Zhao Zongheng looked at the closed door of Fengwu Palace: "Alas——"
"I should have known better." It's hard to guess what the woman was thinking. She had obviously been kissed last time, so why was she slapped today?
Alas.
It’s hard to be a wise king.
If he is a foolish king, right...
Are you sleeping on the same bed as the queen now?
Zhao Zongheng was sitting on the dragon chair, thinking about it, and suddenly he felt a little distraught, and even the tips of his ears had a hint of blush.
"Go to Xuanming Hall." Zhao Zongheng coughed slightly and turned around to order.
"Ah?" Wang Chengxiang said with some confusion: "Your Majesty, you still want to read the book at this hour?"
"Yeah." Zhao Zongheng responded in a deep voice.
Read more and calm down.
There has been a serious snowstorm in Jiangbei, and the DPRK and China have been arguing about it these days. Perhaps it is because the weather has gradually become colder, and the wind blowing in these days has given people headaches.
Si Ningchi hid in the hall without showing his head, and looked up to see Su Yongde running in.
"Your Majesty, this is a strange thing." Su Yongde hurriedly approached Si Ningchi and said, "The man from Yuhua Palace actually left the palace gate and headed towards Xuanming Palace."
"Who?" Si Ningchi frowned.
"Who else could it be? It's the Concubine Shu." Su Yongde said in a rather novel tone: "It's very windy outside today. Even such a blowing wind can't stop the Concubine Shu from going to see the emperor.
The slave thought something must have happened."
"I have never heard of anything going wrong in the Mei family. Why is Concubine Shu rushing to meet the emperor?" Si Ningchi sat up straight, raised his hand and said, "You, let someone keep an eye on it."

"Don't worry, my empress, I've already sent you to squat down." Su Yongde said quickly: "At this moment, Concubine Shu may have already met the emperor, and she will ask Luo Jin for more information later."
Si Ningchi agreed casually and asked Su Yongde to inquire about the recent developments of the Mei family.
There was no movement in Xuanming Palace. Concubine Shu came out shortly after entering, and turned around and returned to Yuhua Palace. This time, everyone was confused. Looking at Concubine Shu, they didn't know why.

Luo Jin didn't ask what was going on. When the emperor met Concubine Shu, there was no one waiting in front of him. They were also puzzled. They only vaguely heard something about Jiangbei outside the palace.
"The Mei family is a famous family in the capital. How can it have anything to do with Jiangbei?" Si Ningchi held the handkerchief in his hand and thought for a while: "Is it possible that the emperor asked the Mei family to go to the disaster relief?"
"No, I have asked about it. The disaster relief has not been decided yet, but the emperor seems to want King Jing to go there and not listen to the Timei family." Su Yongde said quickly.
"That's strange..."
Si Ningchi raised his eyebrows, not knowing the purpose of Concubine Shu's trip.
Until dinner time: "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu has invited the Emperor to have dinner at Yuhua Palace."
This was the first time that Concubine Shu took the initiative to get close to the emperor. Not only did Si Ningchi know about this, but all the concubines in the harem knew about it, and no matter who they were, they were shocked.
"Concubine Shu finally bowed her head." Concubine De smiled silently, looking at the majestic palace in front of her with helplessness and sighing. She originally thought that Concubine Shu would keep herself locked up in Yuhua Palace for the rest of her life, but she didn't expect
She finally bowed her head.
Concubine De couldn't explain how she felt. She seemed to think that Concubine Shu was ridiculous. She had stood up to her for so long, but she didn't expect that she still bowed her head now. She also seemed to feel humbled for herself.
Perhaps in the eyes of Concubine De, the existence of Concubine Shu happened to make up for the tenacity in her heart. Can anyone really be so indifferent under the imperial power? Maybe she has some admiration for Concubine Shu, or maybe she has some yearning for her? It's a pity that this expectation and yearning collapsed before her eyes.
Under the palace walls, no one can stay away.
Concubine Xian had just removed the medicine bowl from the palace. When she heard about this, she smiled: "It has been three years, but she has not forgotten that person. Look how lively the palace is."
In the Yuhua Palace, Concubine Shu was wearing a lotus pink satin skirt, her figure was delicate and delicate, and she looked like a weak willow supporting the wind. She knelt down in front of Zhao Zongheng with a tea cup, raised the tea above her head and said: "Your Majesty, drink
Tea."
Zhao Zongheng lowered his eyes without moving, looking at Concubine Shu with a calm and indifferent expression.
"I have been ill for a long time. It is my fault that I have not been able to serve the Emperor well. Now that I am in good health, I will serve the Emperor well from now on." Concubine Shu spoke softly and tactfully, then raised the tea in her hand and said: "
Invite the Emperor to tea."
"It's so sudden that you recovered from your illness." Zhao Zongheng lowered his eyes, reached out and took the tea from Concubine Shu, but did not drink it, but casually put it on the table.
"You won't be sick anymore?" Zhao Zongheng lazily raised his eyes and looked at Concubine Shu.
"I will definitely take good care of my health in the future." Concubine Shu gently curved her lips and smiled, raising her head, looking at Zhao Zongheng with such gentle and affectionate eyebrows, and said: "After all, I am a person of the emperor, and I am a concubine for the emperor.
You also have to take good care of yourself."
"Okay."
Zhao Zongheng stood up, flicked his sleeves and said: "Mei Lifeng has done a good job recently, I will reward him well."
He lowered his eyes and looked at Concubine Shu who was kneeling on the ground and said, "Since you have just recovered from your illness, you should have a good rest."
Concubine Shu suddenly became anxious when she saw Zhao Zongheng raising his feet to leave. She quickly stood up and stepped forward boldly, reaching out and grabbing Zhao Zongheng's sleeves. She gasped softly and lowered her voice and whispered: "Your Majesty, can you do it today?"
Can't you leave?"
"..."
"No." Zhao Zongheng turned his head and glanced at Concubine Shu inexplicably, raised his hand and pulled his sleeve back and said: "I'm afraid I'll get sick if I stay here for a long time."
Concubine Shu, who had been brewing her emotions for a long time: "..."
His face turned pale with anger, and he clenched his sleeves fiercely as he watched the emperor leave. This was really a hole he dug himself.
Zhao Zongheng Shi Shiran entered the gate of Fengwu Palace and saw Si Ningchi who was eating and drinking. His heart was cut with a knife. He secretly scolded Concubine Shu for being ignorant. Why did she hold him back for a while?
Look! I’m a step too late, and the queen has eaten all the meat!
"Ah, why is the emperor here?" Si Ningchi wiped the oil stains on his mouth, looked at Zhao Zongheng in surprise and said: "What's wrong, the food in Yuhua Palace doesn't taste good?"
"You will make fun of me." Zhao Zongheng awkwardly sat next to Si Ningchi: "Make me another one."
This tone is quite confident.
Si Ningchi snorted softly, raised his hand and pointed to the small kitchen and said: "The kitchen is there. If you want to eat, you can cook it yourself."
Zhao Zongheng immediately sat up straight: "I am the emperor!"
"I'm still the queen." Si Ningchi smiled brightly at Zhao Zongheng, which immediately frightened Zhao Zongheng. The dignified Emperor Tianqing rolled up his sleeves and said: "Just do it."
I am the emperor, what else can I do that he cannot do?
