Chapter 270

~ THE EMPEROR WANTS TO SEE MU YUNYAO? ~

Initially, Mu Yunyao tried her best to empty her thoughts into a hollow so that the pain in her body can be relieved a bit . After hearing Jin Lan’s question, she suddenly came back to her senses, “Tell his people to go back and tell them that we have the usual medicine for traumatic injuries prepared here, and we don’t need a doctor to come and check on it again . Also, take a bottle of Red Injury Medicine and tell the person who came over to said to My Elder Cousin that he needs to take good care of himself . ”

Today, she could smell the scent of blood emanating from Su Qingwu . It was as though he had been injured somewhere . Since he was the first to express his goodwill, she had to respond in any way . He might even be of use in the future .

“Yes, Miss . ”

Su Qingwu took a small bottle of medicine from his attendant and slightly rotated it around his finger, making his eyes became extremely deep .

The attendant repeated the words sent by Jin Lan . “ . . . Young Master, please rest early . The Third Prince said that he would not come to visit you in residence because it’s going to be a long day’s work . ”

“I understand . You can leave now . ” After his attendant left, Su Qingwu looked at the medicine bottle in his hand for a long time . He seemed to be deep in thought, but he didn’t know what he was thinking . Then, he put the bottle away in a drawer and lay down on the bed to have a rest .

The next morning, when he had just gotten up, he saw his attendant hurriedly walking in, “Young Master, someone from the Palace has arrived . ”

Su Qingwu’s eyebrows moved: “I think it should be to issue some rewards . If you are nervous, just set up an incense table to welcome him . ”

Su Qingwu’s eyes quivered, and between his eyebrows, a frown appeared . “Did Mother know about it?”

“The Eldest Madam already knows . She’s taking some people to Jiyue Pavilion right now . ”

At this moment, not only was the Eldest Madam alarmed . But, the entire Su family’s backyard was also in a state of panic . Old Madam Sun naturally knew what had happened yesterday . However, she also had the same thoughts as the Eldest Madam . She thought that Mu Yunyao wouldn’t be able to stir up any trouble and totally regarded Mu Yunyao’s words as a joke . No one expected that, just after one night, suddenly there was news from the Palace that the Emperor wanted to see her!

Currently, Mu Yunyao’s face was covered with injuries . Although she had only been hit two times, she probably wouldn’t be able to walk easily because of her delicate appearance . How could she enter the Palace like this?

In Jiyue Pavillion, Mu Yunyao was sitting on a chair with a pale face, and two cushions were placed behind her back . Her body was also still covered in a cold sweat from the pain . Her face was filled with an apologetic expression as she spoke to Eunuch Li, who had come to deliver the imperial edict, “It’s been a while . Has Lord Li been well?”

This Lord Li is Li De, who went to Jingling City last time to give a decree and reward, and is the apprentice of Xu Li, the current head of the internal servant: “You can’t call me ‘Lord Li’ like this . It is already an honor to be called ‘Eunuch Li’ by you . When I heard from my master that the Emperor wanted to summon you into the Palace, I immediately took over the work as soon as I heard it . It’s just that Miss Mu’s face is not very good?”

Mu Yunyao’s smile became a bit forced, but she shook her head slightly . “It’s nothing . Maybe because I just came to the Capital, so I’m not acclimatized to it . ”

Eunuch Li’s gaze turned to the bluish-purple palm print on her face . You can’t get a slap mark on your face if you aren’t acclimatized . He knew in his heart that she must have been hit, but he still followed Mu Yunyao’s words, “The climate of the Capital and Jingling City are very different, so it’s possible that Miss Mu isn’t able to acclimatize yet . If you take a rest longer, you will be fine . However, Young Miss might enter the Palace tomorrow?”

“Yunyao was lucky enough that the Emperor had set his eyes on her, and he gave her rewards several times . Not to mention feeling a little uncomfortable, even if she broke her leg, she still had to crawl to the Palace to kowtow and express gratitude to the Emperor . ” Mu Yunyao had a sincere smile on her face as her words came out from her mouth, always let people feel sincere .

Eunuch Li nodded his head and said with a smile, “Please get more rest . After the message is delivered, I will not stay any longer . ”

Mu Yunyao looked at Jin Lan . Jin Lan hurriedly took a purse and gave it to Eunuch Li, “I’ll have to trouble Eunuch to come here in a hurry and during his busy schedule . Please have some tea on your way back . ”

“Then, I’ll thank Miss Mu . ” After that, he put the purse back into his sleeve . With a flip of his hand, there was no trace of it .

Mu Yunyao asked Jin Qiao to help her get up to see Eunuch Li off . Just as she arrived at the courtyard’s entrance, she saw the Eldest Madam, who had brought her people over in a hurry . “Greetings, Eldest Aunt . ”

“Greetings, Madam Meng . ” Eunuch Li cupped his hands and bowed .

The Eldest Madam smiled, apparently knowing that he is the head of the internal servant’s apprentice . “Eunuch Li, why are you so anxious to leave? I’ve already ordered people to hold a banquet, so you should eat something before departing . Yunyao, you too, Eunuch Li came all the way here to convey the Emperor’s announcement . Why didn’t you let him stay for a while?”

The smile on Mu Yunyao’s face was light, “It’s my fault . ”

Eunuch Li, on the other side, quickly smiled and said, “There are still many matters to attend to in the Palace . There is absolutely no time to spare today . Let Madam Meng prepare one for nothing . I will definitely come to apologize another day . ”

“What are you saying, Eunuch Li? Since the Palace is busy, we naturally cannot delay it . If there is a chance in the future, we will invite Eunuch Li to have a drink some other day . ”

Eunuch Li smiled and cupped his hands, “Then we shall take our leave first . ”

“Send Eunuch Li off . ”

After waiting for Eunuch Li to leave, Mu Yunyao’s legs fiercely staggered as she leaned directly on Jin Qiao’s body . Her face was so white that it didn’t have the slightest hint of blood on it .

Jin Qiao cried out in alarm . “Miss, please hold on a little . This servant will help you go back and rest . ”

The Eldest Madam’s smiling face froze on the spot, but she had no choice but to grind her teeth and follow Jin Qiao’s footsteps to Mu Yunyao’s room to visit her .

After settling down, Su Qing stood by the bed and secretly shed tears . “Eldest Sister-in-law, Yunyao was born prematurely, so she’s always been weak . I’m afraid she won’t be able to talk to you right now . ”

The Eldest Madam smiled more stiffly: “Yao’er’s health is more important, so you should blame me for not being able to stop that little girl Yanran yesterday . She was supposed to be playing around with her little sisters . But who knew that things would turn out like this? I’ll definitely properly talk about her and have her apologize to Yao’er . ”

There was no need to mention how furious the Eldest Madam was when she said these words . However, she couldn’t help but says that . If she didn’t appease Mu Yunyao right now and let her speak nonsense in front of the Emperor, things would really be terrible .

Mu Yunyao laid on the bed with her eyes closed as if she had already passed out . No matter what the Eldest Madam said, she didn’t open her eyes to reply .

The Eldest Madam’s heart very annoyed, this shameless girl! But there is no other way . She can only leave bitterly and go to the Old Madam to ask for an idea .

At this moment, Old Madam Sun’s heart was similarly restless . She had only used a small amount of time for breakfast before stopping her chopsticks . Upon hearing that the Eldest Madam had come seeking an audience, her expression darkened as she ordered Wen Mama to call for her .

“Greetings, Mother . ” After the Eldest Madam entered, she formally bowed to her . However, as soon as she finished speaking, she could not hear the Old Madam calling out to her . Therefore, she could only maintain her posture as she remained frozen on the spot, her thoughts slowly sinking down .

After drank half a cup of tea, Old Madam Sun finally opened her mouth . “These two days, my energy has been running out, so I’ve been so distracted that I forgot to ask you to get up . Quickly, sit down and have a rest . ”

The Eldest Madam’s smile didn’t waver as she heard her words, revealing a look of worry . “Mother’s body isn’t well, so why didn’t you take the post and ask for the imperial physician to come and take a look? It’s all because this daughter-in-law is not filial . During this time, they were too preoccupied with Sister Su Qing’s matters that I forget to take care of you . Please asked Mother to punish me .
