As Bai Lan left the boat hall, a palace maid walked hurriedly to the side of Concubine Xian, glanced at her with anxiety in her eyes.
The virtuous concubine glanced at her and passed by. With a smile on her lips and a gentle voice, she said to Emperor Zhou:
"Your Majesty, I just drank two glasses of cold wine. Maybe the alcohol has taken its toll on me. I feel a little tired now. I want to go out for a walk."
Seeing that she looked unhappy, Emperor Zhou nodded in agreement.
"If you feel unwell, go to the Yage and rest."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Concubine Xian bowed to Emperor Zhou and the Queen Mother and left the boat hall through the side door.
"Miss."
The palace maid just now followed Concubine Xian to a deserted place, looked around vigilantly, and whispered something in Concubine Xian's ear.
There was shock and a hint of cruelty in Concubine Xian's eyes.
"Where is it! Take me there quickly!"
The elegant pavilion at the stern was a private room for the nobles on board to rest. As soon as Concubine Shu got on board, she was led here by the waiter on the ship.
She was so focused on her restoration today that she didn't notice that the waiter who led the way was a little strange.
As soon as she entered the house, the maid beside her screamed and turned to escape, but the door was blocked from the outside and she could not escape.
She was frightened by the maid's scream and broke out in a cold sweat. She looked at the maid and shouted, "What the hell! What are you screaming about!"
"Your Majesty! Someone is dead! Your Majesty!" The maid looked at the bed behind Concubine Shu with horror, her voice trembling with fear.
Shu Guipin was so frightened by her that she turned around suddenly, looked behind her, and saw a horrifying scene.
A blood-covered figure was lying on the clean and comfortable bed. The blood dyed the bed red, looking scary and weird.
She was about to scream when she realized something was wrong. The figure on the bed looked familiar.
"I'll go call someone!" The maid responded and was about to open the window to call someone, but was stopped by Concubine Shu.
"Hush!" she said coldly.
After saying that, she quickly walked towards the bed. She leaned over to look at the person on the bed, and it was indeed that familiar face.
"Ade!"
Shu Guipin's expression suddenly changed, and she rushed to the bed. She stretched out her hand to feel his breath, her fingers trembling a little.
He breathed a sigh of relief when he found that the man was still breathing weakly.
For a moment, he didn't even care that there was someone beside him, and he stood up to check his wound.
"Who hurt you like this? Where have you been these days?" Shu Guipin looked a little panicked. She tore off the straps on her body and blocked his bleeding wound.
"Your Majesty..." The person on the bed heard the familiar voice and tried to open his eyes. He struggled to get up, but was held down by Concubine Shu.
"Don't move! I'll stop the bleeding for you first!"
Ade's eyes were filled with struggle and anxiety. He wanted to get up, but he was covered in wounds and had been given cartilage powder, so he couldn't get up. He could only hold the hand of Concubine Shu to stop the bleeding. His voice was dry and hoarse, and he had to use a lot of strength to barely speak:
"My queen..., hurry up...it's a trap, they are trying to hurt you..."
The hand that Shu Guipin was pressing on his wound paused, blood flowed out from her fingers, as if it couldn't be stopped. She looked at the pale, dying man on the bed, her eyes reddened.
"Stop the bleeding first...don't talk!" Shu Guipin looked anxious. She stood up and walked to the cabinet in the elegant pavilion, searching everywhere.
Seeing the maid standing in the room blankly, he said to her sternly:
"What are you standing there for! Hurry up and find me some medicine! Medicine to stop bleeding! If you can't find any, I'll chop off your head!"
But the dragon boat for cruising the lake is only used once a year. There would be no hemostatic medicine, and we couldn't invite the imperial physician to accompany us.
So, the hemostatic medicine was not found, but a knock on the door was heard first.
"Knock-"
"Knock-"
Shu Guipin looked towards the door vigilantly, fearing that someone would push the door open and come in. The door that had been blocked just now seemed to be able to be opened.
"Aunt? Aunt, the Queen Mother is calling you over."
"Aunt? Are you in there?"
Shen Zhiyi's voice rang out from outside the door, and Concubine Shu breathed a sigh of relief. She seemed to have thought of something and walked over quickly, opening the door.
He pulled Shen Zhiyi into the room.
Shen Zhiyi was pulled so hard that he staggered. When he finally stood up, he saw Shu Guipin covered in blood. He was so scared that he took two steps back and saw the bloody person on the bed.
He suddenly opened his eyes wide, looked at Concubine Shu in disbelief, with fear in his eyes:
"Aunt...Aunt, did you kill someone?"
Shu Guipin's mind was full of trying to stop Ade's bleeding. She didn't care about Shen Zhiyi's frightened face and said to her coldly:
"No matter what you saw, you can't tell anyone a word, not even the Queen Mother! Go find the imperial physician now and tell him that I accidentally cut my hand and asked him to get some blood-stopping medicine. Don't let the imperial physician come with you, do you understand?"
Concubine Shu looked at Shen Zhiyi with a cold face.
"But, aunt..." Shen Zhiyi came to his senses, hesitated a little, and wanted to ask clearly what had happened.
I was frightened by the fierce look of Concubine Shu: "Go now! Go quickly and come back soon."
"Yes."
"Don't let anyone see it!" Shu Guipin warned.
Shen Zhiyi nodded hurriedly, opened the door and walked out.
Concubine Shu turned back and looked at Ade, who was becoming increasingly weaker and weaker on the bed. Suddenly, a huge fear filled her heart.
Ade has been with her for most of her life. He has been with her since she was young. When she became a lady, he was her constant bodyguard, keeping her safe and sound.
Later, she wanted to enter the palace and become the most noble woman in the world, so she found a way out for him and let him go. She thought he left according to her own arrangement, but six months after she entered the palace, she saw him among the newly sent eunuchs.
He said that he was the lady's bodyguard and he couldn't do anything except protecting her.
Thus, she became the high and mighty imperial concubine, and he became a humble eunuch like a shadow. He spent half his life with her in that gorgeous and lonely palace, guarding her, doing things for her without regrets, and protecting her.
To her, Ade was like a shadow. How could a person lose his shadow? Therefore, Ade could not die.
She looked at the person on the bed and saw that his breath was getting weaker and weaker. Her eyes became more anxious. How come this person had been gone for so long and still hadn't come back?
"Go and see if Zhiyi has come back?" She frowned and ordered the little palace maid who was standing behind her, not daring to say anything.
"Yes."
The little palace maid was so scared that she was sweating all over and her face turned pale. She turned around and walked out carefully.
