Transmigrated into a vicious female supporting role, reborn as a hostage to the paranoid male protag

Su Yingxue, feeling guilty, silently touched his hot forehead and sighed softly.

She ordered Qiu Shuang to get a basin of cold water to wipe her face, while she sat beside the bed and took care of the unconscious ancestor.

"Oh, look at you, you are covered with wounds and have a bad burn." Su Yingxue sighed softly, put Chu Xingchen's hand into the quilt, and covered him with the quilt.

Until Qiu Shuang fetched some cold water, she soaked the handkerchief in the water, wrung it out, and gently applied it to her forehead to cool her down physically. After warming the handkerchief, she repeated the process several times. In this way, Su Yingxue silently cared for him for a long time.

Until Xia He walked into the side hall and reported, "Princess, Eunuch Shen is kneeling in the main hall with those guards and that palace maid. Princess, are you going there now?"

"Okay, Qiu Shuang, come with me to take a look." Upon hearing this, Su Yingxue took Qiu Shuang and walked towards the main hall.

When their footsteps became weaker, Chu Xingchen, who was originally sleeping on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes, which were as bright as stars, with a clear mind.

He sat up straight, looked at the ugly bandages on his body, frowned slightly, took the porcelain bottle of ointment beside the bed, opened it and sniffed it gently. It was indeed an excellent healing medicine.

He glanced at the empty bowl that originally contained the medicine, his eyes cold. When Su Yingxue fed him the first mouthful just now, he knew, being familiar with pharmacology, that it was an excellent medicine for reducing fever and treating colds.

Could it be that Su Yingxue, still obsessed with Chu Xingchen becoming his mistress, has changed her ways? She's switching from coercion and bribery to a gentler approach, hoping to influence him with care and love?

How is it possible? Chu Xingchen pondered this, his eyes cold and sharp as arrows. If the time was not ripe, and considering what she had done to him before, Chu Xingchen really wanted to tear her into pieces!

Did he think that calling the imperial physician for him, applying medicine to him, and offering him some small favors would make all the pain he had suffered go away? He was dreaming!

In the side hall, a dark figure appeared in the empty side hall, knelt down and kowtowed, "Your Highness, you have suffered!"

Zhaoying was Chu Xingchen's secret guard who had ambushed in the Qi Palace several years ago.

What happened the day before yesterday happened suddenly. When he was caught, he looked at his shadow in the dark and saw it clearly. Chu Xingchen gestured to him not to act rashly, so as not to ruin their previous deployment in the Dasheng Dynasty.

In fact, the current Chu Xingchen is no longer the hostage Chu Xingchen when he first arrived in Sheng Kingdom. With his current martial arts and skills, he can come and go freely, not to mention a mere internal supervisor, even the palace of the eldest princess.

But now, being a proton, a victim of bullying, is easier to hide. After all, who would care about the thoughts of those who are suppressed and humiliated as bullies?

The alliance between the Great Sheng Dynasty and the Great Qi Dynasty was already in jeopardy, and a war was inevitable. He was now the most successful spy in the Great Qi Dynasty. But what was so wrong with a little physical pain?

Once their plan was successfully completed, it would be time for Chu Xingchen and his secret guards to return triumphantly to the kingdom and reward their achievements. Chu Xingchen desired more than just the title of Third Prince. The better his hidden achievements, the higher his honor would be upon his return.

"You go, lurk in there carefully, and see what tricks the eldest princess is going to play..." Chu Xingchen thought of Su Yingxue's strange and abnormal behavior today, and was afraid that she might have evil intentions. To be cautious, he decided to keep a close eye on her, lest she ruin his plan in the near future.

"Recently, you should give the task at hand to Zhaoxue, and you should keep an eye on Su Yingxue all day long, and tell me everything she does every day, who she meets, and what she says." Chu Xingchen ordered in a cold voice.

"Yes." Zhaoying nodded and left.

······

The eldest princess's palace was brightly lit with candles.

Eunuch Shen, the yellow-robed palace maid, and several guards knelt in the palace. When Su Yingxue held Qiu Shuang's hand and walked into the main hall and sat on the high couch, the room was already full of people kneeling below.

"Good night, Her Royal Highness the Princess." When Eunuch Shen saw Su Yingxue enter the hall, he was the first to kneel down.

He knelt down with a smile, saying confidently, "Your Highness, I have brought the person that Her Highness the Princess requested. As for how the trial will be conducted, since Her Highness wants to do it herself, I will just assist from the side."

Eunuch Shen's words were extremely subtle. Everyone in the Dasheng Dynasty knew that Su Yingxue was the only fool in the entire Dasheng palace.

When Zhang Susu read the original novel, she felt that it was truly a miracle that the eldest princess could survive until the fall of the Great Sheng Dynasty.

The eldest princess was capricious, cruel, simple-minded, and vicious. She was good at whipping people with a red cowhide whip. No matter who it was, if they displeased her, she would whip them and do it herself.

But in this deep palace, she is indeed the most brainless one and is the easiest to be manipulated.

Moreover, if someone provoked her, she would get carried away and act as a pawn, her emotions showing through her face, and her mind was shallow. If it weren't for His Majesty's selfish protection, with her speed of causing trouble and attracting hatred, Su Yingxue would have no place in this deep palace.

Although it seemed that Eunuch Shen was considering her in every word he said, his smile was not to apologize, but because he knew clearly that if he threw this hot potato back to the princess, with her ability, she would not be able to solve the case and would not be able to get rid of the Internal Affairs Supervisor.

The case was handed over to the Princess. No matter what she found out, even if she got into trouble, His Majesty would cover her. It would have been easier for her to wade into the mess herself.

"Eunuch Shen, thank you for your concern." Su Yingxue was an elegant beauty, as beautiful as pearls and jade, with an air of royal elegance. If one only looked at the eldest princess's face, she was indeed beautiful. Even with her loosely tied bun and lightly made-up, she still exuded a natural elegance.

"Are you the one who saw Prince Chu push me into the lake with your own eyes?" Su Yingxue stood up, walked to the side of a yellow-dressed palace maid who was kneeling and shivering on the ground, and asked in a cold voice.

"The eldest... the eldest princess... Your Highness... Yes, it was this servant... I... I saw with my own eyes... Prince Chu... pushed you..." The palace maid had been working in the palace all the time, so how could she not know Su Yingxue's temper.

Rumor has it that Her Royal Highness, the Princess, was known for her mood swings and her whipping skills were exceptional, wielding it with ease. She was just a mere slave girl, so how could she not be afraid? At this moment, even her voice stuttered.

"If that's the case, then where did you see Prince Chu push me into the lake that day?" Su Yingxue asked coldly. Now that she had no memories of her past, she could only rely on the plots of the novels she had read and the words of others to deduce what had happened.
