The Emperor Xiao San's Little Concubine

Chapter 49: The Redemption of Eunuch Li

The prince brought along porridge and medicine to recover the body of the little concubine. Prince Xiao San gently greeted the small concubine who was still weak. The prince warmly took care of his little concubine. As long as some princes diligently took care of her little concubine, she refused Chen Yi's help wanting to help her.

After a few days of treatment, the little concubine finally recovered well. He was able to walk around his hiding place. Until he finally met with eunuch Li. Seeing the figure of eunuch Li in front of him, the little concubine revealed a look of vengeful face. Unknowingly full of anger, he tried to attack Eunuch Li. A secret weapon was thrown towards the eunuch Li, but eunuch Li did not dodge and only accepted the weapon about him. His stomach was pierced by that weapon and spat out a lot of blood.

"Lift father.." cried Chen Yi as he looked at the fallen and wounded eunuch Li.

"Teacher why did you hurt foster father?" chen Yi asked in a slightly angry tone.

The little concubine was still a thousand languages silent and only saw when Chen Yi brought eunuch Li. There was a battle of feelings in the heart of the little concubine. He was unable to control his anger when he saw Eunuch Li but he was helpless when he saw eunuch Li being injured by him. Prince Xiao San who heard the incident immediately ran over to his little concubine. She perfectly understood his feelings, the little concubine still vividly remembered his dark past two years ago.

"Little concubine come with me." take the prince gently.

The little concubine said nothing. He simply kept silent and followed the prince Xiao San who was holding him. The prince took her into the room and tried to calm her down. He gave her warm tea to clear the mind of the little concubine. Feeling the sadness harbored by his wife, he tried to hug the little concubine. He patted his back, to calm his mind.

"Little concubine looks me in the eye." said the prince softly.

The little concubine looked at him blankly. The little concubine is now in a heart fight.

"Little concubine listen to me." said the prince softly.

The prince started telling me all the truth that happened over the past two years. Every truth he knew was told in detail to the little concubine. At first the little concubine only showed a flat face with a blank look. But the more the prince told him, the expression on his face began to change. Sometimes he cried when he learned of the suffering experienced by emperor Xiao Ge and eunuch Li but sometimes he was angry like a demon when he learned of the savagery and cunning plans of princess Ye Xiwu and her father.

"Shoppers." said the little concubine with a scary face.

The little concubine clenched her hand and she used that hand to hit hard a large rock in front of her. The stone was destroyed instantly due to the huge energy released by the small concubine. The prince could only watch over the little concubine who was losing control. From between his fingers flowed fresh blood from the punch. Prince Xiao San could only wait until his anger subsided.

"Have you forgiven Eunuch Li?" the prince asked his little concubine gently

Hearing the name of eunuch Li, the little concubine cried. He regretted injuring eunuch Li who had been regarded as his father. He galloped towards Li's eunuch room. Arriving there, he saw Chen Yi who was bandaging Li's eunuch wounds. The little concubine came up to him and held his hand

"Why don't you dodge my eunuch Li's attack?" ask the little concubine full of regrets.

"Hm, I regard this anger of yours as atonement for the deeds of the servant that have made you suffer" said eunuch Li calmly.

"I'm sorry for not being dutiful eunuch Li." said the little concubine holding his hand.

The little concubine sobbed with regret. He felt very guilty for having attacked Eunuch Li. He regretted having doubted the loyalty of Eunuch Li. The little concubine was getting uncontrollable, she was screaming and crying. He cried like a child to his father.

"That's it. Servant is fine." said eunuch Li trying to calm him down.

"Hm, my daughter is still very spoiled" said eunuch Li softly.

Little concubine Xixi and prince Xiao San left Li's eunuch room. They allowed eunuch Li to rest. Eunuch Li fell into a deep sleep.

"How's eunuch Li doing?" ask the worried little concubine.

"Hm, actually the state of foster father is not okay. Actually foster father is struggling to hold the poison" Chen Yi said.

"What's? The poison? How come?" the prince and the little concubine said simultaneously.

"Actually after finding the emperor Xiao Ge who was already stretched stiff. The foster father did not believe that it was a case of suicide. Then secretly, he took a sample of the emperor's blood. He spent months researching that blood sample and figuring out what poison it was. It turned out that the poison touched by the adoptive father had an impact on his health. The body of the adoptive father was exposed to the same poison because of that research. Now the foster father only has a little time" Chen Yi said softly and cried.

"Why did eunuch Li do all that?" ask the little concubine.

"He said that everything he did was atonement for his guilt and sin. Perhaps this penetration, made him not ashamed when he met the emperor Xiao Ge there" Chen Yi said sadly.

The little concubine came back crying with the truth. The crying did not stop. His heart is so sorry. The prince who heard the truth was getting angry. He could not wait to get his revenge.

"I won't let them stay on top forever" said the prince with a scary facial expression.

The unlikely little concubine could cure eunuch Li, only able to make up for her mistake by taking care of eunuch Li until her last day. For weeks the little concubine took care of him warmly. He poured out all his affection for Eunuch Li. He hoped that this short time, was able to give happiness to eunuch Li.

"My daughter.." call eunuch Li gently.

"I'm here dad." said the little concubine holding his hand.

"This is my last redemption. I hope this will help you." said eunuch Li slowly.

After giving a note, eunuch Li gave a small smile and closed his eyes. His hand that was holding the little concubine finally came off. The last breath stopped. The little concubine who saw that ended up crying loudly.

"Dad, I'm sorry.. Forgive me.." cried the little concubine while hugging Eunuch Li tightly.

"Dad, forgive your unfilial daughter" said the little concubine and continued to hug eunuch Li.
