Chapter 303: Something fishy,looking for trouble
When she heard the sound outside, Lin Chujiu was glad that she didn’t run away. Otherwise, how can she slip away from Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guardsmen with her own two legs?
Without a trace of hesitation, Lin Chujiu jumped out from the carriage and looked at the guard, who was kneeling on his knees. Lin Chujiu said without any discomfort: “Get up.”
Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guardsmen were all well-trained. When they stood up, they were in unison. Lin Chujiu was wearing unfitted clothes, so when the guard saw her, he immediately bent his waist and asked her to get on Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s carriage.
The capital’s gate was a place, where people come and go. So, when Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guardsmen arrived, they naturally attracted many people’s attention. But, ordinary people simply can’t discuss the imperial family. When people heard the Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guardsmen called someone a w.a.n.gfei, they knew an imperial princess was present, so they hurried to kowtow in the ground. Even the woman earlier, who Lin Chujiu help, get off her carriage and kowtowed on the side.
The woman didn’t even dream about it. That the young lady that saved her son was actually a w.a.n.gfei. It felt like a dream.
Aside from the people nearby, the soldiers, who wear guarding in the gate also followed. For ordinary people, the soldiers that were guarding the gate were someone that they can’t afford to offend. But, in front of someone from the royal family, those soldiers were nothing. So, when the soldiers heard someone from the royal family was here, they busily offered a.s.sistance.
“No need.” Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guard indifferently refused. Then, he turned back and respectfully asked Lin Chujiu again to get inside the carriage.
At this moment, Lin Chujiu had no choice but to get inside the carriage. She doesn’t want to cause trouble, but… …
When she was about to get in, the medical system suddenly gave her a punishment. Because she didn’t treat the patient at all.
“Ah…” Because of sudden pain, Lin Chujiu’s face became pale. She bites her lips, so she didn’t scream. But, she suddenly held her head and straighten her waist, which causes the other guards to pay attention to her.
“w.a.n.gfei, what’s the matter?” When the guard saw Lin Chujiu’s facial expression drastically changed, he busily asked her condition.
“Nothing, it’s nothing… …” The pain began to subside, so although she was still sweating, Lin Chujiu can now speak a bit.
“But… …” Are you sure you’re really okay?
Xiao w.a.n.gfus’ guardsmen were very worried, but they didn’t dare to go forward and help. After all, men and women were different. Most of all, they were master and servant.
“I’m fine, I’ll just take a break.” Lin Chujiu was so unlucky, she treated the wrong patient.
Well, even if she knew that she help the wrong person, she will still save the child. After all, the child couldn’t wait any longer to enter the capital and find a doctor.
Lin Chujiu supported herself by grabbing the carriage’s door, then waited for the medical system’s punishment to end completely.
Although Lin Chujiu was the focus of the attention of the crowd, because of her ident.i.ty, ordinary people and soldiers were not allowed to look at her straight. Aside from Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guardsmen, no one found out her abnormal condition.

The Crown Prince, who just stepped his foot at the gate, asked after witnessing the scene: “What happened? Did someone dared to cause trouble under the capital’s gate?”
Lin Chujiu was wearing coa.r.s.e clothes from head to toe, but she was surrounded by a group of guards. Additionally, the people around her was still kowtowing in the ground. Although she didn’t cause any trouble, it was indeed troublesome.
When the General of the capital defender saw the scene, he didn’t dare to give a comment himself. They were so busy earlier, so he didn’t bother to check what was going on.
Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s people never tried to hide their ident.i.ty. As soon as they were questioned about the scene, the Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guard immediately reported: “Answering back to his Royal Crown Prince, this Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guard came to pick up Xiao w.a.n.gfei in the capital’s gate. Xiao w.a.n.gfei seems to be having trouble.”
“Xiao w.a.n.gfei?” The Crown Prince’s first reaction was a bit tricky: “Let’s go and see.”
“This… …” The general of the capital defender was in a dilemma. However, the Crown Prince ignored him and went on his own with his soldiers.
When the soldiers on the road dispersed, the Crown Prince immediately went close to Lin Chujiu. Ordinary people don’t know who the crown prince is, but seeing the line of soldiers, they hurriedly bow down and didn’t dare to look at the person.
Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guardsmen naturally knew the Crown Prince. When they saw him coming, they knew he has no good intentions, so they had a sullen face. They pretended didn’t see the crown prince. They refused to take the lead in paying respect.
The soldiers defending the capital’s gate knew that the Crown Prince will come to inspect today. So seeing this scene, the soldiers busily kowtowed and shouted long live his majesty, even if they really haven’t seen the Crown Prince appearance.
The soldiers defending the capital’s gate voice were very loud. However, Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guardsmen pretended like strangers. They only kneel down and give a courtesy.
Lin Chujiu was waiting for the medical system’s punishment to finish. When suddenly, she heard a group of people shouting “long live his majesty”. At that moment, Lin Chujiu’s face immediately turns black.
How unlucky was she really is?
“No need to be so polite.” The Crown Prince was in front of so many people, so he absolutely had a soft and gentle tone. His words and demeanor revealed a royal dignity and atmosphere.
The Crown Prince stayed sitting in his horse and seemingly has no intention to dismount. He just waved his hand, indicating for Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guardsmen to move to the side. Then, he said: “Imperial Aunt?” Although it was a little strange to say, looking at her back, Lin Chujiu seemed to be in good condition.
However, appearing in this time and place, and wearing something like that, there must be really a problem.
Lin Chujiu knew that things will be bad. So, she raised her hand and wipe off the sweat on her face and the blood on her mouth. Then, she turned around and looked at the Crown Prince sitting on his horse. With a smile, she said: “Oh, it turned to be his royal highness the crown prince.”
“Is it really you, Imperial Aunt?” The Crown Prince revealed a smile on his face and took a stepped forward. The horse head gets closer and closer to Lin Chujiu as if he was trying to bully her.
The smile on Lin Chujiu’s face remained unchanged. She also didn’t retreat even half a step. She only said with a bit trace of ridicule: “What? Is the royal crown prince can’t recognize his elder? Even more than this horse?”
There was a flashed of rage in the eyes of the Crown Prince, but he said with his mouth: “May Imperial Aunt forgive this crown prince. This crown prince didn’t expect to see you here, and for a moment became rude. This crown prince asks Imperial Aunt’s forgiveness.”
Eh, this prince has grown up!
Lin Chujiu continued to smile and said: “How can this imperial aunt not forgive you. Your royal crown prince is this country’s future emperor. How can someone like me say that you are guilty.”
“Imperial Aunt’s words are too heavy.” The Crown Prince go with the flow, but then change the topic with Lin Chujiu’s clothes: “Why is Imperial Aunt in the capital’s gate? Did some bandits attack you here? Who dared to let Imperial Aunt suffer?”
Listening to those words, he seems full of care, but actually not… …
“Your Royal Crown Prince is thinking too much. People live and work in the East peacefully. And who will dare to cause trouble right under the foot of the Emperor? I am just playing around with your Imperial Uncle.” Lin Chujiu explains why she was in the capital’s gate with a simple statement, then said: “The time is not too early, I should go back now, I will not delay his royal crown prince’s business. “
The Crown Prince was willing to have a verbal fight with her, but she was not willing to cooperate.
“Imperial Aunt… …” The Crown Prince came forward, wanting to pull Lin Chujiu, but he was stopped by Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guard: “His royal crown prince, w.a.n.gfei is very tired, she needs to go back and rest. This Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guard is asking his royal highness to give way.”
“Get out of the way… …” The Crown Prince waved his hand and pushed aside the Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guard.
Of course, Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guard was not someone who can be pushed aside. It’s just, the crown prince’s ident.i.ty was there. He couldn’t be too arrogant towards him. The Crown Prince continued moving towards the carriage, the Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guard cannot stop him… …
