Chapter 139 The Emperor's Favored Concubine is Heartbroken (35)

With his long legs crossed, Helian Yu looked at the sunset glowing like flames in the sky. He was unusually quiet, and there seemed to be a hint of sadness on his face.

sad?

Shen Qingjiao felt that she must be dazzled, otherwise how could she see such a thing on a generous and confident Helian Yu.

She rubbed her eyes and looked up at the sky, which was gradually getting darker.

It’s getting late, we should make something to eat.

Shen Qingjiao went straight to the kitchen.

Helian Yu was still lying in the hammock, staring at the night sky quietly without saying a word.

After a while, Shen Qingjiao came out of the kitchen with a basin of potatoes in her hand.

The potatoes were baked until their skin was black.

Sitting at the stone table, she picked a larger potato and broke it with her hands.

The potatoes reveal their ripe core and are filled with fragrance.

Shen Qingjiao sprinkled some chili powder and salt in it, walked to the hammock and handed it to Helian Yu.

"This time, I buried the potatoes in the stove ash and cooked them. How do you like it?"

Helian Yu took the potato.

The strong aroma of potatoes at the tip of his nose stunned him for a moment.

After taking a bite, a strange yet familiar taste instantly came to my mind.

Seeing his dazed look, Shen Qingjiao laughed even more happily, "Look at you, you seem to have lost your soul. Are the potatoes I made so delicious?"

Helian Yu remained silent.

After a few seconds, crystal tears rolled in his eyes.

The taste of these potatoes is almost exactly the same as the ones his mother made...

Seeing that Helian Yu looked immersed in the past, Shen Qingjiao raised her eyebrows slightly and did not disturb him.

Turning back to the stone table, Shen Qingjiao picked up a potato from the basin, broke it open, blew it hard, and took a light bite.

The corners of his mouth unconsciously rose up, and he smiled happily.

Potatoes cooked in stove ash will have a smell of wood ash, which enhances the aroma of the potatoes. The potatoes are sweet and sticky, and you can't stop eating them.

Before she knew it, she had easily finished the three potatoes.

Shen Qingjiao suddenly felt that Helian Yu was too quiet.

She turned to look at him.

I noticed that he was eating very slowly, bite by bite, as if he was recalling something, and his melancholy became more and more intense.

"Are you sad about something?" Shen Qingjiao couldn't help asking when she saw him looking half dead.

After a long while, Helian Yu slowly spoke, "On this day last year, my mother left me forever."

Shen Qingjiao was stunned when she suddenly heard this sad story.

After thinking for a while, she tried to comfort him.

"I heard that after a mother dies, she will turn into stars in the sky to protect her children. So, your mother must be watching you from the sky right now."

Helian Yu laughed and shook his head, "I'm not missing my mother, because I will be reunited with her soon. I just feel sorry for my father, and I want the old man to send the black-headed one off."

"Are you going to die? But you are still very young." Shen Qingjiao asked in confusion.

She looked at him carefully again and saw that Helian Yu had black hair and firm muscles, and was in his prime, in his twenties.

Helian Yu smiled faintly, "I didn't tell you, I'm sick. The witch doctor said that I won't live to be twenty-four. I'm twenty-three this year, which means I have less than a year left to live..."

Just as he was feeling sad, a slender hand suddenly reached out and placed three fingers on his pulse.

"What are you going to do?" When someone suddenly grabbed his vital point, Helian Yu unconsciously tried to hide.

Shen Qingjiao held him down with her other hand and glanced at him unhappily, "Don't move, I'll treat you."

"Can you treat illnesses?" Helian Yu looked at her in shock.

Shen Qingjiao hummed lightly.

After a few seconds, she withdrew her hand, raised her eyes to look at Helian Yu, and said affirmatively, "You are poisoned, and the toxin is eroding your vitality, but don't worry, I am here, and I will not let you die."

Hearing this, Helian Yu's expression was gloomy, and he shook his head gently, "The witch doctor said that my disease cannot be cured. This poison has been there since my mother's womb, and this disease was discovered too late, and it is already incurable."

Shen Qingjiao sneered, "I can say that the witch doctor is either a quack or has ulterior motives, because your disease is not something you were born with, someone poisoned you."

"You said someone poisoned me?" Helian Yu suddenly opened his eyes wide and said in disbelief.

"Witch doctor, are they in cahoots with him?" He muttered with his head down.

He felt that at that moment, his whole world was collapsing.

Shen Qingjiao didn't bother him.

Helian Yu was born into the royal family of Xirong and was the most beloved prince of the King of Xirong.

It's not surprising that he would encounter such a thing.

After digesting this matter, Helian Yu looked up at Shen Qingjiao and said doubtfully, "Your Majesty just said that you can cure my illness?"

"Yes, that's right," Shen Qingjiao nodded confidently and patted his shoulder generously, "Don't worry, you'll be fine with me here."

Helian Yu looked at her with complicated eyes, and a barely perceptible sigh escaped from his lips.

He said quietly, "Your Majesty is so young, how can your medical skills be very good? But it doesn't matter, I don't have many days left to live, even if Your Majesty fails, I have no regrets."

Hearing this, Shen Qingjiao became angry.

Damn it, she wanted to treat him with good intentions.

This man actually questioned her medical skills?

Shen Qingjiao suddenly raised her hand and intended to slap Helian Yu on the back of the head to wake him up and stop talking in his sleep.

Helian Yu reacted quickly. Before Shen Qingjiao could reach out her hand, he had already dodged quickly.

Shen Qingjiao had no place to vent her anger, which made her even more annoyed, so she just started cursing.

"How dare you look down on my medical skills! Are you blind? I said I can cure you, and you still want to insult my medical skills? Aren't potatoes delicious? I can't stop you from talking!"

Seeing Shen Qingjiao's face puffed up with anger, just like an angry pufferfish, Helian Yu couldn't help laughing and said, "Don't be angry, Madam. I believe it."

Staring at the gentle smile of the man opposite her, Shen Qingjiao's anger slowly dissipated.

The exterior wall of Yongshou Palace.

Huo Haochu was patrolling nearby and heard a man's voice coming from inside.

He turned over and jumped onto the palace wall, looked down, and saw Helian Yu inside.

Huo Haochu's face suddenly turned pale.

The third prince was so rude that he once again ignored the palace rules and broke into Concubine Shen’s palace!

He flew down from the palace wall in anger, drew his sword and pointed it at Helian Yu, his voice low and faintly threatening.

"I just said that the Third Prince cannot enter the harem. Could it be that the Third Prince wants to force me to report him to the Emperor?"

Helian Yu glanced at Huo Haochu, and then looked at Shen Qingjiao indifferently, "Madam, I am not the only patient in front of you now."

Shen Qingjiao was stunned. "What do you mean? Could it be..."

She quickly walked up to Huo Haochu, grabbed his hand and took his pulse.

After a moment, Shen Qingjiao breathed a sigh of relief.

She looked up at Helian Yu, her eyes slightly complaining, "Don't talk nonsense in the future, he is in good health."

A mysterious smile appeared on Helian Yu's lips, and his voice was frivolous and joyful.

"My lady, I am not lying. General Huo is indeed ill, but he is different from me. He is mentally ill."
