Chapter 140 The Emperor's Favored Concubine is Heartbroken (36)

"He was coveting... a woman he could never have, and that's why he got sick. What do you call it in your Central Plains dialect..."

Having said this, he touched his chin, as if he was thinking hard.

After a few breaths, Helian Yu spoke loudly with a mischievous smile, "I remember now, it's called lovesickness!"

The more Huo Haochu listened, the more frightened he became.

Could it be that Helian Yu realized that he liked Concubine Shen?

Strange, how did he know that?

He obviously hid his thoughts very well!

Shen Qingjiao, who was standing by, heard what Helian Yu said. At first, she didn't quite believe it.

It was not until she saw Huo Haochu's handsome face blushing that she began to wonder: Could it be that this wooden stake has come to his senses and has someone he likes?

She blinked and sighed softly: I wonder which noble lady is so unlucky to be favored by such an unromantic man.

Shen Qingjiao's suspicious eyes moved around Huo Haochu again and again.

Huo Haochu felt a little embarrassed by her straightforward look, and his ears turned red.

He finally couldn't help but coughed lightly.

"Ahem—"

Only then did Shen Qingjiao notice that her eyes were a little revealing and she quickly turned her head away.

Seeing Helian Yu snickering beside her, Shen Qingjiao found a new topic.

"General, the Third Prince is ill. It is inconvenient to inform the Imperial Hospital about this. After I write the prescription, I plan to ask you to go outside and get the medicine. Is that ok?"

Hearing this, Huo Haochu's long-suppressed anger was finally ignited.

Throughout the day, Concubine Shen talked about Helian Yu every other sentence!

Is that man so important to her?

In her heart, is he still inferior to the third prince of Xirong? ? ?

Sensing the rising resentment from Huo Haochu, Shen Qingjiao was confused for a long time.

What happened to General Huo? He looked like he was going to eat someone?

Shen Qingjiao thought about it, gently touched the corner of Huo Haochu's clothes, and asked him to follow her.

It was not until the two of them walked to the other side of the courtyard that Shen Qingjiao spoke in a low voice, "I have a request for the Third Prince, and he is now poisoned. If I don't take action, he won't live long."

Huo Haochu stared at her silently, his eyes dark, which made her feel uneasy.

Shen Qingjiao frowned slightly.

If Huo Haochu didn't believe it, she didn't know how to explain it.

After all, the drought was six months away.

She was just worrying when a man's magnetic voice suddenly came from above her head, "Okay."

Shen Qingjiao raised her head suddenly, with stars in her eyes, and asked in surprise, "General, are you willing to help me?"

Huo Haochu nodded, which was considered as his agreement.

It was not difficult to go to the pharmacy outside to get medicine for Concubine Shen.

Just now he thought that Concubine Shen was in love with the third prince, so she came to ask him for help.

He couldn't bear it for a moment and lost control of his emotions.

Looking at her current state, she must have some unspeakable secret that forced her to help cure the third prince's illness.

If Concubine Shen is in trouble, he will naturally help her without hesitation.

Seeing that Huo Haochu agreed to help her, Shen Qingjiao's lips curled up slightly, and her smile was like a peach bud blooming freely.

Huo Haochu's heart couldn't help but beat wildly.

"Witch!" Huo Haochu gritted his teeth and cursed softly.

"Hmm? What is the general saying?" Shen Qingjiao didn't hear clearly and asked him again.

Of course Huo Haochu couldn't say it directly.

He stammered and evaded the question, "No, nothing."

Thinking of the important matter, he took out the letter from his arms and handed it to Shen Qingjiao, "Madam, there is a letter from your grandmother's family."

Shen Qingjiao opened the envelope and quickly glanced through the letter.

The first half is about her grandmother and uncles caring about how she was doing after entering the palace, and the second half writes that they agreed to open a Zuixianlou branch in Yong'an City and said that all the profits would belong to her.

After reading the letter, her nose felt a little sore.

There is no doubt that my grandmother's family loved the original owner so much that they were willing to give all the profits to her without taking a penny.

On the other side, Helian Yu became more and more unhappy.

I don’t know what General Huo showed the imperial concubine that moved her to tears.

A strange sense of crisis arose in his heart.

For some reason, he felt uncomfortable when he saw the imperial concubine being so close to another man.

"Cough cough cough—"

Helian Yu deliberately coughed loudly, intending to remind Shen Qingjiao that he was still a patient and needed the doctor's care and concern.

Shen Qingjiao's attention was drawn back by his cough.

She suddenly remembered that Helian Yu's illness could not be delayed any longer, so she quickly called Zhu Ling to bring paper and pen, quickly wrote down a prescription, and handed it to Huo Haochu.

After receiving the prescription, Huo Haochu said goodbye to Shen Qingjiao and was about to leave Yongshou Palace.

He suddenly remembered something and turned his head to look at Helian Yu, only to find that he was still sitting there, with no intention of leaving.

Huo Haochu stared at Helian Yu with deep eyes, "Third Prince, do you have anything else to trouble Concubine Shen with?"

Considering that the other party was helping him get medicine, Helian Yu could only soften his attitude, coughed lightly, and said, "Nothing, Xiao Wang will leave now."

For several days.

Helian Yu would come to Yongshou Palace regularly to take the medicine prepared by Shen Qingjiao.

After about a week, he slowly felt the medication taking effect.

In the past, he was prone to nightmares and often tossed and turned and had restless sleep.

Sometimes I would wake up from my sleep with my back covered in sweat, as if I had just been fished out of the water.

But after taking the medicine for these days, he slept soundly every night, basically sleeping until dawn, and his face gradually became rosy.

A few days later, Helian Yu came to find Shen Qingjiao.

He said mysteriously, "My Lady, my men discovered that there are a large number of guns and cannons hidden in the basement of a courtyard in the capital!"

Hearing this, Shen Qingjiao was stunned.

Who is so bold as to build an arsenal under the feet of the emperor?

Does this person want to rebel?

However, she wanted to go and see what the underground arsenal looked like to broaden her horizons.

So Shen Qingjiao suggested, "Third Prince, I want to go out of the palace to see if you can let me pretend to be your follower. In this way, I should be able to hide my identity and leave the palace smoothly."

Helian Yu's eyes lit up, "That's a good idea. I'll go back immediately and get a set of attendant clothes."

As soon as Helian Yu brought the attendant's clothes, Shen Qingjiao changed into them immediately.

Then, Zhu Ling removed the red hairpin from her temples, and her black hair fell like a waterfall.

Zhu Ling combed her hair gently several times and then hid her beautiful hair in the hat.

Shen Qingjiao leaned towards the mirror and looked.

At this moment, she looked like a beautiful young servant with red lips and white teeth.

Zhu Ling exclaimed, "Your Majesty is indeed naturally beautiful. Such simple clothes still do not diminish your beauty in the slightest."

Shen Qingjiao smiled and said, "It doesn't matter whether it's beautiful or not, as long as it can deceive the guards at the palace gate."

Afterwards, Shen Qingjiao instructed Zhu Ling and Xiao Zhongzi to close the palace gates.

She disguised herself as Helian Yu's follower and followed them towards the palace gate.

Two quarters of an hour later.

When the gatekeepers saw Helian Yu coming over here, they immediately saluted respectfully, "Third Prince, how are you?"

Helian Yu nodded slightly, "The little prince is leaving the palace, please check."

The goalkeeper glanced at the team behind Helian Yu with a serious expression.

Shen Qingjiao held her breath, lowered her head, and tried her best to reduce her presence.
