The prince supports her, and the reborn princess kills people

Gu Beihuai's words sounded somewhat aggrieved, causing Shen Qingyan's brain to race as she thought about how to make up for it.

"Your Majesty, that's not what I meant." Shen Qingyan decided to turn the tables and looked even more aggrieved than him.

"I just can't bear to see the emperor being bothered by those ministers. Besides, these eighteen sisters can keep me company if they enter the palace, right? This way, I won't be bored on weekdays."

After explaining, she put down her chopsticks aggrievedly and snorted, "Your Majesty is tired of me, right? Otherwise, why would you think of me like this?"

Gu Beihuai paused, became nervous subconsciously, and defended himself.

"Yan'er, that's not what I meant. I just don't want outsiders to disturb us. I misunderstood you."

Shen Qingyan still ignored him and turned her back.

She is best at acting.

Gu Beihuai was a little at a loss. He stood up and walked to Shen Qingyan's side to coax her in a gentle voice.

"I really know I was wrong. Yan'er, can you forgive me this time? I will punish myself by drinking three cups of pigeon soup to make amends for you, okay?"

Shen Qingyan burst out laughing when she heard that.

"Your Majesty, don't you like eating poultry? You'd better not drink this pigeon soup."

"No, I should punish you for making Yan'er angry."

Then pretend to drink.

Shen Qingyan smiled and tried to take the drink away from him, and the two of them started quarreling.

Considering that Shen Qingyan was pregnant, Gu Beihuai moved slowly, his eyes and heart were completely focused on her.

-

Listening to the noise inside, Su Peichang was very satisfied.

The Emperor and Concubine Zhao were truly a match made in heaven. He felt warm in his heart as he listened to their laughter.

Zhiyu saw his happy look and couldn't help teasing him.

"Oh, Eunuch Su, you look so happy?"

Su Peichang said as a matter of course: "If the master is happy, we servants will naturally be happy too. Aren't you happy?"

Zhiyu choked and secretly complained that he was indeed a cunning eunuch in the palace, and he had a skill in speaking.

When she turned her head, she saw Shuofeng standing on the other side, standing tall as a pine tree, with his eyes fixed straight ahead.

Zhiyu's face instantly flushed with a suspicious blush, and then she lowered her head slightly in embarrassment.

Su Peichang's mouth twitched, and he asked curiously: "Zhiyu, where did you learn this skill of changing faces? Why don't you teach us?"

Zhiyu glared at him and warned him in a low voice: "What nonsense are you talking about? How can I change my face..."

Although he was clearly talking to Su Peichang, his gaze seemed to be drawn away by the north wind and could not be taken back, not at all.

Su Peichang couldn't help laughing and shouted deliberately.

"Lord Shuofeng."

Shuofeng immediately turned his head and met Zhiyu's eyes.

Zhiyu's face turned even redder, and just as she was about to speak, Shufeng came over.

At this moment, her heart was about to jump out of her throat. She, who was always carefree, now had her heart beating like thunder and had no idea what to say.

However, Shuofeng stopped in front of Su Peichang and spoke in a serious tone.

"Eunuch Su, what's the matter?"

Su Peichang raised his eyebrows and glanced at Zhiyu with a smile.

"Lord Shuofeng, some people's eyes are glued to you. Did you see that?"

Shuofeng frowned, somewhat puzzled.

"Who?"

Su Peichang continued to signal with his eyes and followed suit with his mouth.

Shuo Feng's brows were furrowed tighter and tighter. "Eunuch Su, what happened to your eyes and mouth? Did you have a stroke? You must find an imperial physician to see him. Otherwise, how can you serve the emperor?"

Su Peichang was completely speechless, and waved his hands, saying, "Forget it, forget it. I can't make sense to you. Just pretend that I didn't say anything just now."

Shuo Feng was not willing to give in, and said in a very good-tempered manner: "Eunuch Su, do you really not need to see a doctor? I know a new doctor who is very skilled in medicine. Maybe he can cure your crooked mouth and squinting eyes..."

Su Peichang realized something was wrong. "Are you really stupid or are you just pretending to be stupid? Are you teasing me on purpose?"

Shuo Feng looked innocent, and his tone became more and more puzzled, "Eunuch Su, what are you talking about? I mean well."

Before Su Peichang could say something, Gu Beihuai's voice was heard from inside the room.

Gu Beihuai and Shen Qingyan had finished their dinner, and Su Peichang immediately took people to remove the remaining dishes.

Zhiyu looked at Shufeng with disappointment, as he had never even looked at her from beginning to end, and went in to serve Shen Qingyan.

Little did she know that her lonely appearance was clearly seen by Shufeng.

Shortly after dinner, Shen Qingyan wanted to go for a walk in the Imperial Garden as usual, but was stopped by Gu Beihuai.

"The Imperial Garden is windy and there are too many flowers. I get a headache after smelling the wind for too long."

Look, what a far-fetched reason.

First, Gu Beihuai didn't want to meet any messy people again, and second, the Imperial Garden was still under restoration, so all the roses, whether fresh or withered, were pulled out.

Shen Qingyan did not force it. Fortunately, Zhaohua Palace was big enough. Two walks here were enough to go to the Imperial Garden and back.

Take a walk, enjoy the flowers, enjoy the moon, take a bath, and sleep.

Gu Beihuai accompanied her throughout the whole process. In front of Shen Qingyan, he was gentle, considerate, patient and careful, which was completely different from his decisive and ruthless appearance in the court.

If the old officials in the court saw how Gu Beihuai was treated differently, their beards would probably stand on end with rage, and they would find fault with him and accuse him of being obsessed with beauty.

But today Gu Beihuai was in an especially good mood. When he was with Shen Qingyan, it seemed as if all his worries disappeared.

How nice it would be if such happy days could last forever.

Today is Zhiqing's night duty. After dark, Zhiyu hurried to his residence.

Unexpectedly, when she reached a rockery, a tall man suddenly appeared in front of her and blocked her way.

"Who is it?" Zhiyu took a step back and shouted.

Shuofeng quickly said, "It's me."

Zhiyu was slightly stunned, then secretly cursed the rockery for being in the way and almost causing her a disaster.

So she quietly put away the carefully polished stone that Hua Yan gave her, and her voice became eight degrees softer than before.

"Shuofeng, it's you, is there anything wrong?"

She said it with a blushing face.

Shufeng couldn't help but wonder if he had misheard her loud and heroic shout just now.

"Don't take to heart what Eunuch Su said today. I was afraid that it would damage your reputation, so I said that on purpose."

He is not smart enough, but he is not stupid. He had already seen through Su Peichang's obvious hints.

Zhiyu raised her eyes instantly, her eyes as bright as the dazzling stars in the sky.

"Really?"

"Yeah!" Shuofeng nodded.

Zhiyu was secretly delighted. It turned out that Shuofeng cared about her reputation and didn't want people to gossip about her. Did that mean that he...

Just when Zhiyu was gathering up the courage to take this opportunity to express his feelings, Shufeng said sternly, "I'm leaving first. If you have nothing else, go back to bed as soon as possible. You have to get up early tomorrow."

Seeing that he was about to leave, Zhiyu quickly called him, "It's getting dark, I'm a little scared, can you see me off?"
