The Queen Mother jumped from the tower, and His Majesty was reborn with fear

Qingyu reacted immediately after hearing this. She looked at Yu Jinzhi and said, "I will go find His Majesty right away."

"No need." Yu Jinzhi stopped him in a gentle voice.

Qingyu couldn't understand: "Why? It's going to rain soon. If the county lord keeps kneeling here, he will be sick again tomorrow."

"Isn't this good?" Yu Jinzhi always spoke gently and seemed to have no aggression, which made people feel distressed.

"Princess..." Qingyu wanted to say a few more words of advice.

"Even if you don't make a special trip to see His Majesty, he will know about this." Yu Jinzhi replied.

Qingyu felt distressed, but there was nothing she could do.

In the past two years, the princess has suffered a lot of grievances. When she was first brought into the palace by His Majesty, the princess went against His Majesty every day, so she suffered a lot and endured a lot of suffering.

His Majesty's attitude towards the princess was incomprehensible to everyone. If he liked her, why would he imprison her without any name or status? If he hated her, why would he go to so much trouble to keep her by his side?

At first, because of Xie Yuxiu's unclear attitude, the people in the palace did not dare to act rashly. But gradually, they seemed to realize that Xie Yuxiu had no feelings for the princess, so they began to become powerful.

The former princess was the darling of the whole capital, the daughter of an important official, favored by the Queen Mother, and the Crown Princess appointed by the previous emperor. Such a person was brought down to earth in an instant, and at this time, everyone wanted to step on her.

During the time in the palace, Yu Jinzhi was bullied by almost everyone. And Xie Yuxiu... how could he not know all this? But he seemed to acquiesce to it every time.

Maintenance? Very little...

In his previous life, Xie Yuxiu was filled with resentment when he brought Yu Jinzhi into the palace for the first year, so he did not pay much attention to the injustice she suffered in the palace.

Later, Yu Jinzhi was probably tortured beyond recognition and almost lost her life several times. Only then did Xie Yuxiu start to protect her.

Later, Yu Jinzhi's serious illness made Xie Yuxiu panic. It was because of this that she finally began to pay attention to everything about Yu Jinzhi.

At that time, almost everyone in the entire palace knew that Yu Jinzhi could not be touched. No matter how much Xie Yuxiu punished her, no one else could touch her.

Jiayu Palace

Just as he said, Xie Yuxiu had been waiting for her to come back in the palace. He had actually been prepared for Yu Jinzhi's late return. After all, they hadn't seen each other for a long time, so it was normal for them to feel reluctant to let her go.

He didn't think of making a fuss about it. But... at this time, the palace gate should have been locked, and she still hadn't appeared.

Xie Yuxiu began to get impatient. People who are used to being in control of everything will always lose their minds when they occasionally lose control.

"Where are the people?" Xie Yuxiu's face was gloomy.

He tolerated Yu Jinzhi's late return, but that didn't mean he would tolerate her forgetting the time and not coming back. Whether in the previous life or this life, he had no patience.

Yu Jinzhi, please don't lie to me in the end, otherwise... I'm not sure I can still control my emotions.

"Someone come here!" Xie Yuxiu had lost what little patience he had.

The palace maids around "Your Majesty" came over and waited.

"Go..." Xie Yuxiu immediately prepared for them to catch someone, but just before he opened his mouth for a word, someone hurried over from outside.

"Your Majesty!" The palace maid immediately knelt down, not daring to even raise her head.

"The princess has returned, but... just now in the Imperial Garden, the princess bumped into Concubine Jia, so Concubine Jia punished her to kneel in the Imperial Garden..." The palace servants trembled as they said these words, fearing that their heads would fall off.

Xie Yu's eyes flickered slightly, and the depression in his heart slowly subsided.

"Let's go to the Imperial Garden." Xie Yuxiu closed his eyes and adjusted his emotions.

"Yes." The palace maids were also sweating profusely. After all, this master had always been moody.

In the Imperial Garden, Yu Jinzhi had been kneeling for half an hour, and now it was starting to rain. The rain came very fast, so it soon became a downpour.

Qingyu had asked someone to get an umbrella and was now planning to use one for Yu Jinzhi.

"No need to hold an umbrella." Yu Jinzhi refused directly.

"Princess, the rain is too heavy. You are weak and you won't be able to bear kneeling for too long." Qingyu's face was full of heartache.

"Isn't it good to be sick?" Yu Jinzhi murmured to himself.

If she got sick, she wouldn't have to deal with Xie Yuxiu anymore. She was very tired, she wanted to rest, and... she didn't want to kneel here for so long.

Qingyu's persuasion was futile and finally she had no choice but to give up.

Seeing the increasingly heavy rain, she was anxious. Why hadn't His Majesty come yet? Was he not coming?

The princess had been bullied many times before, but His Majesty had only come a few times. Would he really care? If His Majesty didn't care, the princess would kneel here for a whole night and get wet in the rain all night. Her body really couldn't stand it.

On the other hand, Yu Jinzhi seemed to have no emotions, like a sculpture, quietly enduring everything.

At this moment, the footsteps in the distance became clearer and clearer, and Yu Jinzhi slowly raised his head and looked over.

"Your Majesty!" Qingyu was overjoyed and saluted immediately.

Xie Yuxiu stood in the rain, and the palace maid beside him held an umbrella for him, fearing that this ancestor would be wetted by a single drop of rain.

He was high above, and she... was like an ant. With the status of an emperor like this, Yu Jinzhi knew that she had no power to resist.

He approached step by step, and Yu Jinzhi lowered her head again, until the black gilded dragon robe appeared before her eyes.

"What are you kneeling here for?" Xie Yuxiu asked knowingly.

"The order from Concubine Jia..." Yu Jinzhi was like an abandoned kitten, all wet.

She just knelt on the ground, letting the cold rain hit her body. She was shivering, and her thin figure made people feel that she would faint at any moment.

Xie Yuxiu felt a slight pain in his chest. In his previous life, it was raining like this when Yu Jinzhi jumped off the city wall...

He felt resentful in his heart. He resented why she would do such an extreme thing, and resented why she actually had the guts to abandon him to loneliness in the future.

But... he seemed to be the person who should not be blamed the most, because it seemed that such an ending was also forced by himself.

Xie Yuxiu struggled in his heart, and his hands under his sleeves tightened and loosened, loosened and tightened again. Finally, he stretched out his hand to Yu Jinzhi: "Get up."

Yu Jinzhi looked at the hand stretched out towards her and did not react for a moment.

"I asked you to get up." Xie Yuxiu emphasized his tone.

Yu Jinzhi didn't delay any longer. She placed her hand on Xie Yuxiu's palm and prepared to stand up. But she really had no strength left. Her legs hurt so much and she felt dizzy...
