Reborn to marry the emperor, I just want to confuse the emperor and seize the throne

Here, Zhu Zhenzhen had just taken two steps when the prince caught up with her, "I will escort Liang Di back to the palace. Censor Zhu and Madam Zhu are very concerned about Liang Di's health."

Zhu Zhenzhen just felt flattered. The prince in front of her was extraordinarily handsome, with tenderness in his eyes. Her face flushed, and her heartbeat suddenly quickened. She thought: He likes her too, right?

Xie Shang was tall and slender, with an unquestionable kingly aura all around him. There was a barely perceptible flash of deep meaning in his eyes. He stared at her face and said in a deep voice, "Let's go!" Giving respect to Zhu Zhenzhen was also giving respect to Zhu Yushi. Thinking this way, he felt much more at ease.

He took a step forward and had no intention of supporting the weak Zhu Liangdi.

Seeing that he was not as close to her as he was to the Crown Princess, Zhu Zhenzhen felt a little aggrieved. She thought that her father and mother must have come to him to plead for mercy, so he looked at her twice more.

She followed closely behind him, and as long as she was close to him, he would always like her.

"Ouch!" Zhu Zhenzhen suddenly groaned.

Xie Shang stopped and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I think I sprained my ankle..."

Wu Xin followed beside him and whispered to the palace maid, "Hurry up and help the young lady. If you fail to serve her well, you will be punished to go to the laundry department." She wanted to use this opportunity to get close to the prince, but it was impossible.

Xie Shang stared at the palace maids behind her and said in a deep voice, "Serve them carefully."

"Yes." Meixiang and another palace maid hurried forward to support her.

Zhu Zhenzhen was held by two people, one on each side. A hint of embarrassment flashed across her eyes, but she still maintained a gentle look on her face and quickly explained, "You don't have to hold me so tightly. I'm not hurt. I was just bumped by a stone just now."

Xie Shang understood what he meant, pretended not to hear, and continued walking forward.

When they reached the gate of Yuling Palace, Xie Shang said, "I will take you here. If you sprain your ankle, please ask the imperial physician to take a look. Then you can go back to the palace and take good care of yourself."

Zhu Zhenzhen clenched her fingers tightly. After all, the prince sent her away for her father's sake. She simply brought up her father again and said softly, "The prince has never set foot in Yuling Palace. Now he has arrived at the palace gate and he doesn't even want to go in to sit. I also have something that I would like to ask Your Highness to pass on to my father. Can Your Highness be flexible and help me?"

When Xie Shang saw her bring up Censor Zhu, his expression remained unchanged, "I'll go in and have a seat."

Seeing that it really worked, Zhu Zhenzhen was overjoyed. She took the initiative to walk in front of the prince and started to talk. "Your Highness, please come in. I just happened to sew a pair of gloves for your father, which will be used after winter. If your Highness doesn't mind my craftsmanship, I will make you a pair too."

Xie Shang stared at Zhu Zhenzhen's heels, a cold smile appearing at the corner of his lips. All women are the same, only his Ruan Ruan is different.

Xie Shang had never been to the young lady's palace, and he was not interested in these things. Because the Qin family's property was confiscated and the court was in turmoil recently, the Censorate was even busier, and there were many places where Censor Zhu was needed.

Xia He and Xia Chan were cleaning the yard when they saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suddenly come to Yuling Palace. They looked at each other and in an instant, Xia He fell to the ground as if exhausted.

Xia Chan hurriedly asked, "Xia He, what's wrong with you?"

"I just feel a little dizzy. Let's clean up quickly. The young lady will be unhappy if you don't clean it well." Xia He crossed her arms, which looked like a large area of ​​her arm was burned, and the blisters were all broken. It was painful just to look at.

Xia Chan said, "Take a break. I'll do the rest of the work. I have to clean the toilet later. The wounds on your body cannot be touched by dirty water, otherwise it will be more serious."

Xie Shang walked up to the two palace maids, who quickly knelt down and saluted, "Your servants Xia He and Xia Chan pay their respects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." They also revealed the wounds on their hands and arms.

He looked at them and his gaze fell on their hands. He recognized that they were the palace maids who told the truth that night. Were the injuries on their bodies caused by Zhu Zhenzhen?

Xie Shang admitted that he was not a good person, but he was not a bad person who had no bottom line and took out his anger on women or servants. The ladies in the Eastern Palace could be scheming and compete for favors, but they had to at least have good intentions. This was his only requirement for them to conceive an heir to the throne, otherwise they would only be a decoration when they entered the palace.

Upon seeing this, Zhu Zhenzhen quickly asked Meixiang and her trusted nanny to stand in front of Xia He and Xia Chan, while she took Xie Shang's arm and said, "Your Highness, please come in. They accidentally knocked over the kettle when boiling water and scalded you. We have asked the imperial physician to check your wound."

Xia He trembled with fear and covered the wound with her sleeves. Her voice trembled, "It was my fault that I accidentally knocked over the kettle. It has nothing to do with you, my lady."

Xie Shang stared at Zhu Zhenzhen's face with cold eyes. The maid almost said that the young lady had burned herself. She said in a deep voice, "Let the imperial physician take a good look at them. I don't want rumors of abuse of servants to spread from the East Palace. You should also learn from the kindness of the Crown Princess."

Zhu Zhenzhen was terrified and wanted to explain, "I...I know."

Xie Shang suddenly took her hand and praised, "What beautiful hands you have. Zhenzhen made a pair of gloves for Censor Zhu. Please make a pair for me when you have time. I can use them when winter comes."

He slapped them in the face and then gave them a sweet treat. Naturally, he would not really walk away just because of the two palace maids. He would give Zhu Zhenzhen and the Zhu family whatever they needed, as long as they served him and the Great Zhou obediently.

Zhu Zhenzhen thought the prince would pursue the matter, but she saw a hint of charm in her eyes and said gently, "Yes, I will make a pair of gloves for your Highness as soon as possible."

She took Xie Shang's hand and was about to pull him into the house.

Xie Shang let her go and said gently, "I still have official business to attend to. If you want me to pass something on to Censor Zhu, just tell someone to give it to the guards." After Xie Shang finished speaking, he did not enter the house, but left Yuling Palace and went directly to Taihua Palace.

Zhu Zhenzhen's intention was too obvious, which made Xie Shang very uncomfortable. As the crown prince, how could he not know that the emperor's most taboo was to commit adultery in broad daylight? Censor Zhu's family was also a scholarly family, and the daughter of the Zhu family should be self-respecting and learn to be a virtuous woman.

When Zhu Zhenzhen saw Xie Shang leaving, she felt lonely and there was reluctance in her eyes. The prince had already come in, and everything would be accomplished soon. Wasn't she attractive enough?

She turned around and glared at Xia He and Xia Chan coldly.

Thinking of the prince's warning just now, the prince likes kind-hearted women. No wonder the princess pretends to be virtuous and generous all day long. The palace maids and eunuchs in Chenxi Palace all have rosy faces, as if they have all been favored by the prince.

She smiled and said, "You don't have to work in the yard anymore. Go and have a rest. Meixiang, go and ask the imperial physician to come and take a look at their injuries. Once they are healed, let them do their original work."

"Thank you, young lady." Xia He and Xia Chan kowtowed quickly to express their gratitude. It was Nanny Wang who sent someone to tip them off. It was Nanny Wang's reminder that freed them from the torture they had suffered these past few days.

Xia He's arm was scalded by Zhu Liangdi "accidentally". It hurt so much when the boiling hot kettle fell on her arm that she is still frightened.

Unexpectedly, although Zhu Liangdi looked like a gentle woman, she was ruthless in her actions. They all wanted to serve in the Crown Princess's palace, and the Crown Princess had a very good temper.

Now that Nanny Wang has helped them, they will be very grateful and will remember this kindness in their hearts.
