ang gave a meaningful smile and slowly walked closer to him, whispering softly, "Sir, I don't need to know who you are, but...I actually understand what you want to do But do you know why I am so weal...The flower bud smiled at An Xuetang, teasingly saying, "How about it Are you still certain that your Lord Beijng is not a stingy person"

"Ahem"

An Xuetang coughed awkwardly, "That... uhm... My little Jing has been a bit naive lately, it's nothing, nothing at all. I'll have a good talk with him when we get back. How could he treat Shi Yi like this Right"

Hua Duo'er and Ning'er giggled, covering their mouths. Hua Duo'er then returned to the topic, "By the way, A Tang, you came to find me so early, is something wrong"

At this point, An Xuetang glanced at Ning'er. Very considerate, Ning'er took Hua Duoer's maid Xiaohong and left.

Only An Xue Tang and Huāduǒ'er remained in the room. An Xue Tang didn't beat around the bush with Huāduǒ'er; she went straight to the point, "Duǒ'er, you should know that I'm going to perform surgery on the Crown Prince today, right"

There was a strange sadness in Huāduō's expression, "Well, I know."

"What do you really think Are you truly not going to see him at all Don't you know that once this surgery is done and he recovers a bit, my Ah Jing will send him to the Northern Border After all, this capital city isn't safe for him."

The little flower pursed her lips and shook her head slightly, "A Tang, I can't go see him."

"Well, if you've decided, I won't pressure you."

An Xuetang truly didn't want Huāduǒ to go see Mò Yúnchén.

Because in An Xue Tang's heart now, Mo Yun Chen represents the typical ancient patriarchal man, and Hua Duo has gone through so many things. Mo Yun Chen, this kind of man, definitely wouldn't be able to accept her.

Because she understood this about Mo Yunchen, An Xuetang hoped that Huaduo'er would meet him. She wanted Huaduo'er to discover for herself that the man she had longed for so many years might not be worth risking her life for.

An Xuetang was thinking, if Huaduoer could go and meet Mo Yunchen, see clearly who Mo Yunchen really was, perhaps she would think differently, perhaps she wouldn't insist on entering that deep palace.

After all, the one Huahua liked, that elegant and refined prince who was secretly in love with her, is no longer around. The current Mo Yunchen might not even catch Huahua's eye anymore.

"However, Duo'er, as a friend, there are some things I don't want to hide from you. In fact, I can't guarantee that today's surgery will be completely risk-free."

The flower froze, suddenly raising her head to stare into An Xue Tang's eyes, "What do you mean by that, A Tang"

An Xuetang sighed, "I can't guarantee that there will be no accidents during the surgery. I can only say that I will try my best to keep him safe and help him recover well. But any surgery carries risks, and I can't give you a 100% guarantee. Do you understand what I mean, Duo'er"

Hua Duoer pursed her lips, "So there's a high chance he could be in danger during this surgery, isn't there"

"Yes."

An Xuetang also doesn't want to be friends. I don't hope you have regrets. Assuming this is the last chance to see him, will you go see him Duoer, the choice is yours. The surgery is scheduled for Si Shi (midday), and you still have some time to consider. I really hope you think carefully about it and make a decision you absolutely won't regret.

Huāduǒr knew exactly what An Xuetang meant. She nodded at this moment, "táng, thank you. I want to be alone for a while."

An Xuetang nodded slightly, reaching out to tuck the stray hairs from Huā Duǒ's face behind her ear. "Alright, no matter what you decide, I support you."

Hua Duo'er felt a little moved. An Xue Tang's words and actions were measured, making her feel very comfortable. She smiled softly at her, "A Tang, thank you."

An Xuetang also smirked and reached out to touch her face, without saying anything.

After An Xuetang and Ning'er left, Huaduo was alone in the room for a while. Then she called Xiao Hong inside.

Xiao Hong looked worried. Although she didn't know what the Northern Border Princess and their young mistress had said to each other, the heavy atmosphere told her that whatever they discussed must have been related to the prince of the domineering country from that day.

So when Xiaohong was called into the room, she appeared rather cautious. “Miss, what’s wrong”

"Xiaohong, help me find a nice outfit."

Xiaohong was startled, and then quickly replied, "This servant will go right away."

Her young mistress had not asked her to find clothes for quite some time, so when she suddenly brought it up, she was a little caught off guard. However, mostly she was excited.

Since she was asked to prepare the clothes, it means the young lady from her family is going to dress up.

She was pleased to see it happen.

Little Red didn't waste any time, she quickly went to help Huāduǒr choose clothes and accessories. These were all gifts from the Princess of Beijang to their young mistress, and now they finally came in handy.

And the flower herself went to take a bath, while soaking in the tub, she took out the jade pendant from her neck. This jade pendant she almost always wore around her neck.

At this moment, she took off the jade pendant and rubbed its patterns with her fingertips, as if looking at a past story carried on the jade.

Although many years have passed, she still remembers very clearly that this jade pendant was given to her personally by Mo Yunchen. He said it was a thank you for saving his life.

This jade was translucent, cool and smooth, and flawlessly white. It was incredibly beautiful. After obtaining this piece of jade, she could no longer appreciate any other jade. No matter how exquisite a jade might be placed before her, she would find it unremarkable.

But right now, she needs to see him. She can't wear it anymore, can't let him see through her. Because the truth is...she doesn't deserve him.

Half an hour later, Hua Duo'er, dressed and ready, appeared at the door of Mo Yunchen's courtyard.

At this moment, An Xue Tang and the four of them, Fu Shou Kang Ning, were having a conversation in Mo Yun Chen's courtyard. To be precise, An Xue Tang was briefing them on the arrangements for the surgery.

In this surgery, An Xuetang was the main surgeon, Ning'er assisted her, while Fu'er was in charge of various medicines, Shou'er was responsible for passing surgical instruments, and Kang'er was responsible for applying medicine and maintenance during arm suturing.

Mo Yunjing and others were responsible for creating a safe enough environment for them, at least during the several hours of surgery, ensuring no one disturbed them.

And Feng Ming wanted to watch the surgical process; he was really curious about how An Xue Tang's surgery was done!

At this moment, Mo Yunjing has already gone with Yun Si and others to check every corner of the mansion and set up defenses.

Only An Xuetang and the four people of Fushou Kangning remained in Mo Yunchen's courtyard.

At the sound, An Xue Tang turned around. The moment she saw Huā Duǒr, a smile curved her lips.

She still came!

Seeing An Xue Tang, Huaduoer's mouth also curled up into a smile.

Her smile landed right in the eyes of Mo Yunchen, who was pushing open the door. With one hand, he pushed the door open and saw a girl in green standing at the entrance, smiling sweetly. Her skin was as white as snow, and her eyes seemed like a clear spring.

She just happened to look over at that moment, their gazes met in mid-air. Huāduǒ's body stiffened, and the smile on her face gradually became stiff.

Mo Yunchen's clear and cold eyebrows raised slightly. He only felt that the girl at the door was extremely beautiful, like a pearl with a soft glow, beautiful jade gleaming, with a hint of scholarly air between her brows and eyes. Looking closer, she seemed familiar, as if...had he seen her somewhere before, "Is there truly nothing more to add"Ning'er knew she was worried, and at this moment she nodded slightly. "Your Highness, don't worry so much. The King has made preparations before leaving, and the...
