"Thank you so much."
The emperor lowered his eyes indifferently. He certainly did not lack this little money. He did not refuse because he did not want to cause himself more trouble.
At worst, I can just go back to this girl when I see her again.
Every time his whereabouts were discovered by the Regent, it was only a matter of time before he was caught, so he learned to be smart. Once discovered, he would just follow him back obediently and leave it for next time.
But this time, because of the girl in front of him, it was obvious that the Regent had been gotten rid of.
If you don't run now, when will you run?!
The emperor didn't want to care about whether she was a goddess or not. He simply packed up his things and walked out of the yard in two steps.
But he didn't know why, when he pushed open the fence door, his steps involuntarily paused for a moment. When he turned around, he saw a pretty girl standing in the yard.
With a sweet smile in her eyes, she waved at him from a distance without moving a step.
Such a simple scene, against the backdrop of the setting sun, is as beautiful as a painting.
If Afu were still alive, she would probably be like this girl, so beautiful and full of vitality.
A figure emerged in his mind. The emperor lowered his eyes with a hint of loneliness. He didn't even notice Lin Chunhuan's beauty. He turned around and left without any hesitation.
Although he knew that beauty alone might not be of much use to a figure like the emperor, now that he had tried it, although Lin Chunhuan felt helpless, he could still accept it.
It seems that she has no choice but to use another method.
"Hey! Girl! Monk... Monk, please come back soon!"
Widow Zhang was a loud-mouthed woman with a hot temper. There was always a lot of gossip surrounding her. Moreover, although Widow Zhang was no longer young, she still had some good looks.
If she doesn't act more aggressively, she, a woman, will have a hard time surviving in this world.
Thanks to her boldness and loud voice, Widow Zhang's shout directly called back the emperor who had already walked a short distance away. The anxiety in her tone did not seem fake.
Although he had no thoughts about love between men and women, adhering to the compassion of Buddhist monks, the emperor hurried back before entering the yard.
Widow Zhang was seen holding the unconscious Lin Chunhuan in the yard, shouting anxiously.
"Oh, little monk, you're finally back. This girl has been taking care of you all these days and hasn't taken care of herself at all. You can't just ignore her!"
Widow Zhang's shout attracted the attention of passers-by outside.
The emperor's face flushed crimson.
This guy is really something. When did I say I don’t care? Why is he shouting so loudly?
The emperor walked forward angrily and was about to explode when he noticed an abnormal redness on Lin Chunhuan's cheeks. It was obvious that she had a high fever!
He immediately ignored the strict rules between men and women and placed his palm against his forehead. The heat was so frightening that the emperor immediately withdrew his hand, "How can it be so hot!"
"What are you talking about?"
Widow Zhang had no idea who was in front of her. She thought he was just a monk and rolled her eyes as she spoke. "You got a fever the moment you arrived. The medicine you drank didn't help at all."
"This girl took care of you, she stayed up all night, fanning you without taking off her clothes. She was already ill, but she also stayed by your side all night long. Isn't that why she ended up like this?"
Widow Zhang's words left the emperor speechless.
In fact, he couldn't understand why this woman was so nice to him when they were just casual acquaintances.
Could it be that the dream he had was real?
Does this woman really have a destined marriage with him?
An inexplicable strange feeling rose in her heart. Before the emperor could ask any more questions, Widow Zhang spoke like pouring water, "It's because she felt guilty that she had hurt you by taking you swimming!"
"If you ask me, we women shouldn't be too kind. If you're a grown man like me and you really don't want to swim, how can a skinny, weak woman like her force you?"
"In the end, you, little monk, recovered from your illness, patted your clothes and left without a care in the world about the life or death of the girl..."
"Alright!" The emperor grew impatient as Widow Zhang continued to chatter. "You've lived an unhappy life yourself, but you can't assume that all women in the world are like you."
"I never said I didn't care about her, but you, why are you trying to sow discord here?"
Widow Zhang was stunned by the shouting.
Before he could come to his senses, the emperor had already picked up Lin Chunhuan and placed him on the bed where he woke up. Before he could cover him with a quilt, Lin Chunhuan had already opened his eyes in a daze.
Her high fever was real.
But of course it wasn't because of taking care of the emperor.
In Hongxiu Tower, she encountered difficult and demanding guests, and sometimes she had to stay awake for several days in a row. However, the intensity of taking care of people was not enough to make her unable to bear it.
This high fever was caused by her taking advantage of Widow Zhang's sleep last night, pouring medicine, taking off her coat, and pouring basins of cold water on herself. She had stood in the wind and been blown by the cold wind for more than an hour.
The reason is that I felt dizzy today.
"Why are you back?"
The first time he saw the person, Lin Chunhuan didn't even ask about his own situation. He forced himself to sit up, tugging at the wrinkled monk's robe with his burning fingertips, "Didn't I tell you to leave quickly?"
"I've already given you all the money, why are you still coming back?!"
The emperor was so shocked by what he said that his breath stopped. He had never seen a woman who was so devoted to him that she would even disregard her own safety just because of a little guilt.
The emperor did not think this was love, but was just surprised by the kindness.
After helping Lin Chunhuan lie down again, he was silent for a long time before speaking: "Actually, those people are not that serious. I have ways to deal with them."
"But you, even though you're already so seriously ill, why do you still have the mind to care about others?"
"You're not someone else." After hearing this, Lin Chunhuan's tone became more serious. "If those people were originally fine, then if I dragged you into the water, I would have caused you even more harm."
"How can I live with myself if I can't see you safe and sound?"
The emperor sighed deeply. He felt that Widow Zhang was right in saying something. Sometimes, people really cannot be too kind, otherwise they will suffer too much.
"Well, you're seriously ill now. I'll go get you a doctor. Do you know any doctors you know?"
It was originally just a casual question, but after the words fell, the emperor noticed the loneliness in Lin Chunhuan's eyes and her forced smile.
Shaking his head slightly, Lin Chunhuan smiled and pursed his lips, "Thank you, little monk, but... no need. For someone like me, generally no doctor is willing to treat me."
"If you really want to, why not take me home?"
Someone like her? What kind of person?
