Chapter 228 - Fears of an accident
"Feverfew, you will know many of the things I have done. It's just that I have my reasons for not telling you now. "Sometimes it's better to not know than to know."
"Miss, why do I feel like you have so many secrets? I always feel like you are doing something that no one knows about, and that Daiyan knows she shouldn't be asking you this. "But what if something happens to you because Daffodil Daydream is worried about you?" As she spoke, her eyes became moist.
"Idiot, nothing will happen to me. Don't worry." Qin Luofei hugged the chrysanthemum in her arms as she comforted him.
"I didn't know what to do the day Miss fainted. I was especially afraid."
"Aren't I fine now? Don't let your thoughts run wild. " Qin Luofei had always treated Daihua as a family member of hers.
However, she had been holding this letter in her hand the entire time, and there was always a hurdle in her heart. Su Fei Fei's death was also related to him. Without her, she might have already succeeded in her revenge. However, her intervention caused her to be unable to rest in peace. Qin Luofei felt somewhat guilty in her heart. She only hoped that she could help her fulfill her final wish.
Since she couldn't use a carrier pigeon, she could only wait until she had the chance to leave the palace before sending this letter out. When Su Fei wrote this letter, she probably had the determination to force herself to die.
Ever since she helped Emperor Ming block that blade, the Emperor Ming had frequently appeared within the Huishang Hall. Qin Luofei had to show an expression of deep love while facing someone she didn't like. To her, this was a form of torture.
The wariness Emperor Ming had towards her was completely gone, there was only trust.
"Love Consort, come play chess with me." Emperor Ming came to the Huishang Hall to try the chess board. Qin Luofei made him feel like meeting her late.
"We lost again. The Love Consort has improved a lot." Emperor Ming laughed and was in a good mood.
Qin Luofei was probably the only one who could make him laugh so happily after defeating the Emperor Ming.
"The emperor allowed chenqie to win! Otherwise, chenqie wouldn't have been able to win either!" Qin Luofei smiled faintly.
"Love Consort is naturally intelligent, why would we allow you to do as you wish? It's good enough if you don't give way to me. " Emperor Ming raised his head and looked at Qin Luofei with a gentle smile.
"Your majesty praises me too much. Your majesty must have purposely let chenqie have her way. Recently, whenever the emperor has the time, he would come to Huishang Hall to visit chenqie. This chenqie is already very grateful. "
As she spoke, Qin Luofei raised the chess piece in her hand and placed it on the board. From the looks of it, this torture method had thoroughly gained his trust. Qin Luofei's brows lightly rose as she tried to guess his thoughts. She did not want to miss out on a single detail. He was too shrewd, so Qin Luofei did not want any accidents to occur.
"Love Consort, as long as you like it, I am willing to always be with you and have time to do what we love to do together." His eyes were filled with love. This kind of expression was something she could have before, but she never would have thought that she would meet him again in this life. It was just that Qin Luofei was no longer the Empress Leng of that year, and did not easily believe in any promises and sweet words.
"Thank you, your majesty." Her goal was to make the man in front of her fall in love with her. Only then would she have the ability to harm her.
Speaking of which, Emperor Ming coughed a few times.
"Your Majesty, please drink some tea. Seeing that Your Majesty's health isn't good, chenqie is a bit worried." Qin Luofei quickly poured tea for herself.
"Just now, I suddenly felt a chill behind me. I wonder if it's because of the weather." Emperor Ming said while coughing.
Young Eunuch who was standing at the side immediately walked over and asked in concern.
"Your majesty, do you want to wear clothes?"
"No need, my body isn't that weak yet. Even Love Consort is fine, could it be that my body isn't even comparable to hers?" Emperor Ming stubbornly said.
"Your majesty, the Young Eunuch is doing it for you. If we don't have a fight today, when the time comes, we can play chess together." The words that Qin Luofei was concerned about.
"Since that's the case, Love Consort will also go back to add some clothes, make sure to keep it warm."
Emperor Ming coughed continuously, and could only leave.
Emperor Ming returned to Cool Hall and looked for the imperial physician to check his pulse.
He had indeed caught a cold. After the imperial physician prescribed the medicine, he urged the emperor to recuperate well.
"I heard that the Emperor has caught a cold."
The first thing Daffodil Daydream did when she heard of what had happened was to come back and tell Qin Luofei.
"Is that so? He kept coughing when he played chess that day. I have to visit the Emperor some other day. "
Qin Luofei sat on the swing with her eyes closed.
Emperor Ming suddenly pampered her and she felt that she was no longer used to it.
Although every word he said seemed to be on purpose, Qin Luofei was constantly reminding herself that all of this was just an illusion.
She was constantly trying to remember the injuries and betrayals she had once suffered.
Right now, his favor was only temporary. After a long period of time passed, he would still favor the other consorts. Men are the new and repulsive things, not only do they not understand gratitude but they are also often blinded by new things.
That year, when the Imperial Consort Leng set up this trap, in the end, he still forgot all of her beautiful oaths from back then. Now that she thought about it, Qin Luofei still felt a dull pain, and it was also because of this pain that gave her a chance to take revenge in her rebirth.
"Miss, what are you thinking? Ever since you became the Imperial Consort, you've been feeling absent-minded and not as happy as before. "
After all, she was a maidservant who had followed by her side for so long, but her thoughts had still been seen through by her.
"Why would I be unhappy? I'm just too happy, that's why I'm like this." However, the Emperor's favor was too sudden. I just wasn't used to it for a while. "
Qin Luo Fei looked at the peach tree that was blooming not far away. Her eyes were a little dazed.
The news of Emperor Ming catching cold quickly spread. This was the best period for all consorts to show off. Imperial Consort Leng was the first to arrive at Cool Hall. She wanted to see His Majesty, but she was stopped outside the door.
"You dog slave, how dare you! How dare you block me!" Imperial Consort Leng opened his mouth and cursed.
"Imperial Consort Leng, the Emperor has an order. We haven't seen anyone for the past few days." The guard at the door said.
"You won't even receive me? Hurry up and tell them it's me. I don't believe that the emperor isn't willing to see me. " Imperial Consort Leng was still so self-righteous that she forgot about Su Fei which made the emperor wary. She was no longer what she used to be, even if she had a child in her womb.
"Forgive this servant for not daring. The emperor has already said that he doesn't want to see it. If I go and report it, I'll definitely attract the emperor's rebuke." Guards did not dare to offend the sick Emperor Ming, if he were to display his might at this moment, his head could fall off from the sky at any time.
"Hmph, dog slave." Imperial Consort Leng couldn't go in, so she could only return to her chambers. It was really strange that the Emperor wouldn't be so sick in the past, where no one would be able to see him.
"Yun Er, send someone to the Cool Hall to check if I'm the only one here." Now that the Imperial Consort Leng was pregnant but could not compare to the Huishang Hall's Qin Luofei's favor, she felt unresigned in her heart. This woman had only saved the emperor once, but she actually received such a favor from the emperor.
There was an endless stream of concubines outside the Cool Hall, and all of them, including the Imperial Consort Yu, were rejected.
"Imperial Concubine, what happened to Your Majesty today? Normally, even if he doesn't meet anyone, he would still meet with the master. Today, even you won't be able to meet him. " Xiao Qin, who was behind Imperial Consort Yu, could not help but say a few words.
"Maybe the emperor is in a bad mood and doesn't want to be disturbed." Imperial Consort Yu could understand Emperor Ming very well, even though she was a little disappointed in her heart. Imperial Consort Yu walked over to the side of the lake and looked at her reflection in the water. Her complexion was no longer as pale as before, her recent loss of favor had caused Imperial Consort Yu to feel very depressed, she was still not used to being ignored.
"Imperial Consort, what happened to you?" Xiao Qin asked.
"Xiao Qin, is my face not outstanding enough?" Imperial Consort Yu was actually worried about her beauty, she was already beginning to lose confidence.
"How could that be? Imperial Consort Yu, you are very beautiful."
"Then why is it that the Emperor is not as good to me as he was to me?"
"Imperial Concubine, don't think too much about it. I heard that the emperor has also refused to receive the Consort Shu."
"Seems like I'm really thinking too much. It's just that he's infected with the cold and doesn't know how the situation is right now. I'm actually quite worried." Anyone could tell the Imperial Consort Yu's love for the Emperor. She knew that even when the emperor was sick, she wouldn't be able to sleep or eat well.
Inside the Huishang Hall, Qin Luofei had just finished her meal and was sitting in the main hall sipping her tea.
"Miss, didn't you say that you would visit the Emperor in a few days? It's already the third day, why haven't you seen any movement? " The reason why Daffodil Daydream was concerned was because she knew that it was extremely difficult for the young miss to get her favor. If she went to visit the Sick Emperor at this time, it would increase their relationship.
"Let's wait and see tomorrow. Didn't they say that the Emperor refused to receive his consort? Do I get sent back, or do I spend a few days in the sleeping quarters in peace? "
"Miss, to Your Majesty … "Don't you miss it?" Daihua asked curiously after hearing her words.
"Accompanying Jun Ruohuan like a tiger is one thing. Maybe I can make him laugh now, but in the next second, he might even want to kill me." Qin Luofei thought deeply for a moment as she spoke. She, who had experienced a betrayal, had already seen through the matters of the harem contending for a favor. If she didn't want revenge, she would rather not enter the palace.
"No wonder Miss is so well-behaved in her sleeping quarters. However, Miss, you must be very worried about the Emperor's illness, right?"
Just as Qin Luofei was about to answer, the sound of footsteps came from outside. Although she didn't know who would come here so late, she still had to be careful when answering this question.
"Of course I'm worried. Does Your Majesty not know yet? It would be hard for me to see him without seeing the consort. For the past three days, I've been having a hard time sleeping. As she spoke, Qin Luofei reached out and gently pinched her forehead, paying attention to the entrance from the corner of her eyes.
What surprised her was that it was actually the Emperor Ming. He actually came to the Huishang Hall so late at night. When Emperor Ming heard her words, his mouth rose. As expected of the Qin Imperial Concubine that he doted on, worrying about him so late at night.
"Love Consort." The Emperor stood at the door to the palace and called out.
Qin Luofei and Daffodil Daydream hurriedly paid their respects.
"Greetings, Your Majesty. It's so late, why are you here?" Qin Luofei asked curiously.
"Get up, I knew you would be worried, so I came out to take a breather and visit you, Love Consort."
Emperor Ming looked haggard, his face did not look good.
"Your majesty, there's dew at night. Remember to add another set of clothes when you go out." Qin Luofei walked over and helped him straighten his clothes.
"Love Consort is still the most considerate. We are already much better now, if we rest for a few more days we should be able to recover. On the other hand, Love Consort, you shouldn't worry too much about us. "
