Deep Palace Pet Peach Blossom Flawless

The five people stood on the five corners of the Ruyi Terrace respectively. Lan Qingwu found that although the Ruyi Terrace was circular, its five corners were vaguely connected to form the shape of a five-pointed star.

Lan Qingwu stood in one of the corners, looking up at the ginkgo tree that blocked out the sun overhead. Pray? Make a wish? What should he wish for now? Settle down and live a good life here? Or...

Before Lan Qingwu could come to her senses, she suddenly heard a "boom" in her ears, and the Ruyi platform under her feet suddenly turned. Before Lan Qingwu could come to her senses, she was caught off guard and fell to the ground.

There were cries of surprise from all around. Ruping reacted the fastest. She rushed to Ruyi Terrace and protected Lan Qingwu. After being frightened, Ruhan also ran to Ruyi Terrace.

The Ruyi Platform had stopped rotating at some point, and Lan Qingwu realized that the five people who were praying on it had all fallen down. Ruping wanted to help Lan Qingwu up, but Lan Qingwu frowned and said, "No, my feet hurt."

Lan Qingwu said to the slightly flustered Ruhan, "Ruhan, go to the Imperial Hospital and invite Imperial Physician Nie. If there are other Imperial Physicians, invite them as well."

Ruhan calmed himself down and hurriedly took the order and left.

Liang Guipin, enduring the pain in her ankle, comforted the other girls in another prayer corner: "Sisters, please don't move for now, lest your bones get injured. Moving will only make the injury worse. I've asked Hongying to call the imperial physician, and a sedan chair will be arriving shortly. Please be patient!"

Wenpin endured the pain, her face almost wrinkled. "What on earth is going on? Why is the Ruyi Terrace spinning for no reason?"

Concubine Li also said, "This Ruyi Terrace weighs over a thousand pounds and, like the Ruyi Tree, is over a thousand years old. How could it turn for no reason?"

Naturally, Han Meiren couldn't figure it out and couldn't answer them.

Liang Guipin suppressed her hot temper and said, "Don't worry about Ruyi Terrace for now. Just wait for the imperial physician and the sedan chair to arrive."

Emperor Shenwu was taking a walk in the Wanhua Garden of the imperial palace, and Concubine Chen was accompanying him.

Li Xiang saw Hongying and Ruhan coming in a hurry, and hurriedly asked the eunuch behind him to ask what happened.

In a moment, Hongying followed the eunuch to the imperial court and replied, "Your Majesty, several masters have fallen on Ruyi Terrace. I am just about to go to the Imperial Hospital to fetch the imperial physician."

Emperor Shenwu was listening rather nonchalantly when Li Xiang behind him softly reminded him, "Your Majesty, the one who just went to summon the imperial physician was Ruhan from Suowu Palace."

When Concubine Chen, who was standing beside the emperor, heard Li Xiang's whisper, her eyes narrowed slightly and she turned to Emperor Shenwu.

Emperor Shenwu's expression suddenly changed. Without any hesitation, he strode towards Ruyi Terrace.

Concubine Chen hurriedly followed the emperor's footsteps.

Ru Ping knelt on the ground worriedly, letting Lan Qingwu lean slightly against her: "Master, does it hurt a lot? If I had known..."

If I had known this, I wouldn’t have let the master out. I don’t know how the emperor would react if he knew!

Lan Qingwu, in turn, comforted Ruping: "It was just an accident, but this Ruyi Terrace must have some mysterious and wonderful things, which is why it rotates for no reason."

After a while, the concubines in Ruyi Terrace were almost impatient, and the anxious Ruping also became impatient: "Why hasn't Ruhan come back yet? The imperial physician should..."

Before she could finish her words, Ru Ping paused. She quickly straightened her knees and knelt down. Lan Qingwu was puzzled when she saw a figure in black hurriedly walking towards her. Lan Qingwu was stunned: "Your Majesty..."

Emperor Shenwu had already ascended to the Ruyi Terrace and came to Lan Qingwu's side. The emperor bent down and held Lan Qingwu horizontally in his arms: "Concubine Chen, stay here and wait for the sedan chair to arrive. Then go to the nearby Ruyi Pavilion to ask the imperial physician to treat her."

Concubine Wen watched helplessly as the emperor carried Concubine Yi away in his arms, leaving only his back to everyone. That man...didn't even glance at the few people left on Ruyi Stage.

The jealousy in Li Guiren's eyes could hardly be concealed.

Concubine Chen just turned her head slightly and watched the scene calmly.

Emperor Shenwu carried Lan Qingwu to Ruyi Pavilion. He gently placed Lan Qingwu on the bed and asked, "Where does it hurt?"

Emperor Shenwu asked as he took off Lan Qingwu's shoes and socks. He saw that Lan Qingwu's snow-white right foot was red and swollen. Lan Qingwu replied softly, "It's not too serious. It doesn't hurt much."

Emperor Shenwu turned to Ruping again: "What's going on?"

Ruping told the truth.

Lan Qingwu and Emperor Shenwu were whispering to each other when Ruhan arrived with Nie Wushuang.

Emperor Shenwu waved his hand and urged, "Check on the wound!"

After Nie Wushuang paid his respects, he glanced at the redness and swelling on Lan Qingwu's feet and quickly lowered his head. "Your Majesty, your Majesty's injury is not serious. I have brought some ointment for external injuries. Please apply it to your Majesty. Just don't move around for a few days."

Emperor Shenwu reached out to take the ointment and gently applied it to Lan Qingwu with his own hands. Nie Wushuang, Ruping and Ruhan all lowered their heads deeply and did not dare to raise them.

Soon, Concubine Chen and the other concubines arrived at Ruyi Pavilion. The injured concubines were helped to sit on the chairs one by one. Concubine Chen bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the imperial physician has arrived."

Concubine Liang led several concubines to bow and salute Emperor Shenwu.

Emperor Shenwu said directly: "No need to be so polite, let the imperial physician take a look at the injuries, and then you, Concubine Chen, make arrangements and let them return to the palace."

Concubine Chen replied respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Emperor Shenwu said no more and wanted to pick up Lan Qingwu's underwear, but Ruping was quick to help Lan Qingwu put them on first.

The Emperor paused, Lan Qingwu glanced up at him, reminding him not to be too obvious. The Emperor simply picked Lan Qingwu up and turned to the door, "Concubine Chen, I leave this to you!"

Concubine Chen wanted to say something but stopped herself. She opened her eyes slightly and watched the emperor's figure gradually disappear from her sight.

Liang Guipin looked at Concubine Chen's always tender face and couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips slightly.

Lan Qingwu was held in the arms of Emperor Shenwu and walked through more than a dozen palaces and passed through half of the Miaoling Palace.

The eunuchs on the palace road knelt on the ground when they saw the imperial carriage, not daring to look up. Emperor Shenwu asked softly, "Ruoruo, are you afraid?"

Lan Qingwu's heart trembled slightly. Was he afraid? Was he afraid of getting hurt? Or was he afraid... that if the emperor's gradual favoritism towards him were known to the six palaces, he would be even more hostile and framed by others. Was he afraid?

Lan Qingwu thought she was not afraid, because she had someone to rely on both physically and mentally, and she did not ask for anything, nor would she allow herself to be bullied again.

Lan Qingwu raised her white hand and gently wiped the sweat off the Emperor Shenwu's forehead: "The weak are not afraid."

Emperor Shenwu said firmly: "Don't be afraid, I am always here!"

A smile slowly spread across Lan Qingwu's face.

Back in Jingyou Pavilion, Emperor Shenwu and Lan Qingwu discussed the Ruyi Terrace's sudden rotation.

Emperor Shenwu was also puzzled. "I later sent people to Ruyi Terrace. Ruyi Terrace weighs over a thousand pounds and is indestructible. Dozens of guards tried their best but couldn't budge the stone platform even a little bit. It's really strange."

Lan Qingwu recalled what happened on Ruyi Stage and found nothing special about it.
