Chapter 230: A Generation of Evil Concubines (4)
The eunuchs and palace maids stood in two rows at the entrance of the palace, bowing their heads and waiting for the arrival of their new master.
Following the emperor, Shi Yi walked among the crowd, constantly looking at her brand new palace, obviously very satisfied, but when she glanced at the place where the palace plaque should have been hung, her eyes suddenly turned cold.
"My beloved concubine, please don't be angry. I have asked the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs to rush to make a new plaque for you." Seeing that she was so happy and angry in time, like a child, Emperor Ping couldn't help but laugh.
"What name did the emperor give to this palace?" Shi Yi walked forward but didn't expect the emperor to stop. She was caught off guard and bumped into his chest. Her nose felt sore and she shed tears.
"My beloved concubine, you are crying because of the pain." Emperor Ping rubbed her nose with a sense of humor, and wiped the rest of her face.
What impressed him most was that one night, he went to bed late because of sleepiness, and then Wang Shuyi, who had removed her makeup, opened the curtain and came in. Her pale face and dark circles under her eyes looked like a female ghost who was asking for her life, which frightened him.
"It doesn't hurt much, but your hand is so annoying." Shi Yi noticed his hidden "intention" and slapped his hand away.
The eunuchs and maids standing at the door of the palace lowered their heads even lower. This was the first time they saw such a bold concubine, and the emperor didn't get angry.
"I thought you would take the opportunity to throw yourself into my arms for comfort like other concubines." Emperor Ping twisted his fingers, and there was no white powder on them. He looked at the concubine in front of him carefully, and her makeup didn't change at all. It turned out that the ruddy complexion was natural. He really picked up a natural beauty.
Shi Yi couldn't help it and rolled his eyes in front of him for the second time.
"Okay, everyone has their own duties, let's go." Cai Gonggong, who had served the emperor since childhood, gently waved his whisk, and the eunuchs and palace maids disappeared obediently.
After entering the inner room, Shi Yi remembered that Emperor Ping had not told him what the palace was called. Just as she was about to ask, she was pressed down on the bed.
Alas, beauty is really misleading. Shi Yi gently touched her beautiful face, but decisively escaped from Emperor Ping's arms.
You have to know that men are all bad at heart. The easier it is to get something, the less willing they are to cherish it, and the more they want it, the more they miss it.
"My beloved concubine is really good." Emperor Ping was not angry that he failed to hug the beauty. He rested one hand on the bed, his eyes scattered on her face, but his heart was rarely peaceful.
Shi Yi was alone for a while and turned to look at him, and found that he had fallen asleep.
Is he so sleepy?
She walked forward quietly and wanted to wake him up, but was stopped by Eunuch Cai who came in quietly.
Shi Yi followed Eunuch Cai's footsteps and quietly left the inner room.
"Your Majesty is blessed. I hope you can spend more time to make the emperor happy." Eunuch Cai deliberately avoided the word "ask", because he knew that the emperor really liked straightforward people rather than those who were hypocritical and humble.
He was obviously bowing his body to talk to Shi Yi, but Shi Yi felt that the old man had an aura that could not be refused.
"I hope Eunuch Cai can give me more guidance in the future." Shi Yi smiled. The face as bright as a bright flower did not move Eunuch Cai at all.
Eunuch Cai looked at the sleeping emperor in the inner room, and his eyes were full of heartache.
Outsiders all thought that the mediocre Emperor Ping could become the emperor just because of his luck as the eldest son and the heir. But only he, the old eunuch who served beside Emperor Ping, knew what Emperor Ping had paid for this position.
Emperor Ping did not wake up until night fell. As soon as
he opened his eyes, Shi Yi pulled him up to eat.
The emperor did not move his chopsticks, and she, as a concubine, could not touch the food at all. Poor her, she had been hungry for a day.
Emperor Ping looked at her wolfing down and took the opportunity to ask the doubts in his heart, "Your lawless character does not seem to be something that the upright Chaoyang Palace can support."
Shi Yi did not even raise his head, picked up the last prawn on the plate and put it in his bowl, and continued to eat, pretending not to hear what he said.
She thought Emperor Ping would not be able to realize her true identity so quickly, so she had not thought of a suitable excuse, but now it seems that Emperor Ping has already realized the strangeness of her identity.
Is it appropriate for her to tell the truth at this time? But if she didn't tell the truth, she would be unable to explain herself if someone from the Chaoyang Palace blamed her.
The atmosphere was silent for a while. When Shi Yi finished eating and put down her bowl and chopsticks, she had already made up her mind.
"What are you doing while eating?" Emperor Ping saw her kneeling in front of him with a cold look. Shi Yi was even more certain that he knew her true identity.
"I want to confess my crime." Her head was pressed tightly against the cold floor tiles, but the curves of her body were more obvious and attractive.
"Tell me what crime you want to confess." Emperor Ping's eyes flickered for a moment and then quickly returned to normal.
"I am confessing my own crime. The crime of deceiving the emperor." Shi Yi raised her head, looked at him steadily, and told the truth about the reason for entering the palace.
The beauty looked at you tenderly with a pair of eyes as bright as the water of West Lake. It is hard for anyone not to be moved. But Emperor Ping looked normal, and his hands hidden in his sleeves were clenched very tightly.
It would have been fine for him if the ministers in the court said that he was not as capable as Prince Zhaoyang in governing the country; but he never expected that his favorite concubine was actually in love with that guy. How could he bear such humiliation!
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for my shallow knowledge. Please listen to me in detail." Shi Yi noticed the anger in his eyes and hurriedly explained: "Before entering the palace, I had only seen men like Prince Zhaoyang, and because he once saved my life, I had a crush on him. In order to fulfill his childhood sweetheart relationship with the young lady, I took the initiative to enter the palace. But after I entered the palace, I accidentally caught a glimpse of your clothes and realized that there was such a romantic and fragile person like you in the world. I fell in love with you at first sight. So when I knew you were sick, I immediately sold all my belongings and exchanged for medicinal materials for your treatment. I was really touched that you could find me. Not to mention that you were so good to me later, giving me everything I wanted. No one has ever been so good to me in my life, except you."
Shi Yi didn't know if his flattery was in place, but his attitude was really shown. He knelt on the ground with his legs straight, his eyes were tearful, and he had a wronged look of pretending to be strong.
"Am I really the only one in this world who treats you the best?" Emperor Ping's eyes were restrained, and his anger seemed to be about to explode.
Shi Yi nodded quickly, "You are the best and most wonderful person in the world to me, unique and rare."
Without her seeing, Emperor Ping slowly loosened his clenched hands.
