"Can Lan'er blame me?"
This is what Yan Fu asked Qiao Yu on the bed. The woman's arms were tightly wrapped around the man, and her moans were muffled.
Jiujiu replied: "No....ever."
Yan Fu was not satisfied with this answer, because he was not only asking whether he blamed himself, but also whether he blamed the Regent, the Queen Mother, and the Duke of Hua.
This woman faced all the tragedies that befell her calmly. She was neither afraid nor resentful. Yan Fu did not resent his prey nor was he afraid of the hunter.
The first time is unfamiliar, the second time is familiar. When Qiao Yu came to Prince An's Mansion for the second time, the guards at the door had been replaced.
She no longer dared to be negligent towards Qiao Yu, as she was now the second-rank Concubine Hua.
As soon as she got out of the sedan chair, the guards saluted in unison and opened the door for her. Qiao Yu didn't even get out of the sedan chair:
"We bow to the Empress Hua, may the Empress Hua live forever."
The maid in the mansion respectfully took Qiao Yu to the same waiting room as last time. Qiao Yu thought that since she had come here again, she would probably be familiar with the place.
The only difference this time was that the smell of medicine on Yan Qu was stronger, and they could smell it even from such a distance.
The only difference in just one month was that Qiao Yu didn't have to stand up to salute King Tong'an this time.
Normally, the concubine would stand up. After all, Yan Qu was not only the prince, but also the regent.
"I am not feeling well, so I just had to get up to greet Her Majesty. I hope Her Majesty will sit for as long as she needs and then go back."
Yan Qu's cough really came back this time. He was exhausted even when he stood up and walked. Qiao Yu frowned when she saw this.
"Prince An, I'm here to bring you medicine. Do you really not want me to come?"
This time it was Yan Qu who frowned. This woman was strange. If it were anyone else, they would have been very aggrieved if they were called by their husbands to visit other men.
I didn't make things difficult for her. I let her stay in Prince An's Mansion for as long as she wanted and then go back. Is it a problem for her to lie down by herself?
"Your Majesty, you are overthinking it. I know my own health. Even if I take a miracle drug, it won't last more than a couple of days."
Sufang handed over the brocade box, and Qiao Yu winked at her to wait outside. Then he took out the pill from the brocade box and handed it over:
"Take it. If it doesn't work, Your Highness, you can report me to the Emperor."
The girl looked at him straight with her almond-shaped eyes, without any panic in them. If she really wanted to harm him, she would not use such a stupid trick.
But who can say what if something happens? The woman in front of him has a thousand reasons to hate him.
Last time, Yan Qu found out that the source of the rumor was the second daughter of Hua Mansion. He wanted to let his men give Hua Yunya a hard time, but who would have thought that the empress dowager summoned her into the palace every day.
It was not difficult to punish a little girl on the road, but Hua Yunya got into trouble on the way to pay his respects to the empress dowager, and it was the empress dowager who was slapped in the face.
So the matter was delayed.
Yan Qu took the brocade box after just a second, but he didn't eat it right away. He asked someone to put it away.
"Xiny..."
The girl was so angry about his distrust that she stood up and snatched the box away, then swallowed one of the boxes raw.
Unexpectedly, the pill was too big and the girl's pharyngeal tube was too thin, so she choked and bent over in pain, coughing violently.
Yan Qu was also confused by Qiao Yu's actions. Seeing that Qiao Yu was really choked, he hurried to pour tea.
He subconsciously wanted to pat her back like a child, but then he remembered their identities and thought it was inappropriate to do so.
"Your Majesty, why are you doing this? I just used the medicine so I need to put it away. You don't have to swallow the pill directly to make me trust you."
What would it mean if Qiao Yu really choked to death in Prince An's mansion? Wouldn't rumors spread that Concubine Hua committed suicide in Prince An's mansion out of love?
The girl, having recovered, gave him a haughty look:
"If it weren't for your thief-guarding eyes, I would have been really afraid that the prince would come back and say that I had poisoned the medicine if I didn't take it!"
Qiao Yu's words were like those of an unreasonable child. Perhaps because she had just been choked, her eyes were slightly red, and even her fair little face was flushed.
For the first time, Yan Qu felt that people's praise for Qiao Yu was true. She was indeed prettier than other girls.
Yan Qu realized that his gaze seemed to have lingered for too long, and he retracted it without changing his expression, as if he didn't think there was anything wrong with such a naked look just now.
"My eyesight may not be clear due to my illness, so I caused Her Majesty to misunderstand me. It's my fault."
What a mouthful of silver teeth! Doesn't this clearly mean that Qiao Yu must have seen it wrong? Yan Qu is not disbelieving himself, he is just sick.
And if she hadn't felt guilty, how could she have thought that Yan Qu suspected her?
Besides, if it is really a panacea that is rarely seen in a thousand years, how can it be taken so easily?
"These two pills are short-term medications, they can only maintain the prince's health for less than a month. I will not give the permanent pill to the prince so easily."
Qiao Yu's words did not make Yan Qu angry, and even made him feel a little puzzled.
Normally, someone who says this would be showing off, but when the girl said it, it sounded a bit sad.
She knew that if she didn't say so, no one would believe her. Hua Yunlan was not a good actor, since she was a child.
But is this medicine really as miraculous as she said?
"Hua Fei doesn't know what disease this prince has, so how can you be sure that this pill can cure him?"
Qiao Yu did not feel guilty about this. She exchanged this medicine from 404. The genuine one could not only cure the weakness caused by fetal toxins like Yan Qu, but it could even alleviate cancer.
Two temporary pills and the original product cost her 1,000 yuan.
"Believe it or not, Your Highness. Since your fever hasn't subsided yet, please go back to your room and lie down to rest. I will sit here and leave when the time comes, Sufang."
Sufang heard her master's voice and walked in neatly. Qiao Yu said something to her, and Sufang took out the sketchbook she had prepared earlier.
