Hearing what he said, Su Yunxuan was so shocked that she stopped pounding immediately and turned her head to look towards the imperial study in panic.

Su Changfeng was indeed standing not far outside the imperial study, looking at them intently.

Just as she was about to shout, Su Changfeng suddenly turned around and looked towards the imperial study, then took a few steps back. Then, the eunuch who had been guarding the door before came out of the imperial study, supporting the emperor.

Upon seeing this, Feng Yuqi quickly let go of Su Yunxuan and raised his hand to quickly close the cloth covering her eyes.

Her wrist was loosened. Su Yunxuan tilted her head and saw Feng Yuqi pretending to be blind again and kneeling straight on the ground again.

Su Yunxuan: “…” After a moment of disbelief, she turned and ran towards Su Changfeng.

Standing next to Su Changfeng, watching the emperor leave, she asked in confusion: "Will the emperor not see me alone?"

Su Changfeng grabbed her wrist, quickly glanced at Feng Yuqi who was kneeling at the foot of the wall, and said solemnly in a low voice: "I'll tell you later."

The two stood there, quietly watching the emperor's back as he left.

The emperor clenched his fist with one hand and grasped the arm of the eunuch beside him with the other, as if the weight of his entire body was poured on the eunuch, and watched the two of them walk with great difficulty.

When they reached the Chuihua Gate, the emperor suddenly stopped. After a moment, he let go of the eunuch, straightened his back and slowly turned around. After scanning the courtyard, his eyes fixed on Feng Yuqi and he said sternly, "Kneel there and don't go anywhere."

Only after the emperor's back completely disappeared from their sight did Su Changfeng silently pull Su Yunxuan out.

After leaving the garden in front of the imperial study, Su Changfeng let go of her hand and stood there, staring at Su Yunxuan without saying a word.

Su Yunxuan was puzzled and spoke first: "Brother Changfeng, what's going on?"

Su Changfeng didn't reply, but asked: "What's going on between you and Feng Yuqi?"

A hint of anger gradually appeared on his face. Su Yunxuan choked with guilt and shook her head, "It's not what you see. He doesn't know today..."

"I gave you a weapon for self-defense. If you really don't want to, you can resist." Su Changfeng interrupted, his voice becoming more and more hoarse.

Su Yunxuan was stunned.

How could she forget?

After a moment, she changed her mind and shook her head subconsciously.

Even if she remembered that she had those guys, it seemed that she would not attack Feng Yuqi. Although he bullied her many times, they were not enemies.

"What? You can't bear to attack him?" Su Changfeng took a step back.

Su Yunxuan nodded honestly. When she saw Su Changfeng suddenly turned his back, she realized that it was inappropriate for her to nod, so she pulled him back and explained, "It's not that I can't bear to do it. I just don't think it's necessary to do it to that extent."

"How far do you want him to go before you take action against him?" Su Changfeng asked back, shaking off his hand.

When Pei Qianluo was ordered to come over and call for help, he happened to see this scene and immediately stopped from a distance away.

Su Changfeng turned around, looked up and saw her, hid the disappointment on his face, strode over and asked: "But is the Queen Mother's banquet about to begin?"

Pei Qianluo looked at him and nodded, then glanced at Su Yunxuan who was standing there in a daze, and raised his hand to guide him: "I'll lead you there."

"Thank you." Su Changfeng replied softly and walked forward.

"Princess Yunxuan, you come in." Pei Qianluo shouted to Su Yunxuan, then turned around and followed Su Changfeng.

Su Changfeng took a few quick steps and saw Pei Qianluo walking beside him. He slowed down his pace and listened attentively to the footsteps behind him.

After listening for a while and confirming that Su Yunxuan was following behind him, he felt relieved, but he forced himself not to look back and walked straight forward in a very bad mood.

Over there, the eunuch helped the emperor walk for a while but finally could not hold on any longer. He hastily placed the emperor in an empty pavilion and ran hurriedly to fetch a sedan chair.

The sedan chair stopped at Concubine Shen's Qingyun Palace. The eunuch winked at Concubine Shen who was kneeling in front of the sedan chair, then leaned over and led everyone out.

Concubine Shen stood up and hastily opened the curtain. The emperor was crouching in the sedan chair, trembling like a dead leaf in the wind.

Seeing this, Concubine Shen felt a pain in her heart. She went forward to help him and shouted at Aunt Xu, the only one left in the room, asking, "Why did you have another attack so soon?"

The nanny took a step back and knelt down, staring at the emperor's red eyes and said in panic: "It must be that the emperor did not listen to advice and got angry again, or he got emotional again, which triggered the effect of the medicine in his body to take effect prematurely."

"Go get the medicine quickly." Concubine Shen shouted again.

Helping the emperor lie down on the bed, Concubine Shen took the medicine handed to her by Nanny Xu, waved her hand for her to leave, then poured a glass of water and carefully helped the emperor take the pill.

After swallowing it, the emperor lay down with his eyes closed for a stick of incense. When he opened his eyes again, the terrifying red color in his eyes had faded and his body was no longer shaking like before.

"Feeling better?" Concubine Shen sat on the edge of the bed, stared at him and asked softly.

The Emperor turned his eyes upon hearing the voice, but suddenly raised his hand and threw the cup away from Concubine Shen's hand. He sat up and glared at her, asking, "Why is the medicine you gave me becoming less and less effective?"

Concubine Shen knelt down, lowered her eyes and said nothing.

The emperor stared at her and asked loudly, "Why don't you speak?"

Concubine Shen suddenly raised her head and looked at him, "Your Majesty, what does this concubine want to hear?"

The emperor was so angry that he pointed at Concubine Shen. He just said the word "you" when he suddenly felt a pain in his heart. He leaned over and grabbed his chest and beat it.

Concubine Shen hurriedly got up and went to refill the water, while she said with concern: "How many times have I told you not to get angry, not to get angry."

The emperor drank the water and felt better. He spoke again in a softer tone, "You have been under house arrest for a few days. The Queen Mother is holding a banquet in the Imperial Garden to welcome Prince Yunsheng and the Princess. You should go and relax."

"No, I'll stay here with you." Concubine Shen put down the teacup and walked to sit next to the emperor.

Seeing that the emperor did not refuse, she gently stroked his back and asked tentatively: "Does the emperor really want to agree to Feng Lan and Yun Sheng to negotiate peace again?"

The emperor suddenly opened his eyes again, glared at Concubine Shen and said, "If De Ze really colluded with Zhao Xia's old subordinates, don't blame me for breaking our agreement and taking ruthless action against him."

Concubine Shen paused, stared at the emperor, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, don't forget, we agreed that there must be evidence for everything."

"You also know that there must be evidence. You asked those people to demote Feng Yuqi and beat De Ze. Do you have any evidence?" The emperor asked unhappily.

Concubine Shen stood up, stood one step away, stared at the emperor with dissatisfaction and said: "It was the emperor who broke the agreement first. You agreed to let them compete fairly, but you secretly helped Yu Fengyuqi..."

"Weren't you the ones who attacked Hao'er first?" the emperor roared.

Concubine Shen took another step back and said with a gloomy face, "Do you have any evidence?"
