Chapter 431 Falling from Favor
Concubine Shu's expression suddenly changed. She stood up and walked out, and saw the Northern Qi Emperor standing at the gate with a gloomy face, and Wang Lin kneeling at his feet, trembling.
Her heart skipped a beat, and her face turned pale. She was afraid that the Northern Qi Emperor had heard her conversation with Wang Lin. She said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, your concubine...your concubine greets you."
The Emperor of Northern Qi looked at Concubine Shu with a cold gaze. Naturally, she could not hide her little actions from him.
Since she sent a message to Madam Feng, this matter reached his ears.
He did not stop her and wanted to see what Concubine Shu was going to do.
Who would have thought that it was Madam Feng who was sent to poison Shen Qingtan.
He couldn't help but think more deeply. Feng Xiaozhong had exposed the King of Qi's background, but it was ultimately proven that Feng Xiaozhong had falsely accused him. Now that Feng Xiaozhong was dead, and Madam Feng was working for Concubine Shu again, she was going after Shen Qingtan.
Does this mean that the person behind Feng Xiaozhong is Concubine Shu?
All of this was manipulated by Concubine Shu.
After all, the King of Qi fell, and the wise King was the biggest beneficiary.
The Emperor of Northern Qi's face turned pale. Concubine Shu should never, ever, touch the King of Qi.
Although he silenced Feng Xiaozhong, the news that Feng Xiaozhong had secretly sought out the female doctor still leaked out. Rumors were already circulating about the King of Qi's background.
But even if the King of Qi has a clean background, he cannot release the person just because he assassinated him.
Concubine Shu didn't hear the Northern Qi Emperor speak for a long time, and her heart was uneasy. "Your Majesty, you... today is the Dragon Boat Festival. You came to visit me. Do you want to celebrate the festival with me?"
She hoped that the Emperor of Northern Qi did not hear their conversation.
"Would you like to come in and sit down?"
Concubine Shu tentatively reached out her hand and grabbed the sleeve of the Northern Qi Emperor. Seeing that the Northern Qi Emperor did not shake her hand off, she felt a stir in her heart. Could it be that the Northern Qi Emperor did not hear her?
Is the reason for being angry because the eunuch violated the rules and entered and left the cold palace at will?
Concubine Shu took the opportunity to pull the Northern Qi Emperor into the house and said softly, "Your Majesty, this place is not as good as Zhaohua Palace. Please make do with it."
The Emperor of Northern Qi looked around the room. Apart from a bed, a box, a table and two round stools, there was no other utensils.
Suddenly, his eyes swept over the newly changed brocade bedding on the bed, and then moved to the food box on the ground. The leftovers in it still showed that the meal was very fine, even better than what Concubine Shu had eaten in Zhaohua Palace, which exceeded the regulations.
The Emperor of Northern Qi became more and more certain that it was Concubine Shu who framed the Queen and confused the royal bloodline. The Prince of Qi had just lost power, and she was living like a fish in water in the cold palace.
He really doesn't know how to restrain himself.
The next moment, a soft body hugged him.
The Emperor of Northern Qi withdrew his gaze, lowered his eyes to look at Concubine Shu in his arms, met her red and tearful eyes, and pushed her away.
Concubine Shu was stunned and called out helplessly: "Your Majesty..."
The Northern Qi Emperor said coldly, "I still have government affairs to attend to."
After saying this, he strode out.
Concubine Shu was panicked and hurriedly chased after him: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
The Northern Qi Emperor turned a deaf ear and strode away in one direction.
Eunuch Liu followed closely behind the Emperor of Northern Qi. When he saw that he was heading towards Changle Palace, his expression changed and he realized that the Emperor of Northern Qi was completely disappointed with Concubine Shu.
Based on his understanding of the Emperor of Northern Qi, he was afraid that even if the virtuous prince was named the crown prince, he would not release the concubine.
He might even be sentenced to death.
He said cautiously, "Your Majesty, the Queen..."
The Emperor of Northern Qi looked at him coldly.
Eunuch Liu immediately fell silent.
The Emperor of Northern Qi stepped into Changle Palace with a gloomy expression, and suddenly, his eyes fixed on one place.
