Chapter 24 Alternative
Frogs croaked, and hurried footsteps sounded in the dark night, followed by knocks on the door of Chuxiu Palace.
"Miss Fu." Fengchun ran over hurriedly under the moonlight, not even having time to catch his breath.
He quickly leaned over in front of the door frame and knocked on the door a few more times.
"Miss Fu, please open the door quickly."
His Majesty came too suddenly tonight and now he has to stay overnight. Fengchun thought of the young lady's order before she left. If she didn't bring Miss Fu with her later...
Fengchun trembled all over and pleaded to the person inside the door, "Miss Fu, Miss Fu, please open the door." She didn't dare to speak too loudly for fear of being heard.
This is Chuxiu Palace. If someone finds out what's going on here, we'll be finished.
It was quiet inside the room, but the knocks on the door outside were getting louder and louder, and could be heard clearly.
Zi Su stood at the edge of the bed holding an oil lamp in her hand and turned her head to look behind her.
"Girl." The voice was deliberately lowered, and it was so quiet in the dark night that it seemed as if only the sound of breath could be heard.
“Girl, Shen Ronghua actually sent someone here!”
Zi Su took a deep breath when she thought of this. Normally, the girl would not have gone to bed at this time, but today she had closed the door early.
She didn't understand at the time, but now she could hear the continuous knocking on the door outside.
He swallowed his saliva, and in his heart he was full of admiration for Shen Fu: "Miss, did you know this a long time ago?"
Chen Fu sat on the edge of the bed, wearing a snow-white nightgown, and looked as delicate and small as a glutinous rice dumpling.
She swung her legs and looked outside, with a hint of interest and smile in her eyes.
Of course she knows.
Chen Fu did not miss the flash of amazement in His Majesty's eyes in the bamboo forest.
Having served His Majesty for so many years, she knew very well what could touch his heart.
There are three thousand beauties in the harem. What kind of beauties haven’t everyone seen? No matter how beautiful she was, to His Majesty she was just a woman that could be easily obtained.
What's more, there are so many concubines in the harem, and there is no telling how many women with outstanding looks there are. As far as Chen Fu knew in her previous life, there were also women with stunning beauty in the harem.
Even though her appearance is one of the best in the deep palace, she can be favored in the harem for a while just by relying on her face, but she cannot be favored forever.
The more a man cannot get what he wants, the more itchy he feels. The reason she wears a veil is that she is playing both welcome and rejection.
It not only arouses the emperor's interest, but also makes him unable to see, find, or obtain it...
And the reason why she ran to Changqiu Palace.
The bet is whether His Majesty has the slightest curiosity about her. As long as His Majesty is interested in her, he will definitely come to Changqiu Palace tonight.
The events of the day flashed through Shen Fu's mind one by one. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but curl up her red lips into a slight smile.
The knocks on the door were getting louder and louder. Seeing that the girl was in a good mood, Zi Su couldn't help but said, "Girl, why don't you open the door?"
If this continues, I'm afraid that Lady Zhou and the others next door will be woken up.
Chen Fu glanced at the moonlight outside the window and estimated the time.
His Majesty always washes before going to bed, and Shen Qingru was probably asking her to come at this time.
The longer she delayed, the more anxious Shen Qingru would become.
When Shen Fu thought of this, the smile on her lips deepened. She estimated the time in her mind, and when it seemed like it was almost time, she blinked and said to Zi Su, "Open it."
If the door is not opened, Shen Qingru will be scared to death.
At the door, Fengchun was already sweating profusely. I don’t know whether Miss Fu fell asleep or didn’t hear it.
She knocked for so long, but there was no response.
Afraid of making a noise, she felt anxious and uncomfortable, and lay on the ground and looked through the crack in the door. While knocking on the door, he called out to Shen Fu pleadingly: “Miss Fu, Miss Fu.”
I don't know how many times I knocked until my fingers turned red. The gate of Chuxiu Palace was gently opened.
"What's the matter?" Zi Su held the oil lamp and rubbed her eyes: "I'm sorry to disturb the girl's rest so late."
Fengchun knocked for so long and finally got a response. She immediately breathed a sigh of relief and quickly squeezed in.
"Miss Fu."
Fengchun knelt down as soon as he entered the room. His knees softened and he knelt directly on the ground: "Miss Fu, please save our young master."
His Majesty is coming tonight, and this is a great opportunity for their young mistress.
If Miss Fu is unwilling to go, their young lady will go and serve her. Thinking of something, Fengchun shuddered and kowtowed to Chen Fu: "Miss Fu, this is a matter of life and death, I beg you to come with me quickly."
Chen Fu was sitting on the edge of the bed in her pajamas, her small face still hazy from having just woken up.
Seeing Fengchun kneeling down, her eyes flashed, and she immediately reached out and helped him up: "Sister Fengchun."
Shen Fu's voice was soft and sticky: "What happened?"
When Fengchun listened to Chen Fu's voice, he would definitely curse her in his heart, saying that she was so charming at such a young age and was born to be a seductive woman who flirted with men.
But now Fengchun dared not say a word. When he faced Chen Fu, he was like seeing a savior. He held Chen Fu's hand and begged.
"Miss Fu, it's too late to explain now." His Majesty should have finished washing up by now.
If we delay any further, then... Fengchun couldn't help but shudder when he thought of the young lady's expression at that time.
He took Shen Fu's hand and ran out directly.
In the dark night, the Changqiu Palace was brightly lit. The sound of water could be heard in the room. Shen Qingru stood there, pacing back and forth.
She had just washed up, but couldn't help but sweating on her back. He glanced out the window from time to time, and couldn't help but tighten his fingertips.
Shen Qingru turned her head and looked into the room.
The sound of water gradually stopped, as if the Emperor would step out in a while.
Thinking of His Majesty's figure, which was taller and stronger than others, my heart began to tremble.
His Majesty's bravery is naturally different in that aspect.
His Majesty will definitely have to stay overnight tonight. If Chen Fu doesn't show up, she will have to go there herself.
Thinking of the Emperor before, Shen Qingru's heart trembled, and her legs couldn't help but go weak.
She wasn’t afraid, but… Shen Qingru looked down at her belly and couldn’t help but reach out and touch it gently.
The sound of water behind me gradually stopped, and the sound of someone getting dressed came from inside.
Shen Qingru's hopes were dashed, and his face gradually turned pale.
She held onto the door frame, staggering so much that she almost fell. Just when I took a deep breath and was about to face the challenge.
A sound of light footsteps appeared beside her.
"Elder sister." Chen Fu was wearing pajamas, as if she had just woken up from bed. She was wearing snow-white pajamas, but the skin on her neck was as white as jade.
She opened her innocent eyes with a slight blush on her cheeks. When she saw her looking at her, she tilted her head and asked innocently:
"What is it that my elder sister wants me to come for?"
