The next second, Si Ningchi looked lazily and retracted her hand. She slowly fiddled with the folding fan in her hand and whispered: "Get out."
"There will be no place for you in Fengwu Palace from now on." Si Ningchi's words were soft and plain, but they were like a long knife thrust straight into Shen Ting's heart. He thought he could withstand it. He could endure beatings, scoldings, and punishments, let alone sticks falling on him, and he was not afraid of having his hands or legs broken.
But...
Shen Ting never expected that all she did was treat him coldly and expel him from Fengwu Palace.
"Your Majesty, this servant is wrong." Shen Ting's face turned pale, he raised his head and looked at Si Ningchi in panic and said: "My Majesty, please don't drive this servant away..."
"It is my mercy to spare you your life." Si Ningchi sneered, stood up and walked away. Her ruthlessness made Shen Ting's pleas seem useless. For the first time, he felt Fear.
What are you afraid of?
Shen Ting knelt on the ground tremblingly, clenching his fists as if he was suppressing his illness. While suppressing the emotions surging in his chest, his nails were embedded in his flesh. He was still kneeling on the ground long after Si Ningchi left.< /p>
Su Yongde poked his head around for a long time, and just when he was about to step forward to persuade him, Shen Ting suddenly raised his hand and punched the ground directly. The ground was paved with bluestone slabs, and it cracked under the force he exerted!
Su Yongde: "..."
He watched Shen Ting stand up with his own eyes, blood still dripping from the joints on the back of his hand.
Su Yongde didn't know what Shen Ting had done to make the Queen so angry that he expelled Shen Ting from Fengwu Palace. How did Shen Ting win the respect of the Queen after he came to Fengwu Palace?< /p>
Even Su Yongde and Suyun, who were the first to follow the empress, knew only a little about some things, but Shen Ting was able to enter the empress's bedroom.
Su Yongde would be lying if he said he wasn't jealous. Before Shen Ting came, he was the leader of the eunuchs, but after Shen Ting came, he had to make smiles to Shen Ting. Who is more powerful?
But now...
"Su Yongde, please use your connections to send Shen Ting to a place that is not tiring." Su Yun did not dare to go to the empress to persuade her. She only pulled Su Yongde and said: "The empress may be angry for a moment."
"Shen Ting has been following the empress since he entered the palace. If he gets bullied after leaving Fengwu Palace, there will be no one to help him." Su Yun lowered his voice and said, "Send it to the Siyuan Bureau to plant vegetables and water the empress. Let's wait until the empress calms down. Then try to persuade me a little or two."
"Don't worry, I know." It's true that Su Yongde is jealous of Shen Ting, but he also admires her.
He could see that Shen Ting was sincerely working for the Empress. If someone tried to assassinate the Empress, he would really stand in the way!
Although Su Yongde was an eunuch, he was a serious gentleman and never wanted to add insult to injury. He felt uneasy without Shen Ting in Fengwu Palace. They had worked together for so long, and he had already regarded him as his brother.
Now I am trying to find a good place for Shen Ting without letting the Queen know...
Su Yongde and Su Yun were still planning to appease the Queen, but at this time, Si Ningchi was silently thinking about how to kill Shen Ting so happily.
She can't keep things that are not loyal to her.
It shouldn't be. According to the plot of the original manga, Shen Ting has always been devoted to the queen and never had any objections. Why is there a deviation now? Even the slightest deviation cannot be underestimated.
What Si Ningchi wants is to treat others in their own way. How can Si Qionglian lie at the city gate intact?
Obviously, Shen Ting did not obey her orders and he withheld his hand from Si Qionglian.
Why?
Si Ningchi expelled Shen Ting from Fengwu Palace because he wanted to find out. If he hadn't been familiar with the plot, Si Ningchi might have taken action when he realized that Shen Ting had different intentions. After all, in Si Ningchi's view, Shen Ting If this person cannot be fully controlled, he cannot be retained no matter what.
"Your Majesty, the little princess is safe and sound." Su Yun did not dare to talk about Shen Ting directly, and now she only dared to talk about other things.
"Yes." Si Ningchi responded in a moderate tone. Before he could say a few more words, he heard the emperor coming.
Zhao Zongheng was in a bit of a bad mood. He didn't sleep last night because of the disappearance of the little princess. He had gone to court early. As soon as he left court, he heard news from the Xiwu Marquis Mansion. These one after another events gave Zhao Zongheng no time to rest.
Now that he entered Fengwu Palace, the tense expression on his face relaxed, and he walked towards Si Ningchi with a slumped face. He hugged her directly, pressed her shoulders with his whole body, and said in a muffled voice: "I'm tired..."
The emperor, who seemed so calm and composed outside, seemed to suddenly be relieved of all his burdens when he came to her, trying to find a moment of rest.
Si Ningchi's shoulders sank under the pressure of him, and he pushed him a little funny and said: "How can you come to the concubine's palace if you are tired?"
"Huh." Zhao Zongheng straightened up, looked at Si Ningchi with a warm expression, and said, "Is the incident involving Si Qiong Lian in the Marquis of Xiwu Mansion your handiwork?"
"..." Si Ningchi raised his eyebrows slightly, apparently acquiescing.
"Good lesson." Zhao Zongheng curled his lips and smiled, stretched out his hand to touch her face and said, "No one was killed."
Si Ningchi: "..."
She couldn't understand this emperor. She was obviously so ruthless in her methods and ruthless in her behavior, but he could always find excuses to get her back inexplicably, and he was never dissatisfied. Why was he like this?
Zhao Zongheng gently pinched Siningchi's chin and said: "The little princess is fine. The queen has done me a great favor. What reward do you want?"
Si Ningchi raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Anything is fine?"
"Don't have your own thoughts." Zhao Zongheng was silent for a moment, looking at Si Ningchi's smiling face and feeling inexplicably uneasy. He was really afraid that the queen would make some terrible request, and he felt that he didn't want to die so early.
"I'll take a nap." Zhao Zongheng couldn't hold it any longer, so he muttered something vague and walked into Siningchi's dormitory to sleep on her bed.
After all, Si Ningchi was not willing to stop Zhao Zongheng, but instead called Wang Chengxiang to ask about King Lu and the little princess. After learning that there was nothing serious, he didn't ask any more questions.
I originally wanted Zhao Zongheng to rest for a while, but who knew that Zhao Yuanzhen came just after Zhao Zongheng fell asleep.
"The Queen." Zhao Yuanzhen bowed to Si Ningchi and said, "I am here to see the Emperor."
"Your Majesty, please rest. It's the same thing if your uncle has anything to do with me." Si Ningchi raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Yuanzhen with a smile.
Zhao Yuanzhen looked at Si Ningchi and fell silent. He didn't know when she would be able to replace the emperor.
Zhao Yuanzhen didn't want to pay attention to it, but suddenly he remembered what Zhao Zongheng said to him, which made him trust the queen.
Zhao Yuanzhen regained his energy, looked at Si Ningchi for a long time, then lowered his head and said: "I came here because of the unexplained disappearance of the little princess."
