Chapter 80: Pampering 1

As soon as he finished speaking, the little man in front of him trembled.

Only then did Xie Junyao realize that it was because his voice was too loud that scared her.

He immediately softened his tone and said to her, "Don't be afraid. I'm not trying to be mean to you."

Wen Wanyu looked up at him, revealing her small earlobes as white as jade. Her apricot eyes reflected the watery color and she nodded obediently.

Li Dexian was shocked. After all, it was Concubine Ling. Only in front of Concubine Ling could he see such a gentle side of the emperor. Today, his little heart was pounding non-stop because of fear.

Xie Junyao looked at the imperial physician again, suppressing his anger: "When will she be able to recover her memory?"

His anger at this moment could set the entire palace on fire.

The doctor glanced at Wen Wanyu, who secretly drew the number 'three'. The doctor's voice was also uncertain: "About, three years?"

Wen Wanyu vomited blood.

Cheng Shuyi was speechless.

Sighing, he still had to look at her. She pretended to be thoughtful and said, "Your Majesty, when I was still outside the palace, there were many cases among the people who suffered amnesia due to hitting their heads. Generally speaking, their memory can be restored within three months."

Wen Wanyu nodded with satisfaction.

Xie Junyao breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

Li Dexian hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "Your Majesty, you have an early court tomorrow. Why don't you get some rest?"

The person on the bed rolled her eyes. "Your Majesty, please go and rest. Shuyi will accompany me... I, your concubine, will be fine."

Wen Wanyu is very satisfied with her acting skills.

Xie Junyao turned to look over. He knew Wanwan was afraid of him and wanted him to leave quickly. Between him and Cheng Shuyi, Wanwan had given up on him without hesitation...

He said nothing.

Cheng Shuyi said calmly, "Yes, Your Majesty, you have to attend the court early tomorrow. Please go and rest first. I will guard you here."

"Never mind...that's fine."

Xie Junyao gave a few more instructions and left Chang Lixuan.

Wen Wanyu moved to the side, lifted a corner of the quilt, and patted the empty space, "Come!"

Cheng Shuyi lay down and covered herself with the quilt. It was as if she had returned to a few years ago, when they had both entered the palace and talked all night long on the same bed.

Cheng Shuyi smiled and said, "How did you come up with the idea of ​​amnesia?"

Wen Wanyu smiled: "I didn't think too much about it at the time. Firstly, it was to let their guard down, and secondly, it was because of the emperor."

Cheng Shuyi looked at her and said, "Since there are witnesses and physical evidence, why don't you just expose Lin Fenyi? What if she still wants to find another opportunity to attack?"

Wen Wanyu had considered this. However, a seemingly ordinary jade bracelet and her testimony alone were insufficient to convict her. Even if she were convicted, the Emperor would likely give her a lighter sentence, considering Lin Fenyi's family background and Concubine Wan's status.

Siyun couldn't die in vain, nor could she be injured in vain. To be on the safe side, she wanted to give it another try.

She told Cheng Shuyi her thoughts.

Cheng Shuyi lowered his eyes for a few moments, thought for a few moments, and nodded, "Then you must be extremely careful during this period. I will propose to the emperor to add a round of guards to Chang Lixuan. At the same time, I will try my best to accompany you all the time."

Wen Wanyu rubbed his head against her: "Why are you so nice, Shuyi."

"But you don't have to stay with me all the time. I don't want you to be involved. I don't want to see you get hurt. I can deal with Lin Fenyi alone."

Cheng Shuyi pretended not to hear and ignored it, bringing the subject back to the topic, "You just said it was because of the Emperor. Why is that?"

Wen Wanyu lowered her eyes and said calmly, "I always feel that the emperor is deliberately being cold to me..."

"But I see that the emperor cares about you very much..."

"That happened today." Wen Wanyu shook her head, her eyes meeting hers. "A few days ago, he had Concubine Xuanjin attend to his bed for three consecutive days, and he didn't come to Changlixuan for three consecutive days. In the past, this was very unusual."

Not to mention, she could see the emperor's slight dislike for Concubine Jin. Concubine Jin was only summoned once a month, probably out of respect for Minister Shen, but a few days ago, it was three days in a row. It was too abnormal.

It seems that the attempt to cover up something only makes it more obvious.

The Emperor rescued her from the Empress Dowager of Shoukang Palace, brought her back to Changlixuan, and released her from house arrest, but he stopped visiting her. What else could this be but indifference?

That's why Wen Wanyu came up with the trick of "fake amnesia".

Cheng Shuyi's eyes suddenly dimmed, and he slowly said, "Wen Wanyu, you can't be..."

"Hmm? It can't be anything?"

Cheng Shuyi was obviously not in a good mood, and said in a bland tone: "Are you tempted?"

"I admit that the Emperor is a little handsome, and he treats you well and protects you. But...but he is the Emperor."

Turning to look at Cheng Shuyi, Wen Wanyu uttered an "ah" a beat late, then chuckled: "What and what?!"

Wen Wanyu explained softly, "Shuyi, perhaps you could understand it as 'When you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head'?"

Cheng Shuyi's eyes suddenly lit up: "So!"

"Um!"

…

The dark night seemed to paint the sky with endless thick ink. Only a single light shone from the side hall of Bingquan Palace.

Lin Fenyi was applying nail polish with great interest.

Liu Yue hurriedly went into the room and closed the door. The sound of the door closing was not loud, but it was particularly obvious in the silent night. Lin Fenyi's hand trembled and the nail polish was wiped out.

She frowned: "What makes you so flustered?"

Liu Yue said: "My lady, Concubine Ling..."

Lin Fenyi thought it was Wen Wanyu's body that was fished out, and asked disapprovingly, "What happened to Concubine Ling?"

"No, Concubine Ling is not dead. I heard she has woken up. The Emperor just came out of Changlixuan and is now back in Chengqian Palace."

Lin Fenyi raised her head abruptly upon hearing this, her expression tense, and she was instantly stunned: "She woke up? Doesn't she know how to swim? How could this happen? How could this happen?"

She wasn't dead, she was actually awake. Lin Fenyi's body was icy cold, her heartbeat had almost stopped, and she was speechless.

"How could this happen? She was clearly struggling in the water, and she wasn't even moving in the water."

This matter was so well planned, yet it was exposed.

Lin Fenyi's expression suddenly changed. Had she been lying to her all along? Had Siyun also been lying to her?

Lin Fenyi's palms were sweating, and her nail polish slipped to the ground. Her eyes were fierce: "What about Siyun? Is Siyun dead?"

Liu Yue shook her head: "I don't know. The servants at Chang Lixuan are very tight-lipped. I finally managed to find out that Concubine Ling has woken up."

Don't panic, don't panic.

As long as it's not the last moment, there will be a turning point.
