Here, Empress Cheng went straight into Chengqian Palace. She said in a deep voice, "I want to talk to His Majesty alone. Chief Steward Cao, please step aside!"

Cao was in a dilemma. Suddenly, the emperor said, "I am hungry. Go get me something to eat."

Manager Cao responded repeatedly.

The Queen walked up to the Emperor and knelt down without saying a word. "I did not design what happened in Su Qingqing's palace. I disdain to use such dirty means to harm a woman's innocence, because I have suffered deeply from it and know what it feels like to be framed for having an affair. I have lived a miserable life these years."

The emperor's cold eyes pierced her, "You mean I have treated you badly over the years? You have achieved a position that every woman in the world wants, and you are still not satisfied."

"I dare not blame Your Majesty for mistreating me. I am already the Queen, how dare I not be satisfied? Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, the backbone of the people of the world. Your Majesty is busy with state affairs and is concerned about the country and the people.

I am the mother of the country and should have the bearing of a mother of the country. Even if Su Qingqing provokes me several times, I will always remember my identity and must not lose my manners. "Empress Cheng was almost angry, and every word clearly hit the emperor's heart.

"You still know not to lose your manners." The emperor shouted angrily, "The queen is the first to cause trouble, and everyone in the harem knows it. This is the harem you manage, and look at yourself today. How do you behave like a queen at all?" He directly suspected that the queen was the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Your Majesty, it is Su Qingqing herself who has a flawed character. Even if someone ran into her palace and stripped off her clothes in order to molest her, there were so many people in Luanfeng Palace. Didn't she know to call for help? Couldn't she resist?"

Empress Cheng was also vehement and unyielding. "The Imperial Guards have arrived at the palace gate, and she is still protecting that man. Is he threatening her with a knife at her neck? If she is a chaste and heroic woman, she should have committed suicide.

What is the truth behind this matter? Why didn't Your Majesty ask the servants of Luanfeng Palace for clarification instead of killing them all in such a hurry?"

"Now everyone in the palace is in a panic, talking about what the truth is and who is the culprit. Does Su Qingqing really have no responsibility at all? She has been the only favorite in the harem for many years, and she is still not satisfied..."

"So the Queen is taking revenge on her now." The Emperor asked coldly.

The Queen burst into tears, "I didn't. I, Cheng Langjin, can't use the inferior methods that Su Qingqing used."

The emperor felt a splitting headache and sneered, "Didn't the queen also want to find a wild man to borrow sperm from back then..."

The words spoken by the emperor made the queen blush and speechless. Her heart went cold. "Your Majesty, Shang'er is really your child. I am innocent and have only had one man in my life. Whether your Majesty believes me or not, I have never done anything to let your Majesty down."

She was also unable to conceive at that time, and she listened to the bad advice of the palace maid, so she came up with the idea of ​​using her cousin to get pregnant to consolidate her position, but in the end she did not do so.

She had been married for many years but had not gotten pregnant. She was afraid that it was her fault that she could not conceive, so she found a palace maid to use as a surrogate mother. She just wanted the palace maid to secretly climb onto the dragon bed and get pregnant, but the palace maid got pregnant but had inappropriate thoughts, and in the end the child did not survive, resulting in two deaths.

Cheng Langjin didn't know that she was pregnant, and she had also lost the emperor's favor.

The emperor still holds a grudge against her because it is all her fault. Empress Cheng just feels sorry for her son and for causing him to be suspected and disliked by the emperor. She shouldn't have such dirty thoughts.

Emperor Cheng regretted not doing that...

-

In the silent rainy night, Xie Shang walked forward in the rain. He was in a heavy mood, and the rain slid down his face. His eyes were as cold and deep as a leopard roaring at night, as if he wanted to eat people, making people afraid to approach.

They did not stay in the palace tonight, but went out of the palace in the rain. Jiang Fenghua and Su Tingwan sat steadily in the carriage. No matter how Su Tingwan shouted at Xie Shang to get in the car, he turned a deaf ear to her.

Because of what happened tonight, Su Tingwan was worried and didn't dare to provoke Xie Shang. She was scared when she saw what happened to her aunt. She didn't know why Xie Shang suddenly behaved like this.

After leaving the palace, Xie Shang ordered the coachman to take the two of them back home. It was Jiang Fenghua who insisted that the coachman follow him. Since they couldn't get a carriage, they just followed him silently.

The Emperor suspected that the Empress was responsible for what happened tonight, so he took his anger out on Xie Shang. Jiang Fenghua guessed that Xie Shang might be upset because he didn't have the Emperor's trust.

She didn't expect that Xie Shang, a grown man, would be so sad because he didn't have his father's trust. He had always wanted to get the emperor's approval.

That’s right, Xie Shang was very sad at this moment, she could see it.

Jiang Fenghua saw that the heavy rain was not stopping, and he was afraid that something serious would happen to Xie Shang if he continued to get wet like this.

Although she knew that Xie Shang would not die because of this, what she wanted to do was not yet completed, and she did not want a husband who would be sick in the future.

Suddenly, Jiang Fenghua stopped the carriage, took an umbrella and jumped down.

Su Tingwan was stunned when she saw her walking as fast as the wind. She remembered that Jiang Fenghua was always weak and unable to take care of herself every time she got off the car.

Has she been pretending to be weak?

Su Tingwan was furious. This liar, this scheming woman, but A Shang was completely bewitched by her appearance.

What happened next was unexpected, unbelievable, and even made Su Tingwan jealous.

The rain was so heavy that Jiang Fenghua didn't care that her shoes and skirt were soaked. She ran to Xie Shang with an umbrella and said, "Your Majesty."

Xie Shang glanced at her and said, "Didn't the king ask you to return home?"

She suddenly said, "Let me dance for the prince!"

She was not there to preach or to persuade him, but to accompany him.

Xie Shang was stunned. Before he could react, he saw Jiang Fenghua holding an umbrella and starting to dance in the rain. She had a smile on her face, like a happy elf.

He only felt that the woman under the umbrella had a soft body, graceful posture, and every movement was full of poetry.

She hummed a song, forgetting herself and lingering around Xie Shang. She didn't care about the sound of the rain, but only regarded them as beautiful notes, making people feel her vigorous power and the beauty of her dance.

Xie Shang stared at her closely. She suddenly dropped the umbrella in her hand and let the rain hit her. Almost in an instant, she was soaked all over. She took Xie Shang's hand and began to spin. She seemed to be looking for a dance partner, holding his hand to follow her steps and dancing to her heart's content.

Xie Shang roared and pulled her in front of him, "Jiang Fenghua, what are you doing?"

She leaned into his arms, blinking her eyes, "Let's play!"

"Can we play here?" Xie Shang was angry.

"Aren't we humans here to have fun? Why can't we dance here? Why can't we have fun? As long as I want, any place and any time can become my stage. I just want to be happy and comfortable, and I just want His Majesty to be happy."

She was just trying to cheer him up, and he suddenly felt warm inside.

Jiang Fenghua spun away from his arms, and her hair hit his cheek, causing some pain.

He was always calm and composed, and had never done anything rude or extreme. He thought that he would feel much better after venting his anger in the rain, but the further he walked, the deeper he seemed to sink.

Jiang Fenghua appeared in front of him like a beam of light, and she wanted to dance for him for no reason.

She said that she used dancing to kill time and even forget all her worries. When she got tired of dancing, she would just take a nap.

He had never even thought that the delicate and dignified Jiang Fenghua would do such a crazy thing in the rain on the street.

Xie Shang suddenly took her hand and danced with her until she was out of breath. She fell into his arms with a smile as beautiful as a flower.

Xie Shang suddenly felt cheerful, and knew that Jiang Fenghua was trying her best to make him happy. Although the method was extreme and undesirable, it was very effective. He picked her up and carried her sideways towards the carriage.

He glanced at Su Tingwan with cold eyes, and Su Tingwan immediately stepped back guiltily.

Xie Shang got on the carriage easily and ordered in a deep voice, "Go back home."
