After everyone had left, only Shen Qingwan remained at Jin Rong Palace to pacify the carrageenan.

"Ruo Tong." Shen Qingwan lightly called out, "This result is not bad. Ye Feng is alive, but you are too, aren't you?"

Qiu Shui fell to the ground and kowtowed repeatedly. "Esteemed Empress, Qiu Shui has let Esteemed Empress down. Your servant was only …"

Shen Qingwan thought for a while, and then said with a heavy tone: "I know what you are thinking, but if you die, what about Ye Feng? So for him, you have to live well. "

carrageenan squinted, but his heart felt heavy.

"Empress …" Shen Qingwan was stunned for a moment. "I was only betting on something and let Lian Yun find a way to pass on the message. But if the empress doesn't come, then I have other ways to deal with it. I won't let you die like this. "

"Elder sister, I'm sorry." carrageenan lowered her head and said in grief, "In the end, I was still careless. I already knew that the empress wasn't a good person, but because I wanted you to work with her, I …"

"It doesn't matter. Just do it, as long as it isn't anything harmful."

"Elder sister, my only warning is that you don't have to do anything to the emperor." carrageenan suddenly said, "Don't ask why, you just need to remember."

After a long while, Shen Qingwan finally poked carrageenan's forehead, her lips curled up into a faint smile, "Ruo Tong, although I don't have anyone I love, I don't like this harem either. So, you don't have to worry. "

"Sis …" carrageenan was still a little worried, but Shen Qingwan said, "Qiu Shui, take good care of your master, I have things to do first."

"Sis, take care." Watching Shen Qing Wan's leaving figure, carrageenan couldn't help but to show some respect. This girl was different from the others after all.

Shen Qingwan left the Magnificent Brocade Palace and headed straight for the Kunning Palace.

As she had expected, the Empress was sitting in the main hall, waiting for her.

She walked over slowly. Hearing the sound of the door closing behind her, she walked even more calmly.

"Chenqie pays respects to the empress. The empress has lived for thousands of years." She knelt down, kowtowed, and bowed, to thank her for her help.

The Queen didn't speak, Shen Qingwan just knelt like that.

After half an incense's time, the Empress put down the teacup in her hand and leisurely said, "Consort Xian, you have finally come. I have been waiting for you for a long time."

"Pa!"

Just as the teacup fell to the ground, the ground in front of Shen Qingwan was littered with broken cups.

Shen Qingwan's face did not have a single ripple, but she lowered her head.

"Consort Xian, how dare you! If the Emperor had any doubts, I'm afraid even you and I would have our heads on the ground! "

Shen Qing Wan suddenly raised her head, her eyes moved slightly.

When Xiao Shushen saw her calm appearance, and how calm she looked, she couldn't help but be surprised. Even the scene just now had caused her to be as calm as water.

"Does the Empress want to punish him?" Shen Qingwan pursed her lips.

For the first time, there was something in her voice.

With just a few words, Xiao Shushen had raised her guard even further. She was almost certain that this woman in front of her was not simple!

"Why did you come to find me? Do you know that if I don't want to help you, or even go to the emperor to expose you, I'll kill two birds with one stone even if I get rid of one person who is a threat to me?" Xiao Shushen stood up and slowly walked to the front of Shen Qingwan.

Shen Qingwan raised her head and spoke word by word, "Because I am very important to the Empress, am I not? Moreover, there is no marriage between the Emperor and I. The Emperor only cared about me for the sake of my father. And you, esteemed empress, without the protection of your family, although you are the master of a harem, it is hard to make a move. "Only if I join esteemed Empress' side and have the protection of the Shen family will esteemed empress feel better."

Xiao Shushen frowned, she lowered her eyes and looked down at Shen Qing Wan, "Shen Qing Wan, you're right. However, if the imperial concubine consort's sin of fornication is too big, the emperor would not allow such a thing to happen, how can you be sure?"

With that, Shen Qingwan became a little angry. She calmly replied, "The Empress knows that the carrageenan is an orphan. The Emperor doted on her to suppress the various powers in the harem. Empress can't be clearer than me about who the Emperor is. I can only say that the carrageenan still has value. So he went with the flow and gave the Empress a way out. "

Xiao Shushen suddenly laughed.

"I didn't expect that a girl who had only been in the palace for a month could see things even more clearly than someone who had accompanied the Emperor for so many years."

"Don't tell me that you saved carrageenan only because she helped you out a few times before?"

Shen Qing Wan suddenly raised her head and said earnestly: "Your Highness has guessed right, I, Shen Qing Wan, am a person who returns the favor with a drop of water. It's precisely because the empress has her eyes on chenqie that she helped me, isn't it? "

"You're sensible!" Xiao Shushen said coldly, "However, you better not play any tricks on me!"

Shen Qingwan kowtowed, "Chenqie doesn't dare."

By the time he returned to the Changle Palace, it was already evening and the sky was very dark.

She kept her head down, thinking about what had happened today. Shen Qingwan thought that if anything went wrong with one step, she would probably die a graveless death.

Lifting his head once more, he found that the chamber was brightly lit.

When he thought of Fu Yuheng's meaningful gaze when he left the Magnificent Brocade Palace today, he suddenly understood and calmly walked towards the house.

"Chenqie greets your majesty."
