In the Golden Wind and Jade Dew Palace, Concubine Jade and the Emperor were drinking wine. It was the moment when they were deeply in love. Concubine Yu snuggled into the arms of the Emperor and asked, "Your Majesty, do you love me?"
Hearing this, Chu Sheng raised her face and said, "Isn't it obvious to me? I have always doted on you."
"But I don't want pampering, I want real love." She was a little dissatisfied.
"Of course, you are the woman I care about. You should be very aware of it these years."
After hearing this, Concubine Jade sat up with a sad look on her face, "The emperor should know that those few years were my most painful years, and it was General Gao who took care of my concubine for the emperor."
Chu Sheng's original good mood turned unhappy because of her words.
"Do you want to plead for him?" His tone was calm, but his eyes were a bit fierce.
Concubine Yu knew that it was very inappropriate for her to say these words at this time, but the emperor could just deal with Gao Mingyao at this time, but taking back the military power would be equivalent to cutting off his arm, and she would be farther away from her dream.
"I am not begging for mercy, but I feel that the emperor has handled the situation extremely well, but if the military power is handed over, wouldn't it chill General Gao's heart?"
Chu Sheng said nothing and waited for her to continue.
Concubine Yu thought he was not angry, so she continued, "At any rate, General Gao has been following the emperor since he was a boy. He has worked hard without any merit, and he has performed his duties faithfully over the years. Although he was framed and had an affair with someone, this matter is definitely not the case. Really, the emperor’s treatment was too severe.”
Chu Sheng raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and made a sound of confusion, then asked, "How do you know that General Gao was framed?"
"Of course I have known him for many years. I know who he is, and the emperor must be very aware of it. He has always been clean and self-sufficient, so how could he like such a lowly woman?" She explained hurriedly.
Speaking of the word bitch, Concubine Yu almost gritted her teeth.
The candlelight was not very bright, and it did not allow Concubine Yu to see the unclear half-raised eyebrow on Chu Sheng's face. She laughed, "What else do you know?"
When Concubine Yu heard the words, she felt a little cold when she heard the voice. Her heart skipped a beat. She turned around and met the Emperor's gloomy gaze. She knelt down almost instantly, "I don't know anything. I just think that General Gao doesn't know how to do it." Just do these things."
"Really? How do you know so well? I just dealt with it in the afternoon, and you received the news. Yue Concubine begged for mercy. I can understand it. Why do you think so?"
Chu Sheng's tone was still calm, but in Concubine Yu's ears, she already knew clearly that the emperor was angry.
"I... I just feel... I feel..."
"You think I shouldn't have dealt with it so seriously. Why should I issue an edict to belittle and take back military power for such a trivial matter? Do you think I'm making a big fuss out of a molehill?"
Concubine Jade was frightened after hearing this. She fell on the ground and said in a panic, "I don't dare!"
Looking at the woman kneeling on the ground, everything in her mouth tonight was Gao Mingyao. Yes, the friendship in her youth made her miss it, but now she was his woman, but she was thinking about other men. Chu Sheng felt that his majesty had been compromised. provocative.
"I love you so much that I make you forget who you are." He said lightly.
Concubine Jade was stunned, raised her head, and saw the emperor looking at her with condescending and disappointed eyes. She suddenly panicked, "Your Majesty..."
"Reflect on yourself here."
Chu Sheng stood up and left.
Concubine Jade wanted to persuade her to stay, so she quickly stood up and shouted, "Your Majesty, I am the wrong concubine."
But he didn't stop and walked out of the palace gate.
This was the first time that the emperor left his palace midway.
Concubine Jade felt lost and fell back to the ground in despair.
After leaving the palace, Chu Sheng was not in a good mood. Sitting on the sedan chair, not knowing where he was going, Huang Wanshun asked, "Your Majesty, where are you going tonight?"
He didn't know where to go. There was nothing interesting about the Queen. After all, when talking to the concubines, he couldn't talk about what was in his heart. He couldn't relieve the sorrow in his heart. He thought of Jin Xin.
"Go to Chengen Palace." He said.
Afterwards, they went to Chengen Palace again.
Jin Xin was lying down now, but she was called up to pick her up again.
Chu Sheng came in and saw that she was wearing pajamas. He immediately frowned, "Are you going to rest so early?"
"Didn't the Emperor go to the Jade Concubine Palace? Why are you here now?" Jin Xin asked with a smile.
"Don't you want me to come?" he asked.
"I hope so, but since the emperor went there and left in the middle, wouldn't it make Concubine Jade lose face?"
"In the past, I liked her cold temperament, and I found it interesting that she was enthusiastic about me occasionally. But now, her enthusiasm for me is actually for Gao Mingyao."
Jin Xin was stunned, could she hear this?
Does the emperor suspect that she has feelings for Gao Mingyao?
"What does the emperor mean by this?" Jin Xin pretended not to understand.
He looked sideways at her, "Do you dare to say that you don't know about my decree to belittle Gao Mingyao?"
Jin Xin naturally knew, but she couldn't know everything.
"I heard about it when I was having dinner."
"I have also ordered that your father's matter be handed over to Fengtian Mansion for re-examination. If this poisonous woman frames your father, she will not be spared lightly." He suddenly grabbed her hand and made a serious promise.
Jin Xin looked at his expectant eyes and knew that he was expecting her grateful thanks.
Jin Xin was slightly blessed, "I have thanked Your Majesty. If I can repay my father's innocence, then the previous grievances will not be regarded as grievances."
The answer was what he wanted, but why, he still felt that there was not much joy in Jin Xin's eyes. Did he go too far and made her sad?
"I have wronged you for what I did before. When this child is born, I will resume your position as a noble concubine. How about that?" He asked again.
"I am grateful for the emperor's love. I will definitely take good care of myself and give birth to this child safely." Jin Xin said with a smile.
Seeing that she finally showed a smile, the emperor also smiled, put his arm around her waist, and admired her beauty carefully, she was a little shy.
He bowed his head and kissed her.
Just when the atmosphere between the two was tense, a young eunuch came in to spread the news that Concubine Yu had suffered a heart attack not long after the emperor left and had fallen into a coma.
Chu Sheng opened his eyes and immediately looked worried. Then he let go of Jin Xin and asked, "How is Concubine Yu doing now?"
"The imperial doctor has passed by. Concubine Jade suddenly laughed in the palace just now, as if she was stimulated, and then fainted." The palace man replied.
When Chu Sheng heard this, he thought that he had aroused her just now, and then his heart disease relapsed. He immediately took two steps forward, and then he realized that Jin Xin was in an embarrassing situation. He turned around, feeling a little apologetic, "Jade The concubine is not in good health, I will go and take a look, and you should have a good rest."
Jin Xin nodded very considerately, "Your Majesty, please go. Concubine Yu needs your Majesty very much at the moment."
Hearing the words, he was speechless. He wanted to explain that he just went to take a look, but he felt it was not necessary. After struggling for a few times, he turned around and went out.
