!

"What did you give me to eat?" After finally catching her breath, Bai Prajna asked in shock.

"An eye for an eye, since Bai Fangzhu poisoned Jiang Xue, I will naturally seek justice for Jiang Xue.

The poison you were given is from the Qian Kingdom. I don't know exactly what it is. I'm afraid Jiang Xue is the only one in the whole of Beiling who can cure it. If Lord Bai wants to stay alive, go find Jiang Xue and ask for a cure!"

"You are so despicable!" Bai Prajna scolded.

He was telling her that if anything happened to Jiang Xueruo, she would not be able to survive alone!

He was forcing her to detoxify Jiang Xue! This man had tied her fate to Jiang Xue's in this way!

"I accept the 'praise' from Master Bai Fang." Xiao Zhan sneered, "Instead of arguing with me, Master Bai Fang should hurry up and research the antidote. This is the way to save yourself, don't you think?

Qingfeng, Bai Fangzhu has a leg injury, you have to take the trouble to send her back. Remember, go through the back door and don't let anyone find out. "

"Yes, sir!" Qing Feng responded and took Bai Prajna from Xiaochun.

"What happened?" Jiang Xue woke up at some point and came over following the sound.

I just happened to witness Qingfeng taking Bai Prajna away.

When she stepped into the house, a strong smell of blood mixed with the shocking bloodstain on the ground made her frown.

"Why did you come out? Didn't I tell you to rest in peace?" Xiao Zhan noticed her discomfort and considerately led her to the garden, away from the unpleasant smell.

"I couldn't fall asleep after waking up, so I thought about walking around." Jiang Xue said softly.

"The one just now was Bai Banruo, what did you do to her?" Looking at the bloodstains on the ground, Jiang Xue guessed that Bai Banruo had suffered a lot at his hands.

"She tried to seduce me, so I taught her a lesson for you." Xiao Zhan said righteously, and this answer made Jiang Xue couldn't help laughing.

"That's really hard for you, Your Highness." She replied jokingly, knowing full well that he always tried to make her happy in this way and didn't want to make her worry too much.

"But since you caught her, why did you let her go?" After all, Bai Banruo is Xiao Li's person, wouldn't it be more useful to keep her?

"Leaving her here will do more harm than good." Xiao Zhan explained, "First, she is Xiao Li's new favorite now. Her disappearance will alert Xiao Li. The spring hunt is coming soon, so we should not alert him.

Second, the remnants of the Prajna Square have not been cleared out, and if she stays here, she will cause trouble. If Xiao Yan finds out, he will have a pretext to deal with us; third, you suffered because of her blood poison, so I naturally want her to experience the power of the poison. "

Jiang Xue could cure the poison he had put on Bai Banruo. Keeping her by his side would be like giving her a chance to escape punishment, which was absolutely unacceptable. He wanted Bai Banruo to pay back double for the suffering Jiang Xue had endured. Tonight, she had something to suffer!

Jiang Xue felt a warm current in her heart as she felt the love she deeply loved was protecting her. This man moved her time and again, and she couldn't help but stand on tiptoe and kiss him lightly on the cheek, actively showing this intimate gesture.

Faced with her active approach, Xiao Zhan's face was filled with a happy smile.

He leaned down slightly, put his other cheek close to hers, and said with a hint of mischief: "It has to be treated fairly."

"You are so unruly." Jiang Xue smiled and patted his chest gently.

"Are you not satisfied with this treatment?" He held her slightly cold hand, and his dark and deep eyes met her bright eyes. At that moment, she seemed to be sucked into a bottomless vortex of tenderness.

"Satisfied." She parted her red lips and expressed her feelings firmly and sincerely.

This sentence became the most touching confession Xiao Zhan had ever heard in his life. The previous jokes and playfulness faded away in an instant. He stared into her eyes that sparkled like stars, a sincere smile rose at the corners of his mouth, and a low and emotional voice slowly flowed: "Me too."

Ten days later, the much-anticipated Spring Festival Games finally kicked off.

The Beiling Palace was bustling with activity once again.

Under Xiao Zhan's careful arrangement, the Spring Meeting went on in an orderly manner.

Civil and military officials entered and took their seats in an orderly manner, and royal relatives and nobles also came in droves.

The concubines in the palace dressed up carefully and sat in their respective seats, anxiously waiting for the emperor's arrival.

"Fourth sister-in-law, this way!"

The Ninth Princess Xiao Gui sat side by side with Lu Linyi and waved to Jiang Xue who had just entered the venue.

Jiang Xue smiled calmly and walked towards them slowly.

Along the way, her elegant temperament and peerless beauty attracted countless gazes, and many descendants of famous families cast admiring glances at her.

"Your Highness Prince Gong is so lucky to marry such a beautiful and talented woman!"

"Ah, if my wife can be as beautiful as Princess Changle in the future, I will be satisfied!"

The words of praise from these young men from aristocratic families drifted in the wind. Jiang Xue heard them but did not take them to heart.

In her opinion, these people were just trying their best to curry favor with Xiao Zhan because they saw that he was in favor.

These words are just superficial. Just listen to them and don't take them to heart.

"Ninth Princess, Sister Linyi."

Jiang Xue spoke as she sat down next to Xiao Gui and Lu Linyi.

"Jiang Xue, I haven't seen you for a long time. You seem to have lost some weight."

Lu Linyi looked at her already slender shoulders, which seemed even thinner, and couldn't help feeling worried.

Could it be that Prince Gong didn't treat her well enough?

"Sister, you're worrying too much. Yun Che treats me very well, but I haven't been feeling well recently, so I've lost some weight."

Jiang Xue didn't want Lu Linyi to worry, so she concealed the fact that she was poisoned by the blood, claiming that she was not feeling well.

"Are you feeling unwell? Is it serious? Do you want to call a royal physician to take a look?" Lu Linyi asked in rapid succession, his hand tightly holding Jiang Xue's.

Her hands were slightly cold and her face was not rosy enough. This physical sensation was not normal in early spring.

"Don't worry, sister. I'm a doctor myself. How can I not know my own condition?"

Jiang Xue gently patted the back of Lu Linyi's hand and gave her a reassuring smile.
