Qin Chu didn't wake up because she had a fever.

In a daze, she had many dreams, in which she kept crying very sadly.

She dreamed of her mother. She wanted to say, mother, please take me with you. I don’t want to be left alone.

But in the end, the queen mother kept getting farther and farther away from her, and she couldn't catch up.

"Princess, princess?"

Qin Chu's personal maid Yu Rui stepped forward worriedly and met Qin Chu's tearful eyes.

Qin Chu's eyes were a little confused. It took him a while to distinguish between dreams and reality.

She looked at Yu Rui blankly, and her voice was hoarse when she spoke, "...where is this?"

Yu Rui wiped her tears and said, "This is Jinghe Palace! You fainted just now. Princess Changrong asked someone to help bring you here, and she also called the imperial doctor."

She was a little grateful to Jiang Li. After all, if she had refused to help just now, she would have suffered a lot if she had to take the princess back.

The princess didn't even know how serious her illness would be.

Qin Chu's eyes moved, and a glimmer of hope ignited in his heart again.

"Jiang Li?" She took Yu Rui's hand and held it tightly, "She...is she willing to help me?"

Yu Rui looked at her princess's hopeful eyes, and then thought about Jiang Li's last words, she couldn't bear to say them.

She hesitated for a moment, but Qin Chu struggled to get out of bed, "...I'll go find her!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Rui hurriedly stopped her and said, "Princess, please don't be impulsive!"

"Actually... Princess Changrong finally sent someone to deliver the message."

Qin Chu hurriedly asked, "What did she say?"

"Princess Changrong said...she said, go back when you wake up."

"And." Yu Rui didn't know why, but she remembered very clearly what Lan Yin asked her to tell the princess in the end.

At this moment, he was stunned and recited word for word, "Being born in the royal family, tears are useless. It is better to rely on yourself than to ask others."

After Yu Rui said the last word, the light in Qin Chu's eyes dimmed again, and he let go of his hand and fell on the bed as if frustrated, tears falling silently.

Seeing her princess like this, Yu Rui felt uncomfortable in her heart and couldn't help but persuade her, "Princess, don't worry, things may turn around..."

Qin Chu closed his eyes hard, and then suddenly raised his hand to wipe away the tears on his face.

When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were fierce, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Since tears are useless, I will never cry again in the future!"

"Since asking for help is useless, I will rely on myself from now on!"

She grabbed Yu Rui's hand and said, "Let's go home!"

Yu Rui was unexpectedly startled by the ferocity in Qin Chu's eyes, "Princess, this is the middle of the night..."

"What happened in the middle of the night?" Qin Chu said firmly, "Since she refuses to help me, I don't mind staying any longer!"

"Yu Rui, I can't even have this bit of backbone, and I can't let them see the joke anymore!"

Yu Rui looked at Qin Chu blankly, feeling as if she had never seen her like this before.

It was obvious that he was still the same person, he even had a fever and was sick, but his energy and spirit seemed to be completely different from the person before.

Yu Rui's eyes were hot and her mood was inexplicably agitated. Then she wiped away her tears and nodded firmly, "Okay, princess, let's go home!"

The once willful and mischievous little princess finally grew up overnight.

The next day when Jiang Li was having breakfast, he remembered to ask Lan Yin, "When did Qin Chu leave?"

"I still had a fever in the middle of the night, so I woke up and left."

Jiang Li chuckled lightly when he heard this, "He still has some backbone."

Lan Yin replied honestly, "It's the princess's words that are so exciting."

Lan Yin naturally couldn't rest assured that Qin Chu and his servant were in Jinghe Palace, so she kept watching secretly last night. She also listened to the entire conversation between Qin Chu and Yu Rui after he woke up.

Hearing what she said, Jiang Li just smiled and said nothing more.

Lan Yin, on the other hand, hesitated for a moment before taking the initiative and said: "Princess...actually I don't understand."

"You can be considered the one who orchestrated the overthrow of the Queen and Prince's lineage, so you and the Fourth Princess are actually enemies."

"Although ants are small, if there are too many, they can kill an elephant. If she knows the truth in the future, I'm afraid it will be detrimental to you... Were you too kind to her yesterday?"

Jiang Li paused with his chopsticks and looked up at Lan Yin, "Do you think I shouldn't bring Qin Chu back to Jinghe Palace, or I shouldn't mention that sentence more? If you think you shouldn't, then why didn't you Say, but you wait until everything is an established fact before you ask?"

Lan Yin shook her head, "This is the palace. Even if you don't help the fourth princess, someone else will."

"If this happens, the fourth princess will not do anything, but she will definitely hate the princess even more, and she will definitely be dissatisfied with you when the matter reaches the ears of the emperor."

"Although the princess is definitely not afraid, saving her is just a simple effort. It is better than causing a lot of trouble for nothing."

"So it is right for the princess to save the fourth princess. I have no doubt about this."

Jiang Li chuckled, "Is that the latter?"

Lan Yin then said, "The latter... I don't think it's inappropriate. The decision made by the princess must be correct, so I will not use my own ideas to interfere with the decision of the princess."

"It's just that the princess's suggestion was not necessary, and my subordinates didn't think the princess was a merciful person. So after thinking about it all night, I still didn't quite understand what the princess was thinking, so I couldn't help but ask."

Jiang Li looked at Lan Yin with some surprise, thinking that this girl has really become her brainless brag now.

Fortunately, she is a wise and powerful person. If someone else made a wrong decision, the people around her would not remind her of it. How could she die from nausea?

Of course, that was someone else.

For Jiang Li, she still likes Lan Yin's unconditional obedience and trust. After all, she just likes to be arbitrary.

"Do you think, apart from the fact that he is a threat to me, Qin Chu deserves to die?"

Lan Yin carefully thought about what Qin Chu had done in the past. Some were arrogant and willful, and some were secretly poking at Jiang Li.

But... to say that he should die, it's not that bad.

At least she had never touched anyone's life on her hands, and she didn't use any underhanded methods to torment people.

The most outrageous thing for Jiang Li was to put some mice in the house to scare people.

Thinking of this, Lan Yin hesitated for a moment before shaking her head, "A crime that does not lead to death."

"Yes, sin does not lead to death."

Jiang Li smiled and said, "I got rid of the queen and brought down the Fu family. I won't say anything high-sounding about doing justice for heaven. To put it bluntly, the biggest reason is that they blocked my way and threatened me. "

"But there is also a reason why they have committed many evil deeds and have no regrets about dying, so I can be merciless."

"Compared with them, Qin Chu only has one who may pose a threat to me, so I won't want to kill her just because of this."

"As a human being, no matter how capable you are, no matter how you walk through a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, you still have to keep your last bit of kindness and compassion."

"Otherwise...what's the difference between him and a beast?"
