Chapter 808: Imperial Master: Facing the Truth
Lan Ruo clenched her palms, "I'm afraid no one will agree to let me be the queen."
Dongfang Tuo slammed the table and said savagely, "Who dares to disagree?"
"Why do I need others' approval when I do things?"
Lan Ruo lowered her eyebrows and said, "I have a poor background..."
Before she finished, Dongfang Tuo interrupted her, "I won't listen to any of this or that. I am willing to let my beloved concubine be the queen."
Lan Ruo was stunned and didn't know what to say for a moment.
She even forgot to find a reason not to let Dongfang Tuo stay overnight.
Dongfang Tuo had no intention of staying. He stood up and complained, "My beloved concubine, you are really putting me in a difficult position. I'm afraid I can't accompany you tonight. The memorials from those old men are really annoying."
Lan Ruo also stood up and said, "I respectfully send the emperor off."
Dongfang Tuo raised his head and said, "I've already told you, my beloved, that there's no need for those empty formalities. I'll come to see you tomorrow."
Lan Ruo nodded subconsciously.
Dongfang Tuo walked out of the hall, and there was no trace of cynical expression on his face.
While Lan Ruo was still in a daze, Dongfang Jin said coldly, "Why, are you moved already?"
"He, Dongfang Tuo, has three thousand beauties in his harem. I don't know how many times he has said such sweet words."
"He will depose the queen for you now, and he will depose you for others in the future."
"Besides, you know exactly why he treats you like this, don't you?"
Lan Ruo frowned. Dongfang Jin's words were clearly slander against Dongfang Tuo.
Because she knew best that Dongfang Tuo was not that kind of person.
As for why Dongfang Tuo treated her like that, it was a hurdle that Lan Ruo could not get over.
Dongfang Jin was ordered around by Dongfang Tuo for most of the day and was even kicked a few times. How could he swallow this?
So he continued to criticize Dongfang Tuo, saying that if he ascended the throne, he would make sure Dongfang Tuo suffered the same humiliation.
Lan Ruo said irritably, "That's enough!"
Dongfang Jin stared at Lan Ruo with a sinister look, "What? Are you really moved by that Dongfang Tuo? Are you heartbroken?"
At this moment, Dongfang Jin was not as gentle as when he coaxed Lan Ruo.
On the contrary, it looks a bit hideous.
Lan Ruo stared at Dongfang Jin in a daze.
Dongfang Jin continued, "Lan Ruo, you have no choice! You can only help this king!"
"That Dongfang Taku will not show mercy to a traitor."
"And you can't rely on your charm to charm Dongfang Tuo for the rest of his life!"
"Anything obtained through deception is always false! Only what I give you is real."
Lan Ruo closed her eyes and said, "I'm tired and want to rest."
However, the humiliation Dongfang Jin suffered was not over yet.
Now that he had disguised himself as a eunuch and entered the palace, he naturally had to share a room with those eunuchs at night.
Only after all the eunuchs fell asleep would he do other things.
As a result, as soon as he returned, he was stopped outside the door by other eunuchs who lived with him.
They pointed at the chamber pot outside the door and asked Dongfang Jin to wash it all.
Dongfang Jin could tolerate it before, but how could he tolerate cleaning the chamber pot?
He is a prince, cleaning the chamber pot?
So Dongfang Jin refused.
The eunuchs laughed and said, "Let me tell you, this is all ordered by Eunuch Zhang. If you don't do it, you will be in trouble tomorrow."
Eunuch Zhang, the chief eunuch.
They definitely wouldn't dare to offend eunuchs of their level.
Dongfang Jin kicked over the chamber pot and turned to look for Lan Ruo.
So what if Eunuch Zhang doesn't listen to Lan Ruo?
But Dongfang Jin did not find Lan Ruo. Lan Ruo, who said she wanted to rest, was not in the bedroom.
Of course, he was called away by Shen Hanqing.
In order to better trouble Dongfang Jin.
Dongfang Jin, who failed to find Lan Ruo's support, was blocked by Eunuch Zhang and several eunuchs.
Give him two choices: either clean the chamber pot or be beaten to death.
Dongfang Jin's level of tolerance is really not enough to clean the chamber pot.
So I ran away, running all night long.
Because the noise was quite loud, Lan Ruo, who was inexplicably dragged in to play chess with Shen Hanqing, also knew about it.
She was a little shocked, then she thought of something, and couldn’t help asking Shen Hanqing, “Did you know?”
Shen Hanqing lifted her eyelids and said, "Know what? I just couldn't sleep all night, so I went to play chess with Concubine Lan."
"It's just that Concubine Lan's chess skills are not very good, and she has never won."
Lan Ruo was not a fool, even if Shen Hanqing didn't admit it, she guessed it.
Shen Hanqing deliberately sent herself away.
Lan Ruo looked at Shen Hanqing with mixed feelings, not knowing what to say.
I was angry, but not to the point of being angry and sentimental.
All she cared about was, "Does the Emperor know about this?"
Shen Hanqing asked Lan Ruo, "What do you think? Eunuch Zhang, who should we listen to?"
Lan Ruo didn't understand, "But why...why didn't the emperor just kill Dongfang Jin?"
Shen Hanqing propped up his chin and said lazily, "Who knows, it may be because of the deep brotherly love, or it may be because of you."
No one believes in the idea of deep brotherly love.
Just because of her?
Lan Ruo thought of something, "No, even if I used my charm on the emperor, I never asked him to let Dongfang Jin go. How could he do that?"
She stood up suddenly, the panic of her charm failing overshadowing her anger at Shen Hanqing for deliberately sending her away.
Lan Ruo took a long time to whisper, "Should I go find the Emperor?"
Shen Hanqing didn't say anything, with an expression that said, "Who are you asking?"
Lan Ruo left absentmindedly, like a wandering soul, not knowing where to go.
She was afraid to face Dongfang Taku who was not controlled by her charm.
To be precise, she was afraid to face the truth.
Shen Hanqing looked at Lan Ruo's back as she left, and thought for a moment, "Why do I feel like I'm not watching a show, but being a matchmaker?"
333 replied, "Host, please be more confident and remove the feelings and questioning tone."
Isn’t the host acting as a matchmaker?
If it weren't for the host, with Lan Ruo's hesitation and entanglement, it's unclear whether her relationship with Dongfang Tuo would have any result.
After all, there is no good ending in the plot.
Lan Ruo finally reached the emperor's bedroom.
She stood outside the bedroom and could see the candlelight inside.
Dongfang Tuo hasn't slept yet.
She stood there for a while and then went to the bedroom.
Some things always have to be faced, just in advance.
Lan Ruo realized that what she feared was not death, but Dongfang Tuo's attitude towards her after his charm technique lost its effect.
She walked towards the bedroom step by step, each step feeling heavy.
After stepping into the bedroom, Lan Ruo saw Dongfang Tuo.
Dongfang Tuo stood in the middle of the bedroom and asked, "Why are you here, my beloved concubine?"
The Dongfang Tuo in front of him seemed no different from the previous one.
Lan Ruo stood at the door and asked with difficulty, "Your Majesty, do you know everything?"
Her voice was a little soft.
Dongfang Tuo said with some regret: "My beloved concubine, why are you still looking for me so late at night? And you actually want to ask this?"
"The night is long, I thought my beloved concubine was here to keep me company."
Lan Ruo made up her mind and asked directly, "Does the emperor know that the young eunuch is Dongfang Jin?"
