All the doctors from the Imperial Hospital were summoned to the Yangxin Hall in less than a quarter and all of them were waiting for the order from Ye Shengxuan to check Lin Dagou.

But none of them had expected that Ye Shengxuan pointed at Helian Chacha who was lying on the bed with soaked clothes, “He just fell into the water. Try your best to save his life.”

Hearing that, one of those doctors felt relieved and said, “I thought he got some really serious disease. Since it’s just drowning, we can prick his ten fingers with a silver needle, then he may wake up.”

Lying in bed, Helian Chacha was so shocked as she was yelling in mind, “Pricking my fingers? What are you, doctor? The stepmother of Snow White or what? Why can’t you just wake me up in a rather gentle way?”

Well, yes, Helian Chacha didn’t fell into a coma because of drowning. Since she had seen that Ye Shengxuan came to save her in the water, she had decided to fake a coma so that her real identity wouldn’t be revealed. But she had never expected that he would become so serious that he called all the doctors from the Imperial Hospital to treat her.

Did it mean that he had already started to doubt about her identity that he was now planning to let the doctors check her body to figure it out?

No way. She would never let those old doctors touch her. It was no big deal if her real identity got exposed, but she could lose her life once Ye Shengxuan was irritated.

She could hear the footsteps of that imperial doctor. One step, two steps, three steps…He was getting closer. He just sat down and was about to prick her!

Feeling the coldness approaching her fingertips, Helian Chacha suddenly opened her eyes and started to cough heavily, “Cough…”

The imperial doctor was startled by her and he forgot to take back the needle, so it went directly into the finger of Helian Chacha.

“Ouch!!!”

The screaming echoed in every corner of Yangxin Hall.

“Your Majesty, he just woke up!” As he was speaking, the doctor pulled the silver needle out.

Helian Chacha’s face suddenly turned very pale because of the pain, yet she dared not to shout out. So she clenched her teeth and pretended to look around, “Where am I…”

She finally rested her eyes on Ye Shengxuan who was not far from her. Looking at Ye Shengxuan and the things around them, her face suddenly turned very serious.

“Your Majesty!” She yelled and rolled down from the bed and crawled to Ye Shengxuan, “It was all my bad that I ruined your bed, Your Majesty! Please forgive me, Your Majesty!”

Those imperial doctors were all fooled by her at the moment that they didn’t really know how to react.

However, Ye Shengxuan had already got used to this kind of behavior of her, so he just waved at those imperial doctors and said, “We don’t need you here anymore, just leave now.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Those imperial doctors left Yangxin Hall with their tools altogether immediately.

Soon, there were only Ye Shengxuan and Helian Chacha left in the Yangxin Hall. Helian Chacha could easily feel that the atmosphere was getting cold gradually.

“Lin Dagou, how have I been treating you?” Finally, the claw of tragic fate had approached her.

Helian Chacha started to massage the legs of Ye Shengxuan and tried to say in a calm voice, “You have been treating me very nicely of course, Your Majesty.”

“Then will you do one thing that you don’t want to for me if I ask you to do it?”

She promised, “As long as you wish, Your Majesty, I will throw my hands on the blade for you!”

Ye Shengxuan was pretty satisfied with her attitude, so he said something really creepy unconsciously, “What if I want you to sleep with me?”

“What?” Helian Chacha felt that there was an earthquake inside of her brain and she started to feel insecure, “Well…Your Majesty, I am not saying no to you, but I think, you already have so many beautiful concubines in the harem…”

“I was just kidding.”

“…”

Her embarrassing smile went frozen all of a sudden and her lips twitched as well. How come such a creepy man could be an emperor?! She would definitely have slapped his face if she was the girl she had used to be!

“I feel tired now. You can leave.” He waved his sleeves at her as he didn’t expect any reply from her.

How could she still stay there when the emperor asked her to leave?

Helian Chacha said “Yes” in a low voice and then left the Yangxin Hall with a bow.

The moment she got out of Yangxin Hall, she was dragged into a corner of the hallway by Bohe who said to her in excitement, “Dagou! How blessed you are! Do you know that you are now kind of famous in the harem?”

She was scared all of a sudden as she was afraid that maybe the entire palace now knew she was carried by Ye Shengxuan back to Yangxin Hall from the imperial garden.

As if she was trying to confirm her thoughts, Bohe continued to say, “His Majesty carried you all the way back to Yangxin Hall from the imperial garden. You know what? None of those concubines in the harem got such a privilege ever before. I assume that Concubine Yun is now super mad in her Ruichen Palace.”

But that didn’t sound like something cheerful to Helian Chacha…

It was worse than fighting against an entire army to be the love enemy of a group of women. After all, you know who you were fighting against during a war, but you would never know which women would set you up secretly, especially those women in the harem!

“Dagou, are you alright?” Seeing that she didn’t reply to her, Bohe waved her hand in front of her face.

“What? I’m good.” She finally woke up and remembered something else all of a sudden, “Oh, Bohe, have you found my earrings back at your place?”

Bohe shook her head, “I almost forgot about it if you don’t ask. That censer was full of nothing but ashes and I didn’t find your earrings in it at all.”

“Really nothing in there?”

“Why would I lie to you?”

If it was not in the censer, where could it be? Was it possible that the bottle had not fallen into the censer but to the ground?

No way. If it had fallen to the ground, it would have made a sound which she would have heard. But if that was not the case, where on earth had the bottle gone?

While Helian Chacha was wondering where the bottle had gone, Ye Shengxuan was playing with a tiny white bottle in his hand. If Helian Chacha was there, she would be scared so much as this was exactly the bottle she had been looking for.

“Your Majesty, I heard that you saved Lin Dagou in the imperial garden?” Looking at Ye Shengxuan who was sitting on the chair leisurely, Shiao Qi couldn’t help asking him the question.

“Yes.”

Shiao Qi frowned as he still couldn’t figure it out, “He is just a spy. Why do you care about him so much? Do you really…”

“Shiao Qi,” Ye Shengxuan interrupted him right away, “You are not supposed to ask things you shouldn’t know.”

Shiao Qi was stunned for a bit and then realized it immediately, “Forgive me. I shouldn’t have asked that.”

Actually, Ye Shengxuan didn’t know it either why he was worried so much about him when he saw Lin Dagou falling into the water. But he knew that there was only one thing left in his mind at that time, that was, he would never let Lin Dagou die!

And even though he had known that Lin Dagou had been faking his coma, he had not expose him. Instead, he quite enjoyed the feeling of carrying him all the way back to Yangxin Hall.

He wasn’t sure what kind of feeling that was.

But there was one thing that he was sure of. He had some kind of feeling for Lin Dagou that he shouldn’t have, which was also a kind of feeling he had never had for anyone else ever.

Ye Shengxuan pressed his temples to ease his headache as he couldn’t figure out why it was a eunuch that he…

Just like Bohe had said to her, within half a day, everyone in the palace had immediately known that Ye Shengxuan had carried Eunuch Lin all the way back to Yangxin Hall.

Concubine Yun smashed a house of her porcelains in outrage while yelling, “I knew it! I should have killed him before!” However, she was still grounded, so she couldn’t go out to teach Helian Chacha a lesson, and that’s why she was now smashing her things to let off the steam.

While she was still smashing things, there came in a palace maid reporting, “Your Highness, Concubine Chen, Concubine Yang, Lady Wang, and Lady Fucha are waiting to see you.”
