Chapter 472: Just Using Beauty to Serve People
Especially her Yunli suffered a great crime!
Damn these Gentiles, they will pay the price one day!
After receiving the news from A Jin, Concubine Shu was so angry that she couldn't sleep all night.
In recent days, when Jiyun was helping his master to wash and groom herself, he saw that the white hair on her head was constantly growing and was quietly hidden deep in her bun.
Concubine Shu stared at the direction of the imperial palace and gave stern orders.
"Jinxi, before Zhen returns to the palace, bring her to my place."
"The slaves obey."
Cui Jinxi responded respectfully.
"The road to Lingyun Peak is rugged and dangerous. It would be dangerous for you to walk alone."
Jiyun handed the blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing ointment to Cui Jinxi and stated the facts in a low voice.
"My master is alone at the summit, waiting for news. I am worried. Please prepare a torch for me."
Zhen Huan was at her most vulnerable moment, and only by staying by her side at critical moments could she gain more of her trust.
The two of them talked about this outside Baizhi's door and did not hide it from her.
Baizhi was not stupid, she could tell that Jiyun was trying to chase someone away.
"Aunt Jinxi, I feel my foot injury is much better. Please apply the medicine to me as soon as possible. Let's not keep the master waiting for too long."
"Baizhi, you..."
At Baizhi's insistence, Jiyun prepared torches and a sturdy wooden stick for the two of them.
As the two men supported each other across the river, a group of people stopped by the river.
Bai Zhi was sharp-eyed and recognized that they were the group of people galloping on horseback that they had met on the road before.
She muttered to herself: I wonder what these difficult-to-deal-with people are doing here again?
Baizhi looked back at the corner and found that there were more sparks in front of Anqi Temple.
With Cui Jinxi following her, she didn't dare to look any longer and could only silently keep this discovery in mind.
By the time the two of them climbed up Lingyun Peak, the top of the peak had already fallen into darkness.
Cui Jinxi first helped Bai Zhi back to the room, and then gently knocked on a door.
"come in."
Zhen Huan's voice came from inside the door, with a hint of barely perceptible fatigue.
Cui Jinxi reported in a low voice.
"Master, Doctor Wen has been delayed due to some matters, but I suspect he will come to Lingyun Peak in the near future. You don't need to worry too much."
Zhen Huan touched her flat abdomen and sighed slightly.
"Aunt Jinxi, I've been very anxious these past few days. I feel like if I don't settle my return to the palace soon, something unexpected might happen along the way."
She had been dreaming about Yunli repeatedly in the past few days. Her lover, covered in blood, kept yelling at her to take revenge.
Although Zhen Huan didn't hear the name of the enemy he mentioned, based on her own judgment, she was sure that it was related to the one in the palace.
"Master, if we want to conceal this matter, we can only rely on Doctor Wen. No one else can help. Please wait for a moment."
Cui Jinxi guessed that the Concubine Dowager and Prince Guo had people in the Imperial Hospital, but she didn't want their people.
Wen Shichu loves his master so much that he would never reveal the child's secret even if he died.
She went back to Anqi Temple today and wanted to ask Concubine Shu to take Wen Shichu out of Yong'an Prince's Mansion as soon as possible.
"I understand what you're saying, but the baby in your belly can't wait. If Wen Shichu doesn't show up within seven days, we'll have to think of other ways."
Zhen Huan sighed softly.
If the child is older and others fail to fool him, they may end up losing their own lives.
Five days later, Zhen Huan took a sip of the chicken soup served by Bai Zhi and pushed the bowl back.
"I can't eat anymore. Please leave first."
Ginseng chicken soup is a tonic, and she was afraid that if she drank too much, it would make her fat, making it harder to hide the secret of her belly.
"Huan'er, you're weak right now, and you need more chicken soup to replenish your body. Why don't you use more?"
Wen Shichu, who was brought in by Cui Jinxi, hurriedly advised.
Zhen Huan tilted her head slightly and spoke in a low voice.
"I'm ugly, aren't I?"
Wen Shichu quickly waved his hands, "How can you say that? I've just been lacking energy and blood lately, so my complexion is a little dull."
Only then did Zhen Huan look up at him.
"Brother Shichu, I'm pregnant. Lack of Qi and blood is bad for the baby. Please give me some Qi-boosting and blood-tonifying medicine. Do you still have the Fairy Jade Girl Powder you used to have?"
"Why would you think of the Fairy Jade Girl Powder out of the blue?"
Wen Shichu was a little confused about his sweetheart's intentions.
Cui Jinxi, who was guarding the door, explained with a smile.
"Doctor Wen, the mistress is determined to give birth to the child. She's worried that her haggard appearance will affect the child's appearance, so she wants to eat some food that replenishes Qi and blood, and also add the Fairy Jade Girl Powder to nourish both the inside and the outside."
Wen Shichu's eyes lit up when he heard this.
He smiled and said, "Huan'er, it would be best if you treat yourself well."
Zhen Huan stared at Wen Shichu with her moist eyes. "Those medicinal foods that replenish qi and blood should work quickly. I hate seeing myself looking so sick."
"Okay, Dong'e Ejiao will be effective in replenishing qi and blood. I will prepare it and give it to Aunt Jinxi. You must take good care of yourself."
Wen Shichu thought that Zhen Huan had heard what he said before and happily took on the role of the child's father.
He extended his hand towards Zhen Huan, "Come, let me feel your pulse."
After a few breaths, Wen Shichu nodded with satisfaction.
"The pulse is smooth and balanced, there's nothing wrong. Huan'er, you must take good care of yourself and don't get upset or angry anymore. I have to show up at the Imperial Hospital today, and the medicine will be sent to you as soon as possible."
Prince Yong'an unfortunately died, and he had no reason to stay in the Prince's Mansion anymore.
Zhen Huan looked at him with an apologetic expression, "Brother Shichu, thank you for running around for me. Aunt Jingxi, please send him off for me."
After Wen Shichu left, Cui Jinxi came in to report.
"Master, I saw Doctor Wen coming down the mountain with my own eyes."
"Okay. Aunt Jinxi, don't let him know that I'm going back to the palace. After all, this is just using your beauty to please someone."
Bai Zhi, who was standing by, rolled her eyes silently in her heart.
She truly deserves to be Zhen Yuandao's daughter!
