A Sweet Little Ginseng Spirit, Doted on by the Violent Crown Prince

[Soft and adorable ginseng spirit × sickly, deranged crown prince]

Bai Nuonuo was a ginseng spirit, a thousand-year-old ginseng with the power to nourish yin, calm the spirit, prolong life, and even bring the dead back to life.

The Tianxuan Kingdom had a mad crown prince who made a habit of killing people and flaying them alive. Every full moon, poison flared in his body, leaving him in unbearable agony.

The little ginseng spirit had the misfortune of meeting the mad crown prince and was tormented until she nearly went bald.

You’d think that being a spirit herself, she wouldn’t be afraid, but she was timid and cowardly. To stay alive, she turned into a bootlicker who praised him day and night.

The following account comes from some unknown bystander:

When the mad crown prince killed people, the little ginseng spirit would scamper over to hand him a knife.

When the mad crown prince drank tea, the little ginseng spirit would tear off a ginseng rootlet despite the pain and brew it for him.

When the mad crown prince flayed someone, the little ginseng spirit would… would weep and say she really couldn’t bring herself to peel anyone’s skin off. Waaah!

Everyone was stunned. The mad crown prince didn’t get angry. Instead, he pulled the little ginseng spirit into his arms, as if he were afraid a drop of blood might touch her!

The mad crown prince’s hidden guards noticed that ever since their master acquired a ginseng spirit, his back no longer hurt, his legs no longer ached, and everything tasted delicious!

The guards wept. Waaah! We want a ginseng spirit too!
