C82 Persuade to leave

The matter of Shen Qingwan being brought back by Fu Yuheng quickly became a topic of heated discussion among the commoners. Everyone said that the Emperor was enchanted by the Concubine Xian, and couldn't even do anything to her, who had committed the heinous crime of killing a princess. Some people even threatened that she would be the next Bao Si Da Zi.

In the outside world, this matter had become the talk of the town, and many ministers in the imperial court had their complaints about it. There were many people in the Imperial Court who were dissatisfied with Shen Qingwan and felt that she was doted on by the Emperor. As her concubine, she was frequently in the government and the key point was that the Emperor trusted her, which made them feel threatened. Shen Qingwan's crime this time was so heinous that it would be a crime that involved nine families in the murder of her son and the rest of the imperial concubines. However, the Emperor repeatedly protected Shen Qingwan and even brought her back to the palace to recuperate.

Fu Yuheng could feel that the atmosphere in the court was not right. It was as if all the ministers were feeling angry. He knew the reason, but they could only pretend not to know. Shen Qingwan was being pointed at by thousands of people, but he still believed in her in his heart. However, as the emperor, she could only do things impartially and couldn't help but feel wronged.

At this time, the Assistant Minister of War stood up and said, "Your Majesty, this subject believes that it is extremely inappropriate for you to bring the Consort Xian back to the palace for treatment."

Fu Yuheng looked calm on the surface, but he was secretly complaining in his heart. What was to come had finally arrived. Consort Xian is severely ill, We can't possibly watch her die in prison. "

"But the Consort Xian plotted against the Princess, dying is not worth it!" Prime Minister Liu also jumped out and said.

He tried his best to suppress his anger, but his tone was slightly angry, "This is my family matter, there is no need for you all to worry." Moreover, it is still unclear whether Consort Xian has killed the princess or not. "

"The fact that the Consort Xian murdered the Princess is already a matter with solid evidence. The Emperor can't just turn black and white just because he doted on the Consort Xian."

Then, Fu Yuheng became even angrier as he stood up and pointed at the officials below him. "The princess is my own flesh and blood. If the Consort Xian really killed her, I would naturally not shield her. Could it be that your feelings for the princess are deeper than the feelings I have for her?"

"No matter what, there is still doubt in this case. Consort Xian should not return to the palace to recuperate. Please reconsider your majesty!" All the civil and military officials kneeled down and asked him to reconsider.

Fu Yuheng was so angry that his face turned ashen. "The matters of the harem are not something you should interfere in. I have my own decisions to make. There's no need to say anything else. Withdraw from the throne!" After he had finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left the court.

Even though Shen Qingwan's injuries were severe, they were only superficial wounds. In addition to Fu Yuheng sending all the doctors at the Imperial Physician Hospital to take turns checking her pulse, he also sent a few smart maids to guard her day and night. After drinking the medicine and taking careful care of her, Shen Qingwan's condition had finally recovered by more than half.

On this day, Shen Qingwan saw that the sun was shining outside and the weather was very good. After being cooped up in bed for so many days, she really wanted to go out for a walk.

However, before she could step out of the door, two armored imperial guards stopped her. "My apologies, Concubine Xian, you cannot go out."

Lian Yun was furious in her heart, and shouted: "Impudent! Our Empress has been sick for so many days, and her body is now just a little better. If you want to go out and take a breath of fresh air, you can still stop it.

The imperial guards looked troubled, but they didn't move their hands away from Shen Qingwan's body. "I'm sorry, Niang Niang. It was the emperor's order, she said you can rest in peace."

"You!" The maidservant wanted to say more, but was stopped by Shen Qingwan, "Alright, if you don't want to go out, then so be it. I won't hold back for you."

With that, he turned and left. The maidservant hurriedly followed, carefully looking at Shen Qingwan's expression, only to see her indifferent expression, without showing any signs of joy or anger.

"Ai, you, Empress, always keep everything in your heart and never show it on the surface, making it impossible for people to guess it."

Is that so? Shen Qingwan thought absentmindedly as she looked out the window. However, she always thought that since she was innocent, then no matter what, her heart was clear. But now, she knew that that wasn't the case. Looking at the imperial guards outside, he could only force a smile. What was the point of asking for favors?

She could understand Fu Yuheng. She could understand the responsibilities that he had to shoulder as the ruler of a country. She could understand the choices that he had to make. However, Fu Yuheng still did not trust her. After spending so many days and nights together, how could he not know her personality? How could he believe that she was such a wicked woman?

Forget it, she seemed to be overthinking things. So what if it was him? What did it have to do with her? Most likely, in his eyes, she was just one of the tens of thousands of women.

Shen Qingwan understood in her heart that she was supposed to be recuperating, but in reality, she was being placed under house arrest. She couldn't help but bitterly smile in her heart. Letting her lose her freedom and be trapped in such a small world was the most severe punishment she could receive.

Shen Qingwan sat in front of the window for a whole day, not even eating dinner. She was so anxious that the maidservants were circling around, she barely managed to drink a few mouthfuls of the bird's nest porridge.

He listlessly read a few pages of the book and then went to bed early.

However, Shen Qingwan did not sleep soundly that night. In her dream, Fu Yuheng had a ferocious look on his face as she pinched her neck and asked her why she wanted to kill his daughter.

Shen Qingwan woke up from her nightmare, only to realize that her head was covered in sweat. Just as she was about to heave a sigh of relief, she heard faint sounds coming from the window, and immediately after, she saw a figure jumping in through the window.

"Who?" Shen Qingwan's heart leaped to her throat. She hastily stood up and wanted to run out to get someone, but someone held her mouth in the next second.

"Shh, don't make a sound, it's me." The man in black took off his mask, revealing a pair of peach blossom eyes, as well as a face that caused people to unconsciously be moved.

"It's you?" Ninth Prince, why are you here? " Shen Qingwan widened her eyes in shock.

Fu Huaiyu looked at her with a smile. "When I heard that you were under royal brother's house arrest, I came here specifically to see you."

"Shen Qing Wan frowned, and calmly took a few steps back, maintaining a distance from him." Thank you very much for your kind intentions, but at this time and place, I think it would be best for you to stay away from me, so as to not cause unnecessary misunderstandings. "

His eyes narrowed slightly. Even in this dim light, his eyes were still frighteningly bright. "Misunderstanding?" Consort Xian is afraid of brother Huang misunderstanding, right? You really do have deep feelings for brother Huang. Unfortunately, he doesn't trust you at all, otherwise he wouldn't have placed you under house arrest. "

This sentence seemed to be aimed at Shen Qingwan's sore spot, she did not look at him, her heart was cold, but she still lowered her head and did not speak.

Seeing that she was silent, Fu Huaiyu suddenly raised his chin, with a rare serious expression on his face, "Shen Qing Wan, are you willing to follow me? I'll take you out of here. "
