Chunyu pursed her lips, her eyes unconsciously lingering on her master's face.
They all have the same nose and a mouth, how come her mother is so beautiful!
Especially the blood last night, such a bright color, blooming like a rose on the lips, so breathtakingly beautiful, as if to take away one's soul!
No wonder the emperor ignored everything and stayed by the bed all night.
Chunyu muttered to herself, then looked up to meet her master's gaze and immediately continued, "The Emperor was terrified and ordered a thorough investigation by the Imperial Hospital. The result was that someone had put something in your cup, Your Majesty."
"The person behind this hasn't been found yet. Thankfully, your majesty is fine, but the emperor is furious."
Chunyu finished speaking without saying anything extra.
Lin Chunhuan, on the other hand, leaned relaxedly against the head of the bed. No wonder.
Although she couldn't drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, she was making a living in Hongxiulou after all. Even if her alcohol tolerance was poor, she wouldn't get drunk after just a few glasses of wine.
It turned out that something was added to the wine.
She couldn't help but chuckle, but the light in her eyes became brighter. It was only her first day, and someone couldn't help but attack her?
It seems that she has always been too careless.
Although there are not many people in the harem, there are many hidden attacks and tactics, and it is very ruthless.
"Your Majesty..." Chunyu looked a little hesitant. "Do you think we should summon the imperial physician again?"
"No, the emperor should be here soon. Help me up, change my clothes, and put on makeup."
Seeing her master changed into a bright dress and used rouge to cover up the paleness on her face, Chunyu didn't understand why. At this time, if she used her identity as a victim, she would definitely get more sympathy from the emperor.
For a concubine like Lin Chunhuan who has no background but holds a high position, this little bit of pity can play a big role!
But it seems that she has no intention of taking advantage of this matter.
Chunyu didn't understand, but she knew that her master didn't like people who talked too much, so she didn't ask any more questions. Lin Chunhuan naturally had no intention of explaining to her.
Hearing the song of courtesy outside announcing the emperor's arrival, she only adjusted her dress slightly and slowly stood up. Before she could even salute, she was helped up by the emperor. "Ah Huan, why are you up so quickly?"
The emperor's brows were filled with worry. As he stepped forward to help the man up, he carefully avoided Lin Chunhuan's hands. "The imperial physician said that although the medicine is not fatal, it is very harmful to the body."
"Your high fever has only subsided for two days, and now you've suffered another disaster. You should take a rest!"
When Lin Chunhuan heard this, a thick mist rose in her eyes before she spoke. She shook her head and knelt down in front of the emperor, bowing solemnly, "Your Majesty, please have mercy on me."
"Let this matter end here and not get any worse."
The emperor was stunned for a moment, then frowned and looked at Chunyu who also knelt down beside him.
However, Chunyu also had a look of confusion and shock on his face at this moment. It seemed that he also knew nothing. Then he turned his gaze back to Lin Chunhuan, "What are you doing?"
"Get up quickly!"
"If the emperor doesn't agree, I won't get up." Each word she spoke was weaker than the last, but her tone was incomparably firm. However, the mist in her eyes made it impossible to get angry. "Hongxiu Tower has the emperor's protection, and I am already very satisfied."
"I entered the palace with a grateful heart. I only wish Your Majesty a peaceful and smooth life. I really don't want the harem to be plagued by troubles because of my humble status. Please, Your Majesty, fulfill my selfish wish."
Although she spoke of it out of selfish motives, every word and sentence revealed her deep love for the emperor, and her earnest hope for harmony in the harem.
The emperor was stunned for a long time before he carefully helped Lin Chunhuan up. A flash of loneliness flashed in his eyes, "If only Afu had been half as sensible as you were back then."
"What did the Emperor say?"
Pretending not to hear clearly, Lin Chunhuan blinked and asked.
The emperor just smiled and shook his head, "Nothing, since my Ah Huan is so sensible, I will agree to your request."
"But this time, I will definitely not let you suffer in vain. I promise to end this matter, but you must not refuse my compensation."
Lin Chun smiled shyly, with his slender fingers touching the tip of his nose. He only held the emperor's sleeves tightly with his hands, as if he was really ignorant of the world.
This time, the emperor waited until the imperial physician came to check Lin Chunhuan's pulse and confirmed that the toxins in his body had been mostly cleared before he left reluctantly.
Not long after he left, a stream of rewards were brought into Changchun Palace.
Chunyu was very happy to see this.
As servants, the more successful their masters are, the better their lives will be. For concubines, the greatest success is to be favored.
"Your Majesty, let me choose a dress for you. Judging from the situation, the Phoenix Spring Grace Chariot must be coming to our Changchun Palace today!" Chunyu's face flushed with joy. "Originally, it was supposed to be yesterday..."
"Be careful with your words."
Lin Chunhuan raised her eyes and glanced at Chunyu, and successfully made the other party shut up. In the past two days, she used Gardenia to make an example of someone, and the effect was quite good.
"The first and fifteenth day of the lunar month are the days when the Emperor goes to Kunning Palace. This is a rule set by our ancestors. No nonsense is allowed. In the harem, no one can go past the Empress. Do you understand?"
Chunyu blushed, responded softly and then shut her mouth, not daring to say another word.
Lin Chunhuan chuckled, "Don't be nervous. I know you're different from Zhizi. You didn't serve the master before, so many of the things you said weren't meant to be."
"Go down, today... the emperor will not come."
Lin Chunhuan lowered her eyes, sat in front of the dressing table, and looked at her face carefully. She had to think carefully about who was so impatient and eager to deal with her?
The scent of sandalwood wafts in the air, and the Buddha statue is solemn and majestic.
The emperor changed out of his dragon robe and put on the most ordinary monk's robe. He knelt in front of the Buddha statue for a long time with a pious look on his face.
"Your Majesty, are you thinking about Miss Afu?"
The old eunuch beside him held a Buddhist incense stick, lit it, and passed it to the emperor. "It's been so long, it's time for you to let it go."
"Let it go?" The emperor laughed bitterly. "If only it were that easy."
The old eunuch sighed upon hearing this, "Empress Zhen is a lovely woman. Even for her sake, the Emperor shouldn't embarrass himself like this."
"The Empress has suffered several punishments in the two days since entering the palace. If even you don't protect her, the Empress's future life... will be difficult."
