vomit--
The thought that she had actually had physical intimacy with the imposter made Luo Pianhong gag again.
Recalling how she had taken the initiative to lean into Ye Aojun's arms, even letting him carry her to his room, where he had grabbed her hand, and finally, how she had willingly thrown herself into his embrace...
Ugh, that's really disgusting.
Instantly, she felt itchy all over and wished she could find a place to wash herself properly.
It's so disgusting, I feel like I'm dirty.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?"
Song Yanran stepped forward and gently patted Luo Pianhong's back.
Luo Pianhong shook her head, stood up and asked again, "Sister, is what you said true? That person really isn't Shen Zhao?"
Song Yanran: "The person I share a pillow with, do you think I can't recognize him?"
At this point, Song Yanran pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked, "By the way, how did you obtain this image-recording stone?"
I can smell a faint, familiar scent lingering on it. Was it from Shen Zhao?
"No."
Luo Pianhong immediately shook her head in denial.
“If that person wasn’t Shen Zhao, then I really have never met Shen Zhao.”
Song Yanran frowned slightly: "That's strange. Why is there a lingering scent of jade thorn on this photo stone?"
This is the scent emanating from the sachet that Shen Zhao carried with him when he transformed into Chu Liuxiang.
There shouldn't be anyone else in the world who could concoct such an identical spice blend. Is this really just a coincidence?
Luo Pianhong shook his head: "Impossible, that recording stone is..."
She froze halfway through her sentence.
The words Xu Fanghe had once told him flashed through his mind.
"I am Shen Zhao."
Reflecting on those words now feels like a thunderbolt, leaving me utterly stunned.
It turns out that the other person had already told him their identity, but he didn't believe it at all?
So, it turns out the clown was actually me?
"Ugh~"
Thinking of this, she instantly broke down and bent over to vomit violently again.
Oh no, Xu Fanghe is Shen Zhao. He saved me, but I didn't recognize him again? And I even clashed with him several times?
No wonder he told me to use my brain more when I was leaving. Was that what he meant? Was he mocking me for being too stupid?
He must know that she had taken the initiative to be affectionate with Ye Aojun and almost slept with him. He must be disgusted with her now and even looks down on her.
I'm breaking down, I'm really about to break down.
How could I be so stupid? I didn't recognize the person standing right in front of me twice!
Finally, just like last time, did I watch Shen Zhao and Jiang Qingluan walk away arm in arm? And silently wish them well?
Good heavens, you can't be serious, can you?
Countless thoughts flashed through her mind; feelings of resentment, shame, anger, and regret surged into her heart, making Luo Pianhong vomit even more violently.
Seeing this, Song Yanran asked curiously, "What's wrong, little sister? Judging from your appearance, could it be that you've already had that kind of relationship with that imposter?"
"No, please don't talk nonsense, how could that be!" Luo Pianhong was so frightened that she quickly denied it. "How could I possibly have a relationship with that kind of person? Sister, please don't misunderstand."
"Yes, I believe you."
Song Yanran responded calmly.
But this perfectly normal expression seemed very "abnormal" to Luo Pianhong, who felt it was a typical sign of distrust.
"No, Sister Song doesn't believe me at all; her eyes are clearly full of suspicion."
If she says that to Shen Zhao, I really won't have any chance at all.
Thinking of this, she grabbed Song Yanran and hurriedly explained, "Sister, I really didn't do anything with that person."
I'm innocent, you really have to believe me, don't have any weird ideas.
Song Yanran frowned slightly, feeling somewhat bewildered: "Didn't I say I naturally believe you?"
"But the look in your eyes clearly shows you don't believe me, sister. You can't just think things like that."
I have absolutely no connection with that imposter. If you don't believe me, Jiang Qingluan can testify.
"What does this have to do with the Queen of Yaochi?" Song Yanran asked, puzzled.
"Because the Queen Mother of the West saw it too. If you don't believe me, I'll take you to find her!"
She deliberately concealed Xu Fanghe's existence because she was too ashamed to talk about it.
Song Yanran shook her head and calmly replied again, "No need, I believe you as I said."
"No, I must prove my innocence. Sister, come with me to the Jade Pool Holy Land, and we'll find out the truth there."
Seeing her anxious expression, Song Yanran slowly pulled her arm away from Song Yanran's grasp, lightly ran her fingertips through her hair, and shook her head with a smile.
"Why are you so nervous, little sister? I've already told you I believe you, and besides..."
Even if that thing really happened, I wouldn't look down on you in the slightest.
After all, no one forced the empress to remain chaste for a certain man for life.
There are many empresses in the Immortal Martial Continent, and we are not the only ones with some reputation who are remembered.
Many empresses of second- or third-rate countries also practiced having three palaces and six concubines when they ascended the throne, and had concubines everywhere.
For example, the Empress of Yan, a vassal state of Longhan, had four husbands: one in charge of the military, one in charge of politics, one in charge of commerce, and one in charge of agriculture.
She didn't have to do anything; her four loyal husbands would manage the country for her. Her only worry was who would serve her in bed each night.
Didn't the five of them live a happy and harmonious life? There was no gossip about them, and someone even wrote a book about it, which was truly moving.
In addition, Empress Li Ji of Zhao kept nine male concubines, indulging in revelry day and night, and did not attend court for eight years.
