Shen Huan leaned on the pillar and looked at Merlin. There were light footsteps behind him. Shen Huan turned around alertly and saw a little eunuch holding a square cushion in his hand. He smiled respectfully and said, "My queen, I must I'm tired of standing, and this slave happened to be passing by. If you don't mind, would you please sit here first?"
Shen Huan frowned, she basically didn't know anyone in the palace, and the eunuch looked very unfamiliar. She leaned against the pillar again, but the eunuch took another step forward and lowered his voice and said: "My queen, please don't panic. The master asked the slave to bring a message to the empress. He has arranged everything in the capital and will rescue the empress soon."
"Shouldn't your master be Ye Cangqiong?" Shen Huan asked doubtfully.
The eunuch smiled strangely and said: "The master I am talking about is not the master of the Western Kingdom, but the master of the Northern Kingdom."
Shen Huan was shocked: "Chu Xichen? He hasn't left yet?"
The eunuch sighed: "Your Majesty, your Majesty is still trapped in a trap. How can he leave with peace of mind? My Majesty, please act appropriately. If there is a way, please leave the palace as soon as possible and go outside the palace."
"Why?" Shen Huan felt vaguely uneasy
The little eunuch carefully looked around and saw that no one was around, so he said confidently and boldly: "I got the news that the Queen Mother and Ye Cangqiong kept you in the palace to do you harm!"
Shen Huan's palms were already sweating and she asked softly: "How are they going to harm me?"
The little eunuch said: "I'm afraid that once you give birth to a child, the Queen Mother will not be able to tolerate you. I am worried that the master is not ready yet, so you will fall into the trap of that old witch Queen Mother! If possible, the Queen Mother will leave the palace as soon as possible. The first thing is that the master can take you out as soon as possible, and the other thing is that you don't risk giving birth to a child in the palace!"
Shen Huan sneered: "Do you mean that once I give birth to a child, the Queen Mother will execute me?"
The little eunuch said: "My queen was the closest person to my master. I have seen many secrets of the palace. In fact, my queen, you also know that when a mother gives birth, it is equivalent to going through the hell gate. At that time You are the most helpless, and it will not take any trouble to get rid of you! In this way, even the King of Qi will not have any doubts."
Shen Huan's heart brightened, and he already understood. What he meant was that the Queen Mother would take action when she gave birth! Then he would tell Cang Hao that he died because of giving birth, and Cang Hao would not blame the Queen Mother. !Okay, okay, okay, it is indeed a good idea!
So, did Ye Cangqiong, who wanted to keep himself in the palace, also become the Queen Mother's accomplice?
He took a deep breath and asked the eunuch: "Have you been in the Western Palace for a long time?"
The little eunuch smiled softly and said, "I only entered the palace last year."
Shen Huan raised his eyebrows and said: "I only entered the palace last year and now I can work as an errand in the Queen Mother's Palace? The news I heard is not something that ordinary people can know."
The little eunuch chuckled and said: "The empress is very observant. Yes, this slave is not the original little eunuch of the Queen Mother's Palace. It just has an extra layer of human skin mask."
Shen Huan nodded slightly and was about to say something when the little eunuch reminded him in a low voice: "Be careful, your Majesty, someone is coming. Your Majesty, please find a way to leave the palace as soon as possible." After that, he nodded lightly and quietly left.
Qingyue came over holding a cushion and said "Hey" when she saw Shen Huan sitting there.
Shen Wen smiled and said: "Someone passed by just now and happened to be holding a mat. He was kind enough to sit down for me first. I've almost rested. Let's go back."
Qingyue nodded, went over to help Shen Huan up, and asked: "Then this mat..."
Shen Huan said: "Leave it for now, they will come and get it later."
"OK"
Returning to Nuanyu Pavilion, I had a hasty lunch and fell asleep with a lot of thoughts. Days are short in winter. When I woke up, it was almost evening.
Shen Huan felt uncomfortable all over after thinking too much and sleeping for too long. She felt lazy and her head hurt from time to time.
She ate less dinner than usual. In fact, she had eaten a lot more since she was pregnant, but she ate a little less tonight. Qingyue was worried that she was not feeling well, but Ye Cangqiong somehow knew about it and came over not long after. look at her
Shen Huan laughed sarcastically: "The emperor is so nervous, people who don't know will misunderstand him."
Ye Cangqiong glanced at her coldly: "What's the misunderstanding? Did you misunderstand that this child is mine?"
Shen Huan was speechless, his eyes lowered, and he looked at the ground with his toes. Ye Cangqiong suddenly asked: "Have you seen the concubine today?"
"Yes," Shen Huan replied absently.
"Did she say anything to you?"
Shen Huan raised his head and looked at him and said, "It's just a matter of saying something for the occasion, how about that?"
"It's nothing." Ye Cangqiong avoided her eyes, "If I said something that made you unhappy, you don't have to take it to heart."
Shen Huan laughed: "What can she say... is it because of Nuanyu Pavilion?"
Ye Cangqiong did not answer, and Shen Huan chuckled and said: "There is a widespread rumor among outsiders that Your Majesty loves Concubine Xi very much, but I didn't expect that this was not the case!"
Ye Cangqiong said coldly: "Pampering and arrogance are two different things."
Shen Wen smiled deliberately and said: "I thought Your Majesty would say that favor and love are two different things!"
Ye Cangqiong killed him with an eye strike. Shen Huan smiled to himself, but suddenly frowned and pressed his stomach with his hand. It seemed that he was in pain. Ye Cangqiong hurriedly walked to her side and asked: "What's wrong? Stomach pain? I'll go and tell the imperial doctor." Just as he was about to turn around, Shen Huan reached out and grabbed him, holding his hand tightly and refusing to let go.
He frowned slightly, but Shen Wen pulled him hard, pulling him very close to her. On the one hand, he wanted to keep a distance from her, but on the other hand, he couldn't help but want to get closer to her.
Shen Wen took advantage of the situation and hooked his neck. Their faces were so close that they would touch each other if they moved closer.
Shen Huan had no scruples and stared straight into his evil eyes. These eyes were really charming. It turned out that the difference between him and Cang Hao was the eyes.
Ye Cangqiong is evil and charming, Ye Canghao is pure
They looked at each other face to face like this. Ye Cangqiong's breathing gradually became a little faster. He saw a faint smile in Shen Huan's bright eyes to seduce this woman. She clearly did it on purpose! But damn, he seemed to really He couldn't control himself... he involuntarily moved closer, and his lips were about to kiss her nose.
Shen Huan raised the corners of her lips, raised her neck, and whispered in his ear: "I think Concubine Xi looks a lot like the same person..."
Ye Cangqiong's heartbeat suddenly increased rapidly. He looked at Shen Huan with a smile in her eyes coldly, pushed her hands away from his neck, stood up straight, and asked, "Is your stomach okay?"
Shen Huan laughed heartily: "Your Majesty cares so much about me, how can I dare to do anything wrong to you?"
Ye Cangqiong suppressed his anger, pointed at her and said: "Next time you dare to do this again, be careful, I will break your neck!" He turned around fiercely, swung his sleeves and left.
Shen Huan said lazily: "Are you willing to do it?"
Ye Cangqiong was stunned, only paused for a few seconds, and then strode out of Nuanyu Pavilion.
Shen Wen burst out laughing and said to Qingyue, who was already frightened, "Go and find out where the emperor has gone."
Qingyue ran out quickly and came back not long after to tell Shen Huan: "The emperor went to the concubine Xi"
Shen Huan raised the corners of her lips and smiled, oh, sure enough!
