Quickly wear the heartthrob: Peach Blossom Beauty Fululai

Chapter 123 The Emperor's Favored Concubine is Heartbroken (19)

From Shen Qingjiao, Ye Junchen felt for the first time how it felt like a romantic prince not being valued by women.

Just thinking about his plan to usurp the throne, that trace of resentment was suppressed again.

In fact, whether Shen Qingjiao really loves him wholeheartedly is not that important.

Now that she is favored by her royal brother, he should be even happier.

Only with her like this can the emperor let down his guard and facilitate the implementation of his plan.

At the dinner table, the three of them were chatting and laughing while enjoying the delicious food.

Suddenly, Ye Junhong changed the subject, with a mysterious smile, "Second Brother, General Huo has a girl he likes. Do you know which noble family she belongs to?"

"I don't know why my emperor said that." Ye Junhong was curious and wondered how his emperor knew about this.

Moreover, to be honest, he also wanted to know which noble lady had such great ability to make Huo Haochu fall in love with her.

Mentioning what happened before, Ye Junhong suddenly laughed, "Just now, I saw a peach blossom pattern sachet fall out of General Huo's arms."

Huo Haochu blushed and tried to argue, "Your Majesty, there is really nothing between me and her."

Faced with Huo Haochu's denial, Ye Junhong and Ye Junchen didn't believe a word of it.

Ye Junhong shook his head and laughed, "General Huo, don't hold on. I understand."

Ye Junchen next to him also spoke, with a hint of joking in his tone.

"General Huo, there is no need to hide it. You are now of marriageable age. It is not shameful. Besides, gentlemen love beautiful ladies. I am confident that you will be able to marry her."

Hearing this, Huo Haochu felt like crying but had no tears. Why didn't anyone believe him?

In his heart, he was completely alert and cautious towards that evil woman, and had no other thoughts at all.

Besides, a sachet couldn’t prove anything. He just thought it was useful and it would be a pity to throw it away, so he kept it.

night.

Before Ye Junhong went to visit the empress dowager, he first took a detour to Yongshou Palace.

Shen Qingjiao went out to greet him. As soon as they met, Ye Junhong couldn't help but praise her, "My beloved concubine's dishes are delicious. I am so full."

"Your Majesty must be trying to make me happy."

Shen Qingjiao glanced at him with a smile, her eyes sparkling with infinite charm.

"Little devil!" Ye Junhong cursed in his heart and swallowed hard.

He took a deep breath, tried to suppress the impulse in his heart, and said, "I am telling the truth. Besides, the Second Brother and General Huo both praised the taste of the food."

Only then did Shen Qingjiao feel relieved.

After thinking for a while, she continued, "I heard that the Queen Mother is not feeling well and has a poor appetite. I would like to prepare some food for her myself. I hope Your Majesty will allow me to do so."

Hearing this, Ye Junhong nodded repeatedly, his eyes full of admiration, "It is of course very good that my beloved concubine can be so filial to the Queen Mother. I agree."

Shen Qingjiao smiled and bowed slightly, saying, "I will cook the ingredients for the Queen Mother right away. Your Majesty, please wait a moment."

Ye Junhong readily agreed.

Within an incense stick of time, Shen Qingjiao had prepared the dishes and handed the food box to the eunuch Wang Mingqing.

Smelling the faint aroma coming from the food box, Ye Junhong was very happy and immediately rewarded Shen Qingjiao with a pile of golden melon seeds.

Looking at the golden reward, Shen Qingjiao's smile became more sincere.

Ye Junhong sat for a while before leaving Yongshou Palace and heading for the Empress Dowager's residence.

Holding the heavy bag of golden melon seeds, Shen Qingjiao was stunned for a while before putting the treasure in front of her into the cabinet and locking it.

Hehe, I will definitely have a sweet dream tonight.

That night, Huo Haochu patrolled to the gate of Yongshou Palace twice, but did not see Concubine Rou, and he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

After realizing this, his mind went blank and his muscles tensed.

He clearly knew that Concubine Rou was a witch, so why did he still think about her? What was wrong with him???

After being unable to come up with an answer for a long time, Huo Haochu was exhausted both physically and mentally.

After resigning from his post, he went straight home, washed up, and went to bed in his clothes.

After an unknown amount of time, Huo Haochu came to a strange place again.

White fog filled the surroundings, blocking the view.

He was a little anxious and was about to fly away when a breeze came from somewhere and blew away most of the fog around him.

After seeing the scene clearly, Huo Haochu suddenly felt something explode in his brain, and a dazzling white light appeared.

I saw Concubine Rou wearing a snow-white gauze dress as thin as a cicada's wing. Her slender waist was slightly bent. When she danced lightly, she was as brisk as a swallow in its nest, and when she flew high, she was as neat as a magpie startled at night.

The dance posture seems holy and celestial, but because of the woman's voluptuous curves faintly visible under the white veil, it adds a bit of debauchery and frivolity.

As her body jumped and moved, the boundless beauty was so enchanting that Huo Haochu couldn't take his eyes away. His lower abdomen was burning hot and his Adam's apple moved up and down unconsciously.

The strange emotions were surging and raging in his body, but he couldn't let them out, and he almost exploded and died.

At this critical moment, his body shook and he suddenly woke up.

Looking at the familiar layout in the room, Huo Haochu's mind slowly came back to him.

Just now, he met that witch in his dream again...

His big hands crumpled the quilt beneath him into a wrinkled ball, and a strong sense of powerlessness rose in his heart.

He was powerless to struggle against the deliberate seduction of the evil woman and could only indulge in it.

How could this happen? Where did the self-control that he was so proud of go?

The next day.

Emperor Ye Junhong paid his respects to the Empress Dowager.

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "I have tasted the yam, red dates, glutinous rice porridge and Luohan vegetarian food last night. They tasted very good. Did the palace have a new imperial chef?"

Su Biying, the head aunt who was serving beside her, added softly, "The Empress Dowager has lost her appetite recently and hasn't eaten much, but she almost finished the porridge and vegetarian dishes last night, which is really rare."

Ye Junhong looked at the empress dowager intently and found that her face was a little rosier than yesterday, and he immediately burst into laughter.

"Mother, last night's meal was made by Concubine Rou herself. She was the one who took the initiative to offer to cook for you." Ye Junhong said in a gentle voice.

There was a hint of surprise in the Queen Mother's eyes.

She also knew that when Concubine Rou entered the palace that day, she did not have a very good impression of that woman.

Although she was born in a humble family, she was given the title of Roupin by the emperor as an exception and was allowed to live in Yongshou Palace. She thought at the time that this woman must have used some seductive tricks to deceive the emperor's heart.

She never expected that a woman like that would cook for her and her cooking skills were so excellent.

The Queen Mother's impression of Concubine Rou changed instantly.

After all, a woman with such superb cooking skills can't have any bad intentions.

Thinking of this, the empress dowager was in a very good mood, and immediately ordered people to reward Concubine Rou with a pair of jade ruyi.

Yongshou Palace.

Shen Qingjiao was overjoyed to hear that the Queen Mother was very satisfied with her cooking skills.

The fact that the dishes she cooks are liked by so many people shows that her dishes suit the tastes of most people.

Then, she can proceed to the next step of her plan.

Shen Qingjiao called Xiao Zhongzi and asked him to find out what dishes Huo Haochu usually ordered when he went to a restaurant.

Xiao Zhongzi came back soon and told her all the news he had found out.

Shen Qingjiao understood and prepared a table full of sumptuous dishes according to Huo Haochu's preferences.

When Huo Haochu passed by Yongshou Palace, Shen Qingjiao called him in time, "General, please stay!"

Huo Haochu turned around and when he saw Shen Qingjiao, he was inexplicably reminded of the erotic dream he had last night.

The tips of his ears turned red and he almost ran away.

However, he quickly remembered the agreement he made with Concubine Rou yesterday, so he could only suppress the urge to flee and asked, "Is there something wrong, Madam?"
