"Ahem, water...give me water..."
A weak coughing sound came from a remote dormitory in the palace. The young girl on the couch struggled and accidentally fell to the cold ground, and the torn quilt slipped from her body.
There were a few bloody cuts on her dry lips. She trembled and tried to get up, but found that she didn't have any strength.
She shouldn't have imagined that in this cold prison, the palace would only appear in front of her, a princess who was worse than a dog, when the palace servants brought overnight food.
The cold air penetrated into her mouth, nose and heart, causing her to quickly lose consciousness.
"Princess Jinrong, do you feel better?"
While she was groggy, a pleasant voice sounded in her ears. Princess Jinrong felt a warm soup flowing into her mouth, which quickly relieved her.
His vision gradually became clearer, and a quiet and beautiful face appeared in front of him.
If Xia Yunxian had not seen it with her own eyes, she would not have been able to imagine that there was a princess in such a miserable situation in Dongling Kingdom.
Princess Jinrong's biological mother made a mistake when she was young and was thrown into the cold palace. She lost her asylum and was not favored by the emperor. She has experienced all kinds of human kindness since she was a child.
She was never qualified to participate in the large and small feasts in the palace. The palace people thought that as long as they did not starve people to death, they would not be held accountable.
She was originally weak-tempered and did not have the courage to seek help from others, let alone seek justice in front of Emperor Dongling. She had lived humbly under such difficult conditions for these years.
"Am I dead?"
Jin Rong felt as if she had fallen into a dream. The soup was so delicious and tasted so unreal that she couldn't help but swallow it in large gulps, and soon the bottom of the bowl reached the bottom.
She must have died. Only after death could she have such delicious food to eat, and only then could someone talk to her so kindly.
"The princess has been infected with wind and cold. She needs to be treated carefully recently, and the frostbite on her body must not be careless. Why is there no one to serve here? The princess is so rich, we really shouldn't let them act so recklessly!"
Facing Xia Yunxian's indignation, Jin Rong realized that she had been saved.
She smiled bitterly and said, "Jinrong is a guilty person. They stay in this palace and will always be looked down upon. I am the one who dragged them down, so I can't blame them."
Some of the capable people went to serve in other palaces, and those who stayed could not help themselves.
They just treated her a little coldly and didn't dare to hit her. Jin Rong already felt very lucky.
Xia Yunxian looked at the girl in front of her with an expression of neither love nor resentment. It was indeed like the impression she had in her previous life. This Princess Jinrong was kind-hearted, but unfortunately her life was too miserable.
They are both princesses, and Yinghua is favored by thousands of people, but she can only be trapped in this cage alone, waiting to be arranged for the rest of her life.
Xia Yunxian looked around. The huge bedroom was empty, with no decent furnishings. Instead, the old bookshelves on the side were filled with various books.
"Princess likes to read?" Xia Yunxian flipped through a few books and found Juanxiu's handwriting on them. Princess Jinrong actually wrote down a lot of her own opinions on them.
"The years are empty, just passing the time. These books are not wanted by the imperial brothers and sisters."
She felt that she was very lucky to be able to pick up these books, otherwise she would not know how to spend her difficult days.
At this time, Xia Yunxian fell into thinking. She really didn't know that Princess Jinrong was so talented and learned. Soon, she made a decision.
"If the princess is given a chance, will she be willing to fight against fate?"
Fight?
Jin Rong on the couch was dumbfounded after hearing this. She, a canary who was also covered in bruises involuntarily, had the right to fight?
"Mr.
Isn't this the number one female doctor in Dongling, Xia Yunxian?
Jin Rong is very self-aware. In all the years of Tangling's history, there has only been one female doctor. What qualifications does he have to fight against fate like her?
"Don't you want to see the vast grasslands, clear streams, and ferocious mountain beasts with your own eyes, princess?"
Xia Yunxian smiled, with a calm and calm light flowing in her eyes. Even though Jin Rong did not have the courage to look at her at the moment, her words still fell into her heart like a seed, buried in the spiritual soil that longed for hope. .
People who have been closed in their hearts for a long time do not dare to open that window. As long as a little bit of that unreachable light comes in, they will be out of control.
Xia Yunxian felt her anxiety, and then walked up to the door, "This winter will be very cold, and the princess may not be able to survive it. Even so, maybe no one will remember the princess in the future."
Even if Princess Jinrong died in this cold palace, no one would sigh.
Her eyes flashed, and her heart was filled with sadness. She knew that Xia Yunxian was telling the truth.
In addition to being helpless, there was also a trace of unwillingness in my heart.
…
"Mother, why did Yujing let me go? They said you promised my father that you would let me go to Xiliang to get married?"
Princess Yinghua came out of prison and questioned Concubine Xue fiercely. Unexpectedly, there was a crash, and her mother-in-law, who had always been very tolerant to her, this time violently threw the tea cup in her hand to the ground!
"After causing such a big disaster, this is your last chance. If you don't agree to the marriage, your father will abandon you!"
Concubine Xue hates that iron cannot become steel. Does she think that she, a mother, is willing to push her daughter into a pit of fire?
The previous Eunuch Su died in Bai Yujing's hands after just one night, but how long can Princess Yinghua, with her delicate skin and tender flesh, last?
"No, it won't happen. Besides, Yu Jing didn't make things difficult for me at all. Concubine, there must be other ways..."
"How? Unless someone can take your place, stop dreaming!" Concubine Xue was not willing to give in, but this method was thought up by King Xian. She did not tell Yinghua that the road to marriage was long, and nothing that happened along the way would be unreasonable. possible.
Soon things will change in Beijing, and it will not be safe to stay in the palace.
If Yinghua had been informed of their plan in advance, with her temperament, she would only make people suspicious if she was neither noisy nor fearful.
During this period of time, she could throw herself as much as she wanted. Anyway, the palace people were used to it.
replace?
Princess Yinghua seemed to have thought of something, turned around, picked up her skirt and rushed out the door.
Soon, the sound of cramped footsteps reached Jin Rong's ears, which made her come back to her senses after being in a daze for a long time. She saw Yinghua standing there at some point, looking at her with a haughty expression.
"Sister Huang, Sister Huang is here to see you!"
…
In the Imperial Hospital, a young palace maid came to Xia Yunxian tremblingly. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "Doctor Xia, go and see Princess Jinrong quickly. She is about to be beaten to death!"
