“Stupid child!” The Blind Concubine revealed a smile which hadn’t been seen for a long time, “You are saying foolish things again.”
He held Xiao Bao’s hand, saying his heartfelt, “Master wants you to go out of here after all.”
Go to a far faraway place, never to come back.
“Master, don’t say those kinds of words again”, Xiao Bao lowered his head, “Wherever Master is, so is Xiao Bao, I will never leave your side.”
The Blind Concubine didn’t say anything anymore, just slightly laughed.
Once in a while he would say these two words “Stupid child.”
He was already dead, decayed and turned into dust, he could never have whatever he desired anymore.
He poured out all of his hopes and entrusted them onto this child, Xiao Bao.
If Xiao Bao could go out from the Palace, be free, he would also be free, without any regret.

Today Jue Yu came to visit him at the serving quarter. General Qi also tagged along.
The Blind Concubine’s mood had become better, he drank a small bowl of porridge.
Jue Yu told him: “This evening, I will set out to go home to my Pear Flowers Garden. Qi Sheng also will go home with me.”
The Blind Concubine wasn’t able to restrain his smile: “Then, congratulations.”
Jue Yu proudly lifted his face upwards, from his sleeve, he drew out the Deed of Slavery and fluttered it in the air, “Right now I am the Master, he is the slave, I told him to go home, he wouldn’t have the guts to disagree.”
Qi Sheng bent over to plant a kiss on Jue Yu’s face, then gently said: “Of course, I am all yours.”
Jue Yu said to Mu Yan: “We are leaving, you have to take care of yourself, the prescription that I gave you, take them on time on a daily basis, you may not skip even once.”
The Blind Concubine nodded his head: “You don’t have to worry.”
He suddenly grabbed Jue Yu’s hand, “I want to ask you a favor, you have to agree.”
Jue Yu asked: “What kind of favor?”
