His Highness the Madman gave in again today.

"Your Highness!"

Before Mo Sangyu could speak, Yan Qing's gruff voice came from outside the door: "Your Highness, wake up! Mr. Gu asked me to summon you to the military camp. They captured someone last night and want you to go and take a look!"

Outside the door, Yan Qing noticed that Feng Xingyu was not in the study, so he went to the bedroom and knocked on the door.

He had a loud voice and even stronger hands, as if he was afraid he wouldn't wake Feng Xingyu, shouting and banging on the door at the same time.

"Your Highness, they said they didn't see you leave the house. Please get up..."

The words abruptly stopped.

Because the door next to it opened.

Yan Qing turned around almost instinctively, looking to the side in a wary posture.

As it turned out, he actually saw... His Highness?

Yan Qing rubbed his eyes and looked again.

It's still Your Highness!

"Your Highness, why...why did you come out of her room?"

Yan Qing lowered his voice and walked over quietly: "Your Highness, you weren't coerced by her, were you?"

Upon seeing the wound on Feng Xingyu's lip, Yan Qing suddenly covered his mouth: "Your Highness, you..."

"Shut up!"

Feng Xingyu walked towards his room with an icy aura: "Go and find Luo Ming for me!"

"oh."

Yan Qing secretly glanced at Mo Sangyu's room before turning to find Luo Ming.

Feng Xingyu went back to his room to change his clothes and came out. Just as he entered the study, Luo Ming came running up, panting.

"Your Highness, I finally understand..."

He entered the study and suddenly noticed Feng Xingyu's swollen lips, immediately changing the subject in surprise: "What happened to your lips? Did the Princess Consort's words distract you again?"

"no."

Feng Xingyu told him to close the door before saying, "Come here and let me see if there's anything wrong with your body."

Upon hearing this, Luo Ming's expression immediately turned serious.

He examined Feng Xingyu by taking his pulse, but his brows furrowed slightly.

"Your Highness, your pulse is a bit strange. These past two days, your internal energy has been almost boiling again. I was worried that with all your injuries, your body wouldn't be able to handle the medicine, but your pulse right now..."

He stopped speaking at this point.

Feng Xingyu withdrew his hand and said in a deep voice, "My true energy has become much stronger, but I don't feel any discomfort this time, and my eye color is normal. Tell me the truth, what exactly is the medicine that Mo Sangyu prescribed for?"

"I came here to tell you something. That prescription is extraordinary. I thought it looked familiar before, and I finally found that damned ancient book yesterday. I spent the whole night searching through it and finally found the prescription..."

Get to the point!

"Oh, the key point is that the prescription is actually the legendary 'Marrow Cleansing' medicine. After drinking it, it can cleanse the body of impurities, reshape the bones and muscles, and transform a person's body to the point of being reborn. However, the premise is that the person can withstand the pain brought by the medicine, which is not something that ordinary people can endure."

"What if you can't handle it?"

"I will die."

Upon hearing this, Feng Xingyu remained silent for a moment.

Mo Sangyu, this woman, is so ruthless to herself.

After Luo Ming finished speaking, he asked, "Your Highness, should we try to get those medicinal herbs back? I'm afraid the Princess Consort's frail body can't handle it, and it might implicate you again."

"Didn't you know she spent the whole afternoon brewing medicine yesterday?"

"Huh? I was looking for ancient books all day yesterday, I didn't know that. No way, she already drank it?"

Luo Ming belatedly realized that he had come to understand some of it.

"So, Your Highness..."

He was so shocked that he stopped breathing, and it took him a while to exhale heavily.

"That was too close."

Next time, if the princess asks him for help, he must find out the details before agreeing.

Fortunately, His Highness turned misfortune into blessing this time; otherwise, he would have been guilty even in death.

"Your Highness, it seems that there have been some changes in your body. Observe for the next two days. If there are no symptoms, then let's stop the medication for now."

Eating like this all the time will cause toxins to accumulate, and sooner or later they will cause a reaction.

If the Crown Princess's actions this time have truly changed His Highness's physique, allowing him to coexist peacefully with that domineering true energy, then he must thank the Crown Princess properly!

"Um."

Having figured out what happened last night, Feng Xingyu went to the military camp.

Gu Jinzhi sent Yan Qing to deliver a message, saying that a suspicious person had been captured in the military camp last night.

That person insisted on seeing Feng Xingyu before he would tell everything.

Inside the tent, a dark-skinned, thin man was tied to a pillar in the middle of the tent.

Feng Xingyu stepped into the tent, his gaze sweeping over the thin, dark-skinned man bound to a pillar.

Although the man was disheveled, there was little fear in his eyes.

"Seventh Prince, you've finally arrived."

Upon meeting Feng Xingyu, instead of offering any explanation, he immediately began to question her.

"Let's be frank. This time, you broke the rules first. You and my master had already reached an agreement that you couldn't be involved in the arena's business, but you still allowed your people to come to our place and swindle us out of more than 70,000 taels of silver in two days. Shouldn't you give our master an explanation?"

Feng Xingyu sat down in the main seat, his expression calm and unwavering, as if listening to a trivial matter that had nothing to do with him.

When the soldiers served tea, he picked it up, took a small sip, and slowly spoke: "As far as I know, she earned her money through her own abilities. How can you say she cheated me?"

"..."

"I did promise your master I wouldn't interfere with the arena, but you're running a business, and my people are just going to have some fun. You can't just stop them from going, can you?"

"..."

Unable to win the argument, the man showed his displeasure.

Feng Xingyu, however, remained indifferent, revealing little emotion.

He smiled softly.

It's been a long time since I've felt this calm.

"Also, the woman in my household was sent by the capital. Her actions are none of my business, so you've really come to the wrong person."

His tone shifted abruptly, his gaze suddenly sharpening like a knife. "But it was you who trespassed into the military camp, attempting to steal military rations... That's what broke my rules and crossed my bottom line. You'll pay the price!"

The man's expression changed slightly, but he forced himself to remain calm: "Seventh Prince, this is all a misunderstanding. Actually, I... I didn't really come to steal military rations..."

"Misunderstand?"

Feng Xingyu interrupted him, a cold smile curving his lips: "Caught red-handed, what misunderstanding is this? According to military regulations, anyone who steals military rations shall be executed! For the sake of your master, I can give you another chance."

He stood up and walked up to the man, looking down at him: "Have your master send ten thousand taels of silver to ransom him. If the money arrives within three days, you will be unharmed; if not…"

He paused, then his gaze fell on the man's hands.

"I'll leave these hands here as punishment. And let your master understand what he can touch, and what he shouldn't even think about."

Upon hearing this, the man was taken aback at first, then chuckled, thinking that Feng Xingyu was just bluffing.

"Seventh Prince, my master is not someone to be trifled with. To fall out with him over such a misunderstanding..."

His words abruptly stopped.

Because he saw Feng Xingyu slightly raise his hand.

The guard beside him drew his sword with a whoosh, the tip pointing directly at his throat.

No intimidation, no nonsense.

They only need Feng Xingyu's command, and the guards will act without hesitation.

The color drained from the man's face little by little.

He finally realized that the seventh prince, who seemed to be exiled by the court and in a difficult situation, was not as wary of his master as he had imagined.

Cold sweat slowly trickled down, soaking his back in an instant.

"Alright... I agree, but my master might not necessarily spend that much money for me..."

"Then there's no other way but to cut off your hands and give them to him."

"..."

The Prince's Residence.

After Feng Xingyu left, Mo Sangyu sat alone, feeling the changes in her body after being cleansed and her marrow cleansed.

I felt completely relaxed, with aches and pains all over my body.

My five senses became more acute, my body felt light, as if I had shed a burden, and my energy and spirit were exceptionally different.

She took a shower and changed into clean clothes first.

Fengmian brought back breakfast.

After finishing her meal, Mo Sangyu sent her away and eagerly began meditating to regulate her breathing.

She first tried to touch the seal within her consciousness, and felt its power. She wanted to break through, but for a moment she didn't know where to start.

This matter cannot be rushed.

She spent the entire day studying the seal in the room, trying to break it with the meager spiritual power of this body, but the seal remained almost completely unmoved.

Even just creating a small crack to allow spiritual energy to slowly leak out would be fine.

Unfortunately, she ultimately underestimated her own strength from her previous life.

However, Mo Sangyu did not give up. For the next few days, apart from eating, sleeping and relieving herself, she spent all her remaining time breaking the seal.

When Feng Mian saw that she had locked herself in her room for so many days, he thought it was because something...inappropriate had happened between her and His Highness that day, and she was acting this way because she couldn't think straight.

She was very worried.

The whole household is talking about this now, so it's understandable that Miss is upset.

When delivering lunch, taking advantage of Mo Sangyu's mealtime and the fact that he wasn't being chased away, Feng Mian quickly spoke up to offer some advice.

"Miss, please don't be like this. I know you're upset, but there's nothing we can do. You are still, after all, the prince's consort in name only. This has happened..."

"What happened?"

Mo Sangyu was completely confused: "What are you talking about?"

"Miss."

Feng Mian stepped forward and tugged at her sleeve: "I saw everything that day. What's done is done, please don't do anything rash..."

"take things too hard?"

Mo Sangyu pointed to her nose: "Me?"

Feng Mian nodded, his eyes filled with deep worry.

"..."

Mo Sangyu had no idea what she had done to cause Feng Mian such a deep misunderstanding.

She couldn't be bothered to explain.

"Look at how good my appetite is, I don't seem like someone who's thinking about something drastic, don't worry unnecessarily."

After hearing what she said, Feng Mian thought about it for a moment and realized that it seemed to be true.

Right.

If he can eat, he probably won't do anything rash.

"Your Highness."

Suddenly, Yuan Zhao's voice came from outside, sounding somewhat tense: "An urgent report from the capital."

After that, they must have gone into the study, because there were no other sounds.

Mo Sangyu frowned slightly upon hearing the words "imperial capital".

Is the message from the capital an imperial edict?

It has nothing to do with her.

She should try to find a way to create a crack in the seal so that she can slowly regain her strength.

After finishing the meal, Mo Sangyu, as usual, began to urge everyone to leave.

"Fengmian, you don't need to come and serve me this afternoon, and don't let anyone else disturb me."

"Miss, are you planning to stay indoors this afternoon?"

"Otherwise what?"

"How about we go for a walk?"

"Go by yourself, and wear more clothes."

"..."

Feng Mian was pushed out of the room by Mo Sangyu.

She sighed silently.

After thinking for a moment, she decided to go out and buy something for the young lady to cheer her up.

This was Feng Mian's first time leaving the manor. He stood in front of the manor gate for a long time before he knew which direction to go.

She hadn't gone far when a figure appeared silently behind her.

He strode forward, hoisted her onto his shoulder, and carried her away.

"what!"

Feng Mian screamed in terror, desperately pounding on the man's back: "Who are you? Put me down! Help!"
