Chapter 108 Imperial Concubine (48)



Seeing her like this, I guess she's thinking about some messed up things again. She's belittling herself and that's why she's sad again.

Yan Fu scratched the girl's nose and said lovingly:

"What are you thinking about? I'm just worried that the bath water might have irritated your wound. But if you want, Lan'er, take good care of yourself."

This means that he is going to bathe himself:

"How can the emperor condescend to help Lan'er...bathe? Lan'er, Lan'er, just ask the palace servants to take care of it."

The girl's voice became softer and softer, and her head lowered lower and lower. Only the redness of her ears showed her shyness.

But the overbearing Yan Fu didn't give in and picked up Qiao Yu and walked towards the bathtub:

"Is there any part of Lan'er's body that I haven't seen?"

Qiao Yu had no choice but to act like an ostrich. Although she could avoid the 404 skills of serving the emperor in bed, this person who personally bathed her made her covered in goosebumps and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

Tonight, Yan Fu was so gentle that he seemed like a different person. He stayed by Qiao Yu's side until she fell asleep, then he tucked her in and left.

Yan Fu looked at the small hillock on the bed. It was so small, cute and unbelievably fragile, and his heart instantly turned into a pool of tears.

But when I think about the suffering I have endured today, it seems that those restless people have extended their hands too far.

When Zhu'er heard the sound of the door opening, she immediately stood up and saw Yan Fu said coldly:

"Take good care of your master."

Zhu'er frowned. She couldn't figure out what the emperor was thinking about her young lady. This incident and the emperor's attitude made Zhu'er even more uneasy.

Oh, God, please bless this kind-hearted young lady. Please punish me a thousand times for any sin I have committed...

Because of this accident, the Mulan Hunt was held much shorter than in previous years.

As for the murderer, it was both surprising and not surprising that it was Concubine Hua's half-sister, Jin Liangyuan.

Hua Yunya cried out in pain every day that she was wronged. After all, her status was still there, and Lord Huang, who was guarding the hunting expedition, couldn't just throw her into jail.

Yan Fu listened to the so-called evidence found by the minister, and indeed every piece pointed to Hua Yunya, and she had no way to defend herself.

But the more solid the evidence was, the more strange it became. Finally, Huang Lixing brought a servant.

He said that Concubine Hua had returned that day, but it was Concubine Liu who reminded the Emperor to go look for her, and Concubine Hua then went back. He hadn't taken it to heart at first, but later, Concubine Liu and Concubine Qiu seemed to have had some kind of argument, and they parted on bad terms.

Just based on a few words from a horse-watching servant, we cannot conclude that Concubine Qiu and Noble Lady Liu were involved in this incident.

"Imprison Jin Liangyuan in her room and hand her back to the Ministry of Punishment. Once Concubine Hua has fully recovered, she will be handed over to her for sentencing. All those responsible for the hunt will have their salaries fined for one year, and the guards on duty that day will each be fined thirty lashes of the cane..."

As for Prince An, I will personally go there to offer apology and condolences."

Huang Lixing and the others wiped the sweat from their foreheads, feeling lucky to have saved their lives.

"Your Majesty, I obey your command."

Finally, Yan Fu dismissed these people and called out the secret guard Pei Luo, handing the matter over to Pei Luo to investigate. Pei Luo was about to leave when Yan Fu stopped him:

"If it's really Concubine Qiu..."

A cold light flashed in his eyes, and his entire body instantly emanated a terrifying aura that made people feel strong murderous intent and abyssal despair:

"Then wipe out the evidence."

Qiu Zixue, don't let me down.

Yan Fu's life was given by Qiu Zixue, and she was always by his side on the long and bumpy road to the throne. Although he did not love Qiu Zixue, he was not an ungrateful person.

After returning to the palace, Yan Fu did not allow anyone else to come to Lanzhao Palace to disturb Qiao Yu's recuperation because she was ill. Qiao Yu had a rare opportunity to relax.

Zhu'er came in with medicine and saw her master pruning the branches of lilies. The woman was wearing a yellow Bixia Luo dress embroidered with phoenixes and a pink smoke gauze skirt that dragged on the ground. She was so close to the lilies that the flowers lost some of their color.

The saying goes that people are more beautiful than flowers is true. Zhu'er couldn't help but smile:

"It's time for you to take your medicine, Madam."

Qiao Yu felt bitter in her mouth when she looked at the black medicine. She had a wound that was slightly more serious than a scratch, but Yan Fu forced her to drink Chinese medicine for a month, saying that it would help her recover at the same time.

"Good Zhu'er, look, the scar on my hand is almost gone, so please spare your queen."

Qiao Yu stretched out her slender white jade hand. The scabs on it that were about to fall off did not ruin this delicate white jade arm.

The girl acted childishly and coquettishly, and her beautiful face made people feel soft-hearted. Fortunately, Zhu'er had been serving her for many years, which gave her some resistance:

"Your Majesty, be obedient. The Emperor knows you don't like the taste of this medicine, so he specially asked the imperial kitchen to prepare malt sugar."

In the two months since the young lady was injured, Zhu'er discovered that the emperor was different from the emperor in the previous life. In this life, the dog emperor has taken a fancy to the young lady, which is actually a good thing.

I just don't know if that person still has a place in the lady's heart...

"Prince An sent me some skin scar glue today."

The woman clearly hated the bitter taste of the medicine, but she didn't swallow it all in one gulp. Instead, she drank it in small sips with a spoon. She was so adorable. If it weren't for her beautiful frown, one would have thought she was drinking some delicious sweet soup.

Qiao Yu's words were not questions but statements. After returning from the hunting grounds, Yan Qu would send some interesting toys to her every day to cheer her up. He even sent her truckloads of the priceless skin mark glue.

But they don’t deliver all of it at once. Instead, they deliver seven days’ supply every three days, and also bring some valuable treasures along with them.

He said that as a "minister", he had failed to protect the empress well, and that sending these things could not make up for his mistake.

No one believed what was said, but no one dared not to believe it either. However, they became more curious about the empress in the palace, both good and bad.
