Chapter 44 Testing
As soon as His Majesty disappeared, Shen Qingru walked towards the dark room angrily.
Fengchun followed behind her and when he saw the young lady's expression, he immediately sent all the palace maids away from the room.
"My lady." Fengchun followed behind to comfort her, but with a bang, the door of the dark room was pushed open, and Shen Qingru herself fell silent.
The room was so dark that even the daytime seemed gloomy.
Chen Fu was lying on the faded long table, her palm-sized face pressed against it as she slept soundly.
She was still wearing the dress she had worn yesterday. Its plain skirt was piled up at her waist and abdomen, and was torn into pieces in many places visible to the naked eye.
Following the tattered hem, one could see the snow-white skin underneath. Scattered traces are left on it, like white snow and red plum blossoms, dotted like stars.
Even though Shen Qingru was mentally prepared, she still felt weak when she saw this scene.
She stopped and held on to the door frame to steady herself. Fengchun came up behind her and tried to support her, but Shen Qingru waved her hand away and said, "Wake her up."
Fengchun had no choice but to go.
Shen Fu was sleeping soundly when she was woken up by the shaking. She opened her eyes and yawned boredly: "Eldest sister."
After shouting all night, his voice had become a little hoarse. Shen Fu opened her eyes slightly, looked at Shen Qingru and said, "Eldest sister, why are you calling me?"
There was still a hint of softness in her delicate voice, and Shen Fu's indifferent look made Shen Qingru even more angry.
"You." With trembling fingertips, Shen Qingru picked up the clothes beside her and covered Shen Fu with them, then said, "Get up."
The dress was torn to pieces by His Majesty, and Shen Fu didn't even have time to change.
When she is lying down, her face is half covered, and when she stands up, she is even more charming and beautiful.
The skin exposed under the plain dress is dazzlingly white. There were dots of red marks extending from the collar to the waist, and at a glance there were so many marks that it was impossible to count them.
Shen Qingru stared at Shen Fu blankly, looking her up and down countless times.
Even though she heard some noise last night, it was far less glaring and eye-catching than the marks on Shen Fu's body.
Every mark, every kiss mark, even the marks left by pinching with the fingertips, are proof of His Majesty's love for Chen Fu.
It is enough to show how much His Majesty loves Shen Fu.
"Why are you looking at me like that, elder sister?" Shen Fu left her collar open, and only tied up her clothes slowly after making sure that Shen Qingru could see clearly.
But she could cover her body but not her face.
One night passed, like a crabapple after rain, Shen Fu's face was moist. There is a strong spring color in her hazy and innocent eyes, which makes her look particularly delicate, charming and attractive.
Shen Qingru suffered a series of blows throughout the morning and almost forgot what she wanted to say.
She took a few deep breaths, then she remembered, "You...you left teeth marks on His Majesty yesterday."
There are rules for the concubines in the harem to sleep with the emperor, and such things are absolutely not allowed to happen.
When Shen Qingru thought of the red mark on His Majesty's neck during breakfast, she felt dizzy in front of her eyes.
"Don't do such unruly things again!"
When Shen Fu heard her matter-of-fact words, she felt amused again deep down.
No rules? Shen Qingru concealed her own dirty thoughts and asked me to sleep with her instead. That was really unruly!
"But...but." Knowing what Shen Qingru hated the most, Shen Fu insisted on doing it.
The corners of her eyes trembled, and tears welled up in her eyes. She looked at Shen Qingru with an innocent and timid look: "But Your Majesty is really too..."
The next words were really hard to say, Shen Fu covered her lips, choked with sobs, and trembled: "Shen Fu really can't refuse."
Shen Fu was crying here, and her hoarse voice immediately reminded her of how she cried timidly last night.
Shen Qingru looked at Shen Fu's face in front of her and wanted to slap her in the face several times.
But his palms were shaking with anger, but he still didn't dare to do it.
"I... I didn't say anything about you." As soon as she opened her mouth, Shen Fu cried louder. Shen Qingru was annoyed to death. She wanted to hit her but didn't dare to. She was helpless in the face of Shen Fu.
She rubbed her brows with a headache and said helplessly: "Be more careful next time."
****
Shen Fu successfully pissed Shen Qingru off to death, and only then did she walk out of Changqiu Palace in a good mood.
Only when she arrived at Fu Yu Pavilion did she truly examine her body. She lifted up her skirt and the scattered marks inside looked even more horrifying than the first night.
Not only were there numerous red tooth marks, but some of the finger marks had already turned black and blue.
Zi Su burst into tears as soon as she saw him: "Girl, how could His Majesty do this to you."
When Shen Fu heard this, her hand pinching the hem of her skirt paused.
To be honest, His Majesty was extremely cruel to her last night. I served His Majesty so many times in my previous life, but last night was the most brutal one.
Like a reckless wolf, he wanted to tear her apart and eat her immediately.
No matter how she begged, the Emperor refused to let her go.
Shen Fu's fingertips were still weak when she thought of what happened last night. But at the same time, he also understood in his heart that the Emperor was really angry last night.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have been like this.
"Girl?" Zi Su knelt on the ground and cried. Seeing that the young lady didn't react, she looked at her with concern.
Shen Fu came to her senses and immediately persuaded him a few words, and it took a long time to explain that it didn't hurt. But when the dress was untied, revealing the marks on her knees, Zi Su couldn't help herself after all.
"Girl, did His Majesty punish you to kneel last night?"
Following Zi Su's finger, Shen Fu felt her face getting hot.
She knelt for quite a while last night, but this kind of kneeling was not that kind of kneeling. Besides, His Majesty said that this was a punishment.
Chen Fu's waist softened and she immediately got into the bathtub. The warm water rushed into my body, and I felt a surge of heat all over.
While her body felt comfortable, she felt a secret feeling between her legs that made her feel a little embarrassed to talk about it.
Shen Fu coughed twice, but couldn't help but speak: "Go to the Imperial Hospital and get some plasters."
The rest of the body was fine, even the ankle that was held by His Majesty was intact.
The only thing that was causing her pain between her legs was unbearable, and Shen Fu could even feel the slight swelling sensation.
The hot water became more and more unbearable.
Zi Su nodded obediently and asked, "Is your leg hurting again? I'll go get it for you."
"no."
Zi Su was still an unmarried pure girl, her eyes full of ignorance.
Meeting those eyes, Shen Fu didn't know how to explain. He took a deep breath, and the words seemed to be squeezed out of his throat: "It needs to have the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis."
Zi Su didn't understand at first, but after a while her face turned red.
She stared at Chen Fu blankly for a few seconds, then ran out in a hurry: "I'll go get it right away...right away."
Zi Su left like the wind, leaving Chen Fu in the bathtub.
Just when I was about to take a nap, there was a knock on the door.
"Miss Fu, Miss Fu is here."
The voice of the person who came was unfamiliar, but it was also deep and powerful. Chen Fu couldn't figure out who this was for a moment, so she had to get out of the bathtub.
After the clothes were put on, Shen Fu called, "Come in."
The person who came in was a maid. She walked briskly and it was obvious that she was skilled in martial arts. She didn't even raise her eyes after she came in. She just stood behind the screen and said, "Miss, the emperor sent me to get something for you."
"Your Majesty?" Shen Fu raised her eyebrows, "What did Your Majesty ask you to come and deliver?"
The nanny handed over the thing in her hand, and Chen Fu opened it and saw that it was filled with plasters.
If you look closely, you will find that several of the bottles are for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.
"Why did His Majesty ask you to deliver this?" Chen Fu pretended to be stupid and put down the porcelain bottle.
The maid didn't even raise her head and said directly, "Your Majesty asked me to send it. I don't know either."
"It's just that His Majesty has ordered that the young lady go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity later."
After saying this, the nanny left, leaving behind a whole box of ointments.
When Zi Su came back, Chen Fu was already dressed: "My lady."
She put down the plaster in her hand and said, "My lady, are you feeling unwell? Where are you going now?"
After Chen Fu got dressed, she went out to play, holding Zi Su's hand and only had time to say, "Ganqing Palace."
The Qianqing Palace was heavily guarded, and when Chen Fu went there, it seemed as if someone had specifically greeted her, so she had no obstructions along the way.
When we arrived at the Palace of Heavenly Purity, the hall was completely silent. Looking inside, the house was empty, without even a single person in sight.
Chen Fu looked around and immediately asked the eunuch who led the way: "Excuse me, sir, where is the emperor now?"
She is young and so charming that one can't take their eyes off her. The young eunuch blushed at her shouting, and shook his head, saying, "I...I don't know either."
Seeing that she couldn't get any answers, Shen Fu had no choice but to wait there.
To be honest, she probably guessed why His Majesty called her over. It's just that the Emperor recognized her last night, but she just didn't admit it.
Today, His Majesty is probably just thinking of giving her another chance to confess?
Leaving her here alone at this time is just to make her stand in the corner as punishment?
Shen Fu lowered her head, feeling only amused. His Majesty's behavior is more like that of a strict brother treating his ignorant sister.
She found it funny, and the anxiety on her face was much less.
Behind the screen, Xiao Yu sat on the dragon throne, looking forward with a fierce gaze, his eyes fell on Shen Fu.
From head to toe, inch by inch, that gaze seemed to be looking into Shen Fu's heart.
Naturally, he also saw the smile in Shen Fu's eyes.
A quick look at Chen Fu tells you that she is not as well-behaved as she appears. No matter how well Chen Fu pretends, the cleverness between her eyebrows cannot deceive anyone.
Just like the birds in the bamboo forest, they are extremely lovable.
But he had always wanted the bird to stand obediently in his palm, but he never expected that she had actually flown into his arms.
Last night, Chen Fu fell into his arms, crying weakly and timidly.
But he never forgot to call her "concubine".
Is she serving sincerely or is she being forced?
When Xiao Yu thought of this, he felt unhappy, and even the look in his eyes when he looked at Chen Fu became less fierce.
Lin An was holding the teacup beside him, and his hand holding the teacup was shaking slightly when he saw this.
He hadn't seen His Majesty like this for a long time, and he didn't know why. Thinking about what the Emperor had asked him to investigate this morning, Lin An’s mind was in turmoil.
His gaze shifted from Shen Fu in front of him, and then he thought of Shen Qingru in Changqiu Palace.
If this is true, the Shen family is too bold.
Lin An was so frightened that his hand holding the teacup was slightly flustered. Behind the screen, Chen Fu heard the slight movement and raised her head and walked forward: "Your Majesty?"
I have to say that Shen Fu was very perceptive. Even with just the slightest sound, she was sure that the person was there.
The pair of misty eyes looked over, but fortunately they were covered by the screen.
Xiao Yu glared at Lin An fiercely, and gently put down his legs that were resting on the stool.
As soon as the footsteps landed, Shen Fu immediately became alert. His body, which had been unstable at first, immediately straightened up, and even his appearance became much more well-behaved.
Xiao Yu had never seen such a pleasing woman. A smile flashed across his dark eyes. After coughing lightly, he walked forward with a stern face.
"Your Highness, I am your humble servant, Chen Fu." When Chen Fu saw him approaching, she immediately knelt down and saluted.
The plain dress could not conceal her elegance, and she was very polite when she knelt down to salute.
But last night she kept calling him concubine and kept clinging to him, refusing to let go.
Today, at dawn, she turned her back on me and became my servant, so far away from me.
Xiao Yu's eyebrows twitched slightly, and his gaze towards Chen Fu became a little deeper.
Shen Fu knelt on the ground, her body standing straight. Below the slender waist, the legs are as long as jade.
Xiao Yu's eyes darkened as he stroked the jade ring with his fingertips. He didn't say until he saw the legs trembling slightly, "Get up."
The plain skirt swayed slightly for a few times, and Shen Fu stood up: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Chen Fu looked down, not daring to look up. She looked so well-behaved, which was very different from how clingy she was last night.
Xiao Yu didn't like this distance, and he disliked Chen Fu's deliberate evasive attitude even more.
He rubbed his jade ring impatiently and said calmly, "Do you know why I called you here today?"
“Your servant…” Shen Fu lowered her head, her eyes falling on the white marble lotus-patterned bricks in front of her.
His Majesty already knew that the person last night was herself, so now Shen Fu not only had to pretend, but also had to pretend to be convincing and to satisfy His Majesty.
"Please... please give me some advice, Your Majesty." Her voice trembled slightly, and she was nervous and a little uneasy.
The two hands on her chest were also mixed together, and she acted like a little girl: "I don't know, please tell me, Your Majesty."
"Heh..." Chen Fu's expression did not escape Xiao Yu's eyes at all.
His eyes fell on the tangled hands, and he immediately remembered how these hands had been wrapped around him and around his neck last night.
Let him do whatever he wants to her.
"You don't know?" His Majesty's aura suddenly turned cold, but his eyes looking down were gentle.
His eyes fell on Shen Fu, and he opened his thin lips and said lightly: "Come up."
Shen Fu looked up in surprise.
He met His Majesty's half-smiley gaze and said, "Something bit my neck. Come here and let me take a look."
