Chapter 126 Lin Jinxiu was injured
The group walked along with laughter and joy, and finally arrived at Qingshui County before nightfall. There was only one inn in Qingshui County, and this inn had been booked by Lingyi in advance to ensure that everyone could get a comfortable rest.
Yun Yuxi happily enjoyed the hot bath, washing away all the fatigue from the journey. After everyone had their fill of food and drink, they returned to their respective rooms and fell into a sweet dream.
After riding for several days, Yun Yuxi's inner thigh skin had been worn and broken, and the pain was unbearable. She took out the ointment from the space ring and carefully applied it to the wound. She couldn't help but feel a little lost: "Yan Wuque, are you missing me too? My thigh is injured, it really hurts! But it was safe along the way, I hope you don't worry." Suddenly, Yun Yuxi thought that maybe she should write a letter to Yan Wuque, but she quickly dismissed the idea. After all, he must have secret guards following him, and they would naturally pass the message back to Kyoto. In this case, why should she do this?
At the same time, Yan Wuque, who was far away in Kyoto, was walking alone in the palace in his wheelchair, looking at the familiar scenery around him, and felt inexplicably lonely and desolate. Since Yun Yuxi left, the palace seemed to have lost its former vitality.
In Shuiyunju, Lin Jinxiu was taking a comfortable bath in the steaming hot tub, while the maid Hanxiang beside her was wiping her body carefully.
"Hanxiang, I heard that Yun Yuxi went to Lingcheng under the imperial decree. Is this true?" Lin Jinxiu suddenly asked.
"That's true, Madam Concubine. The servants in the palace all said so. I also made some inquiries and it is said that the princess has been gone for several days." Hanxiang answered carefully while gently rubbing Lin Jinxiu's back.
"Great!" Lin Jinxiu was so excited that she almost jumped up, "Hanxiang, my chance has finally come! Quick, help me wash and dress up, we will go to see the prince right away!"
Next, Lin Jinxiu began to try on gorgeous clothes one by one, and kept asking Hanxiang if they looked good on her. Hanxiang looked at her helplessly, muttering to herself, "Your Highness is already very beautiful, how could any of these clothes not suit you?" But she still replied obediently, "Your Highness is naturally beautiful, and every piece of clothing can show your unique charm and beauty."
Hearing Hanxiang's praise, Lin Jinxiu nodded with satisfaction, then picked up an exquisite jewelry box from the dressing table, opened it, took out a pair of dazzling earrings, handed them to Hanxiang and said, "Hanxiang, these earrings are for you. I'll just wear this aqua blue skirt."
Hanxiang was filled with gratitude and quickly knelt down to express her gratitude: "Thank you, Concubine, for the reward!"
"As long as you are loyal to me, I will definitely give you benefits if I become a princess in the future." Lin Jinxiu looked at Hanxiang meaningfully and said. She knew in her heart that one must use both kindness and severity to treat servants. She had so many jewelry and a rich dowry. Why not give Hanxiang some if it can make her loyal and work for her?
"Master, Master Jing is here. He's in the study," Chi Yan said, then pushed Yan Wuque to the study and stood guard outside the door.
"Zimo, our people found out that Concubine Shu's miscarriage was caused by the eldest prince of southern Xinjiang, Nan Ruoming. The method was very secretive. Should this matter be disclosed?" Jing Zichu asked.
"When the news about this matter gets out, it says that there is a kind of poisonous insect in southern Xinjiang that can make people sick without anyone knowing, and that someone in southern Xinjiang has used that kind of poisonous insect to cause abortion."
"Why is this?" Jing Zichu asked a little confused.
"Zichu, find something for the harem to do so that the princess will be safe. The princess went to Lingcheng. I'm afraid she is in danger of death." Yan Wuque said worriedly.
"Thanks to sister-in-law's medical skills, the people of Lingcheng should be saved. I got the news recently. The border is not very peaceful, and the Mu family is in a passive position now. Sister-in-law doesn't seem to know much about the Mu family's affairs. Should we wait for sister-in-law to come back and tell her?" Jing Zichu said slowly, looking at Yan Wuque's worried expression.
"Wait until she comes back. She has the right to know about the Mu family's affairs. You go back first. I'm a little tired," Yan Wuque said, looking at Jing Zichu.
Jing Zichu nodded and climbed over the wall.
"Chiyan, is the prince in the study?" Lin Jinxiu asked with a smile.
"Reply, Concubine Lin, the prince is in the study. Does Concubine Lin want to talk to the prince about anything? Please go and inform him," Chi Yan said calmly.
"Chi Yan. Someone ran over there. Go and see what happened?" Lin Jinxiu suddenly said, pointing to one side. Chi Yan looked over and saw a figure flash by. Chi Yan chased after it without thinking much.
Lin Jinxiu looked at Chi Yan's back and smiled triumphantly.
So he knocked on the door gently.
Yan Wuque was thinking about Yun Yuxi when he heard a knock on the door. He instinctively thought that the secret guard had returned, so he said, "Come in."
Lin Jinxiu smiled proudly, pushed open the door and walked in.
"Your Highness, I have missed you. I came to see you. Tonight I will serve you, Your Highness," Lin Jinxiu said and lowered her head shyly, muttering to herself, "There is no cat that does not steal fish," she had deliberately sprinkled aphrodisiac on her body when she came, and she had already taken the antidote.
"Why are you here? Get out!" Yan Wuque scolded expressionlessly.
"Your Highness, let me massage your legs," she said as she walked forward regardless of Yan Wuque's livid face. She knew in her heart that the fragrance's effect could only be better exerted at close range.
Yan Wuque suddenly smelled a sweet fragrance and couldn't help feeling nauseous. When Lin Jinxiu approached, he snapped his fingers and Ling Er appeared in the study, with his face buried in Lin Jinxiu's chest. Lin Jinxiu rolled to the door with a bang like a kite with a broken string. Chi Yan happened to come back and saw this scene, and realized that he had been lured away.
"Your Highness, Concubine Lin has aphrodisiac perfume on her body," Ling Er said expressionlessly.
When Chi Yan heard this, he immediately walked into the room and stayed away from Lin Jinxiu to avoid being affected by the aphrodisiac incense.
Chi Yan told Yan Wuque everything that had just happened. Yan Wuque was shivering and said, "Lin Jinxiu, I will give you two choices today. Choose one."
The blood flowing from the corner of Lin Jinxiu's mouth was particularly glaring. She looked at Yan Wuque with horror in her eyes, and her chest felt like it was burning with pain.
"First, you like men so much that you are willing to use aphrodisiac incense. How about I help you and let the guards in the palace have some meat, or do you choose twenty lashes? Hmm?"
Lin Jinxiu shook her head desperately, blood gushing out of her mouth, and cried, "Prince, are you really so heartless?"
At this time, Hanxiang ran over and knelt on the ground, begging for mercy and kowtowing, asking Yan Wuque to spare Lin Jinxiu.
Lin Jinxiu finally chose to be beaten, but Hanxiang lay on top of her. If it weren't for Hanxiang's protection, Lin Jinxiu would have been crippled if not dead.
Hanxiang was sent back to Shuiyunju, dying.
