The Prince of Xuan was successfully coerced by the Princess Consort and was willing to drink the medicine obediently!
Everyone in the room, except for the two involved parties, was utterly stunned.
Who among all the imperial physicians in the entire royal family and everyone in the Prince of Xuan's mansion did not know that the Prince was naturally averse to medicine and would vomit whenever he took it?
Chu Qianli picked up the medicine bowl and brought it to Feng Yexuan's front.
The strong, bitter smell of the medicine assailed his senses.
Feng Yexuan's first reaction was to wave his sleeve and push it away.
But as his long fingers moved, his gaze fell upon the expectant light in Chu Qianli's eyes.
Feng Yexuan's heart was slightly stirred.
Qing Ming had said that this woman, for his sake, was not afraid of germs, not afraid of infection, and would even risk her life.
Her devotion to him was so profound that she must have fallen deeply in love.
If he didn't try his best to cooperate, wouldn't he be wasting all her efforts?
Thinking this, Feng Yexuan suppressed the urge to push the medicine bowl away.
He opened his mouth, took the bowl, furrowed his brows, but still managed to drink the medicinal liquid.
Qing Ming and Leng Ji stood guard in the outer room, watching the Prince drink the medicine through the screen.
Their hearts were tightly strung.
They were very nervous.
The Prince... would he vomit?
He definitely would vomit!
As expected, as soon as Feng Yexuan finished the medicine, his face changed immediately.
Even through the screen, they could feel the chilling aura emanating from him.
Qing Ming and Leng Ji were even prepared to immediately send in a basin.
But!
The Prince actually held it in!
Even though it was incredibly difficult to endure!
However, when he met Chu Qianli's clear, bright, watery eyes, the overwhelming nausea was suppressed by his sheer willpower.
He couldn't vomit.
If he vomited, he would be letting down this woman who was so devoted to him.
He absolutely could not vomit!
After an unknown amount of time, the feeling of nausea was finally suppressed.
However, at this point, he was almost completely drained.
He had just woken up, had received an antipyretic injection, and his high fever had just subsided, leaving him with residual warmth.
He had been in a coma for three days and three nights, and all his strength had been used in his tenacious battle against the illness.
He was truly weak all over now.
Chu Qianli helped him lie down again.
As soon as he lay down, that nauseous feeling surged to his throat!
Feng Yexuan wanted to get up, but he truly had no strength left.
But if he didn't get up, he was really going to vomit!
"Li..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, something was suddenly placed into it.
At first, it was bitter.
After holding it for a moment, a refreshing, cool fragrance filled his mouth.
Feng Yexuan furrowed his brows.
This damned woman, stuffing something into his mouth again without his awareness!
Simply audacious!
Strangely, the Prince of Xuan, who was extremely wary of everything, did not immediately spit out what she gave him.
He savored it, and his tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed.
Those outside were still tense. They had clearly felt that the moment the Prince lay down, he had wanted to vomit again!
But now, the Prince... had calmed down?
"What is it?" Feng Yexuan glanced at Chu Qianli.
Because of the cool and comfortable sensation in his mouth, he decided not to question the woman for now!
"Peppermint candy," Chu Qianli said, relieved to see his troubled brows finally relax.
Her lips curved into a smile, "How is it? Doesn't it leave your mouth fragrant and cover up the taste of the medicine?"
The word "medicine" still made Feng Yexuan extremely resistant.
But the strong peppermint fragrance truly filled his entire mouth.
The taste of the medicine seemed to have truly disappeared.
Seeing his brows relax, Chu Qianli felt reassured and picked up the medicine bowl, intending to take it out.
Unexpectedly, from behind her, a deep, hoarse, yet extremely magnetic and alluring voice came:
"You have sacrificed so much for this King, this King... will try to accept you!"
