Under a tree not far away, the little girl Chunqu heard Li'er yelling and cursing at the people in the imperial kitchen. She thought she was making a veiled complaint and secretly turned away.

The people in Yanxi Palace saw that she was young and easy to bully, so they threw all these thankless tasks upon her.

It was she who went to Yikun Palace to snatch the emperor last time, and it was she who came to keep an eye on Concubine Bu this time.

I'm really afraid that you will be angry and punish her.

Even if Concubine Bu didn't care, Li'er beside her didn't seem like a good-tempered person.

When her mother sent her to the palace, she instructed her not to offend anyone, not even a eunuch or a palace maid who did odd jobs.

She couldn't help but stand here, but she couldn't leave either. She felt mixed emotions and turned her back to Bu Ji, secretly wiping away her tears.

"Li'er, you and Yanzhi go in. You will cook dinner tonight."

"But young master, you are alone..."

"It's okay for me. This is right in front of our palace. No one will do anything to me. Go and cook, so that everyone won't have to go hungry with me."

Including Bu Ji, there were only four people in Yikun Palace, and there was also a little eunuch to perform the auspicious ceremony.

Although they were palace maids and eunuchs, they were only fourteen or fifteen years old, which was the period of growth.

She is kneeling here as punishment, and everyone can't help even if they don't eat.

Li'er looked at her reluctantly and took Yanzhi back to the palace.

Bu Ji looked at the high vermilion wall in front of him. The layer upon layer of green tiles were like airtight wings, pressing down on him so hard that he couldn't breathe.

Whoever said that the emperor didn't save her, Cui Lihua might have misunderstood.

But she deceived Li Ji, the crime of deceiving the emperor, so kneeling as punishment was already a good enough punishment.

Not long after Li'er and Yanzhi entered, it started to rain heavily outside. It was a rainy night with dark clouds and roaring thunder. Raindrops as big as beans fell madly from the sky. The dark night sky seemed to be collapsing.

The rain water flowing down from the eaves gathered into small streams on the palace roads, and the whole world was immersed in the rain.

Bu Ji closed her blurry eyes, and just as her consciousness was slowly fading away...

The hot temperature suddenly dropped and an unstoppable rainstorm came, soaking her from head to toe. She shivered all over and became conscious. An irresistible coldness penetrated her limbs and bones.

The cold rain washed over Bu Ji's frail body. The dried blood stains on his back were slowly mixed with the rain and formed into a pink stream, meandering down along the low ground.

Bu Ji murmured unconsciously, her pale face was devoid of a trace of blood, her shoulders trembled, her teeth chattered in the trembling, it was so cold! Water drops flowed down her face, the dark clouds and the soaked dress exposed her graceful curves, her slender body looked very weak.

Her body felt like it had fallen into an ice kiln. She instantly felt cold all over and shivered with cold.

However, it wasn't long before the burning pain spread, as if her internal organs were being burned by fire. Her body and mind were in the torment of ice and fire, unable to escape.

Bu Ji breathed weakly, his eyelids covered by his eyelashes like a trimmed shadow, with slightly damp black hair hanging down, and from a distance, it looked like a curtain covering his body.

At this moment, her eyes were dazed and her consciousness was in a semi-comatose state. She no longer responded to any sound from the outside world.

A strong feeling of dizziness came over Bu Ji, and he felt darkness in front of his eyes. He felt powerless at the back of his neck. Finally, he could no longer hold on. His head tapped the ground, and he fainted and lay on the ground.

"Noble Bu!"

In the heavy rain, Chunqu ran over from under the tree with a shout, his feet slipped and he knelt directly in front of her.

She picked up the unconscious woman on the ground and was shocked.

Noble Bu's face was pale, his eyes were tightly closed, his body was wet and hot.

"Someone is coming, someone is coming."

Chunqu thought she was dead. He was so scared that he let go of her hand, collapsed on the ground and started screaming.

The heavy rain was like someone filling a basin with water and pouring it down continuously. The rain was so heavy that it could cover people's faces.

Looking from afar, people in the rain, whether sitting on the ground or lying on the ground, are being washed by the rain over and over again.

The gate of Yikun Palace has never been closed.

However, there was a loud thunder and Chunqu's cry for help was drowned out. She got up from the ground, her body covered with wet mud and weeds, and staggered into the palace gate.

He was not careful and tripped over the threshold and fell out.

His head hit the rock, and a large tear appeared in the middle of his forehead, and blood started gushing out instantly.

Hearing sounds of screaming and crying out in pain from outside the house, Li'er ran out from the small kitchen and when she looked up she found that it was raining heavily outside.

Her heart suddenly tightened and she ran out.

Seeing Chunqu on the ground, he was startled, quickly pulled her up, and asked anxiously.

"Why are you here? Where is my young master?"

The two stood in the heavy rain, and had to shout to hear each other clearly.

Chunqu's face was pale, and the blood on her forehead was quickly washed away by the rain. She was in a panic, gesticulating and shouting.

"Noble Lady Bu is dead, Noble Lady Bu is dead..."

Li'er heard her words clearly, pushed her away, looked deathly pale, and stumbled out.

"Little Master!"

"Little Master!"

Following her footsteps, Yanzhi also ran out.

When Yanzhi walked up, she saw Sister Li'er holding Bu Ji's "corpse", and she burst into tears.

Li'er looked at her and shouted.

"What are you doing standing there? Go get the doctor."

"The young master just fainted."

After Yanzhi heard it clearly, she didn't even have time to respond or nod, and ran towards the Imperial Hospital.

Li'er looked at Zuoji and Chunqu running out, waved to them to come forward, and said anxiously.

"Quick, help me get the young master in."

Chunqu and Zuoji each held up one of Bu Ji's arms, while Li'er supported her in front.

Several people hurriedly carried Bu Ji into the palace.

Li'er asked Zuoji to step back and called Chunqu to help her. She wiped Bu Ji's body and changed him into new underwear.

After a while, Yanzhi came back. Her hair was messy and she was wet all over. She looked so miserable.

"Where's the imperial doctor?"

When Li'er saw that there was no one behind her and she looked disappointed, she knew that something was wrong.

Even if the young lady is punished, the imperial physician is an official appointed by the court and cannot act according to the wind like those servants.

"what happened!"

She was so angry that she was ready to rush out to the Imperial Hospital to ask someone to treat the young lady.

Yanzhi called out to her, looking helpless.

"Sister Li'er, you don't have to go."

"The imperial physician on duty was sent away by Concubine Jia a long time ago, saying that he had a headache because he couldn't sleep at night."

Li'er looked at Chunqu standing aside, with a vicious look in his eyes, and asked seriously.

"When did your wife have a headache?"

Chunqu stammered and was unable to speak. She remembered that her mother had never had any headaches.

Li'er didn't have time to say anything to her and gave instructions to Yanzhi and Zuoji who were standing beside her.

"You two, keep an eye on the young lady. I'm going to Kunning Palace to invite the queen."

The Queen is on good terms with the young lady and is well versed in medicine, so she will definitely come to rescue her.
