Chapter 88

Xie Cijiu woke up in the fragrance of flowers at night, and she fell into a deep sleep, perhaps also affected by some drug residue.

But Xie Cijiu is different from the prince, she has a Yan Zhihui who can detoxify, her body recovered quickly, and when she woke up she was full of energy and didn't feel any discomfort in her body.

"Are you awake?" Yan Zhihui's voice sounded in the room, Xie Cijiu froze for a moment, then looked back at the flower beside the bed, "You are really not hiding it at all now."

"Heh—" Yan Zhihui chuckled: "I stripped myself clean for you to see, what else is there to cover up?"

Thank you wine: "?"

What is stripped clean?I didn't watch it, I didn't, so don't spread rumors.

She took it up with a light cough, and gave Hua a condescending look: "Speak normally, don't..."

"Don't want what?" Yan Zhi replied jokingly.

Xie Cijiu pursed his lips and put on a cold face for a long time before typing three words: "Don't show off."

Yan Zhi replied: "..."

Seeing the back of Xie Cijiu turning around to find his clothes, Yan Zhihui quietly walked out of the flowers.

"What's wrong with me, it's obviously very fragrant."

Yan Zhihui approached Xie Cijiu slowly, and while she was raising her arm to take something from the wardrobe, he suddenly put his arms around her waist.

Xie Cijiu's waist is actually very sensitive. Being hugged by him like this, he suddenly curled up, and the clothes in his hand almost fell to the ground.

It was Yan Zhihui who held back with his divine power, and put the clothes on the stool beside him.

It's not over yet, Yan, who doesn't know what his face is, stretched out his hand and poked Xie Cijiu's waist, muttering, "Are you so sensitive?"

Xie Cijiu's body trembled, and she was so itchy that she broke her power in an instant, "Ha - don't move!"

Yan Zhi raised his eyebrows back, his eyes flashed playfully: "Oh, I'm ticklish~"

Xie Cijiu's ears warmed up, he gritted his teeth and grabbed his fingers, "Yan, Zhi, Hui——you deserve a beating, don't you?"

Yan Zhihui let go of her hand innocently and looked at her: "I just couldn't hold back."

Xie Cijiu turned around, narrowed his eyes slightly, and scrutinized him: "Really?"

Yan Zhi nodded back: "Yeah."

"Hehe." Xie Cijiu sneered, pointed at the flower: "Go back."

"I just came out..."

"I want to change clothes."

"Oh." Yan Zhihui touched his nose, turned into a streamer and flew back to the flower.

Xie Cijiu stared at him for a while.

Yan Zhi replied: "...I don't want to read it."

Xie Cijiu: "I don't believe it."

"Okay." Yan Zhihui gave a long and helpless sigh, then dropped two leaves, grabbed the edge of the flowerpot and turned the flowerpot around.

Huahua faced the messy bed, leaving Xie Cijiu with a dejected back.

Xie Cijiu stared at it for a while, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

She turned around and took off her inner garment, picked up the one on the stool and put it on, and then put on the outer garment very quickly, before she could let Yan Zhi turn back, a light from outside floated past the window and came to the door.

"Boom boom boom——"

"Is the princess awake? It's time to eat."

It was Hongxue's voice.

Xie Cijiu raised his voice and said, "Wake up, come in."

Only then did Hongxue open the door and enter. She held an oil lamp in one hand and protected the windshield with the other. As she walked, the candlelight flickered and swayed, and the shadows in the room illuminated were messy and intertwined.

She put the oil lamp on the table, and the room became much brighter.

Xie Cijiu looked at her, "How are you and Yinshuang? We didn't have time to ask before, so we didn't encounter any danger, did we?"

Hongxue shook her head, and looked at her with concern: "This is what a servant should ask, is the Princess really not injured?"

Xie Cijiu nodded: "Those people didn't want my life, so naturally they wouldn't hurt me."

"What?" Hongxue was stunned.

"Let's eat first, and we'll talk after we're done. By the way, where are the people from Jiang Lu?"

Hongxue said softly: "This servant was just about to talk to the princess. After Mr. Jiang came back, he asked the servant if the princess was awake. The servant said no, so he went back and said he would come back when you woke up."

Xie Cijiu raised his eyebrows: "So you have something to say to me?"

"At that time, there were so many people in the courtyard that the slaves didn't dare to ask more questions."

"Got it, let's go."

"Yes."

……

Xie Cijiu sat at the table, staring at the bean lights in a daze, did Jiang Lu find anything?
After sleeping, her mind cleared up a lot. She had a guess about the source of the drug, but she was still not sure, so Jiang Lu had to find a way to find it out.

Soon Hongxue came in with Yinshuang, and both of them were holding steaming vegetarian dishes in their hands.

"The Princess is quick to eat while it's hot. In fact, it's already past the meal time, but the crown prince ordered the kitchen to keep the fire on for us, so that we can have fresh hot dishes and hot meals."

Yinshuang said to Xie Cijiu while setting the table.

Xie Cijiu froze for a moment: "The prince is awake?"

"Yeah, I woke up in the afternoon, and sent someone to ask about the situation of the princess. At that time, the princess was sleeping, and the prince didn't bother me."

Xie Cijiu picked up his rice bowl, his eyes darkened, "The doctor showed the prince, did you say anything about drug addiction?"

"This..." Yinshuang hesitated: "I don't know, and I also asked Ji Qian's father-in-law, but Ji Qian's father-in-law said that he didn't know, and only said that the medicine is not harmful to the body, rest well and drink plenty of water and you will be fine."

"No harm?" Xie Cijiu's eyes sharpened, and a half-smile curled up on his lips, "That's really great."

Today's assassins are so kind. To kill everyone is just drugging, and it's such a high-end harmless drug. It's so gracious.

Yinshuang and Hongxue looked at each other, no matter how slow they were, they could sense something was wrong.

"What does the princess mean?"

"Nothing, let's eat."

Xie Cijiu picked up the chopsticks and ate slowly.

……

After dinner, Xie Cijiu put on a cloak and asked Yinshuang to call Jiang Lu out, and the two met under the big willow tree outside the courtyard.

There were other girls living in her yard, and it was not convenient for a big man in Jiang Lu to come in, so I had to go out to meet her.

Yan Zhihui secretly followed Xie Cijiu.

Xie Cijiu seemed to be aware of it, and glanced sideways. Although she didn't see anything, she knew that Yan Zhi was back.

"Aren't you afraid of the cold?"

Yan Zhihui didn't speak, and reached out to hold Xie Cijiu's hand.

His hands were dry and warm, a circle larger than Xie Cijiu's, just enough to wrap her hands, preventing the cold wind from blowing in, and it was warm from the back of the hands to the heart.

Xie Cijiu pursed his lips and said nothing, but his eyes softened unconsciously.

"Princess!" Jiang Lu stood under the big tree with his back to them, and turned around immediately when he heard footsteps.

After seeing Xie Ci drinking, Jiang Lu immediately knelt down, "This subordinate failed to protect the Princess, please punish him!"

"Get up, you're not to blame for this." Xie Cijiu emptily supported Jiang Lu with his other hand, his movements seemed a little awkward.

Jiang Lu looked at her suspiciously, and saw Xie Cijiu's other hand clenched into a fist hanging by his side.

"Is the princess' right hand injured?"

Xie Cijiu: "...cough, no, it's just that I can't use my strength."

She moved her fingers uncomfortably.
