Seeing that Lin Chujiu returned safely, Xiao Wangfu was very happy, but as for the emperor’s rewards?
Xiao Wangfu’s people didn’t put them in their eyes. The things that the emperor gave were good, but still not comparable to the things in their Wangye’s treasury.
However, these rewards were proof that the emperor has surrendered. They have done a good job, in making the emperor comply.
“Wangfei, please come over here, across the brazier to get rid of bad luck.” Housekeeper Cao personally came to greet Lin Chujiu. As for the imperial army?
All of them were blocked by Xiao Wangfu’s guardsmen. They can’t enter even half a footstep.
The imperial army stood next to the carriage with full of anger… …
Earlier, they were allowed to enter the front yard. But now, even half a step, they can’t go inside. This was simply outrageous, but… …
They can’t guarantee that, if they start a fight against them, they will win.
The imperial army had a cold and sullen face. Lin Chujiu faintly took a glanced at them and chuckled… …In front of the crowd, she would like to see if they will act arrogant and forcefully enter the Xiao Wangfu.

“Is Feicui and the rest came back?” Did they have a hard time?” As soon as Lin Chujiu stepped inside the Xiao Wangfu, she asked.
Her four maidservants were definitely got implicated too. As long as she is their master, whether they are involved or not, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not suffer.
“Wangfei, rest assured. The four of them are back, they have no injuries. When they came back, they immediately bathe with grapefruit leaves, to get rid of bad luck. And now, they are resting.” Housekeeper Cao happily said. But deep inside his heart, he was secretly cursing the palace. Every time, their wangfei enter the palace, he always needs to gather grapefruit leaves, as to push away all the bad luck.
“Since they came back, send a few maidservants to take take care of them. I’m sure they were also shocked about what happened in the palace.” Lin Chujiu said generously. Housekeeper Cao continued leading the way for Lin Chujiu and reported what happened to outside while she was in the palace
After Lin Chujiu entered the palace, the Meng Family sent a message, asking what happened and told them to just say a word if they needed help. The Meng Family will definitely do their best to help.
In addition, Third Prince Xiao Zian also sent someone, to tell them not to worry and that he will take care of Lin Chujiu. Also, the West Prince, Ji Fengyu. He also sent a person around him to tell his concern.
As for Lin Family?
They didn’t send anything, even a fart. As if Lin Chujiu was not a daughter of Lin Family.
“Third Prince Xiao Zian actually paid attention to me? He sent someone to our door, isn’t he scared of the emperor to be displeased with him?” Lin Chujiu continued walking while saying with knitted eyebrows.
Housekeeper Cao’s heart jumped out straight, he had a bad feeling, so he busily said: “Third Prince just said so, but he didn’t do anything afterward. Presumably, he was saving his face, by giving Wangye and Wangfei a face.” He doesn’t want their Wangfei to feel touched.
Housekeeper Cao secretly took a glance to Lin Chujiu’s eyes. Seeing Lin Chujiu has no reaction at all, he said: “Prince Ji Fengyu said that, if we need help, we can go to ask him.”
Lin Chujiu nodded her head, indicating that she understands. She didn’t ask anything about Xiao Zian. But, she knitted her eyebrows when she heard about Ji Fengyu: “Ji Fengyu, what does he want to do in the end? Choosing a team? Isn’t it too early for that?”
Lin Chujiu asked, but didn’t wait for Housekeeper Cao to answer. She walked quickly inside the inner courtyard.
After Xiao Tianyao left, Lin Chujiu lived in his courtyard, that was only a hundred meters away from the front yard. And so, she arrived soon.
Inside the house, Feicui and the others had already prepared hot water and grapefruit leaves. When they saw Lin Chujiu coming in, the four maidservants immediately greeted her. When they saw Lin Chujiu’s body was intact, they both cried and laughed: “Wangfei, you’re back.”
The four maidservants kept looking at Lin Chujiu. They were kept in the palace for one day and night. Although they didn’t suffer much, they were worried about Lin Chujiu. They were afraid of her to have an accident. They got even more worried when they didn’t see her when they came back.
“What are you all crying for? Am I not alright?” Seeing the four maidservants safe, Lin Chujiu sighed with relief.
The emperor and the empress seemed like giving Xiao Tianyao a face, they didn’t torture her. But as for the others, it was hard to guarantee.
“Wangfei, we are just happy. When we saw you return safely, we felt so relieved.” Although they heard that she was safe from Housekeeper Cao a thousand times. They couldn’t have peace of mind until they see her actually safe.
Lin Chujiu faintly smiled and gently said: “You all are tired too, go on and rest. You don’t have anything else do in here.”
“These slaves are not tired.” Feicui and the others shook their heads.
There were not many things to do around Lin Chujiu’s place. There were also other people who’re doing the work in the yard. Her four maidservant doesn’t do anything not related to her. They were considered her private maidservants.
Seeing the look in their face, Lin Chujiu no longer persuades them. Feicui and the others don’t look tired, but she was tired and hungry.
She basically didn’t sleep last night. And she performed operation this morning. While in the afternoon, she cried and cried in the palace. Draining all her spirits.

Lin Chujiu still not used to her maidservants serving her in the bath. She just let them help her removed her outer clothes and hair accessories. And then, she went to the bathroom wearing only her inner clothes.
The bathtub has already been filled with hot water, and the water vapor surrounded the surroundings. Her sight was more or less got affected by the mist.
However, someone’s sight, who was hiding in the dark didn’t even get affected by it. Even if Lin Chujiu was standing in the white mist, he can clearly see the expression on her face.
Lin Chujiu didn’t notice that there was someone else in the bathroom. She casually untied her blouse and trousers, revealing her snowy white skin and bruises on her knees.
In the palace, Lin Chujiu knelt for a long period of time. Her knees began to swell. She gently touched it but it only became more painful.
Someone, who completely has no evil intention remained unmoved. Even when Lin Chujiu started removing her clothes, he remained calm, but he has no intention of averting his eyes.
Just kidding, what’s wrong with him looking at his wife?
However, after seeing the bruises on Lin Chujiu’s knees. That someone’s eyes, who has no trace of evil intention, was replaced by killing intent… …
Lin Chujiu suddenly felt cold, she wrapped her arms around her body and looked around: “Why I suddenly felt cold?”
Aside from the screen frame, there was no other obstruction inside the bathroom. It can be seen in just one glance, it’s impossible to hide in there.
Someone didn’t expect Lin Chujiu would be so alert. He busily hides presence, as to not miss the opportunity to see the beauty bathing.
Lin Chujiu didn’t find any abnormality after looking around the surroundings. She was so tired today, so when she untied her apron, she immediately stepped inside the bathtub… …
When the warm water lingered around her body, Lin Chujiu sighed with relief. She ignored the tingling sensation on her knees.
Unfortunately, when that someone came forward to look again, he saw Lin Chujiu was already inside the bathtub!
What a pity!
That someone took another glance. Inside his heart, he regretted a lot not continuing to watch. In the end, he left reluctantly.
At this time, the sky was already dark, Demon Lord, even with bloody red clothes, wasn’t noticed by anyone at all… …
