Exiled to Lingnan, the Crown Prince's wife raises children, cultivates the land, and leads the

The guard bowed and scraped, saying, "Sir, we'll leave the young master here."

The guard wiped the nonexistent sweat from his forehead and ran into Lord Cui on his way back to the capital.

Cui Lie dismounted and strode forward, immediately spotting Jin Mozhi lying on his side amidst the mountain of corpses, his face smeared with blood from some unknown body.

He stepped forward and kicked it, a glint of disdain flashing in his eyes: "Jin Mozhi, so what if you're born into nobility? So what if you're a prince? Aren't you just like a dead fish on a chopping board now?"

"You can just stay in hell and watch how your Jin family members go to hell one by one."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cui Lie took the torch from the guard next to him and threw it at the mountain of corpses. In the dry autumn air, the mountain of corpses instantly turned into a volcano!

Under the cold night sky, amidst the blazing firelight, Cui Lie's face was cold and sinister, his eyes malevolent, and a wicked smile played on his lips—the joy of a successful conspiracy.

Only after Cui Lie and the others left did Chong Shan finally say, "That bastard Cui Lie really cuts off all traces of the weeds, even burning the prince's corpse to ashes."

Shisui coldly watched their retreating figures, then hoisted the prince onto her back and said, "The important thing now is to bring the prince back to life!"

After the battle of Pingsha Pass, the seriously wounded prince was urgently summoned and escorted back to the capital. From the prince defying the imperial decree to protect the villagers of that village of three hundred households, to the deputy general He from the Cui family trying to steal credit, the prince's return was sure to be fraught with danger.

To protect the crown prince, the army's renowned physician delivered a drug to induce a state of feigned death.

If the prince cannot wake up within three days, then he will never wake up again!

Before heading to the capital, we spent two days there, including a day at the Marquis's residence. Now, it's the last minute.

Chongshan and Zhishui continued into the mountains and finally entered a farmhouse at the foot of the mountain.

"quick."

A man dressed in shorts walked forward anxiously and stuffed the medicine directly into the prince's mouth.

Chongshan and Zhishui stared longingly at the young prince on the bed, choking back tears as they asked, "Medical Doctor Hu, the young prince died while injured in the Marquis's residence. Can he possibly come back to life?"

"Boil some water and get the medicine."

Doctor Hu did not answer. He changed all the dirty clothes off the prince and carefully cleaned the wounds, then dressed him in clean clothes.

Doctor Hu pressed several acupoints on the prince's body.

"Ahem~"

The prince coughed, and Chongshan and Zhishui exclaimed excitedly, "He's alive! He's alive!"

Doctor Hu touched the prince's wrist; the pulse was so weak and barely perceptible that it seemed it might stop at any moment.

Doctor Hu frowned: "The young master has both new and old injuries, and he has a fever. Whether he can survive depends on fate."

For a moment, everyone fell silent as they listened to the Crown Prince's faint breathing, praying that he would survive.

Heaven Prison.

The Jin family slowly accepted the fact that they were about to be exiled from the prison, their low sobs mingling with fear.

Cheng Qiqi sat in the corner with her daughter in her arms, hoping they wouldn't be so inconsiderate...

"Cheng Qiqi, you're definitely the one who killed Big Brother!"

A little girl walked angrily toward Cheng Qiqi.

As soon as Cheng Qiqi lifted her leg, the little girl fell face-first into the mud. If she remembered correctly, it was the youngest daughter of the fourth wife, Jin Qing'er, who, like Jin Xue'er, had always liked to put on airs since she was a child!

"roll."

Cheng Qiqi covered her daughter's ears with her hands. Her daughter was sleeping soundly, and she didn't want to wake her up.

"you……"

Just as Jin Qing'er was about to say something, the yamen runners outside the door banged on the railing, shouting, "Dinner's ready! Anyone who dares to fight will be whipped!"

The bailiff's impolite voice instantly silenced Jin Qing'er's anger, which hadn't yet surfaced. Upon seeing the food, Jin Qing'er exploded: "Are you treating us like beggars? Even pig slop isn't this bad!"

"I won't eat it!"

Jin Xue'er glanced at the porridge that was so thin you could see your reflection in it, and the steamed buns that were indistinguishable in color, and then kicked them!

The entire Jin family was furious.

Cheng Qiqi covered her daughter's ears, looked at the overturned porridge and steamed buns, and lowered her eyes. She had eaten her fill of steamed buns at the Marquis's residence earlier, so she wasn't hungry at all now.

The Jin family kept cursing, so Cheng Qiqi secretly picked out two wads of cotton and stuffed them into her daughter's ears. Leaning against the wall, she quietly fell asleep. Tomorrow she would be exiled, and she didn't know how hard it would be to walk!

"You're in jail now, and you still think you're some rich young lady?" The bailiffs entered the cell and were about to grab Jin Qing'er, who was making the biggest fuss, to take her out.

Jin Qing'er turned pale with fright and refused to go out. She said, her face pale, "I won't make a fuss anymore, I'll never make a fuss again."

The fourth wife, Li, stepped forward and secretly slipped some loose silver coins to the constable. The constable weighed the coins in his hand before coldly saying, "If you make any more noise, take him out and teach him a lesson."

After the constables left, the Jin family fell completely silent!

Half-asleep, Cheng Qiqi felt as if she were hugging a stove. Her heart skipped a beat. Oh no, An'an has a fever!

Cheng Qiqi looked down and saw that her daughter's face was flushed and her lips were chapped.

"An'an, An'an, wake up!"

Cheng Qiqi gently patted her daughter's face, her eyes filled with self-reproach. It was her negligence. Even if she had lied to An'an about playing house, it was all fake. But to witness her own father die before her eyes, and to see Cui Lie's sword today...

The little girl must have been terrified!

"What's wrong?"

Liu Suyi couldn't sleep at all. Cheng Qiqi's movements made Liu Suyi immediately bring over some thin porridge: "Quick, give An'an some water!"

Asking the yamen runners for water was out of the question. After Cheng Qiqi gave her meat buns today, Liu Suyi wasn't hungry at all. But, for some inexplicable reason, she left behind the porridge and steamed buns.

Cheng Qiqi looked at the thin porridge that was brought to her, and she never expected that she would be the one who accepted it the fastest in the Marquis's mansion.

"daughter."

Jin Sui'an's weak voice rang out.

Just then, Cheng Qiqi, who didn't know how to change the porridge, immediately put down the water and touched An'an's forehead with the back of her hand: "An'an, where does it hurt? Tell Mommy."

"Mother, I dreamt of lots of blood, and Father was lying on the ground. No matter how I called him, he wouldn't answer me."

"Waaah, does Daddy not like me?!"

Jin Sui'an sobbed.

Cheng Qiqi immediately understood that the little girl was having a nightmare from fright, and might have even developed a fever from the shock.

"An'an, don't be afraid. Daddy loves you the most. If you don't believe me, ask Grandma. Grandma would never lie to you."

Cheng Qiqi gently patted Jin Sui'an's back to comfort him.

"grandmother?"

Jin Suian looked at Liu Suyi timidly, wanting to get close but not daring to, which made Liu Suyi extremely regretful.

Liu Suyi tried her best to make her smile gentle, and even her voice was softer than usual: "An'an, your mother is right, your father loves An'an the most!"

Thinking of Mo'er who died young, Liu Suyi couldn't help but shed tears again.

Taking advantage of the situation, Cheng Qiqi replaced the thin porridge with water, added a little fever reducer, and then fed it to Jin Suian: "An'an, be good, drink the water and your fever will go down!"
