OFFERING CONCUBINES
EPISODE 65 DO NOT BE AFRAID
This dashing man standing in front of them reminded Xiao Yi of the blue chai kumala he had lost by accident, even when he sent Chu Cu to search for him back to the grounds of physician Guo, Chu Cu could not find him.
He felt indebted to return the item to this Master Zhao, lest there be any misunderstanding between the two of them.
But now he was confused as to how to repay that debt.
"Zhao? " His Majesty in the next second became relieved to see who was in front of them, although he could not hide his astonishment with the existence of this person who was quite close to him.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The young commander Zhao Juren stole a glance at the male-clothed girl who was slightly overflowing and was behind His Majesty's body.
The girl still could not hide her dazzling beauty Zhao Juren despite being only wrapped in such strange clothes.
The face that looked at him with surprise was, how much he missed her.
"How do you know, I'm gonna find this waitress?" his Majesty asked, his hand no longer holding on to the head of the sword, his head slapping slightly at Jian's bodyguard and the others as a gesture to lower his sword.
"The queen mother asked me specifically to investigate this, as it relates to internal issues within the harem. The Queen Mother thought His Majesty should not be involved, considering His Majesty is quite busy with some state affairs, but in my opinion His Majesty will not stay silent." The young commander Zhao Juren replied, as if he knew that person in front of him.
For a moment, His Majesty's face changed, something was a little disturbing if it was related to the queen mother.
But then his smile floated, Zhao Juren was a friend from his childhood, who lived in a palace environment in the nurture of the queen mother, even though she was only his nephew.
They had been trained together, to become formidable warriors. And has been jerking his shoulders in several battles on the front lines. His Highness considered him a brother, like his two brothers from different mothers, Yan Chyou and Yan Yaoshan.
Over the past few years, after Zhao Juren was appointed commander-in-chief of all Yanzhi's foreign military and political affairs, succeeding his father General Zhao Honglie, their closeness became a little tenuous. Moreover, it seemed that the queen mother was becoming closer and closer to her nephew.
General Zhao Honglie, who now enjoys his old age, is known as the Zhao nobleman, despite having retired from political affairs but still has no small influence in the palace.
"The Queen Mother is kind enough to take care of this business. I don't think it's appropriate to bother him, with the affairs of his wives."
those words penetrated into the young Commander's heart. How His Majesty emphasized the word wife became strange, when he faced the girl who was very in his tribe.
Zhao Juren pushed Huanran's body towards His Majesty's feet, which were deathly pale like corpses in fear.
The servant knelt down and wept, begging for forgiveness at His Majesty's feet.
"Are you the one who put the poison in concubine Yuan's driver?" asked His Majesty in a sharp voice to the young woman whose forehead had hit the ground several times, trying to ask for forgiveness in her tears.
"Your Majesty, forgive Your Majesty's servant, do not kill the servant. Forgive me..." Huanran folded his trembling hands, with his face looking up in tears.
"Stop crying Huanran, I just want to listen to you, what do you know about the poisoning of concubine driver Yuan." Xiao Yi squatted on the woman whose body was trembling, her high tone of voice suppressing the anger in her heart.
"Madam, I was just told by someone else, I had no choice. Madam, forgive me, madam. Don't punish my mistress..." Huanran cried roaring.
"I will plead for leniency to His Majesty, if you tell the truth" Xiao Yi said, the volume of his voice becoming lower and quieter. This woman in front of him, just a messenger who might do something under duress or threats, was useless she spilled anger on him.
Huanran turned his head for a moment with a look so afraid of the young Commander Zhao Juren who was standing not far behind him, that face was cold and stiff. Directed straight ahead, to Xiao Yi who was standing right in front of Huanran.
"Tell me the truth!" The voice of the young Commander Zhao Juren, firm and heavy, pitched slightly menacingly.
...***...
The morning was coming soon, the dark crept slowly, letting the light slowly take over.
Xiao Yi touched the shoulder of Chu Cu, who was lying curled up in a blanket on dry straw. He hid his face like a millipede trying to protect himself. Without a sound, only his body was so trembling.
"Chu Cu it's me..." Call Xiao Yi, slowly. Hearing Xiao Yi's voice, Chu Cu opened the blanket that covered his body, then jumped involuntarily, hugging the kneeling Xiao Yi holding onto his shoulder.
Her cries broke, in Xiao Yi's arms, the terrified cries she held were so intense all night and the cries of overwhelming relief were unstoppable.
His cold hands hugged Xiao Yi's body tightly, he had already forgotten that he was only a servant.
All he knew now, seeing Xiao Yi was like seeing a goddess. What a fear it was to think of no longer being able to see the face of the woman he had served since he was little.
"No need to fear anymore, I am here, Chu Cu. I'm back for you." whispered Xiao Yi to the comfort of his servant, he remembered correctly the moment His Majesty said those words, his frightened soul became calm like water no longer rippling.
"Chu Cu is not afraid in the law madam....! Chu Cu was afraid that today the mistress would suffer for being tortured, to seek recognition of the wrongs the mistress made..." Xiao Yi pulled his body, staring at his mistress with a pus.
Xiao Yi was wagging his dress, fortunately he had time to exchange the oversized noble One's shirt for his, otherwise everyone would have been suspicious if he had been traveling all night, leave this holding room.
"Just bring Chu Cu madam, if you have to accept punishment. Chu Cu is willing to be whipped and tortured to replace the mistress.
What would Chu Cu say to the great madam, if Chu Cu could not keep the madam..."
"Chu Cu!" Xiao Yi interrupted loudly and raised his servant's chin so confidently.
"Nothing will happen to me or to you, Chu Cu! We'll be out of this bad place soon. Because someone will be responsible for what he did before the Guanli hall today!"
