Quick Wear: Don't come over here, you are looking for trouble

Chapter 22 Conspiracy Theory Emperor x Innocent and Sickly Little White Flower 22

The sound of the candlestick being pushed over was not too quiet. Xiao Tao ran over in a hurry, running very fast and hurriedly. When she came over, the candlestick had already stopped moving, but the candle rolled to her feet.

"Sir?"

"...Young Master?"

Xu Bai was wrapped up well, and the part of his face that was exposed was abnormally red. He was now slightly opening his mouth and exhaling in small sips, and each breath was extremely hot and unbearable.

When Xiaotao touched his forehead, the temperature was incredibly hot. The last time Xu Bai vomited blood, Xiaotao trembled all over whenever she thought about it. So she didn't dare to delay and ran out quickly.

The group from the Imperial Hospital would not come, so the girl gritted her teeth and decided to go find Xie He.

After the election, the emperor spent more time in the harem, and was especially fond of Shen Yan. She came from a humble family and was made a concubine faster than others. He even had the ability to make Xie He stay with her every night.

Xiao Tao heard all this. When she ran to the palace where Shen Yan lived and saw the emperor's carriage, she knew she was in the right place.

"Ouch, be careful not to bump into His Majesty!" Li Da swung his whisk. He always looked kind and gentle. He obviously came over to see what was going on because he heard Xiao Tao and the eunuch on duty talking loudly at the door.

"——Hey, Xiao Tao? Why are you here instead of serving the Master?"

Seeing Li Da was like seeing a life-saving straw. Xiao Tao cried, "Eunuch, is His Majesty in there? Please let me see His Majesty, please..."

"His Majesty is talking to the Empress." Li Da said in a low voice, "It's almost time for the morning court session. No one is around now, so you should go back."

"Father-in-law, please be lenient with my son. My son has a high fever, he--" This kind of thing should not be talked about here, not to mention that this is not the first time. Xiao Tao came to ask Xie He for help before, saying that "the son is dying", so it was not credible all of a sudden.

The same is true of the story of “The Boy Who Cried Wolf”.

Li Da frowned and signaled Xiao Tao to keep her voice down. After all, he was the one who brought Xu Bai here personally, and the people in the palace were very smart and could tell whether a person was good or bad at a glance, so he still had sympathy for the frail young master.

"Eunuch, I have finished taking the previous medicine... The master has a high fever, I really can't do anything, please, Eunuch, please inform him——"

Li Daxian heard the footsteps coming from the hall and felt uneasy. The noise here must have been heard inside.

"who is that?"

A delicate female voice came out first, and Xiao Tao trembled all over, but for Xu Bai, she stayed still.

The complicated dress gradually came closer. Xiao Tao did not dare to look up and bowed along with everyone else.

"Where are you from, maid? You are making a scene so early in the morning here in my palace. If you alarm His Majesty, I will beat you to death!"

It sounds like he is not someone who is easy to get along with.

Xiao Tao's back was covered with cold sweat, and she kowtowed repeatedly, "This servant... This servant is here to serve the Master, this servant..."

"Well, since you still know how to call yourself a slave, you still remember your identity. But you should be severely punished for disturbing the emperor's presence by making a noise in the morning, Diancui!" She shouted, "Thirty slaps on the face, heavy beatings!"

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, spare me!" Xiao Tao's face was pale, so when she saw the bright yellow behind her, she felt like she saw a savior. "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! It is because the young master has a high fever that I dared to come and beg you. I have no intention of..."

"How dare you quibble!" Shen Yan was already in Xie He's arms, soft as a boneless being. Her charming voice made people shudder, "Dian Cui, beat you up hard, and see if you dare to be so unruly in the future!"

Xie He didn't say a word. Xiao Tao originally thought that since His Majesty doted on the young master so much, he would definitely show some expression, but Huangpao just stood there and didn't say a word even though Xiao Tao's head was bruised.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please, the imperial physician refuses to go, please save the young master——"

Snapped!

This is the first time.

He swung his hand and slapped me on the face, making me dizzy from the first slap.

Snapped!

The second time, blood oozed from the corner of Xiao Tao's mouth. She didn't understand the emperor's ruthlessness until she looked at him in disbelief.

The tenderness he had shown to the young master in the past was now given to the gorgeously dressed lady. The young master was ill, but His Majesty didn't care at all. Xiao Tao was struck by lightning, and suddenly understood what her aunt said - in the palace, not only do you have to serve the master well, but you also have to know how to choose the master. After all, the master and the servant depend on each other for favor and disgrace. If the master falls out of favor one day, we will be implicated as well.

Snapped!

A few more times in succession.

“Oh.” Shen Yan turned her head away, as if she couldn’t bear to watch any longer, but she leaned deeper into Xie He’s arms, “That… Young Master, does His Majesty want to go and take a look?”

"No need."

These words were like thunder in Xiao Tao's ears, but the emperor continued, "He has only been favored for a few days, and he has become lawless. Don't bother with him!"

How did that happen?

Xiao Tao stumbled on the way back. Her cheeks were swollen and anyone who saw her would know that she had just been punished.

Xie He was tired of dealing with a domineering woman like Shen Yan who took advantage of her favor. What he thought of was still Xu Bai's pitiful face. He just wanted to give him some sweet treats for so long, now it was time to give him some cold shoulder so that he would realize that he was the only one he could rely on in the deep palace.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

The hall was cold and deserted, with only intermittent coughing sounds coming from it. Xiao Tao wiped her tears and saw Xu Bai actually got off the bed, wearing only his underwear, holding his forehead with his hand and coughing so hard that his whole body was shaking.

Perhaps it was because he drank too much medicine, and now Xu Bai always had a bitter medicinal smell on his body, which could only be smelled when you got close, and it was inexplicably alluring.

Xiao Tao came forward to help him up and said softly, "Go back and lie down. Your fever hasn't subsided yet."

Xu Bai looked over. In fact, he saw it when Xiao Tao came over.

"your face--"

It must be because of myself.

"I offended the majesty and was punished." Xiao Tao didn't dare to say more. She always remembered the indifference of the majesty. If she was really completely despised, she would be nothing more than a maid in the laundry department. But what about the young master? Not to mention the future, if there is no soup this time, I am afraid I can't make it.

"Go and have a rest, sir."

Xu Bai sighed. His whole body ached, his fingertips trembled involuntarily, his throat was dry and itchy, and he couldn't suppress a low cough.
