Chapter 57 Entering the Palace
In Yaohua Palace, candlelight flickers.
Kwon Myung Hyuk stood there quietly.
His eyes fell on Shen Yuling who was carried in by the female secret guard.
The female secret guard walked lightly and quickly put Shen Yuling on the bed.
He knelt down respectfully and began to report: "Your Majesty, Concubine Shen heard that you had summoned her tonight, but she refused to enter the palace. Bai Hua had no choice but to chop Concubine Shen unconscious. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."
After hearing this, Quan Minghe's expression did not change at all, like a deep pool without ripples.
Since returning to the palace today, Li Ming found that His Majesty had hardly spoken a word.
His expression was as solid as a rock, and he remained unshakable no matter what the situation.
Such a Majesty made him feel even more creepy.
Not only was he careful in what he said and did, he also instructed all the servants in the Weiyang Palace not to make any mistakes.
I don’t know what happened to Your Majesty outside the palace today?
I don’t know what happened to Concubine Shen. She actually dared to disobey the order and refused to enter the harem. She was knocked unconscious by the female secret guards before she could enter.
Quan Minghe waved his hand.
The female secret guard immediately retreated quietly.
Li Ming was thinking about something at the moment and didn't pay attention to the situation around him.
Subconsciously, I followed His Majesty into the bedroom.
Quan Minghe noticed the movement behind him and stopped immediately.
He glared at me.
Li Ming instantly broke out in a cold sweat.
"Your Majesty, I will withdraw now."
Li Ming said hurriedly in panic, and then retreated in a hurry.
When he retreated, he did not forget to send away all the people serving around him.
For a moment, the only people left around the bedroom were Quan Minghe and the still unconscious Shen Yuling.
Quan Minghe walked to the bed and stood still.
The tall figure cast a heavy shadow beside the bed.
Most of Shen Yuling on the bed was covered in it.
His pair of black eyes were deep and dark, and his handsome features carried a cold and intimidating aura.
But we haven't seen each other for only a month, and now she is so bold!
Not only did she dare to have unscrupulous close contact with Feng Moheng outside, she also dared to openly disobey the imperial edict and refused to enter the palace.
Quan Minghe had a stern expression on his face and sat down beside the bed.
He stared at Shen Yuling, his eyes becoming more sinister and ruthless as time went by.
He raised his hand slowly.
The back of his broad hand caressed Shen Yuling's delicate and smooth cheek.
The movements seemed gentle, but they revealed an indescribable chill.
The hand slid down slowly, inch by inch, as if it was feeling something carefully, or measuring something.
Finally, it stopped at her jaw.
Quan Minghe suddenly exerted force from his palm.
He directly strangled Shen Yuling's neck with a quick and decisive move.
Quan Minghe narrowed his eyes slightly, and his narrow eyes were full of coldness and anger.
The strength in my hands is also increasing.
He whispered, "Dare to betray me, have you ever thought about the consequences?"
Shen Yuling suddenly found it difficult to breathe.
The feeling of suffocation came over her, and her face turned abnormally red.
At this time, she had not yet fully woken up from her coma and could only make faint "uh uh" sounds from her throat.
The sound is as thin as a mosquito.
In the silent palace, I felt increasingly helpless.
Not long after, the severe pain in her neck and the strong feeling of being unable to breathe finally woke Shen Yuling up.
She opened her eyes with difficulty, her eyes full of fear and panic.
But at this moment, she couldn't speak at all because her neck was strangled.
She could only try her best to hold Quan Minghe's hands that were strangling her neck with both hands, trying to break free.
The fox's eyes, which were once lively and beautiful, no longer had their former luster, and were replaced by fear.
The pupils contract sharply.
I didn’t know if it was because of the physical pain or fear, but tears quickly gathered in my eyes.
In the tears, Kwon Myung-hyuk's cold and ruthless face was reflected.
“Hmm…”
Shen Yuling forced out a broken and helpless sound from the depths of her throat.
Quan Minghe pursed his thin lips.
After a moment, he finally let go.
Shen Yuling recovered from the near-suffocating fear.
The body was shaking violently and uncontrollably.
Sitting up suddenly.
Subconsciously, I wanted to shrink towards the inside of the bed.
She just wanted to stay as far away from the man who almost killed her as possible.
But as soon as she moved, Quan Minghe clamped her waist tightly.
The force was so great that she couldn't move at all.
I can only be trapped where I am, like a lamb to be slaughtered.
Kwon Myung Hyuk came closer to her.
His lips curled up coolly, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
The look made Shen Yuling's scalp tingle, and a chill ran from the soles of her feet up to her heart.
"Where did Feng Moheng touch you?"
Shen Yuling's tears kept falling down her cheeks like beads that had broken off the string.
He trembled and said, "You are... Your Majesty?"
"I don't understand what you are saying. Why am I here?!"
There was panic in his words.
She didn't understand why she was there and why she was being questioned so terribly.
Quan Minghe's pupils couldn't help but shrink.
His brows furrowed.
He stood up and looked down at Shen Yuling who was curled up on the bed.
He asked again, "What's wrong with you?"
There was a hint of inquiry in his tone.
When Shen Yuling saw that he had loosened his grip on her, she felt as if she had been pardoned.
In panic, he hid in the corner of the bed and curled up in the corner.
She had a very bad feeling in her heart that His Majesty seemed to have some unusual relationship with her.
Can……
She is already married!
She is the princess consort of Prince Lingyang, and she has a harmonious and loving relationship with the prince and his wife. How could she betray her husband?
Shen Yuling kept shaking her head helplessly.
It was as if he wanted to use this to get rid of all the sudden horror from his mind.
Quan Minghe stared at the obvious helplessness in her eyes, and...
Confused!
My heart sank.
She... doesn't recognize him anymore?
Kwon Myung Hyuk wouldn't think she was pretending.
If I really don't remember it, then many things that happened before would make sense.
He couldn't help but bite his back teeth.
It's all useless garbage!
He arranged so many people to be around her outside the palace, but no one noticed that there was anything wrong with her!
Quan Minghe got up from the bed, his sleeves raising a gust of wind, and walked out of the bedroom.
"Li Ming!"
There was no hiding the anger in Kwon Myung Hyuk's voice.
Li Ming, who was waiting outside the hall, was so frightened that he trembled all over. He quickly pushed the door open and walked in.
"His Majesty."
Li Ming lowered his head.
"Go and check everything about Yue Chen Jieyu. Check it out for me. If there is anything I missed, I will hold you responsible!"
Quan Minghe ordered coldly.
“Yes.”
Li Ming did not dare to be negligent in the slightest. After responding, he quickly retreated.
His steps seemed a little flustered.
Quan Minghe suppressed the anger in his heart and re-entered the bedroom.
But when he reached out and pulled back the bed curtains.
There was no one inside.
He stood by the bed and didn't move for a while.
However, Quan Minghe has been practicing martial arts since he was a child and has sharp ears and eyes.
Things that are difficult for ordinary people to perceive are not difficult for him.
He heard Shen Yuling's pounding heartbeat and her rapid breathing due to fear.
Kwon Myung Hyuk followed the direction of the sound.
Step by step, I walked over.
His footsteps were light, like a ghost in the darkness.
Shen Yuling curled up in a corner, feeling that the silence in the palace was becoming increasingly frightening.
Quan Minghe walked around the large folding screen with twelve panels and five panels, which was an extremely exquisite huanghuali landscape painting.
And continue forward.
Reach out and lift up the hanging pillar curtain.
Shivering, Shen Yuling squatted in the corner, hugging herself with her arms.
Quan Minghe never imagined that a month ago, she was standing in front of him with a beautiful smile, wishing him a happy birthday.
But after a month, she actually treated him as a stranger.
How could he not feel angry after seeing such a change!
"stand up."
Quan Minghe's voice came from above Shen Yuling's head.
Shen Yuling didn't even dare to raise his head, and his body, which was originally squatting, suddenly knelt down.
"Your Majesty, please let me go. I...I don't remember what happened between us before."
"But my husband and I have a deep love for each other. I...I cannot do anything to betray my husband."
Shen Yuling's voice was obviously trembling, and her words were full of pleading.
Upon hearing this, Quan Minghe bent down.
Sneered.
He stretched out his hand and lifted Shen Yuling's chin up forcefully.
Forced her to look into his eyes.
He said coldly, "Deep love between husband and wife? Do you want me to help you recall how you and I fell in love?"
Shen Yuling didn't realize what he meant at first.
Just staring at him blankly.
But when she saw the playful yet cold look in his eyes.
Shen Yuling suddenly understood it with disbelief.
She...she and His Majesty actually have...
Shen Yuling shook her head desperately.
She murmured, "No, no, no... How is it possible? I am the princess of a county... I can't... I don't have..."
