Accidentally dressed as an empress

Chapter 90 Breaking out of the cocoon

Zhou Jing walked out of the palace and headed straight for the post house in the west of the city. The female guard of Yun State was on duty at the door of the post house.

Zhou Jing explained the purpose of his visit and the guard went in to pass on the message.

Standing outside the inn, Zhou Jing recalled what the Grand Prince had whispered in her ear at the clinic, "Do you remember the story of two peaches killing three warriors? You have to be the peach that everyone fights over."

From that moment on, she was completely awakened.

She was just a slave girl in the State of Chu. With her medical skills, she gained a little favor from Gongzi Jin. But affection and love were just self-deception.

Zhou Jing, ah Zhou Jing, this is no longer the Yun Kingdom. Isn't this just flattery? Learn the flattery tricks of those female slaves and be like them.

Beauty and medical skills are both your strengths, and you must learn to make good use of your strengths.

The door of the post station opened, and the prince came over to greet her and said, "You're out so soon."

Zhou Jing looked at the prince and a relieved smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Her eyes were determined, sweeping away the previous gloom and decadence. Yunxiu looked at Zhou Jing, who had emerged from her cocoon and was reborn, and smiled, "Come in and talk."

Zhou Jing followed the prince into the main house.

The Grand Prince pulled out a scroll of bamboo slips from the table and handed it to her with both hands. "This is the Book of Poisonous Herbs for you. A doctor should not only save the world but also protect himself. From now on, no one will dare to mess with you again."

Zhou Jing's eyes flickered slightly, and she was a little surprised. This book had been lost, and there were only fragments in her home. Her mother also didn't allow her to read it.

Yunxiu approached, patted her shoulder, and whispered, "He is sick, and you can cure him, but he needs your help. You don't act like you're asking for help, so you poisoned him. He deserves it."

"Your Highness, I remember this," Zhou Jing knelt on one knee, "Thank you for your grace in giving me a new life."

Yunxiu helped Zhou Jing up.

Yunxiu thought to the system, "Is Zhou Jing's SSR rank now guaranteed?"

The system replied, [Absolutely, completely devoted to the host.]

Yunxiu shouted outside, "Su Da and Su Er!"

As Su Da and Su Er walked into the house, Yun Xiu said to them, "Look among the guards and see if there is anyone who looks like Miss Zhou. Put on her clothes and go to the ferry to take a boat."

Yunxiu held Zhou Jing's hands and comforted her, "Stay with me, no one will dare to touch you."

Su Er said to Zhou Jing, "Miss Zhou, please."

Zhou Jing followed Su Er to the next room to change clothes.

Zhou Jing took off her slave girl's dress and put on a robe. She felt a little uncomfortable for a moment.

After opening the door, she saw two female guards standing at the door. Zhou Jing handed her dress to them with both hands, a little worried, "Sister guard, is there any danger?"

Su Jiu took a step forward. She was about the same size as Zhou Jing. She took the clothes and said, "Don't worry, I can get out."

Yunxiu returned to the dormitory. Zhong Yi was not in the room, and Su Shiyi was also nowhere to be seen. Su Da said that Zhong Fu Shi had gone out to the Chu State blacksmith shop to observe and learn.

Zhong Yi happened to return and immediately rushed over to hug Yun Xiu, very excited. "Your Highness, I saw the weapons of the Chu State. They are so diverse and dazzling. There are hammers weighing hundreds of pounds, iron spears, iron chains, and even steel wires as thin as a hair!"

Zhong Yi, like an enthusiastic puppy, buried his head in her shoulder and rubbed it, begging her, "Your Highness, you can speak Chu dialect. Can you buy them all for me?"

"Okay, okay, whatever you like, let's go buy it now."

The system was speechless. [The host is too easy to deal with.]

Yunxiu heard the system's complaints and just laughed it off.

Zhong Yi's interests were beneficial to the development of Yun Nation's weapons. She would fulfill his wishes, both publicly and privately.

.......................................

In the palace, Wu Huan and his men disposed of Wu Yang's body. Of the four eunuchs accompanying the young master, Wu Ji's position was frequently replaced. Wu Yang had been with the young master for six years, and unexpectedly, he was also replaced this time. He and Wu Bing were the only ones who had served the young master the longest.

Someone from the organization came to report to him that the young master's new favorite, Miss Zhou, had gone to the post station and then hurried to the ferry. Strangely, the young master did not ask them to stop her, so he could only hold his ground.

When Xiong Jin woke up, it was already dark.

His head felt a little dizzy, so he sat up and glanced to his side, but there was no one there.

Looking down, he saw some drug powder still on his collar. A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. He asked why he had slept for so long. It turned out that he had been drugged.

This Zhou Jing must have run away! Xiong Jin clenched his fist and pounded the bed. Damn it! She thinks about running away every day.

"Wuyang!" Xiong Jin shouted. A young eunuch with an unfamiliar face came in. He then remembered that Wuyang had been killed by him. Xiong Jin frowned and said, "Call Wuhuan!"

The young eunuch crawled out tumbling.

Xiong Jin calmed down his anger and said, "Someone, help me change my clothes."

In Miss Zhou's room, a group of young eunuchs came in and helped him dress. Xiong Jin opened his arms, and Wuhuan also walked into the room at this time.

Xiong Jin looked at him, his brows and eyes as gloomy as the night. Wu Huan knelt down and said, "Sir."

"Where did she go?" Xiong Jin asked.

Wu Huan lowered his head, "Miss Zhou took the ferry to Yun Country. The young master did not give any orders..."

Xiong Jin picked up the jade bottle and threw it at him, "You useless bastard! Didn't you know how to stop her without my order?"

"This subordinate is guilty!"

"Go get your fifteen sticks yourself."

Wu Huan said, "Sir, since she has already left the prescription, it is useless. After all, she is from Yun Country. If she stays with you, I am afraid she has ulterior motives."

"Shut up! Fifteen strokes seems too light. Go get thirty strokes." Xiong Jin said, "What are you still standing there for? Get out!"

Xiong Jin opened the wardrobe in the room and saw the light green dress and hairband of the same color that Zhou Jing had placed in the wardrobe. She didn't take anything away.

He picked up the hairband as if possessed by a demon, put it to his nose and sniffed it, as if he could still smell the refreshing herbal fragrance.

He slowly wrapped the hair tie around his hands.

With a bang, Xiong Jin slammed the cabinet door shut, shutting out those inappropriate thoughts.

Just a woman, but a little gentler, smarter, and more stubborn. Could it be that he couldn't let her go?

What he couldn't let go of was not her beauty and figure, or her extremely poor bed skills, but her medical skills.

As soon as she got off the boat in Xiangcheng, he asked the spies to kidnap her again.

Humph, she can never leave him.
