Chapter 90 Fake
Shen Fu closed her eyes, feeling more panicked than ever before.
For a moment, she wanted to close her eyes and run away. It seemed that the matter was about to be accomplished, but she had never expected that the secret would be exposed among her fans!
After all, she had just pretended to be affectionate and loving, crying and making a fuss.
Even if it doesn't move the Emperor, at least he felt compassion.
But if His Majesty knew that all this was fake, how would He look upon her?
Shen Fu didn't dare to think about it.
The reason why she dared to do this was simply because she knew that the Emperor was still somewhat interested in her, and she was relying on the Emperor's favor towards her.
But if she admitted this, His Majesty would know that everything that happened just now was just an illusion she put on.
So...will His Majesty still like her from now on?
Shen Fu didn't dare to gamble, and she didn't want to gamble.
But...she looked at the Emperor's hands stretched out under her nose, and she could only bite the bullet and face the challenge.
"Your Majesty." Shen Fu shrank back, a hint of panic on her slightly raised face.
It's already this point, you can no longer play dumb and cheat.
His Majesty has already brought the makeup in front of him, and forcing an explanation would only make the situation uglier.
Shen Fu looked at His Majesty's hand, with genuine panic and fear on her face.
"Your Majesty, what does this mean?" Shen Fu's voice was horrified, and her eyes were full of guilt.
Xiao Yu was skeptical to begin with, and seeing her panic-stricken look, he became even more certain.
"You still don't admit it!" She looked so guilty, it was obvious that she was lying!
Xiao Yu squeezed Chen Fu's arm tightly, without any mercy at all.
"Your Highness." Shen Fu frowned and fell backwards.
The palm on her shoulder was too tight. She lowered her eyes to take a look. The Emperor's fingertips were pinching her shoulder so hard that they turned white.
Shen Fu had no doubt that for a moment, His Majesty really wanted to strangle her to death.
She was extremely panicked.
His Majesty was very close to her at this moment, and his aura was even more intimidating. It would not be an exaggeration to say that her situation was like escaping from the tiger's mouth.
If I say something wrong, this Hehuan Palace will probably become a cold palace in the future.
"Your Majesty, you hurt me." Waves of pain came over her shoulder. Shen Fu deliberately made a sound of pain in her throat. When she raised her head, her face was full of pitiful look.
"I really don't know what you mean, Your Majesty."
In the past, if Xiao Yu saw her like this, he would definitely feel pity for her.
But when he thought about what she had just done, the hand that was pinching his shoulder refused to let go.
"Tell me, are you deceiving me?"
His Majesty shouted sternly, and the tears on Shen Fu's face that were about to fall finally fell.
The moment the crystal clear tears fell, the hand that was pinching her shoulder obviously loosened a little.
Shen Fu subtly noticed this secret action and felt relieved.
His Majesty still has some sympathy for her, no matter how much, as long as there is a little bit, it would be enough.
Chen Fu bit her lip at the moment, but after noticing that His Majesty had loosened his grip, she stopped crying.
Instead, he raised his hand and wiped the tears from his face tightly.
She wiped with such force that it was even a little reckless. Her face, which was already covered with powder, was wiped so hard that her tears and powder were mixed together.
It has patches of white and red, just like a tabby cat. It's just that she is born beautiful, and her delicate and pretty face is not affected at all.
When Xiao Yu saw this, the palm that was originally on Shen Fu's shoulder loosened slightly.
Facing such a face, he really couldn't bear to do anything cruel!
Xiao Yu was extremely angry, but this time it was obviously directed at himself, not Chen Fu: "I asked you to give me an explanation!"
But after such a long time, Xiao Yu's anger had almost subsided. Even though there was still anger on his face, his tone became calmer.
Shen Fu knew that she couldn't delay any longer, as His Majesty's patience was limited.
If she doesn't give Wansui a reasonable explanation at this time, it might backfire.
"Your Majesty, do you think that I am scheming and deliberately pretended to be sick in order to lure you here?" Chen Fu knelt at Xiao Yu's feet and suddenly raised her head towards him.
"What else?" Xiao Yu didn't expect that Shen Fu didn't even bother to defend herself and directly admitted her guilt.
He stroked his fingertips, watching the makeup blending together on Shen Fu's face, with a cold look in his eyes.
"If not, how do you justify the makeup on your face?" Xiao Yu was not angry about this.
Instead, he was angry that he had rushed over as soon as he heard the news that Shen Fu was ill.
It was obvious that he was thinking of teaching Shen Fu a lesson before. The lesson for Shen Fu had not yet begun, but she was already delivering it herself.
It would be fine if Shen Fu was really sick, but if all the illnesses were fake…
He, the emperor, was indeed being played around with by others.
How could Xiao Yu endure this?
Chen Fu looked at His Majesty's expression and instantly figured out what he was thinking.
Pretending to be sick, setting up schemes, these kinds of methods are probably used by many concubines in the harem.
His Majesty was born in an imperial family and has seen a lot, so there is no need to say more.
The reason why I was so angry was because of something else.
After Shen Fu realized this, she felt more confident. Immediately after she finished speaking, she threw another thunderbolt:
"I admit that I am not sick."
"You!" Xiao Yu didn't expect Chen Fu to be so bold that she admitted it without saying anything!
He was angry and anxious, and stood up from the couch. Facing Shen Fu's upturned face, he raised one hand high, but was reluctant to let it go!
"Very good! Very good!" Xiao Yu gritted his teeth in anger.
He raised his trembling hand and pointed at Chen Fu's face, then waved his black long sleeves backwards, and the teacup on the sandalwood round table instantly shattered into pieces.
"Very good! Chen Fu." At this moment, His Majesty's mind recalled all the previous details without surprise.
The Shen sisters are truly more powerful than each other.
Shen Qingru dared to use a substitute and let Shen Fu take his place and serve. Now Chen Fu dares to follow and learn.
She followed the example of the women in the harem and pretended to be sick in order to gain favor.
With his fingertips tightly pinched, Xiao Yu said to Chen Fu deeply: "You are no different from your sister!"
When His Majesty said this, Shen Fu's face was instantly filled with shock. She raised her face, her eyes angrily staring at His Majesty, with a clear expression in her black and white eyes.
"Yes, I am a very scheming concubine!" His Majesty's voice was loud, and Chen Fu raised her head and was not much inferior!
"If Your Majesty thinks that I am playing tricks by putting on some makeup before Your Majesty's arrival, then Chen Fu admits it."
Chen Fu's voice was so loud and clear when she addressed His Majesty.
His Majesty feels that he has lost face at this moment, so... the most important thing for Chen Fu now is to regain His Majesty's face.
After the resounding words fell, Chen Fu continued: "I am not sick, but Your Majesty did not come to my place yesterday, and I was upset and couldn't eat or sleep..."
These were clearly love words, but they sounded so serious when they came out of her mouth, as if they were a matter of course.
Xiao Yu coughed and turned his head: "I don't think you are sick."
He spoke so loudly. Just now, his voice was even louder than that of His Majesty. How could he look angry at all?
"I am not sick, but I feel uncomfortable." Chen Fu said this harshly, and now she had to soften her stance.
"If Your Majesty doesn't come, I won't be able to eat or sleep well. My waist will become thinner in just one or two days." Others didn't dare to say this, except Chen Fu.
She has a slender waist, and when she walks she is as delicate as a willow swaying in the wind.
At this time, she said that her waist had become thinner, and even Xiao Yu subconsciously went over to take a look.
His Majesty's gaze fell on her, but Shen Fu pretended not to see it and was not surprised at all.
She knelt on the ground and continued, "It was just like that yesterday. Today, after His Majesty went to Concubine Wang's place, the maids around me were afraid that I would refuse to eat or drink again, so they went to invite the imperial physician to come."
Shen Fu had thought of an excuse beforehand. After all, it had been hot these past few days, so she had indeed eaten less.
Whether you are sick or not, let’s not talk about it for now. But the imperial physician did give her a prescription to stimulate her appetite before he left, so Chen Fu dared to bring this up.
"I was afraid that Zi Su would worry, so I allowed her to call the imperial physician. But I didn't expect His Majesty would get the news and... actually come over."
The more Shen Fu spoke, the more cautious she became, and she even looked at His Majesty with a look of disbelief.
When Xiao Yu met that gaze, the unnatural emotions in his body finally eased a little.
He covered his mouth and coughed: "You mean you didn't expect me to come?"
"I don't know," Shen Fu shook her head. It would be too fake to say that she had never thought about it.
But she couldn't admit it directly.
"Chen...Chen Fu doesn't dare to think about it." She said she didn't dare to think about it, but she didn't say she had never thought about it.
The cautious look in those clear black and white eyes greatly satisfied some of Xiao Yu's emotions.
At least, he was not being manipulated.
"You're lying!" The indifference in Xiao Yu's eyes gradually faded away. He lowered his eyes and looked at the person kneeling beneath him.
The cunning and cleverness in the woman's eyes could not be concealed at all. If what Shen Fu said before was true, then she deliberately allowed the palace maid to invite the imperial physician.
There is some difference between designing a plan to lure him here and allowing the palace maid to invite the imperial physician.
"Don't you know how much I care about you? I got the news the first time you invited the imperial physician to your palace."
Chen Fu looked at His Majesty carefully. She was close enough to notice the slight changes in His Majesty's mood.
Knowing that His Majesty was not angry at all, she knew that she had finally passed this hurdle today.
"I have thought about it." Chen Fu muttered, and unconsciously acted coquettishly towards His Majesty.
"It's just that I suppressed my emotions and didn't dare to think too much. What... Besides, didn't His Majesty turn over Lady Wang's card tonight? Why would he come to my place again?"
Shen Fu's voice became lower and lower, and there was a hint of sourness in her last tone.
How could His Majesty not smell such a strong smell of vinegar?
He chuckled and stretched out his big hand. He grabbed Shen Fu's waist and pressed her onto his knees: "How can you be so sure that I won't come?"
Shen Fu exclaimed in mock surprise, then stumbled into the arms of His Majesty.
She lay delicately in the arms of His Majesty, grasping the front of his shirt with her fingertips so tightly that her fingertips turned white.
"Chen Fu...I dare not." Chen Fu's voice was trembling. The Emperor's gaze fell on her head. She deliberately turned her head to let the Emperor see the tips of her ears which were gradually turning red.
"Your Majesty has many concubines in the harem. Even if we go to Concubine Wang today, it is Your Majesty's business." Chen Fu was in Your Majesty's arms.
She was so delicate, her eyes innocent and pitiful: "Chen Fu dare not think too much, let alone complain. As for whether she had thought that Your Majesty would come, Shen...I had thought about it but suppressed myself and dared not think too much."
"This doesn't sound true to me." His Majesty stretched out his hand and held Chen Fu tighter.
He had just been thinking about this part of the waist, and now he put his whole palm there, and he felt relieved.
The emperor placed his slender fingers on her waist, and played with her slender waist with his fingertips: "If I really stay at Lady Wang's place tonight, will you have any complaints?"
Shen Fu was silent for a long time at first and didn't say anything. Only the two hands that fell on His Majesty's lapels clenched instantly.
"Chen Fu..." She was so flustered that she even forgot to say concubine, and only reacted after a while: "Concubine..."
"Concubine Wang is His Majesty's concubine. It is only natural for His Majesty to favor her." Chen Fu said:
"Besides, Concubine Wang is so beautiful, she can sing and dance well, and she is also good at playing the piano. It is only right for Your Majesty to go to her place. I don't want to, and I dare not complain."
Shen Fu's words were extremely well-spoken. She made no effort to conceal her envy of Lady Wang and deliberately spoke in a sour tone.
She is obviously a woman who is in love and jealous at the same time.
"Even if I don't come tonight, I won't go to her place." Xiao Yu hugged her waist and said with a smile.
"Is what Your Majesty said true?" However, after saying this, Shen Fu hurriedly raised her head.
She seems like two different people from the woman who just said she didn't dare.
"Your Majesty will really not stay overnight at Concubine Wang's place?" Chen Fu was so anxious that she lost all her manners and grabbed his sleeve as if she knew nothing about it.
"Of course it is. How could I lie to you?" Xiao Yu frowned in disgust when he thought of the scene just now in Furong Palace.
The reason why he favored Concubine Wang before was just because he saw Chen Fu in the bamboo forest, and Concubine Wang happened to be playing the piano, so he favored her for two nights.
If he had to compare, the one he wanted from the beginning was Shen Fu.
Now that Shen Fu was right in front of him, how could he ask for a fake one?
Of course, Shen Fu was not aboveboard when she served him. He didn't explain further.
"You are such a small girl, but you have a big temper."
His Majesty suddenly reached out and picked up Shen Fu horizontally, weighing her lightly with both hands: "She is a little thinner."
Thinking of what Shen Fu had just said, he smiled and said deliberately: "I came to your place tonight, so I can eat and sleep well tomorrow."
Shen Fu's cheeks turned red and she shyly hid in the arms of His Majesty.
A light laugh came from above her head, and the Emperor held her in his arms and strode towards the bed.
"I will make up for all the weight you've lost tonight."
