"So long?" Liu Ying was surprised: "Is there no other way?"

"This is a punishment, not a reward. Can I still bargain for you?" Wuduzi rolled his eyes at Liuying.

After thinking for a while, he then said: "According to the severity of your master's injury, hanging upside down for one day should be enough. I'm warning you, I'll take care of your master. He'll be missing an arm or a leg or something."

It doesn't matter, it's different now. The more seriously injured he is, the higher the cost will be for my grandma to save him. She might hang herself in your palace one day."

Liu Ying was still frightened after hearing this. He didn't know what to ask for a long time. It took him a long time before he said: "Then the princess also treated the prince before. Why haven't I seen her? Well, punishing myself like this."

Wuduzi didn't want to reveal more about his master's affairs, so he waved his hand and said, "That's different. In short, you should let your master pay attention, and don't let your princess know that you came to see me."

Seeing that he was unwilling to say anything, Liu Ying could understand that he was not joking and nodded even though he was still confused.

When Liu Ying was about to leave, he was suddenly stopped again.

When he turned around, he saw it was the princess's newly adopted apprentice, Nie Hanxing.

"Hello, brother guard, this is my invitation to Master. I was originally going to deliver it in person. Since you are here, please pass it on." Nie Hanxing handed over the invitation with both hands.

Liu Ying opened it, took a look, and nodded: "I will give it to the princess."

Nie Hanxing quickly thanked him.

When Liu Ying returned to the palace, he deliberately went around to the tree again and hid not far away. Seeing that the princess was still hanging there motionless on the tree, he sighed in his heart.

These two people, one resisted the decree and the other was punished for the other, why didn't they tell them directly, and they kept it secret from each other.

When the princess said that the master would sleep for four hours, he didn't think there was anything unusual. It wasn't until Wu Duzi said that she might have to hang him up for four or five hours that he realized it.

These two people are really awkward. They obviously want to do the best for each other, but why do they still hide it?

Liu Ying did not stay for long. His duty was to protect his master and he could not be too far away. After returning to the main courtyard, he hid in the darkness and looked at the sunlight above his head from time to time.

Normally, I only feel that the day is not that difficult, but this time, my heart feels heavy.

When Zhan Beixiao woke up, the room was dark. He couldn't estimate the time for a while, and he didn't understand why he slept for so long.

On the other hand, Jing Yu stood up immediately when he heard the movement and tentatively called in a low voice: "Senior brother?"

"Um."

Hearing the response, Jing Yu breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and lit the lamp on the table.

With the bright light, Zhan Beixiao slowly sat up and felt that the burning tingling sensation on his back was no longer there, and there was still a slight cooling sensation.

"Brother, how does your back feel? Is there anything abnormal?" Jing Yu asked.

"No."

Seeing him sitting upright like this, Jing Yu quickly said: "Senior brother, your back is so seriously injured, you'd better lie down and rest."

"No problem," Zhan Beixiao said, and asked casually, "Where is she."

"He? Did you mean Liu Ying? He should be outside the door." Jing Yu responded.

Zhan Beixiao pinched his eyebrows and did not explain. He just called: "Liu Ying."

Liu Ying immediately opened the door and came in, saluting respectfully: "Master."

"Where's the princess?"

Liuying whispered back: "Princess, you should go back and rest now."

After hearing this, Zhan Beixiao hadn't spoken yet, but Jing Yu sneered: "Oh, it seems that woman's wishful thinking has failed. She probably thought that senior brother would be able to see her miserable state when he woke up, and he would feel sorry for her.

It's a pity, but it's a pity that in the end it's just your own fault."

"What's going on?" Zhan Beixiao's expression changed slightly, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.

Naturally, Jing Yu would not miss the incident of belittling Feng Qinghua. He directly told the incident about Feng Qinghua hanging himself upside down on the tree. He described it in great detail. He even told the previous conversation without noticing at all.

After Zhan Beixiao heard these words, his hands on his knees were already clenched tightly.

"She didn't say why?"

"What reason can she have? She just knows that the emperor wants you to divorce her, and she is afraid that you will suddenly divorce her one day, so she will suffer misfortune. Otherwise, why did she take the initiative to enter the clan mansion first, and now

I deliberately made myself like that under your nose." Jing Yu said contemptuously.

Liu Ying suddenly said: "That's not the case."

The two pairs of eyes on the other side looked over.

Liu Ying licked the corners of his dry and flaky lips, and said with some difficulty: "The princess didn't think that way. She took the initiative to hang herself up there for the prince."

Zhan Beixiao's pupils suddenly dilated and his heart sank suddenly.

Jing Yu on the side didn't believe it, and snorted coldly: "Liu Ying, did that woman give you any benefits? Didn't you hate her as much as I did before? How come you speak for her now, and you even learned to talk to her for her sake?"

Your master lied."

"Shut up!" Zhan Beixiao said coldly and angrily.

Jing Yu pursed his lips and did not speak, but his eyes were full of dissatisfaction. He stared at Liu Ying and signaled to him: I am standing here. If you dare to continue lying, I will definitely expose you.

Zhan Beixiao said: "Say."

Liu Ying said: "My subordinates went to see Senior Wuduzi and asked the princess why she did this method. The senior's first sentence was to ask me angrily if it was the master who was injured. That's when I found out that the princess was doing it for my master.

You are punishing yourself."

"Funny." Jing Yu rolled his eyes, but the next moment his acupuncture points were tapped, and he could only stand aside and say nothing.

Liu Ying continued: "Senior didn't give any specific details. He just asked his subordinates to tell the prince that the more serious your injuries are, the more severe the punishment from the princess will be. I think it may be related to the medicine the princess prepared for you."

Who is Zhan Beixiao? How could he not guess that the medicine on his body was written by Feng Qinghua? He could know everything at a glance. He just didn't expect that it would have such a big impact.

Zhan Beixiao's throat rolled up and he remained silent for a while, but the low air pressure around him showed how uneasy he was at the moment.

Liu Ying said cautiously: "Senior also said that my subordinates should not let the princess know that they had gone to find her."

Zhan Beixiao said in a deep tone: "How long has she been hanging?"

"More than four hours."

"How long have I slept?"

"The princess came down not long before you woke up." Liu Ying replied.

If there's anything unclear, Feng Qinghua didn't want Zhan Beixiao to know about it at all.
