Chapter 57 Don't Leave Me

When Jin Yunzhi woke up, it was already late at night.

In the dim room, only the moonlight from outside the window slanted in.

Mottled leaves fell on the ground.

There was a layer of cold sweat on her forehead, and in her dream, she returned to the day when the country was destroyed.

The brothers and sisters were all lying in a pool of blood, lifeless.

The heads of his father, the emperor and his mother were hung on the city gate.

Throughout the palace, smoke was everywhere...

Jin Yunzhi hurriedly sat up and was about to get off the bed when he heard someone pushing the door open and entering.

The next moment, all the candles in the room lit up.

Xie Jiuyu came in from the door carrying a bowl of porridge.

His figure came from the darkness, slender and straight, with a deep outline.

The moment he got closer, his handsome face became clearer and clearer.

"Princess, let's have some porridge."

After lying there for so long, she didn't eat anything.

As soon as Jin Yunzhi woke up, she gradually came to her senses. All she could think of was Gu Xianqing's terrifying face. She trembled violently, stood up suddenly, and hugged Xie Jiuyu's waist!

He was startled, not expecting Jin Yun Zhi to do this, and the porridge bowl in his hand shook slightly.

Xie Jiuyu placed the porridge bowl on the bedside table, and his hands dropped to his sides. He didn't know whether to raise his hands or drop them.

Jin Yunzhi hugged Xie Jiuyu tightly, her cheek pressed against Xie Jiuyu's waist, "Ajiu, I'm afraid..."

She was afraid from the first moment she saw Gu Xianqing.

Afraid that the tragedy of destroying the country would be discovered again, and afraid that Gu Xianqing would break through the gate of Nanque again.

The only one she could rely on seemed to be Xie Jiuyu.

"Promise me you will never leave me, okay?" Jin Yunzhi choked softly. After she finished speaking, Xie Jiuyu's dark eyes dimmed.

He was stunned for a moment, and Jin Yunzhi raised her eyes. Under the candlelight, her eyes were filled with water. "Ajiu, promise me..."

Her voice was almost pleading.

Xie Jiuyu's fingertips hanging by his side trembled slightly. After a moment, he suddenly tightened his arms and hugged Jin Yunzhi tightly in his arms.

"Don't go."

"Promise, Your Highness Princess."

He responded in a deep voice, patting Jin Yunzhi's back soothingly with his palms.

It wasn't until Jin Yunzhi's mood gradually calmed down that he let go of her and said, "Princess, please have something to eat."

Jin Yunzhi's eyelashes trembled slightly and he looked at Xie Jiuyu blankly.

The look in his eyes was fragile, like a little rabbit wandering alone in the mountains. The tail of his eyes was red, and he was very pitiful.

Xie Jiuyu's eyes darkened, and he bent down to pick up the porridge bowl on one side.

Scoop it up with a spoon and bring it to Jin Yunzhi's lips.

Jin Yunzhi took it absentmindedly. She had no idea what she was doing, and she could only see the outline of Xie Jiuyu.

It wasn't until the warm touch came from her lips that she suddenly came back to reality, pursed her lips, and took the porridge bowl, "I, I will do it myself."

Jin Yunzhi sat obediently on the edge of the bed, sipping porridge in small sips.

Xie Jiuyu stood on one side, looking down at her.

Seeing that the porridge in the porridge bowl was almost bottomed out, Xie Jiuyu took the porridge bowl and whispered at the same time, "Princess, please sleep a little longer."

Jin Yunzhi looked up at him, silent for a moment, and then opened his lips, "Is he dead?"

Xie Jiuyu hesitated slightly, "Who is the princess asking about?"

"You know! Gu Xianqing, is he dead?" Jin Yunzhi's throat felt dry, and even mentioning his name was filled with hatred.

"He's not dead." Xie Jiuyu put the porridge bowl on the table not far away. "He was rescued by the military doctor."

"Now the eldest prince told the people in the military camp that it was Gu Xianqing who did something to hurt you, that's why you treated him like this when they met. Otherwise, the news that the Ninth Princess was arrogant and even killed innocent people indiscriminately would spread. Returning to Yanyun City will be detrimental to the princess’s reputation.”
