Chapter 536: Chapter 535: I will absolutely not let anyone hurt you, including myself!_1
Unable to resist, she gently touched the wrist pulse of Imperial Consort Hua. With a thread-thin inner strength circulating swiftly within the consort’s body, she quickly identified the cause. The inner strength then returned to Su Pan’er’s body.
Imperial Consort Hua’s pulse phase clearly showed that she had been weakened by a miscarriage. Although attempts were made for recovery, they barely bore any fruit.
But that wasn’t the main point, the critical issue lay in her body, where a mysterious toxin was floating around—not exactly like a poison, yet not completely dissimilar either.
Although it’s not difficult to expel the toxin at present, with many imperial physicians within the palace and Imperial Consort Hua being deeply cherished by His Majesty, the most challenging task would be to find its source.
In the two blinks it took from her approach to checking the pulse, Su Pan’er had already withdrawn her hand.
Imperial Consort Hua looked somewhat puzzled: "Pan’er, about my health..."
"Aunt, don’t worry, let me think a bit longer."
Su Pan’er lifted her head slightly, her lips curling up in a faint smile, as she looked at Imperial Consort Hua. "Aunt, I’d like to take a walk around this splendid palace of yours and appreciate the scenery, if it’s convenient?"
The indication was clear.
Almost instantly, Imperial Consort Hua understood Su Pan’er’s intentions and chuckled lightly: "It’s your first time here, I ought to extend you the host’s hospitality after all. There’s no shortage of stunning views here. Why don’t I have Fei’er accompany you for a walk around the place?"
This signaled agreement.
Su Pan’er quickly bowed in gratitude.
Fei’er had been impatiently waiting at the side. Hearing her mother suggest that she show her cousin around, she couldn’t contain herself.
She immediately stood up and said, "Mother, you must be tired. Rest a while and I’ll take my cousin around."
With that, she stepped forward to Su Pan’er, cheerfully gesturing, "Elder Cousin Pan’er, after you."
"After you, Eighth Prince."
Su Pan’er bid goodbye to Imperial Consort Hua before setting off to explore the vicinity of Meeting Peace Palace with Fei’er.
Although it was freezing outside and snow was gently falling, inside Meeting Peace Palace, it was warm as spring. The air was filled with a faint sandalwood scent, a fragrance diffused from top-grade incense.
Along the path near the grand hall, both sides were bordered by two types of vibrantly blossoming flowers. The delicate buds quivered gently in the snowy wind, continuously wafting a strong floral scent, that was refreshingly pleasant.
As they strolled forward along the path, through the cold winds and dancing snowflakes, Fei’er’s face was radiant with joy!
Enjoying the company of Su Pan’er by his side, he took a few jovial skips before sneakily winking at her.
"Sister Pan’er, did those people cause you any trouble after Uncle Ye Wu and I left?"
Su Pan’er knew who ’those people’ were that he was talking about: the Seventh and Eighth Masters who were still in Luoyan Village when Fei’er left.
How could they not have caused trouble?
Those people nearly cost her and Qin Yi their lives!
However, that was all in the past. Bringing it up now wouldn’t help anything, it would only worsen the guilt and concern Fei’er already felt. So, she decided not to mention it.
She lifted her eyes slightly, and smiled lightly, "It’s alright, all that’s in the past."
Fei’er’s countenance fell a little, but he recovered quickly and cheerfully sprinted a few steps ahead before abruptly turning back to gaze intently at Su Pan’er.
"Sister Pan’er, have no fear! My life was saved by you. No matter what happens in the future, I swear that I will ensure your lifelong safety, happiness, and prosperity! I won’t let anyone harm you, including myself! Or else, may I be condemned by heaven and earth!"
He took this vow with utmost solemnity, his eyes revealing an unprecedented seriousness and determination!
Su Pan’er was astounded!
It took her a moment to reach out and grab Fei’er’s hand.
"Little fool! Why would you swear like that? Oaths are not to be taken and dispensed lightly! Quickly take back your words!"
"No, I won’t withdraw it. Elder Cousin Pan’er, I’m serious!"
The eight-year-old boy stared at her with absolute determination, his eyes blazing with a persistent fire.
"Elder Cousin Pan’er, I regret not meeting you earlier in my life. Or rather, I regret being born too late. Otherwise, I would have definitely married you and made you my Primary Consort! But now, you are Brother Qin’s wife, and all I can do is offer you such a guarantee. This is my heartfelt promise, and you can choose to reject it! But, please don’t trample on it!"
His face turned red as he spoke, the tenseness of the situation clearly affecting him. He stared fixedly at her, not willing to miss a single expression on her face.
Su Pan’er couldn’t help but soften towards him as she looked at the serious boy. Suppressing a laugh, she wanted to reach out and pat his head, but when she sighted the purple golden crown on his head, she pulled her hand back.
In slight embarrassment, she pulled her hand back, forcing a smile, "You silly boy! How can we get married? We’re cousins! Stop fooling around!"
"I’m not fooling around!"
Fei’er, still looking disgruntled, removed the purple golden crown from his head and moved closer to her: "Elder Cousin Pan’er, I can still remember your scent even now. When I was in dire straits, you suddenly appeared in my life, bringing comfort just like my mother. I will remember that for a lifetime!"
"You silly..."
Su Pan’er laughed and instinctively reached out to tousle his hair, leaving it in a mess, just like she used to.
"You consider me your mother? Can I compare to your mother’s...her grace and elegance? What’s more, we are cousins, naturally we should support and take care of each other. Look at you, an eight-year-old boy, dreaming about these baseless things, asking for a beating, are you?"
Finishing her words, she pretended to slap him.
Originally, she wanted to ask if she was as old as Imperial Consort Hua, but changed her words midway.
But Fei’er, blushing, moved closer, "You can hit me if you want, Fei’er isn’t afraid. Dodging your hit wouldn’t be manly."
How could Su Pan’er bring herself to strike him?
After a momentary hesitation, she pinched his cheek forcefully, shook her head and said, "You little fool, at such a young age and you’re already talking about being a man. Come on! Let’s walk around a bit more, before your mom becomes impatient."
Saying that, she turned around and started walking.
His cheek was red from her pinch, but he felt a surge of joy, quickly followed by his face scrunching up in annoyance.
"What do you mean so young? I am going to grow up and will protect you when I’m capable of doing so!"
He reaffirmed his intentions.
"Alright, I can’t wait to see you protect me when you grow up!"
Su Pan’er burst out laughing, treating the whole declaration of love as a child’s play and agreed nonchalantly before turning back to survey the surrounding views, not letting any suspicious aspects escape her sight.
