Someone outside heard Xichen's voice and asked: "The emperor is awake? Is the emperor okay?"
Chu Xichen said to the outside: "It's okay, it's a false alarm, everyone should go back!"
When Shen Huan heard the sound of clothes swirling, those adults must have retreated? It only took a while, but Shen Huan felt that it had been half a century since she let go.
Someone came in, Shen Huan raised his head and saw the pebbles
"You!" Shen Huan stood up angrily, but Chu Xichen pulled her to sit down and said, "Don't be angry."
Xiao Shizi poured a cup of tea and placed it beside the bed, then quietly retreated.
Shen Huan only felt sad. She didn't expect that the person her sister left for her, the person she should trust the most, would also betray her.
"How does the emperor want to punish this concubine? Depose her? Or just give her death?"
Chu Xichen did not answer and asked: "Don't you want to know what happened?"
Shen Huan looked at him, and he said: "Originally, the pebbles were indeed poisoned in my wine, but when I picked up the wine glass, he knelt down and begged for death. Although he was Shen Yuanliu's It was given to you, but you forgot that he has been serving me all these years."
Shen Huan sneered: "Does your Majesty want to find out Eunuch Shi's conscience?"
Chu Xichen still didn't answer, but asked Shen Huan: "Do you hate me so much? Do you have to kill me?"
Shen Huan took a deep breath and said, "You should have guessed that I can't let go of my hatred!"
Chu Xichen nodded lightly and said: "I know, but you just said that I killed your family and took away Xichao's throne and you..."
Shen Huan hurriedly said: "Don't involve Xi Chao, he doesn't know about this matter!"
Chu Xichen looked at her and smiled sadly, and said: "I know, but I only admit to killing your family and taking you away, and I am not willing to admit to taking away Xichao's throne."
Shen Huan suddenly changed his expression and said coldly: "Your Majesty, why bother? Things have reached this point, why don't you admit it?"
Chu Xichen stared at her and said nothing for a long time.
Shen Huan knelt down and said in a cold voice: "If you succeed as a king or lose as a bandit, your Majesty will be happy as a concubine!"
Chu Xichen stretched out his hand, placed it on the back of her cold hand, and said, "I said, I forgive you."
Shen Huan's heartbeat suddenly stopped and she blurted out: "But, I want to kill you!"
Chu Xichen smiled meaninglessly and said: "If you don't kill me, it will be difficult to eliminate your hatred for me. If you kill me and forgive me, then I will also forgive you."
Shen Wen was almost suffocating, as if there was a piece of lead stuck in her chest. She was speechless for a long time before she spoke: "What if I still want your life in the future?"
Chu Xichen shook his head and said, "You can't." After saying that, he suddenly frowned and covered his chest with his hands.
Shen Huan exclaimed: "Xichen!"
Chu Xichen's face was a little pale, and she forced a smile and said: "That poison is indeed very powerful. I just touched my lips a little. With my level of skill, I was actually hurt..."
"Xichen..." Shen Huan lowered his head and started crying again
He gently raised her face and brushed away the tears on her face, but his heart hurt again. He frowned and his voice trembled: "I like it very much when you call me by my name..."
She cried more and more, and in the end, she had to be taken away from Qian Palace. When she returned to Chen Palace, she untied the sachet that never left her body and threw it into the charcoal basin.
Cui Shanggong asked in confusion: "Your Majesty, what is this?"
Shen Huan's eyes were red and swollen and she said softly: "No need, I want to have a child of my own."
Cui Shanggong nodded, said nothing, and quietly left.
The lights were still lit in Qian Palace, Xichen's poison was not deep, he forced himself out a little, drank a bowl of medicine, and felt much better
Xiao Shizi walked in in a hurry and said: "Your Majesty, Chen Ronghua would like to see you."
Xichen frowned: "What is she doing here so late?"
"Chen Ronghua is worried about His Majesty's dragon body and must see His Majesty"
Xichen just wanted to call her back, but remembered that she was pregnant, so she had to say: "Let her in."
Chen Ronghua walked in, knelt down in front of Xichen, his eyes filled with tears, and choked with sobs, he called: "Your Majesty..."
Chu Xichen didn't like women crying. If it was Shen Huan, he would comfort her. If it were another woman, he would just frown and say, "Stop crying, am I not a good person?" After all, this woman is pregnant with his child. , he waved to her, motioning to come to him
Touching the bulging belly, a long-lost warmth appeared on Xichen's face, and she asked softly: "How many months has it been?"
Chen Ronghua wiped his tears and whispered: "It's been five months. The imperial doctor checked the pulse and said it's a boy."
Xichen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good."
Chen Ronghua knelt on the footstep, kowtowed, and cried: "Your Majesty, I have something to ask of you!"
"What's up?"
"I...I want to raise this child by myself after I give birth to it," she said in tears.
Xichen said in surprise: "No one said that you are not allowed to raise the child! When you give birth to the child, your status will increase, and you will naturally have the right to raise the child yourself."
Chen Ronghua cried even harder and said: "But...but the queen...she said that the child would be in her name."
Xichen frowned again: "Nonsense, the Queen can't give birth to a child herself!"
Chen Ronghua carefully glanced at his face and whispered: "The queen doesn't want to have children, she has been using contraception..."
Xichen was stunned at first, and then said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Chen Ronghua hurriedly explained: "I am not talking nonsense. In fact, I have learned some spices since I was in the palace. I know that the sachet that the Queen carries contains spices that are cold in nature. The Queen is so knowledgeable about spices that she must know what is inside." Something like that! Besides, she said she wanted my concubine’s child, so I guessed... maybe, maybe it’s the queen who doesn’t want to give birth to a dragon son for the emperor.”
Chu Xichen only felt that her whole body was cold, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar. For a long time, she waved her hand feebly: "You go down."
Chen Ronghua bowed and left. When she walked out of the palace gate, a young eunuch immediately came up to her and whispered this in her ear.
Chen Ronghua raised his eyebrows and asked, "Did you hear that right?"
The little eunuch nodded hurriedly and said, "I can't hear you wrong! I followed Eunuch Shi and heard with my own ears that the queen said that she wanted to kill the emperor. She also asked the emperor to forgive her!"
"Then what did the emperor say?"
"The emperor said that he forgives the queen."
Chen Ronghua felt agitated in his heart, gave the little eunuch a piece of gold, and said coldly: "You did a good job, spreading this news - the news that the queen attempted to assassinate the emperor!"
"I obey my orders! Your Majesty will give birth to a dragon seed and become a prince. Don't forget this slave."
A smile appeared on Chen Ronghua's small face: "Of course! Go!"
"Thank you, empress!"
