Chapter 149 I Hold You
After Miao Wangshu and the other two left, Jiang Shuyi broke into the Queen's inner palace despite the palace maids' obstruction.
Empress Shen had already changed out of her phoenix robe and was looking at the account books of the palaces at the table on the kang. Seeing that she looked very unhappy, she said, "You were making indirect accusations outside. Didn't you think I couldn't hear it?"
Jiang Shuyi found a rose chair and sat down, then ordered the maid to serve tea, and then deliberately said: "Why are you making indirect accusations? Queen, please don't wrongly accuse me."
Queen Shen said with annoyance: "You don't have to pretend. Miao Zhaoyi and the others rely on your power and even look down on Concubine Xue. Who can let them wrong them? I'm afraid that it won't be long before they will ride on my head too."
Jiang Shuyi could tell that she was speaking up for Concubine Xue, so she asked her, "Does the Queen think Concubine Xue is a good person?"
Queen Shen flipped through the account book without looking up. "Concubine Xue is gentle, sensible, and considerate. She is not a good person. Are you a good person who is arrogant and disrespectful of others?"
Jiang Shuyi stood up and walked to Queen Shen, snatching the account book from her hand.
Queen Shen didn’t expect that she would dare to do this, and she raised her head in anger and scolded: “You are so presumptuous!”
Jiang Shuyi was tired of hearing that. She slammed the account book on the table and sneered, "When I first entered the East Palace, I also thought Concubine Xue was a good person. But after Your Majesty ascended the throne and I gained favor, Concubine Xue began to harm me with sweet words and a dagger in her heart. Not to mention the trivial matters, the poisoning of the eldest prince last year was staged by her to frame me!"
Queen Shen said with a straight face: "If you say that Concubine Wu and Concubine Jin did this, I would believe it a little, but Concubine Xue would never do that."
Jiang Shuyi was furious.
"Your Majesty, do you think it is necessary for me to lie? Even if I have to lie, I should lie to His Majesty. What's the point of lying to Your Majesty, the queen who was almost deposed!"
Queen Shen was really angry this time and pointed at her: "Noble Concubine Jiang, you are too presumptuous!"
Jiang Shuyi said disdainfully: "Come on, if I hadn't told Your Majesty that I didn't want to be the master of the six palaces, did Your Majesty think you could still sit in Kunning Palace and say that I was being presumptuous?"
Queen Shen was hit in a sore spot, and she became even more angry, her chest heaving. She pointed at Jiang Shuyi and called her "you" for a long time without saying the rest of the sentence.
Jiang Shuyi calmed down a little: "I am not here to quarrel with the Queen, I just want to tell her that Concubine Xue, Concubine Wu, Concubine Jin and Concubine Qian are not good people. Don't let them use you as a knife to bully Wangshu and others in the future."
Queen Shen understood and sneered: “Those who are enemies with you are not good people.”
Jiang Shuyi did not deny it: "Anyway, your Majesty, remember this. If anyone helps them bully my people, I will come back to settle the score with you even if I am at the ends of the earth!"
Queen Shen wanted to say that it was outrageous, but she remembered that she had already said it twice and it was useless, so she ordered with a gloomy face: "Back off!"
Jiang Shuyi didn't want to stay for long, so she looked at Queen Shen provocatively and turned to leave.

Pei Yan returned to the Qianqing Palace very late today.
At this time in the past, Jiang Shuyi would have probably fallen asleep due to exhaustion, but today she was sewing sachets.
Pei Yan opened his arms and let Cheng Shouzhong change his clothes. He looked at her and ordered, "Stop sewing. It hurts your eyes at night. I haven't worn all the clothes you made before."
Jiang Shuyi snorted softly: "It's different. Those are all embroidered with golden dragons or auspicious pictures. This one is embroidered with me and Your Majesty."
This is novel.
Pei Yan did not stop her and waited for her to change her clothes before walking over. He fell silent after seeing the pattern on the embroidery frame in her hand.
The two little people hugging each other can be seen as a boy and a girl.
Her embroidery skills were excellent. She had embroidered the man's clothes and hat, while the woman's hair was loose, with only her profile showing in the man's arms.
There's only the face, the eyebrows and eyes haven't been embroidered yet.
Pei Yan took a deep breath and pointed at the embroidery: "Now it's the witchcraft."
Jiang Shuyi didn't understand, she looked up at him in confusion while holding the needle and thread.
"When the eyebrows and eyes are embroidered on," Pei Yan looked at the two little figures with a puzzled look, "it will become an embroidered spring sachet."
Jiang Shuyi was so angry that she almost threw the embroidery frame.
She picked up the pattern she had embroidered and wanted to ask Pei Yan what was the resemblance? However, after Pei Yan said that, she looked at the two little figures again and felt something was wrong.
When she first entered the Eastern Palace, the nanny showed her an embroidered sachet when she was teaching her about human affairs. It did look a bit like...
But only a little!
"The people on those things are all naked, but I have clothes on, I have clothes on!"
Jiang Shuyi gradually became more confident.
Pei Yan: "Okay, that's great, but I can't take it out."
Jiang Shuyi glared at him angrily.
Pei Yan took away the embroidery frame and needle and thread from her hands and said, "Go to bed."
Jiang Shuyi fell on the couch and looked at him with a wink: "No, Your Majesty hasn't come back all day today. I feel bad and I have no strength in my body. I can't walk anymore."
Pei Yan followed her wishes: "I will hold you."
Jiang Shuyi then sat up, Pei Yan bent down, and she wrapped her arms and legs around him, hugged his neck, and wrapped her legs behind him.
Pei Yan carried her into the inner hall and put her on the bed, but she refused to let go.
"His Majesty......"
She said in a muffled voice: "I want to be with Your Majesty these days, day and night. I don't want to be alone, not even during the day. Is that okay?"
Pei Yan just held her in his arms, silent.
If he wants to plan for Jiang Shuyi, he has to choose the next monarch.
Pei Yi was raised by his biological mother until he was four years old, so he must have heard a lot of bad things from Jiang Shuyi. When he came to power, Jiang Shuyi was the first to suffer.
As for Pei Yu.
Pei Yan tested Jiang Shuyi again: "Since you are bored during the day, why don't you go and accompany Yu'er? You haven't seen him for a long time."
Jiang Shuyi was annoyed when she heard the name and pretended to sob: "Didn't I tell your majesty that because of the difficult childbirth, I feel uncomfortable all over when I see him!"
Pei Yan: "I haven't seen you for a few months. Maybe you've gotten better."
The resistance in Jiang Shuyi's voice was about to overflow: "No! If your majesty doesn't want me anymore, just tell me! I will secretly eat an elixir tomorrow and go to the Heavenly Palace!"
Pei Yan hugged her tightly.
He recalled from the secret guard records that Jiang Shuyi had mentioned the desire to achieve enlightenment when talking to Wu Jianshan.
It was nonsense, but now there is evidence to support it.
When investigating Wu Jianshan, many strange things were reported. Pei Yan used to think that it was just a scheme to cover up the truth, but now he thought that he did not try to make any profit from it, so maybe there was some truth in it.
But can Jiang Shuyi become an immortal?
Pei Yan thought of how she would sometimes lean into his arms three or four times a night, whining and moaning incessantly, and he began to think that Wu Jianshan was cheating him.
Thinking of lying, Pei Yan suddenly felt clear-headed.
Even if Jiang Shuyi's rebirth is true, does that mean that my short life is also true?
What if Wu Jianshan took advantage of his knowledge of Jiang Shuyi's rebirth to trick her into leaving?
Pei Yan was so worried that he forgot to think about many things.
In any case, we should make a decision after seeing what Wu Jianshan and Jiang Shuyi are going to do after they escape.
If Wu Jianshan wants to harm Jiang Shuyi, just kill him.
Even if it was true, Pei Yan would not let Jiang Shuyi suffer while practicing outside. He captured the Taoist disciple and threatened him to change his words. In order to coax Jiang Shuyi back, Pei Yan would use the remaining eleven years to plan the rest of her life for her.
