Lin Zhiyu's eyelids moved.

Zhou Tingchen was completely unaware and continued: "...In the end, King Jin's conspiracy was exposed. Miss Lin had nowhere to go and was taken into the palace by the emperor, which created a good story."

After finishing the story, Zhou Tingchen touched Lin Zhiyu's cheek, from the tip of his nose to his neck little by little.

"Zhiyu, is this story good? If you don't like it, I'll ask them to write another version."

The person on the bed remained motionless.

Zhou Tingchen put down the book and walked outside Weiyang Palace.

In the courtyard, a large crowd of people were kneeling, including palace maids, imperial doctors, and a very familiar face.

"Lin Xiaolian, your master is still awake, do you have any other options?" Zhou Tingchen's cold voice sounded from Lin Xiaolian's head, causing her whole body to tremble.

She just felt that the emperor was crazy.

During this period of time, Lin Zhiyu couldn't take any medicine.

When a palace maid was giving medicine last night, she accidentally spilled the dark concoction on Lin Zhiyu's clothes. That night, she was beaten to death with a cane.

Lin Xiaolian still remembers that scene. The little palace maid was only as big as herself and held on to her trouser legs.

"Aunt Lian, please, save me! I didn't mean to do it. The county master doesn't want to drink it, so there's nothing I can do about it!"

Lin Xiaolian couldn't bear it and wanted to speak for her.

Zhou Tingchen said: "Pull it down."

That palace maid will never live again.

"If you return to the emperor, I might give it a try." After a moment, Lin Xiaolian said.

She knew that what Zhou Tingchen said last night was just to deter her. If Lin Zhiyu couldn't wake up, more innocent people would fall into hell.

But as Lin Zhiyu's confidant, she actually didn't want her to wake up.

The prince is in prison, his life or death is uncertain, and Qiao Xiu and others have also lost their trace. Zhou Tingchen came here after Lin Zhiyu.

Seeing her relax, Zhou Tingchen raised his chin, and someone brought a brand new bowl of decoction to Lin Xiaolian's hands.

Everyone knew that it was Lin Zhiyu who didn't want to wake up.

Lin Xiaolian thought for a while and then said: "I will talk to the princess about something personal, and no one else can follow me."

She was a little scared to say this herself, and she quietly looked at Zhou Tingchen's face through the gaps in her sight.

Zhou Tingchen didn't express too much: "Yes."

Lin Xiaolian then took the medicine and entered the room.

The person on the bed looked haggard. He had not eaten for three days and had lost a lot of weight.

The small section of white wrist exposed outside the quilt became more and more slender, as if it would snap with a slight exertion.

"Miss..." Lin Xiaolian's tone was a little choked.

As if he really heard Lin Xiaolian's voice, Lin Zhiyu's fingers moved slightly.

Lin Xiaolian added: "The prince's imprisonment seems to be a dead end, but I feel that there is no way out."

"Mama An sent someone to deliver the letter quietly. This slave is stupid. Although I don't know what the young lady was planning before, I think that is not a bad idea."

"It's better than now."

Lin Zhiyu still showed no sign of waking up.

Lin Xiaolian sighed, stopped talking, raised her hand and poured the medicine in her hand into the potted plant on the side.

Just as she was about to get up and go out, she heard a strange noise coming from the bed.

"Miss?" Lin Xiaolian turned around, walked a few steps quickly, and helped Lin Zhiyu up when she woke up. Lin Zhiyu rubbed his head, and after a while, he squeezed out one word from between his teeth: "Water."

Lin Xiaolian suddenly realized, but there was only completely cold tea on the table. After hesitating for a moment, she poured a small bowl.

But Lin Zhiyu seemed to be thirsty. Seeing Lin Xiaolian's slow and hesitant movements, he simply got off the bed with his bare feet, grabbed the water bottle, and drank it all.

Lin Xiaolian was shocked: "Miss! I'd better ask someone to bring a new pot."

"Goodbye." After waking up, Lin Zhiyu seemed to be more precious with words, "I don't want to see Zhou Tingchen."

Lin Zhiyu took a breath. He hadn't eaten for so long that it was difficult to speak.

If people outside knew she was awake, Zhou Tingchen would definitely come in and talk nonsense.

At least for now, Lin Zhiyu didn't want to see his triumphant face.

"This opportunity is rare. Next time you and I want to meet alone, it will be difficult." Lin Zhiyu got up too quickly and shuddered.

Lin Xiaolian nodded.

After this incident, she became much more stable, and was no longer the little maid who cried all day long.

"After the young lady fainted, the old lady also got news. She seems to be in poor health again."

Lin Xiaolian explained in detail what happened in the past three days.

Including those earth-shaking rumors in the capital.

"The prince is imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Justice. The prime minister also said that he is ill. The emperor is now planning to re-activate General Jiang. Mr. Chu has also received attention. However, some people say that he was General Jiang's adviser before. This time it is estimated that the Jiang family has another It’s time to become a single family.”

Lin Xiaolian finished in one breath, and did not dare to speak too grandly. She spoke quickly and urgently, and her voice was still low. It took Lin Zhiyu a lot of effort to remember all this information in her mind.

"How are things going in the palace?" Lin Zhiyu asked.

Lin Xiaolian thought for a while: "The Jiang sisters are more powerful than the Queen. It's strange that the Queen stays in Kunning Palace and doesn't say a word."

After a pause, he added: "Mother An seems to have been targeted by the emperor, so she doesn't dare to act rashly for the time being."

Lin Zhiyu thought for a while and said: "Xiaolian, after you go out, I probably won't be free. It's up to you to find a reason for Jiang Tongmiao to find a way to meet me in private."

She was still thinking about the last unspoken thing about Jiang Tongmiao, and her intuition told her that it was very important.

Even if Lin Zhiyu already knew what she said from Zhuang Xinlan, it didn't matter. She still wanted to find out what kind of person Mrs. Jiang and Qin Xiao were.

Before she could say more, Zhou Tingchen, who was waiting outside, couldn't sit still.

Seeing that Lin Xiaolian was still not coming out, he frowned and pushed the door open.

Lin Zhiyu's words stopped abruptly.

There was something wrong with the atmosphere in the room.

Lin Xiaolian said: "Your Majesty, Miss took the medicine and just woke up."

As soon as Zhou Tingchen raised his hand, Lin Xiaolian packed her things wisely and went out.

"Close the door."

Lin Xiaolian paused after hearing this and glanced at Lin Zhiyu worriedly. The latter noticed her gaze and gave her a reassuring look.

The imperial doctors waiting outside the room breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the medicine bowl in Lin Xiaolian's hand was empty, and when they heard that Lin Zhiyu woke up successfully.

In the past three days, as the top doctors in Qin State, they had been scolded countless times as trash.

If the giant Buddha inside doesn't open its eyes and speak, the emperor is probably planning to chop off one of them a day.

The atmosphere outside the house was relaxed, but the situation inside the house was tense.
