Chapter 90
"That's utter nonsense!" Xu Heming's face darkened upon hearing this!
If someone with ulterior motives were to hear these words, they might accuse him of having licentious behavior in the harem.
Not to mention, he didn't know the woman in front of him at all, and even if he did, he couldn't possibly have any relationship with her.
After all, he could have any woman he wanted, so why should he covet the emperor's concubines?
This is a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of one's family.
He cherishes his life very much.
"Xu Lang, don't you recognize me? I'm Ruyan! Have you forgotten? Before I entered the palace, you liked me the most." Liu Ruyan was unwilling to accept the fact that Xu Heming didn't remember her.
After all, she longed for Xu Heming and only wanted to marry him.
How can you not remember yourself?
How can you not love yourself?
No, he must love himself.
She's just too attached to her current status to admit it.
With red eyes, Liu Ruyan looked at Xu Heming with a stubborn expression, as if she would not let the matter rest until Xu Heming explained himself clearly.
"Your Majesty, I am truly not acquainted with this lady!" Xu Heming turned around and saw Zhu Jingchen not far away, and said in an annoyed tone.
Feeling helpless, whoever's woman this is, should be the one to appease her.
He didn't know this person at all.
His only worry was that if this crazy woman said something she shouldn't have, and the emperor really thought he had an affair with her, then he would never be able to clear his name, no matter how hard he tried.
“Uncle, my father really doesn’t know this wicked woman!” Xu Qingshi quickly stepped forward and said.
"Qingshi, are you alright?" Zhu Jingchen asked, looking displeased.
Even if Xu Heming and Liu Ruyan really had nothing going on, she was still his concubine. It was unacceptable for his concubine to say that she loved another man in front of him.
Zhu Jingchen was very unhappy.
"Uncle, thankfully my father arrived in time, otherwise you might have seen Qing Shi's corpse. Uncle, Qing Shi was so scared."
Xu Qingshi was a clever child. He looked at Zhu Jingchen with a wronged expression, as if he wanted Zhu Jingchen to punish Liu Ruyan.
Liu Ruyan was taken aback when she heard Zhu Jingchen's voice.
Then he burst into wild laughter.
I understand now. That's good. If Xu Heming hadn't married Zhou, I wouldn't have gone to the palace in a fit of anger.
She had no desire to be a concubine; she only did so to have a chance to deal with Zhou Shi.
There was no way she could enter the palace.
Now that Lady Zhou is dead, and Prince An intends to take a concubine, shouldn't you be the most suitable person to marry her?
"Your Majesty, I think this Consort Liu might be suffering from delusions?" the Empress said uncertainly, looking at the somewhat deranged Liu Ruyan.
"Guards, escort Consort Liu back to Ruyan Palace to await further orders!" Zhu Jingchen gave the order, and soon men rushed in from behind.
"Xu Lang, you are mine, you are mine!"
As she left, Liu Ruyan completely disregarded the Emperor and Empress, instead shouting outside.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Empress, please restore my lady's innocence!" Cai'er knelt before the two men, crying and pleading.
"If I remember correctly, you are Cai'er, who serves Consort Jing?" The Empress looked at Cai'er and said somewhat uncertainly.
"Since Your Majesty has family matters to resolve, then this humble subject will take Zhiwei and Qingshi back first." Xu Heming's tone was not very good. After all, being suddenly asked to perform that kind of show was already embarrassing enough.
He almost caused his future queen and son to be beaten to death.
