Although Chu Hewang is a rootless person, he is handsome and powerful, and many people admire him.
But he is like a lump of ice, extremely cold and indifferent, and keeps people at a distance. I didn't expect that there would be a girl he likes.
Chu Hewang bowed and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. She is just an ordinary woman."
The emperor was also stunned. A woman? It turned out that the person Chu Hewang coveted was already married.
Want to be a thief?
Xiao Yan couldn't continue to ask about the minister's personal affairs. He coughed and said, "My dear minister, I have something I want to entrust to you. You are the only one I trust the most."
Chu Hewang stood with his back straight, like a pine or bamboo, and bowed, "Your Majesty, what is the matter?"
"Now that the Xu family has fallen, there's no one left in the court who can rein in the Ning family." The emperor frowned slightly, his eyes filled with sharpness and sternness. "Do you have anyone to recommend?"
Chu Hewang lowered his eyelids to hide the emotion in his eyes, and said in a faint voice, "I think General Tu can confront the Ning family head-on. Although General Tu has not been on the battlefield for a long time, his sword is still sharp..."
The emperor pondered for a moment, "I remember that Concubine Li is Tu's cousin, and she can only barely resist the Ning family. It seems that we still need to find a way to get rid of the Ning family..."
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Chu Hewang's eyes, and he said nothing.
When Ning Yu woke up, it was already noon.
He climbed up from the bed, supporting his aching waist, and asked the system to exchange pills, only then did he feel a little better.
However, the fingerprints on the body are difficult to remove.
"Your Majesty, you are finally awake. Are you still feeling unwell?" Li Xiang saw Ning Yu wake up and walked forward to ask with concern.
Ning Yu couldn't help but blush. "It's alright, Lixiang. I'm a little hungry. Go get some easily digestible food."
Lixiang took the order and retreated.
After the delicious food was served, Ning Yu ate almost everything because he hadn't eaten for almost half a day.
Li Xiang saw Eunuch Fu coming over and smiled, "Eunuch Fu, why are you here?"
Eunuch Fu smiled and said, "His Majesty will be here tonight. Please let Miss Lixiang and the Empress know."
Li Xiang knew that the marks on Ning Yu's body had not yet disappeared, so she smiled and said, "Please wait a moment, Eunuch Fu, while I report to the Empress."
Eunuch Fu nodded slightly.
I secretly thought that no one in the harem could surpass the queen.
Even if Concubine Shen believed that the Queen had killed her child, His Majesty's heart was always with the Queen, so naturally he didn't believe Concubine Shen's words.
Considering that His Majesty had always doted on Lady Shen, but now had abandoned her like a piece of trash, it was really hard to guess what His Majesty was thinking.
Lixiang informed the Queen that the Emperor was coming to Kunning Palace.
Ning Yu frowned slightly. She originally thought that Concubine Shen had a miscarriage and the emperor should stay with Concubine Shen for the next few days.
The plot is getting more and more crooked.
"Go and call them in." Ning Yu said.
Lixiang slowly accepted the order and left, "Eunuch Fu, the Queen is looking for you."
A hint of surprise flashed through Eunuch Fu's heart. He stepped over the threshold and slowly bowed to Ning Yu.
"Greetings, Her Majesty. What is it that Her Majesty wishes to see us?"
Ning Yu's white jade face was flawless, dignified and graceful. She said softly, "Eunuch Fu, please go and tell His Majesty that I'm feeling a little unwell for the time being. Also, Concubine Shen just lost her child and needs His Majesty's company even more."
Eunuch Fu's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't show it. "...I know about it now, and I will report it to His Majesty."
As a servant, he naturally couldn't say anything to the queen.
When Eunuch Fu returned to the imperial study, the emperor was not reviewing memorials but reading a book.
The emperor heard the noise and showed a trace of concern on his face. "What did the queen say to you?"
Eunuch Fu had a bitter look on his face and trembled with fear. He embellished the words of the Queen a little and repeated them again.
However, it could not stop the emperor's expression from becoming increasingly gloomy, like a dark cloud covering the sky. He suddenly placed the book on the desk and sneered.
"How could I not know that the Queen is so generous and virtuous? If so, let's go to the Precious Fragrance Palace tonight."
Eunuch Fu sighed inwardly, "...Yes."
At night.
Baoxiang Palace was prepared early. Concubine Shen had just suffered a miscarriage and could only lie in bed to rest. Thinking that His Majesty would come to visit her soon, she was filled with shyness and two blushes appeared on her pale face.
If the Queen knew about this, she would be extremely jealous.
There was a clattering sound of greetings coming from outside.
When Concubine Shen saw the emperor striding in, she was about to get out of bed and salute, but was held down by a pair of large hands. "You just had a miscarriage, so there's no need to salute."
When Lady Shen heard the word "miscarriage", her face turned pale. She forced a smile, looking quite pitiful.
"Your Majesty, why are you here?"
The emperor didn't notice Concubine Shen's pretentious attitude at all. He was still thinking about the queen and had a cold expression.
"You are not feeling well, so I naturally came to visit you. How are you now?"
Seeing that the emperor was absent-minded, Concubine Shen bit her lip and said, "Your Majesty, I am feeling better now that the imperial physician has taken care of me."
Lady Shen thought of the words the Queen had whispered in her ear this morning, and her unborn child, and clutched her quilt tightly.
"Your Majesty, I think the Queen may know about the little prince. It's very likely that my child was killed by the Queen!"
The air suddenly became stagnant.
The aura around the emperor became increasingly cold and indifferent, his eyes looked at Beauty Shen like sharp swords, cold and terrifying.
"How dare you! Who gave you the guts to slander the Queen?"
Concubine Shen had never seen the emperor like this before, and she couldn't help but shudder.
Does he like the Queen so much?
I was jealous and crazy.
Concubine Shen could no longer bear it. She held the emperor's big hand, tears in her eyes, and her tone was full of unwillingness.
"Your Majesty, why are you so protective of the Empress? I am your savior, and you were not like this before..."
The emperor withdrew his hand and slowly stood up, his whole body filled with the emperor's majesty and indifference. "Prove my decree. The beauty Shen Zhu is well-educated, diligent and docile... and you shall immediately confer the title of Zhaoyi and grant her the Precious Fragrance Palace."
Just as Shen Meiren felt a surge of ecstasy in her heart and was about to kneel down to express her gratitude, she saw the bright yellow figure walking out, revealing a deep indifference and ruthlessness.
Only then did Shen Meiren understand, and her heart was filled with disappointment.
The emperor repaid the life-saving grace with his status.
From then on, he was the high and mighty emperor, and she was Shen Zhaoyi.
There is no other relationship anymore.
The emperor rode on the dragon chariot, the cold wind blowing across his handsome face.
For some reason, he felt very calm and indifferent in his heart, and also felt a sense of relief.
After a long while, the emperor's voice came, "Go to Kunning Palace."
Kunning Palace.
As expected, Chu Hewang came again, bringing the plaster with him.
