She suddenly realized that this was her own palace. Where could she go back to?
She turned around and looked at Long Jingchen with a frown, then said with difficulty, "Your Majesty, this is my palace."
Long Jingchen: ...
He looked around and realized that this was not his own Chengshun Palace.
He coughed twice and said, "I was too engrossed in my work. If you're sleepy, you should go and rest."
Consort Shen chuckled lightly: "Your Majesty, I am not sleepy. I will wait for Your Majesty."
Long Jingchen glanced at her and nodded: "Whatever you say."
After saying that, he continued to look down at his book.
Consort Shen raised her head and sat down next to Long Jingchen with a beaming smile, as if she had received some kind of favor. Seeing that Long Jingchen didn't say anything, she gradually grew bolder.
She rested her chin on her hands and stared at Long Jingchen for a while.
...
Jinghe Palace.
Sang Jiang and Chun He squatted behind a tree behind Jinghe Palace, watching Jinghe Palace's movements.
A moment later, another masked man in black flew in from outside.
He stopped at Sang Ruo's window and looked inside, not daring to make a move for a long time.
Sang Jiang was behind the window, so she couldn't see what he was looking at.
However, judging from his figure, it should be Nian Shihua, whom she met that day.
Inside Jinghe Palace.
Sang Ruo was reading a medical book by the window, the dim light casting a soft glow on her face.
As soon as Nian Shihua looked in her direction, she sensed it. Her hand holding the book paused slightly, and she quickly looked up, only to find a blank page.
Thinking she had misread it, she chuckled softly and asked Wanqing to close the window before continuing to look down at the book in her hands.
Seeing her movement, Nian Shihua quickly looked away. She was still so perceptive; she must have sensed his gaze just now.
Sang Jiang winked at Chun He.
Chunhe immediately flashed and flew towards Nian Shihua.
Upon hearing the commotion, Nian Shihua was startled and immediately slipped away.
The two quickly got into a physical fight.
Sang Jiang was almost ready to shout "Go! Go!" as she watched the two of them excitedly. In the end, Chunhe was no match for Nian Shi and escaped.
She chased after Nian Shihua all the way to Jingren Palace, after which he disappeared.
Chunhe carefully avoided the guards of Jingren Palace and quietly crouched on the Empress's roof.
After Lin Mama returned, she ordered Lin Mama to go find Nian Shihua, but he was not there.
The Empress was already furious with Sang Jiang and Sang Ruo, so Nian Shihua was undoubtedly walking into the line of fire.
The Empress chuckled as she looked at Nian Shihua: "Shihua, do you think I should still lock you up?"
Nian Shihua was startled and immediately knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, has this subordinate done anything to displease Your Majesty?"
The Emperor, his fingers adorned with bright red nail polish, spoke softly: "I sent you to monitor Sang Ruo, not to engage in romance."
Nian Shihua lowered his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, please understand. I have been monitoring Jinghe Palace for a long time. Moreover, she is now Consort Sang. I only hate her. If she hadn't insisted on entering the palace, I wouldn't be in this situation now."
"Is that so?" The Empress chuckled twice, then her smile vanished as she gritted her teeth and said, "Then, after all this time of surveillance, have you gotten any information?"
"Your subordinate is incompetent." Nian Shihua lowered his head even further and pursed his lips, saying, "That Consort Sang is too vigilant; your subordinate dares not approach her at all."
"Then what use are you to me?" The Empress's tone grew even colder.
