Yinzhen's face darkened again.
Su Peisheng glared at Zhang Defu with a wink, while Zhang Defu, looking miserable, cautiously ran out along the corner of the wall. He returned a moment later with a puzzled expression: "Your Majesty, the Imperial Noble Consort...the Imperial Noble Consort has gone to the Princes' quarters..."
"Why are you answering me! When did I ask! She can go wherever she wants!" Yinzhen suddenly stood up angrily, and he even kicked a small table, which sent the heavy pear wood flying far away on the ground with a "sizzle".
Su Peisheng was inwardly groaning. He didn't want to pray to gods or Buddhas now; he just wanted to beg the Imperial Noble Consort to have mercy on the Emperor. It really had been a long time since the Emperor had been so angry!
When the Emperor gets angry, it's likely that Old Su will be the one who suffers. He's having such a hard time!
But Yinzhen wasn't done after kicking the small table. He paced around the room like a caged beast, then suddenly stopped in front of Aruhan. After staring at her for a moment, he sneered and pinched the woman's face: "She doesn't care? Then tonight I will..."
He stopped abruptly before he could finish speaking, and after a moment said angrily, "What am I anyway! Why are you using yourself to upset her!"
Everyone: ...
Yinzhen muttered something again, then said no more. He disdainfully tossed aside Aruhan's face, turned around, and left through the gate of Suicheng Hall. Su Peisheng and the others naturally followed quickly.
Aruhan stood up in a daze and hurriedly took two steps after him: "Your Majesty!"
But the Emperor has already disappeared without a trace.
When Qian Shengyan touched Fergu Chun's rosy cheeks, she felt relieved only after sensing that he seemed alright. However, the smell of alcohol lingered on his body, which he couldn't hide even after washing up.
"Our princess is innocent and naive; we mustn't let her be fooled," Madam Geng sighed.
Qian Shengyan also sighed. She had left halfway through the banquet and was unaware that Fuerguochun had been pampered and forced to drink so much. She carefully tucked Fuerguochun in and instructed the palace servants on night watch to take good care of the princess. Then, Qian Shengyan got up and left the prince's quarters with Geng Shi: "Thank you for coming to inform me today."
"Oh, thank you for nothing. I just thought about it over and over again and felt that something was wrong... Why did Qiqige have to come to offer a toast at such an inopportune time? She even had to call the princess to come. I didn't think it at the time, but now that I think about it, it was extremely deliberate," Geng said in a low voice.
Qian Shengyan chuckled. Wasn't it deliberate? Their goal was to lure the Emperor out so he could encounter Aruhan.
