Chapter 77 Pretending
Lin An pointed his hand backwards, and following his gaze, he saw the Emperor's dragon chariot parked there.
The moment Chen Fu saw the dragon chariot, the first thing that came to her mind was not surprise, but shock.
Jingren Palace is the most prosperous and lively place in the entire imperial palace. Not only is it very close to the Emperor's Qianqing Palace, but the Imperial Garden is also to the right when you go out.
At this time, His Majesty's dragon chariot was parked there, and the eunuchs and palace maids passing by on the road could see it by just turning their heads slightly.
If she went up at this time and was seen by others...
Shen Fu felt her legs go weak when she thought of this. If she got on the Emperor's sedan chair at this time and was seen by others, the rumors alone would be enough to make her suffer.
"Master Shen?"
She stood there with a look of hesitation on her face. Lin An bent over and knelt on the ground. Seeing that she didn't react, he bravely raised his head.
“Master Shen, His Majesty is waiting for you.”
Lin An had a fawning smile on his face. The moment he raised his head, he pointed behind him, motioning Chen Fu to follow him.
Shen Fu stood there, wishing she could disappear immediately.
His Majesty is really capable of doing something strange. Why is he coming to find me at this time?
Is there anything that can't wait? Do I have to wait at the gate of Concubine Rong's palace at this time?
What if someone saw me? But what should I do?
Chen Fu had a lot of complaints, but unfortunately she dared not speak out. She looked down at Lin An, raised her hand and placed it on her forehead, pretending to be dizzy: "Eunuch Lin, I really feel unwell."
She was very 'carefully' dressed up today, with her snow-white face covered in makeup that gave off a hint of pink.
Lin An saw it just now, but he was too embarrassed to tell Master Shen. He really couldn't figure out why Miss Shen, who had such a good face, dressed herself up like this.
"Then Miss Shen, what do you mean?" Lin An had an expression of wasting resources.
Miss Shen is really young and doesn't understand aesthetics yet.
She is so beautiful that she doesn't need any decoration. She is naturally beautiful. Why should I go to such great lengths to gain His Majesty's attention?
Now His Majesty has noticed it, but it's... kind of scary.
Lin An muttered to himself that if Chen Fu heard what he said, she would probably die of laughter.
She pursed her lips and asked timidly, "Could you please tell His Majesty that I won't be going over now?"
"This..." Lin An coughed violently.
Of course not!
How long has His Majesty been waiting here? Is Miss Shen crazy? Everyone else is begging for such a good thing, but she actually refuses to do it?
Li An had a lot to say and was about to speak, but after looking up at Shen Fu's timid eyes, he suddenly became hesitant.
Shen Fu was born beautifully, with a pair of misty eyes that looked innocent and tender.
Not to mention His Majesty, even a eunuch like him can't be stopped.
Lin An swallowed the words in his throat bit by bit.
He gritted his teeth and tried to test it out: "Then let me go over and report back?" But in his heart he felt that this hope would be dashed.
Master Shen thought it was too simple.
Not to mention anything else, just the fact that His Majesty has been waiting for her here for so long, how could he be willing to leave?
Lin An had a lot of mumblings in his mind, and he wanted to reach out and slide Chen Fu over.
Chen Fu really didn't want to get on the Emperor's sedan chair.
It was because the Emperor had left such a deep impression on her last night that she was now afraid that others would see her close relationship with the Emperor.
Secondly, I really don’t want to see His Majesty’s face for the time being.
Chen Fu was afraid that she would not be able to control herself and would kneel down in front of His Majesty with weak knees.
Lin An had no choice but to walk back in fear after he was sure that Chen Fu was unwilling to follow him.
"Your Highness." Lin An stood in front of the curtain, bent over and said carefully:
“Ms. Shen said she was not feeling well and refused to come.”
As the words fell, the air around them seemed to become a little heavier.
Inside the sedan, Xiao Yu's tightly closed eyes slowly opened. His dark eyes were as dark as ink, and so intense that they were frightening.
"No?"
Lin An stood outside the dragon chariot and felt a drop of cold sweat falling from his forehead. He raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and felt that it was all over.
It was clear from His Majesty's tone that he was angry.
His throat tightened and Lin An bent his body a little lower. The tone of his voice was dry: “Ms. Shen said that she was not feeling well.”
"What's wrong with her?" His Majesty asked with a sneer in his voice in the dragon sedan chair. He chewed the two words word by word in his mouth, with a cold smile in his eyes.
How could Shen Fu be unwell? It's obvious that you don't want to come.
Thinking of the scene in the hall just now, Shen Fu wished she could stay as far away from him as possible, and wanted to stay three feet away from him.
All the women in the harem were eager to see him more, and even the most beautiful concubine would dress up carefully every time she paid her respects.
Only Shen Fu did the opposite.
A hint of interest flashed in Xiao Yu's eyes, and his bony fingers gently tapped on the window frame.
"Let her have some fun!"
If he refused to come, he would have a thousand ways to make Shen Fu obey him later.
have to!
There is no choice but to come.
Lin An straightened up his half-bent body, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, turned around and walked towards Chen Fu:
“Master Shen, His Majesty wants you to come over.”
When Shen Fu saw Lin An coming over, she knew that she was just daydreaming.
She stood in the distance and sighed in her heart. I couldn't help but raise my head and look forward.
His Majesty's dragon sedan stopped under the banyan tree, and the yellow curtains covered it tightly in the bright midsummer day.
Chen Fu stood there, seeming to sense a dark and deep gaze from behind the curtain falling on her.
Sharp and serious.
Chen Fu naturally knew that the owner of this gaze should be unable to wait any longer.
If she delays any further at this moment, she will probably be punished more severely.
Thinking of this, Shen Fu did not dare to delay and walked forward while biting her lip.
The dragon sedan stopped under a banyan tree, with a dense forest behind it and the imperial garden ahead.
Chen Fu stood at the dragon sedan chair and seemed to be able to hear laughter coming from the imperial garden from time to time.
She looked around nervously, and there happened to be a rockery pavilion where the Emperor stopped. With his back to the shade, passers-by would not be able to see him unless they looked carefully.
Chen Fu looked back and forth nervously, but her appearance did not escape the eyes of the Emperor in the dragon chariot.
The slender fingers tapped the small table in front of him a few times, and Xiao Yu said impatiently: "Come in quickly."
She was lingering around the dragon chariot, and people who didn't know her would think she was a thief.
Shen Fu didn't expect that His Majesty was actually looking at her.
She almost screamed out loud and didn't dare to look again. After glancing around and making sure there was no one around, she dared to go up with confidence.
As soon as you step into the dragon chariot, you will feel a cool breeze, which makes you feel relaxed and happy.
The heat all over Chen Fu's body disappeared completely in an instant.
She knew that His Majesty was sitting there at this moment, so Shen Fu stood in front of His Majesty obediently, and her voice was as sweet as a kitten: "Your Majesty."
A soft and innocent voice, coupled with those watery eyes. Xiao Yu looked at the person standing in front of her, as if the person who was standing at the door and didn't want to come in was not her.
"come over."
At His Majesty's order, Shen Fu had no choice but to step forward cautiously.
She walked slowly, as if she couldn't wait to take one step at a time. But the dragon chariot was so small that after hesitating for so long, it finally reached the top.
Shen Fu lowered her eyes and called out softly, "Your Highness."
As soon as the words fell, a hand grasped her wrist. His Majesty had a blank expression on his face and pulled her forcefully into his arms.
Shen Fu screamed and fell into the arms of His Majesty. She subconsciously stretched out her arms and hooked them around His Majesty's neck.
"Long live...Long live." Her voice was delicate, but she kept her head down from beginning to end.
Xiao Yu knew why she did that, and reached out his hand expressionlessly to hook her chin.
Shen Fu had covered it up for so long, but the traces of dirt were clearly visible on her snow-white face.
She was born with a fair and attractive complexion, and her face was as white as a carefully carved jade.
But at this time, her face was covered with thick makeup, with marks of white and black spots, and she was not really beautiful.
Xiao Yu let out a light click of his tongue and put it down with a look of disgust on his face: "What on earth did you put on your face?"
"Your Majesty, please don't look." Chen Fu quickly covered her face with her hands as if trying to cover her ears and steal the bell.
How could she put on this makeup today for His Majesty to see? It was obviously made for the women in the harem to see.
As for being seen by His Majesty, it was really a helpless act.
Shen Fu took a few careful glances, and was relieved when she saw that there was no obvious disgust in His Majesty's eyes.
She didn't want the Emperor to lose interest in her for no reason. If that happens, we will lose both the wife and the army.
After making sure that His Majesty was not so disgusted by her makeup today, Shen Fu deliberately covered her face and cried: "Your Majesty, please don't look at me."
"I am so ugly that I cannot bear to see the Holy Lord."
Shen Fu pretended.
Xiao Yu felt a headache from her crying. He put his hand on his forehead and said helplessly, "Don't cry. I saw it when I was in Jingren Palace just now."
“Long live…” Shen Fu’s sobs became more and more choked, with a few stuttering sounds from time to time.
His Majesty didn't think about her at all!
I went to look for her after dark last night, and today I did it secretly again.
Chen Fu became so angry when she thought of this that she cried even louder. But she didn't dare to completely anger His Majesty, and she looked towards Him from time to time, crying pitifully and funny.
How could His Majesty not see that she was indecisive?
He stretched out his hand and pinched her chin, sneering: "If you cry again, I will block your mouth myself!"
