Chapter 1206: How could he be a blind person?
“Because she looks a bit like me, so you kept her?” Bai Zhi asked directly.
Chu Yan sighed and did not deny it: “Yes.”
The autumn wind was already a little cool, the sun was blocked from the pavilion, but the autumn wind penetrates every corner.
Bai Zhi was silent for a while, then got up and said: “I’ll go to Jin Wangfu to visit my mother, you can eat dinner by yourself.”
Chu Yan hurriedly got up: “I’ll ask Awu to accompany you, and ask him to take you back after dinner.”
She turned her head and saw the beauties who were hiding behind those flowers and trees in the distance. Their eyes were filled with jealousy. Bai Zhi’s lips slightly curved and said slowly: “I have no name or title, and I am not here to give a cure to the Empress Dowager. If I stay here, what will others say about me?”
Chu Yan said anxiously: “You’re here to treat me, am I not sick?”
Bai Zhi turned around, looked up into Chu Yan’s eyes, and asked with a half-smile, “What is your illness?”
Bad premonition rose in Chu Yan’s heart: “Am I not blind? If you don’t stay and take care of me, what will I do if I acted stupid tomorrow?”
Bai Zhi suddenly reached out to pull his clothes, and Chu Yan’s eyes fell on her involuntarily. Bai Zhi stopped, and asked with a smile, “What are you looking at?”
Only then did Chu Yan realize that he had been fooled, and he looked annoyed: “I didn’t see anything, I’m blind, what can I see? I just heard some noises.”
Bai Zhi suddenly stretched out her hand, sweeping in front of his eyes, his eyes blinked naturally when she stretched out her hand.
This was not a natural reaction of a blind person.
Bai Zhi snorted softly: “Your illness, it seems that I don’t need to serve you anymore. Your Majesty, this young lady will leave first.”
She had already noticed something was wrong, but she hadn’t caught him on the spot. However, he drank tea proficiently just now, how could he be a blind person?
It was not easy to pretend to be blind unless you cover your eyes with a black cloth.
He should have covered his eyes, but now it was fine.
When Bai Zhi strode forward, Chu Yan quickly followed behind, trying to explain, but Bai Zhi still refused to talk to him. They met Zhou Awu outside the imperial garden. She asked Zhou Awu to send her to Jin Wangfu and refused to talk to Chu Yan again.
Seeing this, the concubines peeping in the imperial garden almost dropped their jaws in shock. In their eyes, the noble and cruel emperor was so docile in front of Bai Zhi. He was as docile as a cat… … or more likely, a dog?
Bah, bah, bah, this description was too inappropriate.
On the way back to Jin Wangfu, Bai Zhi lifted the small curtain hanging from the carriage window and called Zhou Awu over.
“Zhi’er, what’s the matter?” Zhou Awu was a little guilty, not daring to look into Bai Zhi’s eyes.
Bai Zhi asked: “Do you know that he is pretending to be blind?”
Zhou Awu immediately replied: “I don’t know, how could I know such a thing? You are wronging the emperor, how can he pretend and lie to you?”
Bai Zhi shook her head: “You answered so simply, without even being surprised, but you still say you don’t know?”
Zhou Awu made a bitter face, “Zhi’er, don’t be angry, the emperor just wants to bring you back and keep you by his side so that he can protect you. It’s so dangerous outside.”
Bai Zhi snorted softly: “Don’t think I don’t know, those assassins in Liu County are only targeting him. I was implicated by him, but you’re telling me he wants to protect me?”
Zhou Awu laughed dryly: “That being said, those people already know your whereabouts. It would be dangerous for you to stay there longer. The emperor pretended to be blind this time because he had no choice but to do it. Because he cared too much about you, he was afraid that you wouldn’t come back with him. He didn’t want to use force on you, so he didn’t tell you about getting the antidote.”
