The whole family escaped from famine and accidentally occupied land

Mingzhou City.

Ming Palace.

King Ming was still frightened after experiencing the assassination attempt a few days ago.

If Princess Ming had not sacrificed herself to save him, the assassin would have succeeded that day.

After that day, the Ming Palace was heavily guarded.

There are guards on duty inside and outside the palace, especially in Princess Ming's courtyard, where there are more guards.

Princess Ming lay sickly on the bed, her face pale as a trace.

The head maid Lu Bai stayed by the side of Princess Qin of Ming Prince all the time and never left even at night.

On the day when Princess Ming blocked the knife, she was conscious at first, but then she fainted and lay in bed for five or six days.

He never woke up during this period, and Lu Bai did everything himself, including eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, and did not dare to let anyone else do it.

Lubai is the granddaughter of Nanny Wang, the foster nanny of Princess Ming, and has great respect in front of Princess Ming.

Princess Ming sometimes likes to beat and scold the maids to vent her anger. Because of her relationship with Nanny Wang, Lu Bai rarely becomes Princess Ming's punching bag.

Her grandmother, Nanny Wang, returned to the Qin family in the capital half a decade ago in order to find a well-educated teacher for the princess' children.

Before leaving, Nanny Wang specifically told her to go along with Princess Ming and reminded her not to get angry with the prince and to be considerate and gentle.

Their relationship has eased this year.

Unfortunately, when Bai Lingzhi moved into Lanyuan, their relationship reached a freezing point again.

When Princess Ming first heard that Bai Lingzhi had entered the palace that day, she did not take it seriously. It was not until she heard that the courtyard where this new woman lived was Lanyuan that Princess Ming was at a loss.

Lu Bai didn't know what Lanyuan meant to Princess Ming.

There were people entering the palace in the past, but Princess Ming did not react so strongly.

Those concubines are just toys in the eyes of the princess. If the prince gets tired of them, it doesn't matter if the princess just sells them.

This time, the prince just rushed into the Orchid Garden and slapped Bai Ling, but he was so upset that he wanted to confine the princess to house arrest for a month.

Even though the donation of grain outside caused such a big commotion this time, the princess would not go out.

Lu Bai's eyes darkened. She didn't take good care of the princess, and her grandmother would definitely be angry.

Ever since her grandmother, Nanny Wang, has been with the princess, the entire Wang family has benefited.

Last year, the princess gave them her brother's indenture contract. Lubai's brother is now a free man, and he will not be inferior to others no matter what he does in the future.

The entire Wang family is full of gratitude to the princess, otherwise it would not be Nanny Wang who went back to the Qin family in the capital this time.

Their family has received the princess's kindness, so naturally they have to repay her.

Nanny Wang, at her old age, had traveled a long way just to find a female teacher for the princess.

The Qin family's situation is not as good as it used to be, but a lean camel is still bigger than a horse, and they are several times better off than the families of high-ranking officials who came from commoner backgrounds.

The mistress of the Qin family is the princess' biological mother, but unfortunately she suffered a stroke last year and has been bedridden.

Princess Ming felt that she could not rely on her own mother, so she wrote a letter to Nanny Wang and asked her to take it to the head of the Qin family, who was Princess Ming's father.

The Qin family has a large population and complicated relationships, and Nanny Wang volunteered to go back because she was worried.

The head of the Qin family may not be able to notice the means used in the inner house. Nanny Wang is the eyes of Princess Ming. If it really comes to that, she can directly ask the head of the family for the decision.

Lu Bai sighed, "Princess, please don't get into trouble. Our family's future is counting on you."

She had been with the princess during the assassination attempt six days ago.

It was not Princess Ming's original intention to rush out to save people.

She noticed that someone pushed the princess over and that person wanted her to die.

Before the princess fell into a coma, she had also warned her to be careful.

This time, Lu Bai didn't dare to leave the room at all, for fear that someone would secretly harm the princess.

This matter cannot be told to the prince yet, otherwise the princess's knife will be in vain.

She would let the maid try anything the princess took before giving it to her.

Fortunately, there have been no problems in the past few days.

Lu Bai touched Princess Ming's hand and covered her with another quilt.

Now she was also worried, afraid that the princess would not wake up.

Another doctor in the palace said that it would be dangerous if he didn't wake up within seven days.

On the day Princess Ming was assassinated, the doctor who took her pulse treated her wounds and then claimed to be ill and could not go out that day.

Lu Bai noticed something strange at that time, but did not say anything.

She had no idea whether Princess Ming could survive.

Princess Ming, lying on the bed, had a pale face and chapped lips.

The brightness of the past is like fallen flowers, withering away quietly.

Lu Bai stood up, took a spoon, dipped it in water, and gently moistened Princess Ming's lips.

This time was different from the past, she carefully noticed the changes in Princess Ming.

Lu Bai shouted loudly outside, "The princess is awake, call the doctor quickly."

"Shut up!"

Princess Ming frowned, spoke in a hoarse voice, pinched her head with her right hand, and opened her eyes.

"How many days have passed since I was injured?"

She covered her chest with her hands and used all her strength to say these words.

Seeing this, Lu Bai quickly held Princess Ming's head on her elbow and said, "It's been six days. The doctor said that if she doesn't wake up tomorrow, she will die."

After Princess Ming woke up, Lu Bai felt more confident, "Thank God, you finally made it."

"Has the prince come over these few days?" Princess Ming drank two sips of water, and her throat felt better. "Didn't alarm the prince and the others?"

Speaking of King Ming, Lu Bai was a little embarrassed to speak, and could only evasively reply, "The news was blocked, the prince and the others didn't know."

Princess Ming glanced at Lu Bai with a displeased look on her face, "Why didn't the prince come? Is he staying with that little vixen in Lanyuan?"

Lu Bai shook her head vigorously, "No, I asked someone to keep an eye on the movements over there these days. Apart from the study, the prince has not stayed overnight at anyone else's place in the palace."

Princess Ming's expression eased a little, "That day someone pushed me out to block the knife, did you see it?"

Speaking of what happened that day, Princess Ming gritted her teeth and said, "I was pushed out to block the knife. Did you see it?"

Lu Bai nodded, "I saw it. A hand reached out from behind and pushed you. There was a red birthmark on the middle finger of that person's right hand."

"Let me lie down. My heart hurts a little and I feel dizzy."

Princess Ming was swaying a little while sitting, and she dared not hold on any longer.

"You lost a lot of blood, so you're dizzy and dazed. You'll be fine after a few days of rest."

Lu Bai's movements were quick and gentle, and Princess Ming did not feel any other discomfort.

"Have those people been caught?"

Princess Ming always felt that things were not simple and wanted to find the connection.

"No one was caught. Only a few idiots came to our door on their own initiative, claiming to be from Prince Li's Mansion. The assassin had nothing to do with them."

Lubai has spent a lot of money these days and has not missed any news from outside, so it's a good opportunity to tell Princess Ming about it.

She did not hide anything and told him what had happened in the past few days.

"Those grains are fake? It seems someone is interfering this time. Could it be the King of Yan?"

Princess Ming knew that Prince Ming had sent troops to Lingzhou some time ago, but returned empty-handed, and also made a mortal enemy with Prince Yan.

"I don't know yet. The people on Prince Li's side are accusing Prince Yan and refuse to admit that they were the ones who assassinated the prince."

It is impossible to find out if there is too much whiteness. These are all superficial information and it is impossible to tell whether they are true or false.

"The Prince of Yan is just sitting on the mountain and watching the fight between the two tigers. The Emperor won't be quiet either."

Princess Ming was brought up by the Qin family with all their strength since she was young, and her perspectives are different from other women.

"Why is there such a commotion outside?"

"The prince issued an order yesterday to check on the generals' residences in Mingzhou City."

Princess Ming was lying on the bed. After hearing this, she immediately understood the situation. "Your Highness suspects that someone is colluding with you from the inside and outside, so he came up with this idea. Is Your Highness in the study now?"

Princess Ming was a little angry because no one had come for such a long time.

"Princess, it's not that the prince doesn't want to come. He went to the Golden Flower Commander today. I heard that there is something going on over there."

Lu Bai knew what Princess Ming was thinking, and quickly explained to her so that she wouldn't get too emotional.

"Sister Lubai, Doctor Han is here."

After the little maid outside reported, the master and servant said no more.

Princess Ming took advantage of Doctor Han not coming in to instruct Lu Bai, "Secretly find out who pushed me that day, and then find a reason to deal with him. Don't let his family members go either."

"Yes, I must have a reason."

"Just say you will conduct a self-examination. What if there are people colluding with you from the inside? You can go to the prince with my token. He will support you."

Princess Ming had an idea, "Let the butler assist you later. Don't panic, I'm still here."

Doctor Han came in, followed by a female doctor, who examined Princess Ming's wound.

"The princess will be fine once she wakes up. Next we just need to take good care of her." Doctor Han left some medicines for external injuries and prescribed three internal medicines. He then put down the medicinal diet prescriptions and left in a hurry.

"..."

Lu Bai stood aside, not knowing what to say.

"Has the prince threatened these doctors before?" Princess Ming also looked much more relaxed.

"Yes." Lu Bai nodded helplessly, "Princess, my mother has returned from the farm. She will take care of you later."

"But, that person must be found for me. I hope he is not related to Lan Yuan, otherwise... don't blame me!"

Princess Ming turned her head with a gloomy look, staring in the direction of Lanyuan in a daze.
