After learning of this, Emperor Shunzhi remained silent for a long time.
In a fit of anger, he burned all those letters.
Those letters that conveyed my longing...
Sherry had no idea of his inner turmoil and pain.
Just as he was about to cuddle with his younger sister to sleep, Shunzhi came in.
Bo Wengkuo: ⊙▽⊙
Sherry: ⊙▽⊙
Shunzhi: ⊙▽⊙
Ao Bai: ⊙﹏⊙
"Oh! The Emperor is here?!" Shirley flicked her handkerchief, realizing her tone was a bit off.
Yeah, like the top courtesan in those storybooks who entertains her clients...
Sherry thought she was quite clever; wasn't she just a madam in the harem?
"How dare you! Where are your manners, Empress of a nation?" Shunzhi must have taken the wrong medicine, venting his anger on Xue Li.
"What? You can hug me but I can't?!" Sherry said defiantly. Why couldn't she hug her sister?
Emperor Shunzhi was trembling with anger again.
"The Empress is disobedient—"
"Did you even say that? You've become a laughing stock and you still have the nerve to talk about others!" Sherry glared at him angrily and went into the bedroom.
Bo Wengkuo looked at Xue Li with concern, and Xue Li gave her a reassuring look before the little girl left under the cover of night.
"Borjigit! You! You!" Shunzhi strode in after her. "The Empress prays for the country's well-being. From this day forward, she shall copy scriptures to pray for blessings!"
It didn't take long...
Shunzhi was finally satisfied.
He knew all too well how to manipulate the Mongol empresses and concubines.
None of those illiterate people like to deal with books.
"Your Majesty, I obey!" Xue Li bowed coldly, then dragged Shunzhi into the palace and closed the door.
It seemed as if Shunzhi was just realizing what was happening.
I belatedly realized I was a little scared and was about to yell for help when someone tried to protect me.
Sherry then stuffed a handkerchief into his mouth!
Sherry has made up her mind: she'll consider it a loss if she can make him walk out standing up tomorrow.
Sherry simply covered Shunzhi's eyes and then began to plunder his cultivation techniques.
Shunzhi cried his eyes out, and Xue Li didn't stop.
However, at midnight, Wu Liangfu gave a reminder.
She was scolded by Sherry.
Wu Liangfu looked at Ao Bai with a pitiful expression, only to see Ao Bai's face dark and gloomy.
Emperor Shunzhi fainted from exhaustion, and Xue Li slapped him awake, repeating this process over and over again.
When I woke up again, it was already past midnight.
Wu Liangfu probably feared the emperor would be exhausted, so he would occasionally cause some disturbance.
Sherry did not disappoint him.
Another slap woke Shunzhi up, and then he went to take a bath.
When Shunzhi saw Wu Liangfu, he was so moved that he felt as if he had seen his own father, and his eyes welled up with tears.
"Help me back to the palace!"
Finally, Ao Bai carried the person onto the imperial carriage and returned to the Qianqing Palace.
After getting ready, Sherry happily went to sleep.
On the other side, Emperor Shunzhi's face was deathly pale, his eyes were dark-rimmed, and his lips were white, as if he were about to die.
Unable to even stand, Wu Liangfu and Ao Bai each supported one of his arms.
Shunzhi's legs trembled as if a butterfly were flapping its wings.
At this moment, Ao Bai was too preoccupied to be jealous.
He looked at Shunzhi with a puzzled expression.
After all, he shouldn't have gone to such lengths just because he was playing around with Sherry.
"Your Majesty, perhaps we should summon the imperial physician?" Wu Liangfu asked tentatively, his face full of worry.
Shunzhi hesitated.
Ao Bai was startled and hurriedly asked, "But if the imperial physician is summoned and the Emperor returns to the Qianqing Palace, what will people in the palace say...?"
Shunzhi thought of the rumors he had just suppressed.
Then he thought about how the Empress had bullied him so much that he almost couldn't stand up.
I tried hard to hold back my tears.
"Alright, bring me the Nourishing Essence Pill. I won't be attending court today!"
Emperor Shunzhi sat in the bathtub, sobbing uncontrollably.
He made up his mind; he would never go to Kunning Palace again.
He will kill the Empress one day!
Now, in his heart, there is Dong E Wan Yue, who humiliated him, and the Empress Dowager, who interfered in everything.
None of them hated him as much as this empress!
Emperor Shunzhi lay in bed, embracing the various punishments he had inflicted on the Empress, and drifted off to sleep.
The following day, everyone in the palace knew that the Empress was praying for the Qing Dynasty.
But the palace gates were locked! That clearly meant they were under house arrest.
The concubines were unaware of what had happened yesterday.
They assumed that the empress was being targeted because she had exposed the emperor's affair with a court official's wife.
Several others went to the Empress Dowager's palace to plead for the Empress.
Surprisingly, Bo Wengkuo and Consort Jing were also in the Empress Dowager's palace.
"Ha, only incompetent people always take their anger out on others!" Consort Jing scoffed as she drank her milk tea from her teacup.
The Empress Dowager's expression was rather unpleasant.
Does her son have the right to be told what to do?
"Oh? Consort Jing, what is it that you are dissatisfied with? Tell me." The Empress Dowager's face was cold and stern.
"Oh, how dare I!" Consort Jing gave a lazy bow and left.
The Empress Dowager closed her eyes in anger.
The concubines were so frightened they were like quails.
"Alright, step down! Everything is up to His Majesty to decide!" After saying this, the Empress Dowager looked at Bo Wengkuo to the side.
Bo Wengkuo left without expression.
The Empress Dowager soon developed a headache from anger.
Su Ma La Gu felt sorry for her and went to massage her.
"Princess, don't worry! Doesn't this just show that while our Empress is simple-minded, there are still people who appreciate her kindness?!"
"Have you found out? What exactly happened between the Empress and the Emperor yesterday?" The Empress Dowager was still puzzled.
After all, the emperor should have suppressed the rivalry between the mother and son, even if he wanted to.
Why are they under house arrest?!
"Perhaps, Her Majesty the Empress desires a prince?!" Su Mala Gu said rather tactfully.
The Empress Dowager suddenly realized that the Empress had carried the Emperor back to the palace.
It's like bandits coming down from the mountains to rob women.
