Xuanqing Palace.

Today's Xuanqing Palace is exceptionally dead, but in this dead silence there seems to be a trace of confusion, and an inexplicable restless air is brewing. The door of the study was closed, and the two guards outside guarded the door tightly. A beautiful woman stood in front of the door and seemed to be cursing something. The woman held a steel whip and slapped the two guards vigorously, as if she wanted to enter the door, but the guards were unmoved.

"Get out of the way, I went in to save him!" The beautiful woman was furious when she saw that she couldn't get through no matter what.

"I'm sorry, princess, this is the order of the prince." One of the guards said.

This woman is Irina. When she heard this, she said angrily: "I am your princess, princess! You don't even listen to me!"

The two guards were unmoved, but a few maids in the courtyard were on the side, exchanging a clear look. Although this Princess Xirong said that she lived in the palace of Xuanqing, and she also called herself Princess Xuanqing, but the prince seldom met her at all. He often saw Princess Xirong angrily asking where the prince went. The prince also ignored the princess Xirong, and there was almost no interaction. Compared with the fourth Miss of the Zhuang family, it was far worse. These maids lived in the mansion all the year round. Naturally, they understood that this was a manifestation of the prince's unwillingness towards Irina.

As long as it is a person, especially the servants, most of them have the ability to see the wind. Seeing that this Princess Xirong is not favored, and Irina has a very bad temper, she will often beat and scold these servants. , the servants gradually criticized her, and even taunted her secretly. Don't underestimate these servants in the house, although they look inconspicuous, but if you talk about stumbling, you don't know how much you will suffer for the other party.

It was in this environment that Irina felt more and more anxious. Fu Yunxi's attitude towards her was indifferent, and the servants all united to bully her. Just like when she was in Xirong before, everyone looked at her flattering and praising her. She was noble and beautiful, how could she look like now. People said behind their backs that she was a gift from the defeated country. She was angry, but what else could be done except to clean up the people who spread the rumors? Rumors will continue to spread, and it is impossible to kill all the servants. Even if she wants to, she has no such right in the Xuanqing Palace. Because Fu Yunxi would not support her.

Irina knew that the reason why she could live in the Xuanqing Palace and replaced Zhuang Hanyan was because she could rescue Fu Yunxi's cold poison. Although it could not be completely cured, at least it could be relieved a little. But Fu Yunxi refused. Irina knew that Fu Yunxi was not just rejecting her own Gu, he was rejecting herself. He would rather die than be with him. Thinking of Zhuang Hanyan, her heart is full of jealousy and unwillingness. She has already left the Xuanqing Palace, and rumors have spread with her royal brother, and her reputation has been ruined. But why is there her shadow everywhere?

Fu Yunxi's condition has worsened since the last time he was injured on the street. These days, he has been staying on the sickbed. The imperial doctor came several times, and then he simply lived in the Xuanqing Palace. Fu Yunxi's days may be running out. If he refuses his Gu worm again, Fu Yunxi will probably die like this. Irina wanted to save her, but Fu Yunxi didn't even see her face, so she just let the guards keep her out of the door.

She hates, is unwilling, suffers, but is helpless.

"Fu Yunxi, you will regret it!" After saying this, Irina ran out of the yard angrily, and the surrounding maids looked at each other and followed reluctantly.

Inside the study.

Cheng Lei sat in front of the desk, with joy or anger on his face: "She's gone."

"En." The person on the bed said indifferently.

"You have cut off all hope." Cheng Lei was a little excited, while Imperial Physician Wu was fiddling with medicinal herbs, and the study was filled with a strong medicinal fragrance. There was only someone reclining on the bed, wearing only a long underwear. The white underwear made his face pale, and the corners of the robe were spread out on the ground, and it seemed that he had lost a little bit.

Seeing that Fu Yunxi didn't answer, Cheng Lei said again: "What's the trouble with you? You are at a critical juncture now, she doesn't know anything, why should you keep that Princess Xirong out of the house, even if you don't like her, Let her cure the disease, and it's not too late to think of other ways to deal with it." The top priority now is to cure the disease, but that princess is also fine. Cheng Lei thinks so, he doesn't have to keep the principle at all times.

"She can't cure me." Fu Yunxi said. His expression was calm, and there seemed to be no trace of sadness.

"How do you know it can't be cured? What if you haven't tried it?" Cheng Lei couldn't help raising his voice. He didn't like Fu Yunxi like this, and he accepted death calmly. This was impossible for Fu Yunxi. In such a crisis situation on the battlefield, I never heard him say this.

"Are you afraid of being dependent on Gu worms?" Taiyi Wu, who had been silent for a while, suddenly said. Fu Yunxi paused slightly and did not speak. On the other hand, Cheng Lei asked curiously, "What kind of dependence?"

"Princess Xirong's Gu worms can deal with the cold poison, and they originally used the method of fighting poison with poison. But the Gu worms themselves have been staying in the body, and they need to be raised, they will **** the flesh and blood of their owners, and they will get more and more into the body. Gu worms are not completely harmless. If you use them too many times, people will become dependent on them and become addicted to them. If you don’t use them once, your whole body will feel unbearable pain. It will gradually damage people's consciousness." Having said that, Imperial Physician Wu glanced at Fu Yunxi: "You are afraid that you will become addicted to Gu worm after using it, and you are even more afraid that you will become confused in the future and do something wrong. do something."

Fu Yunxi was noncommittal, but did not deny it. This was the default.

It was the first time that Cheng Lei heard such a statement, and he couldn't help being surprised. After thinking about it, he immediately became depressed: "So, that Gu worm can't be used, if a big man relies on that little Gu every day. Worm, didn't Princess Xirong have the means to coerce Yun Xi, Yun Xi will lose consciousness in the future, and maybe she will be controlled by that princess." He was a little annoyed: "How can Xirong people do all these wicked and evil ways!"

But even if it is a crooked way, at least it can save Fu Yunxi. Now that this Gu worm can't be used, does Fu Yunxi just sit and wait for death? His condition has gotten worse and worse. He has become lethargic these days. Once he slept for a whole day, Cheng Lei would worry that sometimes he would never wake up again after falling asleep. But Fu Yunxi herself was very indifferent to this matter, as if she didn't know how critical her situation was. He also instructed Cheng Lei to do the things he was going to do well. He is a person who does everything flawlessly. Even if he is really gone one day, the things behind him will not be messed up, and the people who should be killed will be dealt with in advance.
