C77 unreserved

In the afternoon of the second day, Fu Huaiyu headed towards the palace alone. After all, this sort of thing happened, and it was better if he came knocking himself.

"Your Majesty, the Ninth Prince wishes to seek an audience."

Fu Yuheng's hand that was holding the brush paused slightly as he raised his head to look at Eunuch Chen. He was puzzled and asked, "What is he doing?" In the past few days, Sun Ning had been sick, but he was not used to it.

"This servant doesn't know."

"Let him wait a bit." Fu Yuheng frowned. His younger brother did not visit the Three Treasures Palace for no reason. Now that he had come, it was unknown what sort of tricks he had up his sleeve. After all, this was the man's child.

Fu Yuheng took care of all the official matters before going to receive Fu Huaiyu. "Why would Ninth Prince be in such a good mood to enter the palace today?" Although he didn't like him very much, he still had to act as if he was there.

"Chendi went out for a stroll this time, and before entering the manor, he had already thought of coming to pay respects to Royal Brother."

The two of them feared each other, but their faces showed no trace of it. The scene of a pair of brotherly and respectful brothers filled the imperial garden. The two of them chatted as they walked, and unexpectedly, it was extremely harmonious.

"Chendi heard that something big happened in the imperial harem recently?" But not long after, the patience of the two people was almost used up. Fu Huaiyu changed the topic and tried to bring up the matter regarding Shen Qingwan.

"Ninth brother is referring to that matter. My harem is considered a big deal."

Fu Yuheng looked at him in displeasure. It turned out that the reason why he had not entered the palace and had instead hurried back was because of his Consort Xian. Heh, what a joke.

"I heard that the Consort Xian was sent to prison." Fu Huaiyu looked into the distance, his expression calm.

"I'm afraid that Ninth Brother does not have the status to interfere in this matter!" Fu Yuheng's voice was calm and steady, implying that he should pay attention to his own identity.

"Chendi only thinks that this matter is suspicious, I am afraid that there is something that I am not clear on!"

Despite Fu Yuheng's stern expression, he still maintained his calm demeanor and calmly analyzed Shen Qingwan's case with Fu Yuheng.

"Ninth brother, this matter is not up to you to criticize." Killing intent welled up in his eyes, but it was quickly overshadowed by other emotions.

Fu Huaiyu looked at Fu Yuheng with a smile that was not a smile. He did not expect that this woman would actually be able to make him, who was neither happy nor angry, act like this.

"If royal brother is not willing to investigate the case of Consort Xian, Chendi is willing to do so on his behalf." He smiled faintly, appearing to be an elegant and graceful young master. However, his smile only appeared on his face. In his eyes, there was only a pool of cold water.

"I can see that Ninth Brother must be tired of running one step at a time, that's why he's spouting such nonsense. Someone, send Ninth Prince back to his residence." Fu Yuheng's voice was very calm, but if one were to listen carefully, one would be able to hear his anger. The hand under his sleeve formed a fist, and there were some complex emotions in his eyes.

The anger in Fu Yuheng's heart roiled, but it was not good for Fu Huaiyu to flare up. After all, it was not good for both of them to fall out now.

"If not, if royal brother does not want this concubine, why not give it to me? I am very willing to accept that." He spoke out in a provocative manner as he watched Fu Yuheng's complexion turn slightly blue.

That was his woman, where would it be the other men's turn to criticize her?

"There's no need to trouble Ninth Prince. We will take care of this matter." He glared at him with a cold expression. He felt as if the air around him was suffocating.

But Fu Huaiyu acted as if he did not feel it at all, and only waved the fan in his hand, "Since it's like that, then elder brother should take care of it, if not … "Haha!" There was a hint of ridicule on his face. His angry look had inexplicably made him in a good mood.

After Fu Yuheng sent him away, he became furious in his study room. He could smash anyone into a pulp. The servants waiting outside were all on tenterhooks, not daring to breathe.

However, his mood improved a lot after finishing the meal. When he thought back to what happened to Shen Qingwan, he did discover a lot of strange things.

Since she wanted to kill the princess, why did everyone know about her being caught red-handed? Wasn't this a bit too unreasonable? Furthermore, they had been together for quite some time, so she really didn't seem like this sort of person.

"Shen Qingwan, Shen Qingwan, just what ability do you have that even my Ninth Brother would plead for mercy on your behalf? Heh."

When he thought of Fu Huaiyu, Fu Yuheng's anger surged once again, and he smashed the teacup that had just been served onto the ground. "You really are an shameless woman, no matter who it is, you dare to seduce them." He did not think that he had fallen for Fu Huaiyu that much. After all, even though he was usually careless, he did not have any hobbies for girls.

"Aiyo, your majesty, what happened to you?" Eunuch Chen heard the noise coming from inside and hurriedly ran in. He gave the eunuchs behind him a look and told them to immediately pick up the things on the ground.

He sat down on a chair, and Eunuch Chen hurriedly brought him another cup of tea. He tidied up the messy table as he tried to console him, "Your majesty, it's better to drink a cup of tea to calm your anger. Since the dragon's body is more important, if you get angry, who would the people of Dazhuang be counting on?"

"It's really nothing." Fu Yuheng held his forehead as his brows tightly locked together. He then opened his eyes and sighed. "I don't wish for everyone to know about what happened today."

"This servant knows." Eunuch Chen called all the eunuchs on duty over and gave them a warning.

Fu Yuheng picked up the imperial report, but did not read a single word for a long time. In the end, he rubbed his glabella and said, "Chen An, drive to Shufei."

Eunuch Chen saw Fu Yuheng standing up and following closely behind him. The group of people arrived at Shufei's palace, and Fu Yuheng ordered everyone to return.

"Shufei."

At this time, Wu Ling was really leaning on the bed as a female worker. Her lotus flower embroidery was as lifelike as the embroidery ladies in the palace.

Wu Ling was startled when she heard Fu Yuheng's voice. The hatred in her eyes was quickly retracted as she forced herself to stand up and bow.

"Your majesty, please take a seat. Go serve the emperor some tea." He turned around and instructed his personal maid, as he was his concubine after all, he couldn't afford to neglect the proper etiquette.

"I'm just feeling depressed. I want to come here and listen to the zither music."

It was as if he was explaining to Wu Ling why he was here. He was too annoyed and couldn't find an answer to his question. That was why he came to her place today. He felt that her zither music could calm him down.

"Then chenqie will prepare." Wu Ling took out the zither and sat opposite Fu Yuheng. At first, she fiddled with the zither casually, but later, her fingers began to flutter about like flowing water. "Does the emperor have any worries?" He spoke blandly, as if he had seen through his thoughts.
