I asked you to save the villain, not to take him as your wife!

When Wen Qi heard the emperor say that Concubine Shu was unwell, he became a little suspicious.

However, in order to prevent someone from poisoning Concubine Shu, Wen Qi hurriedly asked the system to check the situation.

The result was that nothing happened to Concubine Shu.

Not only that, Concubine Shu is enjoying it now.

Several palace servants massaged her shoulders and legs, and there were palace maids who were responsible for feeding her and serving her tea.

These days, he lives a more comfortable life than the emperor.

Anyway, Wen Qi had never seen anyone who was unwell behave like this.

"Well...of course I have invited the imperial physician." said the emperor.

Wen Qi raised his eyes and glanced at the other person with a gloomy look in his eyes.

If it weren't for the image in his mind, he almost believed it.

"Did the imperial physician tell me where exactly the discomfort is?" Wen Qi asked, pretending to be ignorant.

"It's mainly because you're depressed. You should go see your mother." The emperor waved his hand and said.

At this moment, Wen Qi was almost certain that the emperor knew that Concubine Shu was fine.

But he still responded respectfully.

Compared to going to Concubine Shu's palace, staying in the imperial study is more unbearable.

He also wanted to know why the couple did this.

After coming out of the imperial study, Wen Qi quickly walked towards Concubine Shu's palace.

Along the way, Wen Qi kept playing the surveillance footage from Concubine Shu's side in his mind.

When they were halfway through the journey, a little eunuch appeared on the surveillance screen.

He came to report Wen Qi's itinerary.

Upon hearing that Wen Qi was already on the way, Concubine Shu's palace suddenly became busy.

Some were painting sickly makeup on Concubine Shu, some were fumigating her with medicine... anyway, it was a busy yet orderly scene.

Wen Qi became even more certain that the emperor and Concubine Shu were plotting something.

Maybe he is trying to use his "illness" to make him agree to something that would embarrass him.

To be honest, Wen Qi had the urge to turn around and leave the palace at this moment.

But he had already promised the Emperor that he would visit Concubine Shu, so it would definitely be inappropriate for him to just leave now.

Forget it. He knew that Concubine Shu was faking illness. If the demands were too excessive, he would just expose it.

In fact, Wen Qi had almost guessed what Concubine Shu's purpose was.

It's nothing more than urging marriage.

This matter still needs a thorough solution.

Otherwise, Concubine Shu would make a fuss about this matter every other day, and it would be very annoying for him to deal with it.

Soon, Wen Qi arrived outside Shu Guifei's palace.

As soon as he arrived here, Wen Qi saw some palace servants boiling medicine at the door.

Wen Qi: “…”

As for that.

There is clearly a small kitchen in Concubine Shu's palace, but she didn't boil the medicine in the small kitchen but went outside to boil it. Don't they really think this is strange?

Although Wen Qi knew very well that they did this probably because they wanted him to see this scene.

But the purpose is too obvious...

Wen Qi suppressed the twitching of his mouth and walked in.

The two palace maids who were boiling medicine at the door saw Qi and didn't ask anything, but couldn't help but look at each other.

When both of them saw confusion in each other's eyes, the two palace maids had to turn around and look at Wen Qi's back.

Of course Wen Qi felt the gaze behind him.

But he pretended not to notice.

After walking quickly into the hall, Wen Qi saw Concubine Shu with a pale face and lips.

"Qi'er is here, please sit down." The weak voice of Concubine Shu sounded, and she looked very frail.

"Mother, you are not feeling well. Stop sitting and lie down." Wen Qi's face was full of concern.

As for acting, he has never learned it, but life is like a play, who doesn’t have some acting skills?

"Cough cough cough... I've been lying down these days and feel even weaker. I'll feel more energetic if I sit up." Concubine Shu continued weakly.

"You can't sit for a long time if you're not feeling well. Mother, you must follow the doctor's advice." Wen Qi continued to persuade with great concern.

Concubine Shu felt that the corners of her mouth were twitching.

What can I say? This son really cares about her health.

But I was too stubborn about staying in bed.

Concubine Shu decided not to talk about this anymore and turned the conversation to the main topic.

Thinking of this, Concubine Shu started coughing again.

After coughing for a while, she pretended to be sad and said, "Qi'er, I'm afraid your mother is not going to be well this time."

"Mother, please don't think like that. The imperial physician can definitely cure you. If they can't cure you, then what qualifications do they have to receive such a high salary?" Wen Qi said seriously.

Concubine Shu: “…”

She just felt that every answer from Wen Qi was beyond her expectations.

After what she just said, shouldn't Wen Qi be worried, sad, and then try his best to comfort her?

Why does it feel like Wen Qi’s focus has become the imperial physician’s salary?

"Ahem, Qi'er, listen to what your mother says..." Concubine Shu had no choice but to "weakly" guide the topic back.

"Okay, son, I won't say anything anymore. You speak, mother." Wen Qi agreed immediately.

Concubine Shu always felt that Wen Qi's words were strange, but it was rare for him to cooperate so she continued with the performance.

"Mother is already satisfied to have a son like you in this life. The only regret is that I couldn't see you get married and have children." Concubine Shu said weakly.

After hearing what Concubine Shu said, Wen Qi's eyes changed.

Wen Qi had previously guessed that Concubine Shu was pretending to be sick in order to use her illness as an excuse to urge marriage.

Now that this speculation has been confirmed, Wen Qi is naturally in a bad mood.

After saying those words, Concubine Shu was observing Wen Qi's expression.

When she saw Wen Qi's eyes changed, her heart skipped a beat.

She was originally unwilling to do this.

But it has been a long time since the rumors about Wen Qi and Wei Ji happened.

Wen Qi hadn't mentioned this person in front of her for a long time.

She felt that Wen Qi's attitude had softened, so she naturally had hope of having a grandson.

As long as there is hope for anything, we want to try it and strive for it.

The same was true when Concubine Shu pretended to be sick this time.

"hehe."

Wen Qi uttered two sarcastic syllables from his throat.

Concubine Shu didn't know why he was laughing like that, but she instinctively felt that something bad was going to happen.

"Mother, you have really taken great pains to help your son get married." Wen Qi said this in a neutral tone.

In just a few seconds, he also figured out why Concubine Shu did this.

It's just that I feel there is hope, so I force him to agree to something under the banner of doing it for his own good.

After all, his attitude is not obvious enough.

"Qi'er, I..." Concubine Shu opened her mouth, wanting to explain something.

Wen Qi raised his hand to interrupt.

"Mother, there is no need to explain. This matter is ultimately my fault. It's my fault that I didn't explain it clearly enough." Wen Qi said with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

"No..." Concubine Shu spoke hurriedly. She finally realized that she might have made a stupid move.

Wen Qi raised his hand again.

"I don't like women. This has nothing to do with Wei Ji, Zhang Ji, or Li Ji. Even without them, I still don't like them."

"Mother, do you understand?" Wen Qi looked straight into Concubine Shu's eyes.
