Your Majesty, Eunuch Lin Is Pregnant

73. The Poisonous Chicken Leg

 

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

 

“What? Poisonous?”

Helian Chacha threw away the chicken leg immediately.

Helian Chacha’s face turned super pale as she looked at Manyue in shock.

“Poisonous? That’s impossible. I have already tested it with the silver needle. And it was me who served you this. How could it be poisonous?”

Manyue was shocked as well, so she went up quickly and grabbed the wrist of Helian Chacha so that she could take her pulse.

She then checked the eyelids of Helian Chacha, and finally felt relieved when everything looked just alright.

“Princess, you’re not poisoned.”

Manyue was very certain because she really admired this person in front of her from the bottom of her heart.

“Then what did you just say?”

Helian Chacha was yelling in her heart. That chicken leg she had just eaten was like stuck in her throat and she was suffering a lot from the pain.

Manyue was getting a bit sweaty on her forehead, and she was so nervous that she didn’t know where to put her hands.

“Princess, I…”

Manyue was about to cry. Should she tell Helian Chacha that she couldn’t bear the way Helian Chacha behaved just now?

That would be just as deadly as knocking the door of the Hell.

“Tell me the truth. Or, I’ll…”

Helian Chacha put on a tiny grin on her face and said by the ear of Manyue. Her eyes were filled with banter behind Manyue.

Did it mean that Ye Shengxuan felt exactly the same as she did at this moment whenever he threatened her when she was in the imperial palace?

Manyue trembled and looked at Helian Chacha nervously,

“I just think that you are the princess of our kingdom, and your behavior shall follow the royal rules. If you move to the imperial palace of Xuanyuan and still behave like that, you will be despised by Concubine Yun.”

After saying that, Manyu didn’t dare to look at Helian Chacha at all. She had expected the anger from Helian Chacha, but now she found that Helian Chacha was just looking at her in shock.

“Concubine Yun?”

Helian Chacha suddenly thought of that big face in her mind. What a woman! She was the concubine in Ye Shengxuan’s harem while also taking a position in Xuanyuan Kingdom.

“Princess, I’m not referring to the Concubine Yun in the imperial palace of Ling Kingdom.”

Manyue looked super embarrassed, but she thought Helian Chacha was quite cute right now.

“Then who is she?”

Waving her hand carelessly, Helian Chacha knew exactly that they would find her behavior abnormal.

As a person coming from the 21st century, if those people here could get used to her behavior, she would doubt if her mental status was fine when she was living in the 21st century.

“After the late empress died, Concubine Yun was entitled as the leader of the harem, supported by His Majesty. But right now in the harem, all of the women are just concubines. And every year on the death anniversary of the late empress, His Majesty will eat vegetarian food with all the people in the harem. So I guess His Majesty is still missing the late empress.”

Manyue said that because she didn’t want Helian Chacha to feel something bad about Concubine Yun.

Right now the entire royal family of Xuanyuan Kingdom was ruled by Concubine Yun, so if Helian Chacha didn’t like her, she would definitely not enjoy a happy life in the future.

For the first time, a sneer crept on the face of Helian Chacha.

Caring?

According to dramas of ancient times, Helian Chacha could find nothing of his caring in this stuff.

“Since when did Concubine Yun start to serve Father?”

“Don’t you remember, Princess? Concubine Yun used to be the closest palace maid of the late empress, and she even took care of you before when you were little. The late empress was pregnant at that time, and the harem was quite empty, so the late empress promoted Concubine Yun as a Lady from a palace maid.”

“And that was the reason why His Majesty gave the power to Concubine Yun and promoted her after the late empress had passed away. You agreed with that back then, Princess.”

Manyue was paying close attention to the changes of Helian Chacha’s face while telling the story. Seeing that Helian Chacha didn’t have much doubts, she finally got relieved.

Seven days later, inside the imperial city of Xuanyuan.

Helian Chacha sprawled out on her bed and looked at the green tiles above with her dizzy eyes.

A cold face suddenly appeared in Helian Chacha’s mind.

Unconsciously, Helian Chacha felt a little bit warm in her heart.

Covering her face with the quilt shyly, she had to admit that she was missing that ice-cold man, and the feeling grew stronger than ever.

“Good day, Your Majesty!”

Outside the room, there came the sound of Manyue greeting the emperor of Xuanyuan. Helian Chacha turned over and sat up from the bed immediately.

A middle-age-looking man walked in. And as soon as he saw Helian Chacha, he couldn’t move his eyes away from her.

“Good day, Your Majesty!”

Helian Chacha really had no idea how she should address this man, and she was also afraid that there might be some differences in courtesy in these kingdoms, so she chose to copy Manyue’s move.

“You do that when you are a servant. In the future, you don’t need to greet me when we meet.”

Feeling the warmth from the hand of the emperor of Xuanyuan, Helian Chacha was stunned, and she didn’t speak a word.

“All these years, I owe you a lot. I’m so sorry about you and your Mother.”

He had expected that Helian Chacha would complain about the past, and in that case, he had thought he could give her some kind of compensation to mend it up.

But it was the most difficult case when Helian Chacha didn’t ask or complain anything at all.

Seeing the two, Manyue walked out of the room immediately with the others.

The courtyard was already full of rewards from the emperor of Xuanyuan. Manyue glimpsed at them and felt a bit surprised.

If these things in front of her were granted to a servant, then it would be enough for him or her to live centuries.

However, as for Helian Chacha, Manyue thought she was already an adult, and she was a princess, so these rewards from the emperor of Xuanyuan were not qualified enough for her identity.

“Where shall I put these things?”

A young eunuch from Qianqing Palace interrupted Manyue all of a sudden, and that made Manyue feel even worse about this place.

The young eunuch looked a bit embarrassed, so he tried to fake a smile. Manyue looked at the direction of Helian Chacha worriedly for a second and then left with the young eunuch.

Inside the room, the emperor of Xuanyuan had pretty much explained everything to Helian Chacha.

The emperor of Xuanyuan was all blushed, and his eyes turned red as well. But Helian Chacha looked very calm, so the scene looked as if Helian Chacha had just bullied the emperor of Xuanyuan.

“I owe you!”

The emperor of Xuanyuan bowed his head once again. And this time, Helian Chacha seemed to have finally realized that, and she started to act nicer to him.

“From now on, you are Princess Linglong of Xuanyuan, and you can go anywhere in this imperial palace. If there is anyone who dares to bully you, I’ll make him regret.”

The emperor of Xuanyuan looked really cold. Helian Chacha felt a bit scared, but she still nodded dumbly.

Since he really didn’t know what to say to Helian Chacha, the emperor of Xuanyuan looked at her face again and then stood up,

“You have had a long journey, have a rest first. In 3 days, Concubine Yun will hold a banquet for you in the imperial garden, and I will announce your title to everyone on that day. I will give you whatever you want from now on!”

After saying that, the emperor of Xuanyuan left the room immediately without showing more of his love.
