After Prince Guo was reborn, Zhen Huan became invincible

Chapter 187 The Emperor's Confession to Yu Rao Failed

The emperor watched their interaction, his expression growing increasingly gloomy.

He turned to look at Zhen Huan and asked stiffly, "Huan Huan, do you think those two people are Yu Rao and Shen Beile?"

Zhen Huan stood up, looked in the direction the emperor pointed, and said in a puzzled manner: "It is indeed Yu Rao and Shen Beile."

The emperor said angrily: "Do you know when they started to be so close?"

Zhen Huan pretended to be surprised: "I don't know, maybe my sister and Shen Beile get along well, she often plays alone in the Imperial Garden these days."

The emperor's voice was cold: "Get along? Did you do that on purpose for me to see?"

Zhen Huan said calmly, "There's no need to do it on purpose. This kind of thing happens every day. With such deep feelings, Si Lang and Huan Huan are both experienced people. Why not help them?"

"Noble Concubine Xi, you are so smart, you should be able to see my feelings for Yu Rao." The emperor was angry, and at this moment he did not call her Huan Huan, but called her Noble Concubine Xi instead.

Zhen Huan knew that the emperor was angry, but she still said calmly: "Your Majesty is a hundred times smarter than me, how could you not know that the prince of Xiang has intentions and the goddess has no dreams."

The emperor said impatiently: "I have my own way."

"Even if His Majesty has a solution, he has to ask Yu Rao's opinion. Otherwise, what's the point of forcing it?" Seeing that the emperor did not reply, Zhen Huan continued, "Shen Beile is your brother..."

Before Zhen Huan finished speaking, the Emperor could no longer bear to listen and left in a huff, leaving Zhen Huan alone in the octagonal pavilion.

Liuzhu looked at Zhen Huan with some concern: "My Lady, will the Emperor punish you?"

"It's okay..." Zhen Huan said indifferently.

At this moment, Beile Shen knew very well that he and Yu Rao had been seen standing together by the Emperor and Zhen Huan, but Yu Rao was unaware of it.

Shen Beile expressed his feelings to Yu Rao, who said with some concern: "The emperor does not approve of me being with you. If my brother does not allow me to be with you, I will keep begging him. If he does not agree, I will be like my seventeenth brother and never marry."

Yu Rao was very touched, but also full of worries. Her heart was naturally with Shen Beile, but...

Shen Beile knew what Yu Rao was worried about, but he still said firmly: "In short, I will never let you down, and I will never marry anyone else."

Yu Rao didn't know how to respond to Shen Beile, so she just looked down at the ground.

"I know that everything is still unsettled and you always have a lot of concerns, so I can only answer you with one sentence: Don't worry."

Yu Rao raised her eyes and looked at Shen Beile. She felt a little comforted. She smiled and said, "I know."

Yongshou Palace

It was almost time for lunch, and Beile Shen reluctantly sent Yu Rao back to Yongshou Palace.

Yu Rao trotted into the palace, came to Zhen Huan's side, and called out in a sweet voice, "Eldest sister."

She sat next to Zhen Huan, who lovingly took out an embroidered handkerchief and wiped the sweat off Yu Rao's forehead while saying, "Look at you, you don't even know how to wipe the sweat off your face. You're becoming more and more like a child."

Yu Rao giggled, and seeing that Zhen Huan cared about her, she felt warm in her heart.

Zhen Huan asked with concern: "Are you happy to see Prince Shen today?"

Yu Rao's face was filled with smiles, and she said shyly, "I'm happy. I'm happy to see him and talk to him." After saying that, Yu Rao lowered her head embarrassedly.

When Zhen Huan heard Yu Rao's words, she realized that she really liked Beile Shen.

She smiled and said to Yu Rao, "As long as you are happy, I hope you will always be so happy." Her tone was full of doting.

Yu Rao leaned her head on Zhen Huan's shoulder coquettishly and called out in a delicate voice, "Elder sister."

"As long as you are happy, I am willing to do anything for you." Zhen Huan said while stroking Yu Rao's hair.

Zhen Huan was thinking about how to get the Emperor to help Yu Rao and Shen Beile get together.

The next day

The emperor could not suppress his inner impulse and stepped into Yongshou Palace again, just to see Yu Rao.

When he arrived at Yongshou Palace, he heard the palace maid say that Yu Rao was playing the guqin in the qin room, and he couldn't help but feel a little happy. So he walked quickly towards the qin room.

Before I stepped into the piano room again, I could hear the beautiful piano music from afar.

After entering the piano room, the emperor saw Yu Rao playing the guqin with great concentration. The sound of the guqin was gentle and melodious, like a stream of clear spring flowing by, which made people intoxicated.

Her fingers brushed lightly across the strings, each note full of emotion and power.

The emperor stood quietly by, enjoying Yu Rao's performance, his eyes full of tenderness and love.

As the sound of the piano gradually faded, Yu Rao stopped what she was doing and turned to look at the person who came. It was the emperor.

Yu Rao immediately stood up, walked towards the emperor, saluted respectfully and said: "Your Majesty, may you be well!"

The emperor sat upright on the couch and said to Yu Rao, "Get up!"

The Emperor said to Yu Rao, "You played Qi'ao. Does Yu Rao already have a gentleman you love?"

Yu Rao smiled and lowered her head, a hint of shyness on her face.

The emperor continued, "You know that I am a gentleman and I like Yu Rao very much when she plays the zither."

Yu Rao immediately replied: "Your Majesty likes me because of my sister? It is said that Yu Rao looks like my sister."

"You are like her, but not like her." The emperor said to Yu Rao.

"You have become more fearless and heroic. In terms of appearance, you actually look a lot like my wife."

Yu Rao had heard Zhen Huan tell her that she looked too much like the late Queen Chun Yuan, which was why the Emperor wanted to take her as a concubine.

But at this moment, Yu Rao pretended to be ignorant and thought that the wife the emperor was talking about was the current queen Yi Xiu. Yu Rao said with a puzzled look on her face: "Really? I don't seem to be similar to the queen."

The emperor explained: "She is the queen, not my wife. My wife passed away a long time ago."

Yu Rao understood what the emperor said, "I understand. Your Majesty can have many queens, but only one wife."

"You are very smart." The emperor admired Yu Rao very much and understood immediately. Chun Yuan's position as his wife in his heart would never change.

Yu Rao asked back: "What about my sister?"

The emperor said seriously: "Your sister is the most important woman around me."

"You've asked me so many questions, but do you also want to be my woman?"

Yu Rao smiled and said, "I envy the emperor's wife."

The emperor was puzzled: "Why?"

Yu Rao explained: "Although the emperor's wife died young, the emperor only recognized her as his wife in his heart and thought about her often."

"The emperor said he likes Yu Rao, right?"

The emperor admitted, "Yes."

"I have had a wish since I was a child, which is to become the wife of the man I love, not a concubine, not the most important woman, but the only and most beloved wife. It's a pity that the emperor already has his own wife and cannot satisfy my wish, so I hope that one day I can realize my wish, instead of always envying the emperor's wife."

"I told you that you are very smart, and a lot like your sister."
