Quick Wear: When a Delicate Beauty Becomes Cannon Fodder

The Little Princess in the Palace (33)

  "I have something else to do and need to go out for a while." He paused.

  "When I come back, I will continue kneeling."

  After saying that, there was no response.

  Qi Guanyao watched Ruan Ruan's eyes narrowing little by little, not knowing whether she had heard what he said.

  Her lips were still a little red and swollen, but Qi Guanyao didn't dare to be presumptuous and gently kissed her forehead.

  He quickly withdrew, along with the big hand in his hair.

  He turned and walked out, and Eunuch Sun hurriedly followed behind him.

  "Go check if the maid who was previously sent to the laundry department is still alive."

  "Your Majesty, are you talking about Miss Ruan's maid, Yunzhu?"

  Qi Guanyao suddenly stopped walking, and Eunuch Sun reacted quickly and also stopped behind him.

  His Majesty looked at him, his eyes were so dark that he dared not look directly at them.

  Eunuch Sun suddenly knelt down in front of him with a firm sound.

  "Your Majesty, please forgive me for taking the initiative."

  "Tell me, what did you do?" His face showed no sign of happiness or anger.

  "I heard that Miss Ruan was coming back, and I thought she might meet her former maid. But I also thought that His Majesty only had Miss Ruan in his heart, and he was very happy, so he might not care about the maid for a while. So I took the initiative to go and take a look first."

  "Slave...slave asked someone to stop her work first. She should be resting in the house now."

  After saying this, he did not dare to look up, for fear of misinterpreting the emperor's intention.

  The silence lasted for a long time, and he felt more and more unsure.

  "You did a great job this time, what reward do you want?"

  His Majesty finally spoke, smiling.

  Eunuch Sun breathed a sigh of relief.

  "It is my duty to share your majesty's worries. I dare not ask for a reward."

  After all the nice words, he still took a lot of things.

  Qi Guanyao was too lazy to think about what to give, so he simply gave him ten thousand taels of gold.

  Eunuch Sun thanked him with a smile, his face almost wrinkled like a chrysanthemum.  

  "Take me over to have a look."

  Hearing His Majesty's words, Eunuch Sun hurriedly led the way.

  After several twists and turns, I finally entered the laundry department.

  Although Eunuch Sun came over to say hello and asked someone to take care of the person, he still didn't dare to take the person out without permission.

  In a small room.

  Yunzhu was lying on the bed resting. She didn't react when Eunuch Sun pushed the door open. When she saw His Majesty behind him, she hurriedly got off the bed.

  He knelt on the ground without even having time to put on his coat.

  "Your servant greets His Majesty."

  Qi Guanyao stepped into the room, and the already small room seemed even more cramped with more people. The air was damp, and there was a smell of something fermenting, which was a bit unpleasant.

  The three people present looked normal, as if they didn't smell it at all.

  Qi Guanyao didn't let her get up.

  "Do you know why I came to see you?" He spoke in a pretentious tone, with a hint of playfulness between his lips and teeth.

  Her blood-red lips curled up slightly, and her dark eyes fell on her hands that were resting on her dress, which were a little red and swollen.

  "Eunuch Sun has already informed this servant."

  "Tomorrow, I will send someone to take you back."

  "Do you know what to say?"

  Yunzhu lowered his head even lower.

  "Your Majesty knew nothing about this matter. Thank God that Your Majesty sent someone to look for me, otherwise I would not have been able to hold on."

  His Majesty seemed satisfied.

  "Sun Dexin, you stay. There must be no mistakes tomorrow. Do you understand?"

  His voice was not loud, but Eunuch Sun subconsciously straightened his body slightly.

  "Yes, Your Majesty."
