Upon receiving the news, the steward dared not make the decision to let the Seventh Prince go out for a stroll, nor did he dare to forcibly prevent the prince from leaving. He used to have Consort Su backing him up, but now Consort Su was dead…
Finally, the matter reached the Empress. The Empress was in a good mood. "Poor Xiao Qi, he must be so bored. Ask the head of the Imperial Hospital if Xiao Qi can go out. If he can, have someone arrange it. If not, have the head of the Imperial Hospital tell Xiao Qi that he cannot go out right now."
After receiving the news, the head of the major hospital...
Is Your Majesty deliberately giving him a warning because you know he helped Consort Su in the past? Or are you trying to use the Seventh Prince to bring the Liu family into your camp?
The messenger, seeing that the head of the Imperial Medical Academy was not giving him an answer, coughed twice. "Your Excellency, what do you think of this matter?"
The head of the Imperial Medical Academy recently mistreated the Seventh Prince on the advice of Consort Su. If he were to stop the Seventh Prince from going out to play now...
In addition, the Seventh Prince's illness has almost completely healed...
That evening, after everyone had rested, the Seventh Prince went out for a stroll with the two old eunuchs who served him. There was no one else around.
The seventh prince came out for a stroll again the following evening.
The Imperial Guards responsible for the Seventh Prince's safety, who were at a distance, initially wanted to stop him as he headed towards the kitchen where the palace maids and eunuchs cooked. However, they reconsidered: their priority was to ensure the Seventh Prince's safety; whether the kitchen and its contents were still usable was a matter for the Imperial Hospital.
The Seventh Prince wandered around the kitchen for a while, then walked up to several large vats and whispered, "Are you a maid from Consort Su's palace? If you are, come out. I can help you. I am the Seventh Prince, and I have a blood feud with Consort Su for killing my mother."
“Little palace maid, you’re not familiar with the palace and can’t leave. You can’t hide here forever. Come out, I’ll help you. With my help, you’ll definitely survive.”
The young palace maid thought for a moment, then stepped onto a small stool and pushed open the lid of the rice vat. The lid was made of wood, and the vat was full of rice. "Are you a prince?"
Seventh Prince: "Hmm, I can help you. Come out now."
The two old eunuchs: "..." My God! This little palace maid is really hiding here?! If this little palace maid is hiding here, then... is the master's other guess also true?
The young palace maid climbed out of the vat. She clutched several reed tubes in her hands; these were the tubes she had used to breathe while hiding in the vat for the past few days. "There's also a small stool in the vat. Could you help me get it out?" she asked.
"able."
After the two old eunuchs took the small stool out of the vat, the Seventh Prince found a large basket used for carrying vegetables. "Sit down, and we'll carry you to my place first."
"good."
After the maid sat down, the Seventh Prince added some more vegetables. "Just bear with it."
"It's nothing. Thank you, I will repay you."
"We'll talk about that later, you hide it first."
"OK."
The Imperial Guards responsible for protecting the Seventh Prince didn't pay any attention when they saw the Seventh Prince's two old eunuchs carrying a basket of vegetables from the kitchen.
Kids always like to play around. Didn't you see the Seventh Prince is holding a pot and a spatula?
The seventh prince must want to play house.
The Seventh Prince was really itching to get out of bed.
The group returned safely to the Seventh Prince's residence. Once he was sure it was safe, the Seventh Prince summoned a palace maid. "Are you hungry? I have some snacks here, have some first."
"Okay." She was indeed hungry. She only dared to crawl out to find food when it was almost dawn. "Thank you."
As the seventh prince served snacks to the young palace maid, he said, "No need to thank me. You avenged my mother, so I'll share half of my food with you from now on. What's your name?"
"My name is Tian Daya." After saying that, the little palace maid started eating.
The old eunuch poured Tian Daya a small cup. "Eat slowly, don't choke. Did you really kill Consort Su?"
Tian Daya didn't have time to speak, so she took out the hairpin, which still had some bloodstains on it.
The two old eunuchs: "..." My God! Consort Su really was killed by this little girl! Consort Su certainly never imagined she would die at the hands of such a nobody. However, Consort Su also deserved her fate; it was her own fault for not treating people like human beings.
The Seventh Prince waited until Tian Daya had eaten and drunk her fill before telling her why Consort Su had hit her. "Your eyes are quite similar to the Empress's. You can no longer wear girls' clothes, otherwise the remaining people in Consort Su's palace will remember who you are when they see your eyes."
It doesn't matter whether I wear girls' clothes or not, as long as I can survive. "Will I still be able to show my face in public?"
"Of course we can. It's so pathetic to live a life of hiding. You're smart, and I'm not stupid either. If we join forces, we'll definitely live better than others. Once I'm better, I'll find a way to get you a legal status."
"Alright." Tian Daya knelt down and kowtowed to the Seventh Prince. "Seventh Prince, as long as I live, I will be loyal to you."
The Seventh Prince squatted down, looked into Tian Daya's eyes, and said, "Tian Daya, as long as I live, I will protect you."
For the rest of their lives, both of them kept their promises.
