Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

"Jiang Xue..." There was a hint of helplessness in Xiao Zhan's voice. He gently held Jiang Xue's wrist and spoke gently.

"Jiang Xue, I've closed my eyes, you can let go now."

Jiang Xue confirmed that Xiao Zhan had really closed his eyes before she slowly put down her hand. Seeing the faint red mark on his face, she felt full of regret, thinking that she seemed to have been a little too heavy-handed just now.

She pulled out a small box of ointment from her bosom and carefully applied it to Xiao Zhan's wound, watching the red marks gradually fade away. Then she gently stood on tiptoe and left a gentle kiss on his cheek as an apology: "Yun Che, I'm sorry."

"It's okay." As she approached, Xiao Zhan gently put his arms around her waist and lowered his head to give her a light kiss. He licked his lips with satisfaction and whispered in her ear.

"Write this down first, and we'll settle the accounts slowly when we get home."

Jiang Xue's heartbeat suddenly quickened. She glared at him shyly and cursed inwardly that this guy was so indecent.

On the other hand, Chu Jingming's behavior was even more unexpected.

He strode into the room, picked up the baby in Yunyan's arms, and handed it to Jiang Xue: "Princess, please help take care of the child for a while."

As soon as he finished speaking, he closed the door, blocking out everything from the outside world.

"This..." Jiang Xue was holding the crying baby in her arms, feeling a little overwhelmed. Did Chu Jingming treat her as a temporary babysitter?

"This child's eyes and eyebrows are really like Jingming." Xiao Zhan heard the door closing and opened his eyes and said.

He lowered his head and saw Jiang Xue holding the child seriously, and he also came over curiously. Since he heard that Jing Ming had a child, this was the first time he saw this little life.

The child was indeed very cute, but was smaller than the average child, had a pale complexion, and looked a little weak. His tiny nails were bluish, which was very different from a healthy child.

Seeing these characteristics of the child, Jiang Xue felt deep sympathy and self-blame.

In order to save Yunyan, she had to transfer all the toxins in her body to her unborn child, causing the child to be poisoned at birth.

As soon as Jiang Xue picked up the child, she immediately noticed that the child's heartbeat was weak and his breathing was almost undetectable, as if he might leave this world at any time.

This also explains why Yunyan guards the child closely, fearing that the precious little life will be lost if she is not careful.

A child is a part of a mother, and no matter how many difficulties she faces, she will do her best to protect her child. This is true for both Yunyan and Jiang Xue as a mother.

When she saw the child, Jiang Xue couldn't help but think of her daughter who she had been forced to send away, and her heart ached.

Xiao Zhan noticed her change and realized that she was thinking about the child who was sent away without ever seeing him.

Since the reunion, Jiang Xue confessed to him everything that happened along the way, including what happened to her daughter. In order to find her daughter, Xiao Zhan has stepped up his search efforts and vowed to bring her back.

"The child's condition is very unstable and it's windy outside. Let's go inside and take care of her first."

Xiao Zhan said gently, hugging Jiang Xue and the child at the same time. He was keenly aware of the noises in the house that were not suitable for children. Jiang Xue nodded in agreement, and the two returned to the room together.

In the dark corner, Fang Lansu was secretly peeping at Yunyan's residence, her eyes full of jealousy and hatred. She didn't understand why the prince always went to the west wing recently, it turned out to be for Yunyan and her child!

Fang Lansu's face was pale, and she had lost her former radiance. The Fang family suffered a blow due to their involvement with the deposed crown prince, and their status plummeted, and she was also subjected to a lot of ridicule.

She hated Chu Jingming for ignoring her, hated Yunyan for taking away her love, and hated even more that the child was still alive!

"I'm having such a bad life, why should I let her have an easy life!" Fang Lansu said gritting her teeth.

"I will destroy her and everything about her!"

Back in the room, Xiao Zhan looked at the crying baby on the bed and felt a little helpless. He had never taken care of such a young child before, and for the first time he realized how difficult it was to raise a child.

The child had been making a fuss for more than an hour and still refused to be quiet. At first everyone thought she was hungry, so they called the nurse to feed her.

In order to make his wife Yunyan less tired, Chu Jingming specially hired a wet nurse to help. However, Yunyan was always worried that the child was not eating well, so she insisted on feeding the child herself.

Today, the wet nurse tried to feed the baby for the first time, but the baby was not used to the new taste. He refused after drinking only half the bottle and cried, refusing to let the wet nurse hold him.

Jiang Xue took the child and coaxed him gently for a long time before the child calmed down temporarily. But the good times didn't last long, as the child suddenly started vomiting milk again, making Jiang Xue all over.

In desperation, Jiang Xue had to temporarily leave the child in the care of Xiao Zhan while she went to change her clothes.

"Take a look to see if her diaper is wet." Jiang Xue said to Xiao Zhan while changing her clothes. Her back through the screen made Xiao Zhan's heart waver.

He hadn't been close to Jiang Xue for a long time, and when he heard the noise from the next room just now, he couldn't hold back his excitement.

However, the crying of the child soon interrupted his thoughts. Xiao Zhan realized that if the child kept crying like this, he would not be able to realize his ideas.

So he got up to check on the child. When he touched the child's body, he was immediately shocked: "Why is it so hot?" He remembered that the child's temperature was not so high before.

"Jiang Xue, the child has a fever!" Xiao Zhan carefully held the child in the same way Jiang Xue had held him before, but this posture obviously made the child feel uncomfortable. She struggled even harder and cried even louder.

Jiang Xue quickly changed her clothes and rushed over, taking the child and examining him carefully.

"Oh no, this is not an ordinary fever, it's a symptom of poisoning!"

The little girl's whole body turned purple and red. Jiang Xue hurriedly placed her gently on the bed, then took out a thin golden needle and carefully gave her acupuncture to relieve her pain.

Seeing this, Xiao Zhan immediately ordered the servants around him to prepare hot towels and sent a smart little maid to inform Chu Jingming and Yunyan.

Not long after, hurried footsteps were heard in the corridor.

Yunyan almost ran into the room and went straight to the bed, her face full of anxiety. She didn't even have time to change her clothes, and her collar was slightly open due to her quick movements.

Xiao Zhan turned his head away, unwilling to look any further, and quietly left the room, leaving the two ladies alone.

"How is the child?" Chu Jingming followed closely, his eyes full of worry.

When he and Yunyan were enjoying their own world, they suddenly heard the news that their daughter was poisoned, and their hearts tightened instantly.

Yunyan's face turned pale in an instant, and tears rolled down like beads from a broken string. She was so anxious that she wanted to rush to her daughter immediately, but fortunately Chu Jingming hugged her tightly and she did not lose her composure.
