She, the sole daughter of the Zhenbei Great General, Yu Qianqian, was unrestrained and magnificent, renowned throughout the city. One night, a decree annihilated the entire General's Mansion. S...
"It really is her!" Su Yu exclaimed joyfully, clutching the letter tightly in her hands. "Quick... help me change my clothes. I need to go out for a walk to clear my head!"
The young eunuch cautiously said, "Your Highness, but... what about the Grand Tutor's residence..."
"Hmph! Let them do whatever they want. I don't have time to deal with those trivial matters right now!" With that, he turned around and rushed towards his bedchamber.
He changed into some light clothes and hurriedly left the East Palace with his personal guards. He was excited at the thought of seeing Feng Jin again soon. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, he ran out of the Crown Prince's residence in a flash.
At the same time, Feng Jin was sitting quietly beside Mu Beichen, staring intently at his pale and haggard face, which looked like a pearl that had lost its luster, completely different from the handsome man he used to be.
Three days and three nights passed, and there was still no improvement. She gradually began to believe the imperial physician's words. If things continued like this, it would probably take three to five years before she could get better.
She sighed deeply and fell into deep thought; Su Yu, Su Yu, you must never forget the matter I asked you to do. It is a matter of life and death, and the survival of the Jingwang Mansion depends on you.
Unconsciously, her vision began to blur. She put her arm around Mu Beichen and slowly lowered her eyes. It was as if she saw Chu Mingxi from when she was a child. He was still the same as he was now, tall and elegant, with exquisite and flawless features. He had a peerless face that could be remembered for a lifetime after just one glance.
Before meeting him, Feng Jin never imagined that she would one day be so infatuated with a man. For her, Chu Mingxi was more than just liking or loving. Their relationship was like that of a fish and water. Without fish, the water would gradually become muddy, but a fish would die if it left the water... And she was that little fish living in the water. But as long as Chu Mingxi was by her side, she was confident that she could shoulder the responsibility of the entire world and help him step by step climb to the pinnacle of power.
She never denied that she was someone who paid attention to appearance. If... just if, Chu Mingxi didn't have such a beautiful face, perhaps she wouldn't have fallen in love with him so easily back then.
She didn't know how long she slept in this drowsy state until dawn. After waking up, she continued to hover around Mu Beichen. Early in the morning, she heard Lingzhi calling her breathlessly from outside the door: "Miss, someone outside wants to see you!"
Feng Jin turned around in surprise and asked in astonishment, "Did you see who it was?"
"Yes...it's His Highness the Crown Prince..." Lingzhi replied breathlessly. Before she could finish her sentence, Feng Jin's face lit up with joy, and he laughed happily.
Since the prince fell ill, her young lady has not smiled once. Now that His Highness the Crown Prince has unexpectedly come to visit, something good must be about to happen.
"It's him?" Feng Jin's face lit up with a smile, her mind racing. Good! Su Yu must have brought some miracle cures this time. Ah Chen is saved!
Lingzhi was still standing there watching her eyes dart around. Before she knew it, she had already dashed out of the room.
Why did he abandon her again and run away?
The young lady has been acting so strangely lately that she's starting to suspect that this young lady might be an imposter! Lingzhi stood rooted to the spot, staring at the receding figure for a long time, unconsciously falling into a moment of deep thought.
Su Yu stood upright in front of the Jing Prince's mansion, his hands behind his back. When he saw Feng Jin rushing out, his dark eyes immediately curved into crescent moons, and a gentle smile appeared on his exceptionally handsome face: "Princess Jing, it's been a long time!"
Feng Jin glanced at Su Yu casually, her gaze falling directly on the two hands beneath his sleeves. Without a word, she quickly moved closer and circled around Su Yu, leaving him somewhat bewildered.
Su Yu observed her unusual behavior and wondered if she had done something wrong. For a moment, even her tone of voice became indistinct: "What...are you doing?"
"Where is your magic pill?" Feng Jin asked directly and earnestly. This was her biggest concern right now. Without it, it wouldn't matter whether Su Yu came or not.
Su Yu raised an eyebrow, a sly glint flashing in her eyes. "What if I said I forgot to bring it?"
"How could you forget something so important?" She quickly frowned, all her interest vanishing in that instant.
Seeing her distraught appearance, Su Yu burst out laughing: "Don't worry, how could I forget something so important?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Jin immediately perked up again. She was as energetic as if she had been injected with chicken blood, and she dragged Su Yu all the way into the courtyard.
"Hey... I'm a distinguished guest, you should at least give me a welcome feast!" Su Yu shouted in a panic, but his protest was in vain, as his little arms and legs were completely bound by Feng Jin.
As she walked, she said, "Once Your Highness recovers, I will definitely treat you well."
Su Yu curled her thin lips into a mischievous smile: "What if there's no hope?"
Actually, he regretted it as soon as he said it. When he saw Feng Jin looking at him with a murderous gaze, he felt a chill down his spine and a feeling that he was about to die.
He quickly explained with an embarrassed smile, "Actually... I was just joking. Prince Jing is very lucky, and with my blessing as the god of fortune, his health will definitely improve."
