The Legend of the Concubine in the Harem

The white jade petals of the plum blossom were stained with the emperor's blood.

Xie Yuzhen naturally did not miss the thoughtful look in his eyes when he looked at him - but no matter what the emperor thought or how he reacted to it, Xie Yuzhen did not care, even if he became angry with him and began to fear and hate him from then on.

That doesn't matter.

The worst that can happen is that I can reload the game and risk being swallowed by the time rift. Anyway, it's worth it to be able to see the emperor in such a miserable state!

The cries of "Help me" were mixed with Liu Shuyi's faint sobs.

The panicked palace maids were escorting people, some were asking for the imperial physician, some were going to get hot water, some were getting clean clothes for the emperor... The scene was in chaos.

Xie Yuzhen also had an expression of worry and fear on his face. He was about to go forward to see the emperor's reaction, but the emperor had already sent away the eunuch who was going to temporarily treat his wound. After thinking for a moment, he directly pulled out the long hairpin that had entered his body.

Blood splattered, and his entire left arm was dripping with blood, which frightened the eunuch who was at a loss: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

How can you just pull out the weapon as you please?

What if a blood vessel is punctured? Wouldn't that be courting death?

The emperor naturally had no intention of paying attention to this eunuch - he had fought with others before and suffered similar injuries. He had also taught himself some medical skills and was very able to endure pain. The wound was on his own body, and even though it was not clear through the clothes and blood, he could tell that the tip of the hairpin had only pierced the muscle. It looked scary, but it was not serious.

Of course it hurts a lot.

The emperor held a hairpin in his right hand, which was covered in his own blood. He strode up to Xie Yuzhen and met the woman's eyes.

The emperor found that the worry in her eyes was not fake, and her feelings were as sincere as before. However, the emperor did not care whether her feelings towards him were more real or fake. "Xianming is very generous. She is willing to give this thing to Liu to tie her hair... After all, it is a token of my love. If you give it to someone else in the future, I will not approve."

He took Xie Ruizhen's hand and handed him the blood stain on his palm and the plum blossom hairpin.

Xie Yuzhen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and the worry on his face faded away: "She is a concubine after all. It's really not decent for her to run around with her hair disheveled like this..."

The wet palm made her feel a little difficult to hold the hairpin, but the next second, the emperor did hold her hand tightly.

The man's calloused hand grasped Xie Yuzhen's delicate white hand, and with a little force, he and she grasped the bloody murder weapon together. Then, the emperor pointed the tip of the long hairpin, which was shining with cold light, at his heart: "I don't want you to give the things I gave you to others."

The emperor exerted force again, and the plum blossom hairpin cut open the eye of the dragon pattern on his chest and pierced into his skin. Xie Yuzhen felt a series of rapid heart tremors transmitted to her by the long hairpin in her hand. She raised her head to glance at the emperor, quickly broke free from his hand, and pulled out the plum blossom hairpin that had slightly pierced the emperor's heart. Regardless of the blood stain on it, she put it back into her bun.

"I understand." Xie Yuzhen held the round fan gracefully, placed it at her side and bowed slightly. She no longer pretended to be very worried about the emperor's life and death, but smiled jokingly, "Most of the imperial doctors in the palace are with the virtuous concubine now. It's really unfortunate that at this critical moment, His Majesty was assassinated and injured..."

They have to conceal the truth right under the nose of Fourth Miss Deng, who possesses extraordinary abilities, and not give her the chance to react and use the scoring function. Naturally, the more things happen in the palace, the better, the more chaotic it is.

The wound on the emperor's arm was very real, and it could be used to confuse the view.

Just as the Meng aunt and nephew never thought that Xie Yuzhen would dare to set up a trap on the day of her delivery, the Duke of Yingzhou probably never thought that the emperor, who had lost his beloved concubine and children in succession and was assassinated, would have the ultimate goal of dealing with their entire family.

All of this may have been planned in advance or may simply be a sudden incident caused by someone's sudden desire for revenge, and can all be exploited.

"Then I have to thank Xianming very much..." The emperor's eyes were filled with Xie Yuzhen's relaxed and comfortable smile, and his heart was filled with the sense of accomplishment of his own love confession this time.

The young eunuch who had been following the emperor was so frightened by his crazy and confused actions that he was speechless.

Seeing the emperor and his concubine, who were each thinking their own thoughts, finish their witticism and turn their attention to him, the young eunuch knelt down with shaking legs: "Your servant... Your servant is here."

He wished he could become deaf, blind and dumb immediately.

"Don't be afraid. What's your name?" Xie Yuzhen waved her round fan and asked gently, "Although the Queen has already assigned someone to me, as Yuanjun grows up, more and more people will be needed. How about Your Majesty give up today and give this eunuch to me?"

"As long as you show your love, what's wrong with that?" The emperor agreed happily.

The young eunuch knelt down immediately, thinking that he had barely saved his life, and dared not do what he thought again: "My name is Luan Chong, and I pay my respects to the queen."

Xie Yuzhen glanced at the emperor, nodded to Luan Chong, and said, "Go and see if the imperial physician has arrived."

Luan Chong kowtowed again and said, "Yes, I will go right away."

He retreated hand and foot.

The busy palace servants in the hall gradually found their rhythm. The emperor simply took off his clothes and sat down with his upper body naked. Xie Yuzhen took the clean white handkerchief soaked in hot water and wrung out from the palace servant, and cleaned the blood around the wound for the emperor very carefully and considerately.

As she was wiping, she couldn't help but poke the red and swollen flesh next to the wound: "Your Majesty, does it hurt?"

The emperor asked in return: "Are you distressed?"

Xie Yuzhen raised his eyes and looked at him for a moment, then lowered his eyelids: "It must be a little painful, Your Majesty, maybe you need to try harder, for example, cry and express your pain, act like a spoiled child or something..."

Hearing this, the emperor smiled and said, "If Bo Xianming can feel my heartache, it will be worth it even if I shed tears."

Of course Xie Yuzhen really wanted to retort to him, "Why don't you cry for me first?" But before he could finish his words, the imperial physician who had been extremely busy in recent days arrived.

It was none other than the Imperial Physician Lin, whom Xie Yuzhen was also very familiar with.

Imperial Physician Lin stepped forward and first bowed to the emperor and his concubine, and then Xie Yuzhen consciously made way for him to examine the emperor's wound.
