"Girl, has no one told you? You can talk about anyone in this palace, but you must never mention the emperor!"

As the maid spoke, she kept her eyes on the surroundings, fearing that someone might come and hear her say something she shouldn't have.

When Ji Chenxing looked at her, he knew that he could definitely get some information out of her.

Ji Chenxing took out some peanuts, melon seeds, chocolate and other things from the space and placed them on the table. While eating, he asked the little palace maid: "Why do you say that?"

Things from the 21st century seem to be more fragrant than those from ancient times. The little palace maid looked at Ji Chenxing eating with relish and swallowed her saliva.

But she still said nothing, her eyes constantly looking left and right.

There were so many people around that it was inconvenient for her to speak.

Ji Chenxing saw what she meant, so he found a random excuse to dismiss everyone.

After the palace servants left, Ji Chenxing took out a lot of snacks and placed them on the table, motioning the little palace maid to sit down and eat together.

"They've all left, can we tell you now?" Ji Chenxing said, pushing the food in front of the little palace maid.

The little palace maid's eyes moved, but she still didn't speak, as if she was struggling.

"Don't worry, when my master comes back to pick me up, I will leave here and won't stay in your palace for long. You don't have to be afraid that I will tell others what you told me."

When the little palace maid heard Ji Chenxing say this, her eyes lit up.

"Young lady, are you a person who travels around?" The little palace maid's eyes sparkled.

Ji Chenxing nodded against his conscience, "Yes."

This is the character she created for herself.

"Is that girl's master a master? Does he have medical skills?"

There was some longing in the little palace maid's eyes.

"This..." The little palace maid took over the role, leaving Ji Chenxing a little stunned. "Actually, I have some quick-acting miraculous medicines in my hand. If you believe me, why not tell me what it is? I'll see if I can help you."

The decoction prescriptions of the ancients took very long to take effect. When Ji Chenxing came back from the 21st century, there were still a lot of medicines for treating colds and fevers left in his space. It was not a lie to say that he had a miraculous medicine.

Ji Chenxing was able to enter the palace because of a night pearl. Now that she said she had something extraordinary, the little palace maid did not doubt it at all.

After hearing Ji Chenxing's affirmative answer, the little palace maid didn't even ask what the medicine in her hand was used for. She knelt on the ground with weak legs and said, "Please, girl, save the emperor."

"Are you talking about Lu Yuzhou?" Ji Chenxing blinked. She came here just to save Lu Yuzhou.

But it was hard to put it so clearly. After all, this little palace maid had just said that the emperor could not be mentioned in the palace, but the first thing she did was to ask me to save the emperor.

You have to know that these people are all people of this era. In this era, the people don’t care who the emperor is. They only care about whether their lives are good.

Who is the emperor and what does he have to do with the little palace maid in front of him.

"What's your name? Don't kneel down yet." Ji Chenxing pulled her up from the ground. "There's no one around right now. Tell me what happened slowly. If I can save you, I will definitely help you."

Ji Chenxing was easy to talk to, so after the little palace maid listened to him, she stood up from the ground.

There were still some tears on her eyelashes, obviously she had just cried. "My name is Pei'er, and I was originally a maid serving in front of the emperor..."

Pearl said a lot in one breath.

Ji Chenxing summarized it, and it was roughly this:
Pei'er used to be a maid serving in the palace before the emperor, but Lu Yuzhou had some health problems to begin with, and no matter how much medicine was sent to him, his condition did not improve.

Later on, Lu Yuzhou found it very difficult to handle government affairs and had to hand over many things to Lu Feng.

Lu Feng had always coveted the imperial power, and after obtaining Lu Yuzhou's helpless permission, Lu Feng's covetousness became uncontrollable.

From small things to big things, Lu Feng eroded Lu Yuzhou's rights bit by bit. Without even seeking Lu Yuzhou's consent, he launched reforms, levied heavy taxes, and implemented tyranny.

Later, imperial power was no longer imperial power, but became the power of Lufeng; people in the palace were no longer allowed to mention the emperor, only King Cheng.

Originally under the rule of Lu Yuzhou, Pei'er's family lived a good life. But since Lu Feng came to power, Pei'er was sent to other places to do menial work as a palace maid, and her monthly salary was not even enough to pay the family's taxes.

Although the young palace maid did not understand the affairs of the court, she could see the suffering of the people since Lu Yuzhou fell ill and Lu Feng took control of the government.

She was not well educated, and the only way she could think of to save herself and her parents was to cure Lu Yuzhou's illness.

From her story, Ji Chenxing could also hear that Lu Yuzhou's ruling power in the palace was not lost, he was just ill at present. But as long as he was not dead, he was still the emperor, and everyone in the palace respected him very much and listened to him.

After finishing her story, Pei'er looked at Ji Chenxing with anticipation.

"How about it, girl, can you cure him?"

Ji Chenxing thought for a moment and said, "I'm not sure. I have to wait until I see the emperor's specific situation before I can draw a conclusion."

After hearing Ji Chenxing's words, Pei'er not only did not give up, but instead seemed to have found her backbone.

"Then I'll wait for the girl." Pei'er became determined all of a sudden. As long as there was a little hope, she wanted to grab it.

Ji Chenxing nodded: "Okay."

By this time, she had finished soaking her feet, and after wiping them clean, she crawled into the bed warmed by the hot water bottle.

Pei'er went out for a while and then came back. Ji Chenxing stopped her and asked about Lu Yuzhou's current situation.

If Lu Yuzhou's condition is relatively good, she can play for a few days before taking action. If not, she will leave tonight.

If it was a few days later, she would have time to make more strategies, but if time was urgent, she would not have the time to think so much.

But this time, before she could open her mouth, Pearl burst into tears.

Her emotions fluctuated greatly, but she was worried that people might hear her, so she kept her voice very low when she spoke, which was very touching.

"Miss, Miss, it's not good. The imperial physician said that His Majesty's condition has suddenly worsened and he may not survive the night. Miss, please, go and see him!"

At this time, the system also gave a prompt: [Host, what she said is true. According to my observation, Lu Yuzhou in this world only has a few hours left to live. Please leave immediately and go to the Qinzheng Palace! ]

Ji Chenxing stood up from the bed with a thud. It seemed that he had to go out tonight. (End of this chapter)
