"This wangfei is alright. Thanking Wangye for the concern."

Yi Huiqing said to Zhao Zhang Wei politely just like how a wangfei was supposed to say. Before lowering her head, she had seen the wound on Zhao Zhang Wei's temple and she wondered how he got it. She had wanted to ask him this question but then she didn't after some thought. 

Zhao Zhang Wei was however not satisfied with this. A frown marred his forehead. Yi Huiqing felt more distant to him this way.

Her head was lowered. He wanted to look into her eyes.

He looked at all the servants with dissatisfaction and then waved his hand to dismiss all of them.

Eunuch Zhang who was looking at his master immediately understood what he wanted to do and said to all the servants.

"Leave."

Eunuch Zhang said as he started to push all the servants and maids to leave from there. His eyes then fell on the Concubine Shaolin who was still standing there as if she didn't hear anything.

Without thinking anything, Eunuch Zhang walked to her and said

"My Lady, His Highness wants everyone to leave."

Shaolin's eyes moved to look at Eunuch Zhang. She, of course, had seen Zhao Zhang Wei dismissing everyone but she didn't want to leave.

She wanted to hear what Zhao Zhang Wei wanted to talk about with Yi Huiqing but after Eunuch Zhang was asking her to leave, she knew that she couldn't stay.

So gritting her teeth, she smiled forcefully and said

"This concubine didn't hear carefully before."

After saying this, she was about to leave when she saw Yi Huiqing holding her maid's hand who had been kneeling on the ground before and had got up to leave now.

Holding Lin Daiyu's hand, Yi Huiqing said firmly

"Daiyu won't leave."

Yi Huiqing actually didn't know why Zhao Zhang Wei sent all of the servants away. However, one thing that she knew of was that she didn't want to be left alone with Zhao Zhang Wei.

Zhao Zhang Wei frowned and wanted to refuse but a moment later, the word that came out of his mouth was

"Alright."

He said helplessly.

Shaolin clenched her fists in envy. He could allow a maid to stay here just because Yi Huiqing asked him to but she, as a concubine, had to leave from there like any other servant.

With an envious heart, however, she could do nothing except leave from there silently.

"How have you been?"

Zhao Zhang Wei asked very gently and for a moment Yi Huiqing was startled.

She raised her head to look at Zhao Zhang Wei and she couldn't help but inhale sharply on seeing the deep emotion in his phoenix eyes.

Yi Huiqing looked away without any reason and swallowed before saying.

"This wangfei is alright."

She gave the same answer. Zhao Zhang Wei, however, was not satisfied with this answer. He thought that it was Yi Huiqing who didn't want to tell him anything so he shouted for Eunuch Zhang.

Yi Huiqing frowned in confusion while Eunuch Zhang soon came over.     

"Call the Imperial Physician immediately."

Eunuch Zhang's eyes were filled with worry and concern and he asked Zhao Zhang Wei.

"Is Your Highness not feeling well? This one will immediately call for an Imperial Physician."

Zhao Zhang Wei immediately shook his head. He remembered something and said a little strictly.

"Not for Benwang. Call the physician to check wangfei."

Realization dawned on Eunuch Zhang. He immediately nodded his head understanding his master's indication.

Since the physician was supposed to be for wangfei then it could not be Imperial Physician Sun Chao. That was what  Zhao Zhang Wei had meant and Eunuch Zhang understood t very well.

Yi Huiqing's eyes went wide with shock. She had not expected that Zhao Zhang Wei would call for an Imperial Physician. If the physician really came over then it would become a big matter and by any chance, if the Imperial Physician said that there was nothing wrong with her then what would she do.

Everyone would obviously think that she didn't visit Zhao Zhang Wei intentionally and didn't even welcome when Empress visited Xinhe Palace.

Yi Huiqing knew very well that this kind of news spread very fast in the Imperial Palace. The Empress already didn't like her much and if she came to know of this then she couldn't even imagine what would her life become and what extra troubles her clan would have to face.

She panicked when she saw that Eunuch Shang was ready to leave and said hurriedly.

"This wangfei is alright…no need of a physician."

Eunuch Zhang stopped and looked at his master as if asking whether he should really go or not. Zhao Zhang Wei looked at Yi Huiqing and said firmly.

"If it concerns wangfei's health, then Benwang won't listen to any excuse of wangfei. Eunuch Zhang, what are waiting for? Go and call the physician."

Yi Huiqing wished to beat her head on something. She looked at Lin Daiyu with frustration-filled eyes. It was her doing after all.

The maid squirmed in discomfort clearly knowing her fault. In the end, Yi Huiqing had to say the truth.

"This wangfei lied, Your Highness."

Eunuch Zhang stopped amidst his steps again while Zhao Zhang Wei froze completely.

With blank eyes, he looked at Yi Huiqing as he continued

"This one was very well but came to know about Wangye being unwell just this morning. This one didn't know about Her Majesty's arrival at all and that's why couldn't welcome her. This wangfei apologizes for not being able to complete her responsibilities of the main wife." 

Yi Huiqing's apology was very sincere and she didn't look she was lying.

Zhao Zhang Wei's eyes were however blank. Yi Huiqing thought that Zhao Zhang Wei was angry at her when she remembered how she had lied to her last time too and he had come to her courtyard late at night.

She couldn't help but swallow in fear and panic remembering that horrible night.   

Will he do that again if he was angry?

Lin Daiyu thought the same. She felt guilt and regret seeping inside her heart thinking that now the prince would be angry at her mistress because of her.

With some thought, she stepped forward and kneeled down in front of Zhao Zhang Wei respectfully.

"Your Highness, it is this servant who should apologize. Wangfei was never at fault. It was this servant who had been irresponsible and didn't inform wangfei at the time. This servant deserves to be punished."

Lin Daiyu sobbed as she said this.

Yi Huiqing was worried that Zhao Zhang Wei would really punish Lin Daiyu. She was about to speak when Zhao Zhang Wei waved his hand and said in a quite heavy voice.

"Leave."

Lin Daiyu stopped sobbing in surprise.

Just this…

Yi Huiqing and Eunuch Zhang were also surprised. They looked at Zhao Zhang Wei in surprise. Zhao Zhang Wei, however, didn't have any emotion on his face and his phoenix eyes stared at Yi Huiqing's face as if he was trying to find something.

Then suddenly he turned around and went inside his chambers without saying anything.
