"Yun Che is fine, thank you for your concern." Jiang Xue raised her head and replied.

"Since he is in good condition, considering Xiao Zhan's possessiveness towards you, how could he allow you to meet other men alone?" Chu Feimo took one hand off the table, and his fingers tapped lightly on the table, making a sound.

“Don’t lump Yun Che in with other men. A strong possessive desire often means inner emptiness and inferiority, doesn’t it?” Jiang Xue retorted calmly.

Did he really think she was the kind of girl who could be fooled by a few sweet words? It was ridiculous! Jiang Xue sneered in her heart and drank the glass in one gulp.

Chu Feimo's face became even gloomier after hearing this. How dare this woman say that he was empty inside and had low self-esteem? As the prince of Xiyong, with a prominent position, what reason did he have to feel low self-esteem?

"That's enough. It's such a waste of time to say so many useless words to His Highness. It seems that His Highness does not intend to agree to Changle's request." She said calmly.

"Once I decide to get something, I will never let it go easily." Chu Feimo said firmly.

"Then it seems that we have no other choice between us." Jiang Xue said in a low voice, and when she stood up, a faint fragrance drifted towards Chu Feimo.

Suddenly, Chu Feimo felt dizzy.

"You actually drugged me?" Realizing that the situation was not good, Chu Feimo immediately tried to condense his internal strength, but found that he could not gather his strength.

"Don't waste your energy. Your Highness's internal energy has been almost dispersed by the drugs."

Jiang Xue looked at the incense burner coldly. From the moment Chu Feimo stepped into the room, the poison in the incense had quietly seeped into his body.

"Antidote." Chu Feimo followed her gaze towards the incense burner and immediately understood the source of the toxin. He quickly covered his mouth and nose to avoid inhaling more.

"It's too late, Your Highness. The drug has already penetrated deep into your bloodstream during our conversation. Covering your mouth and nose will no longer help."

Jiang Xue squatted down and looked directly at Chu Feimo, "It's easy to get the antidote. Just exchange it with the antidote for Yun Che's poison."

"Don't try to succeed."

"The same applies to Your Highness. Time is running out and this poison is very powerful. If you don't want to lose all your martial arts skills or even die, Your Highness had better make a decision quickly."

As she spoke, she leisurely poured a glass of wine and gently wiped the rim of the glass.

"I am here to await your Highness's reply."

After several failed attempts to restore his internal strength, Chu Feimo finally realized that what Jiang Xue said was true. In desperation, he took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and placed it on the table.

"As expected, Qu Shang did give you the antidote."

Jiang Xue picked up the porcelain bottle, gently opened the lid and smelled it, but found nothing unusual, so it should be the real antidote without a doubt.

"You finally got the antidote, please help me detoxify." Chu Feimo's face was filled with anger, which was rare. He had never been so angry with any woman since he was a child.

At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind: to tie up this daring woman in front of him, give her a severe lesson, and let her know the consequences of provoking him.

However, Jiang Xue ignored him, carefully put away the antidote, turned around and was about to leave the room.

"Stop, Jiang Xue." Chu Feimo yelled, unable to believe that she would dare to take the things and leave without caring about his life or death.

He is the crown prince of Xiyong. If something happens here, isn't he afraid that it will trigger a war between the two countries?

"Your Highness, why are you so excited? You were just poisoned by the muscle softening powder. As long as you stay calm, the effect of the drug will naturally wear off in two hours at most. How could Princess Changle harm you in Tingfeng Tower?"

Jiang Xue smiled contemptuously and walked out without looking back.

"Jiang, Xue." Chu Feimo gritted his teeth and called her name. If he wasn't so weak and had lost all his internal energy, he would have attacked her long ago.

Everyone in Tingfeng Tower heard the roar and they all shrank their necks and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

They were talking about it: "The people of Xiyong are really rude and disrespectful. The Crown Prince seemed gentle and polite before, but he showed his true colors in the blink of an eye."

After returning to the palace, Jiang Xue hurriedly brought the white porcelain bottle in her hand to Xiao Zhan's bedside.

"Fourth sister-in-law." Xiao Yun saw her and pointed at the bottle and asked, "What is this?"

"It's your fourth brother's life-saving antidote." Jiang Xue replied: "Your Highness Prince An, please help me lift Yun Che up."

Following Jiang Xue's instructions, Xiao Yun gently helped Xiao Zhan sit up and supported him with his chest to make it easier to feed him the medicine.

The antidote was in liquid form. Jiang Xue poured a little into a spoon first, tasted it herself to make sure it was safe, and then prepared to give it to Xiao Zhan.

After a while, seeing that there were no adverse reactions, Xiao Yun confidently put the medicine to Xiao Zhan's mouth.

"No, my fourth brother is unconscious and can't even open his mouth. I can't drink this medicine."

After finally feeding him a spoonful, less than half of it ended up going into his mouth, let alone swallowing it.

Xiao Yun gently wiped away the medicine that overflowed from the corner of Xiao Zhan's mouth with his hand, feeling extremely anxious.

If he can't drink the antidote, how can Fourth Brother recover?

At this time, Jiang Xue looked at the medicine in her hand, put down the spoon, and poured the whole bottle of medicine into her mouth without hesitation.

"Fourth sister-in-law, what are you doing?" Xiao Yun shouted in surprise.

Then, Jiang Xue approached Xiao Zhan, put her lips against his, and in this way passed the antidote in her mouth to Xiao Zhan.

"I swallowed it. I really swallowed it."

When Xiao Yun saw Xiao Zhan's Adam's apple move slightly, he almost jumped up with excitement.

Finally succeeded in getting Fourth Brother to take the antidote!

"Ok!"

When Xiao Zhan woke up, he moved his body slightly, and the severe pain from the wound made him groan.

He glanced at his bandaged shoulder. Due to the previous movement, the bandage was a little loose and blood began to seep out.

"Your injury hasn't healed yet, lie down and rest."

As soon as Jiang Xue entered the room, she noticed that Xiao Zhan was trying to sit up and the wound on his shoulder began to bleed again.

She hurried forward, put down the medicine bowl in her hand, helped him slowly lie half-way on the bed, and put a soft pillow behind his waist to make him more comfortable.

It was observed that the color of the blood oozing from the bandage was much lighter than before, and it seemed that the toxin had been almost completely removed.

"oops."

Just as she was re-bandaging Xiao Zhan's wound, her wrist was suddenly grabbed tightly and her whole body was pulled to the side by a force.

Considering Xiao Zhan's physical condition, Jiang Xue quickly supported the edge of the bed with her hands to prevent herself from bumping into him. Although she was not heavy, it was still too heavy for the currently weak Xiao Zhan.

However, the man in front of her obviously did not appreciate her caution.

She pushed gently with her arms, trying to distance herself from him, frowning slightly. But the big hand behind her suddenly tightened and embraced her.

“Yun Che, you just woke up and your body is still weak. Don’t press me like this.” Jiang Xue advised softly, trying to break free, but as soon as she moved, she heard a man’s low hum in her ear.
