ASTRP -Chapter 109 The Prince Learns About Feng Jingge’s Drugged Condition

The effects of the drug…

Were seriously intense!

She didn’t have an antidote for this kind of thing. Either she endured it by force, or she had to call the estate physician over.

Just as Feng Jingge was about to step into the room, one foot crossing the threshold, Qing Shan happened to walk out.

The two collided head-on. Feng Jingge’s vision blurred, and her unsteady body staggered back two steps.

Qing Shan’s heart tightened. He hurriedly reached out to steady her.

But the moment his hand touched Feng Jingge’s skin, a burning heat traveled through his fingertips.

Qing Shan’s expression changed instantly.

“Miss Feng, why are you burning up like this? Are you sick?!”

“No, I have to go get the Prince!”

The moment Feng Jingge heard that Qing Shan wanted to find Xiao Jinghan, panic flashed through her heart. She immediately grabbed Qing Shan’s arm.

“Go call the estate physician for me. Don’t tell your Prince about this!”

Qing Shan immediately cried out, “Miss Feng… are you joking?!”

“If something happens to you and I don’t tell the Prince, once he finds out later, he’ll skin me alive!”

Feng Jingge tightened her grip on his arm and threatened darkly, “So do you want the Prince to skin you later… or do you want me to skin you right now?!”

“…”

Qing Shan was on the verge of tears.

Why was he so unlucky?!

He had already annoyed the Prince this morning, so he’d specifically come over to follow Feng Jingge around.

Who knew that just when today’s protection mission was about to end and he thought he could finally go home and sleep peacefully—

This would happen at the very end?!

“Miss Feng, this really isn’t something that should be hidden. If the Prince finds out… he really will…”

Feng Jingge gritted her teeth.

“Why does he need to know about this?”

“You don’t say anything, I don’t say anything, and then we add the estate physician…”

At this point, Feng Jingge was nearly unable to endure it anymore.

She bit hard on the tip of her tongue, using the pain to temporarily suppress the evil thoughts rising inside her.

“As long as the three of us keep quiet, no one will know!”

“But—”

Qing Shan still wanted to speak, but Feng Jingge had already run out of patience and kicked him directly in the backside.

“No ‘buts’! Hurry up and get the estate physician!”

Seeing how firm her attitude was, Qing Shan couldn’t argue anymore and could only obey reluctantly.

The moment Feng Jingge saw him leave, she immediately turned and entered the room, heading toward the bathtub filled with cold water.

Her vision blurred again. Her body lost balance, and she fell straight into the tub!

Water splashed everywhere, the cold piercing to the bone.

After choking on water, Feng Jingge instantly regained some clarity. She grabbed the edge of the tub with both hands and used it to pull herself upright, sitting inside the bathtub.

Under the stimulation of the cold water, the scorching heat vanished without a trace, leaving only endless coldness behind.

Feng Jingge shivered violently from the cold and couldn’t bear it anymore, so she stood up.

But the moment her body emerged from the water, the burning heat inside her surged back again, forcing her to sit back down.

After repeating this several times, Qing Shan finally returned carrying the estate physician over his shoulder.

The physician had been jostled so badly along the way that he was dizzy and disoriented, completely clueless about what Qing Shan was trying to do.

Qing Shan had simply rushed into his place, hoisted him up, and run.

The moment the physician’s feet touched the ground again, he felt blood rushing to his head.

He had barely steadied himself when, before he could even see where he was, a hand stretched out in front of him.

Feng Jingge coldly spat out two words:

“Check pulse.”

If not for maintaining Xiao Jinghan’s image as someone who knew nothing about medicine, she would’ve directly explained the detoxification steps herself.

“Prince?”

The physician finally recognized the person before him as “Xiao Jinghan.” Then, seeing that “Xiao Jinghan’s” entire body was submerged in water, he instantly panicked.

“Prince!!! What are you doing now?! Your wounds haven’t fully scabbed over yet—you can’t touch water, you—”

Feng Jingge coldly interrupted the physician’s nonstop rambling.

“This Prince has been affected by aphrodisiac incense. Hurry and treat it!”

“Ah?! Aphrodisiac incense?!”

The physician froze for a moment before reacting. He immediately grabbed Feng Jingge’s wrist and checked her pulse.

After finishing, the physician frowned tightly and reached up to touch Feng Jingge’s forehead.

Then he opened his medicine box, took out a porcelain bottle, and poured out a pill.

“Prince, open your mouth.”

Feng Jingge cooperatively opened her mouth. The pill melted almost instantly after entering.

The next second, an indescribable bitterness spread through her mouth.

Feng Jingge seriously suspected she’d just swallowed gallbladder bile…

Knowing how bitter the medicine was, the physician hurriedly explained,

“This medicine can temporarily suppress the heat inside your body. To fully detoxify it, additional medicinal herbs must be prescribed.”

Feng Jingge: “…”

After speaking, the physician walked to a nearby table, wrote out a prescription, and handed it to Qing Shan.

He instructed Qing Shan to buy and decoct the medicine.

Qing Shan immediately complied.

“Prince, rest well for now. Once Qing Shan buys the medicine and boils it, you’ll be fine after drinking it.”

Feng Jingge nodded.

“Don’t spread today’s matter around.”

The physician nodded knowingly before pushing his medicine box away and leaving.

At last, the burning sensation inside her slowly faded, and Feng Jingge finally felt much more comfortable.

She got out of the bathtub, changed into clean clothes, then lay down on the bed to wait for Qing Shan to bring the medicine.

That wait lasted half an hour.

After drinking the medicine, Feng Jingge gradually drifted into a drowsy sleep.

Still worried, Qing Shan stood guard outside the room, entering every half hour to check whether anything unusual had happened.

During his second check, Feng Jingge finally showed symptoms.

Her eyes were tightly shut, and she continuously muttered incoherently in her sleep.

No matter how Qing Shan called to her, she showed no response.

Panicked, Qing Shan raised his hand, preparing to slap Feng Jingge awake.

Just as his hand lifted and was about to come down, a cold shout rang out from behind him.

“Qing Shan, what are you doing?!”

Qing Shan froze. Turning around, he saw Xiao Jinghan striding over with a dark expression.

Qing Shan glanced sideways at his own raised hand.

Only two words remained in his mind.

It’s over!

It’s over!

He was doomed!

Now even jumping into the Yellow River wouldn’t wash him clean!

Xiao Jinghan stopped before Qing Shan.

“This Prince is asking you—what are you doing?”

Qing Shan snapped back to reality and hurriedly hid his hand behind his back while frantically explaining, “Prince, please listen to your subordinate’s explanation…”

“Miss Feng kept talking in her sleep. Your subordinate was trying to…”

Xiao Jinghan moved to the bedside. Seeing his own body lying there, with an unnatural flush on the cheeks—

One glance was enough to tell she’d been drugged.

The man’s brows knitted tightly together. He raised a hand, and the moment his fingertips touched Feng Jingge’s forehead—

A scorching heat met them.

His eyes darkened instantly as he coldly ordered,

“Drag the estate physician over here for this Prince!”

Qing Shan: “???”

The physician had only just left, and now they wanted him back again?

Of course, Qing Shan only dared think those words internally.

Because if he said them aloud… certain things would be exposed.

So he could only hurriedly answer and once again dash toward the physician’s residence, dragging the barely-asleep physician straight out of bed.

Along the way, the physician cursed furiously.

He felt like Qing Shan was about to shake apart all his old bones.

Meanwhile, Xiao Jinghan sat sideways by the bedside, coldly staring at Feng Jingge, his thin lips pressed into a tight line.

At that moment, Ning An flashed into the room carrying a basin of hot water.

“Prince, the hot water.”

Xiao Jinghan pointed toward a nearby stool.

“Put it there.”
