I know nothing about such things, Maomao replied, not wanting to over-guess herself.
Dear Readers. Scrapers have recently been devasting our views. At this rate, the site (creativenovels ) might...let's just hope it doesn't co to that. If you are reading on a scraper site. Please don't.
It wasnt that she was being modest. She knew what kind of illness it was, and she had also seen patients with it. That was why she had said that. Its not a disease you can cure with dicine.
It was a neurosis.
When the brothels courtesans were inflicted with this disease, her dad didnt prescribe them any dicine. It wasnt sothing that can be cured with dicine after all.
When you say that it cant be cured by dicine
What can cure it then?he asked.
My expertise is drugs. Though she ant to declare it, from a fleeting glance in her peripheral, she saw the gloominess that suffused in his heavenly face.
(We mustnt make eye contact.)
She averted from the young mans gaze as if she were handling a wild animal. She was unable to avert the avert. He ca around towards Maomao.
Hes quite persistent. Hes quite annoying.
Ill make an effort, she replied, extrely reluctantly.
The one who ca around at midnight was the eunuch Gaoshun. Though she thought he was hard to get along with his quietness and his lack of expression, Maomao actually felt a wave of affinity towards him.
(He really doesnt feel like a eunuch.)
It was common for eunuchs, having their physical yang parts removed to beco more feminine. Their body hair thins, their personalities beco calm, and in exchange for libido, they gain appetites for food and it becos easy for them to put on weight. The easiest to understand as an example was the quack doctor.
In the case of Gaoshun, while his hair wasnt dense, he was fearless. If he was not in a place like the inner palace, he could be mistaken as a military official.
(Why did he choose this path?)
She knew that this wasnt sothing she should ask even if she was curious. She clamd her mouth shut and shook her head.
Gaoshun led the way with a lantern in one hand.
It was a half moon, but it was bright with no clouds. The inside of the palace she had only seen at noon was like a different place.
Sotis, there were rustling sounds. She heard sounds of heavy breathing from the shade of the tree sohow, but she decided to ignore it.
Well, as the imperial court had no actual n aside from the emperor, it was inevitable that the shape of love was warped.
Maomao-sama, Gaoshun spoke to her.
Only allowed on
I dont need a title. Gaoshun-samas rank is higher, Maomao said.
Then, Shaomao(, Xiao Mao. Little Cat/Mao. Cat/Mao-chan.).
(Why are you suddenly adding ;shao(, shao. In this case, sa as chan in Japanese, an expression of endearnt.)?)
This old man is unexpectantly casual, Maomao thought as she nodded.
Would it be okay if you dont look at Jinshi-sama like you would look at a pest? Gaoshun asked.
(It turns out, Im exposed?)
Her facial expressions had been conspicuous recently it seed she couldnt completely hide her impudence. Though she thought her head wasnt going to fly at present, she must have self-restraint. For the Mr Big shot, it should be Maomao whos the insect.
Today as well, I go back, and he reports to that Ive been looked at like a slug, he said.
(Certainly, he is clingy, and I find his clinginess gross.)
Reporting everything is also clingy.
He shudders as he smiles with hazy eyes. That would be what you call self-satisfaction, isnt it?
At the words born from a misunderstanding, he replied extrely seriously. Rather, it was might that brought an insect down to garbage.
, Ill pay attention from now on, she replied.
Indeed, because people without immunity cant help but swoon with one glance. It is troubleso to deal with. His troubles blurred with the deep sigh.
They arrived at the eastern gate as he was talking about his terrible troubles. The castle walls are around the sa height as Maomaos four walls. Outside, there is ;the deep moat and the bridge, which is lowered for the transport of food supplies and materials, and sotis, when maidservants are replaced.
Escaping from the inner palace has the aning of capital punishnt. The gates are always stationed with palace guards. The interior has two eunuchs, while the exterior has two military officials. The gates were double; the guardroom could be entered from both the interior and exterior sides.
Two oxen are bred to raise and lower the drawbridge as human power is inadequate.
Maomao was driven with the urge to go look for things in the expansive pine forest, but with Gaoshun here, there was no way of that coming true, so she sat down in the gazebo in the garden.
It appeared there with the half-moon in the background.
The silhouette of a woman in white dancing in mid-air.
She was clad in a long gown and a shawl, standing on the top of the castle walls, dancing.
Her gown swayed, her shawl undulating like it was alive. Her long black hair shone amid the darkness. The faint outlines of her figure stood out.
An unreal beauty. As if she went astray from paradise, a wondrous spectacle.
Moonlight Fuyou(, Fu Rong. Fuyou is cotton rose-mallow or lotus flower, but it is also the na of a character, ntioned below).
Suddenly, those words passed through her head.
For an instant, Gaoshun looked surprised. Then he muttered to himself. She has good intuition.
The womans na was Fuyou, a middle-ranking consort. The princess to be bestowed for rit next month.
