Chapter 601: What Do You Want to Spy About?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Seeing the Crown Prince always required a bow, and Liu Shii couldn’t avoid him even if she didn’t want to see him anymore.
She stepped forward, curtsied, but remained silent.
It seed like bowing was all she had to do, like a palace maid eting her master. She hoped Huangfu He wouldn’t make things difficult for her.
But obviously, things didn’t go as she wished.
Huangfu He halted his steps and looked at her. “No need for formalities.”
With many people around and prying eyes, he wouldn’t say anything inappropriate. But he wanted to talk to her more, “Did you just co from Yongle Palace?”
“In response to His Highness, yes,” Liu Shii replied curtly. She hoped her cold deanor would make Huangfu He leave quickly.
Seeing that she wouldn’t even look at him, Huangfu He felt disheartened. “Is it to pay respects to Empress Mother, or is there sothing else?”
“There’s sothing else,” Liu Shii said, her words concise.
She didn’t want to say a single unnecessary word to the Crown Prince, unless absolutely necessary, to avoid any misunderstandings.
Anyway, didn’t the original owner of this body have a bit of a crush on the Crown Prince?
Huangfu He hesitated. He knew she didn’t want to talk to him. Even if he had sothing to say, he had to be cautious in the presence of so many people in the palace. He had no choice but to give up.
He said, “I heard that Physician Shu praised Eldest Miss Liu’s dical skills endlessly. I assu the Second Prince is feeling much better now, thanks to you?”
Liu Shii replied flatly, “It’s just a flesh wound, nothing difficult.”
In her mind, she roared, ‘Then why don’t you leave!’
But Huangfu He seed determined to oppose her. Not only did he not leave, but he also asked, “Did Eldest Miss Liu ever diagnose the Second Prince’s illness, which has persisted since his severe illness many years ago?”
Liu Shii hesitated, not understanding the purpose behind Huangfu He’s question. Could he be probing for sothing?
So, she answered cautiously, “I have diagnosed it.”
“Oh?” Huangfu He beca interested. “Then is there hope for the Second Prince’s illness to be cured?”
Honestly, Qu Yingrong didn’t want this situation to arise, but she hoped Huangfu Ling would get better. Fighting against a fool without using one’s abilities properly would tarnish her own dignity. She would rather Huangfu Ling recover fully and compete on an equal footing, with the loser gracefully bowing out.
But how could he compete with a fool who resorted to underhanded tactics? Even if Huangfu Ling slapped him, he couldn’t retaliate!
What kind of skill was it to bully a fool?
Of course, Liu Shii didn’t understand the thoughts in the Crown Prince’s mind. Her mind raced with conspiracy theories. She thought, ‘Could Huangfu He be trying to probe the situation? If my little silly puppy’s condition is cured, it might pose a threat to the Crown Prince!’
Therefore, she absolutely couldn’t express any hope!
She said, “From what I see now, as ti goes on, the hope for a cure is very slim.”
Even if there was a chance of recovery, she couldn’t say: It can be cured!
Of course, she hadn’t figured out the whole situation yet, so technically, it wasn’t a lie.
Huangfu He, of course, didn’t know how wary she was of him. He sighed and said, “Indeed, over these many years, his condition has never improved, and dical treatnts have been ineffective. It’s truly regrettable!”
Liu Shii naturally had to protect her little fool. She said, “It’s not regrettable. Your servant thinks King Dun Yu is quite fine now. At least he’s lively and cheerful, enjoying his days without worrying about too many things.”
Huangfu He was stunned, pondering her words.. Unable to restrain himself, he asked, “So, you believe that being with him makes you happier than being with ?”
