fore managing to squeak out, “I… Do I have a name”Under the afterglow of the setting sun, Qingxuan laughed like a fairy.Qingxuan lightly patted his head: "Yunsheng, wake up. After we eat, we still hav...In the morning, Namgung Yeop made his bedsheets dirty, and she even threw them in the yard.

The smell of mildew emanating from the sheets wafted out into the yard.

Grandma and Chun Tao both know about Nanguang Ye's current condition. Smelling the stench, both of them frowned and pushed her into the yard.

She slumped to the ground, clutching the millennium ginseng in her arms, and continued to sob: "The Wangye's current condition, even if propped up with a millennium ginseng, won't be much better. It's just prolonging his life, waiting to die! Why is my life so wretched I don't want to stay here. Let me out!"

"Grandmother looked at her with disapproval: 'No matter what state the King is in now, marrying him is your good fortune.'"

Qingxuan continued to cry: "If this is considered good fortune, I must have killed and set fires in my past life and owed the King a life. Why is my life so miserable!"

Not far from the courtyard gate, there were guards on duty. Qingxuan couldn't get out, nor could she escape. Lao Mam and Chun Tao were too lazy to even look at her again and turned to leave.

After walking for a while, Qingxuan finally stopped crying.

Her face was streaked with tears, she intended to go into the house and fetch a basin of water to wash her face.

However, upon entering the room, she discovered that Nangong Ye, who was the only one able to move her neck and head, was using the back of her head to face her.

"...

"

Nangong Ye had just heard her footsteps as she entered the room, and he turned his head as hard as he could.

Then, a low voice echoed through the room: “If you want to leave, there is a secret passage in this house. You can go now.”

She paused in her steps, clutching the thousand-year ginseng.

Then Nan Gong Ye heard the sound of her walking towards him.

Her hand struck the back of my head hard.

"Your neurotoxin only paralyzes you; it doesn't harm your brain. I put on a show for them, and you actually believed it"

A complex emotion flashed across his eyes.

Did she really never think about leaving from the start

"You... aren't you really going to leave"

Qingxuan jabbed him hard on the back of the head again: "I told you I'm going to cure your illness. Then, I can get half your fortune and travel the world, enjoying all the good things life has to offer. Why would I leave now"

Before he could speak, Qingxuan continued explaining: “Jiang Fei is currently inquiring about your situation through me. If I really seem calm and composed, she will become suspicious. Then, you would be in danger. Jiang Fei wants you dead, you should know that very well.”

She spoke, glancing down at the millennium ginseng she held in her arms.

This millennium ginseng is indeed genuine, but it's completely unsuitable for Nan Gong Ye to consume. Nan Gong Ye's body is extremely depleted. Taking this ginseng will only unleash all of his remaining energy, like a flickering lamp, burning through its meager oil supply. It will release light for a short time, then go out completely.

The imperial concubine ginger is so cunning.

After hearing her explanation, Nangong Ye gritted his teeth and turned his head desperately.

His eyes turned cold: “She has always wanted me dead.”

Qingxuan hurriedly asked, "You've become like this, was it her fault"

"She isn't capable of that yet," Nan Gong Ye snorted coldly.

Then who hurt you like this

She's been pondering this matter these past few days. Regarding Nangong Ye's past, she only knew a little from the original owner's memories. And those stories about Nangong Ye were all folk tales. Whether they were true or false was still uncertain.

Qingxuan thought she could get the answer from Nan Gong Ye, but Nan Gong Ye avoided the topic.

"If you can truly cure me, I will tell you more. If you cannot, know this: you will be in greater danger for learning of it."

He had already said his piece, and she didn't ask any more.

She then turned her attention to the millennium ginseng.

This millennium ginseng can't be wasted. Nangong Ye might not be able to use it now, but that doesn't mean she can't.

Over the years, this body has been severely depleted. This millennium ginseng stewed with old hen is a great tonic for her.

It's just...

This old hen is hard to find, and she can't ask Chun Tao for a live chicken, lest it raise suspicion.

After some thought, the sound of a yellow oriole singing outside her window caught her attention.

There you go!

Qing Xuan turned her head and asked Nangong Ye, "Have you ever eaten yellow oriole meat"suddenly stopped."Nan Gong Ye!"Qingxuan was so frightened that her face turned pale. Nangong Ye's heart suddenly stopped, which had something to do with the poison still remaining in his body. Luckily...
