Quick Transmigration: The Rise of a Favored Concubine

Chapter 190 Heartless and Cold-Hearted Emperor × Little Palace Maid 1

"Quickly, summon the imperial physician!"

"Hurry up, or you'll lose your heads!"

Xiao Dezi shouted anxiously outside, and immediately a quick-footed eunuch rushed out!

With a dark expression, Granny Qin growled at Xiao Dezi, "What exactly happened? Isn't tonight the Empress Dowager's birthday? Why is His Majesty acting like this?"

With red eyes, Xiao Dezi choked up and shouted, "That was wine personally handed over by the Empress Dowager!"

No one thought much of the wine offered by the Empress Dowager.

Unexpectedly, the wine was laced with an aphrodisiac, and the effects kicked in as soon as the emperor returned.

The young eunuch led the imperial physician over quickly.

"Granny Qin, the medicine His Majesty took was too strong. Even if he takes the antidote, it won't completely relieve the symptoms. He still needs to take... otherwise, His Majesty's health will be harmed!"

No sooner had the imperial physician finished speaking than the sound of porcelain shattering echoed through the hall.

The emperor was soaking in a bathtub filled with ice, holding a sharp shard in his hand, which was piercing him and drawing blood.

The pain brought him to a moment of clarity, and he heard the conversation outside.

"Get in here!" His words were filled with boundless rage!

Xiao Dezi cautiously opened the palace door. Seeing the emperor's bloodshot eyes and rapid breathing, he knelt down with a thud, stammering, "Your Majesty... the imperial physician said the antidote wouldn't completely... neutralize its effects, so I still need... this servant... this servant will have someone find..."

Before he could finish speaking, the emperor's murderous gaze swept over him like a blade.

Xiao Dezi shrank back, not daring to say anything more, shut his mouth, and left with trembling legs.

"Well? Has His Majesty agreed? I'll arrange it right away. Consort Shu just entered the palace, otherwise..."

“Granny, don’t you know His Majesty’s personality?” Xiao Dezi interrupted Granny Qin dejectedly. He said anxiously, “His Majesty is probably unwilling, especially at a time like this.”

Granny Qin fell silent. She wondered what had happened tonight. Since His Majesty was unwilling to summon the concubines, then…

"You stay here and help His Majesty drink his medicine. I'll go find someone..." Granny Qin paused for a moment, then said, "If His Majesty is angry, I will take full responsibility!"

Xiao Dezi nodded with red eyes.

"Chu Yue, come out for a moment," Qin Mama called out in a low voice with a serious expression.

Chu Yue hadn't been sleeping very soundly either, but upon hearing the sound, she quickly replied, "Coming right now, Granny."

"Xiaoyue... what's wrong?" Xiaotao and Fangcao looked at her with concern; the three of them were usually very close.

Chu Yue comforted her, "I'll go out and take a look. You guys go to sleep first."

When Qin Mama saw Chu Yue come out, she looked her over carefully. In the dim candlelight, she was wearing a thin nightgown. Her body was slender, and she was bowing her head slightly, but you could tell that she was a little scared.

"Chu Yue, among these maids, Granny Qin has the highest opinion of you. Now that you are to serve His Majesty, you must perform well." Granny Qin had been paying attention to her, and she was diligent in her work, never complaining no matter how hard or tiring it was.

So she usually kept a closer eye on things.

But with her beauty, it was a pity that she was buried in the palace.

Even though His Majesty was under the influence of the drug, he was unwilling to summon his concubines. Qin Mama had served the Emperor since childhood and probably knew his thoughts. His Majesty hated being threatened the most.

But his life was now in danger, and Qin Mama was unwilling to go against His Majesty's wishes, yet she still wanted to save him, so she had no choice but to do this.

If Chu Yue is lucky, that's her good fortune; if she's unlucky, then she, as the nanny, has done her best.

“Granny, I…” Chu Yue was stunned: “His Majesty…”

Qin Mama didn't want to say more to her. His Majesty's condition couldn't be delayed, so she grabbed Chu Yue and quickly walked towards Zichen Palace.

Xiao Dezi had already given the emperor the medicine and was anxiously waiting outside.

Seeing Granny Qin leading a woman over, he hurried over: "Granny..."

Granny Qin glanced at Chu Yue and said, "Serve His Majesty well." Then she opened the palace door and pushed her inside.

"Granny, will this work?" Xiao Dezi asked nervously.

Granny Qin said solemnly, "We can't worry about that now. His Majesty's health is the most important thing. We can't let His Majesty hurt himself."

“Granny, that’s true, but would His Majesty even touch her? Given His Majesty’s temperament, he might just kill her.”

Xiao Dezi was terrified. He had to be extremely careful when serving the emperor.

Granny Qin was extremely panicked. At this moment, she couldn't be sure of anything and could only pray that Chu Yue could get through this.

That girl is good; Granny Qin still wants her to be well.

Chu Yue heard everything clearly from inside, and only then did she realize her predicament; she might die at any moment.

After taking several deep breaths, Chu Yue finally moved toward the emperor with trembling legs.

The heavy breathing inside the hall enveloped her, almost causing her to faint.

She had just approached the bathtub and hadn't even had a chance to speak when she was grabbed by the neck. Her eyes widened as she saw a pair of eyes filled with rage.

"Get out of here!"

The next moment, Chu Yue was thrown to the ground.

She quickly scrambled to her feet and knelt properly: "Your Majesty...this servant...has come to serve Your Majesty. The nanny said...Your Majesty's health cannot be delayed..."

Out of fear, he spoke almost in a trembling voice.

The emperor clenched his fists so hard that his palms were cut, turning the water in the bathtub bright red. He had also taken medicine, but the intense heat in his body still drove him almost mad.

Damn!

They all deserve to die!

The emperor suddenly opened his eyes, stood up from the bathtub, and the splashing water made Chu Yue tremble in fear.

Stepping out of the bathtub, the emperor grabbed the woman from the floor and threw her onto the bed.

The sound of clothes being torn rang out immediately.

The emperor, under the influence of drugs, only wanted to vent his desires, but his body became even more aroused the moment he touched a woman's body.

Chu Yue sobbed incessantly. At first, she could still beg for mercy while crying, but in the end, her voice became hoarse, and she could only let the emperor do as he pleased.

The sounds inside the hall continued for a long time, and Qin Mama and Xiao Dezi went from initially feeling relieved to later becoming worried.

His Majesty is so fierce, and that girl...

Granny Qin frowned deeply, staring at the tightly closed palace gates with a sullen face.

The commotion inside the hall finally ceased when both of their legs were numb from standing, and it was almost dawn.

Granny Qin waved her hand, and immediately palace maids and eunuchs went in to serve her.

Chu Yue was carried out.

Looking at Chu Yue, who was barely clinging to life, Qin Mama's eyes welled up with tears: "Girl, I'm doing this for your own good. It's your blessing to be able to serve His Majesty, so you must seize this opportunity."

Fearing that she might do something rash, Granny Qin offered a gentle word of advice.

Chu Yue's lips twitched twice, but she could barely make a sound: "Okay..."

Granny Qin then gave the order to find a quiet room for Chu Yue to stay in so that she could properly recover from her injuries.

The palace servants, having received the order, immediately summoned the imperial physician to accompany them.

Qin Mama and Xiao Dezi exchanged a glance before entering the hall together.

The emperor had already fallen into a deep sleep.

While both of them breathed a sigh of relief, they couldn't help but worry about facing His Majesty's wrath the next day.
