She had not taken two steps when two eunuchs called her back.

"The crown prince has yet to let you go. Go back to your room and wait!"

As he spoke, he pushed her away. As he entered the room, Shangguan Qian's face was filled with helplessness. The corners of his mouth twitched as he stood behind Li Yifeng.

He was very serious. From time to time, he would frown and occasionally, he would take a sip of tea. By the time he had dealt with everything, it was almost daybreak.

As for Shangguan Qian's clothes, they were almost dried by his own body heat.

"It's almost dawn." Li Yichen stretched, then stood up and looked outside before lazily saying, "Go brew another pot of tea."

Shangguan Qian's eyes lit up, he hurriedly took the teapot and walked out. Only when he was completely out of the East Palace did she heave a sigh of relief.

He did not dare linger and quickly headed to his own courtyard. It was fine at night, but if it was in the morning, she would definitely be suspected if she wore these clothes and went out of the Palace.

Fortunately, they didn't encounter many people on their way back to the side chamber. They quickly changed their clothes and let out a sigh of relief.

He didn't even sleep. Wei, after washing up, went to the main hall, only to be told that the empress was not in the palace, only then did Shangguan Qian remember.

Last night, Young Master Sheng said that the Emperor had vomited blood. It seemed that the situation was very serious, but he just didn't know if it was done by Li Fengyi's men.

He sighed, then turned around and walked out. He just so happened to see the approaching Li Yichen, and he frowned as he asked, "Why are you here?"

"I came looking for the empress."

Li Yichen smiled indifferently, and paid no attention to her as he walked in.

Shangguan Qian was also too lazy to bother with him, and when he thought of how he had poured cold water on her for his sake, he couldn't help but feel a pang of frustration in his heart.

He had only taken a single step when he couldn't help but sneeze loudly. Rubbing his nose, he returned to the side chamber.

Other than the people inside the palace, no one else should know of the Emperor vomiting blood.

However, the princes still stayed guard throughout the night, so Li Qingying came early in the morning with a pair of dark circles under his eyes.

"Qian'Er, good morning."

Shangguan Qian also did not feel any better, yawning as he asked knowingly, "Why are you so early?"

"Don't you know? Father. If there's a problem, then we princes will have to wait all night. It's a good thing that we have Imperial Physician Xue Xuan and Xue Moyan. " Li Qing Ying casually sat on the chair and looked at her with a smile. "Don't tell me you don't miss me at all?"

Shangguan Qian's face was cold. Thinking that it was all because of this person in front of her that he had bad luck, she felt very angry in the bottom of her heart, saying in a low voice, "Li Qing Ying, the Crown Prince should have told you, right? "Don't bother me anymore in the future. I don't want people to suspect me."

Her words were very decisive, but they were even more filled with resentment towards Li Yichen. Wasn't it Li Yichen who inexplicably wanted to assassinate her?

Even so, Li Qing Ying's expression changed a little, and then she said awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I caused you trouble. I just can't control myself, I want to see you everyday."

"Li Qing Ying, what's the difference between you and an ordinary prince? You are just new to me. If I am close to you, you should be annoyed. " Shangguan Qian furrowed his brow, saying solemnly: "Don't come back in the future, I really don't want anyone to misunderstand anything."

"But …"

"Eighth brother, did you not hear what Qian'Er said?" A mocking voice came from the door.

Li Fengyi strode forward, a hint of joy in his eyes. He had not expected Shangguan Qian to reject Li Qingying so coldly.

"Third brother, this is between her and me, you better not get involved."

"The 'she' you speak of is my fiancée, shouldn't I interfere?" Li Fengyi's expression was gloomy. He had always endured, but this did not mean that he was weak.

At the side, Shangguan Qian was even more helpless. How did the two of them bump into each other again? How annoying.

"Since I didn't pass, I have a chance. Qian'Er, I …"

"Li Qingying, I don't like you!" Shangguan Qian shouted with a dark face, his eyes full of helplessness. Did they have to tell him so directly?

Li Qingying's expression froze for a moment. His heart was wounded. If she didn't like him, then why did she save him? Why not just let him die?

His heart was slightly hurt. He turned around and glared at Li Fengyi before turning around and leaving.

Shangguan Qian's head hurt so badly, he mumbled to himself, "Feng Yi, I really have no other choice, and I don't want to get into a fight with him." "It's all tangled up, but he's always …"

"Stop talking, I believe you." Li Fengyi looked as if he understood. Shangguan Qian's words had pissed off Li Qingying, and he was actually secretly feeling pleased in his heart. He had to admit, facing Shangguan Qian who was treating Li Qingying coldly, he truly felt that this woman was not like the others were talking about.

Shangguan Qian Bei sighed and leaned his head against the side. "I heard that Your Majesty vomited blood?" "What's the situation now?"

"The situation has finally turned for the better." When Li Fengyi said these words, his brows were obviously furrowed, and then he let out a sigh, as if he was regretting something.

Shangguan Qian took in all his looks, then smiled. "Imperial Physician Xue's medical skills are indeed flattering."

"Yeah, that's great." Li Fengyi's eyes were deep and serene, no one knew what he was thinking.

Shangguan Qian'er felt her head getting heavier and heavier, rubbing her head incessantly. Li Fengyi, who was at the side, naturally noticed as well.

He placed his large hand on her forehead and couldn't help but ask, "Your forehead is especially hot, could it be that you're sick?"

Shangguan Qian also had a look of helplessness on his face. If he really was sick, it was due to the bucket of water that he had been drenched in yesterday.

"But right now, Imperial Physician Xue isn't at the imperial dispensary. I'm afraid he'll have to find another Imperial Physician."

"It's alright, Feng Yi, is the emperor's illness serious?" Shangguan Qian asked seriously.

Li Fengyi's face revealed a trace of difficulty, sighing, "Actually, since the last time our emperor was stabbed …" "My body is already no longer able to do it."

Shangguan Qian looked at him deeply. If she did not know that he had planted a trusted aide in the palace to poison the Emperor, perhaps she would have believed him.

The more he thought about it, the more muddleheaded he became. He staggered and nearly fell to the ground.

Li Fengyi hastily supported her and whispered, "Qian'Er, you stay on the bed for now. Lie down for a while, I'll get someone to find an imperial physician. "

She nodded and lay down on the bed.

He vaguely fell asleep, and when he woke up, it was already afternoon. There was not a single person around.

"Princess, are you awake? Come and take your medicine. " A small palace maid pushed open the door and brought in the medicine, Shangguan Qian sat up, he had no power to resist, he just let her feed him the medicine, but he still felt muddleheaded.

After a whole day of sweating, he finally felt at ease.

When he opened his eyes, he found Senya sitting on her bed.

"Qian'Er, you're awake."

She nodded and looked at her with a puzzled expression. "When did you arrive?"

"I came in the afternoon, but I saw that you were sleeping so I didn't disturb you." Sen Ya giggled.

It was said that sickness came as a landslide, and illness walked as a thread. There was no such feeling in the past, but this time, it was rather intense.

He took a deep breath and wiped off the sweat on his forehead. He pursed his lips and said, "I'm a little hungry."

"Hungry? "It just so happens that before Feng Yi left, he instructed the royal kitchen to make you some porridge. I'll bring it over." Sen Ya brought the porridge on the table. "It's warm. It's not hot anymore."

Shangguan Qian'er nodded, eating quietly, not forgetting to ask the Emperor about his situation.

Logically speaking, since the current situation was unclear, how could Li Fengyi dare to directly cause an accident for the emperor? If the emperor were to pass away at this moment, it wouldn't be beneficial to him.

"Your majesty, I heard that everything is fine now. The empress has already returned." Sen Ya said.

Shangguan Qian'er nodded, continuing to eat his porridge in a low voice. Before he finished eating, he heard footsteps in the yard, but he did not enter.

Sen Ya curiously walked to the window and took a glance. Her face had a look of disgust. "It's Li Qing Ying."

Under the moonlight, Li Qingying stood there, looking into the room with worry in his eyes, but he didn't dare to enter.

Shangguan Qian had rejected him time and time again, and he really did not dare to go back in. His face was not thick enough for that.

It was just that when he heard that she was very sick, he was really worried. He didn't know how she was doing right now.

"Sen Ya, tell him to leave, and ask him not to cause any more trouble for Qian'Er." Shangguan Qian'er sighed. If Li Qingying were to continue like this, then perhaps Li Yichen wouldn't even be able to vent his hatred by killing her ten times.

Furthermore, she was in the empress's palace right now. The empress would definitely be aware of Li Qingying's impudence. If the crown prince was going to execute her, she definitely wouldn't be as lucky as she was now.

Sen Ya went out to get a plate of dessert and mumbled, "I really don't know what the eighth prince means. He just passed this plate of dim sum to me and then left. He even said he wanted you to have a good rest."

Shangguan Qian Qian looked at the plate of pastries that Li Qing Ying had given her to eat before the Great Hunt had begun. At that time, she had not eaten breakfast, and he had even eaten a lot.

Now that he thought about it, he actually felt a bit sad.

"This plate of snacks is very delicious. Sen Ya, try it."

Sen Ya pinched one piece and nodded. "That's right."

At that moment, a court lady walked in. "Princess, the empress is waiting for you for dinner."

Shangguan Qian started, then nodded randomly and said: "Alright, I'll go now."

Inside the main hall, Shangguan Qian and Sen Ya arrived at the dining table, one on each side, only to discover that the Crown Prince Li Yichen was actually there as well.

Shangguan Qian's face showed some displeasure, but he did not show it, bowing to the empress.

"Qian'Er, Sen Ya, let's sit and eat together." The queen smiled.

As for Sen Ya, she directly sat beside the Crown Prince Li Yichen, her eyes revealing a different sort of emotion.

"Qian'Er, I heard that you're sick. Have you seen the imperial physician?"

"I have the chills, but I'll be fine after I break out in sweat tonight. Thank you for being so concerned about me." Shangguan Qian smiled decently.

The empress looked at her and sighed. "It just so happens that the emperor suddenly fell ill. I went to take care of the emperor. If I didn't manage to take care of Qian'er, don't mind me."

"Qian'Er doesn't care at all." Shangguan Qian was flattered as he opened his mouth.

"Yi Chen, where's Qing Ying?" Wasn't it just now? Why did he disappear? You don't need to eat dinner? " The Queen asked in a low voice.

Only now did Li Yichen look up, and his tone was calm. "I don't know, I probably don't need it."

"Alright then." The empress spoke up helplessly.

Shangguan Qian Shan raised his brow slightly, he really didn't know what the empress meant by saying that intentionally for her to hear.

This was the empress's palace. If there was any disturbance, the empress should be the first to know, right?

The empress probably already knew that Li Qingying was in the side chamber. Now she was asking about it, was it for her to hear?

She had never intended to provoke Li Qingying, and now that Li Qingying didn't even want to meet her, wasn't that what she wanted?

"Actually, the eighth prince was just in the side palace."

Shangguan Qian seemed to hesitate for a long time, a conflicted look on his face before he finally said those words.
