The emperor sent Wen Jingchi to protect her. If she acts rashly, she will be discovered and the result will be more trouble than gain.

Wen Chenxuan's eyes suddenly lit up: "You can pretend to be a cook delivering food, or just find someone else and hide in the temple. Don't kill anyone unless you are absolutely sure, so as not to arouse suspicion."

The swords of those who were sent to assassinate him were poisoned, so Chu Weiyue's injuries took a long time to heal.

After the diagnosis by Imperial Doctor Zhou, he needed to change the medicinal materials for her every day. He had recently been accompanying the Queen Mother to the temple to pray every day, so Chu Weiyue also moved into the temple and asked Imperial Doctor Zhou to help with her recuperation.

After a few days, the poison in her body was completely eliminated, but her body was still a little weak.

The wound has not healed completely and it still hurts a lot when I move a little.

At dusk, Chu Weiyue felt hungry and struggled to stand up.

She opened the door and wanted to go for a walk in the yard to get some fresh air, when she suddenly saw a man passing by her.

The man was wearing ordinary clothes, but his eyes were quite sharp.

This made Chu Weiyue feel a little strange. This man clearly looked like an ordinary person, but why did he have such a terrifying look?

"Who are you? Stop right there." Chu Weiyue immediately walked over and asked harshly.

The killer was stunned for a moment, then immediately bent his body towards Chu Weiyue.

"Miss, is there anything I can help you with? I'm the cook here."

This made Chu Weiyue a little puzzled, but after thinking about it, he dispelled his doubts. If he was really a bad guy, how could he walk here so openly?

I looked at him for a few times and found that he was not panicked at all and had a smile on his face. It didn't seem strange to see this.

But for some reason, Chu Weiyue still felt uncomfortable and continued to ask a few more questions to get him to leave.

After standing for a long time, I started to feel uncomfortable again because of the wind.

After accompanying the Queen Mother in praying, Wen Jingchi came to visit.

The little monk had already prepared the medicine and personally brought it to Chu Weiyue.

"Take medicine." Wen Jingchi came to Chu Weiyue with a bowl in his hand.

Chu Weiyue looked pale and sat up weakly.

Seeing her like this, Wen Jingchi glared at her in dissatisfaction.

"You're so useless. You even need my help to drink the medicine." He picked up the spoon with difficulty, helped Chu Weiyue up, let her lean on his arms, and clumsily fed her the medicine.

Chu Weiyue blinked her big watery eyes and kept staring at him. No matter what he fed her, she drank it all up, as if she was drinking honey instead of bitter medicine.

Her gaze was extremely scorching, and it made Wen Jingchi feel uneasy.

The Queen Mother came to see Chu Weiyue because she was worried about her. After all, the woman was injured because of her grandson.

As soon as I walked in, I saw this scene.

I couldn't help but laugh and tease: "You two really look so affectionate. I'm really envious of you."

These words made Wen Jingchi's face change instantly: "Grandma, don't get me wrong, I just felt sorry for her because she was weak, so I fed her medicine."

The Queen Mother did not ask any further questions, but just smiled and came to Chu Weiyue's side.

He gently held her hand and said, "Tell me why you risked your life to protect the prince."

In fact, she knew some things clearly, but she just wanted Chu Weiyue to say it herself.

Looking at Wen Jingchi, Chu Weiyue bit her lip and pretended to look pitiful.

"Your Majesty is also a woman. I think you know very well under what circumstances a woman would risk her life for a man. I didn't think too much at the time. I just didn't want him to get hurt..."

The Queen Mother was moved, but pretended to be regretful on the surface.

"But you should know that he is the son of the Emperor and cannot decide his own marriage. Even if he cannot give you a result or a future, are you willing to protect him with your life?"

"Of course I do! Queen Mother, if you care about someone, you will understand my feelings. If loving someone requires commitment and results, then what kind of love is that?"

Her tone was righteous and stubborn.

Such a tone made the Queen Mother nod with satisfaction.

From this point of view, Chu Weiyue is really sincere to her grandson.

Looking at the empress dowager's kind eyes, Chu Weiyue looked at Wen Jingchi again and complained quietly in his heart.

[But some people know the truth and just ignore me...]

The Queen Mother's eyes were filled with depression. She glanced at Wen Jingchi and became somewhat dissatisfied with her grandson.

At this time, the palace maid came over with a large box in her hand.

It was filled with precious medicinal herbs and a small box of beautiful pearls.

"I have been busy praying for blessings these days and have forgotten about rewarding you. You should be able to use these herbs to nourish your body. These pearls were rewarded to me by the late emperor. I am giving them to you now. You young women will look the most beautiful wearing these things."

She stood up and walked to the side of Wenjing Pond with some dignity.

"Jing Chi, no matter what, Wei Yue was injured because of you. Now that she is not well, you should stay here and take care of her. As a man, you must be responsible to the end. You must stay with her until she recovers. Do you understand?"

The Queen Mother's tone was so oppressive that she left almost no room for anyone to refute or question her.

Wen Jingchi frowned and sighed a little depressed.

"But grandma, I still have to pray for you and protect you..."

"Every monk here is highly skilled in martial arts, and there are so many guards. Even if there are more assassins, they can't get close to me. You don't have to worry about my safety, and you don't have to worry about the blessing."

Wen Jingchi looked unhappy and instinctively wanted to refuse, but the Queen Mother had given the order and he could not refuse her face.

Chu Weiyue immediately sat up from the bed and knelt on the bed excitedly.

"Thank you, Queen Mother, for your gift."

The Queen Mother looked at her meaningfully, then left with the maid.

Chu Weiyue deliberately lay on the bed, pretending to be weak, and asked Wen Jingchi to pour her some water.

She was not satisfied even when the food was right in front of her mouth, and asked someone to feed her personally, which made Wen Jingchi very upset.

Two days later, her injuries were almost healed.

On the morning of the third day, I was finally able to walk on my own.

I have been lying in bed for a long time recently due to an injury, and I haven't gone outside to breathe fresh air. I feel like I am getting moldy.

After breakfast, Chu Weiyue came to the back mountain of the temple, intending to relax his muscles.

I saw a few young monks carrying water from the foot of the mountain, and some were chopping firewood.

Chu Weiyue was puzzled, and strode over: "Young chefs, do you want to cook?"

After a moment of hesitation, several young monks immediately nodded: "Yes, lady donor, we are preparing lunch in the temple."

Thinking of the cook he met a few days ago, Chu Weiyue looked a little strange.
