Chapter 123: Burnt Skin



Concubine Shu walked in.

Emperor Jianxi was reading a memorial. When he saw her come in, he raised his eyes, then frowned and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Concubine Shu forced a smile. She had never been liked by Emperor Jianxi, but he was her husband after all. She had never been loved by him, and it was difficult for her to stay alone in her room all night, which made her melancholy for a long time.

He was also jealous of Queen Hyomin, who was so favored that his teeth were itching.

But now...

That bitch Xiaomin actually cheated on Emperor Jianxi. If Emperor Jianxi knew that his beloved Empress Xiaomin was unfaithful to him... Chengqian, whom he had loved for many years, was nothing but a lowly bastard...

hehe……

"I heard that Your Majesty was unwell, so I specially made you a bowl of pork belly, bird's nest, ginseng, deer antler, red dates, snow clam, lily, shredded ginger, lotus leaf, yam, rose, shrimp, sea cucumber and barley soup. Please try it." As she said this, Concubine Shu placed the bowl of soup next to Emperor Jianxi and stood beside him.

Emperor Jianxi listened to Concubine Shu's "listening of the dishes" and couldn't help but be curious. He took a look into the bowl and suddenly his eyes went dark.

Then he waved his hand and said, "I'm full at noon."

Concubine Shu: ...

Concubine Shu forced a smile and said, "I heard that Your Majesty has a little backache. I just learned a set of massage techniques from the Imperial Hospital's doctor. Can I help you with it?"

As she spoke, Concubine Shu's hand had already reached out to Emperor Jianxi, wanting to lift his clothes. However, Emperor Jianxi was quicker than her. He leaned over, covered his waist with one hand, and repeatedly said, "No, no! I'm almost well."

Concubine Shu laughed and said, "Your Majesty, please don't refuse. I will help you massage it!"

"Need not!"

"Your Majesty, do you dislike me?"

There was a hint of impatience between Emperor Jianxi's brows, and he and Concubine Shu both expressed their refusal at the same time.

"You dare to press my hand with your shabby skills? Do you think I'm your trainee?"

The emperor was so angry that Concubine Shu immediately knelt down in fear.

She said timidly, "I dare not!"

Emperor Jianxi was too lazy to talk nonsense with Concubine Shu and waved his hand at her, "You can leave!"

"By the way, take your bowl of porridge with you!"

Concubine Shu felt extremely aggrieved, "Your Majesty, this is soup..."

Emperor Jianxi ignored her and picked up the memorial to continue reading.

Concubine Shu was secretly anxious. How could he leave like this when her business was not yet completed?

Concubine Shu was holding the bowl of soup and thinking about something. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and then she cried out "ouch", and her body leaned towards Emperor Jianxi, and poured the bowl of soup on his waist.

Emperor Jianxi hissed, stood up and glared at Concubine Shu.

Concubine Shu pretended to be panic-stricken and knelt down to apologize, "Your Majesty, please forgive me! I didn't mean it!"

The soup was so hot that it had burned through the dragon robe and reached Emperor Jianxi. Emperor Jianxi glared at Concubine Shu with gritted teeth and shouted, "Wu Yonggui!"

As he spoke, he tore at his clothes.

Seeing this, Concubine Shu hurried over and said, "Let me help you take it off!"

At this time, Wu Yonggui also came in. Seeing this, he cried out in pain, then stepped forward and helped Concubine Shu change Emperor Jianxi's clothes.

Concubine Shu stared at the waist of Emperor Jianxi until he opened his inner garment and took it off... Wu Yonggui hurriedly put the clean inner garment on Emperor Jianxi.

In just a moment, Concubine Shu glanced at him and then looked away.

My heart started beating wildly, almost jumping out of my throat!

There was indeed a crescent-shaped birthmark on Emperor Jianxi’s fat waist!

Exactly the same as Huai'an's!

So, Huai'an's words are true... Cheng Qian is really not Emperor Jianxi's biological daughter...

Ahhhhhhhhhh!

Concubine Shu was so excited that she wanted to scream out loud. Is she finally going to get through this?

She had worked hard for many years and had become quite famous. The throne of empress had been vacant for many years, and there were occasional calls in the court to make her empress, but Emperor Jianxi was partial to Empress Xiaomin and was unwilling to appoint another empress.

If Queen Hyomin falls...

Then her position as queen...

After Emperor Jianxi changed his clothes, he turned around and saw Concubine Shu's excited and bright eyes. The anger that he had suppressed rose up again in an instant.

Originally, because Ziyin had been seriously ill for many days, Shufei's grandmother must have had a hard time, so he spared her.

But what happened to her?

Looks very happy?

Huh...

Emperor Jianxi said coldly, "Shufei, you are very proud of having burned me, aren't you? I wanted to forgive you, but you are really rude!"

"Look at the soup you cooked. It's like slop. Are you feeding me like a pig?"

Concubine Shu was startled by the scolding. She was still in a dream and saw the stern face of Emperor Jianxi in front of her.

She stammered and was speechless.

Emperor Jianxi grew increasingly angry, pointing at Concubine Shu and sternly shouting, "Order the Imperial Kitchen to prepare a pot of soup according to Concubine Shu's recipe, and have her drink it right before their eyes!"

"Your Majesty...I didn't mean to do that..."

Emperor Jianxi had heard this so many times that he was already impatient. "As for you, get out of here! You are not allowed to enter the Yangxin Palace without my order!"

"His Majesty!"

Concubine Shu was stunned.

She was not favored to begin with, and she didn't expect to be punished again...

The emperor ordered her to leave. Even though Shufei was full of grievances, she did not dare to stay any longer. However, she convinced herself that temporary honor and disgrace were not important. Once Emperor Jianxi learned the truth, her good days would come.

Concubine Shu stood up and said, "Then I will take my leave!"

After saying that, he left in shame.

Wu Yonggui looked at Concubine Shu's back, sighed secretly, then turned back to Emperor Jianxi and said, "Your Majesty's waist has been really bad recently. First, it was burned by Princess Chengqian, and not long after, it was burned by Concubine Shu... This Concubine Shu is also like this. She is getting more and more unstable as she gets older. Your Majesty, can this servant bring you some medicine to rub it on?"

Wu Yonggui was the close lackey of Emperor Jianxi, holding the same rank as the Vice Empress. Not to mention the Concubine Shu who had half a foot in the cold palace, even the Concubine Rong who had a high status and a powerful family had to give him some face. Therefore, his words of blame for Concubine Shu did not arouse the disgust of Emperor Jianxi.

Emperor Jianxi, on the other hand, agreed in his heart.

Thinking about how he got this injury, Emperor Jianxi felt both annoyed and helpless.

Last month, Cheng Qian brought her little Yue'er to see him. He happened to have a backache, and the imperial physician was about to give him a cupping treatment. Cheng Qian, the wicked child, was amused by this. She was already a mother of five children, but she even begged him to try it...

He refused, and Xiao Yueer immediately had tears in her eyes and looked at him eagerly... It was all his fault for being soft-hearted for a moment!

What a big mistake!

The last time Shifan came to the palace to see him, he kept rubbing his waist. It was said that he sprained his waist when he was ridden like a horse by this little kid.

What hatred and grudge?

Can anyone touch the old man's waist?

Cheng Qian held the lit bamboo cup in one hand, and under the guidance of the imperial physician, he still burned his waist.

What a big scar...the skin is all burnt and peeling!

Who is he?

He is the true dragon emperor!

His flesh is dragon flesh, his skin is dragon skin, his precious body is a dragon body!!!

How dare she burn his dragon body?

Not to mention that he is the emperor, even as her biological father, how could she bear it? ! !

Afterwards, she had the nerve to ask him not to spread the story... She didn't want to be known as a regicide and a patricide...

Children are a sin!
