The cruel little princess

"Then let's go back and find a way to communicate with the prince again!" An Er said confidently. Most importantly, he had a strong premonition that the prince, who hadn't seen the princess for so long, would definitely rush to reunite with her regardless of his own safety.

The power of this emotion is unstoppable, but they also need to remain rational to protect everyone's safety. He has to find a way to get the prince and princess to meet and let the princess persuade the prince! Anyway, he can't control it...

Shen Youyou nodded slightly in agreement. In this difficult time, they must work closely together to deal with this crisis. Only in this way can they protect themselves and those around them and safeguard the peace of this land.

Shen Youyou and An Er were praying secretly in their hearts, hoping that the truth of this conspiracy could be uncovered as soon as possible and justice could be sought for the innocent people.

The five of them quietly restrained their breath and covered up the footprints they had just left, so as to prevent anyone from noticing that someone else had been here.

Although I know that Tongniu County is currently suffering from the ravages of a plague, and according to common sense, no one should risk coming here to investigate, I still have to be on the safe side. It's always better to be cautious!

When Shen Youyou and the other four people just walked to the foot of the mountain, before returning to their residence, they saw a guard galloping towards them in the distance.

As they got closer, they saw that it was Zhu Changqing, the leader of the Imperial Guard. He knelt down and reported to Shen Youyou, "Princess, His Royal Highness Prince Jin is waiting at the village entrance. Please come over!"

Shen Youyou suppressed the excitement and joy in her heart and replied softly, "I understand!"

She had been separated from Prince Jin for seven days, and it would be a lie to say she didn't miss him. Especially since they had been married for less than two weeks, and were in the midst of their love and inseparable relationship, yet they had to face this dangerous separation.

But she doesn't regret her decision at all!

Putting aside her status and position, she is a doctor and she can definitely take control of the overall situation in Tongniu County.

He was just a prince, but he knew nothing about the plague.

Besides, if these doctors could conquer the plague, they would have conquered it long ago. Why bother waiting for rescue?

So, professionals should do their professional work! She is good at medicine, so she will treat the plague. And he is good at leading troops, so he will mobilize the troops to fight outside!

But why were her steps getting slower and slower?! Perhaps she was a little afraid he'd lose his temper and blame her for drugging him... Despite Shen Youyou's repeated attempts to slow down, she finally reached the village entrance and met His Royal Highness Prince Jin, who had been waiting there long ago.

"What? After not seeing each other for so long, my beloved concubine doesn't even recognize me?" His Highness Prince Jin gritted his teeth. His gaze was like a torch, fixed on Shen Youyou, gleaming with anger and dissatisfaction. He was still furious that she had abandoned him and run away. In such a dangerous situation, it should have been him, her husband, who had rushed into battle to protect her!

Although her father had asked her to come, as long as he was around, she could only be a happy little woman behind him! He would protect her with his own life! But she just waved her hand and knocked him down with a drug! What's even more infuriating is: he didn't even know how he got hit!

Shen Youyou's heart tightened, and she quickly lowered her head, not daring to look him in the eye. She knew her behavior might make him angry, but she didn't regret her choice.

His Royal Highness Prince Jin's voice was icy: "I thought you would hide from me forever and not dare to meet me!"

Shen Youyou took a deep breath, raised her head, looked at him playfully, and said, "I'm not hiding from you. I just want to do what I should do."

His Royal Highness Prince Jin sneered deliberately, "What a good man! Now, explain to me why you drugged me? And why you abandoned me and came to this dangerous place alone! Is this what you meant by husband and wife being one, sharing weal and woe?"

Shen Youyou's expression changed. She bit her lip and whispered, "I had no choice. If I didn't do this, could you let me come alone?"

His Royal Highness Prince Jin replied coldly, "That's absolutely impossible! As your husband, I should be the one rushing to the front to protect you right now!"

Shen Youyou's heartbeat quickened, and she felt a faint joy wash over her. But she remained firm, saying, "I knew you would say that, which is why I left you and came here alone. I know medicine and can cure the plague! I just wanted to do something for the people." Her voice trailed off. "Besides, even if you came, you couldn't cure the plague! You'd make me worry about you!"

His Royal Highness Prince Jin was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Alright, since you insist so much, I won't pursue this matter any further. But you must promise me that you won't do something like this again, leaving me alone to wait while you face difficulties alone!"

Shen Youyou breathed a sigh of relief and quickly nodded in agreement. She knew that she had escaped this time.

The misunderstanding has been resolved, but His Royal Highness Prince Jin is a little annoyed.

He only remembered that he wanted to do something unspeakable to her at that time, but when he gently covered her lips, he only saw her shy and passionate eyes looking at him with a smile, and then... then he lost consciousness... It was so embarrassing to think about it!

At this moment, he just wanted to grab her, put her on his lap and spank her little butt! His Royal Highness Prince Jin thought so and did so! He stepped forward regardless of everything.

"Stop!" Shen Youyou shouted hurriedly.

"Stand there and don't move!" Shen Youyou's voice was serious and her tone was urgent.

"..." Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness Prince Jin stopped dead in his tracks. He stared at his little princess from a distance of more than thirty meters.

"Youyou, I haven't seen you for so many days, don't you miss me?" When His Royal Highness Prince Jin saw his beloved princess in front of him but he couldn't hug her, he immediately put on a pitiful expression.

"..." Shen Youyou's face immediately turned red. There are so many people here! What nonsense are you talking about!

An Er saw the opportunity. "Your Majesty, the princess is shy. She is too embarrassed to speak to you in front of the subordinates!"

Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness Prince Jin frowned slightly, "Someone come!"

"I'm here!" An Yi responded and stepped forward.

"Evacuate all irrelevant people! I want to tell the princess about the pain of separation!" His Royal Highness Prince Jin ordered without turning his head.

"Yes!" An Yi accepted the order and immediately withdrew all the yamen runners that County Magistrate Liu had placed here to guard.

"All of you should go back! Our prince and princess haven't seen each other for a long time and have a lot to talk about. We brothers will be able to guard this place."

"But County Magistrate Liu ordered us to keep watch over the village entrance. No one is allowed to enter but not leave!" said a man who seemed to be in charge among the yamen runners.

Oh my goodness! He remembered that this woman hadn't come to the village entrance for so many days since she entered. He didn't expect that she was actually the princess?! They didn't make any move to stop her at the time. Will the prince blame them now?! He added tremblingly, "We were blind at the time. We didn't realize it was the princess who had arrived, so we let her in..."

"It's okay. Now our prince has led his troops to surround Tongniu County tightly. You just need to go back! From now on, we brothers will guard it. We guarantee that not even a fly can fly out until the plague is cured!" An Yi boasted.

"But..." The bailiff still wanted to fight for it. After all, he was assigned by County Magistrate Liu and could not leave so easily.

"Swish!" An Nineteen received An Er's signal and immediately drew out his sword. He said coldly, "Anyone who disobeys my order will die!"

The yamen runners were all frightened and fell silent. They looked at each other, but no one dared to say anything. In the end, they could only take their leave helplessly.

His Royal Highness Prince Jin stepped forward, looked at Shen Youyou affectionately, and said gently: "Youyou, they say that a day without seeing each other feels like three years, we..."

"Don't go forward, I told you to stand there and don't move!" Shen Youyou shouted anxiously, her voice becoming a little hoarse with excitement, "It's very dangerous here!" She didn't want His Royal Highness Prince Jin to get close to this place full of plague and danger.

Seeing her furious look, His Royal Highness Prince Jin immediately stood still obediently, fearing that he would upset her again.

He coaxed gently, "Youyou, don't be angry, I won't move. I'll just chat with you here, okay?"

He gazed greedily at her beautiful face, from forehead to chin, from hair to toes, not missing any detail.

Suddenly, he said distressedly, "Youyou, you've lost a lot of weight!" Prince Jin complained aggrievedly, "Without me around to take care of you, look how thin you've become by starving yourself..."

Shen Youyou's face was filled with black lines, wondering how this person could be so unreasonable.
