Chapter 198 Frame-up
As soon as Shen Fu walked out of the Qianqing Palace, she ran into Zhou Shuyun standing in the corner.
Zhou Shuyun's sky blue skirt was soaked by the rain. It covered her body in a semi-transparent manner, which made her slender figure look exquisite.
She stood timidly in the rain, looking extremely weak.
It’s already this late, and Zhou Shuyun hasn’t gone home yet?
Shen Fu raised her eyebrows, full of doubt, and moved her eyes away from Zhou Shuyun's slender figure. After hesitating for a while, she finally followed.
Only when they reached the green tiles and red walls did Shen Fu see the clue.
How could Zhou Shuyun be unwilling to go back? It was obvious that he was blocked in place.
At the other end of the bluestone slab, Concubine Wang led a large group of people and blocked their way with their hands.
She was very arrogant. Four or five people stood in a row, surrounding Lady Zhou and not allowing her to leave.
I don't even know when it started, but the light drizzle fell on people's heads, and their hair was completely soaked by the rain.
"My lady, would you like me to go over and clear the way?" Xiao Guizi was holding an oil-paper umbrella, but half of her body was soaked by the rain.
This road was the way out of the Qianqing Palace. Concubine Wang stopped Concubine Zhou halfway, and also happened to block Chen Fu.
If you want to go out, you have to let these two people move aside first.
Now that Concubine Zhou can't leave, Chen Fu naturally can't leave either.
I just came out of the Palace of Heavenly Purity, so it’s not a good idea to go back the same way.
"No need." Shen Fu glanced at the two people in front of her, then shook her head.
But I just felt curious in my heart.
Zhou Shuyun and Concubine Wang have been together since they entered the palace and have never been separated.
I don’t know what happened today, but the two of them started arguing in front of the gate of the Qianqing Palace?
Those coming and going are all servants, but the two of them are arguing at the gate of the Qianqing Palace. Aren't they afraid that it will reach the ears of the Emperor?
Shen Fu raised her eyebrows and walked over with an umbrella. As soon as he got closer, he heard Lady Wang's sharp voice: "You are really a vixen. I haven't done anything to you yet, but you are acting so pitiful here."
Lady Wang's mouth is so foul that even the word "foul mouth" cannot describe it.
She speaks to the heart of people as soon as she opens her mouth, and she doesn't care about other people's mood, as long as she feels happy.
"Don't you even look down at your own face? You look so ordinary. Do you think that the Emperor will really like you just because you come here?"
Zhou Shuyun obviously didn't want to pay attention to her, and she had been standing in the rain for a long time. Her body was trembling and she was really exhausted.
"Sister, this is the entrance to the Palace of Heavenly Purity. His Majesty is still inside."
Zhou Shuyun took a deep breath, calmed herself down and tried to persuade Lady Wang: "If you have anything to say, let's go back and talk. If we continue like this, it will be bad for both you and me."
The Emperor would not come out yet, but Zhou Shuyun felt worried when she thought of Chen Fu inside.
She really didn't think too much when she came. She didn't expect that she would be bumped into by Shen Fu when she came to see His Majesty alone for the first time.
When Zhou Shuyun thought of the scene in the Qianqing Palace just now, she felt extremely regretful.
Chen Fu and she are considered good friends in the harem. Although their friendship is not that deep, it is much better than just an acquaintance.
Seeing how favored His Majesty is to Shen Fu, it would be beneficial to be on good terms with Shen Fu. It's a pity that she has miscalculated now.
Zhou Shuyun felt extremely angry when she thought about what had just happened in the hall. In the end, she was just unlucky. She was caught by Shen Fu after just doing it once.
In the future, between her and Shen Fu...
When Zhou Shuyun thought of this, she felt extremely upset. He even lost his previous patience towards the beautiful lady Wang in front of him.
"I've already spent an hour here with you. If we continue like this, both you and I will get sick. If you have anything to say, let's go back and talk about it."
Zhou Shuyun walked forward and was about to leave, but just as she took a step forward, Concubine Wang reached out and pushed her away forcefully.
"You still want to leave?"
Lady Wang used her palms to strike hard, showing no mercy at all. The palm was so strong that it almost pushed Zhou Shuyun to the ground.
After being pushed like this, Zhou Shuyun, who was already not standing straight, staggered a few times and took several steps back before she finally stood firm.
"what you do?!"
Zhou Shuyun was pushed down again and again. No matter how good-tempered one is, he would be really angry at this moment.
She turned her head suddenly and looked back with red eyes.
"It is precisely because of our mutual friendship that I tolerate you again and again."
"I hope Sister Wang won't push your luck."
"I am asking for more?" Zhou Shuyun's words had just fallen when Lady Wang got really angry.
She looked at Zhou Shuyun with her foxy eyes, full of hatred: "Who is pushing the envelope, you or me?"
Concubine Wang shouted angrily. As the raindrops fell, she walked over with clattering steps:
"Today, His Majesty came to summon me. If you hadn't taken my place while I was sick, would you have been able to see His Majesty?"
"Who do you think you are? You've been in the palace for such a long time, and you haven't even seen His Majesty alone. Do you think you can seduce Him by performing a song for Him?"
When Lady Wang thought of this, she felt extremely regretful.
She just happened to catch a cold a while ago, but she didn't expect that it was because of this that she lost the opportunity to serve the Emperor!
What kind of regret is this? !
Concubine Wang was so angry when she thought of this: "The eunuch from the Qianqing Palace came to see me, and you came here to replace me, and you won't let me speak?"
Lady Wang has said this countless times, and Zhou Shuyun has also explained it countless times.
Now I just feel tired.
The Emperor said he wanted to listen to some music, but the servants in the Palace of Heavenly Purity couldn't find anyone for a while. Then they remembered that Concubine Wang was able to find their palace because she could play music.
"You were indeed not there at that time, and I didn't deliberately replace you." Zhou Shuyun patiently explained.
The young eunuch just asked her if she could play music. Zhou Shuyun nodded when she remembered that she could play the pipa.
However, she didn't expect to be pulled over by the little eunuch and directly taken to the Qianqing Palace.
"I didn't know at the time that it was His Majesty who was playing the music."
"Are you kidding me?"
Lady Wang heard these words so many times, but she didn't hear a single word of them.
"The first person the young eunuch asked when he came was me. You have clearly taken advantage of my favor today." After receiving the news, Concubine Wang hurried over but unexpectedly Zhou Shuyun had already arrived at the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
She hurried as fast as she could but still couldn't catch up. When I thought about how Zhou Shuyun had just spent such a long time with the Emperor in there.
Concubine Wang seemed to be ignited with anger. She reached out and grabbed Zhou Shuyun: "Come with me to see His Majesty."
"Go to see His Majesty and explain to him face to face how you have been so scheming and how you have been plotting step by step to take away my favor."
Lady Wang grabbed Zhou Shuyun's hand and was about to rush forward. Just as she stepped over the stairs, she happened to run into Chen Fu.
Chen Fu was listening at the door in confusion, and was frightened by Lady Wang's charge and almost fell down.
"My lady." Zi Su was so frightened that she quickly reached out her hand to support Chen Fu.
"Lady Wang, please be careful." Zi Su supported Chen Fu steadily, and she finally felt relieved.
After seeing that Shen Fu was safe and sound, he could not help but say to Lady Wang:
"What should we do if a red-haired and white-faced person rushes out like this and scares our young master?"
Lady Wang pulled Zhou Shuyun forward, and naturally she didn't notice Chen Fu was here at all.
She was startled by Zi Su's voice at first, and it took a while for her to come back to her senses.
"Who am I to think it is?"
If Wang Ruer hated Zhou Shuyun, then she hated Chen Fu.
After all, Zhou Shuyun just met the Emperor and played a song. As for what impression His Majesty has of her, whether he likes her or not, that is pure nonsense.
But Shen Fuke is different.
At the beginning, she was the first one to be favored among the three people, and she was also the first to serve the Emperor.
But her grace is like a flash in the pan, fleeting.
As for Chen Fu, it was clear that she was favored later than herself, and she was not the first one to serve the Emperor.
But the Emperor seemed to be poisoned by her and showed her great favor and love in every way.
She rose all the way from the position of Ronghua to her current position as a concubine. I am so blessed that I wish I could hold you in my palm.
What's worse is that he only went to her some time ago and doted on her for several months in a row, and she almost became the only one favored in the harem.
"Who did I think it was? It turned out to be Concubine Shen who has fallen from favor?"
Lady Wang was not very friendly towards Zhou Shuyun, who lived with her. She was not necessarily very respectful to Chen Fu, who was much higher in status than her.
She relied on the fact that she was the first among the concubines to serve the Emperor, and she was always proud of it and felt that her status was special.
"Your Majesty, you are in a good mood today. Not only did you meet Lady Zhou, but you also met Concubine Shen, who has been out of favor for a long time?"
Lady Wang stepped forward gracefully in her embroidered shoes and said, "It seems that today is a good day. Otherwise, how come everyone has received the favor of His Majesty?"
As Lady Wang spoke, her jealous eyes fell on Shen Fu without blinking.
She felt both hatred and jealousy towards Shen Fu, but jealousy was the most important thing.
While they were racking their brains to even meet the Emperor, Chen Fu had already been in love with the Emperor.
How could she not be jealous? How not to envy? a
"It doesn't matter whether I am out of favor or in favor." Chen Fu was unwilling to pay attention to Lady Wang.
The road was slippery due to the rain, and Concubine Wang and her men blocked the door, but they only blocked her way.
She was too lazy to say a word to Lady Wang and was about to reach out to tell Xiao Guizi to clear the people. Just as Chen Fu raised her wrist, she caught a glimpse of a black robe in the corner.
In this harem, the only one who can wear black robes is His Majesty.
Could it be that as soon as she went out, the Emperor followed her?
Shen Fu's heart moved slightly, and her eyes fell on Zhou Shuyun in front of her again.
From the beginning to now, Zhou Shuyun has remained calm in the face of danger and has spoken with reason and evidence.
Even though he was soaked by the rain, his demeanor was not diminished at all.
If His Majesty had been here from the beginning, he would have seen Concubine Wang's madness clearly. On the contrary, His Majesty also saw clearly the demeanor of Concubine Zhou.
No wonder Zhou Shuyun became Shen Qingru's mortal enemy in her previous life.
He has an extraordinary bearing, is fearless in the face of danger, and has an impressive family background.
Nowadays, the concubines in the harem are dwindling, and people like Zhou Shuyun are like a pale chrysanthemum, who is not interested in worldly affairs but can gradually enter the eyes of His Majesty.
A trace of worry flashed through Chen Fu's mind. When she came to her senses, she smiled at Lady Wang and said:
"Whether I am out of favor or in favor, my status is higher than yours, and you should always show respect when you see me."
If this had happened in the past, even if Concubine Wang hated Chen Fu in her heart, she would not dare to disrespect her openly.
But today, Concubine Wang was so angry that she lost her mind. She let go of Zhou Shuyun's hand and looked up and down at Chen Fu with contempt.
"Who did I think it was? Concubine Shen who had fallen from favor." Lady Wang said:
"It's been more than a month since His Majesty stayed at your place. What's wrong? Is he anxious?"
"Is it possible that I have been delivered to His Majesty in broad daylight?"
When Lady Wang finished speaking, she glanced at Chen Fu with contempt. Chen Fu's slender waist is as graceful as a willow tree, and her posture is light and charming.
Such a pretty face and such an alluring figure just by standing there, this was something she would never ask for.
Concubine Wang was so jealous and envious that she looked at Shen Fu and wished she could press her face on herself.
The naked look in her eyes was so terrifying that Zi Su was so scared that she immediately stepped forward and put her hands in front of Shen Fu.
To Lady Wang: "You are going too far. How dare you say that about our young master!"
His Majesty did not stay overnight only because the young lady was pregnant.
In addition, due to the war in the northwest during this period, His Majesty was busy with official duties and went to the Hehuan Palace less often.
But when these people heard it, it became a reason to bully the young lady.
Zi Su stretched out her hand and pointed at Lady Wang: "Do you believe that I will report this to His Majesty and let Him punish you for your disrespect?"
"Do you think I'm afraid?" Lady Wang smiled contemptuously at Chen Fu and slapped Zi Su's hand away:
"A good dog doesn't block the road, get out of my way."
Concubine Wang waved away Zi Su's hand and pulled Concubine Wang forward.
Chen Fu looked at Lady Wang like this, her eyes turned to her lower abdomen, and she thought of the scene she had just seen out of the corner of her eye.
Just when I was about to fall asleep, Lady Wang brought me a pillow.
She doesn't have much time left.
Rather than being exposed in the future and accused of faking pregnancy to win favor.
Wouldn't it be better if he was discovered today?
Besides, His Majesty is here, and Chen Fu doesn't believe that Concubine Wang will really hurt herself.
How can you get a tiger cub without learning the tiger's training?
Shu Guipin's birthday is in the next two days, and Chen Fu really can't think of a solution.
Thinking of this, Shen Fu decided to go all out. Facing Lady Wang’s angry face, she stepped forward and said, “Lady Wang…”
Lady Wang didn't care about Chen Fu at all now, she just waved her hand to push her away.
"Get out of my way!"
Shen Fu screamed in shock when she saw the right timing, and her steps staggered. His whole body was shaking, his knees went weak and he fell backwards.
"My young master!"
Xiao Yu, who was watching the show far behind, was so angry when he saw this scene that he rushed out quickly and hugged her.
"Shen Fu!"
