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

The Emperor had already seen through the conspiracy and it was Concubine Su who was behind it. The Empress knew that someone was following Jiang Fenghua, and she was using Jiang Fenghua to fight against Concubine Su.

The emperor said coldly, "Take this gossiping maid out and beat her to death. If anyone dares to disturb the harem, she will serve as a warning to them."

Jiang Fenghua watched this scene coldly. This was the imperial power. No matter how big a mistake they made, in the end, they could drag a palace maid out to take the blame and everything would be resolved.

If she was molested by Xie Yu today, she deserved it. It was the same in her previous life. She was framed and Lian Ye took on everything to save her. In the end, Lian Ye was beaten to death by them.

She knew very well that only by holding power in her own hands could she be the one wielding the stick instead of being forced to be beaten.

She had nothing to do with what happened today. She was the cleanest one. At most, she was just like the saying that when gods fight, mortals suffer.

She is just a victim and will be sympathized by Xie Shang more.

After the emperor left, Concubine Su also left with a look of grievance in her eyes. The palace maid who was beaten to death was directly thrown into a mass grave. Concubine Su secretly ordered someone to take some silver to appease her family, and the matter was over.

Xie Yu was beaten half to death and scolded by the emperor, which was considered a punishment for him.

Queen Cheng returned to Kunning Palace angrily without even giving Jiang Fenghua an explanation.

After entering the bedroom, Jiang Fenghua timidly threw herself into Xie Shang's arms and whispered, "I am so scared."

Xie Shang hugged her and comforted her softly, "I was busy with my father today, so I didn't take care of you. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left you alone in the palace."

Jiang Fenghua shook her head, her eyes as clear as a lake, flowing with a soft and firm light, "Today, I finally understand that since I have married the prince, I can no longer be so fragile. I must learn to protect myself and not let the prince worry. I don't want to be a fragile butterfly under the prince's wings. I don't want to be a burden to the prince. I want to grow up."

Seeing her so cheerful, Xie Shang smiled, his deep eyes radiating a sparkling light, and said in an ambiguous voice, "Growing up comes at a great price."

"What's the price?" Jiang Fenghua's voice was soft and pleasant to the ears.

Xie Shang kissed her lips, like a dragonfly touching the water, teasing her deliberately, "This king is young, impulsive, passionate, and full of energy."

He whispered in her ear, "This is the price, can you afford it?"

Jiang Fenghua's cheeks were flushed and she felt shy. He actually used the compliments to flirt with her.

She pulled Xie Shang's hand and broke free from his arms, "Your Highness, have you had dinner yet? I specially prepared a few snacks for you today. Your Highness, please try them and see if they suit your taste."

Xie Shang was a little hungry, "I haven't eaten yet."

"This one is called Jade Dew. It's made by grinding flower petals. Isn't the color very pretty? Your Majesty, try it and see if it melts in your mouth. Isn't the light floral fragrance endless and memorable?" Jiang Fenghua scooped a small piece with a small spoon and handed it to him. "My mother also thought it was delicious after tasting it."

Xie Shang tasted a piece and found it was indeed sweet, with a unique fragrance and mellow taste between his lips and teeth.

He pulled her to his lap and wanted to kiss her again, but Jiang Fenghua stopped him, "Don't do it here. I get scared when I think of Prince Yu quietly walking into this room. It's a good thing I'm not alone here today."

"I will take you somewhere else." His voice was as soft as the wind, graceful and moving, intoxicating.

"Somewhere else?" Jiang Fenghua opened his eyes wide and was full of questions.

Xie Shang raised the corners of his lips slightly, "This king doesn't like this place either. Let's go to the bedroom where this king used to live."

He held her hand and slowly walked out of the dormitory. A breeze blew, causing ripples. Xie Shang tightened his fingers, and Jiang Fenghua felt that he was a little nervous.

At this time, Nanny Xi suddenly came over to greet them. Seeing the two holding hands, she suddenly understood something and said, "This servant greets the prince and princess."

"I will take the princess to live in the main courtyard. Please go and prepare, Madam Xi!" Xie Shangchao said this to her, and Madam Xi naturally understood what he meant.

Nanny Xi received the order and went there quickly.

In his previous life, Jiang Fenghua dreamed of coming to the main courtyard, but unfortunately...

In this life, Xie Shang brought her here personally. She knew that she would spend a wonderful night with him here. Even if he became the crown prince in the future, she would make him remember every little thing they had here.

The environment of the main courtyard is indeed much more superior, with magnificent decorations and majestic and solemn pavilions, all of which demonstrate the imperial power and wealth.

As soon as Nanny Xi asked the maid to bring in toiletries and water, Xie Shang said to her, "Neither the king nor the princess has eaten yet. Nanny, please prepare some food."

"I have prepared it long ago and am waiting for the prince and princess." Nanny Xi ordered the palace maids to take out the food from the food boxes. There was a whole table filled with exquisite imperial meals.

Looking at the table full of dishes, Jiang Fenghua suddenly understood something. These were all good things for strengthening the body. Xie Shang was at an age full of vigor and vitality, so even if he didn't need to supplement, he should be fine!

Nanny Xi served them each a bowl of soup, "Your Highness and Princess, you have worked hard. Drink more soup. This is what the Queen personally prepared for you in the kitchen."

Xie Shang's cheeks were burning. Was it too obvious that his mother had prepared all these things, or was it because she didn't trust him enough? He glanced at Jiang Fenghua secretly, and seeing that she lowered her head slightly, he said, "Mammy, thank my mother for me."

Seeing how much the Queen loved him, Jiang Fenghua thought about how Su Tingwan had made Concubine Su the Queen Mother after he ascended the throne, and Queen Cheng was so angry that she almost wanted to vomit blood.

Queen Cheng was truly kind to her son Xie Shang and considered everything for him, but in the end, he became an unfilial son because of a woman.

She sighed in her heart, wondering how much magic power Su Tingwan had to deserve this from him.

Jiang Fenghua also said in a gentle voice, "Mammy, please help me thank my mother." After drinking this soup, she was afraid that she would not be able to sleep tonight.

When Nanny Xi saw that Jiang Fenghua didn't drink the soup, she asked, "Why doesn't the princess drink it? This is the Queen's gift."

Jiang Fenghua took a sip symbolically and said, "I don't drink soup much at night. It will make me fat."

Nanny Xi watched Xie Shang drink the soup and did not force him to do anything. "I will not disturb the prince and princess from having their meal."

Only after Nanny Xi left did Xie Shang look at Jiang Fenghua and say, "Eat quickly, eat more, it's rare for your mother to cook." She probably didn't know the purpose of this meal!

Jiang Fenghua nodded shyly and took a few bites symbolically, "I am full, Your Majesty, please enjoy your meal."

Watching Jiang Fenghua get up from her seat and leave, he realized that Jiang Fenghua knew everything. It seemed that Nanny Wang had taught her a lot when she went to the Jiang Mansion.

In that case, he is not nervous anymore. What is bound to come will eventually come.

Concubine Su has stretched her hands too far. She can make plans for Wanwan, but she cannot stretch her hands to Jiang Fenghua. Jiang Fenghua is innocent, and she must give her the dignity that she deserves as the Princess of Heng.

After Xie Shang finished his meal, he asked Nanny Xi to clean up before letting her leave.
