After the arranged marriage, I pampered the sickly regent.

Chapter 143 Something happened again

"But what?"

Seeing that Leng Feng was implying something, Zhan Sijing's eyes turned slightly cold as he asked a question.

Leng Feng glanced at the man over there and said cautiously, "This subordinate believes that the Princess has another reason."

"Just back off."

Zhan Sijing raised his hand, clearly not intending to ask any further questions, "If the Princess Consort has any news, please report to me immediately."

"Yes." Leng Feng replied and turned to leave.

When Zhan Sijing arrived at the courtyard where Ye Qingwu was, he felt a pang of loss. If only he could have stopped her then and there.

Would this lead to a different outcome?

Ye Qingwu did not return to the palace until evening.

"Your Highness, you're finally back!"

Upon seeing the appearance of Ye Qingwu, Leng Feng was extremely excited.

"What's wrong with you?"

Seeing Leng Feng's excited appearance, Ye Qingwu was puzzled. She had only been away for an afternoon, so why did she act like they hadn't seen each other for a long time?

"Your Highness, while you were away, the Prince was frantic with worry for you. Please go and see him quickly."

Thinking back to the scene in the study, Leng Feng hurriedly said that in all the years he had served his master, this was the first time he had ever seen his master show such a sad expression.

Ye Qingwu's heart skipped a beat. Thinking of Zhan Sijing's condition at the time, could he really be thinking of doing something rash?

Although only a small portion of the Shadowless Poison remained in Zhan Sijing's body, it was not without harm. No, she had to go check on him immediately.

Thinking of this, Ye Qingwu asked Leng Feng, "Leng Feng, where is the Prince now?"

"The prince was in his study at the time."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingwu didn't think much of it and quickly headed towards the study.

But when he pushed open the study door, he found it empty and deserted.

She looked at Leng Feng, who had come with her, and asked, "Didn't you say the prince was in the study? Where is she now?"

"This..." Leng Feng was also completely bewildered, glancing around. "Before I left, Your Highness was indeed in the study, as for now..."

"Has the prince returned to his courtyard?"

Faced with Leng Feng's speculation, Ye Qingwu merely glanced at him and headed towards the courtyard where Zhan Sijing was.

But just like before, Zhan Sijing was nowhere to be seen in the courtyard.

It was already evening. If he was nowhere to be found in the study or courtyard of the Prince's mansion, then where could he be?

Thinking about this, Ye Qingwu had a bad feeling, as if something bad was going to happen.

Leng Feng, who had been following Ye Qingwu, also realized the seriousness of the situation.

"Your Highness, could something really have happened to the Prince?"

Leng Feng's face was full of worry.

Ye Qingwu lowered her eyes, "Did you notice anything unusual about the prince's body at the time?"

"Abnormality".

Leng Feng pondered for a moment, then exclaimed in alarm as if he had just remembered something, "Your Highness, I've remembered!"

"At that time, the prince suddenly felt pain in his chest, but when his subordinates asked, the prince only said that it was nothing serious."

"Your Highness, I will immediately take men to search outside the mansion."

"It's getting dark soon, where do you plan to start your search?"

Ye Qingwu countered with a question.

She took out a talisman from her spatial storage and channeled spiritual energy into it.

The talisman will guide her to find Zhan Sijing's whereabouts.

However, the result she got when she used the talisman was somewhat unexpected.

The final instruction told him that Zhan Sijing had not left the mansion and was still inside.

She had already searched both places and hadn't found Zhan Sijing. If he was still in the manor, then there was only one other place she could think of.

Meeting Leng Feng's worried gaze, Ye Qingwu said, "You don't need to worry too much. I think I already know the prince's whereabouts."

"Really?" Leng Feng was extremely excited.

Ye Qingwu nodded slightly and then walked out of the courtyard.

The uneasy Leng Feng followed, and was somewhat surprised when he realized the direction Ye Qingwu had gone.

Isn't this the princess's courtyard? Could the prince be there?

Thinking of this, Leng Feng slapped his forehead. Yes, given the circumstances at the time, why didn't he think to come and visit the princess's courtyard?

As they approached the courtyard, Leng Feng saw a man sitting at the stone table.

The only person who could appear in this place is our master.

Leng Feng pointed in that direction and excitedly said to Ye Qingwu, "Your Highness, do you think that person sitting in the chair is the Prince?"

Ye Qingwu was about to nod, but suddenly stopped in her tracks just as she was about to approach.

She grabbed the cold wind that was about to come forward with her.

Leng Feng asked, puzzled, "What's wrong with the Princess?"

"The prince's condition is not quite right."

"Oh no! It's malevolent energy!"

Ye Qingwu was startled and immediately threw out several talismans, only to see Zhan Sijing stand up from his chair.

"The cold wind receded."

The moment Zhan Sijing turned around, Ye Qingwu felt the murderous aura suddenly disappear, and Zhan Sijing collapsed to the ground as if all his energy had been depleted.

"Your Majesty!"

Ye Qingwu quickly stepped forward and immediately took Zhan Sijing's pulse, only to find that his pulse was disordered and a very small portion of his Qi was wandering.

How could things have turned out like this?

Worst of all, this remaining small amount of gas was like a concentrated mass of toxins from before.

But things shouldn't be like this. Could it be that the previous improvement in Zhan Sijing was just a facade?

Ye Qingwu didn't have time to think and ordered Leng Feng, "Carry the prince inside. I need to treat him."

After receiving the order, Leng Feng did not hesitate for a moment. Only after everything was settled did he say, "Your Highness, I will stand guard outside. If you need anything, please let me know."

Ye Qingwu gave a soft "hmm" and, after the cold wind had dissipated, took out an acupuncture kit from her spatial storage.

Things left in the space for a long time have long been tainted with spiritual energy. Looking at Zhan Sijing lying on the bed, Ye Qingwu felt helpless.

What should she do with him?

It only took an afternoon to get myself into this state.

If she had come back any later, would he have lost his life?

That's it.

Ye Qingwu took out several silver needles from her acupuncture kit and began the treatment.

Since we made a promise, we can't just leave the person to become useless halfway through the treatment.

After this treatment, it was already late at night.

During the treatment of Zhan Sijing, Ye Qingwu discovered something strange.

That's malevolent energy.

She had always wondered where the gas protecting Zhan Sijing's chest came from, but now she realized it must have been transformed from malevolent energy, or even related to the so-called curse.

Intuition told me that there must be some special secret hidden within Zhan Sijing.

But she still needs time to find out exactly what it is.

However, one thing is certain: things have suddenly become complicated.

After ensuring Zhan Sijing was alright, Ye Qingwu sighed softly. Ever since she transmigrated into this book, strange things had been happening around her non-stop.

And Zhan Sijing... Ye Qingwu stared at his handsome face, momentarily stunned.
