Chapter 890: Cheap, real benefits

With the blood provided by Xiao Tianyao, and Lin Chujiu’s proper treatment, the Emperor’s condition quickly stabilized. But just to be on the safe side, Lin Chujiu observed for an extra hour, and at the same time wrote down the requirements for postoperative care.

After repeatedly confirming that the Emperor had no problem, Lin Chujiu asked someone called Xiao Tianyao and then sent the Emperor back secretly.

“The emperor is fine, and he will wake up in 6 hours. These are the precautions I wrote. You can ask people to follow the above requirements. Imperial Doctor Qin doesn’t need to stare at him.” Lin Chujiu knew Xiao Tianyao let Imperial Doctor Qin take care of the Emperor all the time because Imperial Doctor Qin’s medical skills were good enough. At the same time, an imperial doctor doesn’t have much real power, whether to stay or not will not affect the overall situation.

However, as a doctor herself, Lin Chujiu knows very well how capable a doctor with good medical skills can be. No need to talk to someone else, just talk about Divine Doctor Mo who died not long ago.

If the things he committed back then were not exposed and offended the Meng family, even Xiao Tianyao might not be able to bring him down.

“Mmm.” Xiao Tianyao glanced, then handed it to the person behind him: “Arranged it.”

“Yes, wangye.” The guard took the note and put it away carefully, for fear of dropping it or getting it dirty.

Xiao Tianyao looked at Lin Chujiu’s tired face, and said: “It’s getting late, let’s go back.” After saying that, he held Lin Chujiu’s hand.

Lin Chujiu was stunned for a moment and wanted to pull her hand out, but she couldn’t break free from Xiao Tianyao’s restraint, so she could only say: “My hands are dirty.” After the operation, they were only washed three times with clean water, and they hadn’t been disinfected yet.

“Oh.” Xiao Tianyao responded, expressing his understanding, but he didn’t intend to let go.

Lin Chujiu had no choice but to let Xiao Tianyao do what he wanted.

The two of them did not shy away from the palace, and when Imperial Concubine Zhou heard the news, she couldn’t agree with each other for a long time: “What the hell is Xiao Wangye doing? Why did Lin Chujiu enter Hanfang Palace?”

With Lin Chujiu around, who can say that Prince Xiao had an affair with a woman in the harem?

Having an affair with his wife, no one will believe it.

Not long after Prince Xiao and Lin Chujiu left Hanfang Hall, the people from the Ministry of Punishment carried a dead body out from Hanfang Hall.

“What does this mean? Xiao Wangye is investigating a case in Hanfang Hall. Why didn’t he say it earlier?” Imperial Concubine Zhou felt completely dumbfounded, she didn’t understand what medicine Xiao Tianyao was selling in the gourd at all.

If it was an investigation, was there anything that cannot be seen? Why does he have to be sneaky and cover-up?

Imperial Concubine Zhou couldn’t figure it out, so she could only keep her doubts in her heart, and wait until Xiao Zian returned to the palace at night to ask him.

Xiao Zian deserves to be the one who sees the most clearly. As soon as Imperial Concubine Zhou said something, he made a good guess.

“Perhaps Imperial Uncle Xiao has other plans in Hanfang Hall, and the people from the Ministry of Punishment appeared only to cover up his real purpose. Of course, it is not ruled out that Imperial Uncle Xiao made a secret to lure the Empress.”

It was not something that people can’t see but deliberately covered up. However, it was not completely covered up, and a corner was deliberately exposed, so that it can attract someone’s attention and make a move.

No, not only the Empress but also Imperial Concubine Zhou and the Eldest Prince also lost miserably in this “gamble”.

“Insidious, Xiao Wangye is too insidious.” After listening to Xiao Zian’s analysis, Imperial Concubine Zhou was shocked and angry. At the same time, she couldn’t help secretly rejoicing that she didn’t behave like the Empress and the Eldest Prince after Prince Xiao slapped her in the face.

Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu returned home together. They were supposed to go back to their residences, but Lin Chujiu stopped Xiao Tianyao and asked him to go back with her to wash their hands, and finally take a shower and change clothes.

Xiao Tianyao originally wanted to say that he could take a bath and change clothes when he returned to his yard, but… how could he refuse Lin Chujiu’s kind invitation, and hurt his wife’s face?

Then, the two of them took each other back to Lin Chujiu’s courtyard, which alert the Assistant Housekeeper. So he sent someone to bring over Xiao Tianyao’s clothes, and there was more than one set.

Lin Chujiu looked at the clothes of similar colors and styles in front of him, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and she turned his head to look at Xiao Tianyao: “Wangye, which outfit do you want to wear?”

“You decide.” Xiao Tianyao never cared about clothes.

“Let’s do it this way.” Lin Chujiu didn’t bother to continue asking and pointed at it casually. Xiao Tianyao nodded and said yes, he never cared about such things.

“Wangfei, I don’t know where to put the other clothes. Should I tidy up the room by myself?” The Assistant Housekeeper said with a shy face.

“Where to put it? Where did you get it?” Lin Chujiu pretended to be stupid and refused to accept the words.

Xiao Tianyao almost lived in her yard. If his clothes were brought over, will their residence be divided in the future?

“This, this… the cabinet where wangye put his clothes were eaten by moths, and this slave hasn’t found a suitable box for a while.” The Assistant Housekeeper looked at Lin Chujiu carefully, for fear that Lin Chujiu would be dissatisfied.

Xiao Tianyao didn’t say anything when he heard what the Assistant Housekeeper said but just looked into the distance silently.

The people under him were really stupid!

Can’t he use his brain well and think of a reliable reason?

He didn’t even believe what he said, let alone Lin Chujiu.

Seeing that Lin Chujiu hadn’t spoken, the Assistant Housekeeper hastily added: “If wangfei doesn’t believe me, this slave can bring it here.”

What he said was true, and it was not a temporary reason.

Lin Chujiu looked at the Assistant Housekeeper, then at Xiao Tianyao, after confirming that the two of them hadn’t colluded beforehand, she hesitated for a moment, closed her eyes, and said: “Manao, tidy up a room and put the wangye’s clothes away.” Just let it go. Anyway, she can refuse Xiao Tianyao’s clothes, but she couldn’t refuse Xiao Tianyao’s people either.

Xiao Tianyao’s expression remained unchanged, but his eyes suddenly lit up, and his whole body seemed to come alive.

“Yes, wangfei.” The Assistant Housekeeper let out a long sigh of relief. As if afraid that Lin Chujiu would regret it in a second, he quickly backed out, urging Manao to clean up the room.

All the servants in the house left in an instant, only Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu remained. Xiao Tianyao took two steps and hugged Lin Chujiu from behind. Lin Chujiu froze but did not struggle.

Xiao Tianyao rested his chin on Lin Chujiu’s shoulder, closed his eyes, and said, “Chujiu, today, benwang is very happy.”

Lin Chujiu finally showed signs of softening.

“Don’t be complacent, I’m just giving you face in front of servants.” The corners of Lin Chujiu’s lips twitched slightly, but she spoke harshly.

The life of two people fighting like cockfights was boring. If taking a step back can lead a comfortable life, it was not impossible for her to take a step back, but… …

Just this once!

If Xiao Tianyao didn’t care about her, and betrays her again, even if the two of them can’t get back and are bound together for the rest of their lives, she won’t back down. She would rather prick Xiao Tianyao and herself bloody like a hedgehog than compromise.

“If you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for.” Xiao Tianyao didn’t expose Lin Chujiu’s words, and he knew better than anyone how awkward Lin Chujiu was.

Just let Lin Chujiu take advantage of it, anyway, as long as he has practical benefits… …
