Rebirth: Missing the Beloved - C100

“This subject greets Your Majesty.”

Mu Lingshao paid his respects to the Emperor, who was sitting on the Dragon Throne. Then, he pulled Du Mu Zhou over and gave tea to the Queen.

The Emperor stared fixedly at Mu Lingshao. At this moment, his eyes flickered with a different light. He had actually forgotten about the Queen by his side.

“It really does look like it …” The Emperor mumbled.

At this moment, the empress had an ugly expression on her face, and Mu Lingshao was in a trance.

Du Muzhou hastened to say, “Empress, Ling Shao also brought a gift for you.”

As he said that, he took out an exquisite embroidered bag. Inside the bag were some crafty little tricks.

Although it wasn’t worth much money, the old master outside the palace had to put in some effort to do it.

The empress fiddled with the items in her hands, a smile finally appearing on her face.

“It’s true that Ling Shao understands some things. He knows that this palace is lonely and has brought me some small stuff to relieve my boredom.”

Mu Lingshao raised his eyes to look at the canoe, as if he was thanking her for helping him out. His eyes were filled with certainty, and Du Mu Zhou returned a smile towards him.

At this time, it was rare for the Emperor to show any interest in these little things. He raised his head and said to Mu Lingshao, “You guys came a little later today. Otherwise, we would have bumped into you.”

However, Du Mu Zhou didn’t think much of it. With the memories of her past life, it wasn’t too late for her to avoid Mu Yu Feng.

“What a shame.” Mu Ling Shao replied politely, “However, if there’s a chance, we will eventually meet one.”

The emperor looked at Mu Lingshao with a smile, as if he was extremely appreciative of his elegance, and even wanted to leave him to speak to him in private.

On the other hand, the Emperor casually gave Du Mu Zhou an excuse and dismissed him.

Before leaving, Mu Lingshao gently held Du Mu Zhou’s hand and said to her, “Rest assured, I will come and find you after the emperor has finished asking his questions.”

“Yes.” Du Mu Zhou replied.

“Little Lord, where do you want to go?” the servant girl outside asked. “Apart from the place where the emperor deals with government affairs and the concubines’ chambers are not allowed, all the other servants can lead you there.”

Du Mu Zhou nodded, and kindly said to the servant girl, “Then let’s go for a walk in the imperial garden. Thank you for your troubles.”

The maidservant led Du Mu Zhou to the entrance of the imperial garden, and stopped him from going further inside.

“Little Lord, this servant’s status is not allowed to enter.”

“It’s fine, just send it here. Coincidentally, I like to meditate alone.” Du Mu Zhou didn’t make things difficult for her.

The road in front was crisscrossed with twists and turns, and the rare herbs on both sides of the road had been meticulously cut. Du Mu Zhou was immersed in the silence of the place.

Du Mu boat was bored to death as the gurgling spring water flowed by, following the spring water to its source. The deeper he went, the deeper he went.

“Hm ~” As she was walking, she unexpectedly heard one or two ambiguous gasps.

Du Mu Zhou’s face reddened. Why did this sound so similar to …

Under the dense tree branches in front of him, the girl’s soft pink clothes and her private undergarment were faintly discernible, which were also casually thrown onto the ground.

Ripples began to rise up in Du Mu Zhou’s mind. There was actually someone who would do such a thing in the Imperial Garden. Fortunately, she coincidentally bumped into him!

The two people in front didn’t notice Du Mu Zhou’s existence at all, but from this angle, Du Mu Zhou could see the woman’s face.

Weird, to actually have some familiarity with him. Could he have seen him somewhere before?

Du Mu Zhou secretly took note of the woman’s face in his heart and secretly retreated.

Not long after, Mu Lingshao came looking for him from the entrance of the Imperial Garden.

With a faint smile, Du Mu Zhou tidied up his clothes and led the way out of the palace. They sat in a horse carriage and headed back to the mansion.

The two of them raised their heads, and their every move was filled with tacit understanding.

Of course, the cooks in the mansion also cared a lot about her stomach. Du Mu Zhou only felt that after a few days, the meat on his waist started to grow.

Du Muzhou sat at the side of the bed and pinched his own flesh.

“Madam.” A servant girl came in from outside. “Esteemed Empress has sent someone over to invite you to the palace.”

“Enter the palace?” Du Mu Zhou was somewhat puzzled.

After that, she immediately fixed her hair and put on a set of dignified jujube colored butterfly clothes. She said to the little girl, “Bring me out to take a look.”

“Yes, ma’am.”

Du Mu Zhou followed the little girl to the living room. Sure enough, there was a rather stable looking wet nurse sitting in the living room.

He should be the empress’s right-hand man.

When the mama saw Du Mu Zhou, she immediately stood up with a smile and flattered him, “Madam Mu, our Empress has long heard that your medical skills are exceptional, so she wishes to invite you over to treat the First Princess.”

“Is the First Princess sick?”

“Yes, and not lightly. All the imperial physicians at the palace said that this emergency had a strange origin.

There was actually someone who drugged the Eldest Princess?

Du Mu Zhou was secretly surprised in his heart. At the same time, he ordered the servants to bring her medicine chest over, and said to the mama, “There’s no time to lose, let’s set off immediately. The servants will leave a message for Shao Ling later.”

The gloomy expression on the mama’s face finally dissipated as she nodded her head repeatedly. “Alright, this old servant has already prepared a carriage outside the manor. Lady Mu, please follow me.”

Du Mu Zhou sat in the carriage that the Senior Servant had prepared. After the time it took two incense sticks to burn, they arrived at the First Princess’ chamber.

The Grand Princess’ palace was decorated in a very beautiful manner, with hairpins and blubber that many young ladies would only like. However, the Grand Princess’s bed was covered by many layers of gauze, making it difficult to clearly see what was inside.

The empress was currently accompanying the first princess by her bedside. It was only when the mama switched places with her that she found out that Du Muzhou had arrived.

“Good child, you’re finally here.” The empress held onto Du Mu Zhou’s hand and said, “I know that you’re studying medicine. Hurry up and help me steal Mu Qing’s child.”

“Empress, don’t worry.”

Du Mu Zhou was suspicious. Just what did the First Princess look like? And what sort of illness did he suffer from? Even the imperial physicians could do nothing about it.

“Someone, come.” the mama shouted.

The two servants came up and removed the layers of gauze, revealing the sickly Grand Princess.

When Du Mu Zhou saw the real face of the person on the bed, he could not help but be startled.

How could it be her!?

Du Mu Zhou was extremely shocked, but he maintained his composure.

No one would have thought that the Grand Princess Mu Qing, who was currently on the verge of death, was actually the woman that had secretly tasted the taboo in the Imperial Garden that day.

Du Mu Zhou’s mind was in a mess, she didn’t expect the situation to be so dramatic.

However, she was now a doctor, and the princess’ safety was of paramount importance.

After some observation, she was almost certain that this princess had indeed contracted a strange disease.

“Esteemed empress, the Grand Princess’s illness is an infectious disease. Take the medicine according to my prescription first and you can temporarily suppress the deterioration of her illness.”
