He didn’t realize that the girl before him was the extraordinary woman he had always wanted to meet.

When the Emperor bestowed the title of a baroness upon Chu Qingzhi, he was also present. In the Daling Dynasty, women’s status was not particularly high, yet some industries saw the presence of outstanding women. However, Chu Qingzhi was the first woman to be granted the status of a baroness. Since then, Eunuch Li Fei had developed a strong interest in her, longing to meet this unprecedented woman.

Now that he had met her, he didn’t recognize her.

In the imperial bedroom, the Emperor started to convulse slightly, and his headache intensified. If not for the painkiller, he might have screamed out in pain.

Upon entering the bedroom, Chu Qingzhi approached the dragon bed, took the Emperor’s pulse, and infused a few wisps of spiritual energy into his body. The Emperor’s addiction wasn’t severe, and a few wisps of spiritual energy were enough to detoxify him.

Detoxification could also be achieved through medication, but it would be slower, and the Emperor needed to handle state affairs. Any delay might affect Tang Jinghong’s secret mission.

Under the influence of spiritual energy, the Emperor slowly recovered, showing no signs of just being poisoned.

Sitting up, the Emperor looked at his disheveled appearance and clenched his teeth in secret anger. He vowed to execute the mastermind behind this by lingchi (death by a thousand cuts)!

Chu Qingzhi went to write a prescription, and Yuan Hongjun approached to ask, “Your Majesty, are you alright now?”

“I’m fine,” the Emperor replied, taking a handkerchief from Li Fei to wipe his sweat. His emotions didn’t show, “Hongjun, you cured me. What reward would you like?”

Yuan Hongjun stepped aside, pointing to Chu Qingzhi, who was writing the prescription, “Your Majesty, it was my master who cured you.”

“Your master?” The Emperor turned in surprise to see the young girl in a light green dress, her hair neatly tied up with a silver hairpin, her beauty radiant like a shining pearl.

“She’s your master?” Even the Emperor, who had seen many beauties, was taken aback by Chu Qingzhi’s appearance.

“Yes,” Yuan Hongjun replied, noticing the Emperor’s stare. He quickly whispered, “She’s also Brother Tang’s fiancee.”

The Emperor was stunned. What luck did Tang Jinghong have to find such a pearl?

Chu Qingzhi handed the prescription to Li Fei, “Eunuch, administer to His Majesty this twice a day…”

Li Fei received the prescription with both hands. “Thank you, Miss.”

After bowing, he arranged for two eunuchs to serve the Emperor and personally went to the Imperial Hospital to prepare the medicine.

Chu Qingzhi approached the Emperor, “There must be others in the palace suffering from the same addiction. To prevent panic, Your Majesty should immediately arrange for their treatment.”

In her eyes, the Emperor was no different from any other person.

The Emperor scrutinized Chu Qingzhi closely. Her exceptional beauty was one thing, but more importantly, it was her innate composure and the absence of pretense that impressed him. She seemed better at concealing her emotions than him, and she was still young. People who could control their emotions at such a level were usually extraordinary individuals.

Tang Jinghong’s choice in women was indeed exceptional, and she was unlike any ordinary woman.

Realizing this, the Emperor understood why Tang Jinghong rejected the princess. Even a princess couldn’t compare to her.

“Thank you for your treatment, Miss.”

“No need to be polite,” Chu Qingzhi replied, then turned to Yuan Hongjun, “I’ve written two copies of the prescription. You handle the rest.”

Yuan Hongjun nodded solemnly, “Rest assured, master. I’ll take care of everything.”

“If there’s any issue, send me a message. I’m leaving now.” After delegating the task, Chu Qingzhi prepared to leave the palace.

The Emperor watched Chu Qingzhi as she left and couldn’t help but feel puzzled. He wondered how this young lady could converse with him so casually.

Just then, the Empress rushed into the bedroom, anxiously holding the little crown prince, “Your Majesty, look at our son. What’s wrong with him?”

As Chu Qingzhi was stepping out of the bedroom, the Empress, running fast, nearly collided with her. However, Chu Qingzhi reacted quickly and dodged.

However, the empress was still startled. She hugged the crown prince and fell forward. “Ah—”

This scene left the guards stationed at the palace gate and Li Fei breathless, with their hearts in their throats

Chu Qingzhi quickly went forward to support the empress and the crown prince.

The Empress’s face turned pale. After she stabilized herself, it took her a while to react.

Chu Qingzhi didn’t wait for her to react and immediately picked up the crown prince in her arms

The crown prince had also inhaled the incense and was currently experiencing withdrawal symptoms. He was covered in cold sweat, convulsing all over, and his complexion was pale, resembling someone suffering from a severe medical emergency

The Empress did not like incense, so she escaped.

Chu Qingzhi placed the crown prince on the dragon couch, checked his pulse, and discreetly infused him with a few wisps of spiritual energy, relieving the crown prince’s withdrawal symptoms.contemporary romance

The crown prince was only three years old, a tiny and chubby toddler, looking adorable and dignified from head to toe.

This was a child born into an extremely noble family, different from others from the moment of birth, living a life of great privilege.

Chu Qingzhi did not want to see such a cute little guy suffer.

After the poison was removed, the crown prince woke up. He opened his big watery eyes and raised his small hand to pat his head. “It doesn’t hurt anymore.”

Shortly after, he noticed Chu Qingzhi, a big sister he had never seen before. Why was she in the palace? Did she save him?

Seeing that the little crown prince was really cute, Chu Qingzhi couldn’t help but pat his little head. “It’s fine.”

The crown prince looked very puzzled, his eyes fixed on Chu Qingzhi. His head was one of the most noble heads in the world, second only to his father’s. How dare she touch his head? This left the little prince quite perplexed. ‘Who are you?

Chu Qingzhi pinched the crown prince’s face again and smiled. “I saved you just now. Shouldn’t you call me sister?”

When Li Fei and the other palace servants saw this scene, they held their breaths. This was the little crown prince, not a child of an ordinary family. She was touching his head and pinching his face. She even asked him to call her sister. Hiss, she was too bold!

“The emperor and empress also watched with curiosity. Their son was not one to easily get close to people, but at this moment, he seemed uncharacteristically unbothered

The crown prince looked at Chu Qingzhi and rolled his big watery eyes. “Big Sister, thank you for saving me.”

“Good boy…” Chu Qingzhi smiled and stroked the crown prince’s head. “Drink the medicine obediently. I’m leaving first.”

The crown prince grabbed Chu Qingzhi’s sleeve. “Why don’t you stay in the palace?”

Everyone was surprised.

Chu Qingzhi turned around and looked at the little crown prince. She smiled and asked, “Why did you let me stay?”

The crown prince said. “Because, because I want you to stay..”
