The King had a rash on his face, and the cream from Gu Chaoyan seed to work well. That was why he felt quite assured while he was waiting for the new cream to be made.
However, the cream suddenly beca ineffective so the King was throwing his temper in Qianqing Palace. He had smashed almost everything, and the servants were all having a hard ti.
That was why he hurried to ask about the cream. Gu Chaoyan had been living in court for a few days so the cream should have been done by this point.
De Fu trusted her for that.
Sword One looked very calm, compared to De Fu.
She said quietly as she looked at De Fu, "Chief De Fu, the cream is not yet done."
"…"
"We ate cold food given by the servants during lunchti, so Elder Miss is lying in bed after eating it. There are no braziers or thick blankets, and Elder Miss must have fallen ill. Sorry, I am fetching so hot water from the kitchen so that she can get better."
"…"
"The cream might not be available for another few days. Our Elder Miss can't even get out of bed." Sword One looked helpless. "The King invited us in, so you can't be this unprepared, right?"
Sick? Unable to get up? No cream?
De Fu's face twisted.
If Gu Chaoyan said that there was no cream, then there would be none. He did not suspect that, because Gu Chaoyan was a very strange person.
And at this mont, he suddenly realized what was going on.
No wonder when he reminded Gu Chaoyan and her maid back at Xinlin Mansion, they did not care about his reminder. They had already prepared enough counter asures for what might happen.
Gu Chaoyan did not even care about the King, so she was countering him!
It seed that the King failed to punish this girl but had to suffer himself.
De Fu could not help but sigh emotionally.
He thought for a while and said to the eunuch behind him. "What are you staring at? Did you hear that? Have hot food prepared for Lady Chaoyan, and so warm water too. If anything happens to her, you are responsible!"
Those eunuchs rushed away quickly and went down to business.
When everything was settled, De Fu showed a flattering smile. "Miss. Sword One, can you ask your Elder Miss to give us so dical cream, otherwise I don't know what to say to the King."
Sword One shrugged and instead of answering him said, "I will ask Elder Miss."
De Fu nodded and waited outside.
Soon Sword One ca out.
She looked at De Fu calmly. "Chief De Fu, Elder Miss says that the cream was the last bottle left, there is no more."
