The medicine from Chu Jianmo was really of prime quality that only after using it twice her wound began to scab. And on the second day, the bleeding was stopped as well.
On the third day of her holiday, she went to the imperial garden again. For some reason, she realized that almost every time she met Chu Jianmo, it was in the imperial garden. And that made her feel this imperial garden especially beautiful and lovely.
It was a royal garden!
The moment she stepped into the imperial garden, she heard someone calling her from the front, “Eunuch Lin!”
She looked up and found a man in white standing in the bushes. His hair band was blown up by the breeze and he looked like an immortal in the flower cluster.
Her eyes were brightened up as she walked towards him quickly, “Mr. Chu, how come you are here again?”
“Just taking a walk.” Chu Jianmo asked her with a smile, “Is your wound getting better?”
She looked at her wound for a bit and nodded, “Yes. Thanks for your medicine.”
“You should thank yourself for the quick recovering.”
As they were chatting happily, they didn’t realize that a pair of eyes were monitoring them at the same time.
Noticing that Ye Shengxuan was staring at the two who were talking to each other, Shiao Qi couldn’t help reminding him, “Your Majesty, Lin Dagou has been really popular recently that almost everyone in the palace knows him. Even Chu Jianmo has become his friend.”
Hearing that, Ye Shengxuan threw him a glimpse.
Feeling that Ye Shengxuan was becoming more upset, Shiao Qi didn’t dare to speak anymore, so he just stood next to Ye Shengxuan and stared at Helian Chacha with him.
This time, the princess didn’t come here to interrupt the date of Chu Jianmo and Helian Chacha, so the two of them talked for the entire lunch break.
Yet Chu Jianmo had something to do in the afternoon, so they finally separated.
When Helian Chacha was about to go back to the side hall for a rest, Shiao Qi suddenly showed up and stopped her.
“His Majesty wants to see you.”
Helian Chacha’s hard-earned sick leave came to an end with these few words.
“Good day, Your Majesty.”
Inside the Yangxin Hall, Helian Chacha bowed to Ye Shengxuan to greet him.
Ye Shengxuan glanced at her slightly and didn’t let her stand up, saying, “Is your wound fully recovered?”
Helian Chacha couldn’t read his mind, and she didn’t dare to take a wild guess, so she bowed and replied, “Your Majesty, it’s almost recovered.”
“Oh? Almost? So you still needs more time to fully recover? Is it because you take the time to meet your date instead of healing your wound?”
Hearing that, Helian Chacha was shocked, “What do you mean, Your Majesty?”
She didn’t know why he talked to her like that.
Ye Shengxuan sneered, “Never mind if you don’t get my point. Now you have someone else to count on, so I guess you don’t even care if you can understand me or not, right?”
Helian Chacha was even more confused and wondered if something weird had happened to Ye Shengxuan today, or he wouldn’t have spoken so weirdly like that.
And, somehow she felt that he probably knew she had just met Chu Jianmo.
Wait, Chu Jianmo!
So he had realized it already?
This man… got jealous?
She got a shiver all of a sudden and slapped herself in the face which totally shocked Ye Shengxuan.
Before Ye Shengxuan could understand why she slapped herself, she yelled, “It was all my fault!”
Ye Shengxuan thought she just admitted that she got a date, so he became more upset, “Why was it your fault?”
“My body is to blame that it recovers so slow. I tried so hard to recover quickly so that I could come here to serve you, Your Majesty. And that’s why I borrowed the medicine from Mr. Chu in a hurry. I know I didn’t rest enough to recover so that it takes longer for me to get better, and I made you upset, Your Majesty. I deserve to die!”
After hearing what she had just said, Ye Shengxuan didn’t feel that bad, “So you mean you meet Chu Jianmo just for the medicine?”
“Exactly!”
She kept her head down so she couldn’t see the face of Ye Shengxuan, but she heard the sound of him exhaling.
Did Ye Shengxuan just got relieved?
Maybe this arrogant emperor was just getting jealous?
As she was wondering, Ye Shengxuan suddenly said, “If you get hurt in the future, just go to the imperial hospital for medicine. No need to ask someone else for it!”
Although she was happy because of this special treatment given by Ye Shengxuan, she knew that being special was kind of the biggest taboo in this imperial palace.
She refused him politely, “But the medicines in the imperial hospital are for Your Majesty and your concubines. How am I supposed to take them as a eunuch…”
But since Ye Shengxuan had determined it, there was no other choice. He said coldly, “I just said it, so you can take them!”
Now, she had just earned the right of taking medicines from the imperial hospital.
Soon, the romance of her getting the favor from Ye Shengxuan and the caring from Chu Jianmo got spread to almost every corner in the palace.
Even the old guy who sent firewood into the palace now knew, the most favored one in the palace was not a concubine, but a eunuch who served the emperor by his side!
Helian Chacha got blessed with her misfortune and was now enjoying a good life inside the imperial palace. While the Empress Dowager was super worried because she didn’t know when Helian Chacha would tell the emperor her little secret.
However, when the Empress Dowager was so worried that she didn’t know what to do, there was a Feng Shui master coming to Cining Palace. That Feng Shui master said the Cining Palace had too much Yin power that it needed some Yang power to suppress it, or it might cause some bloody damages.
The Empress Dowager always believed in these superstitious stuffs, so she invited the master to her place immediately.
The Empress Dowager was lying on her chaise and she looked really worried, “Master, I am now so worried about one thing. Can you tell me how I can get rid of this burden?”
Hearing that, the Feng Shui master started to show his talent by pinching his fingers and then said mysteriously to her, “Don’t worry, Your Highness. Causes and consequences always come together. You only need to find the reason for your concern and end it. Then everything will be fine.”
“The reason for my concern…” The Empress Dowager held up her chin and started to think about it.
The master just sat aside and didn’t bother her but just let her think on her own.
After a long while, it seemed that the Empress Dowager had come up with something that her eyes were lit up suddenly, “I know it now! Thanks for your help, master.”
The master nodded mysteriously and said nothing.
On the next day, the news of the death of Eunuch Fu exploded in the harem all of a sudden. But what was more surprising was that Eunuch Fu died in the side hall.
The death of a eunuch was actually not a big deal, but the location of his death had just spiced the whole thing up. His body was found in Helian Chacha’s room and he died of being stabbed in the chest, which caused excessive bleeding.
Helian Chacha was the first who found the body and she reported immediately. But the guardians went into her room right after that.
“I didn’t kill him! Let me go!” Helian Chacha tried so hard to get rid of them.
The guardian who was grabbing her sneered, “You didn’t kill him? Then tell me why the body is in your room? And why are you the first to see the body? If it was not you, then what a coincidence it would be.”
“How can I know why he died in my room?” She suddenly realized something was wrong, so she yelled, “I know it! Someone is trying to set me up! Let me go! I’m going to see His Majesty!”
“Hahaha…” The man laughed out loud as if he just heard a joke, yet he calmed down right away and pulled her hair harder, “His Majesty? In your dream! Everyone knows that you are his favorite, so why would I be so dumb to send you back to His Majesty? Doesn’t that mean setting you free?”
After that, he waved at those people standing next to him, “Take him away!”
The medicine from Chu Jianmo was really of prime quality that only after using it twice her wound began to scab. And on the second day, the bleeding was stopped as well.
