Yuan Guangyi was flattered by Xia Chu's words and felt extremely comfortable. The promotion, wealth and bright future he wanted were just around the corner, and he was just waiting for the emperor to die and take it from his pocket.
"Little beauty, since you know everything, why don't you come here quickly and serve me properly? If you follow me, you won't have to be a slave or a maid. From now on, you will wear gold and silver..." Before Yuan Guangyi finished speaking, Xia Chu stretched out his hand. It was a palm that knocked him unconscious.
It's not that she wanted to take action, but she saw Yuan Guangyi behind him... The emperor opened his eyes and looked at Yuan Guangyi sternly.
There was a "bang" sound, and Xia Chu looked for the sound.
It turned out that when Xiao Yuanzi saw her being teased by Yuan Guangyi, he wanted to come and offer her a cup of tea to help her out. When he came over, he happened to see this scene. The tea cup slipped from his hand and shattered on the green brick floor, splattering green all over the ground. Green tea powder.
"Oh, why did you knock him out? This..." Xiao Yuanzi looked at Yuan Guangyi who fell to the ground at a loss.
Xia Chu glanced at the emperor and saw that he had closed his eyes again, so he said to Xiao Yuanzi: "It's okay, he's so drunk. If you send him back to Tai Hospital, others will just think he's too drunk." , he won’t remember it tomorrow.”
Xiaoyuanzi swallowed and asked hesitantly: "Are you serious that you don't remember?"
Xia Chu waved to him and took the lead in picking up the broken porcelain on the ground.
Seeing this, Xiao Yuanzi had no choice but to drag Yuan Guangyi out with great effort. When he got to the door, he called Eunuch Li to find someone to help him, and he carried Yuan Guangyi to the Tai Hospital, one on the left and the other on the right.
Xia Chu collected the broken porcelain and put it on the table for the time being. Watching Xiao Yuanzi's figure disappear, he walked to the dragon bed and said: "If Yuan Guangyi saw you open your eyes just now, he would not think that he would have you." If you get angry and come back to life, I'm afraid you will regret it and die."
When the emperor opened his eyes, Xia Chu was taking off his middle coat and preparing to apply medicine on his left chest.
The emperor said in a deep voice: "You are even more presumptuous than your mother."
Xia Chu curled his lips, and after hearing the compliment, Quan Dang asked nonchalantly: "Which should we go to, the East Palace or the Jade Palace first?"
The emperor was sore from the pickling of the herbs, and he gritted his teeth and groaned: "There's no rush."
Xia Chu's bandaged hand paused. Are you not in a hurry
Your eyes were opened just now. Are you in a hurry now
The emperor watched her looking at him continuously, her eyes shining brightly under the glass lamp.
That beautiful face looked so much like Zhao Lansheng that it made him slightly dazed.
"Don't be anxious, Concubine Li doesn't have that patience anymore." Xia Chu had already put on his coat, and seeing that he was still looking blank at this time, he couldn't help but shake his arm.
"The Emperor is not in a hurry, but the maid is." The Emperor looked at her outfit, stretched out his hand to cover her head, and patted her gently: "Let Mu Bai take care of it during the morning court."
Xia Chu took out a pill from his arms: "Can the emperor take this antidote with confidence?"
The emperor was originally teasing her, his face froze, and he took the pill from her hand with a bit of embarrassment: "I misunderstood you about the poisoning."
Xia Chu clicked his tongue twice: "What do you mean, Your Majesty? I made two more pills later. I originally planned to eat them with you if you insist on not believing them."
The emperor glanced at her: "Don't push yourself too far. Are you hiding too much from me?"
Xia Chu laughed awkwardly, and when she saw him getting up and out of bed, he quickly stepped forward to help him.
The emperor walked to the writing desk and put the pen in front of him. Xia Chu obediently spread rice paper for him and polished it.
The emperor frowned: "No rice paper, just bring the edict."
Xia Chu looked stunned. She didn't know where the edict was. She put down the inkstone and started looking around.
"Four cabinets and three drawers arranged horizontally." The emperor's voice sounded from behind.
Xia Chu took two steps back and counted, found the corresponding drawer, opened it and took out a volume of edict.
"You are incompetent as a palace maid." The emperor looked at her unfamiliar posture and joked.
Xia Chu snorted twice, he really used her as a palace maid...
While Xia Chu was grinding, he secretly glanced at the emperor writing. As soon as he saw it, his grinding hand froze.
What the emperor wrote was an edict to establish the crown prince.
When writing the name of the person, the emperor's pen paused, and he raised his eyes to look at Xia Chu, who was still peeking at him at first, but now he was looking at his head openly and asked: "Since you are a woman, you are also the crown prince. Mu Bai, are you still happy about your choice?"
Xia Chu waved his hands repeatedly and moved out his late mother: "My mother did not want me to enter the palace. I will never have the chance to be filial to her in this life. I must abide by her last wish."
The emperor pursed his lips. What he said really sounded like Lan Sheng's character. When the Marquis proposed to marry him, he also swore never to take concubines. She herself could not tolerate serving one husband together. Naturally, she was reluctant to let her daughter enter the palace and give up her mother's respect for the world. She doesn't want her to compete with three thousand beauties for favor.
Xia Chu neither wanted to enter the palace nor wanted him to appoint Xiao Mubai, so he considered his words and added: "Your Majesty, Mu Bai said he just wants to live peacefully with me for a few years..."
Xia Chu publicly blamed the emperor for saying this, because Xiao Mubai had been very prosperous for a few years, but secretly attributed these words to Xiao Mubai, and the emperor could not blame her for bullying him again in the future.
"You are also proficient in medical skills. You must also know about his body..." The emperor's eyes dimmed.
"Hurry up and write. It's true that the emperor is not in a hurry, but the palace maid is in a hurry." Xia Chu's face felt slightly hot, but she was not worried that he would appoint someone else. Besides Xiao Mubai, the most suitable candidate right now is Xiao Zimu.
The emperor had experienced the affairs between men and women for a long time, so he could see the shyness on her face at a glance, but now he could see that Xiao Mubai was so attracted to her.
Privately, he was extremely happy.
"In that case, let Mu'er give it a try first. The jade seal is under the loquat tree in the backyard of Concubine Li's dormitory. Let him find a way to dig it out and capture the mother and son in the morning."
Listening to the emperor's words, Xia Chu still liked Xiao Mubai inside and outside.
It seemed that he was really favored.
But now, Xiao Zimu was given a chance. Her eyes lit up. Li Fei probably never imagined that the jade seal she had been searching for for many days would be buried in the backyard of her dormitory. She dug up all the palaces. The ground is three feet deep, but I have never checked my own bedroom.
"Your Majesty, you have been planning this move for a long time, right?" Xia Chu was amazed and couldn't help but realize that the Emperor had been planning this early in the morning.
At this time, she didn't know who Xiao Mubai met in the private prison of the Zhao Mansion, but she only deduce it based on the emperor's actions.
"Why don't you go quickly?" The emperor asked without answering.
"Hey." Xia Chu took two steps and then turned back and asked, "Concubine Li's Jade Palace is very tight now. What if Zi Mu can't get it?"
The emperor sneered: "Then he is not worthy of being a prince."
"Hey." Xia Chu took two more steps and looked back.
"Are you done yet?" The emperor sneered.
Xia Chu curled his lips: "I want to ask, do you still want to hide the news about your awakening from Xiao Yuanzi and Eunuch Li?"
