Chapter 294: The Unruly and Willful Concubine (13)
Chapter 294: The Unruly and Willful Concubine (13)
After a night of indulgence, Gu Zhen was actually very tired.
No one knows how this secret guard leader Gu Jiuyuan grew up, he has endless strength and energy.
There was a sense of piety in her ferocity, as if she were some holy treasure.
But she had to do the whole act, so Gu Zhen perked up, and lay on her side delicately, her eyes full of affection and infinite love.
"Your Majesty, I am finally your woman. I am so happy."
Zhan Linxiao was startled by the hoarse voice, and wherever his eyes looked, he saw indescribable absurdity.
The glaring red color spoke volumes about last night’s indulgence.
Zhan Linxiao suddenly didn't dare to look at his concubine, nor did he dare to think about what Shu'er would do if she knew everything.
"Your Highness, you have worked hard. Please take a rest first. I will return to Qianning Palace."
After leaving this sentence, he almost fled.
Gu Zhen didn't try to persuade him to stay. He yawned, turned over and fell asleep.
When Zhan Linxiao went out, Liu Quanfu just came back. When he saw the emperor, he quickly came over to serve him.
What a tactless dog slave! He didn't know how to stop him yesterday. Zhan Linxiao was somewhat sobered up by the morning breeze. Endless guilt filled his heart, and he kicked him out without thinking.
"You bastard, why didn't you call me out earlier!"
Liu Quanfu fell to the ground, feeling extremely aggrieved. The emperor and the imperial concubine were extremely loving and yesterday was the emperor's birthday. There were so many shoutings in the room, who would dare to go in?
But he didn't dare to refute, he got up and knelt down and kowtowed: "I deserve to die, please punish me, Your Majesty!"
Zhan Linxiao frowned in annoyance. It was not Liu Quanfu's fault. It was all because he kept the secret too secret.
"Get up, and go back to Qianning Palace... By the way, didn't the Queen Mother send anyone to call me last night?"
Why didn't I hear any sound?
Liu Quanfu bowed his head and replied, "Your Majesty, Miss Shen came last night, but the servants didn't want to disturb the emperor and the queen, so Miss Shen waited outside for a while and then left."
Zhan Linxiao seemed to be struck by lightning, his body swayed. In front of his eyes, one moment he was swearing and swearing with Shen Fangshu, and the next moment he was seeing the scene of his incestuous relationship with the imperial concubine last night.
The torment in his heart almost tore him apart; it hurt so much that he couldn't let go of the lover who had shared life and death with him, and he also seemed to miss the overwhelming pleasure from the bottom of his heart.
Zhan Linxiao stood there for a long time with a pale face, and the voice seemed to be chewed and spit out bit by bit: "Help me go back."
Bi Ru had a complicated expression as she watched the emperor's back walking away. She never expected that her master would be so bold!
This is a capital crime for defiling the harem!
But the incident had already happened, and as the only person who knew about it, the only thing she could do was to help her master bury it.
What did she say to Shen Fangshu last night?
"Aunt Shen, listen to the noise inside. The emperor is in a good mood. It's not appropriate for you to go in. Besides, this is the imperial concubine's palace. Even if you are a first-class maid beside the emperor, it's not appropriate to disturb the emperor's private affairs, right?"
Shen Fangshu felt like someone stabbed her in the heart several times when she was outside. She was staggering and had to pinch her palms tightly to stop herself from crying.
Thinking of this, Bi Ru shook her head. It wasn't easy for her queen either. Since she entered the palace, she always thought that she was the apple of the emperor's eye, but it turned out to be a cover.
The most hateful one is the emperor!
Bi Ru glared at him angrily, then turned and went into the house to clean up.
At this time, Zhan Linxiao almost ran all the way back to Qianning Palace.
He stood at the door, his feet seemed to be rooted to the ground, unable to get up.
After a long time, Zhan Linxiao gently pushed open the door of the bedroom.
As usual, this place is spacious, clean, exquisite and luxurious everywhere, but there is no trace of busy figures.
Zhan Linxiao was overwhelmed by panic and called out Shen Fangshu's name tremblingly.
What responded to him was endless silence.
"Your Majesty, Miss Shen went to Yongle Palace and did not come back last night." The palace servant serving outside reported.
Zhan Linxiao let out a breath, then turned around and ran wildly again.
Liu Quanfu followed behind, not only was he confused, but he was also gasping for breath due to exhaustion.
He didn't sleep all night yesterday and had been running around for so long, his old bones really couldn't take it anymore.
When he arrived at Yongle Palace, Zhan Linxiao was already sweating profusely. As soon as he entered, he saw the figure he had been thinking about.
Shen Fangshu stayed beside the empress dowager with a sad face. Her eyes had already swollen like walnuts and there was no blood on her lips. She looked so pitiful.
"Shu'er..."
The queen mother's face turned pale. She waved her hand and asked everyone in the room to leave. She slammed the table and scolded, "Xiao'er! You are confused! How could you let Shu'er down!"
Zhan Linxiao felt even more guilty and stared at Shen Fangshu: "It's my fault. I drank too much last night. The imperial concubine must have used some tricks, otherwise I... I..."
He couldn't say it, because the feeling yesterday was too real. He thought he was sober and was sinking soberly.
Even some conversations and actions were still echoing in his mind, but he didn't feel anything unusual, except that he was a little tired from being too indulgent.
When he was still an unpopular prince in his early years, Zhan Linxiao was drugged because of his outstanding appearance. He had not felt that kind of strange restlessness last night.
He had to admit that he had wanted the concubine out of passion.
Zhan Linxiao's silence made the empress dowager opposite even more angry. She glanced at Shen Fangshu who was about to cry, suddenly stood up, walked over and slapped her son.
"Snap" sounded, echoing in the silent palace.
"Xiao'er! Have you forgotten how we got through these years? If it weren't for Shu'er, we would have died in the cold palace! You said you would never let Shu'er down, do you still remember your oath?"
Zhan Linxiao glanced at Shen Fangshu, who was biting her lip and crying. It turned out that she had told her mother everything.
"Mother, it's my son's fault. I promise I will never touch the imperial concubine again. Last night was a mistake. Let's let it go, okay?"
The Queen Mother still sided with her son in her heart. She had given him a fatal slap and now she felt heartbroken.
"You talk to Shu'er yourself. I'll go to the inner room."
Zhan Linxiao personally helped his mother in, and came out from behind a moment later and hugged Shen Fangshu, who was crying with her head down.
Shen Fangshu was shocked and subconsciously wanted to push him away, but his arms were too strong and they restrained her so that she couldn't move.
"Shu'er, forgive me, please forgive me. I was really drunk. I swear, I will never go to other women in the future. Please don't ignore me..."
Shen Fangshu believed that he was truly regretful, and she had never doubted her feelings for Zhan Linxiao.
But the piercing pain reminded her that the man behind her was actually married to another woman, and that woman was his legitimate concubine.
Not only is she beautiful, but she is also knowledgeable and talented, and has the support of the Gu family army. What can Shen Fangshu rely on to compete with such a woman?
With a sad smile, Shen Fangshu burst into tears. What if she had known earlier that she would have agreed to enter the harem as a concubine?
Maybe we can still fight for it openly!
"Ah Xiao, I don't want to see Gu Zhen again. Please, send her away, okay?"
