Chapter 489: Being spoiled and becoming arrogant (1/2)



His Majesty's words came down with great force, almost knocking Shen Fu to a crisp.

She raised her hand and put it down silently, Shen Fu looked at He Congzhi behind her.

Somehow it felt like I didn't know him.

He never said it to himself.

Besides, what portrait?

Chen Fu turned her head and looked behind her blankly.

He Congzhi seemed to know that she was looking at him.

When his eyes met 㱕's, he actually looked away.

Shen Fu's heart sank to the bottom in an instant.

"Look for yourself!" Xiao Yu looked at Chen Fu like this and knew that she had been kept in the dark.

The anger in his heart subsided a little, but that didn't stop him from being still angry.

Xiao Yu took the scroll on the table and moved down step by step.

Until he came to Shen Fu's side, he placed the scroll in front of her: "Look for yourself."

If Chen Fu was still harboring fantasies just now.

It wasn't until Ruyi looked at the scroll handed to her by His Majesty and saw the person in the painting clearly that Shen Fuyi's heart sank a little bit.

The person in this painting is indeed myself.

Chen Fu opened the scroll with trembling hands, and gently touched the scroll with her fingertips.

A woman in a goose yellow skirt was sitting on a chair playing the piano, her face slightly lowered, with a hint of charm and innocence between her eyebrows.

This was a painting that Shen Fu drew when she was ten years old.

At that time, she was still in Suzhou, and the Jiaoweiqin in her hand was brought to her by her second uncle when he came.

After seeing the figure on the scroll, a hint of nostalgia emerged between Shen Fu's eyebrows.

"This painting was drawn by my grandfather..." Shen Fu's fingers lingered and fell on it.

Just as he was stroking it, the scroll in front of him was snatched away by someone.

Xiao Yu lowered his head and looked at the nostalgia in Chen Fu's eyes, and felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife.

But he still pulled the scroll out.

"I didn't give you this painting to make you miss it here."

What’s more, Shen Fu’s face was covered with tears.

Xiao Yu's eyebrows tightened slightly: "Besides, how did your painting end up with He Congzhi?"

Chen Fu also turned her head and looked towards He Congzhi.

Those hazy eyes were full of exploration.

For a moment, He Congzhi was a little afraid to look up at him: "This scroll was given to me by Master Gu."

He Congzhi knelt on the ground, his throat unable to clench and a bit bitter.

He thought he wouldn't cause her any trouble.

But now looking back, it still caused her trouble.

He Congzhi sighed deeply.

"At that time, I didn't know what my fiancée looked like..." When He Congzhi said the word 'fiancée', Xiao Yu's eyes flashed with hoarseness.

"That's why the old man of the Gu family gave me this portrait."

In fact, this portrait was obtained from He Congzhi.

The Gu family was reluctant to give it to him at that time, but only after they saw that he had the token of trust that Gu Xizhu had given them, did they agree to give it to him.

But later, He Congzhi still asked for it. Take this scroll to Kyoto to look for someone.

Even before he met Shen Fu, he had already fallen deeply in love with the person in the portrait.

Speaking of this, He Congzhi felt ashamed of himself.

Therefore, he kept this matter in his heart and didn't tell anyone.

His love for Chen Fu was not purely erotic at all.

He thought that Shen Fu was his arranged wife, and also that the person in the painting made him fall in love with her at first sight.

"It's just that this portrait is used by this humble official to find someone."

He Congzhi kowtowed and knelt on the ground: "The rest of us don't have any ideas at all, please investigate thoroughly, Your Majesty."

The room suddenly became quiet.

Only on the candlestick in the southeast corner, the candle flame was flickering slightly.

He Congzhi knelt on the ground, his face full of determination.

Xiao Yu's eyes fell on him, his fists clenched tightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Long live the Lord."

Shen Fu bit her lip as she looked at He Congzhi's appearance.

Turning around, she reached out and grabbed the hem of His Majesty's clothes: "I believe in Doctor He."

Chen Fu didn't know what He Congzhi was thinking.

She didn't want to know either.

She was the Emperor's concubine, and He Congzhi was the imperial physician.

The two of them were not the same kind of people.

And what Chen Fu said was good for both her and He Congzhi.

Only by holding on to this point will she and He Congzhi be safe.

"Your Majesty, it is impossible for Imperial Doctor He to have any selfish motives towards me."

Chen Fu bit her lip and continued, "As for me, the same is true for Doctor He."

"My heart belongs to Your Majesty. If Your Majesty wants me to marry you, I am willing to be punished."

"But if Your Majesty insists on saying that I and Imperial Doctor He have had a private affair, I will not admit a single word!"

Shen Fu knelt on the ground and reached out to hug his robe.

Xiao Yu couldn't bear to see her like that in the first place, and even though he watched her helplessly, he still bent down in the end.

An arm lifted her up from the ground.

"Stand up and talk to me first!" Xiao Yu glanced at her lightly.

Then he looked at He Congzhi again: "You say it!"

He held Shen Fu in his arms, his large palm firmly grasping her waist.

He held the beauty in his arms, but his eyes were still full of provocation: "He Congzhi, have you ever had any feelings for my Imperial Concubine?"

When Shen Fu heard this, she shuddered for some reason.

It was just that subtle emotion that flashed by and then disappeared.

Instead, He Congzhi was kneeling on the ground with his head lowered so that no one could tell what he was doing.

Only after hearing the voice of His Majesty did He Congzhi raise his head.

His eyes fell on His Majesty's waist, which was tightly gripped.

His eyes were cold and it was impossible to tell what emotion he was feeling.

"I dare not." He Congzhi said: "I thought before that the woman I had an engagement with was the same as me, which made me not want to find out."

He Congzhi spoke in a calm tone, his eyebrows slightly lowered when he spoke, his expression calm: "It's just that after meeting the Imperial Noble Consort, I knew that this woman is not someone I can dream of."

Before meeting Chen Fu, He Congzhi still had fantasies in his heart.

But after seeing Chen Fu, he lost even the last glimmer of hope in his heart.

She is so beautiful and charming, like a pearl held in someone's hand.

And in this harem, His Majesty treated her like a treasure.

Hold it in the palm of your hand.

Such a beautiful thing should be Shen Fu.

And what about yourself? Who is he?

He had nothing but medical skills, and it was even difficult for him to get close to her.

What else could he ask for?

"I just hope that Your Majesty will be happy. Your Majesty loves you so much that I won't be so timid and wishful."

"Please investigate thoroughly, Your Majesty. After I met the Imperial Concubine, I did not dare to have any thoughts of disobedience."

"You don't dare, or do you say no?" However, Xiao Yu still refused to give in easily.

His eyes were fixed on He Congzhi.

Not wanting to miss any emotion in his eyes: "Answer me!"

He Congzhi took a deep breath and finally raised his head.

"I dare not."

He struggled for so long, but he still had to follow his heart.

He had fantasies about Shen Fu.

No matter if it was because she was the wife arranged for him to marry, or because he had seen his portrait.

He had coveted Shen Fu before.

He Congzhi knew what he should say to reassure the Emperor.

But he still couldn't convince himself.

He Congzhi gritted his teeth and finally followed his heart: "I dare not!"

"You are such a jerk!" Xiao Yu was furious and strode towards the inner room.

He drew out his sword and hurriedly came in the direction where He Congzhi was.

"Your Majesty, you can't do that." Chen Fu was startled. Seeing His Majesty's expression, she hurried forward and hugged His Majesty's thighs.

"Long live the Lord."

Xiao Yu's boots were held by Shen Fu, who only used a slight force, but Xiao Yu still did not continue.

If he moved a little faster, he would definitely hurt Shen Fu.

Therefore, he held the long sword but did not move forward: "Let me go."

Xiao Yu gritted his teeth and looked at the priest kneeling on the ground, his back teeth clenched tightly.

"I won't let you go." The noise here was enough to frighten the little treasure, and his expression had changed a long time ago.

He hesitated and dared not step forward.

Chen Fu hugged His Majesty's waist, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down.

"Your Majesty, please listen to what I have to say."

Shen Fu's head was actually a mess.

Throat is full of bitterness.

He Congzhi should never, ever anger the Emperor at this time.

However, things have come to this point, and Shen Fu can't just watch him die.

"Your Majesty, please listen to what I have to say." Chen Fu held on to the hem of Your Majesty's clothes and refused to let go.

My mind was racing with thoughts, wondering what reason I could use to stop His Majesty.

"You say." Xiao Yu dragged his long sword on the ground.

He was reluctant to express these feelings in front of Shen Fu, but that didn't mean he would let He Congzhi go.

"If you can't explain what's right and what's wrong, I'll kill him!"

When Shen Fu heard this, she felt her heart tremble.

Because she knew that what His Majesty said was true.

If she can't give a clear answer one day, His Majesty will definitely kill He Congzhi.

Shen Fu's body couldn't help but tremble.

How could she just watch He Congzhi die?

"Your Majesty, have you ever thought about this?" Chen Fu hugged His Majesty's legs and sighed deeply.

"If it weren't for Your Majesty, I would have become Doctor He's wife!"

As soon as Shen Fu's voice fell, His Majesty's eyes instantly turned cold.

"Chen Fu!" Does she know what she is saying?

Shen Fu's hand fell on His Majesty's palm, and she could even feel the blue veins bulging on the back of His Majesty's hand.

Her fingertips trembled slightly.

If it was someone who said something bad, His Majesty would not take her life, but what about He Congzhi?
