The Legitimate Daughter Empress - C205

Chapter 204 – Sudden death

After entering the palace for a few days, Su Fei was already somewhat familiar with the harem. She had always been looking for an opportunity to deliberately get close to the Cool Hall, hoping to meet the Emperor Ming by chance.

On this day, Su Fei dressed up beautifully and wandered around Cool Hall, waiting for him to appear. Ever since the day he entered the palace, Emperor Ming had never come to Bright Moon Hall again.

Her luck today was really good. After waiting for a few days and finally seeing Emperor Ming’s figure, Su Fei immediately walked over.

“Greetings to the Emperor.” Su Fei slightly bent down to pay her respects to Emperor Ming.

Emperor Ming frowned slightly. Isn’t this Su Fei? Imperial Consort Leng personally came up to plead for her, but now she still had the face to appear in front of him.

“Eunuch, pull away those unclean people. Don’t block my way.” When Emperor Ming saw this woman, he immediately got angry. Although the Imperial Consort Leng had already explained all this to him, he still had that knot in his heart.

“I’ll have to trouble Su Fei to get out of the way.” The eunuch walked forward and pushed Su Fei away.

This Emperor Ming seems to be a really petty person. So many days have passed yet he was still being calculative. Su Fei Fei had no choice but to leave.

“In the future, you can’t let this woman near the Cool Hall.” Emperor Ming clenched his teeth, looking extremely angry.

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Su Fei was in an extremely bad mood. If that was not the case, not to mention taking revenge, it would be hard to not see the emperor even once a year. She could even more understand the loneliness of a woman in the palace.

Even so, it was hard to tell how many women outside the palace envied this life of living a life worse than death.

“Miss, I heard that the pearl servant was beaten half to death by the Imperial Consort Leng last time.” Dusk chrysanthemum whispered in Qin Luofei’s ear when she returned from the outside.

Qin Luofei sneered, “As expected, how could this woman let her go so easily? It’s already good enough that we didn’t kill her.”

“That’s true, Imperial Consort Leng is a vicious and poisonous person.” Daffodil Daydream gritted her teeth.

Qin Luofei instructed, “Daihua, in the future, it would be better for you to take a detour when you see Imperial Consort Leng. I wonder if she will take revenge on this matter.”

“Yes, miss. You have to be careful too. ”

Qin Luofei nodded as she thought of that person once again. I wonder if Zi Yuan found out anything about the Emperor Yun. Right now, it was difficult for her to contact Zi Yuan. The guards in the palace were too tight, it was impossible for even a bird to fly in from outside.

If only he could contact the Ling Wang. Unfortunately, he heard recently that he had been busy with border matters. The reason why Emperor Ming did not pursue the matter of Su Fei’s virginity probably had something to do with General Su as well.

Right now, the battle was not over, if the General Su knew that his daughter was in the palace having an accident, then there would be no need for this fight. The Emperor Ming was indeed a man with foresight, it was no wonder that the Emperor Yun didn’t dare to reveal himself for a long time, and didn’t dare to contact him.

“Concubine Qin, what are you thinking about?” Leng Mu suddenly stood in front of Qin Luofei. This Leng Mu always came and went without a trace, and always entered and exited the Huishang Hall as if he was a Taiyuan Hospital.

“Master Leng, why did you come in? Master Leng, it’s probably not right for you to always come in and out of Huishang Hall! ” Qin Luofei was not good at concealing anything from people she trusted, so her words were straightforward.

“This is the tonic the Imperial Physician Lin asked me to deliver to you.” Leng Mu immediately turned around after handing the medicine in his hand to Qin Luofei.

“Master Leng, you really want to leave.” Qin Luofei wore a look of displeasure.

Qin Luofei was wondering in her heart, when had she ever offended this Leng Mu? Why did he treat her so weirdly?

It was hard to guess what this woman was thinking. Didn’t she just tell him to leave? Why do you say that now? Leng Mu was at a loss of what to do, what did this woman want from him that would make her happy?

“Concubine Qin, then how can I satisfy you when you say that I’m not leaving?” Leng Mu really didn’t know what this woman was thinking.

“Follow me.” Qin Luofei said.

Leng Mu didn’t say anything as he followed Qin Luofei to the backyard.

“Wait for me here, I’ll be right back.”

Leng Mu was even more confused. Why did Qin Luo Fei bring him here? Very few people came to this backyard; it was overgrown with weeds.

Not long later, Qin Luofei walked over with two swords in her hands.

Leng Mu frowned, he did not understand what Qin Luofei meant. Since when did she like to wield a sword and dance with a blade?

“That day, I heard from the Imperial Physician Lin that the Master Leng knew swordsmanship as well. It was hard for Luo Fei to find someone to spar with inside the palace, so I hope that the Master Leng would not be too rude.”

Qin Luofei rarely saw Imperial Consort Yu lately, so her hands felt itchy, but she didn’t dare to let others know that Leng Mu was already considered as the best opponent.

Leng Mu was suddenly enlightened, and in his heart, he could only blame the Imperial Physician Lin for telling him about his sword arts, so that she would not guess his identity.

“Catch, Leng Mu.”

“Concubine Qin, what are you doing?” Leng Mu caught the sword, but he was still a little uneasy. This was the Huishang Hall, and the two of them were practicing the sword alone. If someone else saw this, the consequences would be dire.

Qin Luofei said, “Don’t worry, I’ve already asked Flower to stand guard outside. We can practice our swordsmanship peacefully here.”

“But I still have things to do.” Leng Mu tactfully rejected.

Qin Luofei did not wait for Leng Mu’s rejection, she had already unsheathed her sword and pierced towards Leng Mu. Leng Mu anxiously dodged, Qin Luofei’s sword was deadly, it looked like she was here to take revenge.

“Concubine Qin, this is.” Leng Mu was puzzled, but he was forced to pull the sword out in the end.

The corner of Qin Luofei’s mouth raised, seeing if he would practice with her or not. The reason she did that earlier was completely to force Leng Mu to practice the sword with her.

After a while, the two of them were evenly matched in moves, learning from each other at the beginning to the end.

“Master Leng, I never thought that your sword techniques would be so amazing.” Qin Luofei couldn’t help but praise him.

“Is that so? Thank you for your praise. But Concubine Qin, your sword techniques are also not bad, why don’t we have a real competition to see? ”

“Alright, take this.”

Qin Luofei thrust her sword over, and Leng Mu easily dodged it. He turned around, and his sword was already at Qin Luofei’s neck.

“You’re really fast.” Qin Luofei couldn’t help but admire him.

Unfortunately, Qin Luofei’s foot stepped on a rock, causing her originally slanted body to lose its balance.

“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!” Qin Luofei closed her eyes tightly, thinking that she would definitely fall to the ground this time.

A pair of hands embraced her tightly as Leng Mu anxiously asked, “Are you alright?”

His eyes were soft and gentle as he stared at Qin Luofei. What made Qin Luofei even more embarrassed was that she actually couldn’t help but blush. Furthermore, his heartbeat quickened and the atmosphere was extremely awkward.

“Miss, you must be thirsty.” The unsuspecting Xi Ju brought two bowls of water over. When she saw this scene, she was shocked.

Qin Luofei and Leng Mu hurriedly released each other, pretending that nothing had happened.

“Feverfew, why didn’t you say anything?” Qin Luofei said in a reproachful tone.

“Miss, I don’t know you.” Daffodil Daydream stuttered.

“Concubine Qin, if there’s nothing else, I’ll head back first.” Leng Mu left in a hurry in order to avoid this awkward atmosphere.

Qin Luofei nodded with an embarrassed smile as she watched Leng Mu leave.

“Miss, have some water.” Daffodil Daydream held onto the silk handkerchief in her hand, wanting to say something but she hesitated.

“Whatever you want to say.” Having followed her for so long, Qin Luofei obviously knew that she had something to say.

“Miss, actually, I don’t want to say too much, but seeing you and Master Leng like this, I am very worried. “If one day you get moved, you won’t be able to take back your true love.” Daffodil Daydream kept her head down. She knew that she was just a servant and not qualified to tell the young mistress that.

Qin Luofei laughed loudly.

“Haha, Daisy, I thought you wanted to tell me something important. How could I possibly like Leng Mu?”

Leng Mu heard Qin Luofei’s words, and was about to leave the Huishang Hall.

“Shh, lower your voice Miss, it would not be good if others could hear. That’s for the best, you are the Emperor Ming. If I get involved with the Master Leng, it would not be good for the latter to investigate this matter. ”

“You, maid, think about it more than I do.” Qin Luofei pointed at Chrysanthemum’s head.

“I’m relieved if that’s not the case.”

“All day long, I’ve been thinking about this. Is the food ready? I’m a little hungry. ” Qin Luofei kept her sword and hid it in the grass.

He returned to his room with Daisy and washed up before dinner.

Leng Mu still had the scent of Qin Luofei’s body left on him, and his heartbeat inexplicably sped up when he thought of that scene just now.

“Leng Mu, what’s wrong? Is there a fever? ” Lin He looked at Leng Mu with a baffled expression.

“No, it’s just a little hot.”

“Aren’t you sending the medicine to the Concubine Qin a little too long?” Lin He stared at Leng Mu strangely.

“I just casually chatted with her for a while.”

“It’s not that I’m talking to you, it’s better if you don’t touch Qin Luofei too much to avoid her being targeted by the Emperor Ming. Don’t look at how the Emperor Ming is treating the Concubine Qin coldly, or even send people to watch her from the back. ” Lin He said earnestly.

“Of course I know that I shouldn’t touch her too much, but sometimes it’s not like we can do whatever we want.” Leng Mu could not control his emotions and thoughts. Every time he passed by the Huishang Hall, he couldn’t help but take another look. He didn’t know why, but it seemed like this had already become a habit that was difficult to change.

“But you have to remember why we’re here. You can love the person you want to love only after you’ve achieved your goal. But you have to restrain yourself before the end is achieved, or you will only harm her. ”

Lin He’s words were not without logic, and Leng Mu was clear that he could not continue to be this intimate with her. There were too many informants in the palace. If he was not careful, he would be discovered.

“Understood.” Leng Mu’s eyes became a little sad.

Just as they were preparing for their meal, a palace maid rushed in from outside.

“Imperial Physician Lin, not good, something happened to Bright Moon Hall.” carried the medicine box as he followed the palace maid to head to Bright Moon Hall.

When they arrived at Bright Moon Hall together, they saw a palace maid dying.

“Imperial Physician, how is it?” Su Fei Fei said as she held the pearl with reddened eyes.

Lin He helped her feel her pulse. Her body was in a mess and she was vomiting blood.

“I can only try my best.”
