In the palace, Jing Yu was furious when he heard Concubine Ji dare to call Jin Dou a little bitch. He kicked Concubine Ji to the ground and said coldly, "If you dare to yell again, I will cut off your tongue right now!"

Concubine Ji was kicked by Jing Yu, and her whole body was in great pain. It seemed that several ribs were broken. She didn't dare to say anything to Jindou for a while. She just cried and said to Emperor Wu Ren who was sitting at the top: "Your Majesty, I am pregnant with the Dragon Offspring. The Crown Prince treated me like this. You must help me!"

Emperor Wu Ren was sober for once. He looked at the golden bean, pointed at Concubine Ji and said, "Please diagnose Concubine Ji and find out if she is pregnant with the Dragonborn!"

"Your Majesty," Concubine Ji trembled and cried, "She is just a little palace maid. How could she diagnose me? I'm afraid she will make up stories and slander me!"

"How dare you!" Emperor Wu Ren, who was sitting at the head of the table, slammed the dragon table and roared, "She was the one who cured me. Stop talking nonsense!"

She cured him? Upon hearing what Emperor Wu Ren said, Concubine Ji and Zhao Tuo, who was kneeling on the ground, gnashed their teeth in hatred towards Jindou!

It turned out that it was this little bitch who ruined their good thing. Zhao Tuo and Concubine Ji both glared at Jindou at the same time, with fire in their eyes.

Emperor Wu Ren pointed at Concubine Ji and said to Jin Dou, "Go over and diagnose Concubine Ji. I want to know exactly how Concubine Ji is doing."

"Yes." Jindou bowed and walked towards Concubine Ji. But just when she was about to reach Concubine Ji, Zhao Tuo, who was kneeling next to Concubine Ji, suddenly stood up, drew his sword from the waist of the guard next to him, and stabbed at Jindou.

Jing Yu, who had been watching Jindou from the side, saw Zhao Tuo's actions. Without even thinking, he jumped up and came to Jindou's side. He raised his arm and used his arm to block the knife for Jindou.

The steel knife stabbed Jing Yu's arm, and blood gushed out immediately. For a moment, there was chaos in the palace. The guard standing next to Zhao Tuo immediately stepped forward and pressed Zhao Tuo to the ground.

Emperor Wu Ren also hurriedly stood up at the head of the table and shouted repeatedly: "Call the imperial physician, call the imperial physician quickly!"

At this time, Jindou did not dare to hesitate at all. He went up and rolled up Jing Yu's sleeves, and quickly pressed the acupuncture point above the wound with his finger to stop the bleeding. Then he looked at the deep knife wound and thought to himself: It seems that this needs two stitches.

******

In the room, although Jing Yu drank the anesthetic, the severe pain from the stitches still caused a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.

"Your Highness, why did you take the knife for me?" Jindou complained as he bandaged Jingyu, "Your arm was almost broken, did you know that?"

So what if an arm is broken? Jing Yu sat on the chair, staring at Jindou infatuatedly, and thought to himself: Even if I have to sacrifice my life, I will be willing to do it. Anyway, my life was given by Jindou.

But even though she was thinking this, she said half-truthfully, "If my arm is crippled, I'll just rely on you. From now on, you'll take care of my food, clothing, and daily life."

"That won't do," Jindou said after bandaging the wound and deciding to teach the prince a lesson.

"Your Highness," Jindou said, staring at Jingyu with sparkling eyes, "You must not be so impulsive in the future. If this knife had stabbed you today, you would probably have lost your life."

Looking at Jing Yu, Jin Dou said seriously, "Your Highness, I know you wanted to save me, but I am alone, and you are different. You are the crown prince, and you have a crown princess, so in the future, please don't do such stupid things."

Is this a stupid thing? Jing Yu shook his head. No matter how many times he had to do it again, he would still rush forward to block the knife like he did today, even if it meant sacrificing his own life.

He couldn't imagine how painful his heart would be if the knife he stabbed today had stabbed Jindou. If he lost Jindou, would he still have the courage to live?

"Your Highness, did you hear what I said?" Jindou was really angry when he saw Jingyu didn't say anything. It was true that he cherished his life, but he could not let the prince take the knife for him. If the prince got hurt in order to save him, wouldn't he become a sinner for all eternity?

Jindou looked at Jingyu and was about to have a good chat with him when he heard a eunuch outside announce: "The Crown Princess has arrived!"

Princess Jing'an was in the East Palace. When she heard the news of Jing Yu's injury, she was terrified. She hurried over all the way. When she entered the room, she saw Jing Yu sitting there well. Her heart finally settled down.

When Jindou saw Princess Jing'an coming, he didn't bother to teach Jingyu anymore. He clapped his hands and said, "Crown Princess, you've come at the right time. His Highness will be handed over to you."

Then, he turned to Jing Yu and said, "Your Highness, just rest assured and take good care of yourself. I will go to see the emperor now!" After saying that, he turned around and walked out the door.

The adulterous couple, Concubine Ji, not only called me a bitch today, but also wanted to take my life. This is really intolerable.

Let's go find the emperor now. We saved his life. If he doesn't give us justice today, then we'll just send him away! Jindou thought about this and walked quickly towards the door.

"Wait!" Jing Yu saw Jindou almost reached the door in a few steps, and he jumped up from the chair in a hurry. He accidentally pulled the wound on his arm, and he grimaced in pain and frowned.

Princess Jing'an hurriedly supported him from the side and whispered, "Your Highness, please be careful."

"Huh?" Jindou turned around puzzledly at the door.

"Wait, I'll go with you." Jing Yu was uneasy about letting Jin Dou go to face Concubine Ji and Zhao Tuo alone, so he quickly took a few steps to catch up with Jin Dou: "Let's go together."

"No need for you, Your Highness, you should take a rest." Jindou said, looking at Jingyu's injured arm. A lot of blood had been lost from this arm and the wound was particularly deep.

"No problem." Jing Yu said these two words and walked out of the house first.

In the room, Princess Jing'an stared at the backs of Jingyu and Jindou, lost in thought for a long time. She was the Crown Princess, but the Crown Prince hadn't spoken a word to her since she came in. Just now, out of worry about Jindou, she insisted on going with him despite her own injuries.

"Crown Princess, you'd better go back first," Yingxiang said from the side. Now, even she realized that the prince treated Jindou a little differently. The eunuch who had just gone to the East Palace to deliver the message also said that the prince had been stabbed in the back in order to protect Jindou.

"Let's go." Princess Jing'an nodded dejectedly and walked out of the door.
