Yin Chujin woke up to the strong smell of medicine. She opened her eyes and was in a daze for a while before she realized that she had been moved back to Jinyu Pavilion when she was unconscious. She tried to sit up, but the moment her neck moved, she gasped in pain. She raised her hand and moved it to her neck, where several bandages were wrapped around it.
Yin Chujin laughed self-deprecatingly. Ever since she came to this time and space, she had been repeating the same thing: she was seriously injured, unconscious, and awake. Compared to the modern world, she was more at odds with this place.
The sound of the door being pushed open could be heard. Zhu’er appeared at the door. When she saw Yin Chujin waking up, she was pleasantly surprised and ran forward happily. “Princess, you’re awake?”
At the same time, she turned around and said to the palace maid guarding outside the door, “Quick, inform the emperor that the princess is awake!”
Zhu’er picked up the medicine that had been brewed on the round table and walked to the bed. “Princess, I will feed you medicine!”
“Zhu’er, why are you in the palace?”
“The eunuch from the palace came to the Xiao Manor and asked me to come, so I came.”
Yin Chujin nodded. She knew that it was because she had saved the emperor’s life when he was assassinated that he had to pay attention to her. She was unconscious and did not even have a maidservant by her side. Xiao Yelei did not want to cause any trouble, so he asked an eunuch to go back to the residence to find Zhu’er and enter the palace.
After drinking the medicine, the emperor, empress, Xiao Yelei, and the others appeared.
The emperor held Yin Chujin’s hands excitedly. “Jin’er, thank goodness you were there. Father wants to thank you for appearing in time…”
The empress chimed in at the right time. “That’s right, Jin’er. You’re really brave. You risked your life to save your father this time. After I heard what happened from the palace servants, I was so scared. Sigh, I don’t know where your mother went half a year ago. If you don’t mind, I’ll treat you like my biological daughter in the future. Your Majesty, what do you think?” As she spoke, she reached out and patted Yin Chujin’s head.
“Yes, of course. Empress, you’re too considerate.”
Yin Chujin forced a smile and listened to the emperor and empress singing in her ear. She couldn’t be bothered to interrupt. She had seen the emperor’s muddle-headedness, and the empress didn’t look like a kind person. She didn’t think she was really that kind.
“Your Majesties, Chujin has just woken up. I think she should rest well. I and Zhu’er will take good care of her here!”
Xiao Yelei’s sudden voice made Yin Chujin’s alarm go off. After the emperor and empress left, she did not know how he would deal with her. Hence, she looked at the emperor eagerly and tugged at his sleeve. “Father, I haven’t seen you for a few days after I married into the Xiao Manor. I miss you so much…”
The emperor laughed out loud and patted her head. “You’re already married, yet you still know how to act cute. Don’t worry, when you want to see Father in the future, let Yelei bring you back to the palace. You’re seriously injured, so you really should rest well. There are plenty of opportunities to see Father. Empress, let’s go!”
Yin Chujin could only watch as the emperor and empress slowly walked away. She retracted her gaze and saw Xiao Yelei glaring at her with a dark expression. The next moment, he grabbed her injured neck.
“Yin Chujin, I’ve underestimated you! You didn’t hand over the blueprint no matter how much I forced you to hand it over, but you actually gave it to the assassin so easily!”
“Cough… it hurts… let go… I…”
“Your… Your Highness, let go of the princess. She’s injured…” Zhu’er knelt beside Xiao Yelei and begged for mercy for her princess.
“Xiao Yelei… This is the palace. If something happens… cough cough… it won’t look good on anyone!” Yin Chujin grabbed his arm tightly. If he didn’t let go, she would suffocate to death.
Xiao Yelei snorted and finally let go.
“Cough cough—” After breathing in fresh air again, she coughed violently for a while before recovering. “Prince Xiao, I… am afraid of death. Under that situation, what could I do if I didn’t hand over the blueprint? You were also present. If you had the ability to save me and Father, I naturally wouldn’t have to hand over the blueprint.”
“You…” Xiao Yelei glared at her fiercely, wishing he could eat her up.
Yin Chujin looked at his defeated expression and felt very comfortable. She looked at him lovingly and pretended to be sad. “Your Highness, since I don’t have the blueprint you want anymore, please give me a divorce letter if you want to divorce me. Oh, I forgot. I’m a princess and I didn’t do anything wrong. As a Prince of the Second Rank, you can’t divorce me. However, we can discuss this properly and discuss separation with Father. From now on, we have nothing to do with each other!”
