She refused to marry.

Xiao Xuanjing stiffened, and the ripples suppressed in his heart swept over his entire body.

"Miss Su, your beauty tricks are useless against me." He said, lowering his eyes, and stepped out of the Broken Cloud Platform.

Su Wanwan was annoyed and threw the arrow in her hand in frustration. "The emperor is such a blockhead..."

Jian Qingshan walked over, picked up the arrow from the ground, and threw it back into the quiver.

"Miss Su, you lost the gold beads back then, and now you're trying to curry favor with His Majesty. What exactly is your intention?"

"I... you wouldn't understand even if I told you."

Jian Qingshan scratched his head; he understood perfectly well.

Su Wanwan lifted her skirt and hurried after him, "Your Majesty, please slow down, wait for me..."

Feng Chenjun walked quickly, and Su Wanwan's skirt was a bit long today.

She tripped on the hem of her skirt, twisted her body, and crashed into Feng Chenjun's back.

"Ah... Your Majesty, save me..."

Su Wanwan thought the emperor would catch her, but who knew he would so cruelly turn his body to the side.

She tumbled down dozens of steps.

After rolling around on the ground, he felt dizzy and his eyes were trembling.

Xiao Xuanjing initially thought she did it on purpose, but only after she actually rolled down did his frustration dissipate.

He quickly ran down to check on her injuries.

Fortunately, it was just a minor injury.

He bent down and picked her up.

Su Wanwan wrapped her arms around Feng Chenjun's neck and muttered, "Your Majesty is so heartless..."

"Shut up," Xiao Xuanjing said in a low voice.

"We've kissed, we've hugged, and besides, it was I who took care of you in prison. We've even had physical intimacy. How can you be so heartless as to hold a grudge against me for spitting out tears?" Su Wanwan complained.

"What exactly does Miss Su want now? We've kissed and hugged, is she asking me to come and propose marriage?" Xiao Xuanjing lowered his eyes.

"That's not impossible. Your Majesty comes from a wealthy and powerful family, and if I were to marry into such a prestigious family, I would be able to enjoy wealth and honor at your beck and call..."

"Hmph..." Xiao Xuanjing sneered, "Miss Su said at the welcome banquet that all she wanted in her life was to find someone who would care for her, someone to climb mountains and see rivers, and stroll through streets and alleys..."

"Did I say that?" Su Wanwan frowned, trying to recall.

"Look over there..." Xiao Xuanjing gestured with his chin towards the old locust tree.

"There's nothing there, just a tree..." Su Wanwan said.

"Miss Su drank some wine, climbed the locust tree, and spoke many truths..." Xiao Xuanjing slightly curled the corners of his mouth.

"Words spoken while drunk are not valid..." Su Wanwan said.

Xiao Xuanjing carried her into the warm pavilion and placed her on the bed. "You should rest well. The doctor will come to treat you in a while."

Su Wanwan grasped Feng Chenjun's hand, her eyes pleading, "Your Majesty, please keep me company..."

Xiao Xuanjing sat down and pried her hands away. "Miss Su, please have some self-respect..."

Su Wanwan's gaze was fixed on Feng Chenjun.

She's so heartless; she's gone to such lengths and hasn't shown the slightest bit of emotion.

It seems that if the soft approach doesn't work, we have to resort to sticking.

"No..." Su Wanwan pleaded, holding the emperor's hand in her arms. "If Your Majesty goes to war and returns, I'll probably be back in Suzhou by then. Your Majesty, please don't go..."

She was pouring out her heart when someone came to the door.

"My lord... cough..." Jian Qingshan coughed softly.

Ignoring what others thought, Su Wanwan held onto Feng Chenjun's hand and refused to let go.

It wasn't until the doctor approached and came to check her injuries that she recovered.

"Miss Su, please sit down..." Xiao Xuanjing tried to withdraw his hand.

Su Wanwan sat up straight and tugged at the emperor's hand. "Your Majesty, I've sprained my ankle and injured my back, so I can't bend over to put on my shoes..."

Xiao Xuanjing lowered his eyes and remained motionless.

"Your Majesty...please do it for me..." the doctor said, bowing slightly. He was not an insensitive person.

Xiao Xuanjing hesitated for a moment, then slowly lowered his body.

He took off Su Wanwan's shoes and socks, revealing her fair feet.

My ankle is swollen.

Feng Chenjun's fingertips touched his ankle.

Su Wanwan blushed and bit her lip, a surge of urge rising in her abdomen.

Even when Lu Huai'an helped her put on her shoes, she didn't feel this way. Could it be that her lust for Feng Chenjun has been rekindled?

"Miss Su's injuries are severe. It's best not to move her for the next few days. She should rest in the manor until the medicine is applied and she recovers for three to five days before returning home. She has already suffered a fracture... If she moves around too much, she might end up crippled..."

"Lame?" Su Wanwan snapped out of her thoughts. "Doctor, I'm not short of money. Use the best medicine. If I, a young woman, become lame, wouldn't people laugh at me..."

"Don't worry, as long as Miss Su doesn't run around too much these next few days and applies the medicine properly, she'll naturally be fine..." the doctor reassured her.

"Mmm..." Su Wanwan nodded, wiping away the tears that hadn't yet fallen.

Xiao Xuanjing sat down to the side, "She used the best medicine because I was injured."

"Yes."

Half an hour later, the doctor left, and Jian Qingshan followed him out, tactfully closing the door behind him.

Su Wanwan leaned against the bed, her ankle wrapped in thick ointment, looking like a rice dumpling.

Feng Chenjun held a book in his hand, sipping tea while flipping through it.

Just now, after the doctor had been fiddling with her for a while, she realized that she had also twisted her neck, and the pain was so bad that it affected her daily life.

"Your Majesty, I am thirsty..." Su Wanwan whispered.

"Miss Su injured her ankle, but her hand is not broken," Feng Chenjun said, bowing his head.

"Your Majesty..." Su Wanwan said coquettishly.

"Qingshan, come in and serve tea..." Xiao Xuanjing said to the outside.

"I don't want the green hills, I just want the emperor..." Su Wanwan gritted her teeth and moved closer to the table, "Hiss..." she winced in pain.

What a heartless, insane madman.

"Your Majesty, it hurts..." Su Wanwan pointed, "Your Majesty is also responsible for my injury..."

"Hmph..." Xiao Xuanjing snorted coldly, then helplessly poured her a glass and placed it on the table.

"Thank you, Your Majesty..." Su Wanwan smiled happily and took a small sip.

This tea was poured by the madman, even rarer than imperial decree.

"I'll send someone to take you back in a bit." Xiao Xuanjing finally looked up at her.

"Your Majesty, could we wait a little longer? We need to wait for the anesthesia to take effect, it hurts so much..."

Su Wanwan sat in the warm pavilion for the entire afternoon, rambling on and on.

In the evening, Feng Chenjun went for a walk, took the key from his waist, placed it on the screen, and went out.

Su Wanwan stared at the key on the screen, itching to make a move.

It's right there in front of me; I can just walk over now, reach out, and tuck it into my sleeve.

After hesitating for a long time, he slowly got up and reached for the key.

The door was suddenly pushed open!
