After becoming a concubine, she lived a miserable life every day.

If these things had not happened before, Prince Rui would have only found Chen, who was so shy and pretending to be calm, interesting and cute, or even heart-moving. But today he did not have such emotion, and even wondered if Chen was pretending to be like this.

Although the incident of pushing An into the water was insignificant to Prince Rui, Chen's image suddenly collapsed in his mind.

It turns out that she is not as indifferent and needy as she appears to be. She is not that naive either. She can also use her claws and the same methods as those women in the backyard. She just never shows it in front of him.

Prince Rui knew in his heart that this was human nature. After all, in the backyard, if you are weak, you will be bullied. You need to have some tricks and be ruthless to protect yourself. Although Prince Rui knew it, his feelings towards Chen had indeed changed. After all, in his opinion, Chen seemed to be no different from the women in the backyard. They were all the same. Since they were the same, the attraction was naturally not that strong.

However, he still liked her, and he couldn't really ignore her. Moreover, that method of saving people was indeed amazing. He wanted to know how Chen knew this method.

After thinking for a moment, King Rui spoke.

"Well, both parties are at fault for today's incident. An..."

Begonia Courtyard.

After waking up from a nap, Qiao Rongjin heard the conversation between Qinyun and Qinglian outside the door.

"Really, Sister Qinglian, what did Master Chen do... CPR! Yes, Master Chen later said that the method of saving people is called CPR. Master Chen successfully saved Master An by using CPR. Everyone at the scene was shocked. It was only one afternoon, but the news had already spread. Master Chen has now become a celebrity in the palace. But in the end, both of them were punished. Master An and Master Chen were each fined three months of monthly salary, and Master Chen was grounded for three months. However, the skill that Master Chen showed was really amazing..."

After hearing this, Qiao Rongjin raised his eyebrows. This was all expected. How could the hero be willing to punish the heroine? This confinement and monthly punishment had no effect on the heroine at all.

However, the heroine actually used CPR in front of so many people. Wasn't she afraid of being suspected? This method had never been used in the Great Jing Kingdom, or even in the whole world. You are a woman, not a medical student, and you actually know how to do this. Isn't this definitely suspicious?

Maybe he would be mistaken for a monster. The ancients were not stupid! It was not something that could be dealt with just for any reason, especially King Rui. He was the next emperor of the Great Jing Kingdom. Needless to say, he was deep-minded. It was hard to say how he would deal with something out of control.

However, Qiao Rongjin immediately thought that this was a love novel centered around a heroine and a hero. Considering how much the hero cared about the heroine, her previous assumptions should not be possible... right?

However, this incident also reminded Qiao Rongjin once again to keep her mask well. No matter who she is with, no matter how close the relationship is, she must not reveal the fact that she is a book lover. Also, anything about the modern world that is incompatible with the ancient times should not appear. Otherwise, she will not have the halo of the heroine, and she will die, but no one will save her at the critical moment.

The heroine must be even more careful. Both of them came from modern times, and the chances of being discovered are greatly increased. If they can avoid meeting, then do so. If they really meet, it is best not to have too much interaction. Always remember that the most important thing is to stay alive!

The original owner had offended the heroine before, but after paying his respects to the princess last time, judging from Chen's reaction, she would not attack her again. After all, the original owner had gotten her retribution, not only was her position demoted, but she was also hated by King Rui, so Qiao Rongjin felt that the two would basically have no interactions in the future.

As for those high-end things like soap, cement, glass, gunpowder, etc., she doesn't know how to make them at all. After all, as an actor, apart from running around the crew to make money, she spends the rest of her time improving her skills. Where would she find the time to read those useless knowledge? Besides, who would have time to read those things?

However, the heroine is different. After all, she is the protagonist. In the book, the heroine is a kindergarten teacher, but in her daily life she likes to watch these production videos the most, and then she will do experiments. She also has a good memory. She is worthy of being the author's daughter. Everything has been prepared for the heroine before she traveled through time.

But it’s also good this way. She remembered that the heroine later invented soap, glass, and even papermaking. Thinking of this, Qiao Rongjin’s mood improved. It seems that in the near future, she will be able to use paper. This is great!

Suddenly I felt like I was traveling through a book. It seems like having a good female lead, and the living standard is improving day by day!

After hearing the gossip, Qinglian turned around and saw his master standing behind him with a thoughtful look on his face. He immediately stood up.

Seeing Qinglian's reaction, Qinyun also stood up immediately.

"Master, you are up." Qinglian was a little annoyed. She actually listened to gossip and forgot the time when her master woke up from his nap. This was really wrong! If she were under another master, she would probably be beaten.

Qiao Rongjin was originally deep in thought, and Qinglian's sudden shout startled her. She looked at Qinglian unhappily and said, "Why are you shouting so loudly? I'm not deaf."

Qinglian was embarrassed.

Seeing this, Qinyun hurriedly said, "Master, I'm going to help Hongdou sweep the floor!" After that, she hurried away.

Qiao Rongjin: Am I a monster? Why am I running so fast?

In the evening, Luoyanju.

Chen's residence.

Prince Rui stepped into the gate of Luoyan Residence. The maid guarding the door bowed respectfully and was about to inform her master when she was stopped by Prince Rui.

At this moment, Chen was having dinner with her son. The two of them picked up food for each other. It was a happy sight to see the loving mother and filial son.

Seeing Prince Rui come in without saying a word, Chen was already used to it, so she walked up to him, took off his cloak and put it aside with her movements being skillful and gentle.

When King Rui saw this, his heart couldn't help but soften.

"Father, you are here! Come and have dinner!" Qi Zhao also stood up and ran towards King Rui, hugged King Rui's thigh, and then looked up at him with admiration.

Prince Rui reached out and stroked Qi Zhao's head, his eyes full of a fatherly smile, and said with a smile, "Let's go and eat."

The maidservants below had already cleverly brought up the dishes and chopsticks that had been prepared in advance, because the master came back today and said that the prince would most likely come to Luoyanju today.

I didn't expect that what the master said was so accurate. Although the master was punished by the prince to be confined to the palace and given a monthly salary today, the prince's heart is still with the master. All the maids are happy. After all, their master has not fallen out of favor. As maids, they have also risen in status in this palace. No one dares to provoke them when they go out. From time to time, they will receive rewards from the prince. The benefits are much better than those in other courtyards.

The three of them had a rare quiet meal today, which was very different from the past.

Qi Zhao was a smart guy. Thinking about what he heard on the way back, he knew that his father and mother had something to say, so he quickly ate a bowl of rice and made an excuse to go out and play.

Chen also sent the maids out of the house, so in an instant, only Chen and Prince Rui were left in the main hall.

Chen was a little nervous. It was the first time that Prince Rui acted like this. He didn't say anything and didn't even look at her.

When Prince Rui saw Chen's expression, his heart softened. He went over and held her in his arms for a while before he said solemnly, "Do you know what mistake you made today?"

Hearing this, Chen bit her lip and said softly, "I shouldn't have pushed An into the water."

We should teach her a lesson in a different way!

If it weren't for An, how could she be grounded and punished? Although these were trivial matters and not worth mentioning, Chen had never been punished since she came here? Today, she was punished by King Rui for the first time in history. I don't know how long she will be laughed at by the women in the backyard in the future?

Just as I was thinking about this, I heard the deep voice of King Rui above me, "You really shouldn't have pushed An into this."

Chen was a little stunned when she heard this. What did the prince mean by this? Was he blaming her for pushing An?

Without waiting for her to think, Prince Rui continued, "This is an unwise choice. She is really annoying. You can teach her a lesson in another way, but you must not cause any death. If you hadn't had the inspiration to use that trick to save An today, An would have died long ago. However, there are times when the means of saving people fail. It's not always possible to save people by chance. In this way, even if I want to protect you, I have to consider the princess and other concubines in the backyard. Next time if you have any problems, come to me and I will make the decision for you. There's no need for you to do it yourself."

Hearing this, Chen's expression eased a lot, and the prince still stood on her side.

Chen hugged Prince Rui's waist tightly, buried her head in his chest, and said weakly, "Yes, I know I was wrong."

After Chen knew An's purpose, she thought that An was so arrogant because she had a maid who could swim, so she pushed people down without hesitation. Little did she know that the maid could only swim but was not skilled and could not save people at all. If she had not asked someone to go down and save her at the critical moment and used cardiopulmonary resuscitation, An might have really died. She really did not expect this.

King Rui sighed, then asked casually, "Ayun, where did you learn your miraculous method of saving lives... um... cardiopulmonary resuscitation?"
