Chapter 27: Concubine (Part 4)



"You don't need to sleep?"

I thought I was made of iron.

Feng Shiwu nodded, his only exposed eyes filled with determination. "A secret guard's duty is to protect their master at all times. We cannot slack off even for a single minute."

Wanyue half-closed her eyes, looking extremely sleepy. "I command you to go to sleep."

Feng Shiwu was in a dilemma. He struggled for a long time, but finally obeyed Wanyue's words. He gently jumped to the side and lay down on the couch. "Yes, Master."

Well, that's good.

Wanyue nodded in satisfaction, yawned, turned around and climbed onto the bed.

As usual, Wanyue slept until noon the next day.

After searching the whole house, I still couldn't find Feng Shiwu.

Wanyue suspected she had just had a dream last night; she hadn't encountered any secret guard named Feng Shiwu...

As she thought this, Wanyue looked up involuntarily and met a pair of dark eyes.

“………”

It's so scary.

Wanyue reached out and patted her chest to calm her pounding heart.

"Fifteen, why are you up there again?"

Are there flowers on it?

"Master, I am a secret guard and I should stay in the dark to protect your safety."

Wanyue blinked, a strange expression on her face. "I think you should stop being a secret guard and become my personal guard..."

Every morning when she woke up and looked up to see this scene, she was afraid that she would be scared to death sooner or later.

She was afraid that she would not be able to enjoy the status of a secret guard.

Feng Shiwu leaped down from the beam and landed directly in front of Wanyue. "Everything is subject to the master's arrangements."

Wanyue looked up at the large black man in front of her and was suddenly surprised to find that he was so tall.

Wanyue sighed inwardly and turned her head away. Why did he grow so tall for no reason? Her neck was sore!

After deciding to transfer Feng Shiwu from the secret guard to the visible guard... oh no, a guard, Wanyue asked Xiuhe to clean up a side hall for Feng Shiwu to live in, right next to the main hall where Wanyue lived.

After arranging the accommodation, Wanyue asked Xiuhe to custom-make a few sets of clothes. She couldn't let her meet people wrapped in black cloth all the time, right?

After arranging this series of things, it was already afternoon.

Looking at the refreshed person in front of her, Wanyue expressed great satisfaction.

I didn’t expect that the secret guard sent by the male protagonist not only has a nice voice, but also looks so handsome.

"Fifteen, peel a lychee for me."

Wanyue lay on the couch, her slender fingers pointing at a plate of lychees on the table in front of her.

Feng Shiwu, who was standing next to her, squatted down silently and began to peel the lychees. Soon, a plate full of peeled lychees was placed in front of Wanyue.

Wanyue took it, held it in her arms and started eating it happily.

This is the correct way to open the Dark Guard~

A large plate of lychees was eaten by Wanyue in less than a moment. A light fruity fragrance filled the air in the hall, which was very pleasant.

In the silent atmosphere, the door of the hall was pushed open.

"Princess, this is bad."

Xiuhe came over hurriedly, "Concubine Mu was injured and was just sent back."

Wanyue jumped down from the couch and walked towards the door. Feng Shiwu followed without saying a word.

"What's going on?"

During this period of time, Wanyue and Mu Qingli's relationship has become better and better, and as a result, Xiuhe no longer hates Mu Qingli as much as before.

As soon as he heard the servants spread the news that Concubine Mu was injured, he hurried to find Wanyue.

"I don't know the specific circumstances, but I heard from the servants in the palace that he seemed to have been assassinated."

Assassination?

Didn't Mu Qingli say she was going to the palace to receive the reward for being the champion of the Wuchaohui? How could she be assassinated?

The group quickly arrived at the side hall where Mu Qingli lived, where many people were already gathered.

The Sixth Prince Feng Chen paced in the hall with a gloomy expression. Inside, a group of imperial doctors were surrounding the bed to treat Mu Qingli.

On the bed, Mu Qingli lay with her eyes closed. Her usually bright face looked too pale.

"What's going on? What happened to her?"

Feng Chen heard the voice and looked over. The coldness on his face had not yet faded away, and it made the person who was being hurt very uncomfortable.

Wanyue didn't care about all this. She just wanted to find out what was going on with Mu Qingli.

Feng Chen looked at Wanyue, his face expressionless. "Qing'er was attacked by an assassin and stabbed in the shoulder. The imperial physician said... the sword almost hit her heart."

When saying this, Feng Chen's voice was trembling.

After listening, Wanyue walked around Feng Chen, pulled out a chair and sat down, and at the same time picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of tea.

Feng Chen gritted his teeth at the sight of that indifferent look.

After finishing a cup of tea, Ruan Ling leaned back in her chair and said, "Don't look at me like that. I'm scared."

Feng Chen took a deep breath, trying to suppress his anger. "Lu Wanyue, Qing'er's life or death is uncertain. I don't ask you to share my worry, but could you please stop making sarcastic remarks here?"

Wanyue slumped in the chair, her fair face delicate and pretty. "Don't worry, Qing'er is fine. She's consumed so many of my precious supplements lately. Unless someone pierces her heart with a sword, she'll be fine."

The rare herbs that the original owner brought from Prince Ming's Palace were all good things. Mu Qingli had been eating them for so long that his body had become as strong as a calf.

For an injury of this degree, you'll be fine after a few days of bed rest.

Feng Chen looked at Wanyue with suspicion, obviously not believing what she said.

Wanyue glared at him unceremoniously.

You don't have anything good to give your woman, so you don't allow others to have it?

It's really strange!

The two stared at each other for a while. The imperial physician finished diagnosing Mu Qingli and came over with his medicine box on his back. "Sixth Prince, Sixth Princess, Concubine Mu is fine now. I'll prescribe some tonics for her. She just needs to rest in bed for a few days and she'll be fine."

What the imperial physician said was similar to what Wanyue had just said.

Feng Chen was a little surprised. He didn't expect that what this stupid woman said was actually true.

"Then I'll trouble you, Imperial Physician. I'll have someone take you back to the Imperial Hospital."

Feng Chen called a servant to escort the imperial physician out, and the people in the hall gradually left. Soon, only Wanyue, Feng Chen, Mu Qingli lying on the bed, and Feng Shiwu standing behind Wanyue were left inside.

Feng Chen glanced at Feng Shiwu who was standing behind Wanyue, his expression unreadable.

"I wonder if Princess is satisfied with this secret guard that the prince gave you?"

Wanyue glanced at Feng Chen, and that look made Feng Chen's face jump a little.

What's with that look on your face like you're looking at a psychopath?

Wanyue smiled but said nothing.

He usually calls her by her full name, but suddenly he calls her Princess... Isn't that just crazy?

This psychopath must be planning to harm her.
