Xiao Huayong felt helpless about Shen Xihe's lack of understanding of romance, but he felt his heart filled with inexplicable joy when Shen Xihe was willing to change and consider his feelings.
Feeling satisfied, Xiao Huayong did not dare to stay for long. Even though Shen Xihe seemed defenseless now, they were husband and wife after all. How could Xiao Huayong not feel that her eyes were always locked on his every move
Xiao Huayong took a step forward, and Shen Xihe quickly moved forward a step. He just wanted to get closer to her and say goodbye to her affectionately, but her vigilant look reminded him of the released deer, just as adorable.
"Go to bed early. If you want to look for me, just blow the bone whistle." Xiao Huayong smiled softly, then climbed out the window and left silently.
Shen Xihe breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly washed and bathed. Before he prepared to rest, he specifically reminded Mo Yu: "Even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince comes in the middle of the night, he is not allowed to enter without my permission."
"Yes." Mo Yu nodded in agreement.
Only then did Shen Xihe lie down peacefully and fall into a sweet dream.
At the same time, the Crown Princess in the post station suddenly fell ill. Zhenzhu, the female doctor beside the Crown Princess, knocked on the door of the accompanying medical officer and took some medicinal herbs. The medical officer did not have any, so they had to alert Xiao Changfeng, who was now in charge of their safety. Xiao Changfeng sent someone to the pharmacy in the city to buy medicine, and brought the medical officer to the Crown Princess' bedroom, waiting outside the screen, awaiting the results of the medical officer's examination.
After the doctor finished examining him, Xiao Changfeng noticed that the doctor looked a little strange, and asked with some concern, "How is Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess?"
The doctor's eyes flashed, and then he bowed and said, "Reporting to the prince, Her Highness the Crown Princess is suffering from a cold. I have read Miss Pearl's prescription and found that the medicine is very suitable for her condition. With Miss Pearl here, there is no need for me to teach you how to do this. Her Highness the Crown Princess will surely recover soon."
After hearing this, Xiao Changfeng raised his brows slightly and glanced at the shadowy figure behind the screen. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out for a while. It was not good to stay in Shen Xihe's room for a long time. It was late at night and he was in the melon field.
"I hope the Crown Princess is fine." Xiao Changfeng said respectfully, "The prince is next door. If the Crown Princess has any instructions, just send someone to call the prince."
"Thank you, King Xun." The Crown Princess' voice was very hoarse and weak.
After Xiao Changfeng left, the people he brought with him also left. The medical officer went to the end of the corridor, where Xiao Changfeng was temporarily staying, bowed and saluted. Just as he was about to leave, he was grabbed by the arm by Xiao Changfeng: "The little king is feeling a little unwell. The medical officer will let him in to check his pulse."
The medical officer was brought into Xiao Changfeng's room, and he became uneasy. Xiao Changfeng sat down at the table leisurely, poured himself a cup of hot water, and then looked up at the anxious medical officer: "How is Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess?"
"Reporting to the prince, Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess is indeed fine. She will be able to rest in bed tomorrow after taking the right medicine." The doctor replied.
"Oh?" Xiao Changfeng's voice was raised meaningfully, "If that's the case, why did you look flustered after checking the Crown Princess' pulse?"
"Your Majesty, I have no..."
"Think it over before you reply. I hate it most when someone deceives me," Xiao Changfeng interrupted him with a serious expression.
The doctor's heart skipped a beat and he quickly knelt down: "Your Highness, the Crown Princess is indeed fine, but..."
