In the garden at the back of the Jing King's Estate, the clear water mist permeated the entire palace, steaming hot.

The water in the pool was naturally warm, and with the addition of the medicinal ores and the boiling medicinal soup, the temperature of the water was even higher than that of an ordinary hot spring.

Jun Jiuchen's entire body was immersed in the soup, so much so that it reached his neck. However, even with this being the case, his complexion was still pale and his lips were purple. Who knew how cold he was at this very moment?

His handsome and unparalleled eyebrows were tightly locked together. Besides that, he didn't show any signs of pain. His waist was straight, and he didn't appear to be in a sorry state at all.

The reason why he frowned wasn't because he couldn't withstand the cold that could freeze his heart. It was because, every time his illness struck, some scenes would quickly flash through his mind.

He tried very hard to "see" it clearly, but unfortunately, up until now, he had never seen it clearly. He was certain that these flashes of light were his lost memories.

Silence reigned in the room. Jun Jiuchen was immersed in the medicinal soup, as well as the pain he was in. In the vast pond, he seemed incomparably silent and lonely.

Only after an hour had passed did the cold gradually disperse. Jun Jiuchen's body gradually recovered its temperature. He leaned back against the stone wall, looking up, exhausted and powerless.

Xia Xiaoman hurriedly brought the cup over. "Your Highness, this servant has prepared the ginseng soup. While it is still warm, this servant will feed it to you."

Jun Jiuchen didn't move. He leaned against the wall for a while before opening his eyes and bringing the ginseng soup over himself.

At this moment, Xia Xiaolei's worried heart was finally at ease.

When Jun Jiuchen left the hot spring, he was just about to get dressed when Mang Zhong rushed over with a letter, "Your Highness, a letter from the old deacon of the Shennong Valley."

Jun Jiuchen quickly opened it to take a look, and when he saw the contents inside, his lips curled up in a pretty smile.

Not to mention Xia Xiao being full, even Mang Zhong was very curious as to why the old deacon from Shennong Valley would write a letter to the Marquis' Highness? What they were even more curious about was what exactly was written in the letter that made King Jing smile?

Jun Jiuchen put away the letter and asked Xia Xiaoman, "Has Gu Feiyan returned yet?"

Xia Xiaoman quickly answered truthfully, "It seems like the lone medicine lady is in a hurry. She has to look for His Highness the moment she returns, and she's still waiting at the entrance of the palace hall."

Jun Jiuchen immediately strode out of the room, and Xia Xiaoman quickly caught up to him, persuading him, "Your Highness, I'm afraid that the lone pharmacist came for the three month period. The emperor has been keeping an eye on this. Your Highness cannot be impulsive! "

Jun Jiuchen didn't say anything and continued walking forward. Just as Xia Xiaoman was about to give chase, Mang Zhong quickly stopped him. "Little Man, you can't interfere in this matter."

Xia Xiaoman angrily waved his hand away and resolutely chased after Jun Jiuchen, blocking his way. He earnestly advised, "Your Highness, the orphaned medicine woman found out about the emperor's secret. "Besides, the Emperor already has a candidate for a secondary wife. If His Highness makes an exception for the lone medicine girl, I'm afraid the secondary wife won't be able to push him aside."

Jun Jiuchen raised an eyebrow and glanced at him, but didn't say anything. He only waved his hand, signaling him to move aside.

"Your Highness, this servant …"

Xia Xiaoman still wanted to advise, but Jun Jiuchen finally said coldly, "Step down!"

Xia Xiaoman stopped talking, but didn't leave. He directly knelt down. The light in Jun Jiuchen's eyes darkened. He kicked his foot out, and took a big step forward.

Jun Jiuchen's kick was so ruthless that Xia Xiaolei couldn't even get up from the ground.

"You're fine, right? I've already said that you can't control this matter, so why aren't you listening?"

"I did it for their own good!"

Xia Xiaoling thought it over and over again, feeling depressed. "If Your Highness took the throne, then there wouldn't be any more trouble! We don't understand. His Highness had left her the throne but didn't want it, so why did she have to search for the secrets of the sea of ice? In the end, they had all taken advantage of the Crown Prince! This position should also belong to His Highness! "

Manzhong was so scared that he quickly covered his mouth with his hands. "Keep your voice down!" Such words can be randomly said! "

Xia Xiaoman pulled his hand away, saying in a low voice, "This matter, could it be that this is the promise His Highness made to the Great Emperor? Your Highness couldn't have been restricted by Great Emperor Uncle, right? "

Mang Zhong was even more frightened. He once again covered his mouth, "I told you not to speak nonsense, but you still dared to speak!"

Xia Xiaoman opened it but had to say something.

Jun Jiuchen was clearly in a hurry, but when he saw Gu Feiyan sitting at the entrance of the chamber from afar, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. He hesitated for a long time, but in the end, he did not walk over. Instead, he left from the side.

Gu Feiyan waited all night and even when the sun rose the next day, there was still no one around. She finally realized that Prince Jing wasn't in his chambers.

Annoyed, she rushed straight into Xia Xiaoman's room and grabbed his collar, "Liar! "Where's Prince Jing? Tell me!"

Xia Xiaoman was surprised.

Gu Feiyan was anxious and angry. She pinched his neck with her other hand and warned, "You won't say it!"

Before Xia Xiaoman could say anything, Gu Feiyan pushed him away and angrily said, "Xia Xiaoman, just you wait!" When I become the big red man in the imperial study, I won't forgive you for the first time! "

With that said, Xia Xiaoman was shocked, "What?"

Isn't the big red man in the royal study Eunuch Mei?

Could it be that the Emperor didn't want her to return to the royal dispensary, but instead wanted her to stay by his side and wait upon him?

Xia Xiaoman understood too well the character of the Tianwu Emperor. He immediately broke out in a cold sweat as he said anxiously, "Y-you, why didn't you say so earlier!?" Just you wait, we'll go find the Marquis King right now! "

However, even after searching for a whole day, Xia Xiaoman was still unable to find his master. Thus, when he asked Mang Zhong about it, Mang Zhong did not know either! Xia Xiaoman was extremely vexed as he slapped himself twice before going to see Gu Feiyan.

He had been hoping day and night that His Highness would listen to his persuasion, but now, he felt incomparably regretful. He was afraid that His Highness would listen to his persuasion and hide from him like this.

His Highness definitely didn't expect that the emperor would keep Gu Feiyan by his side!

In this matter, apart from His Highness, no one could help Gu Feiyan. Three days were short and passed in the blink of an eye! If His Highness really hid himself, then Lonely Flying Yan would be in trouble!

Gu Feiyan was nervous all day and couldn't do anything, so he was very anxious. Seeing Xia Xiaoman walk over, she hurriedly asked, "How was it, did you find His Highness?"

With a look of guilt, Xia Xiaoman shook his head.

Lonely Flying Swallow was so angry that he raised his arms, but in the end, he lowered them. She sat down on the edge of the flower bed and exhaled heavily.

Xia Xiaoman suddenly thought of a few places and continued to search without a second thought. Gu Feiyan could only continue to wait.

Unfortunately, Xia Xiaoman returned in vain.

Even on the third night, Gu Feiyan didn't see Jun Jiuchen.

Tonight was the deadline, and according to the rules, His Highness Duke Jing didn't keep anyone. Tomorrow morning, she would leave on her own, returning to the Imperial Pharmacy to report. From tomorrow onwards, anyone could borrow someone from her.

Actually, Gu Feiyan was very clear that at this critical juncture, the Duke Jing's most wise choice was to not show his face. If he did not show his face, then it would be equivalent to not expressing his stance, and Emperor Tianwu would not be able to understand his thoughts.

But at the very least, the master and his servant still had to be concerned about him, right? At least, she had pleaded twice, and he had to give her a clear answer, hadn't he?

She had always thought that she had some place in the male god's heart. But now, she realized that there wasn't even a little place.

Gu Feiyan lowered her head, a deep sense of disappointment and defeat emerged in her heart.

However, she did not want to compromise. She thought that it would be better to rely on herself. Tomorrow, no matter the cost, she would not stay by Emperor Tian Wu's side …
