The next morning, Xueyan returned to Jizhou. Because Emperor Ji Ren passed away, Ji Guo had to keep the national mourning for three years. Xueyan was robbed halfway and did not formally marry Ji Xian, so she was not considered a formal princess.

Xueyan walked on the main street of Jizhou and occasionally heard people talking about King Ji Xian marrying a monster and killing Emperor Ji Ren.

"Yes, my family has a relative in Yao Town. It said that the monster was still killing people and setting fires in Yao Town. It was wanted by the government. This matter is absolutely true."

"Maybe that monster comes from Bihua Mountain in Yao Town. I heard that the mountain is so weird!"

"It is said that the monster is so beautiful that he is fascinated by King Ji Xian."

"What's the use of just looking good? It's not a monster that harms the country and the people."

These words sounded like a thunderbolt in the sky. Everyone said that she was a monster in the streets and alleys. She didn't know how these words were circulated. But even if Ji Xian believed in her, she could not resist the fear of people's words. Ji Xian was about to be emperor. She could not let Ji Xian's reputation be damaged. The front was the King Ji Mansion. Why not say goodbye without saying goodbye.

Xueyan turned around and left sadly. She felt that she was a disaster star, carrying all the misfortunes in the world.

Xueyan was desolate, and several masked killers suddenly jumped off the roof and surrounded her.

"Who are you?" Xueyan asked loudly in front of these killers in black.

Master Wu is dead, and these people are scattered with the aura of witchcraft. Could it be the group of witchcraft masters under Master Wu?

"Stop talking nonsense, take your life!" Several people looked at each other, rushed up together, and took Xueyan's life.

The people on the street saw someone fighting and left as if they ran away. Xue Yan retreated repeatedly. The injury had not healed completely and had lost his spiritual power. Behind him was the wall. Xue Yan was already unable to avoid it. The light of witchcraft was imminent, and a figure blocked Xue Yan, which was Ji Xian.

He was only concerned about rushing over to protect Xueyan, but put himself in danger. The power of witchcraft was approaching, and there was no room for a fight back. Ji Xian took the attack of witchcraft honestly.

Ji Xian staggered a few steps in the tip of the sword, then raised his sword and pointed it at the men in black, preventing them from getting close. The defending army of Jizhou City heard the sound here and hurried over, surrounded several men in black. The killers looked at each other and ran away with their light skills.

Ji Xian was a little unsteady, so Xueyan supported him.

"I finally found you, Xueyan, are you okay?" Ji Xian looked at Xueyan with joy in his eyes.

"I... is very good." Xueyan only felt her nose sour. The person she had hurt repeatedly, saved her again regardless of danger. He really resisted such heavy witchcraft. How could he bear it?

"That's good." Ji Xian said softly, his eyes slowly closed. He was seriously injured, his body slipped down limply, and he had fainted.

The defending army escorted Ji Xian all the way, and Ji Xian was sent back to the palace. The imperial doctors went in and out, but could not think of a treatment method. Ji Xian's injuries were caused by witchcraft. All the imperial doctors on earth were helpless. Xueyan knelt at the gate of the palace and asked to heal Ji Xian.

"If it weren't for your trouble, how could my prince be so hurt!" The empress dowager pointed at Xueyan in anger.

Xueyan just knelt down and listened to the instructions, but did not defend her. Caier once told Xueyan that Ji Xian's biological mother, the former legitimate empress, had long passed away. Emperor Ji Ren's current step-grandmother is not Ji Xian's biological mother, but the sister of Wu Guoshi. Now Ji Xian is called emperor and she is already the queen mother. She also knows that Wu Guoshi died because of Xueyan. She must not let Xueyan go. Liangzi is already married. Since Xueyan has come and met her again, it is impossible for him to leave the palace alive. However, Xueyan only wants to heal Ji Xian's wounds, and she doesn't want Ji Xian to die because of herself.

"Now, you are a demon all over the streets and alleys. What kind of face do you have to come to find my prince?"

"Don't calm down, I can only cure Ji Xian's injury. Please let me go in and see him." Xueyan knelt down again and again, just across a palace gate, but it seemed to be separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, and was out of reach.

"Don't think about it." The Queen Mother said angrily. "You are harming the country and the people and plotting to murder the emperor. I can ask someone to drag you out and behead you now!"

"I'm not afraid of death, but please let me save him first." Xueyan

He shouted loudly, "The Queen Mother is the sister of Master Wu, and I believe he knows how terrible it is to hurt people. If it delays the time, his life will be in danger."

"Ha, don't even lie to me. The imperial doctor is helpless. What can you do if you are just a little demon?" The Queen Mother pressed step by step. "You just want to see him and let him ensure you can leave here alive. Have you forgotten that he will hurt this way, thanks to you!"

"I am willing to issue a military order. If the doctor cannot cure him, I am willing to be buried with you." Xueyan begged anxiously. "Please help the Queen Mother!"

"Hmph! Even if you have high medical skills, you won't want to see him!"

"You tried every means to stop me, but King Ji Xian is innocent. Doesn't the Queen Mother want him to wake up?" I couldn't care about it, Xue Yan asked loudly without hesitation.

"You...you are talking nonsense!" The empress dowager was a little panicked when she heard this. She had nothing to say, and Ji Xian had no biological mother, but was filial. He was also the best and most capable of taking on the great responsibilities among the princes. Only when Ji Xian was alive could her position as the empress dowager be firmly held.

"If you want to save him, you don't know if you can." The Queen Mother thought for a moment and whispered maliciously. "Unless..."

"Unless what?" Xueyan asked anxiously. Ji Xian's injury could not be delayed anymore. No matter what request was made, Xueyan was willing to agree.

"If you can promise me, even if you cure Ji Xian, you must die. Are you willing?"

"I do, I do." Xueyan straightened her body and replied loudly without hesitation. "As long as you can let me save him, I am willing to die."

"Okay, then just say it's up!" The empress dowager smiled thornyly on the corner of her mouth. Even if Xueyan didn't agree to her, she would do everything possible to kill her and avenge her brother after healing Ji Xian.

"One word is determined!" Xueyan was really tired. Her cursed fate should end. Before that, she had to pull Ji Xian back from the gates of hell.

All the conversation at the palace gate was heard by Ji Xian, who was lying in the bedroom. Ji Xian was already very weak and could no longer protect Xueyan. He whispered to his confidant and put a token in his hand. "Be sure to whip it up and hand this token to General Ye Fengye in his hand, go quickly!"

Xueyan came to Ji Xian's bedroom as she wished, but she did not mention the agreement between her and the empress dowager. Ji Xian was very hurt. She didn't want Ji Xian to worry about her affairs. Although she lost her spiritual power, her medical skills were still there. Ji Xian gradually improved under Xue Yan's treatment.

"Will you still feel uncomfortable?" Xueyan stuffed a soft pillow behind Ji Xian and helped him sit up.

Ji Xian shook his head, his face was still very pale and he lost a lot of weight. "You don't like life in the palace, do you?"

"No, no." Xueyan shook her head and squeezed out a smile. "The people in the palace treat me well. They respect me as the future queen. How dare they neglect me?" Xueyan comforted Ji Xian and smiled bitterly in her heart. She didn't want Ji Xian to worry, she just hoped that he could maintain a good health. The people of Ji State were still waiting for him.

Ji Xian smiled apologetically. Xue Yan was kind-hearted. This deep palace garden was really not where she should live. Such a girl should fly freely. Ji Xian sighed secretly in her heart.

He is about to succeed to the throne, and he can no longer force Xueyan to stay by his side. If he can't get anything, let Xueyan pursue it.

On the surface, it is said that Xueyan is already a quasi-princess. According to the rules, three years later, she will marry into the palace after the national mourning period and become the queen of Emperor Ji Xian. What a honor. Everyone in the palace also knows Ji Xian’s deep affection for her, and everyone respects her very much.

Only Xueyan herself knew that Ji Xian was dying when she recovered. This was her agreement with the Empress Dowager and the price for her to take care of Ji Xian.

Ji Xian also knew the pain in Xueyan's heart. He could hear clearly the conversation she had with the empress dowager that day, but he did not tell the secret, and Xueyan himself did not mention it. Ji Xian saw her kindness and hurt her heart.
