Unknown hall.

Haitang and Shaoyao ran out immediately when they heard the commotion outside, only to see Ji Xiao who was just about to walk out, but now she was being carried back.

He seemed to have passed out, already unconscious, his brows were slightly wrinkled, and his face and lips were frighteningly white.

"What's the matter? When I went out, I was obviously fine..." Haitang pursed her lips and frowned slightly.

Shao Yao asked: "Have you ever called an imperial physician?"

The two young eunuchs who carried Ji Xiao into the room looked at each other, and then one of them said softly: "You two sisters, don't ask, this little master Wei has offended His Majesty, if it wasn't for the emperor's order, which imperial physician would dare to come here?" ah?"

Haitang glanced at Ji Xiao again, and anxiously stretched out her hand to grab the eunuch who was about to leave: "But we can't just sit and watch the master like this... What can you do, father-in-law, to save the master?"

"It's not that the miscellaneous family doesn't want to help, it's just the emperor's thoughts. The miscellaneous family may be more likely to be soft than hard. Sister, look at that concubine Qi. Although she has been domineering and domineering all these years, as long as she meets His Majesty, That is all obedience. If you look at it according to miscellaneous people, it must be that little master Wei is submissive and admits his mistake, maybe this holy favor will come back."

Haitang: "Thank you, Eunuch, for your guidance."

And why didn't she know that Ji Xiao had to bow her head first, but who was their little master?His daily temperament depends entirely on his mood. He looks down on competing for favor, and he is unwilling to be inferior to others. He has a stubborn temper, so he is not willing to bow to the emperor first.

Not to mention admitting his mistake, Haitang felt that even if Lu Chao bowed his head first, Ji Xiao might not be willing to forgive him.

After the two eunuchs left, Shao Yao sighed slightly: "There is still some wound medicine that His Majesty gave you, why don't you use it for the young master first?"

Haitang nodded: "That's the only way to go."

After dark.

A few rain clouds floated outside, there was a few thunderclaps, and soon there was a torrential rain.

Ji Xiao was woken up by the sudden rain and thunder, he half-closed his eyes, and caught a glimpse of the sad-faced Begonia beside the bed.

Haitang saw that he had woken up, and her complexion became better: "Master, are you awake? Are you hungry? This servant will bring you porridge right away."

Ji Xiao hoarsely said: "No need, I can't eat."

He paused, then asked, "What time is it?"

"It's time to pass Haishi..."

Before Haitang finished speaking, the door was pushed open without any seriousness.

I saw two imperial guards carrying a drenched eunuch violently into the room, and threw it beside Ji Xiao's bed.

Ji Xiao turned her head to look, and found that this drowned man was Chu Yu, the redness and swelling on his cheeks had not disappeared, and some parts had turned from red to blue, making it even more unsightly.

"This person is in the middle of the night, and the cat is sneaking around outside the palace, I think I'm an assassin." Lu Chao walked slowly to Jixiao's bed, and sat down without a doubt, "I didn't expect it to be your former colleague."

After finishing speaking, he lowered his eyes and glanced at Chu Yu: "It's late at night, why don't you stay in the prison yard, what are you doing here?"

Chu Yu bowed her head and said: "Sixteen... the little master has suffered for this slave, and this slave really couldn't let it go, so he wanted to come here to have a look at him... Unintentionally disturbing the emperor, he really deserves death."

Lu Chao's eyes moved lightly, and landed on Ji Xiao's face on the bed: "You know that you sneak around outside the widow's bedroom for no reason, what crime should you be punished for?"

"Your Majesty," Ji Xiao said with a hoarse voice, "You have already been punished, are you still angry?"

"That's natural, you are so stubborn, you just fainted from the pain and refused to ask for forgiveness, how can you relieve your anger?" Lu Chao smiled half a smile, "I was worried, but Chu Yu came here, if I don't tease you, how can I Isn't it a waste?"

Ji Xiao glanced at him, but there was no emotion in his eyes: "I beg Your Majesty to let him go."

Lu Chao: "Wang Jixiao, is this how you ask for help?"

"That day, the servant offended his superiors and uttered wild words. It was disrespectful. These days, the servant has already known his mistake, and he will never dare to offend His Majesty again in the future. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me."

Lu Chao smiled: "You know your mistake?"

"It's the slave's mistake," he said.

"That's good," Lu Chao said with a playful smile, "It's good to know you're wrong, if you don't know how to praise, I really don't know what kind of punishment you will receive."

Lu Chao sat for a while, then got up and said, "It's getting late, so I won't disturb your rest."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left, but the old eunuch stayed behind, holding a plate of wound medicine, and placed it respectfully on the bedside of Ji Xiao: "These are rewards from His Majesty, they are all good wound medicine, my little one." Master, remember to use it."

Ji Xiao didn't look at him, nor did he thank him.

But Chu Yu, who was always kneeling on the ground, tightly squeezed the small porcelain bottle in his sleeve, and hid it inside again.

The old eunuch smiled, and said again: "The pear blossoms are blooming so well outside, Miss Haitang, remember to open the window tomorrow and let the little master see the pear blossoms more. If you are in a good mood, the injuries on your body must be gone. It will be better soon."

Haitang responded and said yes.

After hearing this, Ji Xiao finally turned her head to look at him: "Flowers don't have a hundred days of redness, but I wonder how the pear blossoms are still blooming so well now that it's autumn."

"The flowers favored by His Majesty must always bloom and remain invincible." The old eunuch bowed to him, changed the subject, but asked, "May I ask what flowers the young master likes? Tomorrow, the old slave can order the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send them to you." .”

Ji Xiao: "Don't bother. A mere slave is not as good as your majesty. You can't enjoy flowers, so you don't have to waste money."

The painted smile on the old eunuch's face remained unchanged: "Since that's the case, the old slave will not force it. The young master is resting well, so the old slave will leave now."

Shao Yao sent him out: "Eunuch, go slowly."

At this time, Ji Xiaocai looked at Chu Yu again, and said in a gentle voice, "Get up."

Then he told Haitang: "Haitang, go get him some clean clothes, then fetch a basin of cold water, and get a facekerchief by the way."

Before Chu Yuren got up, tears began to fall: "Sixteen, I am sorry for you. I have never seen that hairpin before, who knows when it got into my clothes."

"You can't be blamed for this matter," Ji Xiao comforted him, "Concubine Qi intends to take revenge, and Lu Chao intends to punish me, so there's no way to avoid it."

Hearing what he said, Chu Yu cried even worse: "Now that you are like this, I can't help you much, I..."

"Don't cry," Ji Xiao didn't like other people crying, so he was a little upset, "Of course it wasn't your fault about the jade hairpin, but you came here tonight and jumped into the pit with a lantern. What is the crime in the bedroom?"

Chu Yu was stunned: "Will he die? I just stood outside the hall and saw that the guards were heavily guarded, so I didn't dare to go in. Who would have thought that I would be discovered immediately—I thought I would be beaten at most..."

Ji Xiao looked at his tear-stained face, and remembered that he was just an ignorant young man with a cross at the beginning, even his brain was not active, and his thoughts were shallower than others, so he put away the sarcasm that came to his lips, but was gentle Said: "Forget it, it's just a matter of bowing your head."

With quick hands and feet, Haitang quickly found what Ji Xiao wanted, then put down her clothes and habitually stepped forward to unbutton Chu Yu.

"..." Chu Yu's bluish-yellow face immediately turned red again, "I'll just do it myself, don't bother the girl."

In just one sentence, his tongue tied up.

Seeing his embarrassing appearance, Ji Xiao couldn't help curling the corners of his mouth.

Seeing that Ji Xiao's mood improved, and seeing this little eunuch's shyness again, Haitang suddenly became playful, and decided to help the little eunuch change his clothes: "Why are you so coy? I used to take care of His Majesty's dressing , are you afraid that I will take advantage of you?"

"That's not what I meant..." Chu Yu said at a loss, "My sister used to serve noble people, and I'm just a slave, how dare I bother my sister?"

The more cautious he was, the bolder Haitang became. While tugging, something suddenly fell from Chu Yu's cuff, and rolled to the ground.

He hurriedly bent down and picked up the thing, holding it in his hands.

Ji Xiao frowned slightly: "What is that?"

"No...it's nothing." Chu Yu hurriedly carried the small porcelain bottle behind her back.

Haitang stretched out her hand sensitively: "Take it out."

Chu Yu: "It's really nothing..."

Seeing his expression, Ji Xiao became even more curious: "Since it's nothing, it's okay for others to see it."

The three of them stalemate for a while, before Chu Yu slowly handed the small porcelain vase to Haitang, lowered his head, scratched his head embarrassedly and said: "I heard from them that Sixteen has offended His Majesty this time, so it must be because I can't invite you." It’s an imperial doctor, so I went to the imperial hospital to ask for medicine—it’s just an ordinary wound medicine, of course it’s not as good as what His Majesty gave, so I didn’t take it out.”

"How did you ask?" Ji Xiao asked.

Chu Yu, a nameless little eunuch, was implicated by Ji Xiao and indirectly provoked the emperor and concubine Qi, so he knew that this small bottle of wound medicine must have been hard-won.

But he just smiled naively, with a stiff and embarrassed smile: "I have a fellow villager I know in the imperial hospital, and it took half a month's salary in exchange for it."

Ji Xiao didn't intend to expose him, but said rather solemnly: "Thank you."

"You don't have to tell me this, I didn't help much." Chu Yu said embarrassedly.

After all, Ji Xiao was seriously injured, and after chatting with Chu Yu for a while, he fell into a coma again.Chu Yu changed into clean clothes, covered her face with a cold sweat towel, and refused to leave without saying anything.

Haitang had no choice but to let him stay here overnight.
