Qing Li's body swayed. The bright yellow figure had already pushed open the door and entered. She looked inside anxiously, afraid that they didn't know. She hurriedly coughed loudly to remind the two people in the inner room.
When Chu Huaijin walked to the door, he did not feel anything. However, when he blocked all the guards outside and was about to push the door open, he heard a suspicious cough.
He had heard too many such blatant hints in the palace.
Back then, when the late emperor tested him on his homework, sometimes the test was too difficult. When he didn't know, his teacher, Lin Mocheng, would cough, frown, pout, and a series of other actions to give him hints.
At this moment, in the Cold Palace, he actually heard it again. His intuition told him that something shameful was happening inside.
He couldn't wait to slowly push it away and kicked it away.
The first thing that caught his eye was Lin Yueying.
Just like the first time he saw her in the Cold Palace, she was half-lying on the wooden bed with an indifferent expression. It was as if she did not see his sudden intrusion.
"Niangniang…the emperor is here, quickly greet the emperor.”Qing Li quickly came to help her.
She was so nervous that she almost fell down.
When she tripped over it, she accidentally kicked the gourd left behind by Bai Ze.
Qing Li looked at her and became more and more afraid. The hand holding Lin Yueying trembled slightly, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
Lin Yueying was as still as a mountain. It was as if she did not hear her reminder at all.
As for the gourd, she had no reaction at all.
Everything in front of her was like an illusion, just like all false memories. What existed was only the past…
"Lin Yueying…How dare you."
Chu Huaijin was not used to her blatant disregard and indifference. His handsome face showed impatience. His sharp eyes narrowed slightly as he raised his hand to support her shoulder, trying to straighten her body so that she could look at him.
However, Lin Yueying's eyes were like a pool of stagnant water. She did not react to his coercion at all.
Chu Huaijin's large hand slid down her shoulder. He only realized now that she was frighteningly thin.
The flesh on her body was tightly stuck to her bones, leaving only skin and bones. The jade-like shoulders of his big hand used to be thick and round, but now, only the protruding bones were gently pressing against his palm.
He reached out to touch her face. Other than the bones on her face, there was only skin…
What kind of life was she living here? He could not help but worry.
"Did the imperial physician come to see you later?" He suddenly put down the evidence and asked Qing Li gently.
"Ah………to answer the emperor's words, other than the one time the emperor ordered me to come, I haven't come again.”Qing Li's eyes flickered as she quickly lowered her head.
" Hmph, those imperial physicians are really impudent. Little Lu Zi…" Chu Huaijin shouted outside. Little Lu Zi really ran in and bowed to him. He then looked at Lin Yueying and bowed. His attitude was actually quite respectful.
However, Lin Yueying did not react to all of this. She was forced to fix her gaze on Chu Huaijin's face. However, her pitch-black eyes were not focused. It was obvious that her eyes were fixed on Chu Huaijin's face, but her heart was not there.
"Arrange for an imperial physician to treat the Empress…Madame Lin's body regularly.”Chu Huaijin ordered coldly.
Xiao Luzi got the order and left.
Chu Huaijin removed his hand from her face and looked at Lin Yueying's hand.
Her fingers were still long and slender, but because she had been using cold water for a long time, some of her fingers were already red and swollen.
Chu Huaijin's heart ached uncontrollably.
He didn't know what was wrong with him. Why did he suddenly feel heartache for the woman in front of him?
"Emperor, why must you be like this? All of this is my own fault. Why must you be so coy? In any case, you are now the supreme emperor. There is no longer a Lin family and Empress Dowager pressing down on your head and pointing fingers at you.”Lin Yueying flung his hand away and suddenly interrupted him with a cold voice.
He might not have known that when he was doing all this, she actually felt like vomiting. Yes, she never knew that she was actually so disgusted by his proximity.
She thought that something was wrong with her, but when his hand touched her cheek and held the back of her hand, it was as if the rat that was fighting on the bedpost had accidentally landed on her face when she was asleep. The furry and sharp feeling made her feel too uncomfortable.
"Lin Yueying, are you lecturing me?”
Chu Huaijin's thick eyebrows were tightly knitted together. He couldn't believe that this woman in front of him would dare to speak to him in such a cold tone one day, and even look at him with such an indifferent gaze.
He slammed the wooden table in the corner in front of the bed with a bang, causing the already unstable wooden table to fall apart.
Once again, it hit the gourd that was rolling by his feet.
" Ah…" Qing Li's attention was once again fixed on the gourd. Seeing that it was getting closer and closer to Chu Huaijin, she became more and more nervous for some reason. She wanted to pick it up with trembling hands, but she saw that Chu Huaijin kicked her away and locked his gaze on the tumbling gourd.
He leaned forward to take a look and saw that it was filled with white pills. He remembered that when he called the imperial physician for Lin Yueying, he only prescribed the decoction and did not prescribe the white pill. He thought of Qing Li's panicked expression and Lin Yueying's cold expression. He did not hesitate to think of that person.
When he first saw him in the Phoenix Perch Palace, he did not remember who he was. However, when he sent people to investigate him, he found out that he had a relationship with Lin Yueying that started even earlier than him...
At this moment, he still remembered the anger in his heart at that time.
He was very angry. Lin Yueying had said that she loved him, liked him, and was willing to give everything to him. However, she had betrayed him a long time ago. Otherwise, she would not have returned to the palace late that sunrise. She would not have asked for her life to be crippled, and this gourd would not have appeared here…
"Who's here?"
He tightened his grip on Lin Yueying's neck.
Even if he had once abandoned her love, he still could not tolerate her betrayal.
"No one…the emperor begs you to spare the niangniang. This cold palace has always only had this servant and niangniang.”
"Hmph, you dare to lie to me?”Lin Yueying didn't even struggle, but Chu Huaijin didn't dare to use too much strength. He held her fragile and slender neck in his hand, afraid that she would probably die if he squeezed it lightly.
Her death…These two words were like a wooden club that struck the bottom of his heart. It hurt.
Suddenly, he didn't want her to die. He let go of her hand and turned around to leave. When his eyes swept across the roof, he was suddenly attracted by an unusually dazzling white.
