Chapter 282 Abnormalities in the Inner Room
The head maid Qiushi looked up at the setting sun in the sky and shook her head.
"Wait a little longer! I'll notify the kitchen to prepare a new dinner. Wait until the imperial concubine wakes up before eating!"
So the two of them waited outside, from the time the sun was high in the sky until the moon came out.
There was still no movement from Concubine Xiao in the inner hall. The two worried maids panicked.
"Let's go in and take a look together?"
"Well, I can only disobey orders."
As they spoke, the two of them were about to raise their hands to knock on the door.
*
Just at this time, Aunt Yao, who had left the palace for the Prime Minister's Mansion, came back with a happy face.
The two senior palace maids seemed to have seen a savior. Without even saying hello, they hurriedly ran forward, grabbed Aunt Yao's hand, and started to talk anxiously.
"Madam Yao, you are finally back. The Imperial Concubine has been staying in the room since you left.
We didn't ask the servants to serve, we were worried but we didn't dare to disobey the Majesty's orders. You see, it's already this late?"
"What? The Imperial Concubine hasn't called yet?"
*
Aunt Yao was greatly surprised. She looked up at the darkening sky and her heart skipped a beat and she became anxious.
"Go in and take a look. The queen has been sleeping for the whole afternoon. How are you two doing your job?"
Yao Ma scolded the two and begged,
"Shouldn't you be awake at this hour? Oh God, please don't let anything happen to you!"
The more uneasy he felt, the more he walked forward and impatiently pushed open the closed door without knocking.
*
suddenly,
A few quick and ambiguous moans came into her ears from the inner room. No one could hear this sound more clearly than that of Nanny Yao.
She had just experienced one outside the palace this afternoon.
She paused for a moment.
The two senior palace maids also vaguely heard the unusual noise coming from the inner room. This familiar sound was only heard occasionally when the emperor came.
The two were startled and looked at each other subconsciously. A quick exchange of glances confirmed that
"Didn't you see the Emperor go in? No! Then what's going on?"
Then I saw Aunt Yao turned around and hurriedly lowered her voice to call out,
"Both of you get out."
The two of them hurriedly lowered their heads, said "yes", quickly withdrew their feet that had stepped in, and closed the door of the inner hall again.
Yao Ma, who was standing at the door, saw the two men looking at each other and understood that the emperor was not coming.
Who is that person? Her heart was beating wildly, and her blood was boiling. She was afraid that Concubine Xiao might have made a mistake and had an affair with the guard.
Then he walked quickly to the door of the inner room,
"Cough cough cough..."
He coughed hard a few times, then whispered to the inside,
"My Lady Imperial Concubine, are you awake? The nurse is back. She has come to see the Prime Minister!"
As soon as she said this.
Suddenly,
There was no sound at all in the inner room.
*
On the bed in the inner room,
Concubine Xiao, with rosy cheeks and as beautiful as a peach blossom, was exhausted after a whole afternoon of agony.
She begged the man beside her with a squinting look in her eyes.
"What should I do? The nanny is back. I...I."
"Hehehe" the man laughed softly in her ear and joked,
"Why are you so nervous? She can't find me.
"Okay! I'll spare you today. Don't worry. I will help you achieve whatever you want in your heart."
When Concubine Xiao heard this, her eyes instantly brightened. She knew what the man meant and couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth. Her face, which had already become that of a young girl in her twenties, became even more beautiful.
"Are you serious about what you said?"
The man did not answer, but gently pecked her upturned blood-red lips.
"Suddenly", the handsome man disappeared from the bed.
Concubine Xiao covered her mouth in surprise, fearing that if she wasn't careful she would scream and alert Aunt Yao who was outside the room.
But she quickly came to her senses, thinking that she had also traveled here in a strange way? !
Although it is shocking that a button turns into a human, maybe he was originally a human?! Otherwise, how can he cultivate immortality?
He was secretly annoyed that he was so blinded by lust that he didn't even ask clearly whether Button was a human or a monster.
But after she had prepared herself mentally and figured it out, she accepted it calmly. Thinking of the tenderness between the two, she smiled sweetly again.
*
He spoke lazily to the door of the inner room.
"Nanny, I just woke up."
She wanted to get up, but she felt so weak, as if all the strength in her body had been drained away, that she even had difficulty raising her arms.
She complained to the man in her heart and shouted hoarsely,
"Nanny, can you come in?"
Madam Yao waited for a long time, and finally heard the voice from the inner room. She pushed open the door with trepidation in her heart.
"My Lady, did you sleep well?"
"Yes. Nanny, have you explained everything clearly?"
"Well, it's done. The Prime Minister asked you to always urge His Royal Highness Prince Rui. Don't lose sight of the big picture because of small things."
*
After reporting back, Madam Yao came closer with dim eyesight.
I saw Concubine Xiao lying lazily on the bed, her eyes were dazed and she didn't hear what I said at all.
The pajamas were loosely covering his body, and he looked as if he had just experienced a violent storm and was in a dissolute state.
"Oh, my lady, please fasten your belt quickly!"
"Nanny, I'm very tired."
Aunt Yao was startled again when she heard this. She was even more surprised by the smell coming from the room.
This smell? If her nose hadn't failed, she wouldn't have been mistaken.
Her eyes quickly looked around, but there was nothing.
There was no room for anyone to hide in this familiar room.
"Empress, what's wrong with you?"
"I have nothing to do. I am very tired after a long sleep. What time is it? I am hungry. Please serve me some food!"
"Here, nurse will dress you right away."
"Ah."
*
Concubine Xiao didn't want Aunt Yao to notice anything, but she was aching all over as if she was falling apart.
I couldn't get up, and my stomach was growling with hunger, making me feel extremely uncomfortable.
I knew that the nanny couldn't see people, so even if I had suspicions, it was just wild guesses.
What she didn't know was that the spots and bruises all over her body could not deceive Aunt Yao's eyes.
"My Lady, what happened to you?"
Concubine Xiao opened her eyes in confusion and followed Madam Yao's gaze to look at her chest.
She screamed "Ah" and covered her chest.
The red spots were clearly visible. She knew she was careless and said embarrassedly,
"Don't worry, I did it all myself. Nanny, you know that no matter how much the emperor loves you, he won't come every night.
Nanny, such a lonely life is too tormenting!"
When Aunt Yao heard this, she immediately thought of herself and tears welled up in her eyes.
She gently put clothes on Concubine Xiao, but still advised her,
"My lady, you better be careful in the future and don't hurt yourself.
If the emperor suddenly comes over one day, won't your behavior cause misunderstanding?"
