Story of Yanxi Palace: Fu Ying's banner will never fall

Chapter 120 Late Night Visit

After being beaten with thirty sticks, Wei Yingluo fainted on the spot.

Before she lost consciousness, she was still muttering to Mingyu to leave a few people to protect Concubine Yu.

Everyone hurriedly took her back to Changchun Palace and invited Ye Tianshi to treat her.

When Ye Tianshi saw the densely packed, bloody wounds on Wei Yingluo's back, he couldn't help but frown and look reluctant.

He couldn't help but ask, "Yingluo, why would you risk your life for a nobleman you have no friendship with?"

"Master, no, I'm not doing this for Concubine Yu, I'm just doing this for an old friend. I hope he can be safe and sound in this life." A determined look appeared on Wei Yingluo's face.

Of course, Wei Yingluo was referring to Yongqi, that lovely child who was a little mature beyond his years and as nagging as Tang Monk, but always very sensible.

Ye Tianshi sighed: "Yingluo, how can I feel at ease with you like this!" He looked at Wei Yingluo, his eyes full of worry.

Ye Tianshi shook his head helplessly. He knew that his apprentice was stubborn and would not change her mind easily once she decided to do something. He could only support her silently.

Wei Yingluo smiled and thought to herself, "Master, thank you for your care and concern for me all the time. I know you are worried about me, but this time I really want to help Concubine Yu, which can be regarded as fulfilling a wish. Besides, I can handle this matter. You don't have to worry."

Ye Tianshi sighed deeply after hearing what Wei Yingluo said. He knew that he couldn't persuade her, so he had to say, "You, for this person and that person, can you think more about yourself?"

Wei Yingluo pouted and said coquettishly, "I know. I will. Don't worry, Master."

Ye Tianshi looked at Wei Yingluo, his heart filled with helplessness.

"Okay, since you have made up your mind, I won't say anything more. But you must pay attention to safety. If you encounter danger or need help, tell me at any time." Ye Tianshi instructed.

Wei Yingluo nodded gratefully, she knew that her master would always be by her side to support her.

After Ye Tianshi left, Wei Yingluo lay on the bed, thinking about how to protect Concubine Yu's baby next.

She knew that she might face many difficulties and dangers from now on, but she was not afraid. She believed that as long as she persisted, she would be able to help Concubine Yu...

She closed her eyes, relaxed her body, and prepared to have a good rest.

Afterwards, Wei Yingluo fell into a deep sleep in the room, and Fu Heng hurried over after receiving the news.

However, Wei Yingluo slept uneasily in bed because the pain from the wound was unbearable. She slowly turned over and lay on her side, trying to relieve the pain.

Those places that her hands could not reach and had not yet been medicated felt itchy and painful. Wei Yingluo frowned and couldn't help reaching out to scratch, but she accidentally touched the wound, and she gasped in pain.

Suddenly, she seemed to hear footsteps. She opened her eyes and looked towards the door in confusion. Who could be coming so late? Could it be Mingyu and Qingyun again? Or the Queen?

As she was thinking, the door was gently pushed open and a tall figure walked in.

Wei Yingluo looked at the person who came in surprise, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.

It turned out that it was Fu Heng who came. When he learned that Wei Yingluo was injured, he immediately put down the things at hand and rushed to visit her.

Seeing Wei Yingluo’s pale face and painful appearance, he felt heartbroken.

Fu Heng walked to the bedside and asked softly, "Yingluo, are you okay? Does your wound hurt a lot?" His voice was full of concern and tenderness, which made Wei Yingluo feel extremely relieved.

Wei Yingluo shook her head and forced a smile: "I'm fine, just a little painful."

Fu Heng frowned tightly. He knew in his heart that Wei Yingluo said this simply because she didn't want him to worry.

He sat carefully beside the bed, gently holding Wei Yingluo's hand, his eyes revealing endless heartache and pity.

"Yingluo, will you marry me?" Fu Heng's voice was a little low, with a hint of earnestness and pleading, "You have a very hard time in this deep palace. I can't bear to see you suffer."

Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes, but he tried hard not to let them fall.

Wei Yingluo blinked, a trace of struggle flashing in her eyes. She knew very well that if she told Fu Heng about her rebirth, he might not believe it, and it might only increase his worries.

So, after careful consideration, she said: "Fu Heng, the Queen has been very kind to me, and I want to repay her and protect her."

Fu Heng sighed deeply, feeling helpless.

"But Yingluo, the Queen is now the head of the harem, deeply loved by the Emperor, and has a legitimate son. Everyone in Changchun Palace is loyal to her. Maybe she doesn't need your protection."

He knew that if Wei Yingluo fought alone in the palace and faced those people of noble status, she would only end up with scars and bruises all over her body.

In his opinion, between Empress Fucha and Wei Yingluo, Wei Yingluo obviously needs more protection.

When Wei Yingluo heard this, she was very excited. She frowned and stared at Fu Heng with dissatisfaction:

"Fucha Fuheng, the Queen is your biological sister! How can you just ignore her? This palace is full of sinister and cunning people, and the Queen is so kind and benevolent. I must eliminate all these dangers before I can leave here with peace of mind."

After hearing these words, Fu Heng couldn't help feeling a little ashamed and slowly lowered his head.

He knew that his words might cause Wei Yingluo's dissatisfaction, but he also had his own considerations.

So, he said softly: "Yingluo, don't worry. I told you before that I will always wait for you. But judging from the current situation, I think you need more protection than the Queen..."

However, Wei Yingluo did not respond to him, but remained silent.

Seeing this, Fu Heng hurriedly grabbed Wei Yingluo's hand and said sincerely: "Yingluo, please don't be angry with me, okay? I understand your thoughts and will respect your decision. But please promise me that no matter what happens, don't let yourself get hurt. If you encounter any difficulties or troubles, be sure to tell me, I will do my best to help you."

Wei Yingluo looked at Fu Heng's sincere expression, and the anger in her heart gradually subsided.

Finally, she smiled and said that she was willing to be taken care of by him. Seeing this, Fu Heng felt relieved.

But seeing that it was getting late, Fu Heng advised Wei Yingluo to go to bed early.

He sat quietly beside the bed, fanning her with a fan. He told Wei Yingluo that he would wait until she fell asleep before leaving.

But the naughty Wei Yingluo couldn't bear to fall asleep. She blinked her bright eyes and deliberately asked:

"But Master, didn't you say that we can't meet at night because it's 'inappropriate' and would damage my reputation?"
