Chapter 398 The Socially Horrible Princess and Her Secret Guards 22
*
Changle Palace was quiet, and it seemed that the palace servants had been temporarily dismissed to prevent Rong Jin's identity from being discovered.
After Yun Wu finished washing up, she wanted to send Rong Jin back to the side hall next door.
"Go back and rest. I won't tell anyone your identity, but you can't be with me like you used to be..."
The petite princess in her moon-white nightgown stammered and gestured at the bed twice.
She didn't ask Rong Jin whether he had found out the truth and who the real murderer was, but before that she would definitely keep Rong Jin's secret.
In order to prevent him from encountering any misfortune before finding out the truth, with her around, no one can bully him.
"Okay, okay, I'm sleepy and I'm going to bed."
Yun Wu spoke in a hesitant voice, then turned around and waved to Rong Jin behind her, then walked towards the bed.
She was thinking that now that his status was different, how could he stay in her bedroom like before?
Moreover, after knowing Rong Jin's big secret and background, Yun Wu felt that she still needed to digest it.
Unexpectedly, the next second, she was picked up by Rong Jin behind her, and he calmly carried her to the bed.
"Put me down now! I can go to bed by myself. I am brave now and I am not afraid anymore."
Yun Wu swayed her feet twice, and then was held by Rong Jin and lay on the bed, covered with soft bedding.
"I'm not bullying you. I just want to be with you like before. I'm afraid you'll hate me because of this..."
Rong Jin said in a low voice, his handsome eyes slightly drooping revealing a bit of loneliness, and he raised his hands and gently hugged Yun Wu.
He seems a bit pitiful...
Yun Wu's expression was somewhat moved, but she still didn't have the heart to push him.
She glared at him angrily, then lay on her side facing him, staring at him without blinking with her beautiful eyes.
"I'm just staring at you. Don't touch me. Huh."
Yun Wu kept staring at Rong Jin, but Rong Jin really didn't seem to have any intention of bullying her. He closed his eyes and looked like he was sleeping.
The night was quiet, Yun Wu blinked and continued to stare at Rong Jin.
She suddenly felt that after Rong Jin put on men's clothes, he seemed... quite handsome and good-looking.
"Rong Jin..."
Yun Wu called out tentatively. The man had a good-looking profile and his breathing was steady. It seemed that he was asleep.
She bravely reached out her hand and carefully touched Rong Jin's high nose bridge, then touched her own nose for comparison.
Yun Wu reached out and carefully poked Rong Jin's arm muscles, then bravely pinched his nose, and then let go.
"Sleeping like a pig, hehehe..."
She chuckled and tilted her head, looking a little teasing.
"No matter how you look at it, I was the one who suffered the most last night. If I don't take advantage of the situation, I'd be a bastard. Humph..."
Yun Wu's voice was soft and cunning as she recalled the scenes in the pages of the fire avoidance map that she had peeked at that day.
Then he followed suit and stretched out his claws to touch the collar of Rong Jin's clothes.
As a result, the man reached out and grabbed her slender wrist.
Yun Wu raised her head in a daze and met Rong Jin's deep eyes.
"Princess, can't you sleep?"
Rong Jin asked in a deep voice, with a hint of smile in his eyes.
Yun Wu smiled awkwardly, then withdrew her hand and explained with a guilty conscience:
"I just reached out my hand accidentally, really..."
Before she could finish her words, the man pulled her into his arms, and her nostrils were filled with his pleasant cool fragrance.
Rong Jin's face was really good-looking, and Yun Wu was almost dazed by it. His eyes were particularly deep, and he whispered in Yun Wu's ear:
"Then let's discuss this further..."
"what?"
Yun Wu was still a little unresponsive, but she soon understood how the discussion was going.
……
At the middle of the night, Rong Jin, who had already changed into his nightgown, sat beside the bed and carefully covered Yun Wu with the quilt.
He sat on the edge of the bed with love in his eyes. He lowered his head and touched Yun Wu's forehead with restraint.
He really likes Awu and wants to be with her for the rest of his life.
"Awu must like me too, right?"
Rong Jin's voice was deep as he held Yun Wu's hand and pressed it against his cheek.
He was very happy today. He had removed the effects of the medicine for Yun Wu last night. He was afraid that Yun Wu would dislike and hate him because of this, but fortunately, his Ah Wu was so cute.
He knew that she liked him, too, but she just said one thing and meant another.
So Rong Jin now has to leave the palace to do something, something to settle the grudge.
"Once I have restored my identity, I will be qualified to be with you openly."
Rong Jin had a faint smile on his face, and he tilted his head to kiss the palm of her hand.
"Awu, are you willing to let me marry into the princess's mansion and eat free meals?"
What he said was "marrying into the wife's family", because no matter what his background was, Awu would always have the highest status, and he was the one who paid for it.
"Awu agreed without saying anything."
Rong Jin's voice sounded somewhat happy, and he carefully put Yun Wu's hand back into the quilt.
Rong Jin's original plan was to seduce her slowly. He did not want to obtain a distinguished status and life after restoring his identity.
He just wanted to avenge the Si family and then go to a remote place to live a simple life.
But Yun Wu's appearance brought some hope to his dull days of searching for the truth.
He didn't want to lure him slowly any further, nor did he want to secretly plot to kill the Prince of Jin and then walk away.
He wanted everyone who had participated in the Si family tragedy to die miserably, and he wanted the whole world to know about it.
He wanted to live an upright life, restore his identity, and stay by Awu's side...
When Rong Jin returned to the side hall, Bai Zhu and two secret guards were already waiting.
"Young Master, everything is ready. Prince Xiao and the second daughter of the Lin family are returning to the capital to discuss the marriage. Prince Jin is still outside the city and is about to return."
Bai Zhu raised his hands and bowed, his hands trembling slightly, as if he had waited for this day for too long.
Rong Jin was wearing a nightgown, tall and with a stern face. He tied the sword that Bai Shu presented to him around his waist.
That was the sword his father, General Si, used to kill enemies in battle. Now it can be restarted...

The next morning, Yun Wu slept very soundly, with only her little head sticking out of the quilt. She was woken up by Fennel who came in.
Ever since the princess was drugged the night before, Fennel hasn't entered the bedroom, because she knew the secret that Rong Jin was a man, but she couldn't speak it out casually.
The palace was closed and the secret was announced to the public that the princess had caught a cold. The emperor, who was busy with government affairs, even sent people to inquire about the situation, and the secret was almost exposed.
Today, Fennel heard no noise from inside when she was outside, so she bravely went in to look for the princess.
Yun Wu woke up in a daze and saw Hui Xiang kneeling on the bed crying loudly.
"Princess, you are finally awake. I didn't expect Rong Jin to take advantage of you. I have been threatened by him for the past two days and can't even get close to the bedroom. It's hard for you, princess...."
