Under Luo Mu's curtain, one could hear the melodious sound of a zither slowly sounding, causing one's mind to turn calm.
On the wall, there were some fine poems written by the literator Mo Xian, but they showed the elegance of this place. Compared to the hustle and bustle outside, this place seemed to have its own unique style.
Inside the private room, the white jade teacup was emitting some steam, which made everything in front of him hazy. The slight curve on the surface of the cup was like the blooming of a brandy, intoxicating.
"Interesting. Very interesting." Her slender fingers gently placed down the teacup in her hand. A crawling smile appeared in her enchanting peach blossom eyes. Wearing a violet robe, she appeared extremely charming.
"Prince …" One of the subordinates standing behind him respectfully cupped his hands and said, "Go." A somewhat lazy voice came from Fu Huaiyu's mouth, and after the subordinate received his orders, he quickly disappeared.
His fingertips unintentionally knocked on the top-grade rosewood tea tray. He felt that it was funny, but he didn't expect Fu Yuheng to actually punish General Shen with two years' salary. This was somewhat interesting, but so what?!
Originally, he was a noble and elegant gentleman, but now, he was an arc in Fu Huaiyu's heart and soul.
Xiao Yan played with the folding fan in his hand. His gaze passed through the window as he watched the end of the road. It was as though he had sensed the battle at the border.
Now it seemed that he had to work harder on the border issue! Fu Huaiyu had already used up a lot of time and energy, but now, he felt that the time was right, he could store the net now, and he had used up a lot of time.
Fu Huaiyu opened his fan, and the sound of the zither came from downstairs, as though it was writing a new chapter.
Now, not only did the matters at the border become troublesome, but there were also many troublesome matters in this harem.
Half of the Lovers Twin Flying Diagram was already embroidered on his hand, but Shen Lihan's hands had evidently stopped moving slightly on the golden silk threads, and was unable to move his fingers even a little. He felt a little helpless in his heart, as he was in such a state, ever since that day, he had not been able to relax a little.
In the end, she still let out a long sigh and placed the embroidery in her hands on the table. Dong Xue, who was beside her, immediately went forward and helped Consort De up.
Shen Lihan knew what she was thinking, but she didn't have a good idea. She hoped that she could calm down a little, and when she looked at the various strange flowers and herbs in the courtyard, she felt a bit bored.
"Empress, is there anything troubling you?" Beside him, Dong Xue rarely saw her like this. Normally, she carried a gentle look on her face, but now that she had something on her mind, even her delicate eyebrows were knit tightly together.
"Hey, Dong Xue, why is the butterfly Luo Hua a little withered?" Shen Lihan sighed, but her gaze still managed to discern that the dejected Rice Orchid seemed to be listless compared to the plant beside him.
"In reply to the Empress, perhaps the maidservants did not put much effort into taking care of it. Now, a new stalk of Purple Jade Orchid has been moved to the Empress's courtyard, so I was careless." Dong Xue followed her gaze and explained the doubts in her heart.
"Violetjade Orchid has grown quite well." Shen Lihan's gaze, with a hint of complexity, fell on the Purple Jade Orchid.
The two flowers in front of him had the same feeling as his fate. At the moment, he looked a bit like the butterfly falling flower. He didn't know when, but maybe it would turn out like this.
Withdrawing his gaze, the panic in his heart did not dissipate much. Now it seemed that he needed to make a trip.
"Dong Xue, give me some clothes to wear, I want to go to Honorable Liu." Shen Lihan said to Dong Xue. In the past few days, she had become a frequent guest of Liu Chugrong, and the two chatted quite well, but occasionally she would probe Dong Xue a bit. After all, the old saying was correct, and one had to be wary of others.
Even though he still maintained a kind smile on his face towards Consort De, his attitude was even more complacent and haughty than before. Consort De might not be happy, but right now, it was the turn of events and he was completely blind to it.
After Shen Lihan walked out from Honorable Liu's place, the unease in her heart subsided a little, but she could not do anything about it. With her current state, if there were people who were suspicious and wary of him, it would be difficult to handle it, but when she thought about the maids from that day, it was hard to not reveal her secret, so it would be troublesome for them to overhear him. In the imperial harem, there were too many wronged dead spirits, and she needed to be careful of everything.
"Did the person keeping an eye on that servant girl discover anything unusual?" Seeing that there was no one around, Shen Lihan asked Dong Xue who was beside him.
"In reply to the Empress, for the time being no." Dong Xue replied respectfully.
"Continue to have people keep an eye on them. If anything happens, immediately notify me." After confirming once more, the uneasiness in his heart subsided a little.
"Yes, Empress." In these few days, there were many concubines that had come to look for Liu Chugrong. Now that she was favored by the emperor, and the emperor had even started to thoroughly investigate the matter for her, it could be seen that the current Liu Chugrong was different from the past, so he absolutely could not be discovered. Although it was already considered as a beautiful plan, but they were all worried, since no one could guarantee that they would not be able to rest peacefully.
On the other hand, Shen Lihan paced herself a little, and thought that this matter was not a solution. Previously, she had to thank Shen Qingwan for reminding him, but now, she couldn't think of a good solution at the moment. She could only go look for Shen Qingwan and discuss this with her, maybe there would be a solution.
After making up his mind, he turned around and walked in another direction.
"Empress, did you forget to take anything? "How about this servant …" Dong Xue saw his own mistress change her direction, and thought that something had landed at Honorable Liu's place, and asked.
"No, let's go." Consort De waved her hand, whether or not she should go to Honorable Liu's palace or not, instead, he should head towards Shen Qingwan's palace.
Now, he hoped that Shen Qingwan would have some good methods to deal with it.
Shen Lihan was at a loss of what to do, but she did not panic to the point that she was in a mess.
Perhaps it was because he was too anxious, but even though his pace was a lot faster, he still walked forward with his makeup intact.
