Chapter 401 - 401 Young Master Ji Yunxi (3)



“Eunuch Li, send him out of the palace.”

Emperor Chong’an’s voice came from inside. Eunuch Li quickly agreed and personally helped Song Jingchen out of the palace.

On the other side of the palace path, a woman in red wearing a veil slowly walked over. Song Jingchen took a look and retracted his gaze.

That woman was not dressed as a palace concubine, nor was she any princess he had seen. However, she was heading towards the imperial study.

!!

Eunuch Li seemed to have seen through his confusion and explained, “That’s Miss Ji. A while ago, His Majesty’s body was unwell. The imperial physicians of the Imperial Hospital gave him a prescription, but he hasn’t recovered. The old prince was worried about His Majesty’s dragon body, so he introduced this person to the palace.”

The old prince that Eunuch Li was talking about was the late emperor’s only younger brother. The late emperor fought half of the war. By the time Great Xia was established, his parents had long passed away, leaving him with only his younger brother.

It was said that when a person achieved the Dao, they would ascend to the heavens. Wasn’t this the case when it came to the old king?

The late emperor immediately conferred him a title and a fiefdom. He even used the word “Xia”, Emperor Xia.

Moreover, he was exempted from kneeling and there was no need to go to the fief. He was really in the limelight. Everyone was worried that this person would have ulterior motives. After all, Great Xia could not withstand the war back then.

Fortunately, this person did not have such thoughts at all. He usually did not even enter the royal court and only treated himself as an idle lord.

The old prince and the old princess consort grew up together. The couple was deeply in love.

Over the years, the old princess consort’s health had been deteriorating, so the old king searched for extraordinary people from the commoners to extend her life. This was how Miss Ji was found.

After hearing that Miss Ji had entered the prince’s residence, the old princess consort’s health really improved every day. Originally, she could barely eat, but now, she could get out of bed and walk every day.

In the end, Eunuch Li added, “Although Miss Ji is only 16 or 17 years old, she’s capable. After treating His Majesty’s illness, His Majesty left her in the palace to refine pills for him. I think His Majesty’s health has indeed been improving recently.”

This was no longer a secret. Even among the commoners, there were many legends about Miss Ji. Even if Eunuch Li didn’t say anything, Song Jingchen could ask casually.

Therefore, Eunuch Li did not betray Emperor Chong’an.

Coincidentally, they had already arrived at the palace gate. Song Jingchen arrived at the palace in a carriage this morning. Eunuch Li was about to instruct someone to drive a carriage over.

Song Jingchen, who had been silent along the way, said, “There’s no need. My wife is here to pick me up.”

Eunuch Li was stunned. Why did his tone sound a little smug?

He looked up at Song Jingchen as if he had seen a ghost and saw a smile on his face.

He looked completely different from the weak man who needed his help just now. His face was rosy, and it was probably easy for him to kill a tiger.

Song Jingchen pulled his arm out of Eunuch Li’s hand and smiled at the woman who got out of the carriage.

Shen Yijia ran towards him with sparkling eyes and held his arm. “Hubby.”

It was too stuffy in the carriage and it was too hot to stand outside. Shen Yijia’s forehead was already covered in a layer of sweat.

With just these two words, Song Jingchen felt that the violent aura that he had suppressed in his heart for the entire day had disappeared. His heart warmed.

Song Jingchen used his sleeve to carefully wipe the sweat off her forehead and asked, “Why are you here?”

“I went to send Furball home today and saw that you weren’t back yet. However, I really wanted to see you, so I came here to pick you up.” After Furball left, Shen Yijia felt a little uncomfortable and wanted to see Song Jingchen.

Song Jingchen rubbed her head. This girl was still so straightforward.

“Been waiting a long time, have you?” he asked.

“No, it’s only been two hours.”

The two of them got into the carriage. Rooster waved his whip, and the horse dragged the carriage away.

Eunuch Li was speechless.

When did he learn to become invisible?

When Eunuch Li introduced Miss Ji to Song Jingchen, the woman in red also noticed Song Jingchen.

She stopped in her tracks and frowned at Song Jingchen’s back. She asked the palace maid behind her, “Who was that just now?”

“It’s the original heir of the Bulwark Duke’s residence, Song Jingchen. He was recalled to the capital by His Majesty because he had contributed to saving Xunyang City.”

“Song Jingchen?” the woman in red muttered. The red flower bud on her forehead looked especially coquettish under the sunlight.

Unfortunately, Song Jingchen had only glanced at her casually and didn’t see her clearly. Otherwise, he would have known that the flower bud on this woman’s forehead was exactly the same as the one Shen Yijia had deliberately hidden.

“Young Master?” Mo Yu reminded her from behind.

Ji Yunxi came back to her senses and handed the box in her hand to a maidservant beside her. “Send this in and tell His Majesty that there’s a missing herb in the palace. I’m leaving the palace to pick herbs.”

With that, she turned around and walked out of the palace.

“Young Master? Is there anything wrong with that person?” Mo Yu quickly followed.

“I can’t read his physiognomy.” Ji Yunxi frowned. After a pause, she said, “I need his birth characters.”
