Your Majesty, Eunuch Lin is Pregnant !

Chapter 44 🍃

CH 44

Xu Ruyun was so scared by his question that she kneeled down immediately, "I...I just wanted to take a walk with the Empress Dowager to Yangxin Hall, and I never tried to hurt Concubine Xian . Please trust me, Your Majesty!"

Ye Shengxuan glanced at her sophisticatedly and said, "That's good . You know that I lifted your grounding ban for the sake of your father . And I'm sure it won't be just a grounding ban next time if you still have no sense of regret . "

Xu Ruyun was trembling with fear and she dared not to say much .

Ye Shengxuan felt very annoyed just seeing her, so he waved at her impatiently, "Alright, just leave . "

"I'm leaving now, Your Majesty . "

After Xu Ruyun had left, Ye Shengxuan finally shifted his focus on Helian Chacha . Seeing that she was still shaking because of the huge pain, he felt as if his heart was wrenched, "Come here, let me check your wound . "

She unconsciously stepped back a bit and evaded Ye Shengxuan's hand .

When she realized what she had just done, Ye Shengxuan was already looking her right into the eyes, so she explained immediately, "Your Majesty, it is not what you think, I was just..."

Before she could finish the sentence, Ye Shengxuan spoke up, "I know, you are still not used to me . It's alright . I can wait . "

Helian Chacha's lip corner twitched a bit as she thought maybe this man had misunderstood something .

But she also felt it might be a good thing that he still thought she had not got used to him . Right now she was almost living amidst enemies, and it would be really hard to survive in this harem without his protection . Also, she could use this excuse to avoid some unnecessary intimacy with him .

Thinking of that, she looked up at Ye Shengxuan secretly and found he was staring at her with his bright eyes .

She felt a bit embarrassed, so she looked down and didn't speak for a long while, "Well...Your Majesty, I have a question but I'm not sure if I should ask you about it . "

"Just go ahead . "

"Why do you want me to be your concubine?"

That was really a good question . Ye Shengxuan was shocked for a second, but he soon got his answer and said with a poker face, "Because I am happy to do so . "

"..."

These simple words answered all the following questions from Helian Chacha . But after all, for someone like Ye Shengxuan who was born to be cold and emotionless, it was barely possible to make a long love confession .

And if he did say something romantic, she would suspect that the man in front of her might be a imposter .

After a while of silence between the two, Helian Chacha thought of another thing, "Your Majesty, when can I move out?"

Yangxin Hall was indeed a nice place, but as long as she lived here, those concubines would try their best to kick her out . So, instead of defending herself, she decided to attack back .

She had remembered all of those who came to Yangxin Hall today to start the war . The day that she got fully recovered would be the day of suffering for them .

"Why do you want to move out? You don't like living here?" Hearing that she wanted to move out, Ye Shengxuan frowned immediately, "Or, you've changed your mind after hearing what Mother said to you?"

Helian Chacha explained to him immediately, "Her Highness did make her point . Besides, Yangxin Hall is your bedroom, and only the Empress is allowed to sleep in the bedroom of the Emperor . I am just a concubine and I have been living here for more than half a month . In the past I could say I was wounded, but now I will be criticized if I still don't move out after my recovery . "
