Lin Luoling was lying on the couch, staring fixedly at the beams, listening to Prince An playing a soothing tune mixed with a hint of worry.

With mixed feelings and confused thoughts in his heart, Lin Luoling knew that Prince An must be in a very bad mood at the moment.

During these days, Lin Luoling and Prince An had been getting along in Jing'an Temple and had felt moved several times.

After coming to Jingfu Temple, through getting along with each other, Lin Luoling discovered that Prince An was not only proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also had read many ancient books. The two often drank tea and chatted in the courtyard.

Even when I felt sleepy late at night, it seemed as if there were still many things I hadn't said.

Moreover, Lin Luoling unknowingly fell in love with Prince An's temperament, which was calm and introverted.

With a "creak", the wooden door was opened.

Lin Luoling turned her head and looked sideways. Two nuns came in carrying a charcoal basin. After putting it down gently, they left the room without saying a word.

She understood that the reason why Prince An did not enter the room was not because he despised her for being infertile. From the tune, she could tell that Prince An was feeling deeply remorseful and afraid.

He blamed himself for not protecting her and was afraid that she would alienate herself from Prince An because of this.

But she is unable to bear children, and with Prince An's shrewdness, he will sooner or later become the crown prince and inherit the position.

Even if she and Prince An were in love with each other, Emperor Deshun would not allow Prince An to marry a barren woman as his concubine, not to mention that she was a second wife.

The tears condensed into pearls, and like broken strings, they flowed from the corners of the eyes into the hair.

For a moment, she missed the days when she first came to Jingfu Temple. If she could freeze that period of time, even if she was accompanied by the ancient Buddha and the green lamp for the rest of her life, she would be able to read books with Prince An in the Jingxin Courtyard, chat and make tea, play chess quietly, and admire the moon with a cup. All of these would be beautiful and happy.

Happiness is always so short-lived, making Lin Luoling feel extremely cold all over. Even the heart that had finally melted now felt cold.

She didn't know how to face King An, so she could only shrink in this square room, lie on the cold couch, and immerse herself in sorrow.

Suddenly, a "bang" sound came from outside the house.

It was obvious that the strings were broken.

Then Dou Tong's exclamation was heard.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Hearing the sound, Lin Luoling's dull eyes suddenly moved and he turned over and got out of bed.

Because she stood up too quickly, her vision went dark for a moment. In addition, she had a high fever for several hours and her whole body felt weak.

He staggered out of the house and immediately saw Prince An lying on the ground. Dou Tong knelt beside him and shouted, "Prince, wake up."

"What's wrong with His Royal Highness Prince An?" Lin Luoling ran forward, squatted down and touched Prince An's forehead.

Dou Tong choked up and said, "Miss Lin, you don't know that the prince has also been poisoned by the 'Ice Fragrance' poison, but it's not serious."

Lin Luoling was confused and asked, "How could His Royal Highness Prince An also be poisoned?"

Dou Tong pursed her lips, and hesitated for a long while before telling Lin Luoling how Prince An sucked Lin Luoling's poisonous blood and was also poisoned, but not seriously, and how Doctor Pang used acupuncture to force the poison out of her, and how after Prince An woke up, he risked his life to return to the palace in order to find an antidote for Lin Luoling.

After hearing this, Lin Luoling felt a pain in her heart and could not help but complain: "You knew that His Royal Highness Prince An was poisoned, why didn't you persuade him? Just let him do what he wanted?"

Dou Tong sniffed and said, "How can others persuade His Royal Highness Prince An to change his mind? Besides, His Royal Highness Prince An holds Miss Lin in his hands, afraid that she will melt. He wants to hide you in his heart. Look at that posture, he wants to exchange his life for yours. Can we persuade him?"

After hearing this, Lin Luoling knew that someone must have tried to dissuade Prince An, but Prince An refused to listen.

Just at this moment, Jiang Chi came over wrapped in a quilt and carrying a food box.

Lin Luoling hurriedly shouted: "Brother, come and save His Royal Highness Prince An."

Jiang Chi took a closer look and his expression changed drastically. He threw away the quilt that was wrapping him, and the food box fell to the ground with a clang. He hurried forward to check Prince An's pulse.

After a while, Jiang Chi said in shock: "His Royal Highness Prince An was also poisoned?"

Dou Tong nodded.

"You don't know?" Lin Luoling asked.

Jiang Chi said, "I don't know. When I came to Jingfu Temple, His Royal Highness Prince An dragged me back to the palace, saying that you were poisoned."

Dou Tong had no choice but to repeat the story of Prince An sucking Lin Luoling's poisonous blood in a concise and concise manner.

Jiang Chi slapped his forehead fiercely and said, "This is nonsense. Why didn't His Royal Highness Prince An mention this to me? He even used Qinggong to return to Prince An's Mansion at the fastest speed. Isn't this accelerating the poison's entry into his internal organs?"

"Is it... serious? Is it very serious? I'll go and ask Doctor Pang to come." Lin Luoling was very flustered.

As soon as she stood up, Jiang Chi grabbed her wrist and said with a sad look in his eyes, "It's too late. Even if you ask the Great Luo Immortal to come, I'm afraid you can't save His Royal Highness Prince An."
