Chapter 58
"Lady Jiyue......"
Princess Ariel's voice grew closer.
I stared at myself in the mirror and then at the door of the bedroom, a little overwhelmed.
Gulnur outside the door is the last line of defense.
I immediately sat cross-legged in the room with my eyes closed, trying to calm myself down so that my eyes could return to normal as soon as possible.
Through the door I overheard their conversation.
"Princess Ariel!" said Gulinur, who stopped at the door, "Miss Jiyue is unwell and has rested. ”
Princess Ariel didn't speak, but Concubine Wen beside her spoke first.
"Oops!" Concubine Wen's voice pretended to be surprised came from outside the door, "Sister Princess, Miss Jiyue is not feeling well, we have to go in and take a look!"
"Hmm......" said Princess Ariel, "here!
"Yes!"
There was a sound of footsteps coming downstairs.
"Princess! Miss Jiyue just need to get a good night's sleep!" said Gulinur anxiously.
"Presumptuous! Someone will pull this stinky girl away for me!" Concubine Wen shouted, "A little maid dares to be so arrogant! If you dare to ignore your dignity and humility, don't blame me for being unkind!"
There was a rush and rubbing against the door, and the sound of messy footsteps suddenly sounded, and soon the calm outside the door returned.
My eyes were back to normal at this point.
I looked at myself in the mirror and breathed a sigh of relief.
I immediately took off my outer skirt, lay down on the bed, and said with a faint breath: "Gulnur...... Ahem...... Who's out there?"
Gulnur didn't stop them in the end.
The door slammed open.
"Sister!" Ariel immediately stepped forward, sat down on the edge of the bed, and said with a worried expression, "What's wrong with you?"
I looked at Princess Ariel with a slight stunnedness.
I give her full marks for her acting skills!
I almost believed that she really cared about me!
Concubine Wen also immediately squeezed up: "Oops...... Miss Jiyue, what's the matter! Coughing so badly! What about the imperial doctor! What about the imperial doctor! Really! Why haven't you come yet!"
Concubine Wen, a well-deserved Best Supporting Actress!
I looked at these two women in disbelief, and my heart was already full of exclamation points.
A girl from the Western Regions ran in.
"Princess Qiyu, the imperial doctor is here!"
"Please!" said Princess Ariel.
I noticed that her eyes were rolling, and I couldn't help but be a little vigilant.
When the Imperial Physician walked in, I couldn't help but be surprised.
The male physician looked to be in his thirties.
He's a native of the Western Regions.
I found that his face was calm and even, his steps were calm and light, and he was not an ordinary person at first glance!
The aura he exudes gives me a sense of déjà vu.
It's so familiar.
That's right!
This Imperial Doctor is an exorcist at all!
Princess Ariel said with a smile on her face, "Miss Jiyue, you can let the imperial doctor take your pulse." Lest we be worried about you. ”
How could I not understand Princess Ariel's intentions at this moment.
I'm afraid she's been staring at me for a long time.
"In that case, then I will thank the princess first!" I calmly stretched out my wrist.
The imperial doctor's eyes immediately lit up, and he took my pulse seriously.
I saw that his brow was sometimes stretched and sometimes locked, as if my pulse made him a little uncertain.
Actually, I was very worried.
After all, before they came in, I used to be like a beast.
The imperial doctor slowly withdrew his hand, got up and bowed to Princess Ariel, and said, "Princess, this girl's body is fine, she just needs to prescribe a few pairs of Chinese medicine to take care of it." ”
"Is that true?!" Princess Ariel said with her eyes suddenly widened and her voice raised.
Her unwilling expression jumped on her face.
When Princess Ariel noticed that I was looking at her, she immediately reverted to her modest and elegant appearance.
"Since this is the case, then there is labor, Qi Mude has to prescribe a prescription for Miss Jiyue!"
Princess Ariel kindly took my hand and said, "Miss Jiyue, you have a good rest. I'll see you another day. ”
I smiled and nodded, "Okay! Thank you, Princess, I'm not feeling well, so I won't get up to see you off!"
"Princess!"
Concubine Wen rushed to Princess Ariel's side to say something, but was glared back by Princess Ariel's beautiful eyes.
Concubine Wen gave me a fierce look, pursed her lips very reluctantly, and left with Princess Ariel.
After a while, the voice of a servant came from downstairs.
"Princess Ariel, King Khan is going to sleep in your palace tonight, and I ask the princess to return to the palace as soon as possible to prepare in advance. ”
“...... What do you say. Princess Ariel couldn't hide her surprise anymore.
The servant could only say it again: "Princess Ariel, the Khan will sleep in your palace tonight, and please return to the palace as soon as possible to prepare in advance." ”
“......”
There was silence downstairs.
I turned off the lights and sneaked to the window, and the garden was brightly lit with lanterns.
Princess Ariel's face was full of joy and bewilderment.
I remember Gulnur saying that King Namurakhan never seemed to have really favored any of his harem concubines since he ascended to the throne.
It's no wonder that Princess Ariel reacted in this way.
"Princess...... Princess...... Congratulations, Princess, it's time for us to go back to the palace!"
The girl next to Princess Ariel was anxiously reminding her.
“...... Go back to the palace!"
Princess Ariel was excited, and quickly left, surrounded by girls and servants.
Concubine Wen looked up at Princess Ariel who was riding on the sedan chair in a daze, and kept watching like that, until Princess Ariel's back was drowned in the night, she turned around stiffly, and accompanied by the two girls, she walked in the direction of her palace.
She didn't take a sedan chair, and in this dark night, the two girls supported her left and right.
Concubine Wen staggered on the night road back to the palace, leaving a melancholy and lonely slender back, which slowly disappeared from my sight.
These are the poor women in the deep palace!
"Alas......"
I couldn't help but sigh.
Kaki and Ryoko stood behind me in unison.
"Ji Yue, don't sigh!" said Ke Mu, "You have a good rest tonight. We'll go out for a stroll tomorrow night! Ryoko, stay with you. ”
As Kemu was about to leave the room, a pair of eyes suddenly turned blood-red.
This change took me by surprise.
Because except when he is sucking blood, his eyes rarely turn blood-red.
"Kemu, what's wrong with you?" I stared at him nervously, "where are you uncomfortable?"
"Shhhh
He lowered his voice and said, "Someone outside is watching your room, you wait for me." I'll go out and have a look!"
"Be careful!" I said.
"Hmm, don't worry!" Koki nodded at me and Ryoko.
He left my room and went straight downstairs.
I don't know why, but my heart suddenly became very unsteady, and my eyelids kept jumping.
I took Ryoko and followed him downstairs.
Ke Mu's face was a little grim, he did not simply fly out of the upstairs window as usual, but after changing into a servant's clothes, he slowly walked towards the entrance of the garden.
I left Ryoko in the house.
Gulnur accompanied me, not far behind Kemu.
When Kemu walked to the gate of the garden, countless sharp arrows suddenly shot at Kemu from the surrounding shadows.
I was so frightened that I used almost all my strength to shout, "Be careful!"
