Fast Travel: The Hundred-Life Couple

There are only three women in the Buddhist temple, Ye Xiaoli, Madam Liu, and Liu Bailian.

Mrs. Liu is too old and ugly to be considered, while Gu Dongxu is young and energetic. Everyone thinks that Liu Bailian is not perfect, and Ye Xiaoli seems to be the most suitable one, because Gu Xiong is powerless.

"Let's go, Madam Gu. You have an obligation to protect the emperor's health. It's a blessing that you saved the emperor today." Eunuch An's voice was sharp, and he pointed his whisk at the room where the emperor was.

Madam Liu and Liu Bailian lowered their heads, their eyes full of gloating. After today, let's see if this bitch still has the nerve to call herself the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion, and what qualifications does she have to suppress her?

"It is my honor to share the emperor's worries." Ye Xiaoli held back her tears, wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and followed Eunuch An into the room.

Liu Bailian stared at her back, malice surging in her eyes.

But Ye Xiaoli had just taken two steps when she saw that the eyes of others looking at her were gradually becoming horrified.

"You, you you you...what's wrong with your face?"

Eunuch An was concentrating on leading the way. When he noticed something unusual happening to others, he looked back in confusion. Only then did he realize that Ye Xiaoli had developed many bean-sized blisters on his face. Each blisters seemed to contain a pool of pus, which looked very scary.

Then the herpes spread from the face, and several more grew on the pink neck. The number of herpes gradually increased and became densely packed.

Everyone moved away from her in fear, as if she were a monster.

Ye Xiaoli raised her innocent eyes, as if she didn't know what was going on: "What's wrong with my face?"

She subconsciously raised her hand to touch it, and saw that her hands were also covered with blisters. She was so scared that she screamed: "Ah - what is this? My hands, my arms, my face -!"

Eunuch An hurried into the room to report the sudden situation to the emperor.

In the room, the emperor didn't look like he was taking any medicine at all. It was obvious that he was instigated by someone to leave the palace on purpose to destroy Ye Xiaoli's innocence and to avenge the fact that the wife of Marquis Yingwu refused to be the prince's consort and chose Marquis Yingwu instead.

"Your Majesty, the Marquis Yingwu's wife is looking terrifying right now. Look at this...?"

The emperor looked suspicious and displeased. "Is it because she didn't want to serve me and did something on purpose? Where's the accompanying imperial physician? Go and take a look at her! If it was just an accident, it's fine. But if she did it on purpose, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

On his fat face, a pair of narrowed eyes flashed with coldness and were extremely sinister.

Eunuch An took the order and came out, signaling the imperial physician to take Ye Xiaoli's pulse. Fortunately, the herpes had not yet spread all over his arm, so the imperial physician still had a place to start.

Even though the imperial physician was knowledgeable and experienced, he still felt a little nervous when he saw Ye Xiaoli. He swallowed his saliva, diligently put a handkerchief on Ye Xiaoli's wrist, and then began to take his pulse.

After a while, the diagnosis results came out. Although no one knew why Ye Xiaoli suddenly fell ill, she might be disfigured if she was not careful this time. Her face and body were covered with horrible pink round scars, which should not have been intentional by Ye Xiaoli.

After all, if a woman's face is ruined, her life is ruined.

The emperor was also thinking: "If she serves me well, I might even take her into the palace as a token of my gratitude for saving me. She can enjoy wealth and glory. This is definitely better than living a life of widowhood in the Marquis's mansion."

"It seems that this is really an accident."

Deep down, he was unwilling to admit that Ye Xiaoli had abandoned him again and chosen Gu Xiong, just like Xiao Rumian had done before, even at the risk of ruining her own appearance.

"Then... let the Crown Prince's wife come in and serve." He said leisurely as he half-lay back on the couch.

"Your Majesty..." Eunuch An looked up suddenly.

"Ok?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will go and call the Crown Prince's wife right away." A drop of cold sweat broke out on Eunuch An's forehead.

The Emperor knew everything! He knew that he had been bribed by Madam Liu to help her daughter set up this trap. But in the end, he didn't trap Ye Xiaoli, and instead suffered the consequences of his own actions. I wonder if Madam Liu will regret it.

The fact is, Mrs. Liu regretted it the moment she saw Ye Xiaoli's face.

The emperor is not someone they can fool around with. It would be fine if they could successfully sleep with Ye Xiaoli today, but if something unexpected happens to Ye Xiaoli, someone will have to take his place.

Otherwise, the emperor will not let it go.

Their Liu family could not bear the emperor's wrath. At this moment, she was terrified and regretted it deeply.

Liu Bailian had no sense of crisis in that regard. Seeing Ye Xiaoli's miserable face, she felt extremely happy.

However, the next moment, she was no longer happy.

Because after Eunuch An came out, he dodged Ye Xiaoli and walked to her side, bowed to her, and said with a smile that did not reach his eyes: "Madam, please."

He was also very upset and afraid that he would lose the emperor's favor from then on, but he did not dare to blame the emperor. Ye Xiaoli himself was so miserable, so he vented all his anger on the mother and daughter of the Liu family.

"Ah? What?" Liu Bailian's smile froze, her joy coming to an abrupt end. She pointed at herself in disbelief, "Me?"

"Yes, the wife of Marquis Yingwu is unwell now. You are the only one present who is most suitable to relieve the emperor's urgent need. Wouldn't you be willing to do so? Madam Liu, what do you think?"

Eunuch An's voice contained a hint of threat.

"I..." Liu Bailian looked at Madam Liu as if asking for help, "Mother!"

The emperor is ugly and fat, so she doesn't want to serve him!

Madam Liu's eyes evaded her. "Bai Lian, having the honor of helping the Emperor detoxify is a great honor for our family. Although you are already Dong Xu's wife, the Gu family has always been loyal to the emperor and patriotic. I believe that if he knew about this, he would definitely understand you."

"No, I don't want it! Mother, please help me think of a solution!" Liu Bailian stepped back repeatedly and screamed loudly. Eunuch An's face was gloomy.

Ye Xiaoli stood aside sobbing with her face covered. When Liu Bailian turned her confused and helpless eyes to her, a pair of smiling eyes appeared from between her fingers.

"You bitch, did you deliberately make yourself look like that?" Liu Bailian shouted at Ye Xiaoli. Suddenly, she looked at Eunuch An with a happy expression, "Eunuch An, she must have done it on purpose. She must have prepared an antidote for her face."

Eunuch An was hesitant when he heard a loud noise of a teacup breaking from the room behind him. His heart tightened. The emperor was already impatient, so he quickly signaled several guards to forcibly take Liu Bailian in.

"What are you doing? Let me go!" She was still yelling at the last moment. With her resistance, the emperor's face became more and more ugly, and his eyes became more and more fierce.

After the guards came out, Eunuch An took them to drive Ye Xiaoli, Madam Liu and others away, and they could vaguely hear Liu Bailian's pleading and crying.

Mrs. Liu was very worried, but Ye Xiaoli felt it was very pleasant.

Two hours later, the emperor, served by Eunuch An, walked out of the room with a satisfied look on his face and headed back to the palace. When he passed by Ye Xiaoli, he took a curious look at her and immediately covered his eyes in pain.
