Chapter 148 The Old Eunuch in the Cold Palace, the Deposed Empress (4)

Xu Fu gritted his teeth. What if the fire burned through the roof beams?

Wouldn't he be buried under the rubble?!

"System, what are my chances of survival if I charge out now?!"

Xu Fu couldn't help but shudder when he saw the female protagonist's ferocious face.

The guards at the gate are already running this way; perhaps you should wait a little longer.

"Damn it! Is the female lead crazy? Or do I have some shady grudge against her?!"

As the thick smoke grew larger and larger, choking Xu Fu so much that he could barely open his eyes, he still managed to curse the other party in his heart.

"Fire! Fire! Quick!"

A series of footsteps, accompanied by shouts, approached from afar. Xu Fu endured the heatwave...

It slowly crawled out from under the bed—

He grabbed the blanket from the bed and pulled it over his head.

"System, loosen the door a bit."

After Xu Fu finished speaking, he staggered and rushed towards the door.

With a loud crash—

Xu Fu crushed two door panels, wrapped himself in a blanket, and rolled out of the fire.

It rolled over to the female lead, with two or three burly guards in front of it.

Xu Fu coughed twice, exhaling two puffs of black smoke.

Then, feigning exhaustion, he fainted.

"System, keep an eye on these people, don't give them a chance to try anything against me—"

Although the Imperial Guards had already arrived to put out the fire, the female lead remained calm and composed.

Even Xu Fu couldn't be sure how many of these people were her confidants...

Fortunately, the female lead couldn't control the situation for the time being, and Xu Fu luckily escaped with his life.

The Imperial Guards didn't even notice the female protagonist standing alone and strangely in the middle of the courtyard.

They immediately split into three groups: one to put out the fire, and another to report to the Emperor.

Another group of people escorted the three of them out.

Xu Fu realized the crisis had passed and fell asleep peacefully on the way back to the servants' quarters.

The next day, Xu Fu slept until the sun was high in the sky, and only woke up when he was so hungry that he couldn't stand it anymore.

I immediately realized that I had arrived at an unfamiliar dormitory, and there was no one around me.

Xu Fu struggled to sit up, only then realizing that his feet were slightly red from the heat of the fire.

There was no major problem elsewhere.

On the contrary, he used a lot of force when he slammed his shoulder into the door, and now it's covered in bruises.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, Xu Fu quickly finished his lunch.

He then walked out of the room, looking weak, and was immediately greeted by Zhu Ye, who was squatting in the corner of the yard.

The person was intently watching the ants crawling around on the ground.

"System, is she stupid?" Xu Fu asked in a low voice.

He made such a big fuss by opening the door and his footsteps were quite loud, but no one noticed him coming this way...

Xu Fu coughed heavily twice, his face pale, and leaned weakly against the door frame.

This time, Zhu Ye heard the noise, turned her head to look at Xu Fu with a look of disgust.

The man took two steps toward Xu Fu and gave a light snort, "The Empress said you should rest and recuperate since you're injured."

"We don't need to go over there to serve them for now—"

After finishing her sentence, Zhu Ye ignored Xu Fu and hurriedly ran away.

"System!!!" Xu Fu was completely bewildered. "What happened after I fell asleep yesterday?"

The female lead fainted as soon as she stepped out of the cold palace, and the emperor was heartbroken upon learning of it.

[Then they were taken directly to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and the two of them haven't come out yet.]

"They're together already?!" Xu Fu scoffed. "Is this relationship so rushed?!"

Thinking about the future development of the male and female protagonists, Xu Fu knew that he would have no use for his skills for the time being.

And the female lead sent him far away—

"It's time to stir things up!!!" Xu Fu grinned wickedly.

"System, lend me some points, I want to buy some... things!!!"

Fortunately, the system didn't notice Xu Fu's change of heart and asked directly,

How much does the host need to borrow?

"I'll borrow 1000 points then," Xu Fu said excitedly, rubbing his hands together.

[Ding, points have been credited to your account. Your current points balance is negative. Please continue to complete tasks.]

"No problem, no problem." Xu Fu nodded vigorously, and immediately his weakness disappeared, and he straightened his back.

Xu Fu turned around and went back to his room to change into a clean and tidy set of clothes.

I spent another two points to buy the floor plan of the entire palace.

Xu Fu hurried towards the palace of the imperial concubine.

Upon seeing the Imperial Concubine in person, Xu Fu immediately performed a full prostration ceremony.

With a look of relief and relief, he cried out to the people, "Your Highness, please save this old servant!"

"Aren't you just someone who follows behind me?" The imperial concubine gave Xu Fu a cool look.

Thinking of the suffering the deposed empress endured, he narrowed his eyes, a hint of smugness flashing in them.

She went to great lengths to get him in.

"I didn't expect you three, master and servants, to be so lucky and come out unharmed."

"Her Majesty the Empress is truly blessed!"

Xu Fu didn't care how sarcastic the other party was; the matter wasn't settled yet.

This little challenge is nothing compared to the points system.

"Your Majesty, don't you want to take things further?" Xu Fu cautiously observed the other's expression.

"Ha! How dare you! Slap yourself!" The imperial concubine shouted, raising her chin in Xu Fu's direction.

An old woman raised her hand and tried to rush forward.

To avoid physical pain, Xu Fu dodged to the side.

Taking advantage of the situation, the small porcelain bottle in his arms rolled out...

"Your Majesty, this servant has a precious item to present to you."

Xu Fu narrowly dodged the slap and cried out urgently.

The old woman was also stunned for a moment, not expecting Xu Fu to have this plan, and immediately stopped what she was doing.

Taking advantage of the moment, Xu Fu quickly picked up the small porcelain bottle and handed it towards the imperial concubine.

"Please, Your Highness, heed this old servant's words—"

"You scoundrel, how dare you make decisions for me!" The Imperial Concubine snorted coldly and nodded to the nanny.

The nanny, with keen insight, took the small porcelain bottle, but didn't immediately let Xu Fu go.

He gripped the small bottle firmly with one hand and quickly slapped the person's head twice with the other.

With two sharp cracks, Xu Fu cried out in pain twice before finally turning to the Imperial Concubine, satisfied.

"What is this?" the Imperial Concubine asked Xu Fu coldly. "If you don't give me a clear answer today..."

"I'll just rip out your tongue and make you fill the abandoned well in the Cold Palace."

Seeing that the imperial concubine had already handed him the pole, Xu Fu, with great shrewdness, climbed up it.

"Your Highness, it's like this—" Xu Fu slowly began to explain from the beginning.

The story goes that the female lead, in order to regain favor, deliberately set a fire, intending to burn him to death in the cold palace.

This was not only to show loyalty to the emperor, but also to remove this stain on his reputation.

Then the small pills in this porcelain bottle are fertility aids.

The female protagonist plans to use this to get pregnant and give birth to a prince first.

Then she would restore herself to the position of empress...
