Chapter 342 I'm Not That Kind of Person

Si Linglong woke up almost immediately.

In a trance, I thought of the sound that sounded like a child running that I heard on the first night, and I couldn't help swallowing.

[Is there really a ghost in this garden? ]

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Shu Hong standing up, apparently having heard the noise, and her voice was quite calm, "Your Highness, please have a rest. I will go and check on you right away."

Si Linglong waited eagerly, and searched around in bed until she found a fat fox sleeping like a pig. She picked it up and held it in her arms.

Soon, the crying outside stopped, and Shuhong followed the man who turned on the light and walked in.

Si Linglong asked hurriedly, "What's wrong? Who is crying?"

At least this time it was clear that she was not the only one who heard someone crying.

Shu Hong's face flashed with obvious discomfort, and she said, "My dear, it's... Li Guipin."

When Si Linglong suddenly heard the name Li Guipin, she was a little unresponsive.

She naturally knew who Li Guipin was.

but……

"Why is she crying in my hospital?!"

Could it be that he was wronged today and came here to scare her in the middle of the night?

Shu Hong pursed her lips, her voice rarely showing sympathy, "Earlier, in order to put on a show, Eunuch Futai took Concubine Li and her waitress Li Qiu to the side room of the courtyard, waiting for the emperor to bring them to trial. But later, Chen Xiurong was caught, and the emperor ordered someone to take care of Chen Xiurong, but forgot to order Concubine Li to be released..."

Even Si Linglong couldn't help being dumbfounded after hearing this, "So you're saying that the person is still locked up in the side room?"

Shu Hong nodded.

Fortunately, the guards brought her food in the evening. The side room was not a place to detain people. They just asked Li Guipin and her palace maids to move to another place to stay for one night. However, Li Guipin didn't know that she had been acquitted. She was also sick, so she was terrified and couldn't sleep. She couldn't help crying at night.

When Shu Hong saw this when she passed by, she felt that this person was somewhat pitiful.

Si Linglong couldn't help but hold her forehead with her hand. When she thought of the crying she had just heard, she couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

He simply stood up and said, "I'll go see her."

Shu Hong opened her mouth, wanting to tell her not to bother her since she was not feeling well, but she was a concubine after all, and it was not easy for her, a palace maid, to make arrangements. She could only go forward to help Si Linglong get up, and then wrapped a thick cloak around her, and then led her down the corridor to the side room at the other end.

The light was still on in the side room, obviously she was not asleep yet. A young eunuch arranged by Fu Tai was guarding outside, and he was a little surprised to see Si Linglong coming over.

Not only the young eunuch, but even Concubine Li in the room looked as if she had seen a ghost when she saw her.

Seeing Si Linglong being helped to sit down by Shu Hongyu, with her hair disheveled because she woke up at night, and her face looking a little haggard because she didn't sleep well, Li Guipin suddenly remembered the basin of blood that Qinglu hurriedly brought out when she was brought here in the daytime, and the words of the doctor Yu that her body was injured...

"Are you, are you okay?" Concubine Li had a troubled look on her face, her voice was a little hoarse, and her eyes looked like they had just cried, which made Si Linglong feel completely confused.

Si Linglong: ???

Seeing her like this, Li Guipin immediately became irritated, "Why did you come here so late at night? If you want to blame me for disturbing your rest, I won't cry."

Si Linglong became more and more confused.

Although her tone was still a bit harsh, she somehow seemed to sense some... concern in her words?

"You're crying, so I have to come over to see you?" Si Linglong replied tentatively.

Concubine Li curled her lips, as if she was still feeling aggrieved, but she finally held back. Seeing that Si Linglong looked increasingly thin in the cloak, she pushed the hand warmer beside her towards Si Linglong.

"What's the point of you coming here? The emperor won't let me go..." Li Guipin said, feeling more and more aggrieved. She looked at Si Linglong with red eyes, "I really didn't ask anyone to set you up. I'm not that kind of person."

Si Linglong: ...

Look how wronged the child is.
