In the early morning, the chirping of birds woke Su Lingyue up. When she opened her eyes, Xiao Yu was still asleep, but his arms were still tightly around her waist.

When Xiao Yu hugged her last night, his hand was always stroking her back.

Xiao Yu's gentle caress was very helpful for her to sleep, but she didn't know when Xiao Yu fell asleep.

Judging from the way he is sleeping now, it should be very late.

Su Lingyue closed her eyes and listened to Xiao Yu's steady breathing, her eyes feeling hot.

She has always longed to have a home of her own, but now that she has one, she has to watch her beloved one's life slip away bit by bit, feeling powerless to do anything.

Xiao Yu is such a good man and has suffered so much, but now he has to have such an ending.

There is still a year left, and the world is so big that there might be spiritual fire grass somewhere.

Su Lingyue thought of someone and had to find time to meet him. Maybe he would find some clues.

With a glimmer of hope, Su Lingyue's chest pain was relieved a lot. Smelling the faint scent of agarwood on Xiao Yu's body, Su Lingyue gradually fell asleep again.

She didn't know how long it had been before she was awakened by the soft touch on her forehead. She opened her eyes and saw Xiao Yu kissing her forehead gently.

She closed her eyes again, raised her chin and put her lips forward.

However, after a moment, nothing happened.

Su Lingyue opened one eye slightly, wanting to see what Xiao Yu was doing. As soon as she opened her eyes a little, she saw Xiao Yu looking at her tenderly.

She simply stopped closing her eyes, opened her bright eyes and looked straight at Xiao Yu, pouting her lips and saying, "Is this not okay?"

Xiao Yu helplessly stroked Su Lingyue's cheek, "Yue'er, don't you remember what I said last night?"

"Remember, you asked me to accompany you, and I agreed. Is this really the only way we can do? Even a kiss is not okay?" Su Lingyue blinked, and looked at him aggrievedly with her bright eyes.

Xiao Yu looked at Su Lingyue seriously. There was no sadness or sorrow on her bright and beautiful face.

He felt a little unhappy. Was his business not important to him? Didn't she care at all?

While thinking this, he felt fortunate that Su Lingyue didn't care, and he could wait for death peacefully in the future.

Looking at the bright and clear eyes and rosy lips of the person in his arms, Xiao Yu's heart melted little by little. He held the back of Su Lingyue's neck and kissed Su Lingyue's soft lips.

This time he kissed her very restrainedly, rubbing his lips lightly and tenderly.

She also responded to Xiao Yu gently.

After the long kiss, Su Lingyue leaned on Xiao Yu's chest, feeling a little sad.

How nice it would be if time could stop at this moment, but unfortunately it can't, Xiao Yu's life will still pass away.

There was still time, he couldn't give up.

Asked: "Does the prince know about Xiliang?"

"Learn a little bit, why is Yue'er suddenly interested in Xiliang?"

"I invited Zhao Xingzhou from Zhao's Trading Company to my birthday party yesterday. He brought a businessman friend with him. He said he was from Xiliang. His name was Mu Lang. He didn't look like a businessman, but more like a high-ranking official. I wonder if Your Highness knows this person."

After Xiao Yu pondered for a moment, he said, "I don't know if there is anyone with the last name Mu in Xiliang, but their third prince is named Li Lang."

Su Lingyue was a little surprised. She looked up at Xiao Yu and asked, "Your Highness, are you saying that Mu Lang is Li Lang?"

"Not necessarily. We'll have to check to know." Xiao Yu paused, and then said, "The 20th of next month is the emperor's birthday. Every year at this time, Xiliang Kingdom will send people to deliver gifts. Maybe he came for this."

Xiao Yu patted Su Lingyue's back and comforted her, "I will check this matter, you don't have to worry."

Su Lingyue nodded.

Because Su Lingyue had promised Qin Wanning that she would give her acupuncture, she took Caidie and Li Jing to He Mansion after breakfast.

The eldest lady of the He family was very surprised to see Su Lingyue coming, and hurried forward to greet her, "Princess, why are you here?"

Su Lingyue nodded and said, "Madam He, it's really rude of you to disturb me so suddenly, but I came to talk to Wan Ning about some private matters, so I don't want to bother you by posting a message."

Madam He asked with a scrutinizing smile, "Wan Ning is in the yard. What does the princess want?"

It is still unknown whether Wan Ning's illness can be cured. Under this premise, Su Lingyue does not want anyone to know that she has medical skills.

After all, if the news that a noble lady from an aristocratic family knows medicine gets out, people will despise her, so it is better for her to keep a low profile.

Su Lingyue smiled and said, "It's not a big deal. I wanted to embroider some handkerchiefs and purses for the prince, but the embroidery was really not good enough, so I had to come to Wan Ning."

Madam He's expression relaxed. "I see, that child's embroidery is indeed good. I will lead the way for the princess."

"Good work."

Su Lingyue followed Mrs. He and walked towards the inner courtyard.

On the way, Su Lingyue was thinking about where she would need to be embroidered later, when Madam He suddenly spoke up and said softly, "To be honest, Princess, my Wan Ning is recovering from her illness. Please understand and don't embroider for too long, so as not to tire her out."

Hearing that Wan Ning's mother-in-law cared so much about her, Su Lingyue felt a lot more relieved.

She chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Madam. I only come for half an hour every day."

"Every day!" Mrs. He seemed a little surprised.

"Well, don't worry, Madam. I won't let Wan Ning get tired. She just needs to teach me from the side."

"……it is good."

When Su Lingyue arrived at Qinfang Courtyard, she smelled a faint scent of medicine, which must be Wan Ning's medicine.

"Wan Ning, look who's here!" Madam He smiled and said loudly to Wan Ning inside.

"Who?"

"It's the Princess of Su! Why don't you come to greet her?"

"Yue'er!"

With a surprised voice, Qin Wan Ning walked out quickly from the hall.

"You came so soon!"

She quickly walked forward, took Su Lingyue's hand and led her inside.

"Wan Ning, slow down, don't let the princess fall!" Madam He smiled and warned from behind.

"Yes, mother, don't worry, I will pay attention." Wan Ning responded, and pulled Su Lingyue to sit in the hall.

As soon as she came in, Su Lingyue noticed a bowl full of medicine on the table.

"Is this the medicine you drank?"

"Yes." Qin Wan Ning said to the maid beside her, "Quickly make a pot of this year's pre-rain Longjing tea."

The maid looked at the medicine, frowned hesitantly and said, "But Madam, the mistress asked me to watch you finish the medicine!"

"It's too bitter. I'll wait a while before drinking it. You go ahead!" Wan Ning smiled and pushed her. The maid hesitated for a long time before leaving.

After the maid left, Qin Wan Ning frowned and looked at the medicine bowl on the table. She made up her mind and was about to pick it up to drink, but Su Lingyue brought the bowl in front of her, picked up the spoon, scooped some and started to taste it.

The bitter medicine made her frown.

"Yue'er, what is this?" Qin Wanning looked at Su Lingyue strangely.

Su Lingyue smiled and said, "Oh, I want to see what medicine you take on a daily basis, so that I can know how the doctor treats you and prescribe the right medicine..."

After identifying the medicinal juice in the mouth, it is obvious which medicinal ingredients are contained in it.

Su Lingyue was completely shocked!

Seeing that Su Lingyue's expression was not right, Qin Wanning asked in confusion: "What's wrong, Yue'er?"

Su Lingyue frowned, looked at the door, and said with a smile: "It's okay! This medicine is really too bitter. It's hard for you to drink it for more than a year!"

Qin Wanning lowered her eyes, feeling a little depressed, "It's a pity that after drinking for so long, I still can't have a child."

"Don't worry, it will happen."

Su Lingyue patted Qin Wanging's hand and comforted her gently.

Qin Wanning smiled and was about to pick up the medicine bowl, but Su Lingyue held her hand and shook her head gently.

Qin Wanning followed Su Lingyue's instructions and did not pick up the bowl, but the color on her face faded gradually.
