Chapter 402: The Little Palace Maid Reluctant to End Her Life (9)

The prince is sick.

I haven't attended the morning court for two days.

Everyone in the know understood that this was a confrontation between the Crown Prince and the Emperor over political views in the court, and everyone else should avoid it if possible.

But for those who are not in the know, this is considered a good opportunity to curry favor with the prince.

There is no mistress in the Eastern Palace, not even a concubine who can take care of people.

Therefore, concubines who were not very sensitive to the political affairs of the previous dynasty would send capable palace maids or nannies to show their courtesy and express their gratitude.

When Shu Fei heard this from Mu Zhou, her expression changed:

"Did Concubine Chu send the nanny next to her to the Eastern Palace?"

"Yes, and Concubine Li also sent her maid to the Eastern Palace."

Mu Zhou added calmly.

Shu Fei sat up straight instantly.

She can't fall behind.

Shu Fei doesn't have many close confidants around her, so after much deliberation, she decided that it would be safest to let Mu Zhou go.

This is to prevent someone from being short-sighted and having inappropriate thoughts, which would anger the prince who is not interested in women.

How could she know that the person with the most active mind was Mu Zhou, the honest man in front of her.

Shu Fei immediately urged:

"Zhou'er, bring some supplements and go to the East Palace immediately."

Mu Zhou bowed slightly:

"Yes."

*

The people sent by Donggong, Mu Zhou and other concubines in the harem were together.

Everyone understood that it was just a formality and no one could get close to the prince, so they didn't care and were openly lazy.

Since Qin Huai was ambushed last time, the entire Eastern Palace was cleansed out, and those left behind were not only his confidants, but also the most tight-lipped ones.

The eunuchs and palace maids seemed to be mute, and you could hear a pin drop in the entire East Palace.

Mu Zhou was extremely bored here.

Early the next morning, a father-in-law passed by carrying medicinal food.

Mu Zhou recognized him as a young eunuch serving the prince.

He was accompanied by an imperial physician from the Eastern Palace.

Mu Zhou paused and stood in the corridor, looking a little hesitant.

The young eunuch naturally noticed Mu Zhou's hesitation, and he looked at him briefly.

Just as they were about to leave, Mu Zhou finally stepped forward to stop them:

"Sir, please stay."

She bowed slightly and said to the imperial physician:

"There's a folk remedy in my hometown that's extremely useful for old injuries to the muscles and bones."

As she spoke, she handed a piece of paper to the imperial physician.

After saying all this without any beginning or end, she left in a hurry.

The imperial physician opened it, took a look, and raised his eyebrows slightly.

*

Soon, they arrived at the prince's bedroom.

The young eunuch told his master everything about his encounter with Mu Zhou on the road.

His master was Wu Jiang, the chief eunuch serving the Crown Prince.

After hearing this, Wu Jiang's eyes rolled, and he thought of the night when His Highness visited Xiangyun Palace.

The senior palace maid beside Concubine Shu is extraordinary.

After he brought the medicine and the imperial physician into the house, he told Qin Huai about this matter.

Qin Huai's eyes flickered slightly as he looked towards the imperial physician.

The imperial physician immediately said:

"There is nothing wrong with Miss Mu's prescription. This time, when I went to collect prescriptions from the people, I came across this recipe. Originally, I wanted to give it to Your Highness to try."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has many old wounds on his body due to fighting in the battlefield in his early years.

Especially the penetrating wound in the shoulder.

Even though it has been healed for a long time, it still hurts more when it is cloudy or rainy.

The palace doctors were unable to cure the disease, and although the prince didn't care, his staff kept searching for folk remedies.

Unexpectedly, this little palace maid also had such thoughts.

I just don’t know how the little palace maid knew that the wound was on the shoulder?

The imperial physician was puzzled.

Just as he was wondering, he saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince staring at the prescription in a daze. The imperial physician's brows jumped, and suddenly an idea came to him.

Is it...

Did that little palace maid see it with her own eyes? !

The imperial physician who thought he had discovered the secret of the Eastern Palace lowered his head instantly, not daring to think any further.

After everyone left, Qin Huai still held the prescription.

The corner of the paper was wrinkled due to the pressure of his fingers.

His eyes were as black as ink, and his gaze was like sharp arrows as if it wanted to penetrate into the words.

Her handwriting was not very beautiful, as immature as that of a child who had just started learning to write, but her seriousness could be seen in every stroke.

The irritability of the past few days miraculously dissipated, and the cold and hard layer of ice on Qin Huai's body seemed to be gradually cracking.

He placed the prescription on the table and said calmly:

"Let her come here."

Wu Jiang was startled, and immediately realized who the prince was referring to as "she", and said hurriedly:

"Yes, slave, go right away."

The room became quiet. Qin Huai looked at the prescription on the table, his eyes changing.

The situation that day was so chaotic and dangerous that she even noticed the old injury on his shoulder.

An inexplicable emotion surged in Qin Huai's heart.

Until Mu Zhou entered the room, Qin Huai's eyes were dim and his expression was unfathomable.

Looking at her timid, thin and cautious appearance, Qin Huai's anger, which had arisen from noticing her feelings for her father a few days ago, finally dissipated a lot.

Forget it, considering her kindness, he would give her a few kind words of advice.

The ignorant little palace maid didn't know what was good and mistakenly thought that her father was the best match for her in the world.

That's normal, she hasn't read much and hasn't met any men outside.

He has to tolerate her.

Thinking of this, Qin Huai raised his hand to let her sit down, and glanced at Wu Jiang again.

Wu Jiang immediately understood and led all the bystanders out.

Qin Huai was wearing a moon-white robe today, which looked elegant and delicate. It was rare for him to wear such a light color, and it was surprisingly suitable for him.

Different from his previous elegance and dignity, his serious face added a bit of abstinence and coldness.

He didn't look at Mu Zhou again, but stretched out his slender and powerful fingers and pointed at the prescription on the table.

"What does this mean?"

Mu Zhou grabbed his sleeves and opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, his ears had already turned red.

After waiting for a while, he said:

"My father went hunting in the mountains in his early years. He was chased by a black bear and fell down the hillside. A branch pierced his shoulder. After the injury healed, rainy seasons were always particularly difficult. He was finally cured by a prescription from a wandering doctor."

She raised her head slightly and looked at the table, motioning:

"That's the recipe."

Qin Huai's expression remained unchanged as he continued:

"Why give it to me?"

The moment Mu Zhou's eyes met his, he looked away, his almond-shaped eyes trembling:

"That day, I saw the wound on His Highness's shoulder. It was very similar to my father's. I was worried that the Crown Prince would be here too..."

She bit her lower lip and said:

"Before applying the prescription, you need to massage it. The effect will be better if you apply it afterwards. When I was young, I often massaged my father. If Your Highness doesn't mind, I can teach you..."

"it is good."

Qin Huai immediately responded with a cold face, stood up and walked towards the inner room.

Mu Zhou was stunned.

Uh……

What she meant was to teach it to the imperial physician or the young eunuch, not that she would do it herself.

Seeing that she was still sitting there, Qin Huai raised his eyebrows and looked at her:

"Don't come in yet."

Mu Zhou was a little confused, but he subconsciously stood up and followed him into the inner room.

Qin Huai looked unconcerned. He unbuttoned his robe calmly, revealing most of his shoulders.

He just sat in front of Mu Zhou with half his clothes off.

Mu Zhou's heart beat faster because of the heat from the tight muscles.

Although I didn't know how it turned out like this, I still couldn't help but stretch out my trembling hand.
