After Xiao Baozi announced the imperial edict, he immediately returned to report.
His Majesty is still in the Hehuan Palace.
When little Baozi passed away, His Majesty was staying there to have lunch with Concubine Zhao.
The servants in the imperial kitchen prepared a new hotpot of fresh bamboo shoots.
It is made from bone broth that has been simmered overnight. It is filled with ham, fresh bamboo shoots, mushrooms and other ingredients and simmered over low heat.
This dish was extremely delicious, and Shen Fu ate two small bowls in succession.
After seeing this, Xiao Yu hurriedly rewarded the servants in the imperial kitchen.
When little Baozi passed by, he happened to see the stewards of the imperial kitchen coming out happily.
Glancing at the gold ingots on the tray, Xiao Baozi's expression changed.
His Majesty hated the Shen family so much. Thinking about the scene just now, if he said it was more exciting at that time, maybe he could get a reward.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Baozi bent his knees and hurried in.
Inside the palace, Shen Fu was somewhat uninterested in this meal.
The palace maid who served her food behind her was not Shi Su at all, and her eyesight was not good enough, so most of the dishes she served her were not what Shen Fu liked.
Apart from the bowl of fresh bamboo shoot soup just now, Shen Fu didn't use much of the remaining food.
Seeing this, Xiao Yu personally picked up a shrimp for Chen Fu. Then he said to the visitor: "Has the Shen family received the order?"
Xiao Baozi quickly withdrew his gaze.
His Majesty really dotes on Concubine Zhao.
He lowered his eyes, nodded hurriedly and said: “The servant just came back from the Shen family, and Shen Changshan has received the order.”
Xiao Yu lowered his eyes slightly after hearing this.
He caught a glimpse of Shen Fu with her head down, her expression showing no emotion, but the shrimp he had picked up did not move at all.
"What was the situation of the Shen family at that time?" Xiao Yu reached out and picked up the shrimp intact.
He took the handkerchief beside him, wiped his hands, and lowered his head to peel the shrimp.
Xiao Baozi took a glance and was so scared that his throat rolled. He quickly lowered his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, the situation of the Shen family... doesn't seem to be very good."
When he came, he was still thinking about saying something exciting.
But in front of Shen Fu, Xiao Baozi didn't dare to speak casually anymore.
Queen Zhaofei is here. Who knows if she will be angry if he says something bad?
"not good?"
Xiao Yu was also looking at Shen Fu and put the shrimp in his hand back into Shen Fu's plate.
He then turned around and asked, "What's wrong with the bottom?"
Shen Changshan looked very calm when he left.
The character remains.
All he said was about his concubine, Cui Niang. Since he doesn't care about the honor and disgrace or the rise and fall of the Shen family, what will he do even if he is demoted?
Xiao Yu's eyes were full of interest.
Xiao Baozi raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his face, and then he reorganized his words: "When I came here, the Shen family was already in a mess."
He actually didn't have to say this.
Little Baozi was afraid that his father would blame him later, so he made a special condition.
Then he lowered his head again and continued, "After I issued the imperial edict, the old lady from the Shen family came to ask me if I was wrong."
Little Baozi still finds it unbelievable when he thinks about those words.
How shameless are these people from the Shen family?
It's obvious that he knows how much benefit he has gained.
They also knew that having Concubine Zhao in the palace brought them many conveniences.
But he pretended to be ignorant.
Little Baozi looked down on people like that the most. He sneered and repeated what Old Lady Shen said verbatim: "Old Lady Shen said that Concubine Zhao was favored by the emperor in the palace, and the Shen family was the mother's family of Concubine Zhao."
"How could His Majesty allow Shen Changshan to be demoted from his position?"
"It seems that she is not completely confused." Xiao Yu raised his hand and wiped his fingertips.
One face had quietly become gloomy.
He actually knew clearly what the Shen family was planning. I didn't care about it before, but it was only because of Shen Fu'er.
But now that we have taken action against the Shen family, we cannot leave any trouble behind.
Xiao Yu actually wanted the Shen family to stay away from Kyoto and never come back.
However, he was afraid that Shen Fu would have wild thoughts.
Just now, he had rejected her idea. Now he was talking about the situation of the Shen family leaving Kyoto because he was afraid that she would have wild thoughts.
Xiao Yu pondered for a long while before saying, "That means that the old lady of the Shen family clearly knew that I had a crush on Concubine Zhao, so she did it knowingly, didn't she?"
"I think so too." Little Baozi lowered his head, a smile on his face, "I said it was not wrong, Old Madam Shen fainted on the spot."
After hearing this, Xiao Yu first looked at Chen Fu.
After seeing that there was nothing unusual on her face, he spoke: "And then?"
"Then, Aunt Cui also fainted." Little Baozi smiled, thinking of the scene he had just seen, and couldn't help but sneered: "When I saw Master Shen, it was like the sky was falling."
"He didn't even have time to put down the imperial edict before he hurriedly hugged his concubine."
There was some silence in the room for a moment.
Xiao Yu didn't expect Chen Changshan to be like this.
It looked like he held his beloved concubine at the top of his heart.
He held the handkerchief and clenched his hands back and forth, and suddenly felt a little unhappy for Shen Fu.
Shen Fu is his daughter, but Shen Changshan never cares about her. Instead, he only cares about his concubine.
Where in the world can you find a father like this?
Although he wanted Xiao Baozi to say more about the mistakes of the Shen family, after he really heard them, he felt sorry for Shen Fu.
Shen Changshan is really going too far!
"I've used it well."
Chen Fu suddenly put down the chopsticks in her hand and stood up: "Your Majesty, please enjoy it slowly."
Little Baozi was thinking about talking about what was going on in the Shen family at that time.
Looking at Concubine Zhao's expression, he suddenly shut up.
"Damn you slave!"
I was thinking about having a good time just before I entered the door, but how come I suddenly forgot everything?
The little boy had a headache and rubbed his head. He knelt on the ground with his face turned pale with fear.
Xiao Yu didn't even look at the person on the ground. He glanced at Chen Fu's back as she walked away, and immediately caught up with her: "Get up."
"What's wrong?"
Xiao Yu followed Shen Fu in a hurry and caught a glimpse of Shen Fu walking behind the desk.
"Who made you angry? Why did you suddenly get angry while enjoying your meal?"
Xiao Yu walked over, placed his hands on Shen Fu's shoulders, and gently tightened them.
Shen Fu was held in his arms and struggled a little, but His Majesty was too strong, and Shen Fu could not break free even if she struggled a little: "Your Majesty, let me go."
She sat on the chair and struggled a little, but still had no strength.
After struggling hard for a long time, he was unable to break free from His Majesty's palm.
When Shen Fu raised her head, her eyes suddenly turned red.
Xiao Yu was trying to make her laugh, but when he saw Chen Fu's eyes suddenly turned red, he panicked instantly.
"What's wrong? This is..." Xiao Yu was so scared that he dropped his hand that was on her shoulder.
"Why are you crying for no reason?"
Shen Fu's eyes were lively to begin with, and now they were flushed, as if there was a lake of water in her dark pupils.
Looking at him with a look of grievance, it makes one's heart melt.
: "It's my fault. Did I just make you angry?"
Chen Fu hadn't cried yet, but Xiao Yu felt his heart tighten when he saw her tears: "It's all my fault."
His Majesty wants to hold her in his arms.
However, Chen Fu pressed her ground against Xiao Yu's chest to prevent him from hugging her: "Your Majesty, weren't those words just spoken to me?"
After Chen Fu finished speaking, she turned her head and her red eyes fell in front of Xiao Yu: "No one loves me anymore, and Your Majesty deliberately said this to me."
Chen Fu actually knew it clearly in her heart.
When His Majesty just said this to Xiao Baozi, he was actually saying it on purpose for her to hear.
She actually didn't understand at first.
But when his eyes fell on her every time his Majesty spoke a word, Shen Fu understood that his Majesty's words were meant for her to hear.
Just now, when she was testing His Majesty, she didn't even have time to mention the word Gu family.
His Majesty interrupted her.
Now he was deliberately using the Shen family's influence to tell her through Xiao Baozi's mouth.
I just want her to know.
There was no one behind him, so he wanted to completely dispel Shen Fu's irrelevant thoughts.
Let her know that there is no one behind her.
Chen Fu knew His Majesty too well, so it would be better for her to follow His Majesty's wishes.
"How come no one loves you?" Xiao Yu cried out that he was wronged: "I love you so much, how come no one loves you?"
In the entire harem, Concubine Zhao was the most favored. I'm not talking about other people, but everyone knows this.
Among the servants in the palace, who doesn't envy Chen Fu?
If people heard what Chen Fu said, wouldn't they all be shocked?
"If your everlasting favor, Concubine Zhao, says that no one loves her, then who else can I love in the entire harem?" Xiao Yu gently stroked Shen Fu's lower back, his voice hoarse.
"I am born with a bad fate. I have never been liked by others since I was young."
"Your Majesty, what you said to me just now was just... just to poke me in the heart, wasn't it?"
When she said this, her eyes were slightly lowered. Tears hung under the trembling eyelashes.
Her smart eyes were filled with tears, and when she looked at people, she felt her heart tighten.
"The Shen family doesn't like me, and my father doesn't like me either. I have so many children, and I have been raised in the Su family, and I have never even met my relatives."
The more Shen Fu spoke, the more aggrieved her voice sounded.
It can even be said that at the last moment, the tears that had been hanging in the bottom of the eyes finally fell.
A hot teardrop fell on Xiao Yu's palm, and he subconsciously let go of his hand: "How could it be."
What Shen Fu said was clearly what he wanted to hear.
But when the truth came out of Shen Fu's mouth, Xiao Yu felt that this was not what he wanted.
He just wanted Shen Fu to know that he was his backer, but making Shen Fu sad was not his original intention.
"It's all my fault. I shouldn't have said this in front of you."
"So what about the Shen family? So what about Shen Changshan?" In front of him, who has enough weight?
Xiao Yu looked at Chen Fu, caressing her with his fingertips tenderly: "You don't need anyone to like you, it's enough for me to like you."
Chen Fu looked into His Majesty's eyes and saw the firm determination in his eyes.
Her heart beat uncontrollably for a moment. After just a moment, everything returned to silence again.
No man in this world can be trusted.
No one is better than yourself, even the emperor.
If Shen Fu puts all her hopes and body on this man.
Then she might die earlier in this life than in her previous life.
"Your Majesty likes me, and I naturally know that." Chen Fu's heart was calm, but her face was full of emotion.
She lowered her head and said, "If it weren't for the protection of Your Majesty, how could I be where I am today?"
"I love you and pamper you, and it's also because I like you." Xiao Yu stroked Shen Fu's waist.
He felt a delicate touch on his palm, and he couldn't help but gasp.
It was clear that the person in his arms was already in his hands, but as long as he was not close to her for a day, Xiao Yu would feel uneasy in his heart.
The person in his arms was like a bird ready to escape at any time. If he wasn't careful, he wouldn't know where it would run to.
This is what Xiao Yu is most worried about.
"But, none of my blood relatives like me..." Chen Fu bit her lip, applying a little force with her pearly teeth, and a look of misery instantly appeared on her red lips.
"Sometimes I really don't understand how a father can be so cruel."
In fact, Shen Fu had already suspected this in her previous life.
Why is Shen Changshan so cruel to her?
As the saying goes, even a tiger won't eat its own cubs, but Shen Changshan has never been soft-hearted towards her.
Whether it was in the previous life or in this life.
The only daughter he loved was Shen Qingru, and he never treated her as his own daughter.
"Chen Changshan doesn't understand. I will let him know the consequences." Xiao Yu wiped the tears from the corners of Shen Fu's eyes with his fingertips.
He just felt that those hot tears seemed to burn his heart.
"You still have Zhen and Tuan'er." Xiao Yu gently patted Chen Fu'er's back: "With Zhen'er and Tuan'er here, what are you afraid of?"
Chen Fu raised her head and shook her head: "The concubine only has His Majesty."
She was so frail that she seemed to have no one to rely on. She leaned forward delicately and said, "If Your Majesty were gone, I wouldn't know how to cope with it."
Those tender words really greatly increased the man's sympathy.
Even His Majesty cannot avoid it.
Xiao Yu's eyes darkened, but he couldn't help himself.
The hand holding Shen Fu's waist tightened: "You only need me here."
Shen Fu didn't say anything, but just leaned her delicate body towards him.
"Afu." Xiao Yu's eyes darkened and he took a few deep breaths.
But he still lowered his head.
His breath fell on Shen Fu's ear, and his lips moved up from the corner of Shen Fu's lips, and then gently fell on the edge of Shen Fu's lips.
"I will treat you well from now on." Every word spoken by His Majesty was filled with love and affection.
But when Shen Fu heard these words, her heart was still calm.
