The prince stared at the incense burner for a long time, then turned to look at the bronze ball on the bed.

Then he put down the incense burner, ran to the cabinet, took out a wooden box from the cabinet, opened it, and took out the jade pendant inside.

It's the jade pendant that Zhou Ruoreng made emit black energy at Tianyu Restaurant last time, the birthday gift that Consort Ling gave to the Crown Prince.

He turned back to Zhou Ruo and said, "Come on, let it turn black again and see."

Zhou Ruo waved his hand again, and black smoke emanated from the jade pendant.

At this moment, three figures emanating black smoke were echoing each other in the Crown Prince's bedchamber.

The prince's eyes darted back and forth between the three.

After a moment, the Crown Prince suddenly asked Zhou Ruo in a slightly low voice, with a hint of suspicion,

"This black mist, could it be a deception you've created on purpose?"

Zhao Jinzhong was shocked and immediately pulled Zhou Ruo down to kneel, explaining, "Your Highness, Zhou Ruo wouldn't dare!"

The crown prince looked at the two men on the ground and sneered, "How can you guarantee that?"

Zhao Jinzhong said, "When I was paralyzed in both legs more than half a year ago, my concubine in the mansion also used a jade pendant that had been enchanted to harm me."

Later, Ruoruo discovered that the jade pendant also carried a dark aura.

The crown prince remained silent.

Zhou Ruoxin thought to herself, "This Crown Prince is so strange. I kindly discovered the problem and told him, so why is he blaming me instead?"

"But Your Highness, why would I need to use a trick? I'm so young, what bad intentions could I possibly have?"

"And there's something I haven't told His Highness yet."

The crown prince looked at her suspiciously. "What is it?"

"Your Highness, the part of your soul that was eaten is hidden in this incense burner."

The crown prince was taken aback at first, and then slowly digested what Zhou Ruo had just said.

Then, perhaps due to his panic, the crown prince actually laughed, his laughter trembling.

The laughter subsided, and he suddenly changed his tone, saying in a teasing manner, "Zhou Ruo, stop fooling around! It's not funny at all!"

Zhou Ruo looked around the bedroom, her gaze finally settling on an orchid by the window.

"Brother, could you please bring that herb here for me?" Zhou Ruo said to Zhao Jinzhong, patting the table.

"Okay!" Zhao Jinzhong walked over quickly, brought the orchid back, and put it on the table.

"Your Highness, I'm going to guide the fragment of your soul that fell out of the incense burner to this orchid plant so you can see it!"

The prince had read books about the supernatural, but now he was about to witness something that could only be accepted in books in real life.

What would that feel like?

With a mixture of skepticism, curiosity, and anticipation, the prince stared at the orchid on the table. "Let's begin!"

Zhou Ruo used the power of spiritual healing resonance to guide the prince's soul from the incense burner to the orchid grass.

In no time, half of the dark green orchid turned yellow and withered.

Crown Prince: !!! ......

Zhao Jinzhong: "!!! How could this be?!"

Zhou Ruo explained, "The part of His Highness's soul that was eaten is still there, but it has been damaged."

The prince asked with some skepticism, "The injured areas are those withered yellow leaves?"

"Yes, Your Highness, you finally believe me?"

"What will happen if that soul is injured?"

Hearing and seeing his soul being drawn to the orchid, the prince felt somewhat flustered.

Zhou Ruo raised an eyebrow at him, "Would Your Highness like to give it a try?"

"How...how do I try?" To be honest, the prince really wanted to try.

Zhou Ruo gently touched the withered and yellowed parts of the leaves with her spiritual power.

The prince suddenly touched the side of his head. "Huh? Why do I feel something tapping on my head? It's tapping me, and it hurts a little."

"How about this?" Zhou Ruo directly reached out and patted the withered grass leaves with more force.

"Ouch! That hurts so much!"

Zhou Ruo moved her fingers to the dark green part of the grass blades and gently scratched it.

"Huh? Why does it feel a little itchy? It feels so good...so good!"

"Hehehe! This is so much fun~" Zhou Ruo got a little carried away with scratching.

So much so that she didn't even notice when the Crown Prince was staring at her with a dark expression.

"Are you playing me?"

Zhao Jinzhong suddenly realized the atmosphere was tense, and he immediately called out to Zhou Ruo, "Ruo Ruo, stop right now!"

Zhou Ruo suddenly stopped moving. "W-what's wrong? I'm massaging His Highness the Crown Prince~ Your Highness, are you feeling unwell?"

"Yes...it was quite comfortable." The prince savored the feeling from just now.

A gentle force was rubbing his head, making him feel as if his head was resting on a ball of cotton, which felt incredibly comfortable.

"Since that's the case, then I'll repair this part of your soul!"

After Zhou Ruo finished speaking, she immediately injected spiritual power that could repair the soul into the withered orchid grass.

In the blink of an eye, the entire orchid plant turned dark green.

Moreover, the grass blades looked more oily and glossy than before.

The prince clearly felt a cool sensation washing over his head and penetrating his heart.

Many forgotten memories came flooding back like a tide.

Those fragments of memory seemed to be stitched together, as if everything had become whole again.

The prince felt a long-lost sense of refreshment, and it felt wonderful!

"What's wrong with my head?" The prince looked at the orchid grass that had regained its vitality with a puzzled expression.

After the lost soul returned to its rightful place, the crown prince seemed to have become somewhat wiser.

"The orchids have all turned green, so my injured spirit has also recovered?"

Zhou Ruo happily said, "That's right, I've also restored this soul fragment back into your body!"

"So I'm alright now?"

"His Highness the Crown Prince is now fully recovered, but the incense burner, jade pendant, and bronze ball are still there!"

Zhou Ruo gently told the Crown Prince this cruel reality.

"Your Highness, there's something nasty hidden behind the jade pendant and the bronze ball, and I can't find it right now."

When faced with complex problems, Zhou Ruo finds it difficult to articulate them clearly.

At this point, Zhao Jinzhong would try to help her break down the problem into simple and easy-to-understand language.

Zhao Jinzhong asked, "Ruoruo, do you mean that the jade pendant and the bronze ball will lead His Highness the Crown Prince's soul to another place?"

Zhou Ruo nodded happily; it was so good that her brother understood what she meant.

"Yes, brother! Once we lure him out, the bad guys can control the prince's thoughts, it's very dangerous!"

The Crown Prince's face turned deathly pale. "Are you saying that they don't want to kill me, but rather control me and turn me into a puppet?"

"Yes, he's become a puppet! His Highness the Crown Prince has become smarter, hehe!"

"Ruo Ruo!" Zhao Jinzhong's heart tightened again. He felt that if Zhou Ruo hadn't known medicine and could have saved the Crown Prince...

Someone like her, who repeatedly offended the Crown Prince, has probably been executed by slow slicing countless times.

The Crown Prince waved his hand, telling Zhao Jinzhong not to worry about Zhou Ruo's offense.

"Zhou Ruo is right, my mind has indeed become much sharper."

Wow, the Crown Prince has not only become smarter, but also more tolerant!

But, I've gone off on a tangent...

"So, Your Highness, next you need to find something that will turn you into a puppet!"
