Quick Wear: After the charming host got pregnant, the boss spoiled her like crazy

Cheng Qing also knew in his heart that His Majesty sent him to the Zhao Mansion on a rainy night to look for the account books in order to verify his loyalty once again.

He knew that he couldn't hide the matter of Chen Jinxuan from His Majesty.

No matter whether it is the harem or the previous dynasty, as long as His Majesty wants, there is nothing he cannot find out.

It's just that the word "love" has touched people's hearts since ancient times, otherwise he would not have concealed the truth from His Majesty because of the deep feelings he had for Chen Jinxuan.

Ling Yu held the account book and put it into his sleeve.

"Go back to the palace."

Wang Dequan and Cheng Qing agreed, and Ling Yu got on the carriage. Cheng Qing led the imperial guards to escort him.

There was silence along the way, only the sound of rolling wheels.

Cheng Qing was feeling uneasy, he didn't know how Ling Yu would deal with him.

The carriage slowly drove into the palace, and Cheng Qing followed Ling Yu to meet the emperor. In the palace, Ling Yu sat on the dragon throne, looking at Cheng Qing with cold eyes.

"Cheng Qing, do you admit your guilt?" Ling Yu's voice was as cold as ice. Cheng Qing knelt on the ground, "I know my guilt, and I shouldn't have concealed it from Your Majesty."

Ling Yu frowned slightly, "Since you know your crime, you should know the consequences. Considering that this is your first offense, I will forgive you for now, but if you do it again, I will not let you off easily."

Cheng Qing kowtowed and thanked him, "Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for your grace."

Cheng Qing knelt upright in the hall. Your Majesty was his monarch, and he had felt guilty towards his monarch because of love.

But after this night, he will completely cut off his feelings and be loyal to his king from now on.

"Cheng Qing, I know that you and Concubine De have a deep bond. I am not a foolish ruler, and I know the importance of the one you love.

In this case, I will grant you a marriage with Concubine De, okay?"

The emperor on the high throne spoke in a solemn voice, there was no way he was joking.

Cheng Qing straightened his back for a moment and looked up in disbelief.

"Your Majesty, minister..."

How could he open his mouth?

The king shall give his woman to him.

Even though that had been his obsession for many years, he dared not forget his duty as a subject.

"If you are willing, I will fake the death of Concubine De and arrange a marriage for you two.

If you don’t want to, just pretend I never said it.”

Cheng Qing felt mixed emotions. He had never thought that there would be such a gift. The relationship between him and Concubine De had always been a pain in his heart and a guilt for him as a minister.

He kowtowed deeply, his voice trembling:

"Your Majesty, I...I am willing."

His voice was small but full of determination.

The emperor on the high throne nodded slightly. He knew Cheng Qing's loyalty and also knew his pain.

"Cheng Qing, I know your heart, and I believe you can handle this."

Cheng Qing raised his head, tears flashing in his eyes. He took a deep breath and said:

"Your Majesty, I will live up to your expectations and will treat Concubine De well and make her happy."

The emperor smiled and said:

"Okay, I believe you. I will arrange everything, you just need to wait patiently."

Cheng Qing kowtowed again, his heart filled with gratitude.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."

He stood up, his heart filled with determination.

He knew that from now on, he would no longer have any selfish thoughts, he would be loyal to his king wholeheartedly, and he would also treat his lover wholeheartedly.

After Cheng Qing kowtowed to express his gratitude, he slowly left the palace.

He looked up at the bright moon in the sky, feeling filled with emotion.

Your Majesty not only trusts him with important positions, but also shows his appreciation for his talents. He will dedicate his entire life to Your Majesty and the Jing Dynasty.

Ling Yu's move was naturally intended to take advantage of her.

Cheng Qing is a good sword. If Cheng Qing, this sharp blade, harbors resentment because of a woman, it will be a loss for the entire Jing Dynasty.

The way of an emperor is to respect the wise and humble himself and to manipulate people's hearts.

After this incident, Cheng Qing will be completely devoted and loyal to him.

……

The morning sun shone through the mist and fell on the ground. The rain stopped, the sky was bright, and the whole imperial city was bathed in the golden sun, looking particularly peaceful and tranquil.

The glazed tiles on the palace walls sparkled in the sunlight, and the trees inside the palace walls looked even greener after being washed by rain.

The palace maids and eunuchs began to get busy, cleaning up the puddles in the courtyard and tidying up the flowers and plants that were wet by the rain.

The Queen has been released from house arrest, and all the concubines in the palace have had three days to rest. Today, they went to Huayang Palace to pay their respects to the Queen according to etiquette.

Shen Nian and Defei walked side by side on the palace road. They strolled on the road and enjoyed the fresh air after the rain.

"Last night the Queen sent me a lot of jade articles."

Shen Nian and Chen Jinxuan were chatting casually. As they were talking, Shen Nian remembered this matter and told her about it.

Their dresses swayed gently with their steps, and their conversations echoed in the morning air, sounding particularly clear.

"You didn't touch those jades, did you?"

The queen has many tricks up her sleeve, all of which are endless. She can do things like applying poison on jade and using incense.

"No, I just asked the bamboo to be put away. But I always feel that there is something strange, but when I think about it carefully, I can't tell what is strange."

Given the relationship between the Queen and her, wouldn't the Queen have guessed that she would never touch the things she gave her?

Since I know she won't touch them, why bother sending these things to her?

Was it just to disgust her? Shen Nian didn't believe this reason.

"It doesn't matter. Just say hello today. We'll know after we give it a try."

Shen Nian nodded, she already had a plan in mind.

The Queen can do whatever she wants, it's just a matter of trying to counter her moves.

Shen Nian and Defei came to Huayang Palace with the other concubines. The atmosphere in the palace was solemn and dignified, as if every inch of the air was filled with the majesty of the queen.

The queen sat in the main seat, her eyes sweeping over each concubine as if examining them, finally stopping on Shen Nian and Concubine De.

"Queen, may you be blessed and safe."

The concubines spoke in unison, their voices carrying a hint of respect and a hint of nervousness.

The queen smiled slightly, her voice carrying a hint of majesty, yet still retaining the queen's demeanor. "Get up, pay your respects today, I have a few words to say."

The concubines stood up one after another, their eyes full of anticipation and a hint of uneasiness.

They knew that every word the queen said could affect their fate.

The queen looked around, and her eyes finally fell on Shen Nian and Defei.

"Shen Nian, Concubine De, how are you two doing recently?"

I haven't seen you for three days, but you are already prepared for my revenge.

"Thanks to your majesty, I am doing fine, even a little fatter. Why do you seem to be thinner?

All the affairs of the harem still depend on you, so you must take care of yourself."

There was something ambiguous in Defei's answer, which made the Queen so angry that she almost couldn't maintain the false gentle appearance.

The queen sneered in her heart, but remained calm on her face, saying, "De Fei, you are good at talking. However, I have my own imperial physician to take care of my health, so you don't have to worry."

"I am very pleased that you two care about me so much."

There was a subtle hint of sarcasm in the Queen's voice, "However, I am in good health, you don't have to worry.

You should remember your duties and not do anything that would disappoint me."

"My queen taught me that."

Shen Nian and the others did not confront her head-on. The Queen scolded Concubine De and Shen Nian, but contrary to her usual practice, she did not make things difficult for them.

He sent all the concubines back early on the pretext of being tired.

As soon as they left, a man holding a drawing paper walked out from behind the screen in the hall.

He handed the drawing paper to the queen. The queen glanced at it and asked Qingle beside her.

"Is he drawing it correctly?"

Qingle nodded, "It is exactly the same as what I saw on Concubine Qing's waist yesterday."

"In that case, order someone to quickly make an identical jade pendant."

"Yes."

Qingle led the painter downstairs and handed the drawing paper to the craftsman in the Treasure Forging Workshop.

Su Xin secretly followed Qing Le and witnessed it all.
