After coughing, to avoid being discovered, Si Jin carefully wiped the "blood" from the corner of her lips and continued, "In a few days, I will probably be sentenced to beheading, or exiled, or at the very least, I will be enslaved and whipped and bullied by others, and I will never see Your Highness again."
"I admit that I have done a very poor job as Grand Tutor, so I will give Your Highness this last lesson. That's all I have to say, Your Highness..."
Si Jin called out, then, holding the wine pot, swayed as he stood up: "Please go back."
After saying that, he raised the wine jug again and poured it into his mouth.
But as soon as his hand reached halfway through the air, Yuwen Linyuan grabbed it tightly and then, little by little, took away his wine pot.
Something seemed to be ignited in the boy's red eyes as he stared intently at the fragile, drunken man before him, his gaze filled with a powerful aggression.
Si Jin lowered his eyes, a barely perceptible curve appearing at the corner of his lips: "What? Is Your Highness going to snatch my wine? Come on, since the Yuwen family has already taken everything, let's offer Your Highness another cup."
Just as Si Jin was about to get the wine, Yuwen Linyuan suddenly threw the wine pot on the ground.
Amidst the clanging and clattering sounds, he lowered his head and swallowed all the wine from between Si Jin's collarbones.
Whether it was the fragrance of "Love's Delight" or the overwhelming emotions in my heart that I couldn't tell, I was simply overwhelmed.
Without saying a word, Yuwen Linyuan grabbed Si Jin's waist, hoisted him onto his shoulder, and placed him on the couch.
"Jinjin, Jinjin, my Jinjin." He pronounced the name of the person in front of him word by word, and neatly and efficiently untied his belt.
Her emotions were nearly out of control, yet she remained devout as she kissed every scar on his body: "I won't let you die, damn them, you're mine, I love you."
I love you from the bottom of my soul, and I can't bear to see you suffer even the slightest grievance.
… …
Outside the door, several guards on night duty noticed something amiss and hurriedly gathered at the door of Si Jin's bedroom.
But Uncle Xu quietly chased them away.
The guards worriedly said, "Uncle Xu, there's the sound of fighting inside. Yuwen Cheng is coming in aggressively. I'm afraid the Grand Eunuch is in danger..."
"It's alright, it's alright." Uncle Xu hurriedly chased away several loyal servants and went to boil water himself.
He regretted thinking the young prince was a scoundrel a few days ago. If he could still come to find the young master now, it must be true love.
Well, he'll still offer his blessings, but somehow he feels like his own carefully cultivated cabbage has been eaten by a pig.
Heartbreaking (╥﹏╥)
… …
Because her acting was so superb, Si Jin didn't even realize when she had fainted.
When he regained consciousness, he heard the puppy's soft sobs. He tried to move his fingers, but he was too weak. He took several deep breaths before he could speak: "Hungry..."
After taking good care of Si Jin, Yuwen Linyuan went out early in the morning to find other doctors to examine her, and also asked several high-ranking officials in the court who were on good terms with him.
After learning that Si Jin was telling the truth, she hurriedly came back and hugged him, and for some reason, the more she hugged him, the more aggrieved she felt.
It was as if a drowning person had finally grasped a sliver of salvation before losing consciousness. Even though he knew that this salvation was only as heavy as a straw, he was still willing to stay by his side and protect him at all costs.
"Uncle Xu cooked some porridge, I'll go get it for you." Si Jin's words at least brought Yuwen Linyuan back to his senses. He hurriedly ran out the door, brought the porridge, and carefully fed it to him.
After finally finishing feeding him, the person in his arms grinned mischievously, showing no trace of yesterday's despair: "Oh? Did Your Highness cry because you were wronged?"
