A Mistaken Marriage Match: Mysteries in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 48: Dilemma

"Imperial Physician had just look through and it was nothing serious."

Just as Qing Feng finished speaking, there was suddenly a sound sounded from the house. It was very light, like something was knocked over. Such a small sound was actually insignificant but Zhuo Qing felt that the hands that was holding hers suddenly shook. Shui Xin's bright eyes looked directly at the closed window as if they could see into the house.

"Ru Yi, stop looking and just bring any shawl out. It is not necessarily be that mink one." Qing Feng's voice had a little helplessness and laziness in it as she got up slowly and took her hands back from Zhuo Qing, and pretended to smoothern her ruffled skirt and covered the panic in her eyes.

"Cannot. Only the mink shawl is warm enough." A gentle female voice sounded from inside the house before another few soft sounds, as if one was rummaging for something.

She was indeed a quick-witted girl. Qing Feng was secretly relieved and her expression was much more natural as she smiled, "This girl is really."

Shui Xin also smiled as she turned her head around. There was a gentle smile on her expression and there was no longer that sharp look but the words she said made Qing Feng's heart cold, "That sedan was place outside the house which made entering and exiting the house difficult. This servant will get some people to carry it away."

There are blood stains in the sedan and she must not carry it away! Qing Feng chuckled but not too deliberately, before she casually replied, "Not needed. There is still a banquet at night. Bengong may attend it if my health improves and at that time, it will come in handy. All right, you can retire."

Shui Xin's gaze landed on the sedan but she did not say anything and only gave a light bow before exiting Qing Feng Hall.

Even though Fu Ling had shut the main doors of Qing Feng Hall, Qing Feng actually felt more insecure and Shui Xin also gave a smile like she knows something.

Seeing her like that, her heart was inexplicitly frightened. All along she had the feeling that compared to Xin Yue Ning, she was much harder to deal with.

Qing Feng was immersed in her thoughts until she felt her silent Eldest Sister suddenly pull her up and carefully checking her body, making Qing Feng asked questioningly, "Eldest Sister?"

Zhuo Qing did not bother about her and after inspecting once over, she found that she did not have any injuries on her and there was also no problem with her body temperature. After verifying all those, Zhuo Qing's expression got worse and she asked softly, "What exactly are you doing?"

Qing Feng unconsciously took a step back and softly whispered back, "I did not do anything. I am just tired."

"Your entire courtyard is filled with the scent of blood and you tell me that there is nothing?" As a forensic doctor, she was particularly sensitive to the scent of blood. Ever since she stepped into the courtyard, she already found it discerning.

There was the scent of blood in the courtyard?! Qing Feng's face paled as she looked at the tightly shut room and the sedan that was at a distance from them. After her heart settled and she breathed in gently. Other than the faint scent of begonia in the courtyard, one would not smell any other thing. Lightly cough, Qing Feng pretended to be angry, "Eldest Sister, what nonsense are you talking about! Where would there be a scent of blood."

Zhuo Qing did not say a word and just stared coolly at her. Qing Feng felt guilty but she dare not break the eye contact but facing Zhuo Qing clear and sharp eyes, she was secretly afraid. Since when did Eldest Sister became this intimidating and frightening. Knowing that she cannot continue this stare down as she would inevitably expose herself, she gradually turn her hand softly said, "I am really all right. You... Should go back first. Fu Ling, send Eldest Sister back." Finishing, Qing Feng walked pass Zhuo QIng and headed into the house. Until she had firmly closed the door up, Qing Feng could then dared to breath.
