Xie Yun struggled in the darkness for an unknown period of time before she finally regained consciousness. Her mouth was filled with bitterness. She opened her eyes with difficulty, but was forced to close them again by the candlelight beside the bed.
"Aunt, are you awake?"
Xiuxiu was surprised and put down the medicine in her hand and leaned over to see.
Xie Yun had a severe headache and chest pain. The pain of drowning was still in her memory. She trembled unconsciously, but Xiuxiu was there, so she had to force herself to cheer up.
"How long have I slept?"
Xiuxiu's face wrinkled into a bun, one hand supported her, and the other hand stuffed a pillow behind her: "It's been a day and a night, aunt, you are too careless, Taiye Lake is so deep, how could you fall in, and it's so cold..."
Xie Yun paused: "I fell in by myself? That's what people say outside?"
"Yeah... isn't it right?"
Xie Yun's face was pale: "Is it right?"
She grabbed Shen Guang's hand at that time, because she calculated that she would cover up after the accident, and it might delay saving her, but the more this happened, the more it would become a handle.
But she deliberately involved the other party, not to take the opportunity to do something to the other party, but to have a bargaining chip. Although she avoided today's incident, it is hard to guarantee that Zhaoyang Palace will not have new actions in the future. With this handle, there is at least room for maneuver, and she doesn't have to toss herself again.
"Who sent me back?"
The little girl blushed, and just as she was about to speak, a male voice sounded first: "Who do you want to send you back?"
Xie Yun was startled, this voice...
She looked over and saw Yin Ji was indeed in the room, playing with the teacup at this time, and his words were full of sarcasm.
She had survived a disaster, and her mind was already confused. When she suddenly saw him, she forgot what to say for a moment. After a long time, she came to her senses and stood up to get off the ground, but she was too weak and fell to the ground before she could put on her shoes.
A slender and powerful arm was around her waist, and he gently lifted her up and threw her back on the bed.
"Don't move around just after waking up... Where's the medicine?"
Xiuxiu hurriedly brought the medicine over, and seeing that the two had something to say, she retreated tactfully.
Yin Ji stirred the medicine bowl, but put it down again: "It's cold... No need to drink it, anyway, you probably want to stay sick for a few more days."
These words were chilly, and Xie Yun felt nervous.
She was not surprised that Yin Ji could guess that she had designed such a play, but she was not bothering anyone, so why should he be so mocking and disgusted?
She unconsciously grabbed the quilt: "I don't understand what the emperor said."
"Don't understand?" Yin Ji raised his eyebrows, as if he was amused by Xie Yun's stubbornness, "You are so smart, how could you not understand?"
He bent down, and his angular face was suspended in front of Xie Yun, but the next moment his face suddenly changed, and the whole person became cold: "Xie Yun, you are so brave, you dare to jump into Taiye Lake..."
Xie Yun couldn't stand his sharp eyes, and turned her head slightly. Although she knew that they both knew the cause and result of this matter, she still couldn't say it clearly.
