Chapter 338: Tricked by the Little Eunuch

Fortunately, Song Miqiu hadn't forgotten some of her cooking skills after transmigrating, and she had also honed them during the years she spent at home.

It's still possible to cook a few simple, home-style dishes.

Besides, the Seventh Prince has tasted all sorts of delicacies; he only wants rare and unusual things. Only ordinary dishes from common people's homes can attract him.

Without hesitation, Song Miqiu rolled up his sleeves and got busy in the kitchen.

Finally, after two hours, Song Miqiu looked at the empty table and smiled.

"That's great!"

Before the person who had gone to treat Consort Li had returned after finishing all this, Song Miqiu quickly tidied up and prepared to go to the place where she had agreed to meet the Seventh Prince.

Song Miqiu muttered to himself along the way.

"Wait a minute, how do I know the food in this kitchen isn't poisonous? This won't do."

After saying that, he turned around and went to the Imperial Hospital.

He rummaged around and stuffed all sorts of antidotes into his pockets.

"That should be fine. In case we really get poisoned, we'll have a way to cure it."

Having made thorough preparations, Song Miqiu arrived at the agreed location early, but the Seventh Prince never showed up.

Song Miqiu grew increasingly anxious as she waited, constantly worried that something might have happened to the Seventh Prince.

Half an hour passed, and Song Miqiu could no longer wait.

"I need to go and take a look at the Seventh Prince's residence."

Just as he was about to leave, he saw a young eunuch walking towards him.

It stopped right in front of me.

"You must be Imperial Physician Song Miqiu?"

Song Miqiu didn't recognize the little eunuch in front of him at all, and nodded with a look of surprise.

"Uh-huh."

Only then did the young eunuch reveal his purpose.

"This servant was sent by the Seventh Prince. The Seventh Prince is unable to come and cannot keep the appointment. I hope you will not worry."

Song Miqiu couldn't understand how he couldn't come. "Did something happen to the Seventh Prince?"

The little eunuch then started stammering and didn't say anything, which made Song Miqiu anxious.

"Speak quickly!"

"Imperial Physician, our Seventh Prince is ill. He specifically instructed me not to tell you."

Song Miqiu was filled with anxiety, not understanding how she had fallen ill in just one day.

"The Seventh Prince is at his residence."

The young eunuch nodded, then realized what he meant a second later, "Imperial Physician, you absolutely mustn't say that I told you, or the Seventh Prince will blame me if he finds out."

Song Miqiu waved her hand, not caring about anything else; the safety of the Seventh Prince was the most important thing right now.

After walking a few steps, he realized that he had no idea where the Seventh Prince's residence was.

He stopped in his tracks, and just then, he bumped right into the little eunuch who was walking behind him.

"what!"

Song Miqiu turned around and looked at the little eunuch.

Since the eunuch is the Seventh Prince's man, he must know where the Seventh Prince is now.

"Take me there quickly."

Knowing what the little eunuch was about to say, she stopped him from speaking before he could even open his mouth.

"Oh, I know all that, I won't tell."

Only then did the young eunuch agree to take Song Miqiu to the Seventh Prince's residence.

Song Miqiu was carrying delicious food and was walking in a hurry, so he simply put the food aside, thinking there would be plenty of opportunities to make him delicious food later.

Only then did the two of them hurry forward.

But after walking for a full half hour, we still hadn't arrived at our destination.

Song Miqiu carefully looked around and felt that everything was very unfamiliar. It didn't seem like a place where a prince would be in the palace. It was even a little desolate.

That's when suspicion began to arise.

Recalling everything that had just happened, how could Song Miqiu know whether the young eunuch leading the way was from the Seventh Prince's residence? All his statements were just his own side of the story.

After following the eunuch for a few more steps, Song Miqiu was almost certain that the eunuch was not going to lead her to the Seventh Prince's residence.

Looking around, Song Miqiu was looking for an opportunity to secretly escape.

However, the terrain here was too rugged to escape from, so Song Miqiu had no choice but to wait for an opportunity.

When Song Miqiu was looking around, a young eunuch accidentally saw her when he turned around.

So the little eunuch stopped, his face still bearing the same expression.

"The Imperial Physician will be arriving at the Seventh Prince's residence soon. Why don't you go ahead?"

Song Miqiu knew in his heart that something was wrong; how could he possibly escape when he was walking in front?

"No need, I walk slowly, I can just follow behind."

When the young eunuch heard Song Miqiu say this, he simply stopped pretending.

He instantly pulled a dagger from his pocket and stabbed it at Song Miqiu behind him.

Fortunately, Song Miqiu was prepared and turned around to dodge.

Soon the little eunuch rushed towards Song Miqiu again.

After several battles, Song Miqiu quickly realized that the little eunuch was no ordinary person and that his martial arts skills far surpassed his own.

Every time Song Miqiu fought him, he would look for an opportunity to escape, but each time the eunuch would notice.

Gradually, the eunuch gained the upper hand, and Song Miqiu was caught off guard and captured by the eunuch.

"Who are you? Who sent you?"

Even after being captured, Song Miqiu remained relentless, relentlessly demanding to know who had tried to kill him.

"Do you, a dying man, need to know so much about who I am?"

Song Miqiu struggled and gritted her teeth, saying, "Just because I'm about to die, you can't tell me so I can die knowing why?"

This plan clearly had no effect on the young eunuch.

"Hahahaha, you still want to trick me into talking? Dream on! Go ask the King of Hell in the underworld instead."

Song Miqiu thought to herself, "This is really the end. What about the Seventh Prince and entering the palace? If I had known this would happen, I would have known that life is the most important thing. Wouldn't it have been better to just live a peaceful life?"

Song Miqiu could only complain to herself, while praying that she could travel through time again.

Just as the eunuch raised his dagger to stab Song Miqiu in the heart, the Seventh Prince appeared before Song Miqiu like an angel.

Song Miqiu was so moved that she almost cried.

"Seventh Prince, please save me!"

The Seventh Prince stood majestically in front, followed by the Imperial Guards.

He overwhelmed the weak and powerless eunuch simply by his imposing presence.

The dagger in the little eunuch's hand also appeared extremely small.

Since there was only one weapon, the young eunuch didn't know who to point it at.

"How...how did you find this place? How did you discover it?"

The Seventh Prince didn't bother to answer his question at all. "Now I'm giving you a chance to redeem yourself. The choice is whether you release her yourself or I kill you and then release her."

The young eunuch, clearly still unaware of the Seventh Prince's power, continued to struggle, asking, "Who do you think you are? Do you think your martial arts are superior to mine?"

The Seventh Prince sneered, "This is because you didn't seize the opportunity."

The Seventh Prince turned to the Imperial Guards behind him and said, "Go! Remember, I want them alive."

Just then, Song Miqiu seized the opportunity to break free from the eunuch's grasp and quickly found a safe place to hide, where he could also see the scene of the Imperial Guards fighting with the eunuch.
