Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
They only suspected the crown prince. Although all the evidence pointed to the crown prince’s suspicion, they did not have any evidence. If news spread, she and Judge Wuwould both be beheaded.
In order to protect themselves, they could not speak even if they guessed the truth. However, just because they could not say it now did not mean that they could not say it in the future.
This time, the crown prince was clearly targeting her and the prince regent’s residence. If Gu Qingxue had not discovered some clues and woken up the thirteenth princess, the thirteenth princess would have definitely died a few days later if she remained unconscious without eating or drinking. At that time, not to mention the empress, she was afraid that the emperor and the empress dowager would misunderstand her relationship with the prince regent ‘s residence.
It was reasonable for the crown prince to plot against the prince regent’s residence. After all, without Prince Heng, Rong Zhan’s position in the imperial court would become more and more unshakeable. He also had military power in his hands, so the crown prince would naturally be afraid of him.
However, what did these political struggles have to do with her?
Gu Qingxue could not help but feel angry when she thought about this. She laughed in anger. “How is the princess feeling now?”
The thirteenth princess had no energy left in her after crying. Ever since she fell off the carriage and was forced into a coma, she had been in a very tense state. Now that she had woken up and cried for such a long time, she could not help but feel a little tired. She rubbed her eyes and said, “Mm… I’m so tired. 1 , I want to sleep.”
“Your Highness, please take a rest.” Gu Qingxue immediately pulled the thirteenth Princess to let go of her, then let the thirteenth Princess lie down on the bed.
The thirteenth princess watched as Gu qingxue slowly covered herself with the blanket. She asked nervously, “If I sleep now, I won’t faint again, right?
No, I’m worried. Doctor Gu, I want you to stay here with me. Before I wake up, you can’t leave!”
Gu Qingxue saw nervous expression and nodded in agreement. “But this time, I’m here with my face covered. When Your
Highness wakes up, remember to call me Lil t Hai.”
“l know,” The thirteenth princess closed her eyes in relief and fell into a deep sleep after a few breaths.
Judge Wu waited for the thirteenth Princess to fall asleep before he spoke, ‘Qingxue, from what you’ve said, you don’t intend to let the empress know that you’re the one who cured the thirteenth princess?”
“Even if she knows, the empress won’t change her opinion of me so easily. I don’t need the empress to remember my kindness,” Gu Qingxue said in disdain.
She had saved the thirteenth princess to find out the truth, not to make the empress realize that she was innocent. From the moment the empress had deliberately made things difficult for her, she would not get along well with the empress. She also did not want to do those superficial things.
Judge Wu looked at Gu qingxue, his eyes filled with emotion. He slowly said, “You are indeed different from the others. If it was someone else who saved the empress’ precious daughter, I don’t know how they would claim credit for it. However, you are not interested at all.”
“l don’t care if the empress will give you the credit,” Gu Qingxue said indifferently.
Judge Wu laughed. “Alright, then you stay here and accompany the princess. I’ll go and explain the situation to the empress. You can continue to pretend to be Lil t Hai and accompany the princess.”
After Gu Qingxue agreed, she watched Judge Wu leave the back hall..
