Chapter 307: Palace Fight: Heartfelt Words
Feng Chengyi thought that Shen Hanqing still had feelings for him, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw, "Hanqing, I was wrong, I shouldn't have let you down."
"I still have you in my heart. This time, I will definitely make you the queen!"
Shen Hanqing knew that Feng Chengyi was being hypocritical, but she quite liked Feng Chengyi's fawning behavior. "Is what your majesty said true?"
Feng Chengyi nodded vigorously, his courage and determination gone. "Of course what I said is true. I truly regret it. I shouldn't have treated you this way."
Shen Hanqing pretended to be shaken, "I... no longer believe in Your Majesty."
Then turn and leave.
In the next few days, Feng Chengyi reported to the cold palace every day to please Shen Hanqing.
Shen Hanqing naturally changed the ways to torment Feng Chengyi.
It feels like Feng Chengyi is a little mentally unstable.
In order to make Shen Hanqing change her mind, he began to recall the sweet days he had with Shen Hanqing.
As he recalled the past, Feng Chengyi began to cry bitterly, and he didn't know whether it was sincere or fake.
At night, Feng Chengyi went to Rong Fei's palace in a trance.
Concubine Rong looked at the disheveled Feng Chengyi with disgust.
But she still gave him some face and let the palace maid take him to bathe and change clothes.
Feng Chengyi finally came to his senses and grabbed Concubine Rong's arms, demanding, "Why did you betray me? Am I not good enough to you?"
"Jewelry and supreme grace, I gave them all to you, didn't I?"
Rong Fei tugged at Feng Chengyi's fingers. Did she like Feng Chengyi? Of course not. She just liked power and wanted to be the queen.
That's why I spend so much time on Feng Chengyi.
She always felt that it was foolish to express her love to the emperor.
The most ruthless are the imperial family.
Rong Fei said softly, "Your Majesty, I am pregnant."
Feng Chengyi suddenly smiled again, "I have a child, I have a child!"
Then he said nervously: "We can't let Shen Hanqing know that she can't tolerate this child. Concubine Qu's child is because she has no one."
Rong Fei pretended to be surprised, "Your Majesty, don't you know? Qu Fei's child was in an abnormal position from the beginning and couldn't be born, so..."
Feng Chengyi felt his mind was blank, as if he had been living in a lie and everyone was deceiving him.
Rong Fei continued: "Also, Shen Hanqing already knows. She promised me that my child will be the most noble person in Da Xia."
She has accepted her fate and has let it go.
Fighting with Shen Hanqing will only lead to death.
It would be better to join the same camp as Shen Hanqing.
Feng Chengyi seemed to have been drained of all his energy. He slumped in his chair, his eyes blank, and muttered, "Impossible, impossible!"
Feng Chengjin returned and brought back the people's support.
At the same time, they began to announce to the outside world that Feng Chengyi was obsessed with beauty and ignored the affairs of state.
Feng Chengjin was appointed to handle state affairs on his behalf.
Feng Chengyi was completely placed under house arrest. He tried to resist, but to no avail.
Until one day, Shen Hanqing brought the imperial edict and asked him to seal it with the jade seal himself.
Feng Chengyi felt that Shen Hanqing was humiliating him. The jade seal was already in their hands, wasn’t it?
Shen Hanqing looked at Feng Chengyi who was looking at her angrily, and responded: "Yes, I came here to humiliate you, and you have no choice."
Having said that, he was forced to hold the jade seal and stamp the imperial edict.
Feng Chengyi was shaking with anger and kept cursing, "Shen Hanqing, you bitch, you must die!"
Shen Hanqing turned his back to Feng Chengyi, “Your Majesty, you have always wanted to kill me, right?”
Feng Chengyi probably didn't want to pretend anymore, so he just said what was in his heart, "Of course I'm going to kill you, and I'm going to kill everyone in your Shen family!"
Shen Hanqing asked again: "Your Majesty was able to ascend to this position, isn't it because of the Shen family?"
Feng Chengyi laughed heartily, "So what! I only regret that I was unable to eliminate your Shen family, which is why I ended up like this today!"
"This also proves that I did nothing wrong! You, the Shen family, are truly rebellious! You have evil ambitions!"
"And you, a vicious woman, do you think I would marry you if it weren't for the throne?"
"Which man would like a woman who is too smart?"
Feng Chengjin walked in from outside the hall, "Of course it's me."
Feng Chengyi stared at Feng Chengjin intently.
Feng Chengjin approached Shen Hanqing and said, "This prince likes Shen Zhaoyi's intelligence. Your Majesty, rest assured. This prince will fulfill your unfulfilled promise, which is to make Shen Zhaoyi the queen."
Feng Chengyi went completely crazy, cursing loudly and calling them a couple of bastards.
Feng Chengyi then regained some clarity and looked at Shen Hanqing with resentment, "Do you know why I have always been reluctant to touch you? Because you make me feel sick!"
"Also, I've been having people drug your food. You'll never be able to have children in your lifetime! A concubine from the previous dynasty who can't even have children, wanting to become the queen is simply a pipe dream!"
Feng Chengjin suddenly looked at Shen Hanqing. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
He didn’t expect Feng Chengyi to be so ruthless that he actually drugged Shen Hanqing.
Shen Hanqing raised her eyebrows calmly, "It's no big deal to watch what I do." Even if she wasn't drugged, she wouldn't be able to have children.
But this did not stop her from teasing Feng Chengjin, "Could it be that His Royal Highness Prince An dislikes it?"
Feng Chengjin replied subconsciously: "Of course not." He even felt a little distressed.
At this point, how can Feng Chengjin escape?
He had to admit that he had already fallen in love with Shen Hanqing, a woman, without realizing it.
At the same time, Feng Chengjin didn't understand why Feng Chengyi could be so cruel to Shen Hanqing.
Because I don’t love you, I don’t care about the hurt.
A few days later, Emperor Feng Chengyi passed away and passed the throne to his brother Feng Chengjin.
The new emperor ascended the throne and issued a general amnesty.
All the ministers in the court were purged.
What else can be done about those court officials who were purged?
At least, Feng Chengjin spared their lives, didn't he?
If we must investigate what they have done, it is not just a matter of retiring and returning home.
Because Feng Chengyi's reputation has long been bad, the people are somewhat looking forward to the new emperor's ascension to the throne.
Shen Hanqing went to see Prime Minister Cao, but Prime Minister Cao was unwilling to stay and wanted to take Qu Shu away.
Qu Shu was somewhat sincere towards Prime Minister Cao, but Shen Hanqing didn’t know and didn’t want to delve into it.
Why bother with other people's affairs?
Shen Hanqing smiled and said to Prime Minister Cao: “Tell Prime Minister Cao a secret.”
Prime Minister Cao continued, "Qu Shu's miscarriage has nothing to do with Feng Chengyi, right?"
Shen Hanqing glanced at Prime Minister Cao, and he was indeed a smart man.
Prime Minister Cao also smiled and said, "I don't want to delve into this any further. For some things, knowing too much is not good."
Shen Hanqing smiled and said, "Then Prime Minister Cao is really an infatuated man."
Even though he knew that Qu Shu was not really kind and innocent, he still chose to take Qu Shu away.
If Qu Shu was smarter and more obedient, her second half of life would be pretty good.
