Chapter 910: Words May Lie But The Body Was Honest
The corner of Chu Jiu’s mouth twitched as she watched a certain Emperor walk toward the lavatory.
Could she be seeing first-hand what they meant by ‘Words may lie but the body was honest’?
His Majesty may have forgotten the Empress, but deep down, he still loved her very much, and that was something that remained unchanged.
The Empress had only left for a very short time, but His Majesty still had a place for her in his heart, which was why it felt like an eternity to him since he last saw her.
Lu Liangwei and Zhu Yu came out of the lavatory in the forest one by one, and they both spotted the man leaning against a tree.
He looked quite impatient, as if annoyed at being made to wait, yet for some reason, he did not simply leave.
When he saw Lu Liangwei appear, he promptly straightened himself up and only then turned to leave.
Lu Liangwei was taken aback. When she realized what she had just witnessed, a mischievous look flashed in her eyes.
Zhu Yu was a little puzzled. “Could His Majesty be waiting just for you?”
Lu Liangwei shrugged. “Who knows?”
When they returned to the courtyard, Long Yang was back at his seat, working on marking the Palace Memorials again. Lu Liangwei was about to approach him when Chu Jiu came over and whispered into her ear, “His Majesty was quite worried when he didn’t see you return.”
Lu Liangwei smiled at this. Her depressed mood immediately lightened.
Even though His Majesty had temporarily forgotten everything that happened between them—even who she was—he still held her close in his heart, and that was enough.
She stood where she was and watched him for quite a while before pulling her gaze away to leave.
Long Yang lifted his head the moment she turned away. He frowned when he saw her walk out of Grand Phoenix Palace.
Why was she going out again?
This time, he forced himself not to go after her.
Women cannot be spoiled.
This woman defied all rules and regulations in the first place and did not respect him at all. If he continued to let her have her way, she would eventually be the one giving orders instead.
Lu Liangwei had no idea what was going through Long Yang’s mind right then. She had just left Grand Phoenix Palace when she saw her parents arrive.
Lu Hetian and Ling Lihua hurried over to her when they spotted her from afar.
“Weiwei, are you alright?” Ling Lihua grabbed her hand and inspected her all over worriedly.
Lu Hetian was also looking at her anxiously.
Lu Liangwei felt a wave of warmth in her heart as she quickly shook her head. “I’m fine. I’m sorry to have worried both of you.”
Both husband and wife were quickly relieved when they heard this.
“It’s good that you’re fine. Butler Zhao sent word to the mansion, requesting your mother to enter the Palace, but he did not explain the reason. This filled your grandmother with worry. She thought something must have happened to you, and she wanted to come to the Palace with us, but I managed to talk her out of it,” Lu Hetian said with a frown.
Lu Liangwei sighed and pulled on both their hands as she lowered her voice, “I’m not the one with the problem. It’s His Majesty.”
“What’s wrong with His Majesty?” Lu Hetian asked quickly.
Her parents were the closest kin to Lu Liangwei and the Grand Duke Family had always been loyal to the imperial court and dedicated their lives to it. There was nothing Lu Liangwei needed to hide from them. Moreover, she needed her mother’s help with His Majesty’s illness.
This was because His Majesty did not trust her medical skills at all and refused to allow her to diagnose him.
She explained the entire situation helplessly.
Lu Hetian and Ling Lihua were stunned when they heard the whole story. “What’s going on? His Majesty was doing just fine. Why would he suddenly forget about you?”
They had even spent the Lantern Festival together the night before and everyone had bore witness to how much His Majesty doted on Weiwei. How could His Majesty forget about Weiwei in a span of just one night?
They found this hard to believe.
Lu Liangwei frowned. “I think the situation is not as simple as we think, but one thing is for certain. His Majesty must be poisoned. However, Chief Physician Lin tried to diagnose him, but found nothing wrong. His Majesty doesn’t trust me now, which is why I can’t check on him. I have no choice but to trouble you, Mother.”
