"But His Majesty has demoted you..." Hongyue's voice was indignant, but looking at her face, he became less and less confident.
"Hongyue, there's no need to mention it. It was me who was rude. Your Majesty has nothing to do with it. There's no need to pin the blame on him."
"Besides, it's good not to be in the spotlight. His Majesty comes to see me almost every once in a while, and I'm already very happy."
Shen Xiaohan had a splitting headache, and suddenly some fragmented memories emerged in his mind.
There is a woman's tearful face, a cute smile, a gentle kiss, and a burning sincerity.
Shen Xiaohan knew that those were all his memories.
But why did he remember it now?
Without caring about too much, at this moment, his heart felt as if it was soaked in warm water, and it was soft.
He turned over, stepped down from the eaves, and left quietly.
It turns out that there are people in this harem who treat him sincerely, without asking for anything and without wanting anything.
There is only love, only pure love without any mixture.
Tang Wan knew he was gone, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She smoothed her chest and said with gratitude, "Hongyue, thank you so much this time."
Hongyue was dazed and fell to her knees, scratching her head hard. Just when Tang Wan was completely confused.
But she burst into tears, looking so pitiful. If you didn't know her, you would think that she was being exploited.
Although it is indeed squeezed...
Tang Wan pulled her up with amusement: "Why are you crying?"
"My Lady, if this matter is ever exposed, you must betray me and say that it was my idea and you have nothing to do with it."
Hongyue became increasingly sad as she spoke, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. "My Lady, when I die, you must erect a monument for me and cook pork knuckles and lotus cakes for me every day."
"Silly girl, bah, bah, bah, what nonsense are you talking about? I'm still waiting for you to enjoy a good meal when I get promoted."
Hongyue's eyelids were swollen from crying: "My Lady, if we are discovered, it will be a crime of deceiving the emperor."
At that time, she would do everything in her power to take the blame for this crime. She has no parents and no one to worry about.
After spending so many good days with the Empress, it’s time to repay her.
Tang Wan knew that she was indeed frightened, and soothed her softly, "Don't be afraid. This time, His Majesty has dismissed all the palace servants. There are only three of us. As long as you don't say anything, His Majesty won't know."
"Really?"
"Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you? Besides, I won't do anything I'm not sure of."
Although Hongyue is quite courageous, she is just a little girl after all. She has lived a well-behaved life for more than ten years and has never done anything so inappropriate.
A few years ago, if she were asked to deceive the king, she would never do it even if she died.
"Be good, don't be afraid, our revenge will be avenged soon."
Rongpin, I don’t know if you can bear it.
.........
The next day, Shen Xiaohan announced the restoration of Tang Wan's position and changed her title to "Han".
For a time, everyone in the harem felt insecure.
Especially the concubines who had stepped on Tang Wan in the past, and those eunuchs and palace maids who looked down on others.
My heart sank.
Who knew that His Majesty was so fickle that he restored Tang Wan's position in less than three months.
He also changed his title to "Han".
This title was originally nothing special, it simply means brightness, but the last character of the current emperor's name has the same pronunciation as this title.
It can be seen how much importance it has been given.
In the imperial dining room.
"Godfather, godfather, what should I do? Godfather!" A seven-foot-tall, handsome young eunuch was pacing anxiously in the imperial kitchen.
The old eunuch he called godfather had a wrinkled face and was not tall. His expression was indifferent: "I told you a long time ago, don't listen to that Rongpin and torture Hanguipin."
"She is extremely beautiful and will maintain her favor for at least ten years. Why are you withholding her food when you have nothing better to do? Even if she is temporarily out of favor, she is still a concubine and the main concubine of the palace. If you act like this, it will be difficult for her not to remember you."
The old eunuch skimmed the tea foam, pursed his lips, and looked nonchalant and indifferent.
The young eunuch knelt on the ground, tears in his eyes: "Godfather, please save your son. I just wanted to please Rongpin. I never thought that Han Guipin would be favored again one day."
The old eunuch snorted coldly: "Now you know how to cry for your parents, but when you were doing this to gain benefits, why didn't you think of me?"
The young eunuch knelt and crawled over, hugging his thighs: "Godfather, please save your son. Your son kowtows to you."
The old eunuch looked at his pretty face with tears in his eyes, and his heart moved slightly. He clamped his chin with one hand and said, "That's fine. But, Fu Zi, you have to bring something in exchange."
Fu Zi was dazed, and there was anxiety and fear in his eyes when he looked at him.
"After all, people need to suffer a little before they learn their lesson, don't you think?"
"Damn, godfather is right." He stammered, his back soaked with cold sweat, feeling chilly, as if a cold poisonous snake was lurking around him.
"For the sake of our father-son relationship, Godfather won't make things difficult for you. As long as you are willing, Godfather will naturally save your life."
Fu Zi kowtowed repeatedly: "Thank you, godfather, thank you, godfather."
His godfather was so kind. Thinking that he had escaped, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and relaxed his whole body.
"Okay, Fuzi, follow me to my room and I'll tell you in detail..."
"......yes"
.............
"Your Majesty, you are truly as foresighted as a god. His Majesty has indeed restored your position."
Tang Wan smiled slightly: "This is all thanks to you." If Hongyue hadn't remained calm in the face of danger, there wouldn't have been such a good effect.
Hongyue thought of her embarrassing appearance last night and her face turned slightly red.
"My Lady, where is the revenge you mentioned?"
"Don't worry, Hongyue, just wait a little longer. Soon, someone will lose their patience and come looking for me."
Rongpin has been recuperating from her injuries these days. She didn't dare let others know her true identity, so she ordered the Qingyi Palace to be sealed off and no one was allowed to go out.
Naturally, I missed the most important news.
Tang Wan took advantage of this point of hers, so she was very sure that Rongpin knew that Shen Xiaohan was about to return to the palace, and would take advantage of this last moment to bully her severely.
Rongpin was stepping on Zhao Hai's face and eating grapes one bite after another.
The juice overflowed and stained her fingers. She stretched out her hand and Zhao Hai quickly got up from the ground and licked it off hastily.
"Is Your Majesty returning to the palace soon?"
