"This is your servant's responsibility, as it should be. As long as the emperor is happy," Shui Fu replied respectfully.
Dugu Cheng nodded approvingly and said: "If you do well, you will be rewarded. Also, remember to bring that woman to Chengqian Palace for me tonight."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Shuifu responded loudly.
In that room, Ye Shengxia rushed back to Fengqing Palace and felt sulky for a while, then lay down on the couch and slept.
After waking up, she forgot about her previous unpleasantness and played checkers with Yin'eryu'er. Every time she almost lost, she would cheat, either destroying the game or starting from scratch.[
"Your Majesty, it's always like this, it's not fair!" Yin'er muttered dissatisfied.
Ye Shengxia slapped Yin'er on the head and scolded: "Who is the master of Fengqing Palace?!"
"Empress!" Yin'er replied reluctantly.
"Who is your master?" Ye Shengxia asked again.
"Empress." Yin'er lowered her head a little.
"Who treats you the best at ordinary times?" Ye Shengxia became more and more proud as he asked.
"Empress..." Yin'er's voice became less and less confident.
"Now that I want to start over, do you have any objections?" Ye Shengxia narrowed his eyes and asked.
"No, I don't dare to have any objections as a slave," Yin'er replied helplessly.
Who said her master was a scoundrel? She was obsessed with saving face. Whenever she saw that she was about to lose, she would start over. She should have accepted her fate long ago.
"Isn't this it? Let's start over again. I will definitely win you this time!" Ye Shengxia was so happy that he couldn't help but rearrange the checkers.
Just when she was excited, there were footsteps approaching from far away, and soon someone arrived in front of her.
"This slave is here to pick up the empress and take her to Chengqian Palace." The person leading the charge was none other than Shui Fu.
"Shui Fu, it's you. I remember that I fell into your trap today. You are quite capable, and your ability to frame people is exactly what your master did." Ye Shengxia smiled softly.
He glanced at Shui Fu.
If it weren't for Shui Fu's harmless smile, how could she have jumped into the trap set by Dugu City without any warning?
"There is nothing I can do about it. These are the emperor's wishes. If the empress wants to blame, blame the emperor. Why don't the empress go to Chengqian Palace now and argue with the emperor?" Shui Fu replied cautiously.
"I won't be fooled by you this time. I just said that I like scoundrels the most. I won't recognize today's results. Where did you come from and where are you going back?" Ye Shengxia narrowed his eyes with a smile.
