Xue Cheng couldn't keep up with Su Lingruo's train of thought. She thought that Su Lingruo was really annoyed by the dancers and the Emperor's actions.
However, the next second, she suddenly saw Su Lingruo winking at her quietly, indicating her intention.
"I'm not feeling well. You have to be anxious.”Su Lingruo sighed when she saw her like this. Logically speaking, she should have kept this from Xue Cheng.
After all, Xue Cheng was too gullible. Everything was written on her face.
"I see. Don't worry, Miss. I understand.”
Xue Cheng finally understood what Su Lingruo meant when she saw her reaction. She was pretending to be sick!
"It's good that you understand. Next, don't give yourself away. If someone finds out that I'm pretending to be sick, I'm afraid I'll be in trouble.”
Although she had decided to tell Xue Cheng about this, she still wanted to be safe just in case. Presumably, Xue Cheng knew that if she was exposed, she would be implicated. For her own good, Xue Cheng's acting skills should improve a lot.
"I definitely won't let anyone see it.”Seeing Su Lingruo speak so seriously, Xue Cheng couldn't help but feel that she had gained her trust. A surge of energy rose in her.
So, when Nangong Mingye came looking for him, he was surprised to see Xue Cheng's sad face. She was so bitter that it made one's hair go numb.
"What's with that expression? Could it be that something happened to your young miss?"
Nangong Mingye raised his eyebrows and was stunned. He had heard that Su Ling was full of energy and was extremely fierce when fighting three people alone. Why was her servant girl like this? Could it be that she even hit her servant girl?
"Miss was already drunk yesterday and had a headache. However, because she did not want to disturb the emperor, she refused to call the imperial physician. Moreover, that happened in the morning. Now,"
Xue Cheng wasn't good at lying, but because of what he had said, she spoke in a lower voice, looking a little guilty.
However, when she thought about how her Miss would end up in a very miserable state if she accidentally exposed herself, she suddenly had the urge to cry.
Because of this, the expression on her face seemed even more real.
When the three dancers saw this situation, they felt that it was not good. The emperor was going to be soft-hearted!
No! It wasn't easy to get the Emperor to help find trouble with Su Lingruo. If she was fooled like this, it wouldn't be easy to find trouble again.
"Your Majesty!"
Thinking of this, the dancer wanted to speak but was interrupted by the emperor.
"Alright, shut up. Since Su Zhaoyi isn't feeling well, let's not disturb her and let her rest.”
Nangong Mingye had come here to torment her, but he didn't plan to do anything to Su Lingruo. Now that Su Lingruo was " bedridden ", he naturally couldn't do anything to her.
Since that was the case, it would be better to let Su Lingruo go. Presumably, with these people around him, his actions today would soon cause a commotion in the harem.
The women in the harem would probably not be able to sit still. At that time, Su Ling would suffer again. There was no need to be entangled in doing it herself. Thinking of this, Nangong Mingye turned around and left happily.
With the Emperor gone, there was nothing left in the Cold Palace that was worthy of nostalgia. The others, especially the three dancers, left quickly because of the shadow of the morning incident.
The Cold Palace went from being extremely lively to returning to its previous cold silence.
While Su Lingruo was cursing Nangong Mingye in her heart, she seemed to have learned a new skill.
Pretending to be sick was a good skill!
Sick concubines were not allowed to sleep with the Emperor. In order to prevent the Emperor from being infected, sick concubines were not even allowed to see the Emperor.
This might be a very tragic thing for those ambitious concubines, but for her, it was a very good idea.
Since she didn't want to sleep with him, why didn't she just pretend to be sick? It was convenient and fast, and there were no side effects. It could also make him disappear very reasonably.
At that time, even if she escaped from the palace, others would probably think that she had died in some unknown corner. After all, she had been 'plagued by illness for a long time', right?
Well, the only problem now was that she wanted to pretend to be sick, but would anyone see through her feigning illness?
It was really difficult to understand what traditional Chinese medicine was about. She was not sure if her little trick would work.
Wait, if she went to the state preceptor for help, would he be willing to help her pretend to be sick?
"Phew, he's finally gone, eh? Miss, what are you thinking about?"
After the Emperor left, Xue Cheng let out a sigh of relief. She turned around and saw that her young miss was deep in thought. She was curious.
"It's nothing. Go outside and do your work. Remember, don't let your expression show.”
Su Lingruo avoided answering this question. Although she had the intention to pretend to be sick, this plan was just a random thought. She had no idea what the actual situation was.
Moreover, she wasn't sure if this method would work.
After all, she might not be able to find someone who was willing to help her pretend to be sick. Although the state preceptor looked like a good person, they had only known each other for a few days. It was hard to say whether they could trust him or not.
Thinking of this, Su Lingruo still had a trace of worry on her face when she went to look for the state preceptor in the afternoon.
Xiao Qianchen had been waiting there since early, so he saw the expression on Su Lingruo's face.
Xiao Qianchen frowned in confusion and asked with concern," What's wrong? But what happened? What's with that expression?"
"It's nothing. It's just that today, the emperor and those three dancers who previously came to find trouble with me, you should have heard about it, right?”
Su Lingruo shook her head. She seemed to be giving her own reason, but in fact, she changed the topic.
"I heard about it. Are you upset because of this? Oh, that's true, you are the emperor's concubine after all."
"It's a little related, but it's not a big relationship.”
Su Lingruo wanted to deny it, but considering her identity and the things she wanted to know, she half-veiled it.
"I see."
Xiao Qianchen nodded in understanding. Then, he took out the xun, as if he wanted to skip the topic and teach Su Lingruo how to play it.
"Wait, aren't you curious? Don't you want to know what's going on?”#
