The Eunuch is Pregnant

Chapter 185: Lotus Flower Festival

Without the money, Le Yao Yao felt her heart sinking. It was as if the world was collapsing in front of her.

Oh God! Does this mean she’ll have to be a servant in Prince Rui’s residence for life? Her life was a true tragedy!

“Although the money is gone, in the future, if you need anything, count it towards the residence’s expense. You can eat or buy anything you want.” Leng Jun Yu calmly stated.

“What? Really?!”

Le Yao Yao was so astonished that her eyes were bulging. She realized that Leng Jun Yu had a tough mouth but soft heart.

“Prince Rui, servant has never told you that you are a super duper good good good good man!”

Leng Jun Yu smiled cunningly in response.

But the corner of Xing’s mouth twitched again.

Good person? Prince Rui?!

Uh….

Although Le Yao Yao was depressed about losing all of her money, she felt much better after Dongfang Bai and Leng Jun Yu’s statements. Perhaps she may have lost something, but she gained something else.

As the saying goes, “If you win in one aspect, you’ll lose in the other.” Thinking of this, she felt better.

After all, Le Yao Yao had always been very good at nursing her mental health.

Due to her injuries, the King of Hell purposely gave her a few days to rest. Le Yao Yao did not reject his kind offer since her body was green and purple. She didn’t realized how bad her injuries were until she inspected herself afterwards.

When Le Yao Yao realized she was beaten up so badly, she was furious. Luckily, Xing told her Prince Rui had taught those local gangsters a lesson.

Initially, she thought Prince Rui would’ve killed them.

“Kill?” Xing snickered, “That would be treating them too kindly. Now, they’re begging on the streets of the Capital. Prince Rui tore apart all their limbs. If they cannot beg enough money for food, someone will feed them to ensure they won’t starve to death. If they’re ill, they will be taken to the physician. Prince Rui wants them to live for a long, long time!”

Le Yao Yao was stunned. Wow, the King of Hell’s method was brilliant!

Since Dongfang Bai’s medical skills were godly, Le Yao Yao was almost back to 100% in just three days.

She was already able to get up and jump around. By lucky coincidence, today happened to be the Heaven Yuan dynasty’s yearly Lotus Flower Festival.

The Lotus Flower Festival was very exciting. Each year at this time, the West Lake would be filled with lotus flowers. They would cover the majority of the lake.

Many couples in love would come from near and far just to experience this lovely sight.

In addition, at night, everyone would light up lotus flower lanterns. The point was to write down your wish on the lanterns; then after lighting them up, allow the lanterns to drift on the water.

These are lotus flower lanterns! Sorry I forgot to insert the pic until now.

Sources say the further the lantern goes, the higher the chances of the wish coming true. Although it was only a folklore, many people still followed it. It was regarded as a refined activity of intellectuals.

When Le Yao Yao heard of this event, she decided to head to West Lake that night to participate as well. But before she could find Xiao Mu Zi to go with her, she encountered Leng Jun Yu. He had just returned from the Palace.

“Do you feel much better?” Leng Jun Yu paused his steps as he asked.

“Thank you for your care, Prince Rui. Servant feels much better now.”

The corners of Leng Jun Yu’s mouth curved upwards, “Then, come release the lotus lanterns with this Prince tonight.”

Then, Leng Jun Yu headed for his Study and left the stunned Le Yao Yao standing where she was.

“What?! Release lotus lanterns?”

The King of Hell enjoys this type of elegant and sappy activity?

When evening struck, Le Yao Yao deliberately changed into a regular male outfit to go to the festival with Leng Jun Yu. Originally, she thought it was only her and Prince Rui. But this year, the Emperor and the Dowager Empress decided to wear plain clothes to go about incognito. They wanted to stroll along the West Lake and experience the pleasure of the Lotus Flower Festival as locals.

Sources say that this was suggested by Nian Sulan. The Emperor and the Dowager Empress were both delighted.

However, since they were going incognito, they couldn’t bring too many people or it would arouse suspicion. So the Emperor only bought a few highly skilled Imperial guards and the King of Hell with him for safety concerns.

Nangong Jun Xi goes wherever there was excitement, so naturally, he was included. Since Nangong Jun Xi invited Dongfang Bai, Bai was also part of the group.

So now, on this eventful night, a group of powerful individuals headed towards the West Lake.

Both the Emperor and the Dowager Empress were dressed very casually. However, their noble aura could not be hidden. Anyone could tell that they weren’t regular citizens with one look.

The Dowager Empress was old, but her heart wasn’t. Nian Sulan was by her side holding onto her arm.

Along the way, Nian Sulan made many interesting and quirky comments to amuse the Dowager Empress. Behind them were four men with swords by their waists. It was obvious that they were highly trained.

Le Yao Yao was walking behind Leng Jun Yu. She was also dressed very plainly, but her face was definitely extraordinary and lovable.

In front of her, Leng Jun Yu was dressed somewhat casually but his handsome looks stood out amongst everyone else. Along the way, many young ladies were peeking or blatantly staring at him. Countless of flirtatious glances were thrown towards his direction. However, Leng Jun Yu remained unfazed. His face was frozen like always.

As for Nangong Jun Xi and Dongfang Bai, they were walking freely next to her. They were about to get their own lanterns before heading to the lake.

Since it was the festival, there were a lot more people than usual. In addition, everyone was holding onto a lotus lantern.

There were many stalls selling lotus lanterns. All shapes and sizes were available.

Le Yao Yao chose a very exquisitely designed lantern. There was a white spot for her to write down her wish.

The stall offered brushes and ink for customers to jot down their wishes onto their lanterns. In front of her, the Emperor began to write down his wish on his lantern.

Since Le Yao Yao was too far apart from the Emperor, she couldn’t see his wish. But throughout history, all Emperors wish peace and prosperity for his country. Or maybe, great weather for crops.

Le Yao Yao also decided to write down her wish on her lantern. What was her biggest wish right now?

Returning back to the 21st century seemed impossible. But this era was probably against her. She had lost her money twice already. If she could have any wish granted, it would be to find her missing money.

Thinking of this, Le Yao Yao picked up the brush and began to write down her wish. But Le Yao Yao had no idea that Leng Jun Yu was standing near her and saw her wish. When he read it, his eyes flickered.

Suddenly, Le Yao Yao saw a figure quickly approaching her and leaned his head in, “What’s your wish?”
