Chapter 53 She was stunned, he was stunned too

Jun Jiuchen didn't look like someone who had just gotten sick last night at all. The figure that stood so far away already gave off a sense of dignity and lofty feeling of majesty.

Facing the wall, with one hand behind his back and the other hand playing with a piece of jade crystal that was like a star, he seemed to be thinking about something.

Beautiful men were truly beautiful just by standing alone.

Gu Feiyan only felt that he had become one with the moon and stars, as if he was part of a beautiful scenery. He didn't seem as cold as he usually was, but he gave off an indescribable feeling of silence.

Gu Feiyan walked over, her footsteps were very light, she didn't have the heart to break this tranquility. She blessed herself and said in a low voice, "Medicine girl, Gu Feiyan pays her respects to Your Highness Prince Jing."

The meeting last night had been too sudden, perhaps only now could it be considered an official meeting. Gu Feiyan thought that since she was chosen by Xia Xiaoman, Prince Jing would first inquire about her identity and say a few words.

But he didn't!

Perhaps he had already known about her identity from Xia Xiaoman, or perhaps he didn't care about her identity at all. He seemed to have already tacitly acknowledged the fact that she had become a medicine girl of the Prince's estate. His attention was still on the jade star, and he asked coldly, "Last night, what happened?"

This question was quite interesting. It didn't say how much he remembered, nor did he ask her about the specific details. It was just a 'what happened', but with implicit meaning of temptation.

Although Gu Feiyan had found out about his secret and was a bit uneasy, she still maintained her serious attitude.

"Your Highness, this servant was unable to deduce your illness, but the truth is that your illness must have changed and you must be treated as soon as possible. This servant originally thought that the medicinal effects of the Scarlet Flame Medicinal Ore had not come out, but after the effects came out, your condition still continued to worsen. This proves that the original prescription was no longer effective, and I have to concoct a new prescription as soon as possible. "

Jun Jiuchen wasn't in a hurry, so he asked coldly, "Since the prescription is ineffective, how did I recovered?"

Although Gu Feiyan didn't want to deceive this male god, she had no other choice.

She had already thought of an excuse long ago, "Yesterday, when I broke all the Scarlet Flame Medicinal Ores into pieces, the efficacy of the hot spring medicinal bath could be said to have reached its peak, Your Highness almost couldn't recover in just a little bit. In the past, when Your Highness had a disease, soaking in the medicinal bath would be able to alleviate it quickly. But yesterday's situation, Your Highness should also be very clear. The situation last night could only be considered a coincidence. Since Your Highness' condition has changed, please see a physician as soon as possible, otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable! "

Gu Feiyan thought to herself that it was impossible to investigate. Anyway, Prince Jing's condition has really changed. Even if a physician came, he wouldn't be able to refute my words, let alone Prince Jing.

However, Jun Jiuchen asked, "What did I hug last night? If your lordship remembers correctly, that thing should have helped expel the cold, right? "

He placed the jade star in his hand onto the wall and turned his head around. His cold gaze locked onto Gu Feiyan's eyes, as if he wanted to see through her thoughts.

Gu Feiyan was so surprised that she couldn't help but reveal a stunned expression.

His Highness Prince Jing actually remembered this matter!

Jun Jiuchen immediately caught sight of Gu Feiyan's startled, somewhat flustered expression, and was even more certain that his guess was correct. The reason why he recovered yesterday was definitely not because of the Scarlet Flame Medicinal Ore.

His memories were pretty much the same as what Gu Feiyan had explained, and he had no idea what happened after that. However, he had an impression that he had picked up a very warm little thing. It seemed that the little thing had dispersed the cold energy in his body and not the Scarlet Flame Medicinal Ore.

Jun Jiuchen didn't say anything. He looked into Gu Feiyan's eyes and waited for her to answer. His ice-cold gaze seemed to be able to penetrate others’ heart.

Gu Feiyan could not take it anymore and quickly avoided his gaze.

This action once again confirmed Jun Jiuchen's guess. His tone turned tough, "What is it?"

Even if Gu Feiyan didn't look at him, she still felt the pressure. She lowered her head and replied, "This servant … This servant doesn't dare to say. "

Jun Jiuchen was puzzled. She had found out about his secret, yet she dared to speak in such a righteous manner and urge him to see a physician.

He purposely bent down and turned his head to look at her, saying coldly, "Medicine Girl Gu, don't let your lordship ask you a third time!"

Gu Feiyan continued to avoid his gaze and kneeled down. "Your Highness Prince Jing, please forgive me! Your Highness wasn't holding anything last night, it was … it was … it was this servant!"

"What?!"

Jun Jiuchen's ice-cold face revealed an expression that had never been seen before!

Gu Feiyan was afraid that he might suspect her, so she hurriedly added, "Your Highness, please forgive me! Your servant only went into the water to look for the Scarlet Flame Medicinal Ores. When this servant gave the red firestone to Your Highness, Your Highness … Your Highness... "

Gu Feiyan's guilty heart was obviously more shameful than shy, but as she spoke, her face couldn't help but turn red, and her ears grew even hotter.

"Your Highness was …"

Gu Feiyan couldn't say anything, she only anxiously said, "Later, Your Highness held this servant's hands tightly. This servant …It has been a blessing for this servant to be able to warm His Highness' body and protect you from the cold. This servant will never dare to offend you. I hope that Your Highness can treat this servant expelling your cold as meritorious service, and spare this servant! This servant promises to keep her mouth shut and will never leak a single word of this matter to anyone! "

Gu Feiyan didn't dare to say anything else after she said that. It would be a mistake to say anything more in front of this man.

She wasn't sure how much Prince Jing believed in her, nor did she dare to raise her head to look at him. Her heart was pounding wildly!

Jun Jiuchen frowned as he tried his best to recall.

Needless to say, he had some impression of what Gu Feiyan had said. Back then, he had pulled this woman into his embrace because he wanted to kill her. And then …

He recalled for a long time. It seemed that he had some impression of her, but it also didn't seem to be true.

He did not believe it all, but remained silent.

The originally quiet hall became even quieter. Only the moonlight and starlight were shining brightly.

The more he waited, the quieter it became.

The more she waited, the more flustered she became. She was afraid that Prince Jing would think of her little medicinal cauldron.

It wasn't that her heart was not strong enough, but that Jun Jiuchen's aura was simply too strong. He casually stood there without getting angry. Most people wouldn't be able to stand it. It was already not bad that Gu Feiyan was able to lie like this.

In the end, Gu Feiyan did not stay calm and took the initiative to change the topic.

"Your Highness, the Scarlet Flame Medicinal Ore is already a top grade medicine to dispel the cold. No other herb or medicine can compare to its efficacy. This servant does not know about cold ailments, but if this servant is not wrong, the new medicine recipe will have to look for another medicinal ore with scarlet flame medicinal ore, and using two different medicine ores at the same time will definitely need a medicinal catalyst."

Gu Feiyan waited for a little while, but seeing that Prince Jing didn't interrupt her, she continued, "This servant has done quite a bit of research on the medicinal ore for cold, and is willing to cooperate fully with the imperial physician to help Your Highness look for a different prescription. It is also considered…also make up for the merits and demerits! Regardless of whether it was the medicinal ores or the guidance of the medicinal herbs, they were not easy to find. I hope that Your Highness will reconsider and find a physician as soon as possible, and seek medicine! "
