The Cold-Hearted Princess Who Transmigrated Here

An Yi felt a sudden urge to stand up, but in that instant, she realized that she was not on flat ground but inside a narrow carriage.

However, it was all too late. With a muffled thud, her head slammed solidly against the roof of the car, and a sharp pain shot through her, causing her to gasp in shock.

At the same time, Li Kongchen, who was driving the carriage, heard strange noises coming from inside the carriage and quickly pulled it to the side of the road.

He rushed into the carriage in a great hurry and immediately saw An Yi clutching her head, her face contorted in pain. He quickly went over, grabbed her shoulders, and helped her sit up. He then took out the ointment from his pocket and applied it to her swollen and painful areas, gently massaging her skin with his fingers to help the medicine absorb.

After An Yi calmed down a bit, Li Kongchen took a deep breath and began to patiently persuade her: "An Yi, calm down and listen to me. I have already sent many people to help search for our daughter in Xiyue Kingdom."

"You can go in person if you want, but not now. You need to get your body back in good shape first. Even if you can't fully recover, you need to recover at least half."

An Yi was focused on finding her daughter as soon as possible; every moment of delay was torture for her. Therefore, she had no intention of waiting and calmly retorted without hesitation, "I know my own physical condition; it's not that bad right now."

Seeing An Yi's stubbornness, Li Kongchen became increasingly anxious. He simply opened his arms and hugged her tightly, saying in an almost pleading tone, "An Yi, I'm begging you, okay? Please listen to me this time, okay?"

Then, Li Kongchen raised his voice and continued to persuade her, "Even if you don't care about my feelings, don't you at least consider our daughter?"

"Given your current physical condition, if you continue to forcibly delay treatment like this, your body will completely collapse in six months at most!"

"By then, even if you finally find your daughter after going through countless hardships, she will have to face the cruel reality of losing her mother. Do you think she can bear it?"

"Can you really bear to see your precious daughter without her mother's company? Haven't you ever dreamed of witnessing your daughter's marriage and the birth of her children? Haven't you ever imagined the wonderful scene of enjoying the joys of family life with me while playing with our grandchildren?"

“An Yi, we have missed more than twenty springs and autumns. Now, thanks to God’s blessing, I have finally found you in the vast sea of ​​people.”

"Please, I beg you, don't let me lose you again so soon after we've just reunited, okay?"

Li Kongchen's voice was filled with endless sorrow; the hope in his heart was like a candle flickering in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment.

"We're getting old, and we don't have much time left. Can you give me a little more time so that I can do everything I can to make up for the hurt and debts I've caused you and our daughter?"

His bloodshot eyes were fixed on An Yi, revealing deep regret and longing in their depths.

An Yi looked up at him with his full head of silver hair, met his eyes, and was overwhelmed with mixed feelings. She knew all too well that her health condition was in terrible shape.

Knowing this, she was eager to find her daughter as soon as possible. To this end, she even sacrificed her already limited rest time, traversing mountains and valleys and searching through streets and alleys.

However, fate always seems to like to play tricks on people; the more eagerly she pursued it, the more her body deteriorated.

This is a knot that she can never untie, with no one to help her.

If she continues to search despite the pain and her own safety, she will likely die within a few months.

She constantly thinks of her lover and misses the warm memories they once shared. She is grateful that, after so many years, they still have enough reason to accompany each other and walk hand in hand through the days to come.

She couldn't wait to tell her daughter, "Your dad and mom have come to take you home."

If she insists on going to find her daughter herself regardless of everything, it will inevitably worsen her internal injuries, and she has no way of guaranteeing how long she can live.

However, if she couldn't keep searching for her daughter, she was constantly worried, fearing that her daughter was silently suffering in some unknown corner.

In this dilemma, the defenses I had built up in my heart gradually crumbled, and the sadness that had been building up for years and the vulnerability hidden deep within me instantly turned into salty and bitter tears that poured out of my eyes.

At first, she suppressed her sobs, but gradually, the pain intensified with each tear, until finally she could only let herself bury her face in the warm embrace before her and cry out loud.

“I’m so scared! I’m scared that you’ll hate me for the rest of your life, that you’ll hate me for betraying you, even though I didn’t do anything wrong.”

"Since you left, I've been facing everything alone. At that moment, I felt like everyone had abandoned me, and I couldn't find anyone to rely on."

"What frightened me even more was that the terrifying group of assassins also appeared. They were like a pack of wild beasts, and you could be torn to shreds if you weren't careful."

"Fortunately, you have left me with a glimmer of hope, which is our precious daughter. However, this good fortune is accompanied by even greater worries."

“I’m afraid I won’t be able to take good care of her. Many people in my tribe blame this disaster on my selfishness, accusing me of bringing in outsiders who caused this series of misfortunes. No one can protect my daughter and me; I’m all alone.”

"But just when I thought I had done everything I could to protect my daughter, she inexplicably went missing. From that day on, I was afraid to sleep because every night when I fell asleep, my dreams were filled with terrible things."

“I always dream that my daughter is in danger, crying out for her mother helplessly, and I can only watch helplessly. This pain and fear makes it difficult for me to fall asleep. My only thought is to find her as soon as possible and make sure she is safe.”

"But I've been searching and searching, day after day... month after month... year after year, and now almost five years have passed and I still can't find her."

"Many times, I've thought about jumping off a cliff..."

"I'm afraid of being alone... I'm also afraid of living..."

"I miss my daughter so much..."

"I miss you too..."

Seeing his wife crying so sadly, Li Kongchen couldn't help but shed tears as well. He silently moved his body and adjusted his posture so that she could lean on him more comfortably and securely.

For Li Kongchen, a sense of peace welled up in his heart at this moment. At least, his wife was no longer pretending to be strong. She was willing to reveal her true self in front of him. She was finally able to vent all her negative emotions in his arms without any restraint.

This undoubtedly proves that, despite the passage of time, she still trusts and relies on him as much as she did when she was young, firmly believing that he has the ability to build a safe haven for her.

All he can do now is to hold firm to his beliefs.

"An Yi, don't be afraid, our daughter will be safe and sound, she will definitely come back to us!"

Li Kongchen held his wife's trembling hand tightly, comforting her with hope, and at the same time comforting himself.

An Yi nodded, her eyes blurry with tears, but the fear and worry in her heart were still hard to calm down: "But..."

Li Kongchen took a deep breath and further explained, "Don't worry, I notified my disciple three months ago and instructed him to mobilize all the spies and guards in the four great kingdoms of Dongyang, Xiyue, Nanshang, and Beixia to help us find our daughter."

He paused for a moment, then continued, “My disciple is no ordinary person. He’s done a very thorough job of finding people. He has outposts in every city, and he can mobilize at least several hundred or even a thousand men at a time.”

“These people are all well-trained and experienced elites. They can find people much faster than we can find them blindly on our own.”

An Yi seemed to see a glimmer of hope, and her eyes brightened slightly: "Really? That's wonderful."

He squeezed An Yi's hand tightly, giving her more confidence: "Not only that, he has also set up liaison stations between the four major countries. Once any clues about our daughter are discovered, the news can be quickly transmitted back. So, I firmly believe that it won't be long before we find our daughter's whereabouts."

"Next, we'll go to his palace. While we wait for news of our daughter, I'll take care of your health. I guarantee that within six months, you'll be back to seven or eight tenths of your former strength."

"If we still haven't found our daughter by then, we'll go out and search together again. We'll search every corner of the world for our Anian!"

An Yi nodded slightly, her eyes full of gratitude. "Thank you, Kong Chen. But isn't it too much trouble for them to stay at your disciple's place?"

Li Kongchen gently shook his head. "No, his mother is my savior, and I saved him too, so we're even. Besides, he respects me a lot, and he would be more than happy to help if I could."

The journey was quite long, for no other reason than that An Yi's body was too weak to withstand a fast pace. Therefore, it took the two of them a full three months before they finally saw the familiar gates of the Prince Xian's residence.

Upon learning that An Yi and Li Kongchen were about to return, Mo Yun, having received instructions, waited at the gate of the mansion early in the morning.

Seeing the two figures approaching from afar, he hurried forward, his face full of respect. When the two reached him, Mo Yun bowed slightly and said, "Welcome back to the manor, Elder Kong and Madam!"

Upon entering the Prince's residence, Dongfang Yu dared not delay in the slightest and quickly arranged for the residence's top physician to come and diagnose his master's wife's condition.

However, An Yi's illness was a rare case of Gu worm backlash, which was difficult for ordinary doctors to detect.

Fortunately, Dongfang Yu understood the key to the matter and immediately ordered the collection of various rare and precious medicinal herbs in the hope that they could help his master's wife's condition.

As for the remaining trivial matters of care, they could only be left to Li Kongchen, because only he knew how to prescribe the right medicine, and only the nourishing soups he personally brewed were effective.

Although she had been traveling during this period, An Yi had clearly felt that her condition had greatly improved after more than three months of careful recuperation from Kong Chen.

For some reason, the moment I stepped into the Prince's Mansion, a sense of security and peace of mind instantly welled up in my heart.

Perhaps it was because this place held so many warm and beautiful memories of Li Kongchen, or perhaps it was the atmosphere of the palace that made her feel so close and comfortable. In any case, the aura of this mansion resonated deeply with her soul.

Because Li Kongchen disliked others disturbing their peaceful life as a couple, and was worried that An Yi would feel constrained and uncomfortable, he specifically instructed Dongfang Yu not to go to his residence unless it was urgent.

In this way, the couple can fully enjoy this rare moment of peace.

Therefore, even though An Yi stayed at the Prince's Mansion for more than half a month, Wang Xiyue never saw what she looked like. She only heard that An Yi had been attacked by Gu worms. Her medical skills were generally not helpful, so she could only send some of the precious medicinal herbs she had brought back to An Yi, hoping that they would have some effect.

One afternoon, An Yi felt much better and wanted to go for a walk. She was strolling in a small garden next to her residence when she suddenly heard the cheerful and playful voice of a woman.

"Sister, you're so busy every day, Zhuzhu hasn't seen you in so long. Can you play with me for a bit today?"
