"..." After hearing Concubine Dong Xian's reminder, Yun Jingchu smiled slightly and said nothing.
"Jingchu, what do you think?" Concubine Dong Xian looked at Yun Jingchu with a worried look.
"Of course my thoughts are the same as before." Yun Jingchu said with a smile.
"That's very good..." Concubine Dong Xian breathed a sigh of relief, and then immediately frowned, "But if you reject the emperor, the emperor will definitely be angry."
"Don't worry, Concubine Xian, I have my own sense of discretion." Yun Jingchu replied with a smile.
Soon, they arrived at Yue'an Palace, and Concubine Dong Xian led her into Dongfang Chen's room.
When the two of them entered, Dongfang Chen was leaning on the couch with his eyes closed to relax.
An Fuhai and four maids stood quietly aside.
Hearing the footsteps of Concubine Dong Xian and Yun Jingchu, Dongfang Chen slowly opened his eyes and looked at Yun Jingchu with a hint of expectation and excitement in his eyes: "You are here."
"See you, Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty." Yun Jingchu and Concubine Dong Xian saluted.
"Quickly get back on your feet." Dongfang Chen quickly stood up and went to help Yun Jingchu himself.
Yun Jingchu seemed to be shy and stood up quickly without letting Dongfang Chen touch his arm.
Dongfang Chen was stunned for a moment, then a flash of realization flashed in his eyes, and he turned to An Fuhai and said, "An Fuhai, you and the four of them can go out. You are not allowed to come in without my permission."
"Yes, Your Majesty." An Fuhai responded, then waved his hand and retreated with the four maids.
"Okay, there is no one else here now, Concubine Xian, Princess Yun'an, please sit down." Dongfang Chen said as he sat back down.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." After thanking him, Yun Jingchu and Concubine Dong Xian sat down on the low couch opposite Dongfang Chen, with a long table between them.
Dongfang Chen picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip of tea, then looked up at Yun Jingchu, and said with a hint of exploration: "Princess Yun'an, on the way here, Concubine Xian should have told you that I am here.
Have you found your purpose?"
Yun Jingchu was slightly startled. She didn't expect Dongfang Chen to speak in this way. In this case, she couldn't pretend to be stupid anymore...
Yun Jingchu took a deep breath, then looked straight at Dongfang Chen and said, "The Concubine Xian has already spoken before you return to the Emperor."
"So, what do you think?" Dongfang Chen's eyes flashed with anticipation, and then he said.
"Your Majesty, before my daughter answers, could you please listen to my daughter tell you a story? After listening to my daughter's story, your emperor may have a different choice." A faint smile appeared at the corner of Yun Jingchu's mouth.
"Oh?" Dongfang Chen raised his eyebrows, "Come and listen."
"This story is a bit long, so I kindly ask the Emperor and the Concubine Xian not to interrupt me." Yun Jingchu said with a calm expression.
Unexpectedly, Yun Jingchu would make such a request. Dongfang Chen and Concubine Dong Xian were both stunned at the same time...
"Okay, I promise you." After a moment of silence, Dongfang Chen said happily.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yun Jingchu nodded, with a cold smile slowly blooming at the corner of his mouth, "What I want to tell is the story of a woman. This woman entered the palace as a palace maid at the age of thirteen, and was assigned an incredible job.
Serving at the side of the powerful prince..."
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Chen and Concubine Dong Xian's expressions changed, and they suddenly looked at Yun Jingchu.
Yun Jingchu ignored Concubine Dong Xian's reaction, but stared at Dongfang Chen closely, with a calm expression, and continued talking.
