Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace: Spring in the Palace

Jiang Yebin closed the door of the side hall of Yikun Palace, and as soon as he approached the bed, Suo Xin opened her eyes.

"惢心, do you have something to say to me?" Jiang Yubin forced a smile, trying his best to make惢心 feel less uncomfortable.

惢心 nodded and smiled at him gently, "Jiang Yubin, I missed you a lot during this dark time in the Ministry of Punishment."

After she finished speaking, the tears that had just stopped falling began to fall again.

Jiang Yubin's eyes have been red ever since he saw her covered in blood. When he heard such straightforward and passionate words, his nose felt sore and two lines of tears fell down.

He hurriedly held惢心's hand, no longer caring about the differences between men and women.

Suoxin had lost so much blood, but she still tried hard to hold her breath and talk to him. This was their last chance to talk.

Jiang Yubin took惢心's hand and put it against his face, letting her feel his body temperature. His tears washed away some of the blood stains on her hands.

Jiang Yubin used all his energy to smile as gently as possible, coaxing惢心 like a child, "惢心, I miss you too."

"I won't let you die. I absolutely won't let you die." Jiang Yebin only thought that惢心 was on her deathbed, and this moment was the last bit of tenderness he showed her.

He suddenly became panicked, crying and wiping his tears while rummaging through his medicine box.

His hands were shaking so much that he couldn't lift anything. Jiang Yubin hit his uncontrollable hands hard. Suo Xin quickly sat up, reached out to pull his arm, and called out softly, "Hey, what are you doing?"

Jiang Yubin watched her sit up, with a look of surprise on his face. He opened his mouth, and snot and tears flowed down his face, making him look terrible. "惢心, why did you sit up?"

Suo Xin smiled at him, "I know you definitely don't believe it, but I'm fine."

Jiang Yubin quickly wiped his face with his sleeve, and didn't care that the pattern on the sleeve rubbed his face and hurt.

He pulled up惢心's sleeve, and saw that under the clothes soaked in bright red was惢心's clean and traceless arm.

Jiang Yebi quickly put his hand on惢心's pulse. The pulse was steady and strong, indicating a healthy state.

He sniffed the red color on Ruoxin's hand again, and it didn't smell like blood.

"Really?" Jiang Yubin's face was filled with joy.

Suo Xin nodded and smiled sincerely, "Really, Concubine Ling took good care of me, and the maids didn't let me suffer any punishment."

Jiang Yubin suddenly hugged惢心 and rested his chin on her shoulder.

Suo Xin wore two layers of clothes. The inner layer was a closer fitting layer, and the outer layer was the clothes she would wear when entering the Ministry of Punishment to be punished.

She was wrapped tightly in two layers of clothes, but even so she could feel Jiang Yubin's tears hitting her shoulders. He sobbed and was unable to speak.

Suo Xin patted his back gently to comfort him, and thought about what happened this morning.

Eunuch Jinzhong came to the Ministry of Punishment last night and told her and the two maids that Suo Xin would be able to leave the Ministry of Punishment tomorrow, and asked them to make preparations in advance to avoid being too hasty and letting the cat out of the bag.

The nanny removed all the bedding from the iron bed early in the morning and tied up惢心 and placed her on the torture instrument.

They were worried that she was feeling uncomfortable, so one of them fed her buns while the other fanned her.

Suo Xin ate her breakfast half-sitting like this.

"Girl, you are about to go out, have you thought it through?" The nanny fanned her and tested Suo Xin's thoughts.

They thought that the matter was over, and the reward money that Concubine Ling gave them must have also included the cost of persuading Miss Suo Xin to surrender to Concubine Ling.

Although the Empress and Eunuch Jinzhong didn't say it, they understood.

So these days, the two maids took turns trying to persuade this stubborn boy to change his mind and show his pure loyalty to Concubine Ling, who is generous and kind.

Suo Xin gave the maids a bitter smile, nodded slightly, and said, "Mammy, please help me get some chicken blood or something to pour on my body so that I look tortured. I need people to see how miserable I am."

"Otherwise, I'm afraid it will also implicate the maids, and the emperor will blame you for not doing your job well."

Mammy nodded. "It's okay. We've already prepared it. We bought a new chicken two days ago and have been waiting for this moment."

The two men hurried out, and soon came back with a large basin, and said to Suo Xin, "This is it."

When Suo Xin took a look, she saw a basin of red liquid that smelled of rust.

Mammy sighed, "We don't know how to get rid of the smell of chicken blood, so we can only dilute it with some water, and then add the cinnabar they use to paint doors, so the color is similar. We also added some water from soaking iron plates, and the smell is about 70% similar to human blood."

"But it's okay as long as you don't smell it too closely." Another maid confirmed.

"However, the girl has no injuries. Although internal bleeding will come out of her mouth and nose, the imperial physician will know it at a glance and will be discovered." The nanny was a little surprised.

Suo Xin smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm sure."

The two maids nodded and smeared the red liquid on her clothes and hands.

After applying the medicine, I saw a miserable person sitting alone on the iron rack, with blood dripping from his sleeves along his wrists.

The nanny wet惢心's hair with water again, making her look very pitiful.

Suoxin stayed in this place for several days, without being able to see the sun. She was sad and didn't eat much, so her face became thinner and her lips were pale. She looked like a devastated person.

After making preparations for the performance, the nanny put the big basin away again, leaving no trace.

When Li Yu arrived, he saw a nanny standing beside him with a whip, and another one pointing at惢心's nose and forcing her to admit that Concubine Xian and the master had an affair.惢心, on the other hand, sat there without saying a word, covered in blood.

Li Yu was furious and hurriedly stopped the two maids from beating her. He shouted, "Stop beating her! The Emperor must let Miss Suo Xin go out of the Ministry of Punishment."

When the two maids heard this, they immediately turned around, nodded and bowed, smiling so hard that their eyes could not be seen, "Yes, Eunuch Li." Then they quickly untied the chains on惢心.

The speed of the action is jaw-dropping.

Li Yu looked down on these two ruthless maids who were destroying beautiful girls. He snorted coldly, then quickly asked the eunuch to carry the stretcher over so that he could quickly send惢心 back to Yikun Palace.

Two maids gently lifted up Suo Xin, carefully helped her onto the bed, and took a clean blanket and spread it on her.

A maid even reached out to tuck a corner of the blanket, fearing that she would get wet and catch a cold.

Li Yu glared at the two of them, and used a whisk to stop the person's hand that was approaching惢心, not allowing them to touch惢心.

He couldn't stand people who fawned on the powerful and flattered others. Then he quickly had Suo Xin carried away.

After the people left, one of the maids snorted coldly, "You look down on us. Don't let this eunuch Li fall into our hands one day."
