Part 1 - Yu Nu Jiao / Jade Slave / Enslaved By Love

Chapter 188 I'm Waiting for You, Eunuch

The master and servant finally returned to Qianyuan Palace when the day was about to end.

The palace was brightly lit. Although the emperor's birthday would not be a big celebration, the palace servants still had to pay their respects to the emperor according to the rules, so no one dared to sleep at this time and was waiting in the courtyard.

But at this time, Yin Ji was in no mood to listen to these half-hearted congratulations. Cai Tianxi entered the palace gate first. Seeing that the palace servants were about to gather, he waved his hand and said, "Go away."

The palace servants didn't understand why, but they were very obedient and soon disappeared.

When Yin Ji entered the gate of Qianyuan Palace, the courtyard was empty, but it also made the lights in the side hall particularly eye-catching.

Xie Yun was still waiting for him.

Yin Ji felt a ‘pang’ in his heart and walked towards the side hall. When he was about to reach the door, he remembered that his wound had split open, and he was now half covered in blood.

"Cai Tianxi, get some clothes..."

Before he finished speaking, the lights in the side hall suddenly went out.

The lights in Qianyuan Palace were still flickering, as bright as day, but the darkness in front of him seemed to have disappeared.

Yin Ji stared at the dark window in front of him for a long time.

"Your Majesty, clothes..."

Cai Tianxi ran over breathlessly. He only heard the beginning and knew what Yin Ji meant. He went to get the clothes without him finishing his words, fearing that he would delay the emperor's business.

"No need."

Cai Tianxi was stunned. No need?

Didn't the emperor want to meet Xie Yun in a decent manner?

He opened his mouth to ask a question, but he closed his mouth as soon as he raised his eyes. Only then did he realize that the side hall was dark. 

Yin Ji sat down against the wall without any strength: "I am a little tired, I want to rest here, you go."

Cai Tianxi couldn't help it: "Your Majesty, call Miss Xie, she just rested, she won't fall asleep."

Yin Ji closed her eyes and leaned against the wall: "No, I just rest, don't disturb her."

Cai Tianxi was still unwilling, wanted to persuade but didn't know how to start, so he had to freeze in place.

"Go."

Yin Ji urged again, he seemed to be really tired to the extreme, his voice was so light and faint that Cai Tianxi couldn't bear to let him worry anymore.

Besides, there was no use for him to stay, it would only make the emperor more embarrassed.

He could only respond very lightly, bowed and retreated, but did not return to his room, but stood in the shadow of the palace wall, guarding Yin Ji from a distance.

This night seemed particularly long. The sun refused to rise. Cai Tianxi's legs and feet were numb from standing, but Yin Ji leaned against the wall without moving.

He was distressed. After hesitating for a long time, he bent down and picked up two stones on the ground. He quietly touched the side of the side hall and threw the stones in.

Xie Yun was startled: "Who?"

No one answered outside. She waited for a moment. Another stone was thrown in. She raised her hand and pushed open the window. She saw a clumsy shadow hiding behind the lampstand in a panic.
