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

Lu Lingchuan's lonely figure walked slowly along the long palace road.

Under the dark sky, the palace looked like a huge beast dormant in the darkness.

Yes, this monster has its mouth wide open.

Waiting to devour everything that is fresh, beautiful, precious, and sentimental in the world...

Even so, Lu Lingchuan hoped that this dark night could last forever.

As long as it doesn't get dark, the window paper is not broken. Then there will always be a glimmer of hope for him and Shen Yao.

"Your Majesty, I will accompany you back!"

Wang Dafu had been following the emperor for so long, and he felt really unsure.

All I know is that when the emperor came down from the star-catching platform, his face was gloomy and he looked like he was about to cry.

Now I didn't go back to Xingning Palace. After walking heavily around Changxin Palace twice, I came to Zichen Palace. I couldn't get in, so I just walked around the palace wall blankly.

Wang Dafu couldn't persuade him, so he could only follow him closely.

Outside the red wall of Zichen Palace, Lu Lingchuan finally stopped and reached out to pick off a tea stem that escaped from the horn.

The flowers are blooming and the fragrance is fragrant.

But looking at the flowers in his hands, Lu Lingchuan only felt guilty.

He asked himself how long it had been since he picked flowers for Shen Yao with his own hands. In the past, when he loved her, he not only ordered people to collect exotic flowers and herbs from all over the world to send to her, he would often accompany her to enjoy the flowers, and he would also unexpectedly pick the most beautiful one among them and tie it in her bun.

The past incident of giving her flowers was a long time ago, but it really happened in the past.

He couldn't remember the last time he enjoyed flower viewing with her, but he remembered the last time he finally thought of sending flowers to her. Lu Lingchuan stepped into Changxin Palace with his arms full of flowers and plants.

What they got was the news that Shen Yao was missing in the palace.

But tonight, although the empty branches have not been broken, it is difficult to find the person with the hairpin.

Lu Lingchuan threw away the flowers in his hand and walked to Cining Palace.

The guarding eunuchs had changed their faces since the last time they put the Queen Mother under house arrest.

Lu Lingchuan stepped into the hall and saw the woman kneeling in front of the Buddhist niche, wearing plain clothes and a hairpin, closing her eyes and chanting sutras.

After not seeing each other for a few days, the Queen Mother seemed much older, completely without her usual dignity and domineeringness.

"Queen Mother!" Lu Lingchuan called out.

The Queen Mother ignored him and continued to mutter Buddhist scriptures.

Lu Lingchuan said, "Mother, my son came today to tell you that you finally got what you wanted. I should not have any more noble concubines in the future."

After he finished speaking, he sneered, his expression full of loneliness and sadness.

The Queen Mother heard something strange in the emperor's voice and looked up. Lu Lingchuan's eyes were blank, his face was blue, and he had lost a lot of weight.

Is this still her rebellious emperor's son who rules the world?

For a time, the resentment that had been piling up in the Queen Mother's heart for the past few days dissipated.

"What happened to the imperial concubine? Haven't you found her yet?"

She stood up and asked in surprise.

Lu Lingchuan murmured, "We have found her, but she is no longer willing to return to the palace."

The Queen Mother was anxious, "Aijia was also obsessed that day and didn't think anything of her."

"If the Ai family prays in front of the Buddha every day, they are also asking for the Buddha's blessing, to bless your dragon body and health, and to bless the eternal stability of the Xihe dynasty."

Unable to hear the Queen Mother's words clearly, Lu Lingchuan only felt that the world was uncertain and unpredictable, and that he was no longer the king who controlled the world and people's hearts.

The Queen Mother had never seen such an emperor before, and she hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? The Ai family will never interfere with the imperial concubine's affairs again."

"Tell the concubine that the Ai family will not care about everything in the harem. Let her live a peaceful life with you."

After hearing the Queen Mother's words, Lu Lingchuan's eyes were filled with tears, but he kept shaking his head, as if he was stunned.

"Why, is she still having a temper with you?" the Queen Mother asked.

"Mother, starting from tomorrow, you don't have to stay in Cining Palace forever. It's your son who is unfilial. From now on, as long as you don't interfere with the affairs of the harem, you can live your life with peace of mind."

After Lu Lingchuan finished speaking, he looked deeply at the Queen Mother and strode out of Cining Palace.

The Queen Mother hurriedly chased him out and warned, "Your Majesty, you should also take care of yourself."

The concerned voice coming from behind gradually dissipated in the night sky.

Lu Lingchuan paused slightly, and then walked more and more hastily along the long palace road.

He vaguely hated the Queen Mother, but he couldn't do anything else. Perhaps in the future, in this huge palace, this is the only person who is truly close to him.

Hearing the panting footsteps coming up behind him, Lu Lingchuan stopped and asked,——

"Great blessing. In this life, I have lived up to my father, the emperor, my mother, and the world. So, I am a good emperor, right?"

"Your Majesty, you are the young emperor. When you first came to the court, the situation was turbulent and refugees were everywhere. In the past ten years, you have worked hard to govern. Now the weather is smooth and the people live in peace."

"Your wisdom is praised by the world."

"You, please come up with nice words to coax me."

Lu Lingchuan sighed, "Whether I am a good emperor or not will be judged by future generations!"

"But I am not a good husband, but it is absolutely true. Of all the women in this harem who claim to be my concubines, none of them live a really happy life."

"Not only that, the woman I love is even more sad!"

Lu Lingchuan felt bitter in his heart and couldn't help but say a few more words.

There was no one to talk to, so he and Dafu, a slave, actually talked a lot about what was on their mind.

"Your Majesty, the imperial concubine will come back tomorrow. No matter how arrogant she is, let's coax her properly."

"This slave kowtows to the empress. Even if she bleeds from the kowtow, she must be kept."

Wang Dafu kept comforting the emperor, "The imperial concubine is kind-hearted and always loves her slaves. She will stay."

Lu Lingchuan remained silent and walked straight into the south study room.

Instead of tossing and turning during the long night of sleeplessness, it is better to deal with the mountain of political affairs along with the updates.

At this time, Xue Yue took Su Qing and entered Shen's mansion in the dark.

He was afraid that Shen Yao would be trapped in the palace tomorrow and would not be free for the rest of his life, so he tried hard to persuade her to go away with him.

In the flower hall, Master Shen stood with his sleeves hanging down, silent.

Su Qing came back after making inquiries and said to Xue Yue in embarrassment,

"Then Jinwu General Xia Huaibei is guarding the main entrance. And there are countless secret guards squatting on the entire roof of Shen Mansion. I counted them next to each other, and there should be no less than a hundred people."

"Master Marquis, this servant can get out, but Miss Shen can't."

"If that's the case, we have no choice but to break in." Xue Yue said in a deep voice.

He then carefully made arrangements, "Xia Huaibei has great martial arts skills and a meticulous mind. Only I can compete with him. Su Qing, please quickly mobilize all the people."

"When everyone arrives, I will hold Xia Huaibei down, and then order all the feather guards to dispatch. During the melee, you can take Sister Yao away."

"To increase your chances of winning, sister Yao, it's best to put on another disguise!" Xue Yue said firmly.

Shen Yao saluted Xue Yue, "Brother Mingguang, I accept your kindness. But I am grateful to you, but I can't leave with you. The Shen family is a big family, with hundreds of people in the family."

"I can't bring trouble to my clan members, and I don't want to remain anonymous."

"Sister Yao, have you really thought about it? Once you enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea. If the emperor doesn't let me go, you may live forever..." Xue Yue said sadly.

Shen Yao smiled lightly, "Without the emperor's will, I will always be his noble concubine. Even if I escape to the ends of the world, I have to hide and I will not be able to be honest with others for the rest of my life."

"Tomorrow's ending is nothing more than being killed or imprisoned, but there is also a half chance of being free. No matter what kind of ending, I have no regrets!"

"Okay! Then I will follow the master into the palace tomorrow. Even if I risk my life, I will protect you!" Xue Yue made up his mind.

Shen Yao bowed to everyone in the hall, then said goodbye and returned to his boudoir - Yiluzhai.

In early summer, Yiluzhai is full of flowers and plants, full of vitality.

The swing she had when she was a child was made for her by Lu Lingchuan himself, and it was already obsolete.

Shen Yao decided that if she could leave the palace tomorrow, she would order someone to set a fire on the swing.
