Because of these few short sentences, Qing Feng’s expression changed a lot. She starred back at Ru Yi and shouted, “For real?”
Ru Yi immediately knelt down and spoke quickly, “This servant dare not deceive your Ladys.h.i.+p.” Ru Yi was able to hear her Ladys.h.i.+p clenching her fists as her bones made cracking sounds. Ru Yi kept her head down and did not dare to move a muscle.
After a while, Ru Yi was then able to hear Qing Feng calmly say, “Withdraw.” Ru Yi did dare to stay longer and quickly backed out.
The constantly tightly fisted hands on her chest showed that internally Qing Feng was not as calm as her voice had portrayed to be.
Yan Hong Tian!
Yan Hong Tian, you are really good!

Gu Yun and Zhuo Qing went to see Qing Feng once every three days and she remained the same, staring at the cradle for the entire day and at times she would say a few sentences to them. Gu Yun did not agitate her again but still privately questioned the eunuchs and mamas who were still in Qing Feng Hall. The Imperial Palace was indeed a scary place. It made people cautious and careful of their words. No matter what Gu Yun asked, the answer was almost always that they did not know anything.
This day was another day that Gu Yun and Zhuo Qing would enter the Palace to see Qing Feng and Qing Feng’s spirits seemed good and wanted to talk to them when she saw them entering. But she saw that there was a male following them. That person seemed to be in his thirties, of medium build and looked very ordinary but he was filled with an air of arrogance which made one hard to ignore.
Qing Feng asked with precaution, “Who is her?”
Zhuo Qing and Qing Feng was closer to one another thus Gu Yun indicated her to speak. Zhuo Qing walked to Qing Feng’s side and carefully replied, “He is a physician.”
Qing Feng’s face immediately change and she replied in a cold voice, “I am fine and do not need any physician. Let him leave.”
Zhuo Qing glanced with Gu Yun with a headache and just as two of them were thinking of how to convince Qing Feng, Yue Sheng coldly scoffed, “Each one more stubborn than the other. Getting me to leave is easy but once I leave that face of yours would not have any more hope.”
What does that meant? Qing Feng looked questioning at Zhuo Qing and she softly explained, “We got him here as we wanted to help to heal your face. Even though there is nothing wrong having the scar on the face, but…”
They thought that Qing Feng would definitely flip out but who knew that she swept her anger away and asked seriously, “He can really heal my face?”
Zhuo Qing immediately nodded, “En.”
“Alright. Then treat.”
Qing Feng’s frankness made Zhuo Qing and Gu Yun confused but the flash of distraction in Qing Feng’s eyes did not escape Yue Sheng’s eyes. Interesting! Yue Shen laughed, “The injury on your face is more serious than theirs and you will need to suffer in order for it to be cured.” This woman was actually more ruthless than her sisters, the two deep scars wiped off seventh or eighth tenth of her stunning good looks. To heal her face now was not because of just regaining a beautiful face only.
Qing Feng replied expressionless, “As long as it can be healed, I can bear whatever suffering.”
“Good!” He like this kind of female who would be unscrupulous to achieve their goals. Not only would he heal her face, she would also be one-third more glamorous than how she looked previously!
“Bear what sort of suffering?” A domineering male voice with some chill spoke from outside the courtyard.
“Long live the Emperor.” Yan Hong Tian just stepped into Qing Feng Hall and all the accompanying eunuchs and palace maids were all kneeling on the floor. Qing Feng got up to bow and Gu Yun and Zhuo Qing also uncomfortably followed but Yue Shen continue to stand at the side and seemingly had no intention to greet.
Raising her head slightly, Gu Yun saw that overbearing man and the corner of her lips raised. Bringing in Yue Sheng into the Palace naturally required Yan Hong Tian’s agreement thus Su Ling had went in the morning to speak to him, thus it was nothing strange for Yan Hong Tian to come over and take a look but for to not even change out of the bright yellow court robes, he seemed to be slightly too anxious.
“You can treat her face?” The dark black eyes swept over that ordinary face. This was not a light nor difficult sentence but it had gave an oppressive blow to others.
Yan Hong Tian had always been temperamental which made Zhuo Qing worries rose. With a normal expression on, Yue Sheng replied coldly, “As long as I want to treat, don’t even mention about such a small injury like this, even if the entire face is rotten, I can change a new one for her. But during the three months that I am treating her face, other than me and her close servants, she cannot see anyone. If this cannot be done then there is no need to heal this face.”
His eyes darken as Yan Hong Tian spoke lowly, “Including Zhen?”
“Of course.”
Qing Feng’s cold sweat also came out. Accordingly to Yan Hong Tian’s character, he would not let people who go against him live easily and she had experienced it many times since she entered the Palace. Sure enough, Yan Hong Tian laughed coldly, “Alright, Zhen promise you, from today onwards, there would be no one else stepping into Qing Feng Hall. If her face is not healed after three months, Zhen want your life.” After the sentence was completed, Yan Hong Tian left with a huff.
Everyone thought that Yan Hong Tian was annoyed by Yue Shen but Gu Yun found out that before Yan Hong Tian turned to leave, he looked at Qing Feng but Qing Feng quickly looked away and did not meet his eyes. Gu Yun guessed that the black face that Yan Hong Tian had on when he leave was because of Qing Feng.
Yue Sheng watched Yan Hong Tian’s brutal cold back and sneered, “Such strong ferocious energy, no wonder the number of heirs are thin.”
After listening to those words, Qing Feng s.h.i.+vered and her face was much more paler than before.
“Both of you can also leave.” Waving towards Gu Yun and Zhuo Qing, Yue Sheng chased them out of Qing Feng Hall.
