Quick Wear: After the charming host got pregnant, the boss spoiled her like crazy
Chapter 240: Cold-blooded and Domineering Emperor Without Heir x Delicate and Pregnant Concubine 32
The four words "token of love" reminded Shen Nian of something that she had long forgotten, but which had always existed like a poisonous sting.
That was the incident where the original body eloped with a poor scholar to escape the talent show.
Although this matter had long been suppressed by Prime Minister Shen, the scholar was also silenced.
But in the end, the original person did things without any scruples, and the elopement caused chaos in the Shen Mansion.
No matter how powerful Prime Minister Shen is in controlling his subordinates, he cannot shut everyone up and ensure that they don't say a single word.
To put it bluntly, if you want to investigate this matter, you will be able to find it if you put in some effort.
"Sister Jinxuan, I have roughly guessed what the Queen is going to do."
The queen wanted to forge this jade pendant as a token of love between herself and the scholar.
At that time, she only needs to reveal the matter in front of the Queen Mother and Ling Yu, and she will be severely punished for bringing shame to the royal family.
"You are really quick-witted. You guessed it so easily."
What Chen Jinxuan admires most in her life is people who are smart and scheming.
Shen Nian shook his head worriedly, "This matter is a bit tricky."
Shen Nian told Chen Jinxuan all about his guesses and the fact that his original body had eloped and been caught.
After listening to this, Chen Jinxuan silently gave her a thumbs up.
"You are still the most ruthless one."
She even dared to elope. She really admired Shen Nian's fearlessness of death.
Shen Nian wanted to cry but had no tears. She didn't want to be so cruel, but she had no choice because her original body was too bold and too obsessed with love.
"But don't be afraid. Didn't you say that this jade pendant was given to you by His Majesty? It's not really a token of love between you and that scholar."
Shen Nian nodded. She knew that what Chen Jinxuan said was true, but the existence of elopement was undoubtedly a time bomb that could explode at any time.
She must be more careful not to let the secret of this matter involve herself and the child.
Shen Nian took a deep breath. She knew that from now on, she had to be more cautious and more resourceful in order to gain a foothold in this harem.
"Sister Jinxuan, I want to use this jade pendant to set a trap for the queen.
We should just pretend that we don't know about this, and I need Su Xin to pass on a message to my father, asking him to secretly detain the servants in the mansion who have had contact with people in the palace recently."
She couldn't let these servants become witnesses when the Queen identified her.
"It's a small matter, don't worry.
Su Xin, come here."
Chen Jinxuan called Su Xin over and explained everything to her in detail together with Shen Nian.
Su Xin obeyed the order, and when the guards in the palace were replaced, she was helped out of the palace by Cheng Qing's men.
Shen Nian and Chen Jinxuan looked at Su Xin's departing back. Although they were still a little nervous, they also knew that as long as they were united, nothing was impossible.
"Sister Jinxuan," Shen Nian said softly, "No matter what the future holds, we must be strong."
Chen Jinxuan held Shen Nian's hand, her eyes full of determination. "Yes, Shen Nian. We will face it together."
The two smiled at each other, their hearts filled with hope and determination for the future. They knew that as long as they were united, nothing was impossible.
……
Su Xin held the token given by Shen Nian in her hand. She showed a corner of it to the doorman of the Shen Mansion.
The doorman of the Shen Mansion's expression changed slightly. He opened a corner door and walked towards the mansion towards Su Xin.
The doorman brought Su Xin to Prime Minister Shen's study, reported to him, and then turned and left.
Su Xin had just waited for a while when the study door was opened from the inside and a man who looked like a servant came out.
"Come in girl."
When Su Xin entered, Prime Minister Shen was practicing calligraphy in the study.
"I greet the Prime Minister."
…………
Su Xin held the note given to her by Prime Minister Shen in her hand, with densely written small words on it.
She carefully put the note away, turned around and blended into the crowd.
Shen Nian and Chen Jinxuan were waiting anxiously in the palace. Time passed by, and finally, there was a slight sound of footsteps outside the door.
Su Xin pushed open the door and walked into the room, with a hint of nervousness in her eyes.
"How is it?" Shen Nian asked hurriedly.
Su Xin breathed softly, “Miss, according to your instructions, the master has detained all the servants who had contact with the palace.
Now we just have to wait and see what the Queen will do."
Shen Nian nodded, feeling a little relieved. But she knew that this was just the beginning, and there would be more challenges waiting for them.
At the same time, in the Queen's palace, a maid was quietly handing a jade pendant to the Queen.
The queen looked at the jade pendant in her hand, a sinister smile forming on her lips.
She thought her plan was perfect, but she didn't know she had fallen into the trap set by Shen Nian...
……
The next day, Chen Jinxuan came to Zhaohua Palace to find Shen Nian as usual, but happened to meet Ling Yu halfway.
Chen Jinxuan was still a little scared of the Emperor.
"I have met your Majesty."
As long as she stays in the palace, she still has to maintain her appearance and perform the duties of a concubine to Ling Yu.
Ling Yu sat on the sedan chair and looked down at her, "Have you been to Zhaohua Palace too many times recently?"
There was a hint of displeasure in his tone, as if he was dissatisfied with Chen Jinxuan's frequent appearances in Zhaohua Palace.
Every time he came back to see Shen Nian, he would run into Chen Jinxuan eight out of ten times.
And every time Chen Jinxuan came to see Shen Nian, Shen Nian would find ways to get him away.
Because of this, he didn't know how long it had been since he touched Shen Nian's finger.
"Are you here to go against me on purpose?"
Chen Jinxuan was shocked and her face became even more bitter.
"Your Majesty, you are wronged. I just like Sister Qingpin's tightness, so I ran more frequently.
Even if I had a hundred guts, I would not dare to go against you."
After all, her entire wealth and life are in Ling Yu's hands.
"In that case, please change your route, Your Majesty."
There are some things that Ling Yu cannot say as an emperor.
Then it would be natural for Wang Dequan to step in and persuade Chen Jinxuan to leave.
Chen Jinxuan took three deep breaths, considered the difference in status between herself and Ling Yu, and finally gave in very spinelessly.
"Your Majesty, I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do, so I will take my leave now."
Chen Jinxuan turned a corner with tears in her eyes, and headed for the Imperial Garden instead of the direction of Zhaohua Palace.
In the imperial garden, flowers were competing for beauty and the fragrance was wafting in the air. Chen Jinxuan randomly picked a pavilion and sat down.
Out of boredom, he caught a chrysanthemum and destroyed its poor petals.
"If Chen Jinxuan wants to bully a flower like this."
A man's gentle and pleasant voice came from behind. Chen Jinxuan turned her head hurriedly and happened to meet Cheng Qing's eyes with a smile.
In an instant, Chen Jinxuan's face turned completely red.
"Cheng...Cheng Qing, why are you here?"
When Chen Jinxuan suddenly saw Cheng Qing, she was so nervous that she almost stuttered.
"I came here, of course, to see you."
Cheng Qing replied gracefully.
His eyes were full of honesty and tenderness.
A complex emotion surged in Chen Jinxuan's heart. She knew that Cheng Qing had a special identity and his appearance might bring her trouble.
But she also understood that Cheng Qing's appearance might be a rare comfort for her in this palace.
"Cheng Qing, you... aren't you afraid of being seen?" There was a hint of worry in Chen Jinxuan's voice. She didn't want to put Cheng Qing in danger because of her.
Cheng Qing smiled slightly, his eyes were firm: "I'm not afraid, I just want to see you.
I know it's not easy for you here, and I want you to know that I will always support you no matter what happens."
Chen Jinxuan's eyes flashed with emotion. She knew that Cheng Qing's words were not empty talk. His appearance gave her strength. She took a deep breath and decided not to escape anymore: "Cheng Qing, thank you.
I will remember your words and I will be strong."
Although the two did not say much to each other in the pavilion of the Imperial Garden, the eye contact between them was worth more than a thousand words.
Chen Jinxuan knew that she could not let this feeling affect her judgment and actions, but she also understood that Cheng Qing's appearance gave her the courage to move forward in this cold palace.
