But later, after the young lady got closer to His Highness Mingwang, she gradually became much gentler.

I haven't seen such a cold lady for a long time.

What did Yang Rongxin do to the young lady to make her hate him so much?

Wangyou couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Miss?"

Yang Susu came back to her senses and shook her head: "It's okay, go get some hot water, I'll take a bath, I'm tired."

"Yes."

Wangyou brought the already lit golden charcoal basin to Yang Susu's feet and said, "Just now, the falling snow covered Miss's clothes on the eaves. They must have been wet. Miss, please warm them up in the charcoal basin first. I will prepare them now."

"Ah-"

As soon as Wangyou finished speaking, Yang Susu sneezed.

Wangyou said anxiously, "Miss, you must have caught a cold. Why don't you change into dry clothes first and wait for the hot water to come before taking a bath!"

Yang Susu rubbed her temples and said, "I do seem to have caught a cold. It's okay. Go downstairs and prepare the bath water. I'll take some medicine later."

"Yes, ma'am."

Wangyou hurried out of the room, told Lengyue to prepare ginger soup, and went to boil water with Lengfeng.

Ming Palace

Jun Yichen was dressed in white, holding a yellowed military book in his hand. The dim candlelight on the table stretched his shadow long.

On that handsome and gentle face, a pair of eyes full of stars looked at the book in his hand calmly, but he was reluctant to turn the page.

In front of him was Qingzhou kneeling with his head bowed. He lowered his eyes and it was hard to see the expression in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, I am guilty. I did not stay by your side today, putting you in danger. I deserve to die."

"I told you that you don't have to kneel. If you have anything to say, stand up and speak."

After hearing Qingzhou's words, Jun Yichen finally reacted. He put down the military book in his hand and looked at Qingzhou who was kneeling on the ground with his head bent: "Get up."

Qingzhou still knelt motionlessly, blaming himself: "Your Majesty, it is my duty to protect you, but I left my post tonight for personal reasons. Even when you were in danger, I did not show up to protect you. Qingzhou is guilty, please punish me."

"Private matter? Was it you who did what happened between Lao Wu and Yang Rongxin?"

Qingzhou lowered his head even lower: "Yes, Yang Rongyan is indebted to Qingyu, and she likes Jun Minhuai, but Yang Rongxin is blocking her way. As long as Yang Rongxin loses her virginity and marries Jun Minrong, then Jun Minrong and Jun Minhuai can still have a rift. His Royal Highness Prince Li said that this is called killing two birds with one stone, so I promised Yang Rongyan to help her accomplish this."

Jun Yichen nodded calmly: "Old Six knows what you did tonight?"

Qingzhou actually didn't want to involve Jun Zeyuan, but he couldn't persuade Jun Zeyuan, so he said, "Yes, Prince Li helped his subordinates to knock out Shen Jin, the personal guard beside Prince Jing."

Jun Yichen looked at Qingzhou's shoulder and continued, "Was the wound on your shoulder caused by the assassin maidservant next to Yang Rongxin?"

Qingzhou was stunned. He wanted to hide his wound, fearing that the prince would worry, but the prince was too smart, and he didn't expect that he couldn't hide it at all.

"Yes, she broke Qingyu's palm, and I broke her arm. I didn't kill her, which was a good thing for her."

Jun Yichen withdrew his gaze from Qingzhou and poured himself a cup of Tianshan Snow Lotus Tea.

"I understand. Get up and go find a doctor to treat your wound."
