Chapter 517: Chapter 518, Princess’ Introspection


Yun Jinnian’s voice was somewhat urgent.


Si Qin, Si Ju, Hemei, and Henuan heard him and immediately stopped.


"Miss!" Hemei and Henuan called out softly, cupped their hands towards Si Qin and Si Ju, and swiftly walked to Yun Jinnian’s side, asking with concern, "Miss, how are you?"


"I’m fine!" Yun Jinnian replied softly, comforting them.


Facing Hemei and Henuan who were protecting her, she felt a warm feeling in her heart and said, "You all wait for me outside, I will go see the Princess!"


"Yes!"


Hemei and Henuan complied.


They quickly found the medicine chest and handed it to Yun Jinnian.


Yun Jinnian took a deep breath.


In her heart, she was repelled by Princess Jinfeng stuffing women at Chu Yu, but she couldn’t rest easy without checking.


If she really married Chu Yu in the future, Princess Jinfeng would be her sister-in-law, and she couldn’t ignore her well-being.


As a doctor, she had to set aside any prejudices.


Carrying the medicine chest, she stepped forward and knocked on the door. This time, she did not hear Princess Jinfeng’s angry outburst. Yun Jinnian hesitated for a moment, then pushed the door open, which creaked ajar.


The room was pitch dark; not even an oil lamp or candle was lit. Yun Jinnian, not familiar with Princess Jinfeng’s room layout and not daring to move around at will, did not hear Princess Jinfeng’s voice and called out, "Si Ju, could you please light the lamps?"


Hearing this, Si Ju immediately entered the room and lit the oil lamps and candles.


The Princess didn’t make a sound, apparently taking the face-saving out given by Miss Yun.


The room instantly brightened, and Si Ju, not daring to linger, immediately left the room.


Before leaving, she glanced around and caught sight of Princess Jinfeng in the corner of the bed, which put her at ease.


Yun Jinnian gently closed the door and surveyed the room’s furnishings.


Everything was lavish and refined; any item here was worth a fortune, the gauze curtains danced lightly, and a subtle fragrance filled the air—clean and orderly, very much in Princess Jinfeng’s style.


Yun Jinnian didn’t see Princess Jinfeng in the antechamber, and recalling Si Ju’s expression as she left, she relaxed.


That meant Princess Jinfeng was in the room.


Yun Jinnian stepped into the bedroom.


A quick glance revealed Princess Jinfeng curled up tidily at the foot of the bed.


Her head was buried in her knees; her body was shuddering, and there was blood beneath her knees. Yun Jinnian took a deep breath and moved to squat beside Princess Jinfeng, remaining silent.


Initially, Princess Jinfeng did not think she was wrong until Chu Yu got angry and told her to return to her fief, which shocked her.


What was wrong with her brother having a woman by his side at his age?


It was certainly better than being called a homosexual.


But after being yelled at by her brother and crying in her room, she thought it over and realized the seriousness of the situation.


If her brother really fell in love with women, and beauties kept being sent to his residence, how many of them were actually good? Who stood behind them? She had indeed been foolish.


Now, with her brother still angry, she did not dare to apologize, but thankfully, Yun Jinnian had come.


Yet Yun Jinnian had been in the room for a long time without offering any words of comfort, making her anxious.


Looking up at Yun Jinnian, she saw that Yun Jinnian was even quieter than herself, utterly flabbergasted, "..."


After waiting and waiting, still not hearing Yun Jinnian speak, Princess Jinfeng finally spoke softly, "Jinnian, are you angry with me?"


Upon hearing this, Yun Jinnian looked up at Princess Jinfeng, took a deep breath, and said, "Let me take a look at your wound for you, Princess."


Princess Jinfeng nodded.


Yun Jinnian then lifted Princess Jinfeng’s skirt and observed the blood seeping through the pristine white undergarment.


She opened the medicine chest, took out a pair of scissors, and cut open the undergarment to reveal several bloody wounds on the leg.


"I will clean it with medicinal alcohol, which might hurt a bit, so please bear with it!"
