Chapter 66: The matter involved is very important
Song Yanxi was startled by these words and stopped in her tracks, almost dropping the little baby in her arms.
What kind of vicious words is this little girl saying?
No, when she sees His Royal Highness Prince Jin later, she will definitely complain to Zixu about him, letting him teach his sister how to speak nonsense all day long!
Song Yanxi was feeling angry when she heard Jiaojiao's baby voice say, "Third brother bullied me, and daddy is angry."
So that's how it is...
Facing the little girl's clear and pure eyes, Song Yanxi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
This little girl, I don't know from whom she learned to breathe heavily when she speaks, and she almost caused a misunderstanding.
Aunt Qu was also secretly sweating, and quickly reached out to Jiaojiao, coaxing her, "Miss Jiaojiao, be good, this old servant will take you back to eat white jade cake."
"Hmm..." The little girl swallowed and shook her head to refuse, "No, no!"
As she spoke, she hugged her little hands even tighter, as if she was afraid that someone would separate them.
Song Yanxi couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's okay, Miss Jiaojiao is very light, I can still carry her."
"But..." Aunt Qu looked embarrassed.
Suddenly, she thought of something and asked with a smile, "Miss Jiaojiao, do you still remember what you promised the prince this morning?"
Upon hearing this, the little girl's eyes widened instantly, and she said angrily, "Mammy is so mean!"
Madam Qu said, "Miss Jiaojiao has misunderstood. When you were bargaining with the prince, this old servant was serving beside you."
Song Yanxi raised her eyebrows slightly. This little girl even learned how to bargain.
No need to ask, it must have been her good third brother who taught her.
The little girl felt a little guilty, her eyes rolling around, looking at the sky, the ground, and then at the embroidery thread on Song Yanxi's collar, but she refused to look at her.
Aunt Qu coughed lightly and reminded, "Miss Jiaojiao, it's getting late."
"I know, I know!" Jiaojiao scratched her hair irritably, looked up at Song Yanxi aggrievedly, and asked, "Will sister stay and have lunch with Jiaojiao today?"
Before she could answer, the little girl said, "We have super delicious candied chestnuts."
Noticing her unable to resist swallowing her saliva, Song Yanxi, who never liked sweets, also became interested. She glanced at the sky and said, "I might be done a little later. I'll come find you when I'm done. Jiaojiao, if you're hungry, remember to eat first."
The little girl nodded immediately.
Aunt Qu quickly carried the person away with a brisk pace, not at all like a woman in her fifties.
Looking at her steady lower body, she is clearly a trained martial artist.
Not only her, but everyone Song Yanxi saw in the Jin Palace, including the seemingly lazy gardener in the yard, were all martial artists.
It seems that the situation surrounding their Prince Jin is far more dangerous than she imagined.
But it's better this way. The more dangerous it is, the more useful she is to him. He doesn't have to worry about her breaking the promise after crossing the river, and he can use her with a clear conscience in the future.
Thinking of this, Song Yanxi's steps became much lighter.
In the courtyard, Mo Jinchuan, who was wiping his sword, turned around and looked at her with a faint smile on his face, "The girl is in a good mood today."
"Your Highness too." Song Yanxi raised the corners of her lips and said sincerely.
The few times I met him before, although His Royal Highness Prince Jin was smiling, there always seemed to be something in his eyes, making it difficult to see clearly. There was always a sense of distance that forced people to keep their distance.
Today, I see that I am a lot happier and more real.
Her eyes fell on his legs, and Song Yanxi asked urgently, "Have you regained feeling in your legs, Your Majesty?"
Mo Jinchuan's eyes darkened slightly, and he said calmly, "No."
"No feeling at all?"
"without."
Song Yanxi frowned, strode up to him, squatted down and started pinching the hem of her skirt.
The moment her fingertips touched the muscles through the fabric, she keenly felt the tightness, which was very light but unmistakable.
They both looked up at the same time, and when their eyes met, they caught the undisguised joy in each other's eyes.
Song Yanxi looked even happier and blurted out, "Congratulations, Your Highness."
"Isn't it a little too early to say congratulations now?" Mo Jinchuan said with a faint expression.
If she hadn't seen the excitement in his eyes just now, Song Yanxi would have really believed his indifference.
She lowered her eyes and continued to press the acupoints on his legs, unable to help but complain in her heart.
Those duplicity-loving young men and scholars in the popular storybooks are probably based on His Royal Highness Prince Jin.
The main character is stubborn.
Song Yanxi suppressed her laughter and checked other parts of his legs. She thought she had hidden it well, but she didn't know that from Mo Jinchuan's perspective, he could clearly see the slightly raised corners of her mouth.
His eyes fell on the back of her snow-white neck, Mo Jinchuan's eyes darkened, and he looked away calmly.
At the same time, silently recite the meditation mantra in your heart.
He didn't believe in gods or Buddhas, but he had to admit that this thing was very useful for calming the mind.
After the overall examination was completed, Song Yanxi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Your Highness's leg has recovered well. In two or three days, we can start setting the bones."
Mo Jinchuan said calmly, "Thank you for your help."
Song Yanxi turned around and opened the medicine box, saying bluntly, "Your Highness, there's no need to be polite with me. This is what I should do. I'll have many requests for your help in the future, and I hope you won't despise me for being greedy."
"You don't believe me?" Mo Jinchuan lowered his voice, his tone clearly filled with displeasure.
No one would be happy to be questioned by their own allies.
Feeling the sharp gaze from behind, Song Yanxi sighed lightly and turned around.
Looking at Mo Jinchuan, whose face was covered with a thin layer of anger, Song Yanxi asked instead of answering, "If I didn't trust His Royal Highness Prince Jin, why would I risk leaving the palace every night before?"
For a woman, this is undoubtedly a life-or-death struggle.
Not to mention that she is still someone else's wife. Once the matter is exposed, not only will she die, but her mother and brother in the Yongchuan Marquis Mansion and even the Yan family will be burdened by her and live under the strange eyes and saliva of the world.
Even if Mo Jinchuan was a man, these were all predictable.
He had also thought about changing the way he did it. He didn't want Song Yanxi to take the risk every day, so he decided to go instead.
However, in this way, if the people in the general's mansion found any sign of trouble, they would just bring people over and surround the yard, and they would be caught in adultery, with no possibility of denial.
As it turned out, his concerns were correct.
Seeing that Mo Jinchuan's expression had eased slightly, Song Yanxi explained, "It's not that I don't trust Your Highness, but what I'm asking for is extremely complex and may even involve Your Highness in a court struggle."
Mo Jinchuan nodded and motioned for her to continue.
Unsure how much he knew, Song Yanxi thought for a moment and said, "Your Highness has long since stayed away from court battles to protect himself. If you don't want to get involved, that's fine. Since I've agreed, I will heal your legs."
"It's a loss-making business, but you still managed to gain experience." Mo Jinchuan's face became darker as he listened, with a sneer on his lips.
Song Yanxi understood that he was mocking her for previously subsidizing the General's Mansion while blind. Her cheeks flushed, and she muttered, "Your Highness has helped me so much in front of the Emperor. Even for this favor, I cannot be ungrateful. Knowing that Your Highness's leg could be cured, I allowed Your Highness to remain confined to this wheelchair out of selfish motives."
Mo Jinchuan asked, "What if I am unwilling to take this risk?"
