Xichen looked at Shen Huan. Under the loose robe was a delicate body. His brows were slightly furrowed and his eyes were as heavy as water. He bit his lower lip lightly with his teeth and held his hands in front of his chest.
He held her in his arms and sighed deeply
He just wanted her to be by his side, he just wanted to make up for the sins he had committed against her, but in exchange, she was ostracized, jealous, and hurt time and time again.
"What should I do? What should I do?" he murmured.
He still has the fragrance of Du Heng on him, and his habits of more than ten years cannot be changed by becoming an emperor.
The incense used by the emperor is the most noble ambergris
The emperor is ruthless, but even though he is so noble, he can't let go of his attachment to her
"Let me go..." Her voice sounded like a mosquito, as if she was begging, but she knew that was impossible.
Xichen's embrace tightened again. After a moment of inner struggle, he slowly said: "I will protect you well and never let you be hurt again."
He admits that love is selfish
"I'm tired," Shen Huan said softly.
She doesn't really want him to let go. Even if he wants to let go, she won't leave so easily.
She is so close to him now, she wants to be closer to him
"Go to bed when you are tired, have a good sleep, and you will be fine when you wake up tomorrow morning."
Shen Huan returned to her residence and slept as she was told. Before she closed her eyes, she knew that the more she suffered, the more she would gain.
As the teacher once said: Show weakness in front of others and win without fighting.
Therefore, in front of Xichen, she will always be so lonely and helpless and...appropriately playing hard to get.
When I woke up, it was already noon on the second day
After she finished dressing and washing, she took a look at the black robe and thought about when to go back.
Someone knocked on the door, and what came in was fragrant tea.
When Xiangming saw her, she was all smiles. She blessed her and said, "Miss, I'm very happy."
Shen Huan's heart skipped a beat and she asked lightly: "Why are you so happy?"
Xiangming pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "I just went to serve tea in front of the emperor. I thought I was going to be promoted to Miss. The imperial edict is coming soon? I haven't seen Manager An today, but there is a young father-in-law serving the emperor."
Jin Feng? Shen Huan clenched her fists fiercely. She wanted to be close to Xichen, but she didn't want to be his concubine!
He was in a dilemma last night. He didn't want her to get hurt, but he didn't want to let her go either.
So, is this about canonizing yourself?
If this is the case, it is absolutely impossible!
Her heart is with Xichao, and the person she loves is Chu Xichao!
She has always only wanted to be Xi Chao's wife. Even if she wants revenge, she doesn't want to pay the price with her own body!
Shen Huan stumbled out, trying to stop the imperial edict before it came down!
He was running too fast, and as soon as he went out, he bumped into a young eunuch. The eunuch started yelling and was about to scold him, but when he looked up and saw Shen Huan, he actually smiled.
"Miss, you came out just in time, hurry up and take the order!" the little eunuch said with a smile.
Shen Huan forced herself to calm down and glanced at him, feeling that he looked familiar to him. He was punished last night and he might not be able to serve him in the next few days, so this little eunuch must have come to replace him.
Seeing that Shen Huan was stunned, the eunuch opened the imperial edict and said in a high-pitched voice: "By the way..."
"Don't read it!" Shen Huan shouted angrily
The eunuch was startled and looked at her blankly
Shen Huan snatched the imperial edict from his hand and strode towards Shangyang Palace.
Xichen was eating. There were dozens of delicacies placed on the long square table. There were a row of eunuchs standing on both sides, and four eunuchs stood behind him.
Seeing Shen Huan coming, he put down the small bowl in his hand with a yellow background and gold braised xi characters. There was half a bowl of rice in the bowl.
"It's just in time. Have you received the edict? Once you have received it, come and have dinner with me. You must be hungry too." Xichen was about to order someone to add a seat, but Shen Huan knelt down and presented the edict with both hands.
"Your Majesty, please take back your order!" Xichen looked at her steadily and waved his hand: "All of you, go down!" The eunuchs who served the kitchen quietly withdrew, leaving only the two of them in the palace.
"Rise up and speak"
Shen Huan did not move, still holding the imperial edict high
Xichen sighed, took the imperial edict over, read it again, and asked, "Is it because the grade is not high?"
Shen Wen's body trembled, and Xichen sighed again: "It doesn't matter, you were young when you entered the palace. Moreover, according to your age, the position of imperial minister is really not suitable for you. However, this position can always be by my side. I I can take care of you..."
Shen Huan had no time to listen to the rest of the words, so she raised her head and asked: "Is this the imperial minister?"
Xichen was stunned and asked, "Didn't you read this imperial edict? Where is Xiao Shizi? How did he deliver the edict?"
Xiao Shizi heard the emperor's question outside, and hurriedly ran in, knelt down, and kept kowtowing: "The slave is guilty, the slave is guilty..."
Xichen looked at him, then at Shen Huan, and then remembered her irritable look just now, and suddenly understood, a smile appeared on her lips.
Shen Wen's face turned red to the base of her neck
Xichen laughed heartily, held Shen Huan's shoulders and said, "You! You are still as reckless as when you were a child! What, do you want me to take back your life now?"
Shen Huanfu knelt down again and said, "I would like to thank the Emperor for your kindness."
