ZiLi's illness came and went quickly, Hong Xu had not yet left the Imperial court, and he was already slowly waking up. When he opened his eyes, he saw the palace maids and eunuchs throughout the room trembling with fear, and Hong Qing, who was sitting beside him, with a rare serious expression.

“But you should not move now! So, why don’t you rest here for now?”

“No, I want to go back to Ming Yang Palace! I want to go back to Ming Yang Palace! I want to go back to Ming Yang Palace! I want to go back to Ming Yang Palace! I want to go back to Ming Yang Palace! Ah, I want to go back to Ming Yang Palace!” ZiLi kept screaming weakly in unbroken succession in a hoarse voice because of last night, with the intention of never giving up until his goal was achieved. The bulging veins on his neck made people feel both distressed and pity for him!

“Okay, okay, okay, okay! Don’t scream anymore, I’ll take you back right away!” Hong Qing was unable to resist anymore and quickly agreed to ZiLi’s request. Then he ordered the palace maids to fetch a soft stretcher.

As soon as ZiLi saw that thing, he stopped screaming. Of course, he did not want to let others know what had happened last night, but now they wanted to parade through the streets, with him lying on top of that thing, back to the Ming Yang Palace. Was that not the same as beating gongs and drums to spread the news? He would rather die than let that happen!

“No, ah―― I don’t want to go back like that, ah――” ZiLi immediately cried out sniveling and in tears.

“All right, all right, all right, you don’t have to, you don’t have to go like that!” Hong Qing got a headache; he had never met anyone who was so difficult to please before. But seeing the tearful man, crying in a total mess, on the bed made him compromise immediately! “If you don't want to use a stretcher, shall I carry you back?”

ZiLi turned to him sobbing and said, “Just don’t― Just don’t let anyone see us!”

And thus, Hong Qing wrapped ZiLi tightly with a quilt, revealing only his nose for breathing, then picked up the big cotton ball and used Qingqong 1 to leap through the glazed tiles cornices 2 towards Ming Yang Palace.

When ZiLi finally returned to Ming Yang Palace as he had wished, not only did he not feel a little excited, he also felt very aggrieved instead! Especially when he saw Ming Yue with a worried face, the grievances in his heart grew even stronger.

Ming Yue was worried about ZiLi, who had not returned all night. When she suddenly saw the Ninth Prince descending from the sky, still holding a bundle of cotton quilts in his arms, she could not help but be flabbergasted. Just as she was about to step forward to give a salute, she suddenly saw a small head pop out of the quilt, glancing left and right, and then looking at her with an aggrieved expression.

“Let's talk about it when we get inside. He needs a good rest!” Hong Qing said.

“Put me down, you― you can leave. I― don’t want to see you!”

ZiLi stared at Hong Qing without saying a word, thinking about the fact that Hong Qing should have nothing to do with what happened, but even if he had nothing to do with last night, wasn’t his surname still Hong? In any case, ZiLi currently disliked anything to do with Hong Xu.

Hong Qing looked at ZiLi somewhat innocently and said, “All right then, take good care of yourself and above all don’t get worked up. I’ll will be going then. If anything happens to you, don’t hesitate to send someone to my residence 3 immediately to look for me.” As he spoke, he fished out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom and put it on the table and continued to say, “Also, these are Mind Calming Pills given by Imperial Physician Li, you must remember to take one every day!”

When Hong Qing finally had left with great difficulty, ZiLi immediately removed the hard expression from his face and sobbed miserably to Ming Yue, saying, “I want to take a bath!”

“Yes― yes, Your Highness, Ming Yue will immediately go and prepare it for you.” Knowing that ZiLi did not want to tell anything about last night, Ming Yue could only put away her questions and concentrate on preparing the bathing necessities.

After a while, a large wooden barrel filled with hot water was placed in ZiLi's bedroom, and she said to him, “It seems that now it is not suitable for His Highness to take a bath in the usual place, so Ming Yue has asked someone to bring a bathtub into the bedroom so that Your Highness can take a bath here.”

“Yes, I see, you can all leave, I’ll do it myself.”

“As you wish, Your Highness.”
