CH 44.1

“Woof woof woof!” 

Liyu pressed his hand, pushing the barking and the snowy white dog's head out of the basket, back into the basket.

“Guard Soulun.” he said as he shoved the basket into the hands of the guard in front of him, “His Majesty's orders, dispose of the dog.” 

After seeing him off, Hailancha barked: “What orders from the Emperor, it was probably your idea, you were fearing Noble Consort Hui's retribution and shoving this awful job on me! The son of a bitch!” 

In front of the Chief Eunuch, he didn't dare to complain, as soon as he was gone, he started to curse. 

“Guard Soulun.” 

Hailancha was taken aback and said: “Who? Who is listening to me there?” 

A woman of the yellow cedar turned around the corner, at his words and said with a faint smile: “I've just arrived, did you just say something?” 

Hailancha was relieved to see that the expression on her face did not appear to be a lie and then she gave a little giggle, thinking that she looked familiar, she said: “You are... You're the one who was at the Yonghe Palace last time...” 

“I am the court lady of the Changchun Palace, Wei Yingluo.” Wei Yingluo announced herself. 

“I remember you.” Hailancha laughed and said, “You're a tough one, even without the guards, you could have killed that eunuch all by yourself.” 

“In order to protect myself, I had no choice, please forgive me.” Wei Yingluo smiled, not to discuss the subject any further and went straight to the point, “I am here today, only because Snowball hurt Noble Lady Yu, ruined the Empress party and got me punished, I want to take the dog back.”

“Oh?” Hailancha said with a raised eyebrow, “What will you do with it?” 

Wei Yingluo's face was smiling, like a spring breeze but the words that came out were like an easterly wind stinging the bones: “Naturally, I will first take my revenge and then kill it and then skin it and bring it to you, so that you can answer to your superiors.” 

“You're a girl, how can you do that?” Hailancha said, he had an answer in his mind, of course she could do it, this girl could do the same to a human being, she could do the same to a dog, after a moment's hesitation, he handed over the basket and said, “Fine, you can do it! But if anyone asks later...” 

Wei Yingluo took the basket in her hand and with understanding said to him: “Don't worry my lord, Yingluo will keep his mouth shut, I won't make things difficult for you.” 

Hailancha then let go of his hand and let her take the basket. 

It was not until Wei Yingluo's back disappeared at the entrance to the tunnel that Hailancha exhaled, leaning against a pillar and saying: “Phew, finally we are free of this chore...” 

“Hailancha!” 

“Who is it again?” Hailancha turned around in surprise, what was wrong with him today, why was he being overheard everywhere? 

From behind the pillar came a man, dressed in the same guard's uniform as Hailancha, with the same sword at his waist, only more elegant, like a flower in full bloom. 

It is Fucha Fuheng. 

“How dare you.” Fuheng said with an ugly look on his face, “How dare you leave the task entrusted to you by the Emperor to a maid.” 

“Look what you said man.” Hailancha hastily denied it, “I didn't force it on her, she asked for it.” 

“You could have refused.” Fuheng's frown tightened, “You didn't refuse, because you were afraid Noble Consort Hui would wake up and ask for punishment of the dog's murder...” 

“Yes, Noble Consort Hui can't do anything to the Emperor but a mere guard?” Hailancha stretched her hands, admitting in front of her friend, “Women are scary when they get angry, especially powerful ones.” 

“So, you're still returning the matter to Wei Yingluo?” Fuheng said with a hint of anger. 

“She is a court lady of the Changchun Palace, the Changchun Palace and the Chuxiu Palace are already enemies, add to the hatred, fear not! But then again...” Hailancha looked thoughtfully at the handsome man in front of him and said, “You care about her and you're mad at me for her...” 

Fuheng was flustered, he turned his face away and said: “No, it's not that... It's just that she's a girl, she can't do that, you'll get the job back later, won't you?” 

A few days later, Wei Yingluo found Hailancha again and slipped a snowy white fur into his hands.
