The Legitimate Daughter Empress - C213
Chapter 212 – Guards Search
“Fortunately, you came in time. Otherwise, I don’t even know what my room would have been like.” Qin Luofei finally let out a sigh of relief and was extremely grateful to the Imperial Consort Yu.
“Even a servant of the palace looks at people’s work, it’s really hard to get used to it.” Imperial Consort Yu sighed.
“Indeed, power reigns supreme. The harem would be looked down upon if it did not have any status.”
Imperial Consort Yu felt her heart ache as she looked at Qin Luofei’s haggard appearance.
“Look at you! It’s a pity that the emperor is no longer the same as before. Otherwise, I could still plead on your behalf.” To save you from the pain of being punished to kneel, Imperial Consort Leng has gone too far! ”
Qin Luofei shook her head, saying, “I’m already satisfied with you having such a heart. Right now, you don’t have the protection of the Emperor, so you have to be careful at all times.”
“Mm, the emperor has changed. Right now, I don’t dare to ask too much of him. Fortunately, you’re still a sister in the palace. Otherwise, who knows how long it would take for us to reach the end.” Imperial Consort Yu forced a smile.
When Qin Luofei heard Imperial Consort Yu’s disappointment, she must also be feeling very bad right now.
“It’s fine, you won’t think too much.” Qin Luofei lightly patted Imperial Consort Yu’s shoulder as she comforted him.
“Let’s go in for a cup of tea. I’ll go change my clothes.” Qin Luofei said.
Daffodil Daydream was waiting on the Imperial Consort Yu outside, so Qin Luofei returned to her room. The first thing she did was to stuff the thing under her pillow under the bed. Fortunately, Imperial Consort Yu had arrived in time, otherwise, she wouldn’t even know how she would have ended up like this.
She changed her clothes and walked out. Imperial Consort Yu must be in a bad mood today, so she came here to have a chat with her.
“Sister Qin, you’ve been at the palace for quite some time now, right?” Imperial Consort Yu asked.
“Yes, a long, long time ago.” All the good times she had spent in her previous life had been buried deep in this palace.
Imperial Consort Yu asked again: “Then are you lonely, Sister Qin? What do you do when you can’t think straight? ”
“There will always be lonely people, but I’m already used to it.” Qin Luofei pursed her lips and smiled.
Imperial Consort Yu became even more disappointed and said: “Living with no purpose in living makes me feel so boring. I used to think that with Emperor Ming, I would be able to get through everything. Now he has very little time for me. Little by little, I don’t even know what to do. ”
“You can turn your attention to other things and remember not to take any man for yourself. Otherwise, when he leaves you, he will collapse. ” Qin Luofei advised.
Imperial Consort Yu shook her head, “Of course I know. It’s just that some things cannot be taken back after you give them away.”
Qin Luofei seemed to have seen herself in her previous life. She had once done this kind of thing for love, without holding back in the slightest, in order to end up like that.
“Since my heart was empty, I tried to put down something else. For example, you like to practice the sword. ” Qin Luofei instructed the Imperial Consort Yu.
Imperial Consort Yu held onto Qin Luofei’s finger, smiled, and said: “Mn, actually, there are times when I am truly envious of you.”
Qin Luofei was a little surprised, what was there for her to be admired?
“Envy me for what?”
Imperial Consort Yu smiled bitterly: “You have always worked hard to live. Although I don’t know where you got the courage and confidence to live, every time I think of you, I feel that it’s already very good.”
Qin Luofei shook her head slightly. Who would have known that what she had experienced was not something that an ordinary person could bear. People who had died once understood the value of life better, which was why she worked so hard to live her life.
“So don’t think about it. Live a good life. “And I’ll accompany you, no matter how hard the road ahead is, remember that there’s still a sister like me.”
The Imperial Consort Yu felt warm in her heart. Love could make her feel happy, but friendship could warm her cold heart.
“Sisterhood is more valuable to me.”
Imperial Consort Yu couldn’t help but grab onto Qin Luofei’s small hand, the bond between the two became even deeper.
“There’s a lot of time in the future. In the future, if you have anything you don’t want to think about, you can come and find me.” Qin Luofei also held onto Imperial Consort Yu’s small hand.
“Such a deep sense of sisterhood.”
Imperial Consort Leng suddenly stood at the door, looking down at the two of them with her haughty and arrogant expression.
This woman wouldn’t come here for no reason. It seemed like she had come with ill intentions. Qin Luofei could already tell from her eyes that there was nothing good about the Imperial Consort Leng coming here.
“Imperial Consort Leng, what can I do for you?” Qin Luofei stood up and did not greet him. Since this woman had intruded on her recklessly, there was no need to be polite with her.
“Does it have to be something to come here? Should I give up my seat after standing here for so long? ” The meaning of Imperial Consort Leng’s words was no more than that Qin Luofei should be given her seat.
“Imperial Consort Leng, please take a seat. However, you have to be careful, this chair of mine is not as comfortable as your Jin Se Palace’s.
Imperial Consort Leng glared at Qin Luofei, saying, “You …”
Qin Luofei had never spoken a word that was pleasing to the ears. This woman’s existence was specifically against her.
“I am only kind enough to remind you to be more careful. Adding on the fact that you’re wearing the Six Protections, I can’t help but remember that when I was pregnant with Princess Tranquil, I sat on this chair every day. It’s a pity that my Princess Tranquil died young, you can’t stand for too long, please sit. ”
After hearing Qin Luofei’s words, the Imperial Consort Leng didn’t dare to sit in that seat anymore.
“I’ll make it short.”
The corner of Qin Luofei’s mouth lifted. She still found it dirty to let this woman sit in her chair!
“Imperial Concubine, if there’s anything you want to say, please say it. Chenqie will listen attentively.”
Imperial Consort Leng said coldly: “Just now, the guard leader said that when we came to Huishang Hall, you didn’t search your room for him. Is this true?”
Qin Luofei never thought that a leader of the harem would be so calculative. He couldn’t afford to offend the Imperial Consort Yu, and he even moved in a Imperial Consort Leng.
“That’s right, is there a problem?”
Imperial Consort Leng said: “Are you feeling guilty? “Why not?”
“Imperial Consort Leng, didn’t you also not search the imperial concubine rooms in the imperial harem? “Why did you search the place when you arrived?” Qin Luofei said indifferently.
The others could tell that Imperial Consort Leng was targeting Qin Luofei with just one glance.
“Your place is the farthest from here and is easy to hide from. If you do not have a guilty conscience Concubine Qin, you should not mind the Embroidered Uniform Guard entering the house to search for you, right?” If they can’t find the assassin, it would be hard for them to explain it to Emperor Ming, so you need to search your room once more. ”
The corners of Imperial Consort Leng’s mouth revealed a smile.
He had gone too far! It seemed that only after the Jinyi Guards overturned the Huishang Hall would the Imperial Consort Leng be satisfied.
“Imperial Consort Leng, aren’t you going too far?” The person seated at the side spoke directly with the Imperial Consort Yu.
“Imperial Consort Yu, this is the intention of the Emperor. Do you mean that the Emperor went too far?” Since the Imperial Consort Leng had personally come here, she definitely would not let him down and return.
“Guards, search!”
Imperial Consort Leng gave the order, and the guards immediately kicked Qin Luofei’s room.
Qin Luofei looked over from the corner of her eyes. She had hidden that thing under the bed, so she didn’t know if she would be able to discover it. She kept grabbing at the handkerchief in her hand. The more she thought about it, the worse the situation became. Qin Luofei immediately got up and walked to the door.
As expected, these guards did not place her in their eyes and turned their belongings into a mess. Qin Luofei clenched her fist. Endure! One day she would pay it back in double.
The Embroidered Uniform Guard lifted up everything on her bed and looked under the bed. One of the Imperial Secret Service guards was about to squat down and examine the bottom of the bed. A wild cat jumped out from nowhere and grabbed the Imperial Secret Service member’s face. A few scratches were left on the face of the Imperial Secret Service member.
A miserable scream came out from inside the house, Imperial Consort Leng immediately stood up and walked over. Noticing the mottled blood on the Embroidered Uniform Guard’s face, she was at a loss.
“What is this?” Imperial Consort Leng asked.
“Wildcat, Imperial Consort be careful.”
Another miserable scream echoed in the air above the Huishang Hall. As the saying goes, good will be rewarded, while evil will be rewarded. These words were absolutely correct. Imperial Consort Leng was also caught by the wild cat’s jade hands. Qin Luofeng and Imperial Consort Yu looked at the cat claws and wanted to laugh.
“Return to the palace! This place is really strange, a wild cat actually ran out of here for no reason! ” Imperial Consort Leng was so angry that her face turned green. The guards had gone from looking for assassins to looking for a wild cat.
“Let’s see if she still dares to come here and cause trouble in the future.” Qin Luofei laughed.
“Why didn’t this wild cat grab a few of her mouths? “Good grudge!” The Imperial Consort Yu added.
“However, I don’t think I’ve seen any wild cats in the Huishang Hall. Where did this wild cat come from?” Qin Luofei had a puzzled look on her face.
Imperial Consort Yu laughed: “Anyways, just help us punish that woman.”
Both of their moods were much better.
“It’s getting late. It’s time for me to go back.” Imperial Consort Yu slowly got up.
“I’ll walk you out.” Qin Luofei also stood up at the same time, because the wound on her leg had not completely healed yet. After sitting for too long, suddenly standing up caused her leg to feel pain, and when she stood up, her body had lost its center of gravity.
“Sister Qin, what’s wrong?” Imperial Consort Yu asked.
Qin Luofei Yaoyao nodded, “It’s nothing, it’s just that I knelt that day for too long, injuring my ankle and knee.”
“This Imperial Consort Leng is too despicable, punishing him for everything, but she punished you to kneel in front of him.” The Imperial Consort Yu said angrily.
“Just take it as exercise.” Qin Luofei smiled.
“Let me look at your injury. It seems like it hurts a lot when I look at you like this.” Imperial Consort Yu immediately bent down and lifted Qin Luofei’s skirt.
It was shocking!
“Sister Qin, your ankle is swollen.” Imperial Consort Yu looked surprised.
“It’s fine, I’ve already applied the medicine for a few days and it will soon recover.” Qin Luofei forced a smile. This kind of injury was nothing to her. In her previous life, her legs had even been chopped off.
“You’re still saying that it’s okay even though it’s already like this? Didn’t you ask Imperial Physician Lin to watch it for you?” Imperial Consort Yu looked at Qin Luofei with a pampered expression.
“No, it’s just a minor injury. There’s no need to trouble the imperial physician.” There was another reason why Qin Luofei did not want to trouble the Imperial Physician Lin s, and that was because she did not want to come into contact with Leng Mu frequently. She was deliberately avoiding him.
“No, Xiao Qin is going to call Imperial Physician Lin over immediately to take a look. I can’t be at ease with you doing this. You even tried to persuade me to be fine, but you saw that you were injured, so you endured it yourself without saying a word. ” Imperial Consort Yu felt heartache when she saw Qin Luofei’s leg injury.
