Throwing away useless thoughts, Linlang emptied out all the bottles and jars in her bag, quickly took out a pill and handed it to Rong Yan, "The knife is poisoned, this is the antidote, I can treat her after the poison is removed. I'll go get some water, you feed her the antidote, I'll be back soon."

"Thank you." Rong Yan took the pill, and his hands began to tremble uncontrollably. He quickly calmed himself and gave the medicine to Tang Mumu.

Helping Ji Chu to sit down, Song Jinyu hurriedly poured a glass of water into her hands. Seeing that she was still in shock, he comforted her: "Linlang is a very good doctor, and the prince is here. The little princess will be fine, don't worry."

Ji Chu finally raised his eyes to look at Song Jinyu, and he quickly added: "She was wearing a red dress today, and none of us noticed that she was injured at first. It's nothing, none of us wants our companions to get hurt."

Song Jinyu came close to Ji Chu, the two of them were almost touching each other, he raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, his voice unconsciously softer than before: "I know you are conflicted now, and I also know that in your heart the little princess has always been a very important friend and companion. Jiang Moqing who framed General Ji is not the little princess. She didn't say it because she didn't want to lose you as a friend."

Ji Chu grabbed Song Jinyu's arm tightly as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw, "Will she be okay?"

"With the prince and Linlang here, she will definitely be fine."

Ji Chu breathed a sigh of relief. She was indeed very conflicted. The moment Mu Mu told her the truth, she was resentful towards her, but the moment she vomited blood, she was genuinely worried about her.

"She can't be in trouble. I still have a lot to ask her."

Song Jinyu held Ji Chu's face with both hands and said seriously: "The little princess will be fine. She must have a lot to say to you."

Ji Chu's eyes lit up, then dimmed again, "I... I haven't figured out how to face her. I don't blame her, but I can't just pretend nothing happened."

Song Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief when Ji Chu was willing to say these words. She was finally willing to talk to him. Her appearance downstairs just now really scared him.

He quickly embraced her in his arms, stroking her back methodically, "I know, I know everything. Not only you can't face her, but the little princess also doesn't know how to face you. But you are friends, sisters with a good relationship. How sad it would be for you to stand on the opposite side of her, so Ah Chu, don't do anything that you will regret."

Ji Chu leaned on Song Jinyu's shoulder and thought about what he had said to her. If she and Tang Mumu really stood on opposite sides, she would probably regret it.

Someone knocked on the door, and Song Jinyu had to get up to open it. Standing outside the door was Rong Yan. He understood the other person's thoughts with just one glance. Song Jinyu turned sideways to let Rong Yan see Ji Chu, but did not say anything. It was Ji Chu who turned around and saw him himself.

Almost subconsciously, I stood up and walked towards him. When I got in front of him, I opened my mouth but didn't know what to say.

"The poison on the dagger has been removed. My second brother is boiling medicine. Linlang is guarding her now. She hasn't woken up yet, but she's fine now. Linlang said she'll wake up in half an hour. You should be the person she wants to see the most when she wakes up."

Rong Yan's voice was a little hoarse and he looked very tired. So many things happened overnight and he must have felt helpless.

Seeing that Rong Yan seemed to have something to say, Ji Chu hesitated for a moment and finally stepped aside. She was not an unreasonable person, and the affairs of the Ji Mansion had nothing to do with her.

Rong Yan looked at Song Jinyu again, and only stepped into the room after seeing him nod.

The three of them sat down at the table. No one spoke first. After drinking two glasses of water in succession, Ji Chu asked, "When did she know?"

"A few months ago, when Liu was abducted to the ghost market, Senior Su let the secret slip. Mu Mu also found out at that time. The next day, she went to your house to find you. In fact, she wanted to tell you the truth, but she didn't say it later."

"A lot of things happened after that. The longer time went by, the more Mu Mu dared not speak. She has always felt very guilty. You are very important to her. She...she doesn't know how to speak, let alone how to face you."

"I went to the dark prison with Linlang last night and learned some past events. Mumu deliberately stabbed herself in order to get the antidote for the centipede poison from Jiang Moqing. Jiang Moqing was about to die, but you were not there. Mumu regretted not telling you the truth in time. Linlang said that she could temporarily save Jiang Moqing's life, but she and you had to be present when Jiang Moqing died."

It was the first time that Rong Yan said so many words at once in front of others. He didn't have time to explain the reason in detail, so he could only give a brief account of what happened.

"Mu Mu has never thought of protecting Jiang Moqing. She knows all the evil deeds he has committed. Jiang Moqing is her master and the one who raised her. Mu Mu... feels bad about it."

Ji Chu lowered her head, tears falling one after another. Rong Yan wanted to speak, but seeing this, he had to swallow his words. He looked at Ji Chu with an apologetic face, and then looked at Song Jinyu with a pleading look.

The latter glared at him and simply drove him away, "Your princess is already injured like that, but you don't stay here and instead come here to spread rumors and confuse people. Believe it or not, I will throw you out of the window. Go away, you are just causing trouble for me."

Song Jinyu pushed people to the door. Ji Chu suddenly stood up, and the two people at the door looked at her at the same time.

"She is not the one who did something wrong. I will not be angry with her just because Jiang Moqing is her master. I only want Jiang Moqing's life."

As soon as she finished speaking, Linlang came out of Tang Mumu's room and walked straight towards Ji Chu and the others.

"She's awake, Ah Chu, and the person she wants to see most is you, but she doesn't want to see you."

After hearing the first half of Linlang's sentence, Rong Yan immediately raised his foot to go over, but after hearing the second half, he held back and stepped back. He turned his head to look at Ji Chu, with a hint of pleading in his eyes.

"I gonna go see."

Several people watched Ji Chu enter the room and did not look away until the door was closed.

"Thank you, Princess. I will always remember your kindness." Rong Yan bowed to Linlang. She detoxified and cured Mu Mu's injuries regardless of the past grudges, and temporarily spared Jiang Moqing's life just so that Ji Chu could kill his enemy. This woman was so righteous and worthy of his bow.

"No need to thank me. I just did what I thought I should do. She is not Jiang Moqing. I would rather she is a companion than an enemy."

She had seen what she did last night. Tang Mumu was clear about gratitude and grudges, and would put justice above her own family. She was the kind of person that Linlang was willing to make friends with.

"I'll go see how the medicine is cooking."

Watching Linlang walk away, Song Jinyu nodded sincerely and praised her generously, "Princess Linlang is truly an extraordinary woman."

Tang Mumu was lying with her back to the door. When she heard the door open, she thought it was Rong Yan, so she didn't turn around. Ji Chu walked lightly and stopped in front of the bed.

"I'm fine, you go back and get some sleep, I need to rest too."

Her voice was still a little weak, but it was clear that she must have cried after waking up.

After waiting for a while, the people in the room had not left yet. Tang Mumu turned around and saw that it was Ji Chu. She sat up straight, but the injury on her shoulder was pulled because of the excessive movement. She grimaced in pain and reached out to cover the wound.
