Rebirth as Princess Jin again

Mu Lin only remembered that she vaguely replied: "It is my mission to save you. If I can rescue you, my mission is completed. You don't have to thank me."

After saying this, she felt her eyes blurred for a while and then fell asleep.

She didn't know how long she slept, but she felt like someone was always beside her in a daze, tirelessly replacing the hot scarf on her forehead, and a burst of coolness dispelled the heat on her body.

The hand was a little rough, and when she accidentally rubbed it on her cheek, she felt a slight sting.

She couldn't help but frown, but the rough hand touched her eyebrow again, as if to smooth out the wrinkles between her eyebrows. Mu Lin reached out her hand in a daze and knocked down the disturbing hand.

Suddenly there was a strong bitter taste in her throat, and Mu Lin subconsciously reached out to block it. She had not been afraid of pain since she was a child, but she was afraid of taking bitter medicine.

But her obstruction did not win the man's pity. She was pinched by the nose and poured bitter medicine into her mouth. The bitter taste spread in her mouth. Mu Lin's brows tightened and she almost vomited.

Suddenly, someone gently opened her mouth and put a round object inside. However, after a while, her mouth was filled with sweetness. The bitter taste finally dissipated, and Mu Lin relaxed her eyebrows with satisfaction.

A low voice came from my ear: "So you love sweets like other women!"

I don't know how many days passed like this, but Mu Lin woke up while half asleep. At that time, the sky was bright outside, and the winter sunshine was warm and luxurious.

She stretched out her hand to block the bright light, and it took her a while to adjust before opening her eyes.

The room was filled with the smell of herbs. She touched her groggy head and forced herself to sit up.

"Creak" sound.

The cold wind from outside sneaked in as the door opened, and the air in the house instantly became a little fresher.

A woman who looked to be in her thirties entered the door. The sun shone in from behind her, making it difficult to see the expression on her face.

It wasn't until she walked to the bed that Mu Lin saw a smile on her face.

"You finally woke up."

The woman looked towards Mu Lin, her voice a little more cordial.

"You don't know that you had a high fever that night, and your whole body was burning hot. Your man was so anxious when he knocked on the door. Fortunately, my man worked as a waiter in a drugstore, and we have some antipyretic herbs at home."

"You don't know that the streets are under martial law these days. You are not allowed to go out. I heard that we are arresting fugitives."

"You are so handsome, but you must not go out. These Beiliao people are very fierce. They will arrest beautiful women when they see them. I heard that your injury was shot by them with arrows when you were running away. It is also a big thank you to you." Damn Da, I remember this house was empty before, why did you suddenly live here?"

Mu Lin didn't understand what the woman said. She only heard her say you're a man.

Mu Lin was about to refute but then remembered that she was what others said was a fugitive, so she hurriedly said: "As soon as the Beiliao people entered the city, we hid in the cellar and didn't dare to go out. These days, the food at home has been eaten, so we wanted to find it." I wanted some food, but I didn’t expect it to be eaten by people from Bei Liao..."

Seeing what she said, the woman hurriedly took over the conversation: "I understand, you didn't dare to go home, so you hid in the house when you saw it was empty!"

Mu Lin nodded awkwardly and breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, sister-in-law!"

The woman's face darkened: "This war has harmed us people. I don't know when Xia Zhaoguo's army will come. If we don't drive out the Northern Liao people, I'm afraid we won't have a good life in the future."

"Oh, look at me, I forgot about the real thing while talking. I made some porridge. You just woke up, so you must be hungry."

Mu Lin glanced at the woman gratefully and asked, "What should I call you?"

"My husband's surname is Qian."

"Sister-in-law Qian, I don't have anything valuable with me, so this silver hairpin is just a thank you gift for taking care of me these days."

Sister-in-law Qian waved her hands and said, "It's just a small favor between neighbors, no need to use it."

Mu Lin put the silver hairpin in her hand into Mrs. Qian's hand and said, "I can feel at ease only if you hold it."

Mrs. Qian pushed it several times and when Mu Lin insisted on giving it to her, she accepted it.

Not long after Mrs. Qian left, the door was pushed open again, and Su Wu walked in with a chill all over his body.

Mu Lin asked: "How is the situation outside?"

Su Wu took a few sips of the tea on the table and said, "Martial law is under way. The streets are full of patrols. We won't be able to leave the city for a while."

Mu Lin moved her left shoulder, and the wound on her shoulder was recovering well.

"Can we find out who saved us that night?"

Su Wu said in a deep voice: "I heard from people nearby that that person is the third prince of Bei Liao, but I don't know why the people of Bei Liao want to help us escape from the prince's mansion."

"Third Prince..." Mu Lin murmured to herself. After a long time, she seemed to want something and said uncertainly: "Could it be Shen Yu?"

Su Wu's face darkened: "Isn't he the little beggar Shen Luoluo picked up and brought home? How did he suddenly transform into the third prince of Beiliao?"

Mu Lin let out a long sigh: "That day, he and the prince went out to investigate Yan Cheng's true identity and were ambushed. If he hadn't stabbed the prince at that time, the prince and the princess would not have fallen off the cliff."

Su Wu suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "Then what does he mean by saving us?"

Mu Lin shook her head: "Maybe he didn't get along with the prince, so he saved us."

Su Wu sneered: "If I had known that he was the one who saved us, I would rather die than accept his kindness."

Mu Lin couldn't figure it out, but there was always someone guarding the door of Shen Yu's house. They didn't dare to go to the door to verify without authorization, and Su Wu didn't dare to run outside all the time. The two had to stay in the small courtyard to recuperate.

After all, Mu Lin was in good health, so the injury didn't have any major sequelae for her, and she soon resumed her activities as before.

She also gets along well with Mrs. Qian next door. There is a door between their houses, which makes it easy to go in and out.

But whenever Mrs. Qian mentioned that Su Wu always used your man, Mu Lin sounded a little shy.

But she was embarrassed to say that they were not husband and wife. Whenever Qian's wife mentioned her, she would always find a different topic. Over time, Qian's sister-in-law just thought that they were newlyweds, and she was a little shy.

The courtyard was very small, with only one bedroom. Mu Lin slept in the bedroom. She didn't care about Su Wu's residence at first. After being nudged by Mrs. Qian, Mu Lin discovered that Su Wu was actually sleeping in the woodshed.

The woodshed was extremely simple. When Mu Lin asked, he just said that he was used to it.

It started to snow again that night. Mu Lin tossed and turned in bed and couldn't sleep. She immediately jumped up from the bed and walked straight to the door of the woodshed. When she pushed the door open, she saw Su Wu lying in the haystack, covered with a blanket. The bed had a thin quilt.

Su Wu woke up with a start and picked up the sword in his hand. It wasn't until he saw clearly that it was her that he lay down again and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
