C264

Qin Ruxue married himself and became the empress in the palace, as though he was suddenly enlightened, and wanted to help the emperor give birth to a dragon, to protect the Qin family's exceptional position in the Tian Sheng empire.

The emperor was also helpless towards the matter of the empress dowager forcing Qin Ruxue onto him. He knew clearly that Qin Ruxue had been in love with Chu Xiuhan for many years, but Qin Ruxue had suddenly agreed to marry into the palace and become his concubine. He was even preoccupied with thinking about giving birth to a dragon seed as soon as possible.

What a cruel and merciless woman! It was as if he just let it go, and his emotions just changed.

"Your majesty, when chenqie heard that you had been toiling for days on behalf of the nation, chenqie was extremely worried and even personally cooked a broth to help you take care of your body. Your majesty, try it.

The emperor was originally leisurely enjoying his leisure in the imperial study when Qin Ruxue suddenly barged in with seven to eight palace maids.

Qin Ruxue was dressed in a dignified and graceful attire. Ever since she entered the Imperial Palace, she had looked like a rich and noble person, as if she was a completely different person from when she was in the Qin Residence.

It was not Qin Ruxue's first time being attentive to the Emperor. The Emperor clearly understood her thoughts, but who wouldn't want to give birth to a dragon seed for him in this harem.

"Thank you for your trouble, empress." The emperor was perfunctory on the surface and a little casual on the face.

The empress dowager and the court ministers had sent who knew how many people to his harem, and he had never refused. Furthermore, the Qin family held the power of the imperial harem since the founding of the country. Prime Minister Qin had allowed Qin Ruxue to enter the palace, which was something the Emperor had never thought of.

When the empress dowager proposed to have Qin Ruxue enter the palace to accompany her, the emperor more or less understood what was going on. Naturally, he couldn't say any words of rejection.

But... The Emperor played with the Prince Zhan and Qin Ruxue until he was big. Qin Ruxue had liked the Prince Zhan in front of him for many years and then suddenly accepted Qin Ruxue as his queen.

So... Even though the emperor and Qin Ruxue had been married for a few days, the emperor had never shared a room with Qin Ruxue.

The empress dowager had helped Qin Ruxue block most of the gossip in the imperial harem. Even so, Qin Ruxue had heard quite a few criticisms.

"Your majesty, are there a lot of political affairs today?" Qin Ruxue slowly walked to the side of the emperor's table, extended her hand, and began to study the ink for the emperor.

"Indeed, there is. Prince Zhang's wedding has been going on for a long time, always calling me an excuse to show compassion towards my subjects, repeatedly refusing the government work I gave him. It really causes us to have to take care of things everyday." The emperor squinted his eyes and slowly spoke to Qin Ruxue. He looked gentle on the surface but in reality, he was secretly observing the slight changes in Qin Ruxue's expression.

Sure enough, when Qin Ruxue heard the two words "Prince Zhan", his expression suddenly froze, and his hands were moving slower by half a beat.

Immediately after, Qin Ruxue did not continue the topic just now, and did not mention whether or not he would be going to the empress palace tonight, to have her sleep with him.

The emperor squinted at Qin Ruxue who had a blank expression.

I thought you were quite skilled. The emperor's brows twitched as he thought to himself.

The emperor always felt that the palace was boring. Every single one of them were well calculated. The women of the imperial harem were bored to death, so they thought about how to climb onto the bed and give birth to a dragon.

Now that Qin Ruxue had entered the palace and become the Empress, the harem became even more unsettled. Qin Ruxue borrowed the power of the empress dowager to stir up trouble in the harem, and brazenly revealed his intentions of stabilizing his position within a short period of time.

The emperor was already displeased with Qin Ruxue, who was a mercenary woman, but the emperor was really envious of the Prince Zhan. He was envious that the Prince Zhan would win a person's heart, even the white-haired man was unwilling to leave.

Furthermore, the Emperor does not like the restrictions of the palace, so as long as the Prince Zhan cannot go to court for any reason, the Emperor will follow this logic to go to the Prince Zhan's Mansion to look for peace.

"Your Majesty, please stay put. This is the inner court of our prince and his wife. The princess is not up yet, so please let me know." Liu Hong politely stopped the emperor who was about to enter the inner courtyard. His appearance was normal, but his expression did not show any fear, nor did he try to curry favor with anyone.

The Emperor thought to himself, this Chu Xiuhan has such a personality, even the maids in his residence have such personality.

"Then do I have to go in?" The Emperor took a tentative step forward. It was just a test, and there was no real landing.

"Your Majesty, please don't embarrass this one. As the manager maid of the Duke Palaces, this one will obey the orders of the Prince Zhan and the wangfei." Liu Hong said calmly with a red heart, and even bowed to the Emperor as he spoke.

"Impudent!" Under the heavens, could it be that you are listening to the orders of the Prince Zhang? and not following my orders? " The Emperor looked down at Liu Hong coldly.

The Emperor was already depressed in the palace and came to Prince Zhan's Mansion to find some fun. Seeing that the Prince Zhan's Mansion servant had some personality, he started to play with her.

"This servant knows her wrongs, but this servant is a Prince Zhan's Mansion maid, so I should be loyal to my master. Furthermore, the wangfei treats us like family, so as servants, we should repay her with spring water. Therefore, the first ones to be loyal to this slave servant should be the prince and the princess consort. "

Liu Hong kneeled on the ground with a "putong" sound, but she did not kneel respectfully, nor could she display any signs of "begging for forgiveness", "feeling wronged", or "fawning" on his face.

The emperor narrowed his eyes. His previously furrowed brows suddenly stretched out into a beautiful line. The emperor flatly praised Liu Hong. "You really have some personality, and you're also a little pure and kind."

The Emperor did not say anything else, nor did he insist on finding Chu Xiuhan. Liu Hong didn't understand the emperor's intention. He stood up and waited for a while, but the emperor didn't come back.

It was weird, for a long time, the emperor would always visit the Prince Zhan's Mansion at the right time, every time until the princess was awake and out of the courtyard, or when the princess was in her room enjoying the two people's world, the emperor would suddenly come to the Prince Zhan's Mansion and request to find Chu Xiuhan.

Of course, Liu Hong would forcefully block them off every time.

Every time, the emperor would pretend to be angry for a bit, before scolding Liu Hong, "Impudent!"

Every time, Liu Hong would always have a straight face, looking completely businesslike as he respectfully kneeled in front of the emperor and said in official language, "Your Majesty, as a maid of the palace, this servant will naturally serve the prince's consort first."

The emperor looked at Liu Hong. He had come here more than ten times, but Liu Hong actually did not have the slightest fluctuation in his emotions. There was no fear or panic.

He really had a cold face for more than ten years.

The emperor didn't understand. Liu Hong, who was merely a maid from the Duke Palace, didn't even need to fawn on him? The emperor no longer had any patience, so he decided to just directly send her to the palace.

This Liu Hong had a very unique personality, it was very to his taste.

"Why don't you follow me into the palace, and we'll make you a imperial concubine?" The Emperor bent down, and lifted Liu Hong's chin as he knelt, and said with a smile in his eyes.

Liu Hong's expression finally loosened. Perhaps it was because he was too surprised, but after hearing the emperor's words, his eyes widened.

However, in the blink of an eye, she had regained her usual clarity. "I've sold myself to the prince's estate since I was young. It's for the wangfei to decide on my stay."

The emperor felt like he had met a tough opponent, and he was so angry that blood spurted out of his throat.
