"Or is it that you never trusted me, which is why you went and spoke ill of me to the Imperial Concubine?" He was wholeheartedly planning for Consort He, and everything he did was for her. If Consort He believed that he would not harm her, why would she not be able to resist telling the Imperial Concubine those things?

If doubt and suspicion are present in a love affair, what is its purity? Emperor Hui looked at Consort He, who was struggling to hold him on the ground, her elegant and refined face raised, and suddenly smiled, saying softly, "How could this be?!" The woman he loved did not believe that he loved her!

She didn't believe in his heart!

Consort He completely broke Emperor Hui's heart.

What a waste of true love!

Enraged, he grabbed Consort He's delicate neck and pinched her hard with fierce eyes.

Consort He was unwilling to die like this, and she struggled on the ground. Just as she felt suffocating, she fumbled around with her hands and touched something cold. She didn't know what it was, but she stabbed it into Emperor Hui's body with all her might!

Emperor Hui let out a scream, blood splattered, and in the blink of an eye, blood was gushing from his shoulder. He stared in disbelief at the sharp shards of porcelain on his shoulder, then looked at Consort He with wide eyes.

"You want me dead?!" He had never suffered such an injury before and was almost shocked.

"Your Majesty, I didn't!" It turned out that this was the porcelain that had been smashed when Emperor Hui dragged her to the ground. Consort He no longer intended to hurt Emperor Hui. Assassinating the emperor was a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of one's family. Although Consort He's family was just an ordinary household, the extermination of three generations of one's family would still be quite a blow.

Tears streamed down her face as her frail body trembled with fear on the ground. Just as she was about to point to her own neck and protest, Emperor Hui, without uttering a word, swept his cold gaze over her. His eyes regained their clarity, but then he turned away from her and left.

He came and went like the wind, and did not punish anyone. Consort He felt relieved for a moment, but then she couldn't help but feel uneasy again.

She naturally had no idea that Emperor Hui felt his last bit of affection had been shattered by this fatal shard of porcelain. Nor did she know that after leaving her palace, Emperor Hui, touching the wound on his shoulder, ignored everything and, disregarding the panic of the eunuchs around him, headed straight for Shen Wangshu's palace.

He stumbled and staggered, pitifully and weakly rushing to Shen Wangshu's palace, only to find that Ah Xuan was not there. The vast, luxurious palace, which housed the most magnificent things in the world, was completely silent. Emperor Hui walked through this familiar palace, which he frequented every day, and felt that this was the place he knew best.

His shoulder was aching terribly, but he endured it and staggered into the palace, where he saw Shen Wangshu holding a bowl of tea, listening to a young palace maid talking beside him.

He saw that her face was serene and never showed any sadness, and tears welled up in his eyes.

He has a somewhat feminine temperament and is inherently gentle.

"Your Majesty?" Shen Wangshu didn't care how Emperor Hui died. He frowned when he saw that Emperor Hui had returned.

"I...I have nowhere to go," Emperor Hui said, somewhat bewildered.

He truly had nowhere where he could feel at peace.

Let's not talk about Consort He. The harem is so big, but among all the concubines, only the Noble Consort is truly devoted to him, cherishes him more than her own life, and can protect him.

"It hurts so much." His heart ached so much that he could hardly breathe. He clutched his shoulder and carefully walked towards the first time. The Consort, who was crying but didn't even raise her eyebrows, casually glanced at his slender, fair hands with her beautiful eyes. He finally understood what he had lost, but he was unwilling to lose it like that. He tried to exchange his wretchedness and pitifulness for the Consort's past feelings for him.

As long as there were feelings, they existed, and things will always return to normal, right? Emperor Hui's eyes were filled with hope.

"I am not a royal physician. If Your Majesty is in pain, you should summon the royal physician." Shen Wangshu had already broken ties with Emperor Hui, so she naturally would not bother with him anymore. She waved her hand, and the guards left by Ah Xuan stood in front of her to protect her.

She had to admit that the reason she dared to speak so coldly to Emperor Hui was entirely because Ah Xuan was backing her up.

If the regent, who could even suppress the emperor, wasn't Ah Xuan, would she really dare to be so unrestrained towards him?

If it were a previous reincarnation, she would have used even more elaborate schemes to deal with these two.

"Imperial Physician?" The Imperial Concubine's coldness was so extreme that Emperor Hui's eyes welled up with tears. He looked at the Imperial Concubine, who was only three feet away from him, but was blocked by many guards, and could only barely see a swaying figure of her.

Hearing the Imperial Concubine's utter ruthlessness towards him, he suddenly cried out, "Consort He was lying to you!" He seemed to see the Imperial Concubine's upturned, bright eyes looking at him with disdain, but he couldn't care less. He clutched his clothes and said sadly, "You are not someone who has no place in my heart."

Shen Wangshu didn't even have the strength to slap him; she felt he was utterly filthy, and even touching him would dirty her hands.

"Ah Xuan, Ah Xuan is lying to you!" Emperor Hui said to himself.

He looked at Shen Wangshu with urgent eyes, his breathing becoming much more labored, but he still spoke hurriedly, "He's trying to ruin me, to put you to death, he's deceiving you! Have you forgotten how much he used to hate you? If he hated you before, how could he possibly like you now? He's just trying to make a fool of me before dealing with you!"

The more he thought about it, the more he realized it made sense. His eyes lit up as he looked earnestly at his concubine not far away, his gaze unconsciously pleading, as if he were waiting for her not to hurt him so much.
