I married an exasperating eunuch Chapter 60 part 1

Chapter 60 Sick (1)

Li Youde’s attitude made Chen Hui get a bad premonition. However, she didn’t rush to follow him. Instead, she let Xiao Tiao support her and asked in a low voice, “How did lord tell Commandery Princess Shuning?”

“This slave was not present at that time…,” Xiao Tiao said, “But when Commandery Princess Shuning came out, this slave saw her. She seemed a bit preoccupied…”

Preoccupied…What exactly did Li Youde say to Commandery Princess Shuning?!

Chen Hui couldn’t help but quicken her pace. She felt…Commandery Princess Shuning’s side might be worse.

Chen Hui was a complete mess. She first went to the abode to change into the spare clothes she brought. Then, she rapidly made herself presentable. Only after that could she be considered to look like a human being. Thinking back when she jumped onto Li Youde and rubbed the dirt on his body, she couldn’t help but want to laugh. That was right, she did it on purpose.

She was worried about Commander Princess Shuning’s side after all. Chen Hui quickly took Xiao Tiao out.

At this time, the two assassins had been tied up and taken to the capital, leaving only a few people that Li Youde brought. And the temple had resumed to the free pass-through of usual.

With one glance, Chen Hui saw that Commandery Princess Shuning and Zheng Rongrong were whispering something. She didn’t dare to walk over for a while. Ay, the embarrassment of the lie being exposed.  It was incomprehensible for those who haven’t experienced it personally.

Reaching out was a blow, withdrawing was also a blow. Chen Hui walked towards Commandery Princess Shuning and Zheng Rongrong.

When Commandery Princess Shuning saw Chen Hui approach, her face suddenly became a bit weird. She only watched Chen Hui approach with wide eyes.

Chen Hui walked to Commandery Princess Shuning and smiled, “Commandery Princess Shuning.”

“What are you doing here?!” Commandery Princess Shuning learned the news that Chen hui was safe and sound before she appeared. When she got the news, she felt a faint sense of relief, but there was also the annoyance of being deceived. Her anger had mostly disappeared with Zheng Rongrong’s persuasion, but when Chen Hui came to her with a nonchalant face, she recalled the days she had been deceived and anger couldn’t help from gushing out of her heart.

“I heard that Commandery Princess Shuning already knows my situation. I also don’t have much to say,” Chen Hui sighed in her heart. Looking at Commandery Princess Shuning’s attitude, they wouldn’t be able to be friends anymore in the future. At least, she shouldn’t make the goodbye too ugly, “Lord Li is waiting for me. I will leave first.”

“Wait!” Before Chen Hui turned around, Commandery Princess Shuning stopped her flustered and exasperated, “Did I allow you to leave?”

Chen Hui looked at Commandery Princess Shuning, waiting for her to continue.

Commandery Princess Shuning bit her lower lip. She turned around to look at Zheng Rongrong. The latter gave her an encouraging look.

After Commandery Princess Shuning got pissed off by Li Youde and went back, she quietly told Zheng Rongrong the shocking news that she had just learned. At first, Zheng Rongrong was as shocked as she was, but while Commandery Princess Shining was still mad at Chen Hui’s concealment and guessed her purpose of approaching them, Zheng Rongrong made Commandery Princess Shuning shocked on spot with a single sentence, “Lady Chen…she had been pretending to look happy all along, right?” Afterward, with Zheng Rongrong’s explanation, Commandery Princess Shuning thought about what it would be like for an ordinary woman to learn that she had been given to a castrated person, and she thought about that the castrated person was a treacherous and shameless person like Lord Li. The anger that filled the brain turned into a complex emotion that stuck in the chest. Anyway, if it was her who had encountered such a thing, she would have the heart to kill Lord Li and then kill herself. How could she be like Lady Chen? She was obviously living in days of suffering and humiliation and still pretended to be happy when she met up with them. If it wasn’t because of what had happened today, they wouldn’t have known how miserable she was!

“I can…I can let my father help you! I, I can also go to the emperor!” Commandery Princess Shuning said, “No matter how powerful Lord Li is, he can’t go beyond the imperial household!”

Chen Hui was stunned and was stupefied for a moment. She was startled by the thoughts of Commandery Princess Shuning.

She suddenly turned her head and looked outside once. One couldn’t see the outside of the temple from here, but she knew that Li Youde was in the carriage outside and waiting to go back together with her.

A strong resistance gushed out from the bottom of her heart. Chen Hui smiled and said, “Thank you, Commandery Princess, but there is no need.”

“Why?!” Commandery Princess Shuning was puzzled, “You don’t have to worry. Others may be afraid of Lord Li, but my father wouldn’t be afraid of him!”

“It is not for this reason…” For the first time in her life, Chen Hui felt that her dictionary was poor. Being able to claim connection with such a big tree like Commandery Princess Shuning and let her say that she (S) would stick out for her (CH) by her (S) own initiative, she originally should’ve grabbed this chance. After all, she would basically be able to leave Li residence if Commandery Princess Shuning undertook the task.

However, the relation between her and the original’s family was not a very pleasant one. She, an unmarried girl in name, even if she was unwilling, Chen household had the right to bring her back. So much that they could even tie her up and forcefully take her back. Even if it got to the authorities, she wouldn’t stand in reason. In the future, she would be in the grasp of Chen household. Tell Commandery Princess Shuning about her grievances with Chen household and let her back her to intimidate Chen household? How could she say the grievances between her and her maiden home clearly? More problems would be implicated in this. Besides, could Commandery Princess Shuning protect her for a lifetime? Also, is there an essential difference between being living with Commandery Princess Shuning’s protection or being under Li Youde’s wing?

Excluding all those rational considerations, Chen Hui could hardly deny the unwillingness when she thought about leaving Li residence. Was this the effect of the young bird? She has been at Li residence since the moment she had time-traveled. There is here home in this world now. There are people with who she couldn’t bear to part with…

Thinking of this, Chen Hui was startled suddenly. Some previous confusion seemed to have gotten an answer. But that answer was too frightening even for her.

“Then, why?” Commandery Princess Shuning looked at Chen Hui in confusion.

Chen said, “…I can’t say it clearly, but Commandery Princess, I’m living well now. So, there is really no need to trouble Commandery Princess.”

Commandery Princess Shuning said stirred up, “How can you be living well?! You were given away by your father and it was to that kind of person! What will you do from now on?! Those kind…those kinds of people are the worse. Maybe, he will give you away if it benefitted him. What will you do then?!”

Girl, it is not good to say this kind of exposing things aloud. If it was a thin-skinned person who heard it, he would’ve cried a long time ago.

Chen Hui somewhat didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. Just as she was about to say something, she realized that Commandery Princess Shuning’s expression was not right.

Chen Hui turned her head consciously and saw that Li Youde was not far away and walked slowly towards here. The expression on his face didn’t look good.

He looked coldly at Commandery Princess Shuning and said with sarcasm, “Commandery Princess Shuning, you have already concerned yourself with my backyard. This is not something an unmarried girl who abides by the rules should do.”

Commandery Princess Shuning choked, “But…but you are a castrated court official. What backyard do you have?! This is because the emperor indulged too much on people like you!”

“Tsk, tsk, tsk, Commandery Princess Shuning, it is a big crime to talk presumptuously about the emperor. Don’t you understand the principle that trouble comes from the mouth?” Li Youde’s expression darkened and smiled coldly as he said that.
