Feng Ningyan hastily interrupted, "Ah, that …" "Oh, empress dowager, aren't you going to host the talent show ceremony tomorrow? How about this little girl send you back to the Palace? Tell me the rules and the situation."
Hearing this, the empress dowager hastened to say, "That's right. Let's go. There's no need for us here. You and Jue'er, don't leave the palace for now. Go sit at the Palace."
Feng Ning Yan hastily replied, "Yes, empress dowager." Raising his head, he fiercely gouged out Shen Ling Jue's eyes.
However, Shen Ling Jue gave her a charming smile and whispered, "This king is waiting for my consort."
The empress dowager sat in a palanquin, Feng Ningyan and Shen Ling Jue followed behind and left Chen Ming Palace.
Shen Youhuang had been walking behind Ling Jue and Feng Ningyan the entire time. When she heard them mention the matters of the Southern Wilderness and saw that the empress dowager was continuously praising her, her face turned malevolent.
It was clear that he was the one who took over the crown prince's position. However, the Emperor only brought up the matter of Shen Ling ordering Du Kai to lead the military and protect the crown prince. He did not even mention a single word about him taking down the crown prince.
The empress dowager was still cold and indifferent towards him, which made him feel an indescribable hatred in his heart.
Shen Youhuang's mother had died a long time ago and was raised under the empress's wing when she was still a baby. She grew up in Kunyi Palace and was bullied by the crown prince. No one had ever thought that she was also an incomparably respected prince.
Later on, even though he was bestowed the title of King, he had no choice but to do so when he reached the age limit. However, his mansion couldn't be compared to Shen Lingjue's, and his power couldn't be compared to Shen Lingjue's, he didn't even have a feudal fiefdom.
This injustice had taught him to fight for whatever he wanted!
Now that the crown prince had been eliminated, the next step was Shen Ling Jue!
Shen Youhuang was in the midst of pondering when she suddenly felt a hand reach out from behind a boulder to grab his sleeve.
He jumped in fright, and upon closer inspection, the person pulling him was actually Hua Ruyu, who hadn't appeared for a long time.
Hua Ruyu's face turned pale, looking delicate and pitiful. "Your Highness, I've been waiting for you here for a long time …" She threw herself into Shen Youhuang's arms as she spoke.
Shen Youhuang hastily pushed her away and looked around in panic. She heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that there was no one around.
"Ruo Yu, you got a shock today. Let this king see if you're injured."
His gentleness moved Hua Ruyu.
"Your Highness …" Hua Ruyu said tearfully, "Ruyu couldn't bear to part with Your Highness, so I waited here. I only wanted to see Your Highness one last time."
When Shen Youhuang heard Hua Ruyu's words, she felt a bit uneasy. "Where did this come from? The day for us to meet is yet to come. Don't speak nonsense, let this king worry so much."
Hua Ruyu shook her head and said, "Your Highness, Ruyu's heart is on the line. Tomorrow is the talent show ceremony. Once Ruo Yu is chosen as the concubine, she will have to serve the emperor as his servant … "
As she spoke to here, she suddenly grasped Shen Youhuang's hand with incomparable determination. "Ruyu is extremely unwilling, so the day of her slumber is the day Ruyu takes her own life! Ruyu would rather die than to let Your Highness have her way! "
"What …" His gentle smile stiffened a bit. "Ruyu, didn't we agree that you're staying by royal father's side for this duke's future accomplishments? When this duke claims to be the emperor, I definitely won't despise you!"
Hua Ruyu was no longer listening to Shen Youhuang's solemn and sweet words.
She cried like a man in tears: "If Your Highness truly loves Ruyu, then please don't let Ruyu stay in this palace that eats people and doesn't spit their bones out, alright? Ruo Yu would rather be by your side and be your slave, than to do something that would cause two generations of emperors to be ridiculed … Your Highness, Ruo Yu, I beg of you … "Take me out of the palace …"
Shen Youhuang hadn't thought that Hua Ruyu would suddenly change her mind. He was caught unprepared and couldn't help but be enraged as he flung her hand away.
"Flower Rain!" The reason this king went through so much trouble to get you to the palace was to bury a powerful chess piece beside royal father so that I could monitor his every move. Now that the crown prince has been eliminated and is one step away from success, you still want to beat a hasty retreat for this king? "Impossible!"
When he took off the mask of deep love, Hua Ruyu's heart immediately turned cold, and she coldly smiled.
"So I am just a chess piece of His Highness?"
Shen You Huang realized that she had spoken too seriously and said, "Ruyu, don't be willful. You have to put emphasis on the bigger picture."
"I won't!" Hua Ruyu steeled her heart and straightened her back as she said, "I gave you my body back at the General's Estate. Your Highness said before that the supreme position beside you will definitely be mine! "I want you to go to Her Majesty now and ask for the imperial decree of marriage, to confer on me the title of consort!"
"You …" Shen Youhuang felt a bit guilty as she looked around in horror before pushing Hua Ruyu behind the rock. She said softly, "Can't you wait any longer?"
Hua Ruyu firmly shook her head: "No, if I wait any longer, I'll die …" I swear, after entering Prince Cheng's mansion, I'll do my best to help you deal with King Yu and Feng Ning Yan, but if you force me too much, then don't blame me for telling them that you and the Crown Prince are on the same side! You were the one who poisoned them … "
Shen Youhuang's face paled as she covered Hua Ruyu's mouth.
He did not expect that at this time, Hua Ruyu would come to strike at him. If Hua Ruyu could not stay in the palace, then someone would watch over the emperor and deal with Imperial Concubine Fu …
However, compared to the secret that Hua Ruyu knew, a position of Consort Cheng was nothing.
He weighed Hua Ruyu's strength and knew in his heart that she hated Feng Ningyan to the bones. Perhaps in the future, there would still be a place for her.
He gritted his teeth, let go of Hua Ruyu, and smiled faintly. "Alright, I'll marry you."
As he spoke, he turned around and walked out.
Hua Ruyu was finally relieved, and her heart was filled with ecstasy.
'Feng Ning Yan, even if I can't be your concubine and accept your worship, I can at least sit on equal footing with you! '
When Prince Cheng claims the throne, I want you and Shen Ling Jue to die without a burial ground!
Shen Youhuang gritted her teeth and walked towards the Blessed Blessings Palace, the hatred in her heart surging uncontrollably.
But did he have any other choice?
No.
The moment he stepped into the Palace of Blessed Blessings, he put on a respectful and humble expression and kowtowed before the Empress Dowager.
"Esteemed Empress Dowager, your grandson has a presumptuous request to ask the empress dowager's permission."
The empress dowager, Feng Ning Yan, and Shen Ling Jue were all confused by Shen You Huang's actions.
"Huang'er, get up quickly. What is the matter? You must do this great gift." The empress dowager hastily ordered people to help Shen Youhuang up.
Shen Youhuang said sadly, "Grandson …" I fell in love with a woman in a talent show...
The moment she said this, Feng Ning Yan couldn't help but secretly laugh.
It seemed like today, outside the Penglai Pavilion, her method of hitting the mountain and shaking the tiger had worked.
That woman really wasn't willing to stay by the side of the aging emperor and wait for death, so she must have forced Shen You Huang to marry her.
Seeing her smile so secretive, Shen Ling Jue couldn't help but frown, not understanding what she was laughing about.
Who was the beautiful girl that Shen Youhuang had spoken of?
When the Empress Dowager heard this, she couldn't tell if it was surprise or surprise.
"Oh? Kid, did you also make a move on the Red Luan planet? Tell me, which family's daughter has caught your eyes? "
