From what I overheard the woman inside the house, it seemed she was worried that her father would be old and no one would take care of him, so she wanted to take advantage of her proximity to find Jinzhi to be her next supporter.
"You're dreaming!" Yun Duoduo sneered.
If we're talking about getting the moon first from a well-lit building, then it should be Yun Duoduo who's closer.
Jin Jinzhi had been by her side since she was a child. He had been to the palace, and she had been to the Jin residence. The two knew each other inside and out and understood each other better than anyone else.
Upon hearing Yun Duoduo's cold snort, the horse seemed to have been greatly deceived. It took two steps back in disbelief, its voice trembling slightly: "You, you, aren't you going to bring me any sweet soybean meal?"
Yun Duoduo didn't expect the horse to react this way, and waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, I wasn't talking about you, I brought it for you."
Humans experience a wide range of emotions, but horses have it much simpler. For a horse, being able to eat a mouthful of sweet soybean meal is a huge deal.
What bad intentions could a horse possibly have? It just wants a bite of sweet peas.
"Don't worry, haha, I'll bring it for you!" Yun Duoduo stroked the horse's fur to comfort it.
...
The sound of rain mingled with the sound of a horse-drawn carriage moving outside.
"Aunt Xiang!"
Yun Duoduo had finished chatting with the horse when she heard the sound of a horse wheel rolling on the ground at the gate of the mansion, so she ran outside.
Now that Ah Xiang has arrived, she should first use the medicine in the medicine box to change the dressing on Jin Jinzhi's wound.
She was running too fast, and when she stepped over the steps at the gate of the mansion, Yun Duoduo slipped, lost her balance, and fell to the ground with a thud.
Ouch!
"It hurts!"
The fall was quite severe; the umbrella in his hand flew off, and one of his shoes also flew off.
The guards at the door hurriedly took a big step forward to help, but they were also overwhelmed by the backward fall, and those who came to help all fell to the ground.
"Princess! Princess, are you alright?"
As soon as Ah Xiang got off the carriage, she saw this terrifying scene and hurriedly walked up the steps.
Hearing the noise, the servants rushed over to check and grabbed Yun Duoduo's arm. Yun Duoduo cried out in pain as they pulled her arm: "Ouch, no, no, don't move, it hurts if I move!"
Yun Duoduo tried to stand up, only to find that she had twisted her ankle, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead from the pain.
Seeing Yun Duoduo frowning, the guards, though they too had fallen to the ground and strained their backs, were still very worried about Yun Duoduo's condition.
"Quickly, bring the doctor over!" a guard shouted.
"Oh dear, why bother calling a doctor? I can treat myself!"
"Quickly summon your prince, and don't call me princess."
Since he was injured, he naturally wanted his brother Jinzhi to take good care of him. In this way, he wouldn't have time to think about the beautiful Li Qiqi who had just moved in.
As for not wanting everyone to call her princess...
She didn't want the new person who moved in to know her identity; it would be too boring if everyone knew she was a princess.
Although the guards were somewhat puzzled, they still did as Yun Duoduo instructed.
"Yes." The guard jogged off to find Jin Jinzhi.
Yun Duoduo gritted her teeth in pain, beads of sweat forming on her forehead.
All she wanted to do at that moment was to give herself anesthesia and take a painkiller.
Soon, Jin Jinzhi came running over like a gust of wind: "Duoduo!"
"Get out of the way!" Jin Jinzhi said anxiously, pushing aside the guards blocking his way.
He strode up to Yun Duoduo, picked her up, and carried her to the bedroom.
"Quickly, summon the physician from the manor!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Jin Jinzhi walked very fast, and Yun Duoduo was held tightly in his arms. Although there was no need to worry about her being thrown out of his arms, Jin Jinzhi held her waist and legs with too much force.
To ease the pressure, she simply hooked her arms around his neck and buried her head in his chest.
Jin Jinzhi stiffened, but did not stop walking. He looked at the little person nestled in his arms, and tenderly pulled her closer, stroking her head to comfort her.
It was very damp outside, with the smell of earth mixed in, but Yun Duoduo could still smell the faint, fragrant wood scent on Jin Jinzhi's body, which smelled very nice and made her feel very at ease.
Upon arriving at the bedroom, Jin Jinzhi gently placed Yun Duoduo on the bed. Both of them were a little wet because they hadn't used an umbrella, but because Jin Jinzhi was protecting Yun Duoduo's head, not many parts of her body were wet.
"It hurts so much..."
Yun Duoduo leaned against the bed, enduring the pain as she took out silver needles and pills from her sleeve. She applied herbal compresses to her ankles while using the silver needles and massage techniques to relieve the pain.
"Duoduo, are you feeling better?"
Yun Duoduo was in so much pain that she was covered in sweat and didn't want to say a word. She looked at Jin Jinzhi's concerned gaze, smiled, and indicated that she was fine.
She pointed to Jin Jinzhi's wet clothes.
Jin Jinzhi understood. Since this was his bedroom, he went behind the screen, quickly changed his clothes, and came out.
"What's going on at the gate of the mansion?" Jin Jin asked the guard beside her.
The guard looked bewildered, but the steward quickly stepped forward and said, "The steps at the entrance of the Prince's Mansion have recently been renovated. It rained today, and the steps, which haven't dried completely, have become muddy again."
"The road surface becomes a bit slippery, and if you walk too fast, you are likely to fall."
"Who built these steps?" Jin Jinzhi asked angrily.
"I think we don't need to do this job anymore. We can just find a slave trader to sell him off. Didn't you even consider the season when you were repairing the steps? It's cold now and it's likely to rain. Couldn't you have waited until a sunny day to repair them?! And you even hurt Duoduo." Jin Jinzhi was very dissatisfied.
"Well……"
"It was... uh, it was ordered to be repaired by the First Madam."
The butler hesitated and spoke in a low voice, looking embarrassed as he carefully observed the expression on Jin Jinzhi's face.
The First Madam was Xun Yunge, Jin Jinzhi's birth mother. A few days ago, when she came to visit Jin Jinzhi, she noticed that the steps at the entrance of the mansion were a bit loose, so she ordered someone to repair them.
Jin Jinzhi was taken aback. He couldn't very well sell his mother off. Feeling a little embarrassed, he waved to the butler and said, "Once the rain stops, hurry up and fix it again."
"Place a wooden board at the entrance to remind everyone to watch their step."
After saying that, Jin Jinzhi ignored the person next to her and took out a small green bottle from the bedside.
Jin Jinzhi gently picked up Yun Duoduo's foot, pulled out the stopper from the small green bottle, and gently applied the medicine to Yun Duoduo's ankle, massaging it lightly.
Yun Duoduo felt a cool sensation, and felt much better after applying the medicine. "I've already applied the medicine."
She waited until everyone had left before giving herself a painkiller.
[It really hurts, it's unbearable!]
