Chapter 224: The Martial King Doing the Work of a Servant
y regained her composure, but the sound of horses' hooves, rising and falling, reached her ears.On the official road, dozens of sturdy steeds galloped at full speed, kicking up dust and sand, their ho...Fu Zi Mo’s steps faltered, he turned his head slightly, and let out a cold snort. “What Are you saying that I asked her to come to the palace to learn etiquette, to learn how to suffer Or do you want to torment her to death and then have me marry the woman you want me to marry Then just tell me, who do you want me to marry Aren't a few women enough Even King Wuxuan can afford them. As long as they are willing to remain single for Xiao Changyue’s sake!”
After finishing his speech, Fu Zimo hugged Qin Luoyan and walked out of the plum grove, leaving the others staring at each other in surprise.
Under heaven, perhaps only King Wuxuan dared to show disrespect to Emperor Fuzhengheng's face. Yet, this scene seemed perfectly natural.
When everyone came to their senses, King Wuxuan had already left Meilin with Qin Luoyan in his arms.
In the forest, the Empress shivered slightly. She wasn't just feeling Fu Zi Mo's murderous aura, she also saw the Emperor's ashen face. Having followed the Emperor for many years, she wouldn't think his bad complexion was because of Wu Xuan Wang putting on airs for him. It was because she hadn't taken good care of Qin Luo Yan.
For so many years, perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, Fu Zi Heng was the emperor and Fu Zi Mo was his loyal minister. However, for some reason, after following Fu Zi Heng for so long, she discovered that these two people who should have been secretly vying for power actually had a deeper bond than ordinary brothers.
Fu Zimuo was truly angry, and Fu Zi Heng, because of Fu Zimuo's anger, became angry.
The Empress dared not speak. At this juncture, it was Wei Guifei who stepped forward to ease the tension, “Your Majesty, it seems that Prince Wuxuan truly cares for Miss Qin this time. However, things have come to this, and Prince Wuxuan must have been carried away by the moment. When I return, I'll bring some gifts to visit Princess Luo Yan at Prince Wuxuan’s residence. As long as everyone is alright, that's all that matters."
Her words were kind and considerate. Just moments ago, she was still Qin girl, but now she's become Luoyan sister. The women in the palace could all understand the meaning behind this subtle change.
Maybe it's just that men's thoughts aren't as delicate as women's. Wei Guifei's words finally eased Fu Ziheng's heart a little. He nodded, "You still have a kind heart."
"This is exactly what I, as a servant, should do. I also quite like Luo Yan's personality. Even if it weren't for Wang Wuxuan's connection, I would still want to get to know this sister of mine well. After all, I don't have many friends to begin with, and there aren't many people I truly get along with."
A flash of light crossed Wei Guifei's eyes. While others were focused on Wuxuan Wangfu Zimu, her gaze was always fixed on the current emperor, Fu Ziheng. Though unnoticed by others, she had seen the trace of admiration in Fu Ziheng's eyes towards Qin Luoyan earlier.
To thrive in the palace and repeatedly gain the emperor's favor, isn't it all about observing words and actions and catering to his preferences
But this scene made the Empress hate to the point of nearly gritting her silver teeth.
Night is alluring, stars blanket the sky, twinkling points of light dance, captured in one's gaze, yet leaving only a chilling illusion.
Dr. Chen, a man of great misfortune, propped up a small stool in front of the kitchen door. Sitting on the stool, he sighed and gazed up at the stars in the night sky. His face, etched with wrinkles, was clouded with dejection. He shook his head and let out another sigh, "Alas!"
"Dr. Chen, if the other maids saw you like this, they would tease you all day long." Mu He also stood at the kitchen door, couldn't help but joke.
Dr. Chen turned back, his face full of resentment, "As the head physician of the Imperial Medical Bureau, why am I always the one who has to come to Prince Wu's mansion as a little medicine boy whenever Miss Qin gets sick or injured Isn't this a waste of my talent Why, I ask you, why is that"
Mù Hě's mouth twitched, he gave a wry smile, "The prescription you provided, with you concocting the medicine yourself, wouldn't that be the best way to preserve its potency If it were any other inexperienced apprentice pharmacist, they might not even retain half the efficacy of your prescription."
The horse should be placed in the highest place. With these words, Mu He finally eased Chen Taiyi's heart. "That being said, as an old man of my status, it is really...a bit much to come here and make medicine."
"Dr. Chen, what do you have to complain about Don't you see our King is personally serving Princess Qin porridge in her room He's doing the work of a servant girl! And look at you, you are only doing the work of an apprentice. But even that position is higher than a maid! Our King isn't complaining, so why are you Isn't that right"
Hearing what Mu He said, Dr. Chen slapped his forehead and laughed, “That’s right! In that case, I’m still more respected by others. You’re good, boy! Your head is bright.”
Mu He smiled wryly, his mouth twitching subtly.
Dr. Chen's face was full of joy, as if he felt satisfied, but as he smiled, he always felt something was amiss.
In the guest rooms of the main courtyard, Fu Zimo, holding a bowl of porridge, sneezed unexpectedly. Fortunately, he turned his face away when he sneezed, so the porridge in his hand remained unharmed.
"The King sneezes too" Qin Luoyan's eyes sparkled with mischief.
Fu Zi Mo was stared at by her, feeling inexplicably strange. He frowned and said, "Why can't this king sneeze"
Qin Luoyan laughed as she said, “I don't know why, but I always feel that the King is not like an ordinary person. Well, how should I say it In our words, he's the god among gods, and he shouldn't be involved in worldly affairs. Suddenly appearing in such a grounded scene feels a bit out of place.”
Her smile was pure and sincere, causing Fu Zimo's eyes to momentarily lose focus. He swallowed, saying, "The you before me gives this king a feeling that is somewhat unfamiliar."
"Huh" Qin Luoyan blinked and looked at him curiously.
Fu Zi Mo stood up, placing the rice porridge bowl aside. He reached out and gently lifted her chin, saying slowly, "All this time, you've given me the impression of being strong-willed and cunning. You're only in your teens, yet sometimes your eyes have a maturity that's frightening. You say you're just a girl, what experiences have shaped you into who you are"
Qin Luoyan let out a light laugh, "Your Highness, as a woman from a brothel, I'm used to seeing all sorts of things in life. Of course, I'm not like those little girls of ten or so."
Though she has lived two lifetimes, deep down she is a mature woman desperate to get married. How could she possibly be as innocent as a teenager
"Oh" Fu Zi Mo smiled noncommittally, his gaze locked on hers. "Even now, you're trying to fool this King You're sure you won't tell this King the truth This King will only give you one chance. You can choose to speak or not, but you should know, this King has never been a person who is played with."
