Chapter 397 - 12.5
Meilan’s hand trembled as she served the food in front of her Master, Bai Yunyu. After the disastrous night with Emperor Xianliang storming off the Cold Palace, the Emperor severely punished Empress Xiuying, Bai Yunyu.
Emperor Xianliang rationed the food for Master Bai the next day, with Master Bai only getting a bowl of rice and a block of tofu as his lunch. At the same time, he was not served breakfast, and for his dinner... Emperor Xianliang only gave him a boiled fish and a glass of water.
There was no tonic, no soup, and the rice was probably yesterday’s rice since it smelled a bit funny.
This was even worse than the food served for the prisoners!
Meilan’s hand trembled even more when she put the food down. Meanwhile, Bai Yunyu only smiled and picked the chopstick. It had been the fifth days since he ate the same thing, a bowl of yesterday’s rice and tofu.
But Bai Yunyu didn’t complain, even though Meilan knew that her master was so weak right now. Of course, even Meilan got to eat something better than her own master!
Meilan trembled as she tried hard not to cry when she saw how Master Bai’s hand trembled as he tried to hold the bowl.
His body was too weak that holding a bowl was already an arduous task for him. This was not the same Master Bai that she met for the first time. Master Bai was an amazing young ger man! Although he is a ger, he had the strength of a martial artist! He was intelligent and capable of both studying and fighting!
He was so beautiful and popular that many men were trying to court him. Even some women were falling in love with him.
But he rejected them all because he wanted to focus on his study and training rather than chasing romance...
Until he met with the Seventh Prince, Huang Shu. Huang Shu was the most handsome, gallant, and heroic Princes compared to his other eight brothers. The two met in a spring festival when Huang Shu attended a spring festival in the city and met a man who performed an extraordinary dance with the flame snake.
