All Chapters of Follow Me: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

As Lyuyou came with Tang Xia's cloak, she heard someone call for help faintly, hurried to check it out, and found that it was Tang Xia. After inhaling some water, Tang Xia flopped about in the river. When she was quite terrified, Tang Xia finally saw someone coming. "It is Lyuyou!" Tang Xia was so moved as the hope was reignited in her heart. So she shouted, "Lyuyou, help! Help me!" Lyuyou rushed to the water's edge hurriedly. "Your Grace, hang... hang on! I'll have someone help you soon." Lyuyou was so terrified that she went limp and fell to the main road. She shouted in a trembling voice, "Help! Someone! Help!" Seeing the palace lanterns at a short distance, Lyuyou knew there were many people and shouted in a trembling voice. "Someone! Help! The empress fell into the water!" Servants were attracted by Lyuyou's voice and all jumped into the water like dumplings into the pot. They saved Tang Xia fin

Lengmei was never so tactful. Even though Tang Xia suspected Zui Linglong's involvement in this plot, she had no evidence for the moment. If she went for Zui Linglong now, it was bound to be herself who was going to suffer losses. Should it happen, she would be countercharged by Zui Linglong and got embarrassed. Worse still, it would confirm the accusation that she was a devilish woman, and even Chu Tiankuo would be unable to save her under the pressure from the officials. "Let's go and pay Lengmei a visit. Let's see what tricks they are playing." "Zui Linglong is a calculating person and is not to be trifled with, but she made use of Lengmei, the greatest troublemaker. Now that they have called my bluff, I must get hold of some evidence to my advantage." When she arrived at Lengmei's chamber, Lengmei was having lunch with maids serving at her side. One of the maids accidentally dropped a cabbage leaf on her clothes. With her f

The old maid knelt on the floor on both knees, her fingers trembling slightly and her face turning pale. After a while, she slightly raised the edge of her lip, her body shivering, and said tentatively. "The altar... Your Grace, where did you learn about it?" The old maid's reaction aroused doubt and curiosity in Lengmei. She asked. "Nothing serious though. I just overheard it from the chat of several maids and felt confused, so I sent for you, and hopefully you should know about it." After hearing Lengmei's explanation, the old maid got less nervous than just now. She calmed down and replied. "It is not serious itself, but the name is not very pleasant. It has been a long time since it last happened." "There should not be anyone who knows about it now, and I was too surprised just now. Perhaps it was a young maid who overheard it somewhere, gossiped about it and disturbed you." Lengmei

"If you persist, I'll send for a doctor to check it." Lengmei panicked for she didn't expect Chu Tiankuo to be so serious about it. She knew he was getting to the bottom of it for Tang Xia's sake. She hurriedly made up an excuse. "Your Majesty, I might have caught a cold last night... I didn't feel like eating anything after I got up this morning, and I feel a dull ache in my head. I'm not in good condition... I can't see other people for now." She lifted her silk handkerchief to cover her lips and burst into a spasm of coughing. She frowned slightly, and her face turned pale, making her look more pitiable than Xi Shi. "Even better. The doctor can also cure your cold. Don't worry. I won't grudge drug expenses to you." Chu Tiankuo was in a real fury and wasn't moved by Lengmei's pity at all. His face was covered in formidable air and his words were full of taunts. "Send for the doctor!" At once, a eunuch standing o

That night, Lengmei dressed up and put up a delicate makeup. She put up the most gorgeous gown with a layer of gauze covering it. Her round and smooth shoulders were seen through the gown, and her bosom stood out, making her extremely lovable and charming. She looked at herself in the mirror and felt profoundly satisfied. Even if Chu Tiankuo wouldn't touch her, he should not treat her indifferently. She brought her personal maid who was holding the soup and arrived at the door of the imperial study. The eunuch on duty was about to stop her when he recalled Lengmei's recent activeness and realized it would be a bad idea to stand in her way. He then decided to go inside to remind Chu Tiankuo, but before he could move, Lengmei stopped him first. "Why are you escaping from me? Do I look like a beast in your eyes?" said Lengmei as she called back the eunuch who intended to leave and then walked in front of him. The eunuch bowed to L
