Part 1 - Yu Nu Jiao / Jade Slave / Enslaved By Love

Chapter 039 Remember Your Identity

Yin Ji left in the middle of the night. Xie Yun opened her eyes and stared at the blurry roof in a daze.

With Yin Ji's arrival, the floor heating was unblocked and the wooden planks were removed, as if everything had returned to the way it was before.

But Xie Yun knew clearly that it was different. There was a big hole in her heart. Even if the side hall was warm, there was still a chill that kept seeping out.

Cold, very cold.

She curled up in the quilt again and fell asleep in a daze.

Yin Ji returned to the main hall but couldn't fall asleep again. He knew clearly that after today, Xie Yun would never be able to become the Xie Yun she was before, but he didn't feel much joy in his heart for something that should have been happy.

Maybe it wasn't the degree he wanted yet.

He leaned on the soft couch in a daze, his eyes unconsciously fell on his hands. Although the light in the side hall was dim just now, he still noticed something was wrong. Xie Yun's hands and feet were swollen. She had frostbite after being locked up for two months.

Really delicate, is it really that cold?

He snorted, turned over on the bed, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Cai Tianxi turned off the lights and walked out quietly. Suddenly he remembered that there was no incense in the main hall, so he hurried back, but he saw Yin Ji standing in the corridor from a distance, without even a cloak on.

He was startled: "Oh, Your Majesty, why are you standing outside like this? It's freezing cold, what if you catch a cold?"

He hurriedly took clothes to put on Yin Ji, and suddenly touched Yin Ji's hand, shivering: "It's so cold... Imperial Physician, go and get the Imperial Physician."

Yin Ji frowned: "Don't make a fuss, I just couldn't sleep and came out for a walk, why do you need to use the Imperial Physician?"

Cai Tianxi was very worried: "The Holy Body is noble, how can it be in danger? You have to take care of yourself for the sake of the people of the world."

Yin Ji lowered his eyes and looked at his hands, not knowing what he thought of, and raised his chin slightly: "Don't talk too much... Never mind, I'll listen to you."

Cai Tianxi hurriedly asked someone to call the Imperial Physician, but Yin Ji sent him away before he could hear the pulse.

He didn't sleep well the whole night. The next day, when he served Yin Ji and got up, he was relieved to see that he didn't have any symptoms of catching a cold. He was about to take over the maid's job to serve Yin Ji, but suddenly he remembered Xie Yun. She should have been released from the ban yesterday. Why didn't she come to serve him today?

He looked around and didn't see any shadow that looked like Xie Yun. He couldn't help but look up at Yin Ji. The other party seemed to have not noticed that the person who should have come didn't come, and his face was expressionless.

Cai Tianxi didn't dare to say much, and followed Yin Ji to the court.

Because Yin Ji used the position of the queen as bait a while ago, the aristocratic families are now biting tightly, and the Ministry of Rites has to submit memorials almost every day to request the establishment of the queen.

Yin Ji temporarily evaded the issue of the next year's spring examination. The Xiao family also reported several crimes of the Xun family, saying that the Xun family sold official positions and titles, and committed favoritism and fraud. The two families quarreled fiercely in the court. They were obviously civil officials, but they almost fought.
