Chapter 230: Life-saving Grace
The emperor's palm was large and hot, and he held it in Concubine Zhou's palm.
He lifted her up from the ground with force at her wrist.
"Miss Zhou, are you okay?" Xiao Yu thought of the dangerous situation just now, frowned slightly and asked another question.
Zhou Shuyun lowered her head and looked at her hand which was tightly held by the Emperor.
A hint of blush flashed across her cheeks.
It seemed like this was the first time she was so close to His Majesty.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhou Shuyun's eyes were dazed for a moment, and she waited for a long time before shaking her head.
"I'm fine." Zhou Shuyun spoke softly.
But his eyes were fixed on the hand of His Majesty that was held in his palm.
There was a heat in his eyes that he himself was not aware of.
"I'm glad you're okay." Xiao Yu naturally didn't see Zhou Shuyun's eyes. After hearing it, he immediately let go of the hand that was supporting Lady Zhou.
Just as she was about to turn around, Concubine Rong came over and said, "Lady Zhou, what's wrong with your arm?"
Concubine Rong came down and held Lady Zhou's hand attentively. She looked at the bleeding arm and couldn't help but exclaimed:
"Your arm is bleeding, and you still say it's okay."
Following Concubine Rong's soft call, everyone's eyes turned to Concubine Zhou again.
Zhou Shuyun was wearing the clothes of a palace maid. The brown long skirt made her look extremely low-key, but blood was still oozing out from the cuffs.
The robe had been stained with blood long ago...
Xiao Yu's brows were slightly furrowed, and he looked at Zhou Shuyun with an unknown look in his eyes.
Then he immediately turned around and said, "Call the imperial physician."
Lin An immediately went to do it after receiving the order. Zhou Shuyun felt a tingling sensation in her heart after hearing what the Emperor said.
His Majesty still cares about me so much.
Zhou Shuyun's heart was filled with turmoil, but she also knew that now was not the right time.
She raised her head and looked at His Majesty with gratitude, her eyes full of gratitude: "Thank you, Your Majesty, but I am really fine."
"But Concubine Shen is still pregnant, and I don't know if she fell just now."
Zhou Shuyun said, looking in the direction of Shen Fu. With his blood-stained arm, he looked at Shen Fu with a worried look on his face.
"Shen Jieyu, are you okay?"
Zhou Shuyun looked worried. Shen Fu, who was standing behind His Majesty, saw Zhou Shuyun's concerned look.
"Fortunately, you arrived in time." Chen Fu looked at the palace maid costume on Zhou Shuyun, with a slight smile in the corner of her eyes: "If you hadn't arrived in time, I would have fallen."
Lady Zhou's appearance was so timely that it wasn't even a coincidence. Instead, it was as if she had been waiting there specifically.
What's more, Concubine Zhou was a concubine, but she didn't wear the clothes of a concubine but the clothes of a palace maid.
Considering what happened today, Shen Fu couldn't help but doubt.
"But you were standing there, still wearing a maid's outfit, and I didn't even recognize it as you..."
Zhou Shuyun probably didn't expect Chen Fu to respond like this. She lowered her head and looked at the palace maid's uniform on her body. When she lowered her head, the corners of her mouth were silent for a moment.
"I..." She came to Concubine Rong's palace, but she was wearing the clothes of a palace maid, which was obviously unacceptable.
"It's because Concubine Zhou is sensible." At this time, Concubine Rong, who had been standing in the corner, stepped forward with a smile.
"During the battlefront, Lady Zhou had a high fever and I sent a royal doctor to see her twice."
"Concubine Zhou has been thinking about this matter all the time. After she recovered, she came to me and said she wanted to serve me. I didn't let her come, but she insisted on coming." Concubine Rong held Concubine Zhou's hand.
"No, it's a good thing she came, otherwise we wouldn't have happened to meet Concubine Shen."
Concubine Rong kept saying that it was Zhou Shuyun who saved Chen Fu, as if Concubine Zhou had saved her life.
Shen Fu stood there in silence.
Coincidentally, the imperial physician arrived at this time.
