Chapter 236 You shouldn't use this to get rid of me
Cheng Jin and Chu Chengye didn't say anything. After all the noise, they felt tired.
Cheng Jin naturally rested her head on Chu Chengye's shoulder and talked to him casually.
"You are the emperor, why are you so petty?"
Chu Chengye held Cheng Jin's hand and gently pinched her fingertips. He didn't look at Cheng Jin, but answered very seriously.
"It's a joke. Although I am the emperor, I am also an ordinary person. Who can do better than me when seeing my wife running to live in someone else's house?"
Cheng Jin smiled and held Chu Chengye's hand in reverse. She held back her laughter, "Oh, then should I still praise you? Reward you something?"
Chu Chengye snorted lightly and turned his head away from Cheng Jin, as if he felt that Cheng Jin still blamed him wrongly.
Chu Chengye said calmly, "Who do you think I am? Are you using the same tricks you use to coax children on me?"
Cheng Jin casually reached out her hand, pretending to pull it out of Chu Chengye's hand, "Since you don't want it, forget it."
Chu Chengye, who just looked like he didn't care about anything, turned his head quickly and looked straight at Cheng Jin, tightly holding her hand that she was trying to pull away.
Chu Chengye said, "Don't exaggerate."
Chu Chengye spoke quickly and in a low voice, so Cheng Jin couldn't hear clearly.
Cheng Jin looked at Chu Chengye, who seemed to be waiting for something, with a puzzled look on her face, "What did you say?"
Chu Chengye glanced at Cheng Jin, as if he felt it was particularly awkward to say that he wanted a reward. It was always others who asked for rewards like him, and when had he ever been so humble as he was now.
Chu Chengye looked unhappy on the surface, but he was actually enjoying it. He was thinking about what reward Cheng Jin would give him, but he also felt embarrassed. Seeing
Chu Chengye's tangled expression, Cheng Jin instantly understood why Chu Chengye put on that expression.
She quietly pulled her hand out while Chu Chengye was absent-minded, raised her hand to lock Chu Chengye's neck, pressed down slightly, and gave Chu Chengye a solid kiss on the face.
Cheng Jin did not let go of Chu Chengye after the kiss, and continued to talk to Chu Chengye in this way.
Cheng Jin said, "It's a reward for you."
Chu Chengye couldn't get angry at such a rebellious remark. He looked back at Cheng Jin, "That's it?"
"You're too stingy."
"My knockers are well-known far and wide, and everyone knows it."
Cheng Jin realized Chu Chengye's intention and pushed Chu Chengye's face to prevent him from getting close.
"Then you shouldn't just use this to get rid of me."
"If you don't want it, come back!"
When the two of them were talking back and forth, Chu Chengye touched the itchy flesh on Cheng Jin's waist. Cheng Jin couldn't stop laughing, and couldn't even speak, and tried to hide somewhere else.
Chu Chengye saw that he had almost made fun of her, so he pulled her into his arms, "Okay, I won't make fun of you anymore, we're almost at the palace."
Cheng Jin's smile was still on his face, and he lifted the curtain to look at the scene outside.
She had been in and out of the palace many times, but she had never felt this way.
This time, Cheng Jin found that it was not the palace that trapped her, but her desire to escape.
She had always been afraid of Chu Chengye and the palace, so she always wanted to escape.
After Chu Chengye sent Cheng Jin back to Chunhe Palace, he turned around and went to Jingyang Palace.
Cheng Jin had just entered Chunhe Palace. In addition to the green bamboo and purple lilies that greeted her, the flowers in the yard attracted Cheng Jin's attention.
Cheng Jin asked in confusion, "Why are there so many flowers?"
Cuizhu hugged Cheng Jin into the house, and she smiled and said, "Many people know that the queen has worked hard for the people of Qingzhou this time. The former court
and the harem all praised the queen as a rare talent and a wise concubine." "Who doesn't know that the emperor only favors the queen in the harem, and everyone in the palace is rushing to curry favor with the queen. Look, all the items in our Chunhe Palace are sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
Cheng Jin couldn't laugh after hearing Cuizhu's words.
Her good relationship with Chu Chengye is not something that has only happened today. Why didn't these people show such good sense when Chu Chengye and Cheng Jin were so close on the surface? Why are they sending all the good things here now?
Cheng Jin was puzzled. He walked out of the door and looked at the terraces full of blooming flowers. He asked Cuizhu beside him, "Did the people from the Imperial Household Department send anything else besides these flowers? Besides the people from the Imperial Household Department, who else came?"
When Cuizhu heard Cheng Jin ask this, she told Cheng Jin everything that had happened before.
"The day the queen didn't come back, someone was trying to find out what was going on. I had never seen that palace maid, so I just casually dismissed her by saying that the queen had gone to rest. But I guess it was the queen dowager's people."
"The fifth prince was a good prince, but now he has become a wanted criminal. I'm sure the queen dowager can't accept it. I heard from people in the palace that the queen dowager goes to Jingyang Palace every day to meet the emperor and plead for the fifth prince."
"The fifth prince has committed such a serious crime, so the emperor naturally won't let him go. I heard that he has been using excuses to avoid
meeting the queen dowager these days." Cheng Jin asked, "Has the emperor never met the queen dowager?"
Cui Zhu shook her hair, "I just heard from people in the palace that I don't know the details."
"Yesterday, the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent things to our palace, including all kinds of fashionable things. However, I followed the instructions of the queen and was not allowed to accept anything brought by others. I kept what our palace deserved and returned the rest."
"They asked someone to move these flowers in when I was away. Ziying and I couldn't move them. The flowers looked particularly beautiful and the queen would like them, so we kept them for the time being."
Cuizhu hesitated and didn't dare to look at Cheng Jin. "If the queen doesn't like it, I will ask them to move it out."
Cheng Jin couldn't tell what she felt. Although she didn't think there was anything suspicious in what Cuizhu said, she always felt uncomfortable looking at these flowers. She
always felt that something was going to happen.
Cheng Jin nodded and ordered, "Have someone carry them out. These flowers are for people to enjoy. They are useless in Chunhe Palace."
After Cui Zhu agreed, she immediately asked someone to carry the large flowers out.
Cheng Jin felt better after seeing the flowers moved away. He didn't know what smell he smelled, but he left with a stuffy chest. Cheng Jin didn't stand there anymore and went to rest inside.
When Cheng Jin woke up, she didn't feel that bad, so she didn't take it to heart.
Just as she sat up, she saw Cui Zhu rushing over in a panic. She walked to Cheng Jin's bed and said, "My queen, it's bad. The Queen Mother and Lady Hui are both coming to Chunhe Palace."
Lady Hui?
Cheng Jin hadn't heard of this title for a long time.
Cheng Jin couldn't help but be a little confused. How could these two people come to her palace?
