Strategy of Prince's Concubine's Rebellion

Chapter 290: Coax her cowardly

"Both Your Highnesses, please rest."

Xiaoju is still immersed in the fear of "death with a stick" and has not recovered.

She glanced at Murong Chen quietly, fearing that if she accidentally said something wrong, he would be angry and call the soldiers to beat her to death again.

Xiao Juecheng said in fear: "Slave... I'm here to take care of the princess. If the princess wakes up, call your two highnesses over immediately."

Unexpectedly, not only was Murong Chen not angry, he didn't even look at her. His deep eyes were staring straight at Princess Yingxue on the couch.

Seeing that his second brother didn't respond, Murong Guang said calmly to Xiaoju: "The two of us will stay here, and feel at ease."

The three of them just waited in the room, and no one said anything.

The night is getting deeper and deeper, and sleepiness is coming in waves...

"Cough cough!"

Murong Guang heard a cough, his arm leaning on the golden nanmu table sank, and he opened his eyes suddenly.

However, he found that Murong Chen had been sitting on the edge of the bed for some time.

He put his hand on Princess Yingxue's face and patted it gently, his voice full of joy.

"Xue'er, are you awake?"

Although Princess Yingxue closed her eyes tightly, her eyes kept moving.

After struggling for a long time, he finally opened his eyes slightly.

Murong Chen immediately yelled at Xiaojue: "Hurry up and bring the soup over here!"

Xiaoju's eyelids were twitching due to sleepiness, and he was frightened by this roar and suddenly became energetic.

He hurriedly took out the medicine bowl that had been soaked in water and was constantly being reheated. He didn't care if it was hot, and hurriedly handed it to King Chen.

After that, according to the custom of Chu country, he quickly pinched his hands on the thick earlobes to relieve the burning.

King Chen helped the dazed Xiang Yingxue up and sat on the bedside.

When he took the medicine bowl from Xiaoju's hand, he took a deep breath.

Why is this bowl so hot!
He resisted the burning feeling in his hands, picked up the spoon in the bowl, filled it with a small spoonful of soup, and blew gently.

After putting it to his lips to test the temperature, he handed it to Xiang Yingxue's mouth. "Xue'er, drink the medicine. The doctor said you will feel better soon."

But the medicine got stuck on Princess Yingxue's lips, not even a drop went in.

Murong Chen raised his eyes and saw Xiang Yingxue looking at him with resentment, his lips stubbornly refusing to open.

The hatred in those eyes was bone-gnawing and heart-burning, as if he wanted to cut himself into pieces on the spot.

His blood surged, and he wanted to immediately show some shame to that stinky girl who secretly eloped with her young lover and was still so confident.

However, looking at her pale face and chapped lips, he held back.

The spoon was forced into her mouth and she spoke in a coaxing tone.

"Xue'er, be good, drink the medicine, and the injury will heal. Come on, take a sip, and I'll ask someone to bring you some candied fruit."

"Snapped!"

Xiang Yingxue pushed out disdainfully, and the sound of broken porcelain sounded harshly.

Murong Chen lowered his head and looked at the splashed soup on his body.

The soup came thickly, with a scorching temperature, and spread all over his ink-black robe.

He clenched his five fingers that were burned red and bit his back teeth hard.

This stinky girl kept calling me a beast, and she was always cold-faced when killing me, but she was willing to have a secret meeting with Zhou Jing and run away.

Now, I am coaxing her down, but this attitude towards me is really hateful.

He turned around and shouted at the stunned Xiaoju: "Bring another bowl of medicine!"

"……Yes!"

Xiaoju hurried out and ran towards the dining room.

The image of Princess Yingxue falling into Zhou Jing's arms, wanting to embrace him and die, still exists in Murong Chen's mind.

His anger had not completely dissipated, and at this moment, the root of his neck was reddened by Xiang Yingxue.
