The opportunity came very quickly. Su Xiaoqian was still the same as in memory. Her only younger brother was sick and needed money to save his life.

It has been a month since the last time he slept with her, but Fu Rong has no intention of letting Azhi sleep with him again.

Empress Dowager Xu was unwilling to force her son, so she placed her hopes on Azhi's belly.

I hope she is lucky enough to get what she wants by sleeping with me once.

Inside the Cining Palace, Azhi looked normal and nothing unusual happened, but Cuizhu was a little anxious.

Empress Dowager Xu looked at Azhi's belly.

"Has Concubine Xian had any changes of clothes this month?"

Cuizhu, who was standing by, lowered her head and replied, "If you were to ask the Queen Mother, your period has just ended three days ago."

Cuizhu was also looking forward to it, hoping that Azhi would be lucky enough to conceive a royal heir, so that her position in the palace would be more secure.

But her period came on time, which made Cuizhu very worried.

For a whole month, Fu Rong seemed to have forgotten Azhi.

Azhi hadn't seen Fu Rong since their last meal, but he still sent her a bowl of her medicine every day.

Otherwise, he would have to face the scolding from Empress Dowager Xu.

When Empress Dowager Xu heard that Azhi's period had come as usual, her expression immediately turned ugly.

She pinched the Buddhist beads and snorted coldly, "You are really useless. Not only can you not keep the emperor, but you are not lucky enough to conceive an heir. I shouldn't have chosen you to enter the palace in the first place."

The palace holds a three-year election.

Empress Dowager Xu personally selected Azhi to enter the palace at the cost of giving up her power.

It was to let her give birth to the eldest prince so that he could have the power in his own hands.

But Azhi really disappointed her.

Faced with the anger of Empress Dowager Xu, Azhi could only lower his head and beg for mercy.

"Please calm down, Queen Mother. I really have no other choice. If Your Majesty does not summon me, this baby will not pop out of the ground."

Queen Mother Xu stared at her coldly, "Forget it, I will help you a few more times. If your belly doesn't work out, hum..."

There is no mention of what comes after this, but it is obvious that the outcome will be very tragic.

When Azhi left the Cining Palace, Chen Yue was already waiting on the palace road.

Cuizhu beside him was wiping the cold sweat off his face.

It seems that he was frightened by Empress Dowager Xu.

Chen Yue roughly guessed what happened.

"The Queen was scolded again?"

Azhi raised her little hand naturally, and Chen Yue gently raised his arm to make it easier for Azhi to support him.

"Well, the Queen Mother asked me to get pregnant and have a child as soon as possible, but I really don't want to be coerced. What the hell is Fu Rong..."

"Miss!"

Seeing that Ahzhi was angry, he became even more uncontrollable in his words.

Chen Yue helplessly reminded, "Even if Your Majesty is angry, you still have to go back to Luhua Palace to complain. This is outside the Cining Palace, there are many people and many gossips, so Your Majesty should be careful with your words."

What it means is that you can go back to Luhua Palace and curse as much as you want.

Now the Luhua Palace is like an iron barrel.

Because all the people inside are Chen Yue’s people.

Ah Zhi snorted, "I know."

Listening to Azhi and Chen Yue's conversation, Cuizhu had become accustomed to walking behind them.

A whole month's time.

She has accepted the secret affair between Azhi and Chen Yue.

What's more, Azhi did get a lot of help. The entire West Palace was under Chen Yue's jurisdiction, so naturally Azhi's life was very enjoyable.

As the two were passing by the rockery, Azhi stopped and pricked up his ears.

"It's bad, young lady. The Su family just sent a message to the palace that your brother is seriously ill and can't get up. Your family needs you to send some money back."

The two days before happened to be the days for delegating the monthly allowance.

Every month when Su Xiaoqian received her monthly salary, she would take out half and ask someone to send it back.

Ah Zhi happened to meet Su Xiaoqian who was asking someone to send some money back.

"How could this happen? My brother has always been in good health, how could he suddenly get sick? Did you make a mistake?"

There was disbelief in Su Xiaoqian's voice.

"I have not concealed a single word. I entered the palace thanks to your care, and I will never lie to you."

Seeing that the other party was so confident, it seemed that he was not lying.

Su Xiaoqian's face turned pale and her voice trembled as she asked, "How much silver do you need?"

"No ordinary doctor can cure this disease. Even if they prescribe medicine, they need the best medicinal materials, which will cost at least two hundred taels of silver."

When Su Xiaoqian heard that it actually cost two hundred taels of silver, her voice became much higher in surprise.

"Two hundred taels? Even though I serve the emperor, my monthly allowance is only five taels."

Thinking of the money she had saved, Su Xiaoqian hurriedly took out her purse and handed it over.

"Send these back together and let my brother see a doctor first."

I have been in the palace for seven years.

I have to send back half of my monthly allowance every month just to ensure that my parents and younger brothers can live a stable life.

I saved the remaining half, thinking it could have other uses in the future.

If I cannot become the master's wife, then I will regard it as my dowry after leaving the palace.

The young eunuch pointed at the silver and shook his head, "Not enough, young lady, we can only find a good doctor here, it will be difficult to get medicine later."

Su Xiaoqian was extremely anxious, but she still pretended to be calm and said, "Then you should send it out first. I will go back and think of a solution."

"it is good."

I heard the footsteps of the two people leaving.

Only then did Azhi look at Chen Yue and smiled.

"Do you think Zeng Rou and Fu Rong will help her?"

Long before Azhi came into contact with Su Xiaoqian, Chen Yue had already investigated the other party thoroughly.

"Zeng Rou can't stand the good looks she had in the past. Su Xiaoqian was arranged to serve in front of the emperor because she was not good-looking."

"But now Su Xiaoqian has gradually grown up. Although she is not as beautiful as the moon and flowers, she is young and energetic, which is exactly the youth Zeng Rou desires the most."

Chen Yue's master was serving in the imperial court and was also the chief eunuch, so he was naturally aware of the news coming from the imperial court.

"Tsk, that's really pitiful. Such a poor little girl, Chen Yue, do you want me to help her?"

It was still a clean and pure smile, as if there was no haze at all.

There was still concern for Su Xiaoqian in her eyes.

But there can’t be any kind-hearted people in the palace.

Chen Yue said earnestly, "My queen, if you rush to do something kind, you will only be treated as worthless by others. Why don't you wait a little longer?"

"OK then."

"Your Majesty, please watch your step. I will help you stay steady."

Inside Luhua Palace.

Azhi was nestling in Chen Yue's arms.

Looking at the other person's slender and beautiful hands, peeling round grapes for him.

When the grape flesh fell into his mouth, Azhi used her tongue to stroke his fingertips with an indescribable teasing.

Chen Yue felt like he was being teased.

Ah Zhi was eating grapes and said with a smile, "These grapes taste really good."

She slowly raised her fingers and reached in along his collar.

This was simply playing with fire, causing Chen Yue's eyes to darken. He held the other's restless hand with one hand, and gently embraced Azhi's waist with the other hand, kissing the other's lips hard.
