"No, you are seriously injured now, how can I just stay out of it and only care about my own safety?" Qu Xinzhu shook his head and refused.

Mo Li's eyes were dark, and a hint of impatience flashed across them. "Zhu'er, I am alone and weak, and I can't protect myself, so I can't protect you. You should go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion first. As long as you are safe, I will be relieved."

Only by letting her return to the Prime Minister's Mansion could he use the excuse of visiting Qu Xinzhu to establish a relationship with the Prime Minister and then plot to bring down the Third Prince.

This was his plan, but the beautiful woman next to him had different ideas.

Let her go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion?

How could she, the daughter of the prime minister who had impersonated him, dare to go back?

She was not a fool, so she naturally knew that although Mo Li loved her, he loved her identity as the prime minister's daughter more. Once he knew about it, he would definitely be furious, which might affect their marriage.

She had finally come this far and would soon become an honorable princess. She must not give up.

So, she looked at him with love and a look of reluctance, "Li, I don't want to leave you. When you are seriously injured and in need of help, how can I, as your wife-to-be, abandon you and not care about you? Even if His Majesty and my father come, I will not leave you even a step."

As she spoke, she stood up, took the towel from the maid's hand and wiped the blood off her face.

Mo Li was secretly resentful, and after calling her a stupid woman, he could only keep silent.

After Qu Xinzhu wiped his face, she looked at the injuries on his body, feeling distressed and angry, "Li, the Third Prince treated you like this, what are you going to do?"

"After all, he is my third elder brother, and we are brothers. If it was any other matter, I would have turned a blind eye and let it go. But what happened tonight, it is obvious that he wants to kill me. If I continue to swallow my anger as I did in the past, I'm afraid I'll face a more dangerous assassination next time." Mo Li looked heartbroken, but in fact he wanted Qu Xinzhu to inform Prime Minister Yu about this matter and let the Prime Minister come forward to resolve the matter.

Qu Xinzhu didn't understand what he meant. She felt unfair for him and cursed angrily, "The Third Prince seems to be a decent person, but I didn't expect him to be so cruel. Since he has been so cruel to you and wants to kill you, you should not be soft-hearted. Go and report the matter to His Majesty tomorrow and let him be punished."

"Forget it. Since he is so cruel, I will not be soft-hearted anymore. Tomorrow I will submit a memorial to report to my father about what happened tonight. As for how to punish him, it depends on my father's arrangement." A trace of pain flashed across Mo Li's face.

When Qu Xinzhu saw this, she felt even more distressed.

She has watched many palace fighting dramas, where women in the harem fight each other and princes from the previous dynasty also fight for the throne.

It is common for brothers to turn against each other for the sake of that supreme position.

Now she has traveled to this feudal dynasty and become a future princess. She and the man in front of her will rise and fall together. She naturally wants to help him conquer the world, so that she can also be the mother of the country and become the most noble woman in the world.

Qu Xinzhu is ambitious and believes that with the palace fighting dramas he has watched in modern times and the history he knows, he will be able to thrive in this feudal dynasty.

Since she has traveled through time, she wants to get the best things and the most honorable position.

She was thinking secretly in her heart, but her emotions were revealed on her face, and were clearly seen by the handsome man lying on the bed.

Mo Li was not angry but happy instead.

I'm not afraid of her being greedy, I'm afraid of her having no desires.

As long as she had something to ask for and stood on the same front with him, what would it matter if he gave her the throne?

After all, what kind of trouble can a woman cause?

Soon, the maid prepared the medicine and brought it up.

Qu Xinzhu personally picked it up and fed him the medicine.

"Li, drink the medicine quickly, and your injury will be healed."

Mo Li originally wanted to take the medicine by himself, but the other party insisted on feeding him the medicine.

He was angry but couldn't show it, so he could only open his mouth and swallow the medicine.

His expression remained unchanged as he took the bitter medicine.

After drinking a bowl of medicine, Mo Li ordered the guests to leave. "Zhu'er, it's getting late. You should go back and rest. There are maids here to take care of me. You don't need to worry."

"How can that be? The maid is clumsy, she can't take care of you as well as I can. Besides, I want to accompany you well. We haven't been as harmonious as we are today for many days." Qu Xinzhu said with a trace of grievance on her face.

She recalled the cold war between them before. Mo Li's lukewarm attitude towards her made her very sad.

Mo Li's eyebrows jumped. Seeing that she was bringing up the past, he quickly said apologetically, "Zhu'er, it was all my fault before. I was also upset at that time, so it was inevitable that I would vent my anger on you. Here, I apologize to you and hope to get your forgiveness, Zhu'er."

"Hmph! You forgive me just because you say so? Then what about the suffering I've endured during this period?" Qu Xinzhu pouted and turned her face away.

Mo Li had a terrible headache. He was already seriously injured. After drinking the medicine, he felt sleepy, but he still had to coax this unreasonable woman.

Although he was unwilling in his heart, his expression was full of doting, "Zhu'er, how do you want me to apologize?"

He reached out and held her hand, pressing it gently.

Qu Xinzhu's heart moved. The two of them had not had physical contact for many days, and a layer of desire could not help but appear in his eyes.

She threw him a coquettish look with a hint of shyness and resentment, but the handsome man lying on the bed felt his heart tighten.

"Zhu'er, I am seriously injured and I am powerless. Let's wait for some time after I have recovered from my injuries, and then we can..." Mo Li was seriously injured and had to refuse politely.

Qu Xinzhu showed a hint of embarrassment on his face, and said in a way that was a bit too much, "What are you thinking about? I just want to accompany you."

"That was my fault. I will apologize to Zhu'er." Mo Li breathed a sigh of relief.

The two of them started chatting happily.

Before they knew it, it was late at night. Qu Xinzhu, who had been with him for half the night, yawned sleepily, but Mo Li had already fallen asleep.

She glanced around and saw no place to stay.

She went out, gave the maid a few instructions, and went back to the yard to rest.

As soon as she left, she saw the guard and the maid at the door looking at each other.

The maid walked in carefully carrying the tea.

Coming to the bed, the maid placed the tea on the cabinet beside her, but her eyes were fixed on the handsome man lying on the bed.

Upon closer inspection, one can see that his body is covered with a layer of faint white light.

Wherever the white light covered, the small wounds on the skin healed quickly, and the more serious wounds were also repairing themselves.

Such a strange sight shocked the maid greatly. She quickly suppressed the shock in her heart and retreated calmly.

The handsome man lying on the bed knew nothing about this and was sleeping soundly.

In a corner of the palace, a maid was reporting truthfully to a man in black.

The man in black understood, jumped up and flew away.
