Chapter 916 - 918 Zhenbao Pavilion (2)
Thousands of miles away, in Harahai Town,
in a house whose doors were tightly shut, Helana, after several days of recuperation, could now eat by herself. She recovered quickly and wanted to recover as soon as possible to return to the Xianbei Empire and tell her Imperial Father and Imperial Mother so their officials could punish those who had bullied her one by one!
Cai Ping came in with a bowl of well-simmered ginseng soup, speaking softly, "Princess, the ginseng soup is ready. Please drink it while it’s hot; it’s good for your health!"
Helana glanced sideways at her and then lowered her eyes, saying, "Bring it here!"
Her two Guards were controlled by Tuoba Kui, and now she was like a bird with broken wings, devoid of any ability to resist. Therefore, she could only obediently follow orders, waiting for an opportunity to make a move; otherwise, she would definitely suffer.
Helana obediently drank the bowl of ginseng soup and handed the bowl back to Cai Ping.
Cai Ping took the bowl but did not leave; she just stood before the couch and stared intently at Helana.
Helana lay down, closed her eyes, and ignored her. Although she resented this servant’s insolence, as a person under another’s roof, she could only turn a blind eye.
"Princess, are you asleep?" Cai Ping asked cautiously.
Unwilling to deal with her, Helana kept her eyes shut, pretending to be asleep.
Seeing this, Cai Ping turned around and called outside the house, "Come in now; she’s asleep!"
As soon as she finished speaking, several women dressed as Meng slaves entered, holding knives, scissors, needles, threads, and gauze.
