Shufei was pushed away, and a look of surprise flashed across her face.
According to the Queen Mother, men who smell this incense will definitely be addicted, and if she appears at this time, she will definitely be favored.
However, the emperor in front of him had a calm expression, and he looked at him with the same eyes as usual, without any sign of addiction, and even his strength was the same.
What's going on?
Puzzled, she sniffed the air, and the scent of incense was strong.
She deliberately lit a lot of incense, just to increase the dosage, hit the target in one go, and make the emperor even more addicted.
But why didn't the emperor react at all after standing here for such a long time?
"Shufei, as a concubine, how can you dress like this?!" Xiao Shengxing looked at Shufei with an imposing manner.
Concubine Shu glanced at her attire and tried to put in some effort. She said with a seductive look, "Your Majesty, don't you like me like this? I dress like this for your Majesty. Your Majesty works hard on state affairs day and night, and I just want to help you relieve the pressure."
As she spoke, she moved closer to Xiao Shengxing, swaying her waist in a very seductive and alluring manner.
However, this scene made Xiao Shengxing's brows furrow even deeper.
He now understood that the Queen Mother's so-called request for him to come and see the prince was just a cover.
I'm afraid the real purpose is to let Concubine Shu come to flatter.
Xiao Shengxing smelled the pungent incense in the air, and felt an indescribable strangeness in his chest. He frowned, as there seemed to be something wrong with the incense.
But he didn't show it on his face. Instead, he said with dignity, "Shu Fei, if you don't understand the etiquette of the concubines in the harem, I can ask the steward Momo to come and teach you properly."
These words immediately stopped Concubine Shu in her tracks. The seductive charm on her face gradually faded, replaced by an unwilling look.
She cursed in her heart, the old witch, the Queen Mother, the incense she gave was useless!
It was that old witch who exaggerated so much, saying that the late emperor had used it and it was very useful, that she actually believed it and that’s why what happened today happened!
Concubine Shu gritted her teeth. She had delayed for so long, but the medicine hadn't taken any effect at all!
This incense is completely useless except for making people feel uncomfortable!
Thinking of what Xiao Shengxing had just said, she immediately put away her expression and felt uneasy. She was almost punished by the emperor. If she was really taught a lesson by the nanny this time, it would be more trouble than it would take.
"I dare not."
The two were talking on this end and didn't pay attention to what was happening on the other side.
On the other side, the baby in the cradle had a frown on his face. The strong incense kept choking his throat, but he had no strength to cough. His whole face turned purple and he couldn't even make a sound.
As the air intake became less and less, the struggling movements became slower and slower, and eventually he suffocated to death.
Concubine Shu wanted to say something, but Xiao Shengxing snorted coldly, frowned, and walked away.
Looking at Xiao Shengxing's back without hesitation, Concubine Shu stamped her feet in shame and anger.
…
Su Lijin, holding the picked flowers in her hands, walked towards Kunning Palace accompanied by palace maids.
When she passed by the imperial study, she paused: "Zhao Heng?"
Outside the imperial study, Zhao Heng, dressed in the imperial guards' court robes, was frowning and talking to the young eunuch in the imperial study.
"I really have something to ask the emperor, so please inform him, eunuch." Zhao Heng said.
The eunuch said with a cold expression, "The Emperor is not in the Imperial Study. Sir Zhao, please return."
Su Lijin raised her eyebrows. Xiao Shengxing is not in the imperial study?
She was a little confused. According to common practice, Xiao Shengxing should be handling government affairs in the imperial study at this time.
If he is not in the imperial study at this time, where would he go?
Hearing this, she stopped completely.
At the door of the imperial study, Zhao Heng showed no intention of leaving. It seemed that he really had something to report and was waiting for the emperor to deal with it.
"Then, eunuch, could you please tell us where the emperor has gone? How long will he take to come back?" Zhao Heng asked. It sounded as if he had to wait here.
The eunuch glanced at the other end of the palace and said, "Look, the emperor has gone over there."
Su Lijin looked up and was slightly surprised: "That's the direction of Yikun Palace. Could it be that the emperor went to Yikun Palace?"
Thinking of the Concubine Shu in Yiku Palace, Su Lijin couldn't help but feel strange.
Could it be that the Emperor went to see Concubine Shu?
The eunuch continued, "The emperor has gone to the Yikun Palace."
Zhao Heng said, "Then could you please inform the emperor that I am waiting for him in the imperial study?"
Upon hearing this, the eunuch directly refused: "It's not that I don't want to report it, it's that I have no way to report it."
"What does this mean, eunuch?" Zhao Heng was stunned.
Su Lijin raised her eyebrows slightly. Did Xiao Shengxing really go to Yikun Palace?
Looking at Zhao Heng, the eunuch said, "The Empress Dowager has issued an order that no one is allowed to disturb the Emperor and His Majesty the Consort. If I were to report this, wouldn't that be disobeying the Empress Dowager's order?"
"The Queen Mother's order?" Zhao Heng frowned suddenly.
Su Lijin, who had been listening to the conversation between the two, had a flash of anger on her face that she herself was not aware of.
The Queen Mother actually gave such an order?
Thinking of the hidden meaning behind this order, Su Lijin pursed her beautiful lips: "Your Majesty and Concubine Shu, could it be..."
"What should I do? I have something to report." Zhao Heng was a little anxious.
"Master Zhao, I will take you to see the Emperor."
When Su Lijin's voice rang out, Zhao Heng turned around and immediately said in surprise, "Your Majesty, will you take me with you?"
Nodding, Su Lijin glanced at the eunuch and took Zhao Heng directly to Yiku Palace.
The two came to the Yiku Palace, but found that there were relatively few palace servants in the Yiku Palace.
"Your Majesty, Lord Zhao requests an audience. Are you free?" Su Lijin shouted as she walked towards the bedroom.
