Prince, Do You Still Need a Prisoner

"Your Highness, it's time for you to change the medicine!" Ever since she had changed his medicine that day, the matter of changing his medicine had fallen on her shoulders.

When she came in, Gu Junxiu was leaning on the bed, allowing her to play with his hands without the slightest bit of discomfort.

"It's already scabbed. It should be ready soon."

Ruan Xiaonuan had long gotten used to seeing his naked chest, so she asked with a normal expression, no longer flustered.

Gu Junxiu felt that her slightly cold fingers had touched his skin, and his heart suddenly became extremely soft. When he spoke, he also became a bit more gentle. He said in a very soft voice,

"En!" With just one light word, she could hear the charm in his voice.

She didn't know what had happened recently, but she had always been attracted to him intentionally or unintentionally. She knew she couldn't go on like this, but she couldn't help herself.

"Yes!"

Due to her previous experiences, her hands and feet had become a lot faster and a lot better for the first time. When she was about to pack up all the bottles and jars and leave, she unknowingly stumbled and directly sat in his arms. She hurriedly said,

"Is your wound alright?" Although he was only this small, if he were to press it against the wound, then all that effort would have been wasted.

"Kid, I can't believe you care so much about This King." As Gu Junxiu whispered into her ears, her eyes slowly turned red with happiness.

Ruan Xiaonuan's heart tightened, because she could tell from his tone just now that something bad was definitely going to happen. She was still holding those porcelain bottles in her hands, so she really wanted to leave his embrace. But Gu Junxiu suddenly said with a hoarse voice:

"Don't move!"

She was so frightened that she immediately quieted down. She carefully avoided his wound, and only after being slightly further away from him did she open her mouth and say,

"Be quiet!" She was once again acting so domineering when she first entered the palace.

Gu Junxiu opened and closed his mouth as he stared at her red lips. Taking the opportunity when he wasn't prepared, he stopped her from continuing any further. In the end, all of Ruan Xiaonuan's words were drowned in her mouth.

"Your Highness!" Chu Ying's voice broke the two's affectionate feelings, and she looked at the two on the bed in disbelief. Before anyone could even react, they had actually slapped Ruan Xiaonuan, as if this wasn't enough to satisfy her, and she wanted to slap the other side of her face as well. But when Gu Junxiu grabbed her arm, he looked at her and said coldly:

"You're too presumptuous!" Chu Ying's big eyes were immediately filled with tears, and she said while crying:

"Your Highness, he is only a eunuch, but he cannot be called a complete person. Why are you so infatuated with him?" She hatefully said while looking at Ruan Xiaonuan.

Gu Junxiu had never thought of exposing her female body, so he did not plan to answer her question. He just held her hand and said,

"This is the Zhaoyang Palace, it's not your place to say anything!"

Ruan Xiaonuan saw that Chu Ying was about to cry. As long as she was a beauty, no matter what, she was still a beauty. She was born to love beautiful things, and of course that included people. So she said this to Gu Junxiu, ignoring the burning pain on her face.

"Forget it, let her go." After she finished speaking, she realized why she looked so much like those white lotuses in the novels. Thinking of this, she felt a chill run down her spine. She immediately stood there, not wanting to interrupt anymore.

Chu Ying, however, completely ignored her kindness and stared at her with disgust as she spoke.

"I don't need you, a androgynous one, to control me!" After saying that, he left indignantly. Ruan Xiaonuan could clearly see the red marks on her wrist, and could not help but to say with worry.

"She'll be fine, right?" Although Chu Ying had always been harming her, it had always been a small matter and she had always been safe and sound. She had always thought that the two of them had not yet reached that point of incompatibility.

"You don't even know your own business, why do you like to meddle in other people's business so much?"

Ruan Xiaonuan lowered her head, extremely dissatisfied with his reprimand, and complained in her small voice.

"She was your beauty in the first place, but she didn't even care for it."

Gu Junxiu heard her muttering to himself, but he didn't hear what he was saying clearly, and only made wild guesses.

"You little fellow, could it be that you're jealous?" Ruan Xiaonuan knew what Chu Ying was thinking towards him, and his heart was indeed very uncomfortable, but even without her, Gu Junxiu would not even put himself in her heart, because there was already someone in his heart. Even though he had never seen that girl's face before, he must have really liked her and couldn't forget about her.

Her heart instantly turned cold and he was no longer in the mood to stay. He carried the pill out with a normal expression. Seeing her sudden change in expression, Gu Junxiu finally understood what was called a woman's capriciousness.

In the past, he had seen too much competition between concubines and felt that women were extremely tiresome. But now, he was actually enjoying her small temper. He looked at her back with an endless smile.

Suddenly, he remembered the obvious handprint on her face, Gu Junxiu frowned, and called Xiao Qi in.

"Send that Jade Muscle Paste over to her." Although he didn't say his name, he understood who his master was referring to.

"Your Highness, the Jade Muscle Meat Ointment is so precious, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to give it to him." Xiao Qi had always been by Gu Junxiu's side as well. He couldn't stand the fact that actually gave such a precious thing to a eunuch, so he could not suppress the displeasure in his heart. No matter what he thought, he immediately expressed it.

Sure enough, after he finished speaking, Gu Junxiu's eyes grew cold and her voice became cold in an instant as she spoke to him.

"This is This King's personal matter."

This was the first time he had mentioned this to his personal guard. Xiao Qi knew that his master was angry, and did not dare to continue with this matter. He left with a bottle of medicine in his heart, slightly disappointed.

When Ruan Xiaonuan went out, her face was as swollen as a bun, which attracted a lot of attention. Furthermore, she had also come out of Gu Junxiu's place, so the spectators were all guessing whether or not she would be kicked out of Zhaoyang Palace. But when they saw Xiao Qi chasing them from behind, they immediately scattered like birds and beasts.

Ruan Xiaonuan expressionlessly received the object in Xiao Qi's hands, and turned to leave. He effortlessly pulled him down and said,

"Do you know how precious an ointment is? In the entire palace, there are only three bottles, which were given to His Highness by the late emperor, and which he has never used. Now that he has bestowed it upon you, a mere eunuch, don't you have a single word of thanks? " Xiao Qi just could not bear to see his expression, and said without thinking.
