Chapter 124: Chapter 124 Nanny Hua Sees the Fetus

"Click!"

The door was pushed open.

Hua Nanny shrank back in fright, wishing she could merge with the wall.

Chu Nanli walked in against the light and turned on the lamp in the room.

The room was instantly bright with light.

Hua Nanny quickly looked at the wall.

However, it was a blank expanse of white, with nothing there.

She then looked towards Chu Nanli, who had walked in.

The familiar clothes, the familiar hairstyle...

It was the very image she had just seen on the wall but couldn’t touch.

Hua Nanny was terrified and hurriedly kowtowed for mercy, "This old servant loyally serves Your Highness, swears to serve Your Highness unto death, begs Your Highness not to kill this old servant!"

Chu Nanli let out a light laugh.

To Hua Nanny’s ears, that laugh sounded like a ghost’s, so terrifying that she almost fainted on the spot.

Recalling what she had done to Chu Nanli in the past, she wept bitterly, raising her head to slap her own face, "Your Highness, this old servant deserves to die! This old servant deserves to die! This old servant realizes her mistakes; it was blindness that led me to mistreat Your Highness!"

The slapping was full of genuine feeling, causing her scant fleshed cheeks to swell from the blows.

Chu Nanli said nothing.

At such a moment, silent stillness was what made people feel most uneasy and fearful.

Hua Nanny had said everything, her speech becoming incoherent, with blood at the corners of her mouth.

Only then did Chu Nanli speak indifferently, "This palace is willing to believe that you might reform, but you certainly wouldn’t want to experience the pain of having your soul torn apart after betraying this palace."

Hua Nanny cried with snot and tears, her swollen old face looking particularly fierce, as she fervently guaranteed, "Dare not, dare not! This old servant will definitely not betray you."

Chu Nanli threw the food she had brought in front of her, "Eat, tidy yourself up, and clean the room. This palace gives you half an hour, in half an hour, come out and see me."

Hua Nanny was overjoyed but soon felt apprehensive again.

This was the first time she could leave the room since she had been locked up here, and she didn’t know if the outside world would be even more terrifying.

Chu Nanli didn’t care what Hua Nanny was thinking. After leaving, she went to the medicine crafting room to prepare medicines for the next batch to be auctioned at Xuanbao Pavilion.

Half an hour later, Chu Nanli had already finished crafting two furnaces of pills.

She got up and left the room, and saw Hua Nanny standing awkwardly not far away on an open space.

Chu Nanli walked over.

Hearing the noise, Hua Nanny trembled, turned her head, and saw it was Chu Nanli, and promptly knelt down again.

"Your Highness."

Chu Nanli said, "This is a small world entirely under my control."

Hearing this, Hua Nanny suddenly looked up, her eyes filled with a mix of awe and fear.

Chu Nanli thought to herself that this approach was indeed a better way to deter Hua Nanny.

"I don’t have much time to stay here all the time, and I need a servant to take care of the medicine fields in this small world and sort out the clutter."

"This old servant can! This old servant will definitely do a good job!"

Chu Nanli gave a noncommittal "Hmm" and said, "Get up and come with me to a place."

Hua Nanny complied, following her with trepidation.

Chu Nanli came to a room, pushed the door open, walked to the Breeding Box, and said, "Your most important task is to take care of him."

Hua Nanny looked up and saw the male infant resembling Ye Yunting in the Breeding Box, immediately getting so scared that she fell to the floor.

When Chu Nanli looked in her direction, she, still fearful, crawled back two steps.

"Your Highness, this... this is..."

Chu Nanli looked at her coldly, "This is one of the fetuses you lot had struck down from within me. Lin Fuying didn’t even need a live fetus for medicine. You had the maid secretly throw away my child, but I picked him back up and was able to save his life just in time by placing him in the device."

This revelation overwhelmed Hua Nanny, who looked petrified, then glanced at Chu Nanli’s belly.

"Still alive? There’s another one?"

"Hmm," Chu Nanli touched her own abdomen, "Another boy."

Hua Nanny was extremely agitated but did not dare to delay with her words.

"Congratulations, Your Highness! Luckily Your Highness is so powerful and didn’t lose the unicorn child because of this old servant’s mistake. This old servant will doubly cherish the young master to make up for the enormous mistake I’ve committed."

Chu Nanli warned again, "The reason why I dare let you look after the little prince is not because I have much trust in you, but because I am always in full control over everything in this world. In short, whatever you do, I know."

Hua Nanny turned pale and assured, "Your Highness, please rest assured, this old servant will certainly not entertain any improper thoughts."

Chu Nanli said nonchalantly, "Get up, I will teach you how to add the medicinal solution to the Breeding Box."

After teaching Hua Nanny how to take care of the infant and how to manage the medicine fields, Chu Nanli left the space.

It was very late and she was extremely tired. She lay down in bed and fell asleep shortly thereafter.

A night without dreams.
