The path behind the shadow of the long princess Jiaoman [Rebirth]

Light clouds slightly obscured the silver moonlight, and the palace road was endlessly deep.The mist came and went, hazy.

Two slender figures could be faintly seen walking on the palace road one after the other, not talking, but it perfectly complemented the silence in the deep palace.

A moment later.

The figure that suddenly appeared in Jing Lin Palace startled the gatekeepers. They wanted to use Emperor Ye's will to refuse the visit, but they became at a loss when they saw this familiar and beautiful face - this is Jing Lin. A frequent visitor to the Palace.

Lin Yunshu's voice was low and very calm: "I am going to see Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess."

The palace man hesitated for a while, but still said: "Your Majesty has ordered that His Highness should rest and rest, and no one can enter."

Lin Yunshu said softly, "Let Rong'er come out."

That was Liu Yue's personal maid, she remembered.

When Rong'er was invited out, she was no less surprised than the gatekeepers, and she, who was always decent, faltered and faltered: "Xi... Concubine Xi, why are you here so late... ...It was windy and foggy at night, and the servant ordered someone to carry a lamp for the empress, so I beg the empress to return home safely."

Lin Yunshu: "I'm going to see your master."

Rong'er: "Concubine Xi, His Highness's life is not in serious danger, you just need to rest."

Lin Yunshu's eyes darkened slightly: "I can't get in anyway, can I?"

Rong'er was stunned, recalling that the master's friendship with her was indeed...deep, not to mention, the master might not want to see her.

Forget it, maybe the master just wants to see her.Rong'er's intuition told herself.

"Concubine Xi, come in, just don't make too much noise."

Lin Yunshu turned her head back calmly, motioning for the woman behind to follow.

It wasn't until entering the hall that the woman took off the hat of the cloak, revealing her delicate face.

It's Sheng Yu.

Lin Yunshu said: "Miss Sheng, go and see the eldest princess."

She didn't believe in the Imperial Hospital, if under Emperor Ye's instigation "using the wrong" certain medicine, or if there was a mistake in the treatment technique, it would make things worse.

This is the best time to start.

Even if Emperor Ye would remember this "kindness" for a while, it would be difficult to remember it for a lifetime.

As long as Liu Yue is still in power.

For this reason, Lin Yunshu was worried about entrusting Liuyue's body to the Royal Hospital. Since Sheng Yu was also proficient in medical skills and had a good relationship with Liuyue, she could only ask her to come over.

Fortunately, Sheng Yu is also a straightforward person. When he received the commission, he came over without saying a word.

Half a moment later, Sheng Yu slowly stood up while kneeling beside Liuyue's bed, and said to Lin Yunshu, "Your Majesty, although the princess is seriously injured, everything is in normal condition, and nothing strange has been used. It's just that the servants are watching. , this Imperial Hospital is probably afraid of hurting Her Royal Highness with heavy hands, so the most warm and tonic medicines are used. If the foundation is good, then it’s okay, but it will take a long time for the current injury to be cured. .”

Lin Yunshu frowned slightly: "If you follow your method, can it be cured in advance?"

"To tell you the truth, my daughter-in-law is also uneasy, but if my mother believes it, my daughter-in-law is willing to give it a try."

"Okay." Lin Yunshu slowly approached the bed, and saw that the face on the sapphire pillow was so pale that it lost all color. At this moment, the eldest princess looked without anger, joy, coquettishness or carelessness. I feel very strange.

Lin Yunshu bent down subconsciously, wanting to lift off her jacket to see how the scars were. As soon as her tender white hands touched the shirt, she suddenly remembered that there was Sheng Yu next to her, so she let go of her hands and straightened up as if nothing had happened.

"It's better to stay in the palace tonight, let's go out first." Lin Yunshu turned around and said softly.

......

When Liu Yue woke up, Jing Lingong was restless again.

In the hustle and bustle, Liu Yue faintly heard——

"Your Highness has been in a coma for six days, and now he has finally woken up, but this servant is worried."

"Quick, send someone to report to His Majesty."

"Thanks to the imperial hospital."

"The imperial hospital is really powerful, hurry up and send the reward."

......

Liu Yue tried her best to move her lips and said, "Don't make noise."

Rong'er immediately dismissed the gloomy palace servants, and left herself alone: ​​"Your Highness, what do you want to eat? The imperial doctor said that I only drink porridge every day. If I wake up, I have to feed, otherwise I don't have any strength left."

"How about His Majesty?"

"I still come to see His Highness every day, and rewarded many treasures to the princess' mansion in Beijing. Your Majesty is devoted, and the people below are also very dedicated."

"How are people talking about me?"

Rong'er said with a smile: "Everyone praises Her Highness the Eldest Princess for being affectionate. I heard that even storytellers in central Beijing are fond of talking about His Highness's actions."

As soon as Liu Yue changed her weak and sleepy look when she spoke, she spun a slightly smug smile on her face.

She was right.

He bet that Emperor Ye would try his best to treat him, and bet that he would not die.

It is a gamble on a good reputation.

Rong'er also smiled: "What would your Highness want to eat?"

"Chicken porridge."

"Good good."

"Wait," Liu Yue suddenly stretched out her hand to grab the maid's sleeve, "Are you still visiting me often these days?"

"Your Majesty originally ordered that no one should disturb His Highness' recuperation, but the Empress of Yihua Palace... wanted to come in so much, so the servant boldly let her go and asked her to visit His Highness a few times."

"Oh?" Liu Yue's eyes shone slightly.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, when Concubine Xi comes here, she only brings one attendant by her side at a time, so she won't make a show of it."

"Did she come just to look at me and then leave?"

"The servant didn't dare to look too much, just glanced at it occasionally, and found that the attendant didn't look like her grand maid, but rather... like a young lady from an aristocratic family, and seemed to have been to Jinglin Palace, so the servant Feel good."

Liu Yue thought for a moment, then chuckled lightly: "It's not all due to the imperial hospital."

"what?"

"Serve me with a bowl of porridge first, and then His Majesty should come. After His Majesty leaves, just say that I don't see anyone. After nightfall, let the person from Yihua Palace come."

"Yes."

It was rare for Jinglin Palace to be quiet after the night sky was dyed.

The incense is fragrant, and before Liuyue waits for someone, sleepiness surges up.

When he was about to fall asleep, a soft voice suddenly rang in his ears: "Let someone come, but I fell asleep first."

Liu Yue thought it was a dream and turned over.

Lin Yunshu frowned lightly.

She simply lowered her body and stretched out her hand to push the person on the couch.

"Bold." Liu Yue reprimanded lazily as if dreaming.

After a while—

Suddenly woke up.

She looked at Mei Jiao Niang who was standing beside the couch, and swallowed the anger that was awakened by herself in an instant.

Lin Yunshu took the lead: "Your Highness asked me to come."

"I know, it's not scolding, help me up first."

This person will only be obedient for a while when he is asleep.Lin Yunshu sighed lightly.

Liu Yue noticed Lin Yunshu's loss, and teased, "Why are you sighing? Are you still worried about this princess?"

Lin Yunshu ignored her and sat down on the couch, saying: "It's getting darker and the night is colder. It's not good for me to come here, but it seems that His Highness didn't come here for business."

Liu Yue raised her eyebrows slightly: "I heard that you often come to see me at night, it will be cold and annoying."

"The people around you really can't hide things."

"It's not that you want to harm me, so why cover up like this?"

"I..." Lin Yunshu was speechless.

Liu Yue deliberately teased her: "What are you? You usually seem to be eloquent, but it turns out that you can't stand me."

Lin Yunshu's beautiful eyes were sullen: "I wouldn't bother to come if I wasn't afraid that you would be killed."

Liu Yue slightly bent the corners of her lips, her eyes were warm and harmonious: "Yes, yes, you care about me."

"The princess really just asked me to tease me."

Liu Yue didn't hide it: "When I wake up, I always feel stuffy in my heart. After saying a few words like this, I feel at ease now."

"you--"

"Okay," Liu Yue smiled, "Remember to reward me with something for the girl from the Sheng family, it's not convenient for me to come forward."

Lin Yunshu hesitated, "You know everything?"

"I said it was a dream, do you believe me?"

"Make up nonsense again."

"Lin Yunshu, please speak well to this princess."

"His Highness is extremely intelligent."

"Yeah." Liu Yue smiled with satisfaction.

Lin Yunshu was silent for a moment, and gradually showed a demeanor that hesitated to speak.

Liu Yue said slowly: "With me, why are you trying to hide it?"

Lin Yunshu said softly, "Is it worth it?"

"Not to mention a good reputation, but for me, the king's guilt can keep me safe for a long time."

"and then?"

Liu Yue: "That way I will have time to slowly stabilize the power and make a good layout."

Lin Yunshu wrung her fingers and said, "Actually, as you know, the root cause lies in power."

Liu Yue froze, and her tone became complicated and unpredictable when she spoke: "You don't understand."

"I know I'm shallow, but His Highness refuses to say it. Is he disrespecting me?"

"Little girl, you are so difficult." Liu Yue had no choice but to say, "You are right, power is the source of fear, but if I relinquish power, I will really be alone. At that time, anyone can kill me, not just the king."

"Liu Yue," Lin Yunshu called her by name for the first time, "I still want to ask you, is it really worth the gamble with your life?"

"I have bet on a lot of things, including before the first emperor decided to be the crown prince, I bet that it would be Yao'er. If it was Yao'er, I had to prepare the countermeasures in advance. It turned out to be him. It was not in vain. It's all about scheming," Liu Yue paused, "If you don't go all out, you won't get anything, just like..."

Lin Yunshu: "Just like King Rui."

"Yeah, King Rui, even if he doesn't want to be a rich and idle person anymore, he still has to be one. He can't get rid of this fate until the moment he enters the imperial mausoleum. Do you know how much he has been ostracized, and now his foundation is very weak, don't you I don’t know, some princesses of past dynasties were married to appease their courtiers, and some were sent to be married, only someone like me has the right to say ‘no’ to those things.”
