C55 Submission to the Consort of Germany

Shen Qing Wan sat by the window, holding onto a book, "What's wrong, Lian Yun?" At this time, Lian Yun recklessly barged in and raised her eyes.

"Esteemed Empress, I heard that the emperor is staying behind to take care of the empress due to the cold." Lian Yun was a little angry.

With her lily-white hands, she gently tucked the scattered hair behind her ears, not showing much emotion. "Oh, I understand."

Seeing that she did not seem to care about Lian Yun, Lian Yun opened her mouth to say something, but in the end, when she thought about his mistress' personality, she decided to not speak. If even her mistress wasn't in a hurry, what was she in a hurry for?

Lian Yun sighed. Sooner or later, she would worry and become an old woman.

"Empress, aren't you angry? Isn't it just a cold? "What's the big deal, we just have to pester the emperor." Lian Yun muttered softly.

This was too coquettish, even His Majesty was held back by her.

Shen Qing Wan put down the book and looked at Lian Yun with a funny expression. This little girl knew how to worry, but she didn't feel that it was unacceptable.

"Lian Yun, how many times have I told you this? This is the Imperial Palace, and it's not like when I was at home before.

What he said was true. Since ancient times, the Heartless Emperor's family had lived in a place like this! Shen Qingwan knew that she had told her the same thing several times, but she just couldn't bear to listen to it.

Lian Yun was shocked, then kneeled down in fear and trepidation, "Please punish me, Lian Yun knows your wrongs!" She was becoming more and more impudent before the Empress, and had actually forgotten her identity. If there was someone who wanted to make a fuss about it, wouldn't that bring the Empress a great deal of trouble?

Shen Qingwan did not let Lian Yun stand up immediately. It would be good if she could kneel for a while, it was a long memory.

After a long while, Shen Qingwan had pretty much finished reading the first book, and estimated that about an hour had passed before she opened her mouth, "Get up! "Don't be so straightforward in the future. After all, the price is too big, and is not something that you and I can afford to pay."

At the moment, she was only giving Lian Yun a warning. She was her most loyal servant, so it was obvious that she didn't want anything to happen to him.

After Lian Yun stood up, she did not dare say anymore and could only stand quietly to the side.

"Since you know your wrongs, then let's go down! "Calm down and think about how to talk and act. For the time being, I don't need to come over. I'll be by myself for a while."

"Yes, Empress. Lian Yun said her leave. After Lian Yun left, the empty house became even more deserted.

Shen Qingwan rubbed her forehead, seemingly a little tired, but at the same time a little disappointed. Was this feeling of loss because of Fu Yuheng? She didn't know, but she shook her head in amusement. Perhaps she was too tired from reading.

Shen Qingwan continued her self-hypnosis. She took off her shoes and slowly climbed onto the bed. She was really tired. It would be better for her to rest early. Tomorrow, she still had to pay respects to the empress.

To Shen Qingwan, this was the most boring and time-wasting matter. It was nothing more than a comparison between a group of women.

Shen Qingwan had always been too lazy to care about these matters. She didn't care who the Emperor wanted to touch or spoil, nor did she care. Her breathing was shallow, but it was still especially abrupt in this cold room.

Without a dream, Shen Qing Wan slept extremely well. Of course she woke up early, Lian Yun was already waiting outside the door with water in his hands.

"Lian Yun, come in!" Under Lian Yun's care, she put on her clothes and took the handkerchief from Lian Yun's hands to wipe her face.

"Empress, rinse your mouth."

When he finished washing up, it was already late in the morning. He knocked on the door, his head still a little dazed, but it was with Lian Yun's support that he went to pay respects to the empress.

The others had all arrived early, so Shen Qingwan naturally became the last one. When the other concubines saw her, they all turned their heads to the side as if she were a ferocious beast, but she did not move. It was just a pair of eyes, she could not lose anything.

The empress didn't come, which was something she'd expected. After all, she'd been sick the previous day and the emperor was staying here as well.

"Do you think the empress is really sick?" The person who opened his mouth took a sip of tea and asked, "Why is he not here today?"

"Perhaps. I heard that the Emperor took care of Liu here yesterday." On the faces of those who were listening, there was a bit of anger and a bit of jealousy.

Seeing that no one agreed with her words, the woman who spoke first also lost her interest in gossiping. It was unknown what she was thinking as she looked at the teacup.

Shen Qingwan continued eating her pastries, ignoring the chattering of these people.

In any case, what they said was nonsense and it didn't matter whether she listened or not. Since she had the time, she might as well eat more. She hadn't eaten dinner last night, so she was really a bit hungry this morning.

Chattering could be heard from every corner. Although they were speaking very softly, Shen Qingwan could still hear them. The topic of conversation was still the Empress and the emperor.

Just when everyone was about to lose their patience, the Gui mama that went to request for orders returned. She seemed to be in a hurry to leave as she panted slightly. The empress had caught the cold and was unsuitable to come out. She was also afraid of passing her anger on to the empress dowager, so there's no need to pay respects today.

Gui mama bowed and saluted. Everyone laughed. It would be boring to stay here, so they left one by one. It was a good thing they didn't have to pay respects to the empress anyway, lest they panic at the sight of the empress's face.

Since everyone had left, Shen Qingwan no longer had any intention of staying. She called out to Lian Yun and prepared to leave as well.

"Consort Xian's sister, please wait."

Just as she turned around, she touched Consort De. Big Sister Consort De. " Out of politeness, she greeted him.

"Since we've met, let's go together!" Consort De was too enthusiastic today, causing her to feel a little uncomfortable. However, she could only smile and followed behind Consort De.

Consort De calculated in her heart. Although there was a smile on her face and her heart was already in turmoil, the empress had already snared the emperor tightly with a chill, but the Emperor had ignored her when she was sick and bedridden. She naturally felt that it was unfair and wanted to recruit a few helpers.

"His Majesty has been treating me more and more coldly lately. My heart is in so much pain!"

Before they had even taken a few steps, Consort De spoke up with a sorrowful expression.

Shen Qingwan didn't answer, but quietly waited for her to continue.

"Recently, the Empress has been going too far and has completely ignored all of my requests. I entered the palace earlier than most imperial concubines, but now, I've gone too far."

Shen Qingwan handed over a handkerchief, but did not feel much sympathy for her.

"Is my sister willing to help me?" She suddenly raised her head and looked at her with expectation in her eyes.

Shen Qingwan felt a headache. She didn't know why, but she couldn't help but agree.
