Chapter 31: See Him not in the Palace



Chapter 31

Yuwen Hao picked up his chopsticks and ate the now cold food, glancing at her lightly, "Want to fight? Eat your fill first to have strength to fight."

Yuan Qingling knew she had misunderstood, feeling a little embarrassed, and put her hairpin back on before sitting down again.

She was indeed quite desperately hungry, ever since coming here, she had been starving her stomach.

Because she was always on guard in her heart, she ate very quickly, bolting it down.

While Yuwen Hao ate slowly and steadily, his expression still gloomy, but his whole person seemed especially calm, it's just that this calmness, made people feel it concealed unpredictable storms.

After Yuan Qingling finished her meal, she went behind the screen and gave herself an injection and took medicine.

The gauze screen filtered light through, so Yuwen Hao could actually see what she was doing inside.

He watched fixedly, these past few days, things had slipped out of his control and grasp, Yuan Qingling's change, also changed the situation.

He was once again thrown into turmoil.

This was not a good thing, but if it could make Grandfather Emperor get better, he didn't care either.

Yuan Qingling's change, he could slowly observe and investigate once back at the manor, she could not overturn the heavens.

After Yuan Qingling finished her injection, she put the medicine in her mouth and swallowed it down with cold water.

Yuwen Hao raised his head looking at her, lightly said: "Go back to the bedroom palace and stay there, don't meddle in anything, and don't try to explain too much either, this king is going out of the palace."

Yuan Qingling felt his sudden change in attitude gave her no sense of security at all, she always felt he had some evil scheme brewing.

"Let me help bandage your wounds." Yuan Qingling hardened her scalp and said, remembering his evilness, these words were truly forced.

Yuwen Hao shook his head, stood up and turned to leave.

Watching his departing back, Yuan Qingling felt it strange, he could have easily left without eating this meal.

And also, she had just acted like that against Chu Mingcui, Chu Mingcui was the apple of his eye, how could he let it go just like that?

Remembering the instant when he raised his hand to slap, the alarming clouds swirling in his eyes, it was very frightening.

His figure was pulled long by the setting sun, after passing through the palace gate, his shadow instantly disappeared, not leaving a trace.

In Yuan Qingling's heart, a strange feeling slowly rose up.

A feeling nearing inauspiciousness.

Returning to Qian Kun Palace, Grand Emperor and Fu Bao were still sleeping, she sat at the side, Chang Gong Gong stood in front of the bed, head lowered and standing erect, occasionally stealing a glance at her.

The second day, Fu Bao's spirit was much better, looks like this rascal had evaded calamity.

With Fu Bao's improvement, Grand Emperor's mood opened up, his illness also showed signs of improvement.

After morning court, Emperor Ming Yuan came first to ask after Grand Emperor, then Prince Rui, the Empress, Empress Dowager, Noble Imperial Concubine, then the various princes, Qian Kun Palace had been busy nonstop that morning.

But Grand Emperor didn't really speak much for the most part, the princes came in, kowtowed and left.

Chu Mingcui and Prince Qi also came, Chu Mingcui's eyes were tinged with red threads, but Prince Qi was very affectionate to her, holding her hand whenever they came or left.

When Chu Mingcui entered the palace, she gave Yuan Qingling a look, that gaze, concealed sinister intentions.

While at this time Yuan Qingling was disinfecting Fu Bao's wounds, while saying to Fu Bao: "Fu Bao, when you see the person who harmed you in the future, you must not show mercy."

Prince Qi glared at Yuan Qingling, how can this woman be so detestable? Fifth brother really should teach her a lesson.

After Prince Qi and his wife left, Grand Emperor looked at Yuan Qingling and said: "Can't your mouth stay idle? What's the point of saying so much?"

Yuan Qingling wiped her hands, "Yes, I'll remember Grand Emperor's teaching."

"Still not convinced?" Grand Emperor humphed, "Don't know your own limits? Be careful of disasters sprouting from your mouth."

Yuan Qingling was stunned for a moment, she really wasn't that childish, so she shook her head more firmly, "I really don't think that way."

Grand Emperor tapped the bedside, "Come kneel here!"

Soft cushions were already laid at the bedside, for the convenience of Yuan Qingling kneeling.

Grand Emperor knew she was injured and could not sit, kneeling was most comfortable, so he had Chang Gong Gong prepare the cushions.

Yuan Qingling knelt on the cushion, having served in the palace for three days, she understood Grand Emperor's temperament, whenever he had a bit of spirit, he would admonish people, and wouldn't accept any rebuttal or explanation.

Sure enough, it started.

"Do you feel, that I'm telling you to endure silently means I'm telling you to be a turtle grandson?"

Yuan Qingling shook her head, "I don't think that way."

"No? Clearly you do, you feel wronged in your heart, feeling that unfair matters must be spoken out, and you can't compromise."

Yuan Qingling really wasn't that childish, so she shook her head more firmly, "I really don't think that way."

Grand Emperor knocked the bedside with the back of his hand, strengthening his tone, "What do you fear embarrassment for? Everyone would think this way, I was like this when I was young too, I encountered countless walls, only then did I comprehend the rationale, when you have ability, you can speak out about all unfair matters, but when you have no ability, even if people make you eat dog shit, you still have to eat it."

"...Yes!" Yuan Qingling hung her head, appearing very humble and willing to learn.

"Still not convinced?" Grand Emperor raised a brow.

Yuan Qingling raised her head, her eyes really did not show any hint of rebellion, as meek and obedient as a little white rabbit, where did she look unwilling?

"Truly convinced!" She said, glancing outside, all the princes had come, how come Yuwen Hao still hadn't appeared? She actually hoped at all that he wouldn't come.

Seeing her absent-minded, Grand Emperor's face fell, "Not listening to an elder's words, suffering losses right before your eyes, in the future you'll know my words can compare to sages."

Rhyming! Good literary talent!

The imperial physician personally brought medicine in, Yuan Qingling silently cheered inside, extremely diligent as she said: "Leave it to me!"

The imperial physician respectfully said: "Thanks to the Empress."

She carried the medicine over, Grand Emperor's complexion darkened by a large half, looking at Yuan Qingling's gentle smile, retribution comes quickly huh.

Chang Gong Gong stood at the side holding candied fruits, waiting for the medicine to be finished drinking, he immediately passed the candied fruits over, Chang Gong Gong's gaze looking at Grand Emperor, heartache beyond words.

"This old slave hates that he can't suffer illness in your stead."

If it was another person saying this, it would be a bit fawning, but with Chang Gong Gong saying it, it was full of affectionate pampering.

"With your status, you can suffer illness in my stead?" Grand Emperor chewed the candied fruit in his mouth, vaguely saying.

Chang Gong Gong only smiled looking at him, not answering.

Yuan Qingling fed Fu Bao water, Fu Bao still lacked spirit, drinking two mouthfuls before lying back down, so Yuan Qingling stroked its dog head.

Sunshine shone in from outside the palace, everything inside, seemed truly peaceful and tranquil like this.

A small eunuch came in from outside and softly reported: "Grand Emperor, Prince Ji is waiting outside."

Grand Emperor's eyes faintly looked up, the earlier anger completely gone, calmly saying: "Invite him in."

Prince Ji entered the palace, wearing a brocade cloud pattern python robe, appearing vigorous and dynamic, he respectfully came forward and knelt down, "Grandson pays respects to Grandfather Emperor, may Grandfather Emperor be forever healthy!"

Lying sickly on the bed, Grand Emperor's gaze clouded as he glanced at Prince Ji, squeezing out a hoarse hmm sound from his throat, responding perfunctorily.

Prince Ji kneeled two steps forward, "How is Grandfather Emperor feeling today?"

"Much better!" Though Grand Emperor said this, from his voice and expression, he really didn't look any better at all.

"Grandfather Emperor's health is this grandson's blessing." Prince Ji had an appearance of gratitude moved to tears.

After speaking a few sentences, Prince Ji took his leave.

Before leaving, he deliberately took a look at Yuan Qingling, deep in his eyes, seemingly containing a kind of strange thing.

Yuan Qingling inexplicably felt her heart shudder once.
