It would be a blow to the other officials if they were to die like this. At this rate, the number of officials in the court would be less and less.
Moreover, Wu Ling was involved in this matter and was one of her few friends in the palace. Since this was the case, it would be easy for her to help him.
After returning from Wu Ling's side, Shen Qingwan felt helpless. There were many pitiful people in this palace. As she thought about these things, even when she was eating dinner, he only felt that it tasted like chewing wax.
Maybe it was because he was tired during the day, or maybe he was just thinking too much and only felt dizzy, so he decided to sleep earlier. Just as he blew out the candle, he heard a chuckle.
"Haha …"
Shen Qingwan's figure stopped, but she soon frowned, "What are you doing here?" There was a hint of displeasure in her words.
Even if the figure in the darkness didn't clearly see her appearance, she was still very familiar with it. It was just that she didn't know why he had come over at this time. If he wasn't careful, he might have been discovered by the guards outside …
Fu Huaiyu, on the other hand, seemed to be in a good mood. He sat down and rubbed the rim of his cup with his fingers, and unhurriedly said: "What, do you not welcome this king?" He raised his eyebrows. In the darkness, he appeared to be as calm and collected as usual. "You have to know that This King came to see you on purpose, but I didn't expect you to be so heartless." There was an indescribable sense of grievance in his voice.
Shen Qingwan opened her mouth, but didn't know what to do next.
"I wonder what's so good about your majesty that you actually made up your mind like this." As he spoke till here, the aura on Fu Huaiyu's body suddenly became much sharper, and it was unknown if it was because he was a little angry in his heart.
"Ninth Prince is cautious. The emperor is naturally good. Moreover, chenqie is the emperor's concubine, how can she have any second thoughts?" Lowering her eyes, she thought about the meaning behind his words. She didn't dare to relax in front of him in the slightest.
"Chi …" "Concubine Xian sure has a good mouth, but is his heart really as determined as he says it to be?" Fu Huaiyu mocked him slightly, but the strength in his hands continued to increase.
Shen Qingwan naturally did not deny this matter. She originally only wanted to answer his question, but as for whether she had second thoughts, she did not know, "Your Highness, could it be that you've come today to cause trouble?" A trace of impatience flashed in her eyes. This person seemed to be causing her more and more fear. For some reason, she had the feeling that he was deliberately approaching her.
Fu Yuheng was startled. It seemed as if he didn't expect that she would actually say such cold words. However, he soon realized that this was indeed her original personality. It was just that she wasn't so distant because he had saved her previously. But now, they could be considered to have broken off all decorum. "Of course not."
"The Ninth Prince is really interested in us. After we hurt father, we can still talk leisurely with him." He didn't need to think about it to know that they were talking about the border. Now that he mentioned it, thinking about her father's condition at that time, Shen Qingwan's nose turned sour and his eyes became slightly moist.
never expected this. As a member of the imperial family, he was naturally indifferent to family relationships, and furthermore, his mother was still alive, so he naturally could not experience the feeling of someone close to losing their loved one.
Shen Qingwan did not act pretentious. Her tears rolled in her eyes a few times before turning back, "Does Your Highness still have any other matters? If you have nothing to do, then go back. If you still want to ask if I want to be on the same side as you, then I can tell you that it is impossible. " Each word was sonorous, but it was as if nails had pierced into Fu Huaiyu's body.
"Ha!" That's impossible! " Fu Huaiyu stared at Shen Qing Wan for a few breaths of time, then suddenly said: "Then let's wait and see. One day, I will make you beg me to stand by my side!" That's right, once he obtains the throne, let's see how she can still be so unyielding then!
The aura of hatred spread out from her, and she looked at Shen Qingwan like a poisoned rose, full of unwillingness and hidden feelings.
That's right, he had fallen for her. He didn't know when, but he had unexpectedly fallen for this girl who didn't know what was good for her!
"Humph!" With a cold snort, his body slightly moved, turning around and flipping out of the window.
At this time, Shen Qingwan finally let out a sigh of relief. She really was a difficult character to deal with. As she thought of this, the wariness in her heart increased. This person was still able to talk to her in peace, so she had to admit that such a patient attitude was quite rare.
"Empress!" Lian Yun's voice came from outside the door, as though she was a bit worried, and recklessly pushed open the door. Seeing that Shen Qingwan was standing inside the house unharmed, she fell onto the ground.
"Lian Yun?" Seeing that, Shen Qing Wan immediately went forward to check, only to see that Lian Yun was crying: "What happened? Why are you crying? Could something have happened? " This was the little girl who had always been by her side. Even after all these years, she had never cried a few times.
"It's all my fault, I can't even guard the door." Lian Yun choked up. Originally, Fu Huaiyu had knocked her out just now, so as not to inform Fu Yuheng of his whereabouts.
When Lian Yun woke up, she found that she was actually sleeping on the floor, and there seemed to be sounds of conversation coming from the room. Immediately after, Fu Huaiyu flipped out of the window, confirming that there was someone inside. He was worried that Shen Qingwan would comfort him, hence he recklessly entered.
Shen Qingwan knew that Fu Huaiyu's arrival had worried her, so she helped her up and comforted him softly, "Aren't I still here?" As she spoke, she intentionally circled around a few times as if he was offering a treasure. When Lian Yun came in, she had already lit up the candle, so he could see him clearly.
Lian Yun wiped the tears at the corner of his eyes, but the remorse in his eyes had not disappeared.
"If there is anything wrong with the Empress, then this servant will not be able to continue living." Ye Zichen glared at Shen Qingwan with an aggrieved look in his eyes. It seemed as if he was going to kill her if anything happened to her again.
"Haha …" Seeing her expression, Shen Qingwan couldn't help but chuckle, "Silly girl, your mistress is so lucky, how could something happen so easily?" He covered the corner of his mouth and his eyes were filled with affection.
Hearing that, Lian Yun finally nodded her head, but her eyes still refused to look away from her body.
This made her feel somewhat helpless, "Sigh, whatever. I'm afraid that tonight, I'll let you continue to stand guard outside. You won't be able to rest at ease, so you should stay behind. Go rest on the bed over there." Shen Qing Wan then returned to her own bed, and as for Lian Yun, he was worried, so he did not pay much attention to etiquette, and stayed behind.
