Chen Fu said nothing, silently holding the imperial edict and walked towards the inner room.
Inside the Palace of Heavenly Purity, His Majesty was standing beside the desk. I don't know whether he is painting or practicing calligraphy.
Hearing the footsteps, His Majesty didn't even raise his head, but shouted directly to the people below: "Come here!"
Shen Fu's eyes flickered, and she slowed down her pace and walked forward.
"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you."
She bent down and was about to curtsey. The Emperor beside the desk reached out his hand and pulled her up: "You don't have to bow when you see me in the future."
"How can this be possible?"
Shen Fu looked at the hand of His Majesty that fell on her waist and smiled slightly.
"Your Majesty dotes on me, so I have to follow the rules."
His Majesty asked her not to perform the ceremony, but Shen Fu really couldn't do it.
As time goes by, who knows whether His Majesty will regret it in the future?
Chen Fu had a slight smile on her face: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
His Majesty turned around and his eyes fell on the imperial edict in her hand.
Only then did he look at Chen Fu, his eyes serious and full of concern.
"I have promoted you, are you happy?"
Shen Fu smoothed her hand holding the imperial edict, and then raised her head: "I am happy."
How could she not be happy when His Majesty promoted her?
“Currently, the only people above the position of concubine are you and Concubine Rong.” Xiao Yu stretched out his hand and held Chen Fu’s palm.
His eyes were heavy: "I should have given you this position of concubine a long time ago."
"You have stayed in the position of noble concubine for too long. Even after you gave birth to a prince, I did not promote you." His Majesty's tone was deep, and there was even guilt in his eyes when he looked at Chen Fu.
"I owe you all this."
Chen Fu only felt a warmth in the hand held by His Majesty, and the fingertips with thin calluses kept stroking the back of her hand.
She could sense the guilt in His Majesty's tone.
When she heard these words, she felt extremely familiar. His Majesty's words were so integrated with what Concubine Rong said in front of her today.
"Your Majesty, you don't have to say that." Chen Fu said, "Your Majesty has been good enough to me."
She was promoted to concubine in such a short period of time, and Shen Fu herself felt that her promotion was fast enough.
"What does Your Majesty want to say about what is owed or not owed?" Chen Fu deliberately raised the imperial edict in her hand:
"Besides, Your Majesty has promoted me to Consort today. From now on, I will sit with Consort Rong. What else does Your Majesty have to worry about?"
"Stand up and sit down?" Xiao Yu's eyes turned cold when he heard this, and he said directly: "She is worthy?!"
Without waiting for Shen Fu to show her surprised look after hearing this, he took Shen Fu's hand and walked to the desk, pointing at the words on it: "Look at these titles, which one do you like?"
Chen Fu was held by his hand, and when she looked over, she saw that the piece of paper that His Majesty was pointing at was filled with titles written by His Majesty.
"Virtue, virtue, wisdom, integrity, elegance..." Chen Fu looked at them one by one, and then couldn't help asking:
"What is your Majesty doing?"
"These are the titles I gave you." Xiao Yu held Chen Fu's hand and opened the imperial edict.
Chen Fu didn't see it just now, but now she sees it. There was a space left for the title on the imperial edict but it was not filled in.
"I don't know what you like, so I asked Lin An to pick you up and let you choose for yourself."
His Majesty held the brush and held Chen Fu's hand tightly: "Tell me which word you like, and I will fill it in with you."
Shen Fu was so shocked by these words that she was speechless.
This is an imperial edict, and His Majesty asked her to fill it out herself? Isn't this a child's play?
His Majesty may have noticed it and smiled gently.
"But after you came, I thought of another word."
"If you can't choose, I will take you to write together." The Emperor said, standing behind Shen Fu, holding Shen Fu's hand holding the brush.
With a stroke of his brush, he left the word "Zhao" on the imperial edict.
"Zhao Fei." The word Zhao is the title of the emperor.
