C57 Tender Offensive

"Although chenqie is willing to share His Majesty's worries, she is a fearless person. Although chenqie and His Majesty are sitting upright, rumors are rampant that the emperor's brilliance cannot be harmed by this. If it is because of this matter that the people criticize him, chenqie will die without any hesitation." Shen Qingwan slowly spoke up as she looked at Fu Yuheng with her firm eyes. Her voice was gentle yet firm, "May Your Majesty grant me the title of female official so that I can properly share the Emperor's burdens. Then there will be no excuses."

Fu Yuheng stood up and helped Shen Qingwan up, holding her hand as they walked towards the table. "No, how can a dignified Consort Xian be conferred the title of a female official? This is impolite. No, I don't agree."

Shen Qingwan lowered her head and reached out to grab Fu Yuheng's sleeve. "But Your Majesty, the empress dowager had already reprimanded chenqie for this last incident. Although chenqie doesn't care about this, she also doesn't want this incident to cause endless waves in the harem." She moved so coquettishly that it made people feel tender towards her.

"But it doesn't conform with the rules after all." Fu Yuheng really enjoyed Shen Qingwan's coquettish actions. He had to admit that he really liked Shen Qingwan who acted like this. However, he still hardened his heart. After all, there had never been a case of a concubine becoming a female official in all the dynasties.

Shen Qingwan felt a little wronged, and she understood Fu Yuheng's concerns. However, this way, her situation was not optimistic, and it could even be said that she was in a dangerous situation.

"Then what do you think we should do? Are we just going to put chenqie on fire like this? Ignoring the fact that the empress dowager is making things difficult for chenqie, even the empress dowager and the concubines have long treated chenqie as a thorn in their side!" Besides, the lords of the previous dynasty will not let this go. If they were to use this opportunity to suppress chenqie and father, what would the emperor do? Those who know say that chenqie is intelligent and those who don't know will only say that the emperor is despicable. Chenqie is bewitching and controlling the political affairs of the imperial court and although chenqie doesn't care about rumors, what will happen to chenqie's family? "

Fu Yuheng looked at Shen Qingwan's appearance and his heart felt as if it had been stabbed by a blunt instrument. She wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes, and looked at her aggrieved and stubborn appearance with a pained expression, "I was careless. Don't worry Consort Xian, I will give you an explanation."

"Does the emperor agree with chenqie's words?" Shen Qingwan's bright eyes stared at him, blinking and blinking. Fu Yuheng felt her heart palpitate as she watched. She could only feel her entire body heating up.

He carefully sized Shen Qingwan up. Her palm-sized face was filled with intelligence and strength. She had the gentleness of a lady, but she did not lose the heroic spirit of a general.

Her bright eyes were clear and pure, and they were full of viciousness, calculation, and vanity.

Her nose was small and straight, and she was standing straight above her red lips. Her dimples when she laughed added an untold amount of glamour.

"This emperor thinks that our beloved concubine really has the ability to stir up trouble with beauties!"

Shen Qingwan discovered that he was already blushing when he looked at her. Although she was a son of the general's house, she was still a shy little girl. She couldn't keep her face when she heard his teasing words and turned to leave.

"Where is my beloved concubine going?" Fu Yuheng held onto Shen Qingwan's hand and pulled her into her embrace with force. Looking at her flushed cheeks, she suddenly had a bad idea.

"Is my beloved concubine throwing herself into my arms? I didn't think she would like me so much. Can't wait?"

Shen Qingwan saw the smile on his face and became even more flustered. She no longer dared to look him in the eye and could only turn her face away, "Your majesty, this is the study room. Please take it seriously." Shen Qingwan's tone was slightly angry, but not tough. To Fu Yuheng, it sounded like a woman coquettishly pouting with her husband. In an instant, most of the worries brought about by the imperial court also disappeared.

"My beloved concubine is truly very interesting. Her blushing appearance is also very adorable, and it really pleases me."

Shen Qingwan broke free from his embrace and accidentally fell towards Fu Yuheng. She then fell into her arms.

"Haha." Fu Yuheng laughed out loud as he looked at the little woman in his arms.

Shen Qingwan looked at him in shame. For a moment, she too fell into a trance. There were many dragons and phoenixes within him. Fu Yuheng, who was smiling, was many times more beautiful.

"Ugh …" "Hm."

Seeing Shen Qingwan in a daze, Fu Yuheng moved closer and covered her lips, carefully feeling the taste of this little woman.

By the time Shen Qingwan realized this, it was already too late. She couldn't break free, so she could only whimper and clap Fu Yuheng continuously with her hands. He grabbed Shen Qingwan's hand with both of his hands and she no longer struggled.

"My beloved concubine, would you like to stay and drink some soup with me?" As she left Shen Qingwan's lips, her mood turned slightly better, as she looked at Shen Qingwan, whose face was so red that it reached her ears.

"No, there's no need. The emperor has decreed that chenqie will be conferred with the title of female official. Chenqie will take her leave now." Without waiting for Fu Yuheng to speak, she left the study as if he was escaping, leaving behind a sentence. "Your majesty, remember to drink the soup."

Fu Yuheng laughed out loud as he rubbed his lips while holding the bowl of soup that Shen Qingwan had brought over.

"Consort Xian's sister is so distracted, did something happen?"

On the way back from the study, Shen Qing Wan bumped into Xiao Shushen. Seeing Shen Qing Wan coming out from the study, Xiao Shushen made a decision in her heart.

"Esteemed Empress." Shen Qing Wan calmed down and paid respects to Xiao Shushen.

"The emperor wanted to drink the soup made by chenqie just now, so he sent chenqie to the study room. Now, he's not letting her go, so she's coming out."

Xiao Shushen understood in her heart, but she did not have any way to expose Shen Qing Wan, "Consort Xian's sister, it's best if we don't go to this study too often. Last time, the empress dowager also warned little sister, that although little sister was going to deliver the soup, it would be bad for the emperor and little sister, after all!"

Shen Qingwan bowed again and spoke softly, neither servile nor overbearing. "Thank you for your words, esteemed empress. Your consort will definitely bear this in mind. I won't dare to go beyond my duty and damage Your Majesty's honor."

Xiao Shushen once again revealed a smiling face, "That's good, and it's not that I'm being nosy, it's just that this is how it is in the deep palace. Little sister, you have to understand my difficulties, too, so don't resent me." Holding Shen Qingwan's hand and acting like a virtuous and virtuous person, she looked as if she was truly thinking for the emperor and Shen Qingwan.

"Chenqie thinks of the Empress's kindness and naturally doesn't dare to resent her." Shen Qingwan and Xiao Shushen exchanged pleasantries, then both of them returned to their own courtyards.

Although Xiao Shushen appeared calm on the surface, her heart was already in turmoil. Shen Qing Wan frequently going out of the study room was long against the rules and the Emperor was also indulging himself in his treatment of her.
