Bai Zhi, who was waiting on the side, hurried forward, fearing that the Ninth Princess would choke her and get sick.
"Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, I'm fine." Gu Yuyan took the handkerchief and wiped her mouth obediently, then quickly stood up. "I'm full. Uncle and aunt, enjoy your meal."
After saying that, he quickly bowed and took his leave.
After all, she is a royal princess, so how could she lose her composure like this? Seeing that the emperor's uncle's face changed, if she didn't escape now, when would she?
"Don't worry about her, just continue eating."
Gu Qingchen noticed that Jiang Li didn't eat much, and when he saw her about to put down her chopsticks, he added something.
Gu Qingchen was not particular about food on weekdays. The dishes made by Jiang Li were refreshing and tasty, but not heavy, so he had a rare appetite and even ordered two more bowls of rice.
Ever since the two got married, there has been an unwritten rule in the palace.
Before going to bed, the prince and princess would bathe together in the clean room and no one was allowed to disturb them.
"Your Majesty, if anyone in the palace asks about the detoxification..."
In the steamy clean room, Gu Qingchen leaned with his upper body naked in the herbal bath tub specially prepared by Jiang Li.
Jiang Li stood behind him and pulled out the last silver needle. Remembering that Gu Qingchen always frowned habitually, she planned to get up and put the medicine box away before pressing the acupuncture points on his head.
only--
Gu Qingchen thought Jiang Li had left as usual, so he stood up from the bathtub.
As soon as he turned around, he saw the woman also turned around and stretched out her hand.
!!!
The original owner's hands were well-maintained, and Jiang Li, being a doctor, took extra care of them. Turning around, her hands, originally intended for a head massage, ended up resting on the man's chest.
Previously, acupuncture for detoxification was done on the back. Jiang Li didn't expect that although Gu Qingchen looked thin, his chest muscles were so sensitive to the touch. Her fingers subconsciously applied a little force.
Before Gu Qingchen could react, he felt the woman's hands in front of him, which were as smooth as warm jade, and she made an unexpected move, so that he subconsciously hummed.
“Anthracene…”
In just a moment, their faces turned red.
Bai Zhi saw her young lady fleeing from the purification room and thought something had happened.
When I chased him back to the room, I saw Jiang Li finally caught his breath and said, "Nothing, I just feel it's too hot inside."
Oh my god, she's a doctor. She's been around a lot of men, so what happened to her today?! Thinking of Gu Qingchen's eyes, Jiang Li felt her heart beating abnormally, with signs of cerebral congestion.
Hearing this, Bai Zhi blushed, looking as if she understood, and said that she would go to Jiang Li to fetch water for cleansing.
Unexpectedly, Mo Jiu also filled water again. Although Bai Zhi didn't understand why Mo Jiu only filled cold water, when the two looked at each other, they could see the word "understand" in each other's eyes.
"Wait until the poison is completely removed before telling Mother and the others."
midnight.
Jiang Li was half asleep and half awake when he felt someone say this in his ear.
I wanted to ask a few more questions, but I couldn't open my eyes.
Gu Qingchen saw the woman tugging at the corner of his clothes, her lips moving slightly, and he didn't know what she was saying. The woman was really petite, and her appearance made Gu Qingchen's heart soften. If... Gu Qingchen looked at the woman with gentle eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.
After a while, Gu Qingchen held Jiang Li's hand and put it back into the quilt, then he blew out the candle on the bedside and lay down with his clothes on.

The next day.
When Jiang Li woke up, Bai Zhi was still there to serve him.
"The prince went to the palace early this morning. Mo Qi said that the Autumn Examination is approaching and court affairs have been very busy recently. Before Mo Jiu left, he asked him to investigate something."
While helping Jiang Li to dress up, she told her young lady what Mo Qi had told her to do.
Bai Zhi is now acting more and more like a head maid.
"Mo Qi is really good. He taught you so well." Jiang Li couldn't help but tease her, making Bai Zhi blush. "I usually do a lot of things for him."
"It was you, Princess, who taught me that there are no permanent friends, only permanent interests."
Jiang Li: “…”
"This sentence doesn't have to be used here." Jiang Li curled the corners of his lips and looked at his silly maid, not knowing what to say.
Just as I finished putting on my makeup, I heard a voice coming from outside the yard, "Aunt Huang, are you awake?"
It’s Gu Yuyan.
Jiang Li almost forgot that the Ninth Princess was brought back to live in the palace by her.
"Aunt Huang, are you going to the Yin Mansion today?"
The first thing Gu Yuyan said after Jiang Li took her to dinner was to ask Jiang Li if he could take her with him.
Thinking of Gu Yuyan's plea for Yin Tian yesterday, Jiang Li finished the last mouthful of porridge and nodded, "The herbal medicine shop is still making final arrangements. If you feel bored staying in the palace, you can come with me, but..."
"Don't worry, Aunt Huang, I will never reveal my identity."
After saying that, Gu Yuyan ran out again and said to the yard, "Come out."
Then he saw several guards jumping down from somewhere, "Ninth Princess."
"From now on, if you don't go out without me, and Aunt Huang has ordered you to stay away. You are not allowed to come out unless necessary, and you are not allowed to be discovered by others. Do you hear me?"
In front of the guards, Gu Yuyan showed her princess demeanor. After all, the guards were sent by the Queen Mother to protect the princess. They were a little hesitant when they heard this, worried that it would be too late if something unexpected happened.
"If you don't obey, I will send you back."
"yes."
Xiaojiu, with a stern look on his face, waved his hand and signaled them to disappear after hearing the guards' agreement.
She turned around, lifted the hem of her skirt and ran towards Jiang Li.
"Hehe, Aunt Huang, am I awesome?"
With that little expression of seeking credit, Jiang Li really couldn't associate her with the little devil who had caused trouble for her in the past.
When the palace's carriage arrived at the Yin family's door, Yin Tian was already waiting outside.
"I pay my respects to the princess."
Now that he already knew Jiang Li's identity, Yin Tian naturally couldn't pretend not to know.
Fortunately, in order to allow Yin Jia to recuperate, the Yin Mansion was far away from the downtown area and there were not many people passing by, which saved a lot of trouble.
Jiang Li nodded and said, "I'm here today to treat your sister. I'm a doctor, so there's no need for courtesy, Master Yin. Please lead the way."
Yin Tian was at home today. The color of his clothes was not as dark as yesterday, making him look a lot younger.
Jiang Li glanced at Yin Tian and thought that if he removed his beard, he would probably be less than 20 years old. Thinking of this, and looking at the huge house in front of him, his admiration for Yin Tian increased a little.
"Yes, Princess, this way please."
Yin Tian felt more and more that the Yin family had been rewarded for their good deeds. They actually managed to get the princess to come here specially. Later he would have to go to the ancestral temple to burn some paper money.
As Jiang Li stepped into the Yin Mansion, she heard a voice behind her, "Wait."
When they looked back, they saw a young man wearing a veiled hat.
