Rebirth of the legitimate daughter: the daily life of His Majesty the Emperor’s beloved concubine

The rain outside made the cave too dark, and only the fire that crackled on the ground from time to time would bring a circle of light.

“Concubine Chen’s clothes are all wet, why don’t you come over and bake them?”

Su Ning'an looked at Sheng Heng who was sitting by the fire. He leaned slightly sideways, pursed his lips tightly and wrapped his clothes tightly without leaving a trace. Looking at the excessive rain outside, his frown never let go.

"No need, I believe the emperor will send someone to look for him soon."

Suning'an glanced at Sheng Heng, who was fidgeting with the pile of firewood with branches, with a hint of unruliness on his face. He was obviously not close to her, but he was like a dark mountain, casting a shadow in front of her that made people unable to breathe. She had no choice but to suppress the panic in her heart. Under such circumstances, standing at the entrance of the cave made her feel more comfortable.

Sheng Heng glanced at the faint and graceful figure at the entrance of the cave. Her waist was like a curl of a weak willow, and her temples were slightly messy. Her arms were wrapped around her body, but the pair of full moons were half-covered and half-exposed. It was just that it was dim here, even though he had good eyesight. , also difficult to see clearly.

However, he could clearly see the uneasiness hidden in her dying eyes, and the clothes on her body clung tightly to her body because of the rain.

Sheng Heng couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly and clenched his fists tightly.

If you go by the stories about rivers and lakes told by Mr. Storyteller, heroes saving beauties, and rainy nights in caves, there should be something wonderful!

"Mr. Shanda!" Su Ning'an frowned even more and lowered her voice, "Do you know that I am the concubine and you are the minister?"

Sheng Heng was stunned and looked at Su Ning'an in confusion, only to see her slightly pale lips moving slightly, "What do you mean by staring at me like this? Aren't you afraid of the crime of deceiving the emperor? What are you doing!"

Seeing him suddenly stand up and walk towards her, Su Ning'an couldn't help but take a step back, but was covered from head to tail by something, and she didn't know what it was. The moment it landed on her, a large amount of dust was raised, choking her and making her cough. .

"I don't know who threw it here. Although it is a coarse cloth cloak and the fabric is already bad, it is better than nothing." Sheng Heng said, pulling Suningan's sleeves and letting her sit next to the fire, " Your Majesty is a noble lady, if she is really ill, your minister’s head is not big enough for the Emperor to chop off.”

Suningan glanced at Sheng Heng uneasily and saw that he took five or six steps away. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and boldly put his coarse cloth coat on his body, revealing his face.

Sheng Heng looked at the firelight reflecting on her beautiful side face, making her eyes lively and alive. He found that he was lost in thought again, his heart suddenly sank, and he hurriedly lowered his eyes.

How long ago had he been obsessed with a woman without even realizing it?

What's more, it's not like I don't have a woman!

Sheng Heng sneered in his heart and thought, maybe it has been too long since he was angry!

Suning'an warmed himself by the fire, and the chill on his body subsided a little, "Why didn't Shanda go back just now, instead of running forward? If he had gone back, he would have joined the emperor by now."

Suningan glanced at Sheng Heng, who was keeping a distance from him, but the heat of the fire could not dissipate there.

Logically speaking, they should be warming themselves by the fire together, but her clothes were all wet and she was the emperor's concubine. In such a situation, it was better to keep some distance, so she had no choice but to aggrieve him.

"There was a pack of wolves behind us just now, and I don't know when the reinforcements will arrive. Rather than risking everything and sinking the boat, it's better to find a safe place." Sheng Heng said with a sneer, "The empress is not afraid of life and death, and wants to show her loyalty to Your Majesty. , Wei Chen didn’t live enough!”

Su Ningan's face turned cold, "What do you mean?"

"Even if Concubine Chen is bitten to death by a pack of wolves, she will still have a reputation for running towards the emperor and will be remembered by the emperor for the rest of her life. However, I have to sacrifice my life for my concubine's loyalty." Sheng Heng raised his lips playfully. , "It is not worth it to die without receiving the kindness of a beautiful woman."

"You!" Suningan clenched his hands into fists, glared at Sheng Heng angrily, and said in a cold voice: "Do you know that just those words of yours can kill you!"

Sheng Heng was not afraid at all. Instead, he stood up and took two steps forward, looking at her intently, "Is it really a good thing for the emperor to find you?"

"What do you mean?" Su Ning'an was frightened, took a step back, and stared at Sheng Heng.

"Your Majesty saw us living alone in the same room. Your Majesty and your ministers were all wet. Your Majesty is also a man. How could you not mind? Or would you believe that nothing happened between you and me?"

"You!" Su Ningan's nails dug straight into the palm of her hand. She was worried about this just now, so she tried her best to keep a distance from him.

"Whether it was the emperor who came to find him, or whether you and I went back after the rain stopped, they all aroused criticism, and might even use this matter to slander my reputation. Guess, the emperor might not mind? Will he really believe that you and I are innocent? Even if Does the Emperor really believe that those rumors can really not shake the Sacred Heart? If a minister is bribed to frame the Queen, how can the Emperor believe the Queen's excuse?"

Sheng Heng looked at Su Ning'an with a playful smile. A beauty is a beauty, and her sharp eyes are also beautiful.

"What do you mean?" Seeing the strong meaning of coercion in his words, Suning An walked around the fire without leaving a trace and slowly retreated towards the entrance of the cave.

"Instead of letting others bribe the ministers, rather than letting the empress find a support for herself, it is too risky to just place the bet on the banker."

"How dare you touch the emperor's woman?" Suningan clenched her hands into fists and dug her nails into her palms, telling herself to calm down.

"Wei Chen is just making suggestions for the empress."

Seeing her pale face and tight lips, Sheng Heng raised his lips slightly, but had no intention of going any further. That was enough for today.

Suningan held on to the cloak tightly and suddenly pulled it and threw it onto Sheng Heng.

Perhaps it was the excessive fear that made her move faster. She pulled off the loose horse rope and climbed onto the horse's back. Now she ignored her fear and ran into the rain with her riding whip.

Even though she didn't want to admit it, Sheng Heng was right. If someone really made a fuss about this matter, she wouldn't be able to defend herself.

Instead of staying with him in the cave, if you leave, you will only be exposed to the rain all night, and no one will die. It is better than the emperor's suspicion!

If she really stayed with him all night, even if she was innocent, but if someone deliberately did it, she wouldn't be able to explain it even with all her words!

What's worse is that if the emperor is really suspicious and the seeds are planted, once they take root and sprout, even if she is innocent, she will not be innocent in the eyes of the emperor. The emperor is also a man, so what if she loves her again?

What's more, she knew how possessive that person was, and she wouldn't allow anyone else to contaminate her own things!

So, she could only leave.

·······

Sheng Heng looked at Suningan, who was galloping on horseback in the rain, and couldn't help but clenched his fists.

Although the rain had subsided, it was still dark outside. At first, he didn't believe that she, a woman, would really dare to leave! Who knew she would actually do this!

However, he didn't really want to stop him. What he just said was half true and half false. If the emperor was really suspicious, he would be the first to die! The Sheng family will also suffer as a result.

Just now he was seducing her, teasing her, and testing her.

Only in this way can you know what to do next.

If Suningan was a smart person, he would never tell the emperor what he said, otherwise he would fall out of favor in a matter of minutes!

But if she is really willing, it would be best to have a beloved concubine beside the emperor to help her.

What's more, she also has the eldest prince by her side, so the possibility of ascending to that glorious position in the future is extremely high.

Sheng Heng lowered his head for a moment and thought of Suning'an's appearance just now. She was such a wonderful person, soft and fierce. He had also seen her standing quietly by the river, as quiet as a delicate hibiscus. Who wouldn't want such a woman? Who doesn't want to sleep?

Using her to decorate a man is also the icing on the cake.

It would be a great blessing to be able to hold her in the palm of my hand!

But it doesn't matter if she leaves, at least the emperor won't doubt her and pick him off completely.

However, the play still needs to be done.

Sheng Heng rushed into the rain and was about to chase in the direction of Suning'an when he heard the sound of horse hooves coming through the rain behind him.

"emperor!"

Sheng Heng hurriedly saluted, but saw Shen Yanzui getting off his horse and striding past him. His sharp eyes quickly searched around the cave, "Where is Concubine Chen?"
