Rebirth: The imperial concubine is no longer jealous, and the emperor panics

Xia Huaibei was a loyal, brave and just man, but he could not see that Wang Dafu, a eunuch, had the desire to pry into the secret affairs of the Tian family.

He said politely, "Eunuch Wang, since it is a secret order from His Majesty, I have no comment, General!"

Xia Huaibei left Wang Dafu behind and strode straight into the Qinzheng Hall.

His sonorous footsteps echoed outside the Qinzheng Palace. The emperor seemed not to have seen him, but sat high on the dragon chair, his eyes silently looking into the void, with a vague look on his face.

Xia Huaibei knelt down on one knee and said slowly, "I have returned from a mission, and I have come here today to return my orders!"

Lu Lingchuan was brought back to his senses by his voice. Seeing him, his eyelids twitched slightly, then he scolded everyone waiting in the hall.

Lu Lingchuan said coldly, condescendingly. "Tell me, I can bear it!"

As soon as the emperor opened his mouth, the Qinzheng Palace was instantly filled with a cold and murderous atmosphere.

Everyone in the government and the public knew that the imperial concubine Shen and the emperor's childhood sweethearts had a deep love for each other.

Now that the emperor can put aside his dignity as a man to find out whether the imperial concubine is having an affair with another man, it can be seen that the emperor has reached the point of being intolerable this time.

Xia Huaibei lowered his eyelids and spoke word by word without any emotion.

"Your Majesty, I have thoroughly investigated all traces of General Xue since he returned to the capital."

Xia Huaibei has been in the court for many years. Before coming, he had already thought about his words over and over.

"Because he had been taught by Taifu Shen since he was a child. After returning to Beijing this time, Taifu was enthusiastic and also acted as a matchmaker for General Xue Yue."

"General Xue has rejected many noble ladies in Beijing. Only yesterday, he met the legitimate daughter of Shen Qian's family, the imperial censor."

"Xue Yue stayed at Shen Qian's home for half a day, and had a very pleasant chat with Miss Shen's family. It seems that the two families are interested in forming this marriage."

"What are you talking about? I don't want to hear it!"

Lu Lingchuan leaned back on the dragon chair, thinking thoughtfully, "You only pick the important ones, and if they are abnormal, just tell me."

"Your Majesty, this Shen Qian is the second brother of Taifu Shen. There are rumors in Beijing that the appearance of the young lady from the Censor's family and the imperial concubine are 50 or 60% similar."

"The spy also reported that when Xue Yue left Beijing to guard the border, he took a small red lacquer box with him. It has been ten years and he has never left it. The general speculates that if Xue Yue coveted the imperial concubine, the evidence of his crime should be in the mahogany box. .”

Xia Huaibei reported back all the information he had learned in a serious manner. He could tell from the clues that Xue Yue was thinking about the imperial concubine.

"Then is there any direct evidence that the imperial concubine is connected with him?"

Lu Lingchuan suppressed the embarrassment and bitterness in his heart and asked slowly.

At this time, he wanted to drive Xia Huaibei away.

He was afraid that he would hear anything about Shen Yao's infidelity from this person's mouth today.

Xia Huaibei shook his head, "I haven't found any evidence yet."

When these words reached Lu Lingchuan's ears, although he didn't feel any better, he felt faintly relieved.

Wang Dafu came back from Tai Hospital and didn't know what was going on in the Qinzheng Hall, so he could only wander outside.

A young eunuch in green clothes ran over quickly, leaned into his ear and said,

"Eunuch Wang, Minister of War Zuo Ling and General Xue Yue of the town are asking to see Your Majesty!"

Oh my God! Today is the day when the Seven Killing Stars descend to the earth, it is very dangerous!

Wang Dafu stamped his feet anxiously, why did Mr. Zuo bring in Mr. Xue Xiaohou?

Isn't this hitting His Majesty's back?

"Make them wait!"

Wang Dafu said impatiently.

A gloomy scolding from inside the palace interrupted him.

"Wang Dafu, who are you asking to wait? You are getting more and more courageous. Go and call me Xue Yue and Zuo Ling."

When the emperor scolded him, he trembled all over and hurriedly went to invite people into the palace.

Lu Lingchuan stared at the entrance of the palace with an eager look.

Wang Dafu's plump body flashed past, and Zuo Ling, who was wearing a red round-neck robe, stepped into the palace gate together with a young man in a green Lan robe.

Xue Yue is now tall and straight, and his skin is coated with a layer of honey color by the sunshine and wind and frost outside the Great Wall, making his handsome and deep facial features more three-dimensional.

After not seeing each other for many years, Lu Lingchuan still recognized the thin and short boy at a glance.

In order to stay in the palace, Wang Dafu hurriedly moved towards the emperor. He lowered his head and was busy filling tea and water with his hands, but his ears were actually raised high.

Lu Lingchuan and Xue Yue, the general of the border town, studied together in the palace school when they were young, and received the teachings of Taifu Shen.

The emperor was quite polite. He first praised Xue Yue for his ten years of hard work in guarding the border. At this time, he briefly exchanged greetings about the friendship between the two of them.

"Xue Aiqing, you have reached the marriageable age now. When you return to Beijing this time, you should settle down at home. I will grant you a marriage to the noble daughter of whichever family you like."

Lu Lingchuan said with a smile, his heavy eyes always staying on Xue Yue's face.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"

Xue Yue bowed again.

Lu Lingchuan stepped down from Danbi and helped him up with his own hands.

"Xue Aiqing, I have one more thing to entrust to Aiqing." Lu Lingchuan smiled suddenly.

Zuo Ling seemed to see a fox with an innocent smile.

"Your Majesty, please speak!"

The emperor was so polite, Xue Yue became more and more frightened.

"I accidentally lost a beloved thing, and I would like to ask Xue Aiqing to find it for me."

As soon as Lu Lingchuan finished speaking, Xia Huaibei, Zuo Ling, and Wang Dafu all shuddered.

"It is my duty to help you take care of your worries!"

Xue Yue knelt down on one knee and bowed his hands to the emperor as a courtesy.

"I am very happy! I am going to host a banquet for Mingguang tonight, and I have ordered Zuo Ling, the Minister of War, and Xia Huaibei, General Jinwu, to accompany you!"

"Wang Dafu, go and send the concubine to Hanyuan Hall to wait. She has been following me and Mingguang since she was a child. Let her accompany you tonight!"

The corners of Lu Lingchuan's lips curled up, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes.

Oh my god, your majesty is probably going crazy right now!

Wang Dafu wailed in his heart, and his hands tucked into his sleeves couldn't help but tremble.

"Then let the royal manager make arrangements. I'll be waiting for you at Hanyuan Hall!"

Lu Lingchuan flicked the sleeves of his dragon robe and strode away.

The people in the palace were left looking at each other, and Zuo Ling patted Xue Yue's shoulder meaningfully.

Wang Dafu turned around and cast a sad look.

He knew that maybe there would be blood in Hanyuan Hall tonight.

"Oh, Your Majesty, what kind of trouble are you making!"

He muttered something in his mouth and walked towards Changxin Palace like wind at his feet.

Shen Yao slept on the imperial concubine's couch and had a dream.

In the dream, she went back to when she was twelve or three years old.

She often changed into men's clothes, tied up her long hair, and sneaked out of Shen's house.

The long street is packed with people, shouting and selling.

When the juggler sees the jade-faced Young Master Shen, he will ask the hozen tied in his hand to do some more somersaults and some more bows.

The chef at the wonton stall, because of her dime of silver, would cook a bowl of wontons every time.

Shen Yao recited her father's teachings - "One porridge and one meal should be thought of as hard-earned, and half a thread of constant thoughts are hard to come by." So she didn't dare to waste it, and she always felt full.

In Changxin Palace, Shen Yao woke up from her dream, her eyes were misty, and her temples were soaked with sweat.

"Chun Nong, I miss home and my father."

In her previous life, she was freezing in the palace. In her next life, Shen Yao was so hot that she felt sleepy.

"My Lady, Your Majesty declares that you will accompany Hanyuan Hall tonight!"

The little eunuch's drawn-out voice suddenly penetrated through the window lattice.
