Chapter 145.1: Getting Sched, Great Fortune
After a few more rounds, sounds of movent ca from the outside. The servant girl by the Grand Elder Princess’s side ca in to report, “Master, his Majesty as well as a few of the masters from the palace have arrived.”
With Le Cheng Emperor’s arrival, the ga was naturally set aside imdiately, with everyone all going out to welco him.
Jing Wan got up, and slightly paused montarily, feeling a bit dizzy. And when Ruan Fang Fei walked past her side, she clearly saw Ruan Fang Fei’s exceptionally bright smile. Jing Wan subconsciously touched the cut on the back of her hand, lowering her head for a glance, seemingly no different from ordinary small cuts. During this brief mont, the surface had already ford a scab. Lightly rubbing it, the obvious scab fell apart, and didn’t bleed again.
“Miss.” Seeing the others all going out in succession, yet Jing Wan still motionlessly stood in her original spot, Gong mama went forward. Seeing Jing Wan staring at the cut on her hand, she thought that sothing had happened, and hurriedly pulled her hand over to carefully have a look. Worried, she also took Jing Wan’s pulse, but didn’t notice anything wrong. However, she knew, her miss wasn’t soone to make a ruckus out of nothing. In the past, when tending to the plants and flowers, she would occasionally get cut too, but she would completely pay no mind. “Miss, what’s wrong?”
Jing Wan furrowed her brows, “Mama, let soone go find grandmother, just say I suddenly feel a bit unwell, and to avoid losing one’s manners in front of his Majesty, won’t be going to welco his Majesty.”
It’s not that Jing Wan was overly sensitive. Mainly it was because the circumstances right now were special, and she also clearly sensed Ruan Fang Fei’s ill intentions towards her. At this ti, it was ultimately better to be careful. If by chance sothing really were to happen when welcoming his Majesty, never mind that it might make her sink into trouble, it might even implicate the Luo family. That truly would be ‘the gains not making up the losses’.
Moreover, Jing Wan didn’t feel her dizziness just now was just a misconception. She has always been healthy, neither having anemia nor low blood sugar, and her sleep was also very adequate, so why did she suddenly feel dizzy? She also didn’t encounter anything stimulating, so naturally shouldn’t have this kind of feeling appearing.
Gong mama’s expression grew increasingly solemn, “Miss, then, this servant will support you back.”
Jing Wan appeared to still be perfectly fine, and she also felt her condition was good. If one need to put on an act, then it was better to go all the way. Thus, “Mama, is there a way to make look weaker?”
Gong mama thought for a mont, “Then miss, endure a little.”
Jing Wan just felt a sudden burst of pain appearing in several places on her body. If not soone that has gone through special training, an average person’s pain tolerance actually wasn’t all that strong. Perhaps because Jing Wan’s willpower was slightly stronger than an ordinary person’s, so her ability to endure was also pretty good. But right now, she wasn’t feeling all that great either, nearly screaming out. However, that pain ca quickly and also went quickly, but her body was drained of power, her legs going limp. If not for Gong mama hastily catching her, she would’ve directly fallen onto the ground.
“Miss, how about this servant directly carry you back?”
Jing Wan powerlessly nodded. ——–Mama where did you learn this from, too ruthless.
If Jing Wan could see her complexion now, she probably would also add——‘impressive’. Her healthy rosy cheeks right now didn’t have a drop of blood. In addition to her powerless appearance, no one would suspect her of acting.
Gong mama had Jing Wan lifted. When the servant girls waiting outside saw Jing Wan’s appearance, they really were shocked. “Mama, what happened to miss?”
“I’ll tell you later, Qing Zhu, go look for old madam, miss isn’t feeling too well, don’t say anything excessive.”
“Yes.”
Gong mama carried Jing Wan and led along Bai Shao, returning to the Luo family’s tent.
The tents naturally also had a resting ‘inner room’. Gong mama had Jing Wan placed onto the recliner and added a pillow. “Miss, it might persist for another two hours, and probably won’t be too comfortable, please endure it for the ti being.”
This flimsy feeling all over indeed wasn’t all that great, “I’m fine.” Jing Wan closed her eyes to rest. Because her usual daily routine was consistent, this while she wasn’t able to fall asleep.
Ruan Fang Fei discovered that Jing Wan didn’t follow them out. She slightly narrowed her eyes, feeling puzzled inside. What’s going on, could it be that she discovered sothing wrong? No, shouldn’t be possible. Just a tiny little cut, in this world, was there soone this cautious? Even the esteed Emperor, who would always let soone first test for poison before eating anything, wouldn’t go this far either. If soone really were to go this far, then all don’t need to co in contact with anyone, and don’t need to live out one’s days anymore either. Perhaps it’s the drug’s effect acting up early?
However, even if it was as such, so what? Ruan Fang Fei unconcernedly smiled.
After receiving Qing Zhu’s ssage, Luo Old Madam also began to worry. However, right now, she was unable to leave.
Le Cheng Emperor’s procession was grandiose, with the Imperial Guards guarding the two sides. The one in the lead however wasn’t the Great Commander of the Imperial Guards, but rather the various princes. Regardless whether they’ve been conferred into a wang or not, as long as they were older than ten, they were all present. As for the second carriage, it naturally belonged to the Empress, then afterwards, it was Noble Consort Su, Shu Consort Qin, and the other pampered consorts, and lastly, behind them, should be the princesses.
For this kind of festive day, the imperial concubines of the imperial harem naturally can’t all co out. At this ti, one needed to look at status and position, as well as just how much one was favored. If one lacked both favor and position, then naturally can only continue to stay in the palace to mold.
Everyone all knelt down, shouting ‘long live the Emperor’ three tis, as one person alone stood above them in a high place, enjoying everyone’s submission. It’s also no wonder why that many people all want to sit onto that position. The taste of power really can very easily make one beco addicted.
Le Cheng Emperor called for them to ‘rise’ and didn’t ramble on endlessly either.
When Le Cheng Emperor as well as the imperial consorts and concubines all appropriately settled down, the others finally were able to scatter.
Luo Old Madam let Wang-shi stay behind for the ti being, while she herself hastily returned. How co Wan Wan was unwell all of a sudden?
Out of her concern towards her son, Noble Consort Su wanted to have Jin Qinwang’s soon-to-be wangfei and soon-to-be side consort both called before her to chat. Originally, after Noble Consort Su learned of Ruan Fang Fei’s ‘not fit to be a di wife of the imperial family’ fate, in her heart, she developed a bit of a dissatisfaction towards her. However, Ruan Fang Fei’s status was displayed there, and seeing on the Head Cabinet Minister’s behalf, it wasn’t good for her to overly discriminate against Ruan Fang Fei.
However, only Ruan Fang Fei appeared before her.
After learning of the situation, Noble Consort Su’s heart jumped. She was truly frightened by Li Hong Yuan’s ‘wife cursing fate’. This current one has only been issued the imperial decree for marriage, and still haven’t gone through the formal engagent process. If even misfortune befalls like this, then that was practically asking for her life, and that son of hers might really have to be a bachelor for the rest of his life.
Noble Consort Su couldn’t sit still, hurriedly ordering soone to go call Le Cheng Emperor.
The Grand Elder Princess also couldn’t help frowning, “Wan Wan was still at my place previously, how co started feeling unwell all of a sudden?” She rather didn’t wait for Le Cheng Emperor, directly leaving first, clearly wanting to personally go see Jing Wan.
On Le Cheng Emperor’s side, the discussion with the officials haven’t formally started yet, so he ca rather quickly.
Noble Consort Su had explained Jing Wan’s situation just now, so Le Cheng Emperor’s reaction inside was practically the sa as hers, turning his head to order the imperial physician to go to the Luo family’s tent. Originally, he was thinking, since the previous one had properly married, then the situation should’ve improved. If sothing were to suddenly happen to this one, then Le Cheng Emperor will probably no longer dare to bestow marriages anymore, so as to avoid bring disaster to other families’ young miss.
“Your Majesty, this consort wants to personally go have a look, asking for your Majesty’s permission.” Noble Consort Su stated.
“Go then.”
Noble Consort Su’s hand propped up against an old palace maid’s arm, appearing to still be composed and graceful, just her footsteps unconsciously sped up. Walking halfway, she seemingly thought of sothing, “Go let soone have Yuan’er called over too.”
Ruan Fang Fei, who was following behind her, subconsciously clenched her fist, but instantly released her grip. Wouldn’t it be better for more people to be present? Letting them all have a good look, now that would be even more interesting, no?
Ruan Fang Fei was inwardly calculating the ti. The imperial tent wasn’t far from the Luo family’s tent. Jin Qinwang and the imperial physician’s footsteps were both faster than theirs, so it won’t take much ti. Even if Jin Qinwang arrives a bit later, it wasn’t a problem either.
At the mont, Jing Wan wasn’t just feeling weak all over because of Gong mama’s move, her head was also incredibly dizzy. If she still didn’t realize that she has indeed fallen for soone’s trap, then she would’ve lived for nothing. Gong mama’s complexion was also terribly dark and heavy.
Luo Old Madam was very much worrying next to her, and the Grand Elder Princess more or less was also the sa.
However, the Luo family’s manor doctor already checked Jing Wan’s pulse, examining both hands, yet still couldn’t find the cause, “Old madam, this little one is incompetent, unable to diagnose third miss’s cause of illness.”
“Usele……..” The Grand Elder Princess, in a mont of anger, opened her mouth, wanting to curse, but in the end, realized this was soone serving the Luo family. Beating the dog, one still needed to look at the master’s face. “Invite the imperial physician.”
While being clearly aware that she was sched against, inviting the imperial physician really wasn’t a wise decision. But it was obvious, this situation didn’t allow her to refuse.
“Noble Consort Su has arrived—–”
As a result, in the room, aside from Jing Wan who couldn’t get up, as well as the Grand Elder Princess, the rest all successively got up to greet Noble Consort Su.
T/N: It’s like 4am right now for , so I’ll post the next part when I wake up in the morning.
