“I’ve been unconscious for five days?” Shen Yijia hadn’t recovered from the joy of knowing that she and Song Jingchen were still alive. They didn’t need to be a ghost couple. She was then shocked by Song Jingchen’s next words.

She hurriedly checked and saw that there was indeed an additional drop of spiritual liquid in her body.

“Yes.” Song Jingchen lowered his eyes. “Mother said that you lost too much blood. It’s normal for you to sleep for a few more days.”

Ji Luo’s original words were that the situation was dangerous at that time. If they had arrived a moment later, this girl would never have woken up.

Shen Yijia glanced at Song Jingchen, thinking that he would take the opportunity to lecture her. Unexpectedly, he didn’t say anything and even thoughtfully placed a pillow behind her back.

Hearing this, Shen Yijia felt even more guilty.

She reached out and grabbed Song Jingchen’s sleeve. “Hubby, I…”

Shen Yijia did not know what to say. Most importantly, she did not think that she had done anything wrong.

If they turned back time, she would still do it!

“I know.” Song Jingchen sighed and turned around to bring a bowl of porridge from the table. “You’re hungry, right? I cooked longan and red date porridge. Have some first.”

Shen Yijia was stunned when she saw the bowl in his hand. He must have brought it with him when he came in just now.

It was impossible for her beautiful husband to know that she would wake up today.

That meant that he had prepared porridge at all times so she could eat it when she woke up.

In the five days she had been unconscious, her beautiful husband probably did not know how many pots of porridge he had cooked.

Thinking of this, Shen Yijia’s nose stung again. She threw herself into Song

Jingchen’s arms. “Hubby.”

Song Jingchen quickly took the bowl away and said helplessly, “You still want to cry?”

Shen Yijia paused. Previously, her beautiful husband had asked her if she wanted to cry. When she said yes, he…

She looked up and licked her dry lips. “Can I?” she asked hopefully.

“Can I cry? Can I still kiss you?” she thought.

Shen Yijia was very disappointed.

“Have some porridge first,” Song Jingchen added. He scooped up a spoonful of porridge, blew on it, and brought it to her mouth.

Shen Yijia’s eyes lit up and she opened her mouth obediently. “Alright, I’ll cry after eating the porridge.”

Song Jingchen was speechless.

“By the way, how’s the plague in the city?” she asked.

Song Jingchen said, “Mother’s prescription cured the plague. The people outside the city have also returned.”

The plague came fiercely, but as long as it was treated correctly, it would disappear quickly.

The bowl of porridge was quickly finished. Song Jingchen placed the bowl back on the table and helped her lie down.

Shen Yijia looked at him and still felt like she was in a dream. “I didn’t expect the rhinoceros horn to be so useful.”

If she had known earlier, she would have stolen it long ago. Why would her beautiful husband have to suffer so much?

Song Jingchen paused for a moment. Even Ji Luo couldn’t tell if it was because of Shen Yijia’s blood or if the rhinoceros horn was effective.

However, there was no need to tell Shen Yijia this, in case she wanted to bleed to save people in the future.

He tucked Shen Yijia in and sat down by the bed. “Rhinoceros horns are precious. It’s really lucky to encounter them.”

Something that even her husband felt was precious.

Shen Yijia rolled her eyes. “That scumbag got someone to steal such a precious thing from the treasure vault. Xuanyuan Qi didn’t punish him when he found out, right?”

“No, the emperor is not a petty person. Besides, it only takes a little bit of rhinoceros horn to make the medicine.”

Shen Yijia looked at him eagerly. “Have you returned the rest?”

How could Song Jingchen not tell that she was trying to act in her own self-interest again? He took off the pouch at his waist and handed it to her. “His Highness returned it, but I asked the king for some more.”

Instead of waiting for this girl to wake up and steal it, he might as well give up his pride and get it.

The pouch was the one Shen Yijia had given him.

Shen Yijia took it and poured out a sharp horn wrapped in a red string. There were obvious traces of friction at the tip. It should be the part that was used for medicine.

Shen Yijia sniffed it and was a little disappointed. “It doesn’t look any different from a bull’s horn.”

“Bull horns can’t cure the plague.” Song Jingchen chuckled and took the rhinoceros horn from her hand. He leaned over and brought it to Shen Yijia’s neck. Meeting her puzzled eyes, he explained, “I heard that the rhinoceros horn can exorcise evil and remove danger.”

Shen Yijia understood. She touched the friction at the tip of the horn and nodded in agreement. “We should indeed take good care of it. It saved our lives.”

Song Jingchen paused.

After saying that, Shen Yijia regretted it and quickly changed the topic. “What about the people I captured? Are they still alive?”

“Yes.” Seeing that she was angry, Song Jingchen continued, “Wang Dazhuang is dead. Jia Quan and Sun Ming were left behind by Ji Yunxi, so they had to die too. Bai Zhi was sent to the military camp as a military prostitute because she spread rumors. As for the others, their right hands were crippled and they were sentenced to three years of hard labor.”

The hundred or so people represented more than a hundred families. Because

of this plague, the citizens of Phoenix City were shaken.

If Xuanyuan Qi killed them all now, it would definitely make everyone panic.

Three years of hard labor was already the limit.

Shen Yijia was still a little angry. “It’s too easy on them to only cripple one hand.’

If she had known earlier, she would have thrown them all out of Full Moon Restaurant like Wang Dazhuang!

Song Jingchen thought further.

“Sometimes living isn’t necessarily a good thing,” he said.

After this incident, Song Jingchen also realized that it wasn’t always right to keep things from Shen Yijia because he felt that it was for her own good.

After all, no one knew what would happen the next day.

The world was unpredictable. There would always be times when he could not take care of it, so he should let her know about some dark sides.

“If those commoners want to survive, they have to rely on labor in exchange for remuneration. When they come out three years later, their reputation will be ruined and no one will dare to hire them. Since they’ve crippled their right hands, we can consider them half crippled. If their relatives are unkind, they will inevitably end up miserable in their later years.”

Song Dajiang and Madam Liu, who had been angered to death by Song Jiayue, were good examples.

Shen Yijia frowned and said uncertainly, “That shouldn’t be the case. They did that for their families.”

Song Jingchen sneered. “People change easily. Who knows?”

Before those things happened, didn’t Song Dajiang’s family also unite against the Song family?

They worked together to hurt them.

Shen Yijia found it a little unbelievable, but she also felt that Song Jingchen was right. Anyway, it was fine as long as she knew that they wouldn’t have an easy time in the future. She moved to the side of the bed and made way for him.

“Come up and sleep with me.”

Song Jingchen lay down beside her.

Shen Yijia rolled into his arms in satisfaction and grabbed his hand to play with.

After not hearing her speak for a long time, Song Jingchen found it strange. “Why didn’t you ask about Xuanyuan Ye?”

This was not like Shen Yijia.

“What’s there to ask? She’s definitely still acting like a high and mighty princess. Anyway, she has a lot of servants to serve her. She can do whatever she wants. Even if her right hand is crippled, it won’t affect her life.”

She might have even gone to the old woman to complain to her, wanting the old woman to punish her.

Seeing that she didn’t care, Song Jingchen’s heart ached as he hugged her tighter.

As the princess, she should be the one with a group of servants!

“No, she didn’t live well,” Song Jingchen said.

Now that everyone had been dealt with, how could he leave Xuanyuan Ye behind to be an eyesore to this girl?

Shen Yijia looked up at him, her eyes filled with interest.

Song Jingchen lowered his head and kissed her forehead. “Now that the citizens of Phoenix City know her background, she’s no longer a princess..”
