Transmigrating into a female supporting role in a book

Unexpectedly, Doctor Sun asked me back, "How do you know that the place you were in before was your world? If you were mistakenly in another world before, and now you are just returning to reality, can you still tell whether it was a dream or awake?"

I was stunned by the question and almost fell into it. Just when I was about to have a good debate with him on the topic of reality and fantasy, I heard footsteps outside. A boy dressed as a medicine boy came in. After bowing to the two of us, he spoke to Doctor Sun, "The medicine has been boiled, but the maid Liu outside didn't let me bring it in. She said that the prince hasn't woken up yet and can't force it into his mouth..."

"What nanny? She's not a doctor, why is she worrying so much!" I couldn't help but interrupt.

The medicine boy looked up at me, then lowered his eyes and replied respectfully, "He was sent by Kunning Palace. He was ordered by the Empress to stay here to look after Your Highness. He had a quarrel with Imperial Physician Wang and drove him away."

"Why is this happening? They are deliberately not hoping for people to get better!" I stood up, feeling a little agitated.

Doctor Sun also stood up and reminded softly, "Princess, be careful with your words. This is not an ordinary place."

At this time, my maid Caiyin also came in, and from time to time she looked back at something outside.

"Princess, I have brought everything you requested."

"What happened outside? Why did you take so long?" The emperor asked me to look after the ninth prince Jiang Kang, and I thought it was impossible for me to stay by the bedside doing nothing for the whole day, so I asked Caiyin to get me some books.

Cai Yin felt a little aggrieved. "I was not delayed. I was stopped outside the courtyard gate when I came back. I explained to them for a long time. If it weren't for Guard Wan's help and showing your token, they would not let me in."

"Didn't you tell them that His Majesty asked me to take care of His Highness the Ninth in Qinglang Palace?"

"I did, but those people..." Cai Yin pursed her lips, glanced at the person next to her, and hesitated to speak.

"It doesn't matter. Just tell them the truth about what they said. Imperial Doctor Sun is someone I trust. Don't mind."

Cai Yin took a deep breath and whispered, "They said that Princess, you were originally a servant, and you are used to doing certain things, so there is no need to have other people come to the Ninth Prince to bother him..."

She was already very tactful. I guess those people in Kunning Palace must have said it more bluntly in front of Caiyin. The title of Princess Fuhui came too easily, and the emperor showed his love for me when I was in Luqing Palace. He often summoned me and rewarded me. It was not surprising that many people were jealous and wanted to pull this wild princess down.

I smiled gently and comforted Caiyin, "Okay, don't be angry. Since they know it is His Majesty's intention, there is nothing they can do about it. They can only embarrass us with small things. If you get angry, it will play into their hands."

"Princess, you are quite open-minded to think this way. I will go and check on the medicine first, so I won't accompany you." Doctor Sun said as he prepared to take the medicine boy out. Before leaving, he added, "If I am not here, no matter what others bring, don't rush to give it to Your Highness."

I nodded and agreed. Although I found it a little unbelievable, but when I recalled that someone had poisoned Situ Jue by making snacks for the concubine before in Zhenbei Palace, it seemed that nothing was impossible.

When the eunuch beside Jiang Kang hurriedly brought back the finished pillow I designed, I was helping Doctor Sun feed Jiang Kang medicine. So I spent another half a day asking them to make a triangular prism-shaped pillow to facilitate the work of feeding medicine later.

Because I was looking after Jiang Kang in Qinglang Palace, and Prince Duan's son Jiang Che was taken back to the palace and confined, their study partners did not enter the palace again. There were not many people in the class to begin with, and after a few people were missing, the teacher simply gave a few days off and assigned a lot of homework for everyone to complete.

Fortunately, Fu Rou and I were studying the elementary course, which only required us to practice calligraphy and copy books, and we didn’t need to write any articles.

Prince Yu also came to visit the patient, but he came at an unfortunate time because Doctor Sun was giving acupuncture to Jiang Kang inside. Each time it took more than an hour and no one else was allowed to disturb him. Only a medicine boy was left to help him wipe his sweat.

So Prince Yu put down the gift for visiting the patient and chatted with me outside for a few minutes, asking about Jiang Kang's condition.

I also pretended to casually ask him about things outside the palace, such as why the Prince of Zhenbei looked so sickly despite being so young, and why there was a general named He who was nicknamed Jade-faced Yama among the military commanders, but I had never seen him at the palace banquet.

Prince Yu explained Situ Jue's situation like this, "He has been weak since he was a child. He has to lie down for a few days if he catches a cold. He just lost his wife at the beginning of the year and his spirits are not very good. He has only started to go out of the palace recently." As for He Zhao's situation, it was even simpler. "He was transferred by his third brother to Xishan to eliminate banditry. He should be back soon."

I didn't react at first when I heard Prince Yu mention the "third brother". After thinking for a while, I realized that he was talking about Prince Duan.

Prince Duan was acting as the regent some time ago, and he had to review all the affairs of the court, so he transferred He Zhao to the capital. I don't know if it was intentional. Shouldn't the patrol camp be responsible for the defense of the capital? At worst, there is the Xishan Camp.

Seeing that I was lost in thought, Prince Yu smiled and said, "Why did you think of asking Fifth Brother about them? Could it be that the girl is in love and wants to get married?"

I originally thought that Prince Yu was not particular about trivial matters and would not spend any time on matters between men and women, so I asked him about it. Who knew that he would actually think about that aspect? I was embarrassed and just wanted to defend myself, but I heard him continue, "Those two people are not suitable. If you want to get married, don't worry. Fifth brother will find you a very good husband!"

There was no trace of teasing or mockery on his face, so I didn't know what to say, so I turned the topic to him, "What about you, Fifth Brother? Why haven't you gotten married yet? I heard that the Imperial Concubine is very anxious. Don't you like any of the noble ladies in the capital?"

He reached out and used his height advantage to press my head a little harder, "The time has not come yet. Sooner or later, you will be able to drink the wedding wine. Just prepare the gifts for your future sister-in-law first."

"So, Fifth Brother already has someone he likes?" I joked deliberately.

"It will happen." He smiled slyly.

Seeing that it was getting late, he looked back and saw that there was still no movement in the house, so he could only sigh, "I won't wait any longer, I will come to see Brother Kang another day. I'm sorry to trouble you, sister, and don't work too hard yourself, and order the palace servants to do more things. You are a princess now, and you should be spoiled by us brothers..."

He looked at me, and his eyes flickered while he spoke. I always felt as if he was trying to see someone else through me.

Not long after seeing Prince Yu off, I heard the sound of something being knocked over in the house.

"What's going on?" The noise was quite loud, so I rushed in to check it out.
