Compared to Lin Chunhuan's entanglement, Lingyan County Princess seemed much calmer, "To be honest with you, I came to Cangjian Villa to escape."
"But not for myself, but for my daughter."
Princess Lingyan took a deep breath, her tone as calm as if she was talking about someone else, but her fingers were still shaking uncontrollably.
Her heart was not as calm as she appeared.
"Actually, that's not true. I didn't escape. I was a decoy. They let me out on purpose, but for my daughter, I had no choice."
"Fuan, you're going to be a mother too. You understand me, right?"
Lin Chunhuan's hand holding the teacup froze. "Bait? Am I the fish?"
"yes."
Princess Lingyan responded directly, without a trace of hesitation, "Fuan, you are right. I did hate you. I hated you for being so favored."
"I hate that you don't have to suffer so much inhuman torture like I did."
"I hate that you have a bright future, but I hate even more that all you see is peace and prosperity."
As she spoke, Princess Lingyan's breathing became heavier, but slowly, she calmed down again. "So, don't blame me for using you."
Hearing this, Lin Chunhuan subconsciously tried to stand up, but her legs seemed to be completely powerless, and the next moment she fell back onto the stool, "You, drugged me!"
"You can't blame me!"
Princess Lingyan didn't deny it. Instead, she suddenly became angry. In a vague way, she had the nervous look she had when they first met. "You hide here. They can't get in."
"If they don't send you out, they won't let my daughter go!"
Princess Lingyan suddenly knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, "I am not questioning my brother's decision. I know, I know everything."
"My royal brother told me that if we want to assimilate a race, we have to do it gradually. He said that our sacrifice is to save more people. He said that as long as the number of men and women in the Yihe tribe is balanced, we can gradually change our bad habits and intermarry with people from outside."
"My royal brother has already said that by that time, there will be no need to send people to arrange marriages. I know everything!"
Lin Chunhuan couldn't stand up, and even his eyes became blurry.
Apart from watching Princess Lingyan talking to herself like crazy, he could only lie on the table and do nothing.
"But how long do I have to wait?" Lingyan County Princess was clearly overwhelmed. Her hands and feet were trembling, and her hands were clenched into fists. She was obviously unable to control her behavior. "I can't wait any longer. My daughter is only seven years old. She is so beautiful and so sensible."
"How can she endure such torture? No, she can't!"
"So, you have to send me away in exchange for your daughter."
Lin Chunhuan gasped for breath, as if saying this sentence had used up all her strength, but Princess Lingyan seemed to gain strength from her words.
She crawled to Lin Chunhuan's side on her knees, and slowly stroked her cheek with her skinny hands, her movements gentle and soft. "Fu'an, good Fu'an."
"Don't blame Auntie, don't blame me. You should have gone there. Don't blame me. You can't blame me!"
"Don't worry, this medicine is very powerful. You just need to sleep and you won't feel anything at all. When you fall asleep, auntie will take you down the mountain and send you to the inn. Everything will be over, everything will be... wooooooo!"
Princess Lingyan didn't finish her words.
A big hand came from behind and covered her mouth, and a hand knife chopped the back of her neck. Her eyes rolled back and she fainted completely.
At this time, Chang Huaijin rushed in from outside, and Lin Chunhuan slowly sat up straight, not looking like she had been drugged at all. She just stood up and bowed to Madam Chang who was hugging Princess Lingyan, "Thank you, mother."
"What are you going to do next?"
Madam Chang frowned, looking at Princess Lingyan with a look of pity in her eyes, "She is also a pitiful person."
"Let's deal with the people in the inn first." Lin Chunhuan took a deep breath and looked at Princess Lingyan with a complicated look.
It was obvious that this person wanted to hurt her, but she just couldn't hate him at all. There was only deep sadness in her mind. Lin Chunhuan pursed her lips. She was not the kind of person who would belittle herself.
Nor do I want to take all the blame on myself.
But at the same time, she was well aware of their innocence and pity. Her tightly pursed lips relaxed slightly, and Lin Chunhuan let out a long sigh, "Think of a way to rescue her daughter first."
"That's all I can do."
"Ahuan, this is not your fault." Chang Huaijin frowned.
Ever since Caiyun told the story about Princess Lingyan, although Lin Chunhuan felt sad and guilty, she never overestimated human nature and would rather guess wrong than be careless.
If Princess Lingyan came to the villa and made any request, whether it was for shelter or for the Chang family to help her escape, or even if she asked Lin Chunhuan to return to the Yihe tribe to replace her, there would be no problem at all.
The only problem was that she didn't ask for anything, and didn't say anything else except asking to stay with me.
Such an anomaly really does not allow us to be careless.
Of course, Lin Chunhuan also guessed that Princess Lingyan must have a reason to do this. This unknown reason made them dare not act rashly, which led to today's drama.
Lin Chunhuan, whose body had been chilled by the rain, felt a moment of relief when he fell into a warm embrace. He managed a smile and said, "With my father's decree, the Yihe people won't easily leave their fiefdom. Besides, a hundred girls have already been sent there, so it wouldn't make sense to kidnap the princess."
"They must have outside help. I'll leave the people in the inn to you. Make sure to rescue the girl."
Lin Chunhuan seemed to be extremely tired, and his voice was very soft, but Chang Huaijin still listened carefully and responded seriously, "Okay, don't worry."
"besides……"
"Don't worry about it anymore!" Looking at her pale face, Madam Chang put Princess Lingyan aside and said, "Ah Huan, you're not in good condition right now. Don't worry about it for now. Go back and rest. Leave the rest to us!"
Lin Chunhuan really wanted to say thank you to Mrs. Chang, but he couldn't say it.
She had put in too much effort, and coupled with the fact that she hadn't eaten much recently, she finally couldn't hold on and fell asleep.
She slept soundly and when she woke up, it was pitch black outside the window. There was only a sheep-horn lantern hanging in the corner, swaying in the wind. The slightest movement woke the figure beside the bed.
"Princess, you're awake!"
As Caiyun spoke, the candlelight in the room was lit, revealing her face, which had become noticeably thinner. "You've been unconscious for two days, and it scared everyone!"
