On Our Wedding Night, I Discovered the Crown Prince's Hidden Illness-Chapter 233 - Teasing the Crown Prince

Chapter 233: Chapter 233 Teasing the Crown Prince

Chapter 233: Chapter 233 Teasing the Crown Prince

“I cannot hold on till we reach Prince Mansion,” she said, her voice as thin as a thread, “so I followed Your Highness to the Eastern Palace. I would like to use the bath in Your Highness’s bedroom, and it has to be filled with cold water…”

Before she could finish, Leng Yu Yan closed her eyes and fainted.

The hand that had been hidden in her sleeve slid out…

What Ye Yiheng saw was her palm, punctured like a wasp’s nest, still pierced with several silver needles.

The delicate palm was dotted with beads of blood, a sinister red that was startling.

Under the sunlight, the silver needles even more so emitted a chilling sheen.

Blinding…

And it pained his heart even more!

Ye Yiheng furrowed his brows tightly, lifted her horizontally, and quickly walked towards the bedroom.

Song Guo and Ruofeng came out to meet him: “Your Highness.”

“Change the bath to cold water!” Ye Yiheng ordered in a deep voice, without stopping his steps, “And quickly summon Ling Lang!”

Song Guo and Ruofeng saw the dripping blood from Leng Yu Yan’s drooping fingertips and knew something terrible had happened.

The two exchanged glances and quickly divided their tasks. Ruofeng hurried to Ling Lang’s residence while Song Guo led the eunuchs and palace maids to replace the warm water in the bedroom bath with cold water.

The bath was so large that changing the water was not quickly done.

While Ye Yiheng wiped Leng Yu Yan’s forehead with a cold, wet towel, Ruofeng arrived with Ling Lang.

Ling Lang bowed his hands: “Your Highness, the Commandery Princess, she…”

“What poison is she afflicted by?” Ye Yiheng moved aside from the bedside.

Ling Lang hurried over, took her pulse, removed several silver needles from Leng Yu Yan’s palm, and then painstakingly examined the blood beads.

His brows twisted, his hand shook, and he immediately knelt down: “Your Highness, I am incompetent; I cannot cure this poison!”

Ye Yiheng asked coldly, “What is the poison?”

“Aphrodisiac, known as Extreme Joy Powder.”

“How can it be cured?”

“Through intimate coupling between a man and a woman,” Ling Lang said tremblingly, “With so many needles marks in the commandery princess’s palm, she must have been enduring extreme pain.”

Ye Yiheng delicately wiped Leng Yu Yan’s palm with a handkerchief.

Seeing Your Highness silent, Ling Lang stood up: “Your Highness, shall we step out, and you cure the princess?”

Hearing this, Ruofeng muttered to himself, “Ling Lang, oh Ling Lang, do you not know that His Highness cannot do it?”

Ye Yiheng clenched his fist. If he were to cure her, when she awoke, she would surely hate him!

He asked sternly, “Other than this, is there any other way?”

Ling Lang stated honestly, “This poison is not something ordinary people can endure. If it is endured without being cured, it threatens her life.”

Ye Yiheng paused wiping Leng Yu Yan’s palm: “She mentioned letting me put her into cold water.”

Ling Lang pondered for a while before saying, “Immersing in cold water is indeed a method, but it only treats the symptoms, not the root cause.”

Hearing this, Song Guo, who was carrying cold water, became anxious: “Sir, what do you mean it treats the symptoms but not the root cause?”

Ling Lang spoke the truth: “This poison is vicious, reoccurring every half-month, for three months. Though it will not cause immediate death, once the poison fully manifests, death is certain.”

Ye Yiheng carried Leng Yu Yan and walked towards the bathroom in the back.

Today, he could not do that to her, for if she woke, she would surely despise him.

Three months, sufficient time for him to legitimately marry her.

Then, the poison would naturally be cured.

For now, he could only place her in the cold water bath and plan thereafter.

After walking a few steps, Ye Yiheng spoke out: “Ling Lang, wait here, be on standby.”

Ling Lang bowed respectfully in agreement.

Soon, Ye Yiheng was holding Leng Yu Yan in the icy bath.

Song Guo, standing by, felt extremely anxious: “Your Highness, you cannot soak in cold water; let me call a palace maid to hold the commandery princess.”

The commandery princess was unconscious and unable to sit up in the bath by herself.

However, the Crown Prince normally could not soak in cold water baths, this act greatly worried him!

“I have no need of company, just wait here on the side.”

As Ling Lang might be summoned at any moment, Ye Yiheng did not remove any clothing from Leng Yu Yan.

Thus, it caused no great harm for Song Guo to wait by the edge of the bath.

As two hours passed, and the internal heat gradually subsided, Leng Yu Yan slowly opened her eyes.

Upon opening them, she saw a young man embracing her, resembling an immortal. She raised her hand to touch his face, his eyebrows, his eyes.

“Hey, young man, why are you so handsome?”

Hearing this, Ye Yiheng was taken aback.

Standing by the bath, Song Guo was also stunned. The Commandery Princess didn’t recognize His Highness?

Could it be that the poison had acted, making the Commandery Princess lose her memory?

Thinking this, Song Guo went to summon Ling Lang.

Ling Lang entered and, without looking at the scene in the bath, quickly turned away, explaining to Ye Yiheng, “Your Highness, the Commandery Princess isn’t suffering from memory loss, but from the effects of the Extreme Joy Powder. She’s fallen into an illusion, unable to distinguish reality from fantasy.”

To Leng Yu Yan, Ye Yiheng was the only person in her eyes—everyone and everything outside the bath was unseen by her.

Suddenly, she chuckled softly.

Her laughter was melodious and enticing, tender yet captivating, as if it were the divine music of the Immortal Mansion.

Ye Yiheng didn’t want others to see her this way, not even the eunuchs or palace maids!

He did not even want others to hear her voice!

“All of you leave!” commanded Ye Yiheng in a deep voice.

At his command, Song Guo, Ling Lang, and a number of palace maids who were waiting in the bathhouse began to withdraw.

Leng Yu Yan blinked her shimmering, watery eyes which glowed red, her gaze towards him hazy and blurred.

“Such a handsome young man, may I kiss you?”

She cradled his face, tilted her head slightly, and then bit her crimson, tender lips.

Ye Yiheng grabbed her wrist, “Leng Yu Yan, do you know what you are doing?”

“What am I doing? Flirting with a handsome young man?” She laughed enchantingly, then seemed to get angry, pouting and muttering, “Do you think I’m not pretty, and you don’t want me to flirt with you?”

Seeing his stern face, she pitifully raised a slender white finger, “Just one kiss, only one, and I promise to take responsibility for you after today!”

Ye Yiheng frowned deeply.

It seemed that his decision to send everyone away was very correct!

He, the Crown Prince, being flirted with by a woman—if this got out, would he still have any dignity?

Just then, Leng Yu Yan cradled his face, and her delicate lips landed on his cheek.

Ye Yiheng stiffened. Not the lips?

He had mentally prepared himself, yet she hadn’t kissed him on the lips!

If not for his decision to be a gentleman today, she would have been thoroughly detoxified by him to the point of obliteration.

Even though he decided to be a gentleman, that didn’t mean she had to be one.

Just a kiss on the cheek, did she think that was enough?

Just then, her eyes misty, her lips left his face.

As if possessed, he asked, “Leng Yu Yan, will you kiss again?”

Leng Yu Yan laughed, extending her tender finger to gently touch his face, “I’ve already marked this place, young man, you’re mine now!”

Somehow, waves rippled through Ye Yiheng’s heart.

“I am yours!”

Hearing this, she seemed very content, narrowed her eyes, tilted her head, and leaned on his shoulder, drifting off to sleep.

Seeing this, Ye Yiheng quickly called, “Someone!”

Ling Lang and Song Guo hurried inside.

After taking her pulse, Ling Lang shook his head, “Your Highness, the poison in the Commandery Princess has only released one wave, there are still two more to come.”

Ye Yiheng asked, “You mean, the Extreme Joy Powder acts every half month, and each time there are three waves?”

Ling Lang answered, “Exactly so, each wave more severe than the last.”
