When Fu Ronghua woke up, Emperor Xuan Zhao had already left. She stood up with her hands on the bed and said in a hoarse voice, "Ruixue."

Ruixue came in quickly and said, "Master."

Fu Ronghua stretched out his hand and said, "Get up."

She looked at the fine cloth around her neck and frowned slightly, "If Concubine Xi invites you, just refuse because I have a cold."

"My slave understands." Ruixue nodded and combed her long hair.

Fu Ronghua stood up and sat on the bed. Qinghe brought the porridge, "Master, the imperial doctor said that you have injured your neck and I'm afraid it will be painful to swallow. Therefore, he ordered you to eat less coarse food and more fine and waxy things."

Fu Ronghua took the bowl and took a bite. It did hurt when she swallowed it. She shook her head and said, "Just eat some."

Qingliu brought the soup, "Master, please drink some goldfish soup."

Fu Ronghua took a few sips and then waved her hand to withdraw. Now that she had hurt her neck and it was related to King Nanqi, His Majesty must have concealed it, so she naturally couldn't go out for a walk.

Suddenly, Emperor Xuan Zhao's words about teaching her how to play the piano rang out. She lowered her eyes and looked at her hands, "Bring me the chess pieces."

After the chess pieces were placed, Fu Ronghua looked at the new chess pieces in front of him. Upon seeing this, Ruixue said, "It's the one your Majesty sent last time."

Fu Ronghua nodded slightly and started playing chess alone. Without Emperor Xuan Zhao, her chess style gradually became full of murderous spirit. The black and white players fought hard and refused to give in to each other.

At the end of the chess game, Heizi successfully broke out of the siege. Fu Ronghua let go and said, "When did you come?"

Li Xun bowed his head and saluted, "I just came here and saw that the master was playing chess and it was very important, so I didn't bother you."

She threw the chess pieces back into the chess box and said, "Tell me."

"King Nanqi brought someone out of the palace last night."

Fu Ronghua raised the corners of her lips and said, "I knew it." She held her forehead with her hand.

When Li Xun saw this, he said in a low voice, "A person like your Majesty is not worth getting to know, Master."

Fu Ronghua was surprised by his words, "How can we defend this deep palace?" However, it was not convenient for him to know.

The corner of Li Xun's mouth moved, "It's a slave who has overstepped his bounds."

Fu Ronghua smiled, "You are doing it for my own good." Her voice was still a little hoarse.

When Li Xun came out, he saw Zi Gao standing by. Seeing Li Xun coming out, she quickly asked, "Master, is everything okay?"

Li Xun looked at her and said, "Miss Zigao cares about the master very much."

Zi You was stunned for a moment, "Master treats people like us well, so naturally I will care more about you."

Li Xun glanced at the busy palace maids and said, "Miss Zihao, follow me."

Zi You didn't know why, but he followed him anyway. When the two came to a corner, Zi You asked softly, "Eunuch Li, what is this?"

Li Xun glanced at her and said, "Do you want to leave here?"

Zi You paused and looked at Li Xun in surprise. Seeing his serious expression and his handsome face, she was speechless for a moment.

After a long time, her voice was a little harsh, "Of course I think so. None of the maids here want to leave."

Li Xun smiled. He was not as feminine as other eunuchs. Instead, he felt like a young master. When he smiled, he felt a little more energetic. However, it only took a moment for him to return to the cold Eunuch Li.

"If you want, I can speak to the master for you." He opened his mouth and threw out the bait.

Zi You looked at him deeply and said, "What does Eunuch Li want this slave to do?"
