"I'm awake. Thank you, Your Highness."
"That's good. These are some snacks from my palace. I saw you didn't have much to eat, so I brought them for you."
Tian Yu handed the snacks to Rong'er before entering the room. Qiu Xue was already able to sit up on the bed. When she saw Tian Yu come in, she tried to get up, but Tian Yu quickly stopped her, saying, "No need to get up. I just came to take a look and will leave in a little while."
"I heard from Rong'er that it was the Crown Princess who saved me, and Qiu Xue is extremely grateful."
"You're welcome. I just happened to be passing by and heard Rong'er crying, so I came in to check on her."
"I have nothing to repay you with, this is the only valuable thing I have on me, please accept it, Your Highness."
When Tian Yu saw her take out a jade pendant, she quickly waved her hand and said, "No need, I already said I didn't do anything, I just asked Rong'er to invite the imperial physician for you."
"If the Crown Princess is unwilling to accept this, then please accept Qiu Xue's bow." Qiu Xue said, and was about to get off the bed and kneel down.
"Wait, you're not fully recovered yet. Let's do it another day."
Qiu Xue was helped back to bed by Tian Yu. Tian Yu looked at Qiu Xue, then at Rong'er, and said with a smile, "Have some snacks."
Rong'er handed the pastries to Qiu Xue, who took a bite and then put them down, looking at Tian Yu and saying, "Does the Crown Princess have something to ask?"
"I want to know if it's because I stole your position as Crown Princess that you've suffered this fate?"
"No, it has nothing to do with the Crown Princess."
"That's good. I thought it was because I hurt you like this."
"It was my own fault for being so stubborn. I don't blame anyone. On the contrary, I should thank you. If it weren't for you, I might still be the Crown Princess."
"It seems you weren't doing this willingly either. Being the Crown Princess isn't easy!"
"Yes, you need to be extra careful."
"Thank you for reminding me."
"Consort Li, her?"
"Her? Let's not talk about her. I heard the Crown Princess is from Qiu?"
"I am no longer the Crown Princess, so just call me Qiu Xue."
"Alright, Qiuxue, then don't call me Crown Princess anymore, just call me Tian Yu."
"Alright, I'll listen to the Crown Princess, not Tian Yu." Qiu Xue noticed that Tian Yu's mood had improved considerably.
"By the way, I heard that you almost caused Consort Li to miscarry, is that true?"
Yes and no.
Looking into Qiu Xue's sincere eyes, Tian Yu smiled and said, "It seems that this Consort Li is quite dishonest!"
"You believe me."
"I just felt that you weren't that kind of person, and it just so happens that I know a thing or two about Consort Li."
"I had heard of you before and read your poems, but I never had the chance to meet you. I am very happy to meet you today."
"Don't say that. It's my honor to meet such a beautiful woman. That prince is really blind." After saying that, Tian Yu saw that Qiu Xue was a little unhappy, and said with a smile, "Let's not talk about him. Oh! By the way, are all the people of your Qiu Kingdom so beautiful?"
Qiu Xue nodded, and Tian Yu said, "I really want to visit Qiu Kingdom sometime."
"Autumn Country is beautiful; you must go and see it if you have the chance."
"Yeah, I think so too. I don't know if there will be another chance. It's getting late, so I'll head back now. You should get some rest too."
"Thank you, Tian Yu."
"As long as you don't hate me."
"How could that be? I'm more than grateful. If it weren't for what you said, I might have died last night."
"Don't always think about death. Only by living is there anything possible." This was said to Qiu Xue, and also to herself.
