The Queen Mother sneered and said, "Indeed, I really don't want Qiao Yuange to be the Queen, but Qiao Yuange is not someone who wants to take revenge on anyone, so it's not a bad thing for Qiao Yuange to be the Queen."
After the Queen Mother finished speaking, she just left.
Leaving Toffee here alone, she gritted her teeth and clenched her hands tightly.
Just at this moment, a maid came over, holding some porcelain cups and jewelry that Eunuch Li had brought from the warehouse.
After seeing these things, the concubine became even more furious and threw the rewards to the ground.
"What kind of bastard is this? How dare you throw him to me? This little emperor cannot be kept!"
The maid was so frightened that her legs went weak. She was about to kneel down and wanted to say something, but she held back.
The concubine said to the maid, "Tell the young master a message and ask him to come to the palace. He will understand what I mean."
After saying this, Concubine An coldly packed up her things and immediately returned to her own courtyard.
Seeing that the empress dowager and the concubine had left, Xiao Yun immediately turned around and took Qiao Yuange's hand with a smile.
But Qiao Yuange dodged and said to the emperor: "Can you be more calm? Why do you always pull me?"
Xiao Yun felt very aggrieved. He said to Qiao Yuange: "Oh, as long as I don't touch you, I will miss you, even if I just look at you."
Qiao Yuange got goosebumps all over his body after hearing what Xiao Yun said. He immediately said to him, "Alright, alright. Stop saying such cheesy things. You are the emperor, you should be aware of your status."
Xiao Yun naturally wanted to continue teasing Qiao Yuange, but he also knew that he had more important things to do.
With such a big incident happening in General Shu's mansion, of course, he had no time to deal with other matters, nor did he have time to take sides. It was not until three days later that Concubine Shu was sent to the palace in a sedan chair.
The person who came with him was General Huan.
Shu Fei was still wearing mourning clothes, and she looked haggard and emaciated.
After she came in, she first looked for Xiao Yun.
She knelt on the ground, her face pale, and lowered her head, and said to Xiao Yun: "Your Highness, I think you also know that Huan was also poisoned. I heard that you have a snake gall that can save him. Are you willing to bring this snake gall back to Huan?"
Huan originally thought that he was just escorting Shufei back to the imperial palace. How could he have imagined that Shufei already knew that he had been poisoned and was actually begging the emperor for mercy.
You know, when Huan found out that the emperor already knew Shu Fei's thoughts, he was scared to death, fearing that the emperor would stab him to death if he was unhappy.
After all, Shu Fei's attitude is that she is fearless, but Huan is afraid.
Before, Shu Fei had General Shu as her backer, but Huan had nothing.
Of course, Huan himself knew in his heart that he didn't like Shu Fei that much.
If he was willing to do anything to be with Shu Fei like Shu Fei, then he would not be so passive.
This time, Huan quickly said to Shu Fei: "Madam Shu Fei, I really don't need it..."
After Huan said this, his eyes flashed, as if he knew that he seemed unable to refuse the emperor's help at this moment.
There is no way he would survive if poisoned. With the precedent of General Shu, it would be impossible for him to act tough and prove that he did not need the emperor's help.
In the end, he didn't say it so decisively.
The emperor sat on the chair with a dull expression on his face, as if he didn't care about Shu Fei's request.
Then the emperor said to Concubine Shu: "General Huan is a very important resource to me. I had a very good relationship with General Huan before. I can't just watch General Huan die."
The moment Xiao Yun said this, his heart suddenly sank, and he said in a cold voice: "But isn't your Shu Fei a little too arrogant now? Why do you keep provoking me?"
"I did say that you can have a private meeting with General Huan, but you can't openly contact General Huan in front of me, right? Besides, don't forget that I had a requirement when I asked you to contact General Huan, and you haven't fulfilled this requirement at all!"
Shu Fei was naturally guilty. She lowered her head and didn't know what to say.
But Huan was very confused. Was he sold out by Concubine Shu? Why did the emperor and Concubine Shu seem to have an agreement, and this agreement was about him? But he knew nothing about it.
Does Shu Fei hope to be with General Huan?
No, General Huan naturally felt sorry for Shu Fei, but he had never thought about being with Shu Fei for the rest of his life.
It's not impossible for them to be together, but Shu Fei is already the emperor's woman.
Even if Huan is not as good as the emperor, he won't pick up women that the emperor doesn't want, right?
Shu Fei thought for a moment and said, "But my father is now dead. Your Highness, can you please be more kind to me for this reason?"
Xiao Yun said to Shu Fei in a somewhat strange tone: "Shu Fei, on the one hand, you hope that I can help your father to take revenge, on the other hand, you hope to be with General Huan, and on the other hand, you don't want to help me do things. Do you think I like you very much? I can satisfy you in everything?"
Shu Fei finally raised her eyes at this time and said to Xiao Yun: "How could I possibly think of the emperor like this? Could it be that I don't know who the emperor likes?"
After Shu Fei finished speaking, she looked at Qiao Yuange who was standing respectfully beside her.
The clothes that Qiao Yuange was wearing at this moment were made of extremely high-quality material, even as luxurious as those worn by the concubines in their harem.
However, Qiao Yuange's clothes don't have that many patterns and styles, and are obviously more plain and low-key.
Of course, Qiao Yuange also felt Shu Fei's gaze, and for a moment he didn't know what expression he should use.
Qiao Yuange could naturally see the emperor's favor towards her these days, and she was moved. She was also considering whether she wanted to be with the emperor.
After all, Qiao Yuange is not a shameless person, and he also has to think about the relationship between the late emperor and his father.
What exactly does she want? Is it her own happiness, to revive the Qiao family, or to clear her father's name?
When all these problems arose, Qiao Yuange felt that it was time for him to spend more time thinking about this matter.
"Since you know it very well, then don't make these requests. Think carefully about what you can do for me and why I should help you?" The emperor supported his head with one hand and looked at Shu Fei with some impatience.
