The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1974

Chapter 1974: Chapter 985: Scheming Xiao Ji (Xinyang vs. Xiao Ji Extra)

The saintess calculated everything but miscalculated one move, ending up preparing a wedding dress for Long Yi, who appeared out of nowhere.

Since the potion originated from Dongyi, naturally its effectiveness is greater there.

After Xiao Ji fell asleep, he started dreaming with all scenes being his last "fleeting glimpse".

Handsome Long Yi, adorable Long Yi, super fierce Long Yi...

In short, everywhere was Long Yi.

This was the potion’s effect, irresistible by human power.

When he woke up, Long Yi’s impression was deeply ingrained in his mind, impossible to erase.

"You’re awake?"

Princess Xinyang’s voice sounded beside him.

He opened his eyes and saw that he was still in the saintess’s inner hall, lying on a small bamboo bed covered with tiger skin, and a thick blanket covering him.

Charcoal was burning in the hall, so it wasn’t cold at all.

He looked at Qin Fengwan, glanced around, and swore that his gaze unintentionally swept over the saintess’s bedchamber.

Princess Xinyang chuckled, "You still want to sleep in that woman’s bed?"

Xiao Ji, inexplicably getting scolded: "..." What kind of situation is this?

"Where’s Long Yi?" he instinctively asked.

Only after asking did he realize it wasn’t right; how could he ask about Long Yi first? He should have asked how Qin Fengwan got here.

Although the answer must be that Long Yi brought her over.

Princess Xinyang hadn’t noticed anything unusual yet, thinking that he had seen Long Yi before fainting and asked about him out of habit upon waking.

She said, "Long Yi and Zhenzhen went to find Xiao Ming’s antidote. Zhenzhen said it was very dangerous earlier; the saintess seemed to want to harm you, luckily, they arrived in time."

Xiao Ji wanted to ask why Long Yi didn’t wait for him but held it back.

What’s going on, for crying out loud?

If he continued to ask, what would Qin Fengwan think of him?

Suppressing his concern for Long Yi, he asked her, "Did Long Yi bring you over?"

There we go, every sentence involves Long Yi.

Princess Xinyang still being innocent: "Mhm, without alerting anyone, they thought you were staying the night with the saintess, so they didn’t dare ask. The saintess was knocked unconscious by Long Yi and hasn’t woken up in the secret room."

She explained in detail, probably seeing his injuries and wanting to save him the strength to ask questions.

"No," he pinched his brow, just about to explain, when Long Yi returned with the little princess from Dongyi. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

In a flash, he kicked off the blanket and rushed to Long Yi’s side: "Mengmeng!"

He wanted to cut himself down!

Long Yi, unexpectedly called by a pet name: "..."

The little princess from Dongyi, hearing the pet name unexpectedly: "..."

And Princess Xinyang, completely bewildered by her husband’s strange behavior: "..."

Xiao Ji used all his might to banish the saintess from his mind, which accidentally benefited Long Yi, and now he had to use all his might again to explain the effects of the potion on him.

Of course, he omitted that he kept recalling Qin Fengwan and just said he took the potion, and Long Yi appeared.

The little princess from Dongyi suddenly realized, "Oh, that’s why you fainted. You’re doomed! You’ve been poisoned by Dongyi’s most potent drug; you’re done for!"

Princess Xinyang’s face turned pale, "Isn’t there an antidote for this drug?"

She remembered something about white and black medicine?

The little princess from Dongyi shook her head, "There’s no antidote, you must be mistaken. Although there are medicines with opposite effects that can cause aversion, using them as an antidote can lead to mental confusion and, in severe cases, turn someone into a fool."
