After the Disabled God of War Became My Concubine-Chapter 4.2

The palanquin was remodeled with even more security than a prison wagon, as if he had the ability to grow wings and fly out.

Huo Wujiu had long been aware of how much he had terrified them in the past, and how much their abuse of him would now intensify.

As long as he was in enemy hands, the enemy’s fear would be transformed into a knife used to stab at him. Only when he reached the point where he was within a step from death’s door would they be relieved.

They were also right to do so. After all, as long as he still had a breath in him, then he, Huo Wujiu, would never sit around and wait for death.

But this Jingwang…

Huo Wujiu frowned.

He had never seen anyone like Jingwang. Jingwang was clearly afraid of him, and he had plenty of ways to dispose of him, and yet, he did nothing.

Huo Wujiu didn’t believe in the slightest that Jingwang was purely benevolent, but it seemed that he didn’t need to act on him yet.

Huo Wujiu closed his eyes.

He worked out a lot of the traps of his opponent as early as in the prison, preparing himself to defend against them. He knew there was bound to be a change, but he never thought…

The change he encountered was Jingwang himself.

Meng Qianshan, who was waiting at the door, was startled when he saw Jiang Suizhou pushing the door open by himself.

He looked at the sky and hurriedly greeted him saying, “Master, there’s still more than an hour before the grand court assembly. Why don’t you rest a bit more?”

Jiang Suizhou closed the door.

Grand Court Assembly? He knew that the Jing Dynasty didn’t practice a daily morning court session, but rather had one court session every five days, which was called the Grand Court Assembly.

It came as a surprise that the day after he came here, he would come across it.

He nodded his head and spoke gently, his voice a bit quiet, “I woke up early. It’s nothing.”

Meng Qianshan hastily answered, turned his head and ordered the servants to go to the King’s courtyard to prepare the meal, while he himself helped lead Jiang Suizhou out of the courtyard.

Jiang Suizhou hadn’t slept all night and was now dizzy and lightheaded, so he didn’t refuse and let Meng Qianshan help him.

Meng Qianshan carefully inspected him with a glance as they walked.

…Oh boy!

Dark blue eye bags, waxen face, unsteady gait; there was also a hidden exhaustion in the eyes.

Err…The Prince had quite an intense night, didn’t he?

Meng Qianshan took a look, then cautiously withdrew his gaze. But he couldn’t control himself, and looked back a second and third time.

He peeked too frequently that even Jiang Suizhou took notice.

Just as Jiang Suizhou boarded the palanquin parked at the gate of the courtyard, he found Meng Qianshan sneaking a peek at him again.

Jiang Suizhou couldn’t help but frown and asked, “What’s the matter?”

Meng Qianshan quickly withdrew his gaze and replied with a smile, “Nothing, nothing. I just wanted to ask Your Highness if there was anything you wanted to eat this morning.”

Jiang Suizhou shook his head. “Feel free to prepare whatever you wish.”

Meng Qianshan promptly responded, commanded the servants to carry the palanquin, and went in the direction of Anyin Hall.　　

Jiang Suizhou pondered for a moment and asked, “Meng Qingshan, have the arrangements been made for the courtyard where Huo Wuj…Madam Huo is moving to?”

Although his head was spinning, he still remembered his plans last night. The place where they slept last night was the ceremonial chamber used for wedding events in the royal residence. Today, Huo Wujiu was to move into his residence.

Since Jiang Suizhou had made up his mind not to provoke him, then Huo Wujiu must not be mistreated and lack these basic necessities.　　

Meng Qianshan was dumbfounded.

What? When did His Highness ask about such trivial matters in the residence?

Jiang Suizhou heard no response for a while, and when he turned his head sideways, he saw Meng Qianshan staring at him dumbfounded.

“Meng Qianshan,” he prompted.

Meng Qingshan answered, “Your Highness, don’t worry. I arranged it ages ago!”

Jiang Suizhou paused and then said, “He seems to be badly injured. Ask someone to examine him later.”

Good lord, I can’t believe I have to find a doctor for someone else.

Meng Qianshan nodded repeatedly, “I’ll go find a doctor later to take a look at Madam Huo.”

Jiang Suizhou grunted and said, “Serve him snacks.”

After saying that, he withdrew his gaze, closed his eyes and supported his head with one arm as he took a nap.

He did not notice that Meng Qianshan, who was following beside him, had long been stunned silly by his command.

He was already screaming deep inside.

He was sent to serve the Prince since he was ten years old and had been with him for many years, but when had he ever seen him ask after these matters?!

It was not that there were no other ladies in the mansion, but even if they were favored, he had never seen such care for them from his master!

He did not forget that when the Prince arrived last night, he was as cold as frost with anger. He threw the veil down and drank the wedding cup alone yesterday. Just looking into his eyes sent cold sweat down Meng Qianahan’s spine.

But in just one night, h-he actually began to care about the Madam inside!

What else could let people change their attitude so quickly? He knew these things even if he was just a eunuch.

But come to think of it…

The Prince’s appearance of overindulgence and excessive lust today showed him a glimpse or two of the methods used by the Madam inside.

Thinking of this, Meng Qianshan couldn’t help but sigh.

Unexpectedly…unexpectedly, that cripple had such skills!
