Chapter 516: The Princess Who Was Widowed Early (9)

"I just need food and ointment." Shi Ding looked into the old housekeeper's eyes, trying to tell him the importance of this matter. The old housekeeper noticed the desire in her eyes, was shocked, and quickly lowered his head and nodded.

Abandoned Palace.

Gu Changfeng applied the ointment she gave him yesterday, and felt that the effect was remarkable. Many of the wounds on his body had changed. The wounds that had been oozing pus and swelling seemed not as uncomfortable as before, and they had even shrunk a lot.

He had eaten all the food he had stored long ago, and had been looking for an opportunity to sneak out of the imperial kitchen to eat, but he went out to look several times and saw palace servants walking on the palace road outside. He didn't want to be beaten again, so he planned to endure the hunger and wait until it was later before going out.

This wait lasted more than four hours.

He had just shrunk to the door of the abandoned palace when he heard footsteps coming towards him. He quickly turned around and ran back to his hiding place.

No matter who came, he didn't expect it, because he didn't want to be beaten again. He was already afraid of the stones, sticks, and sharp knives that would fall on him like meteors...

"Where are you?" It was her! A look of joy appeared on his face. Just as he was about to run out, he thought of the betrayed trust he had given to others, and his steps back.

When Shi Yi found him, he was curled up in a pile of straw that had been deposited for many years and had begun to rot. His facial features and limbs could not be seen. He was like a ball, half buried in the straw.

"Are you hungry?" Shi Yi shook out everything hidden in his sleeves, picked up the pancake and began to tempt him, "This is a meat pancake that was just baked today. The meat is fresh pork with 50% fat and 50% lean. It is fat but not greasy, tender and delicious, and served with chopped green onions..."

Before she finished speaking, Gu Changfeng couldn't help but jump to her side and snatched the pancake into his hand.

"Delicious, delicious, really delicious." Gu Changfeng bit the pancake in big mouthfuls, as if someone was trying to snatch it from him.

"Eat slowly, eat slowly." Shi Yi patted his back gently and said softly, "No one is competing with you, eat slowly, there is still plenty, be careful not to get too full."

Gu Changfeng swallowed the last bite of the cake in his hand and looked at the ground anxiously. Sure enough, there was food all over the floor. He picked them up one by one and hugged them in his arms. He retreated to the farthest place from her and said vigilantly, "Who are you? Why are you so nice to me? Do you have any purpose?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Yi chuckled, his eyelids fluttered up and down, and whispered, "What do you think I can take from you? Identity? Your identity is known to everyone in the harem. Status? I'm afraid you don't even dare to think about it."

"Are you pitying me?" Gu Changfeng's eyes were red. For the first time, he felt that the contempt of words was more painful than the wounds on his body.

"Pity you?" Shi Yi chuckled again, "What do you have that deserves my pity? It is the happiest thing that you are still alive and well here now."

Many years later, Gu Changfeng's memory has begun to decline, but he still remembers the expression on her face when she said this. And it won't be long before he understands what she meant.

"I don't want to see you anymore." Because of what she said, he felt that the wound that had begun to heal on his body suddenly hurt again.

"What are you thinking about?" Shi Yi's hand gently brushed his hair, and her voice was gentle and melodious, "I told you the reason a long time ago. You forgot it yourself, and you blame me."

"When did you..." Gu Changfeng suddenly remembered a scene that had happened before, and she did answer his question.

"I was asked by an old friend." Shi Yi stretched out her hand to wipe the pancake crumbs off his face, and said casually: "I'm going to the enclosure to hunt tomorrow, and I don't know when I will come to see you again."

She was sure that he would remember every word she said.

When he lowered his head, Gu Changfeng's eyes rolled twice. Enclosure? Those who can go there are the most noble people in the royal family, and the emperor's most favored people. So what is her identity, is she the emperor's daughter or concubine?

The enclosure is not too far from the palace. If he can follow the palace's motorcade out, perhaps he can get the answer.

Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Shi Yi pushed his arm, "What are you thinking about? You are not thinking about how to get in, are you? Don't think about it. Tomorrow, the most powerful guards in the palace will protect you the whole time. Not even a fly can fly in."

Gu Changfeng was more determined to hear her say this. He did what others couldn't do. Doesn't this prove that he is better than others?

He didn't show it on his face, and said timidly: "Of course I dare not."

He was worried that if she guessed his thoughts and asked someone to lock him up here, he would really not be able to get out.

"Stay in the palace and take care of yourself. The food and medicine here are enough for you for half a week. I will send them to you when I come back." Shi Yi patted the dust off his body.

The environment here is harsh, with spider webs everywhere, and rats crawling on the collapsing beams from time to time. The whole space exudes a musty smell. It is really hard for him to stay here for more than ten years.

"Okay." He hugged the things in his arms tightly, and made up his mind to start preparing to leave tonight.

He has been staying in the palace since he was born, and has never set foot in the world outside the palace. For him, it is also an irresistible temptation. Shi

Yi walked out of the abandoned palace and stopped for a while as usual to see that there was no one around before walking to the palace road.

She came here today to visit the pregnant concubine in the palace. She made up an excuse to relieve herself to get here, and now she naturally has to finish her business.

Chunhui Palace.

"Why are you here today? Where is the strong wind? I want to know."

Concubine Shu came forward with her belly bulging. Shi Yi hurriedly supported her and said, "You are heavy, so be careful. It is convenient for me to enter and exit the palace. If you are willing, I can come to visit you at any time."

At the same time, Shi Yi waved his hand, and the maid behind him hurriedly presented the prepared gifts to the female official in charge of the palace with both hands.

Concubine Shu gave the female official a look, and the female official understood and took the things away. Shi Yi didn't show it in his eyes. It was very difficult for women in the harem to get pregnant, so there would be more concerns if they were pregnant.

"I'm sorry to make you laugh." Concubine Shu took the lead and led her to sit in the upper seat.

She had been very cautious since she became pregnant. She would collect all the gifts sent by other palaces and concubines and put them in the side hall, and would not touch them at all. The gifts sent by the eldest princess were no exception. Although they had a close relationship before.
