Wearing a book, hooking him up

After Jun Zechen returned to the Qianqing Palace from the Imperial Garden, he sat alone on the couch, lost in thought.

His mind uncontrollably began to pop up images of Yaoyao's charming and lovely appearance when she used to act coquettishly with him. The agility and playfulness in her eyes seemed to be still vivid in his mind.

Afterwards, the images of him making her sad time and time again came flooding back like a tide.

When she was pregnant with Xingxing, she saved Ling Yue at the risk of her own life and had a miscarriage.

He was heartbroken because Ling broke her promise on her birthday, which made her drunk and unable to sleep that night.

When she had a miscarriage, he did not punish Ling severely, but she did not complain at all. She compromised for him and just endured everything silently.

On the day of the Flower Festival, he went to visit Concubine Ling and once again made her angry and disappointed.

There was also Concubine Ye's frame-up. Although it was a frame-up, it caused a rift between him and Yaoyao. It was also the first time that Yaoyao and him were in a cold war for a whole month.

The long time seemed to have created a deep gap between them.

This time...

Jun Zechen's brows were tightly furrowed. How could he not feel that Yaoyao seemed to be slowly withdrawing her care for him, just as she said during the last cold war.

He murmured, "Love is voluntary, and there is no regret after it is done."

When Jun Zechen saw these words, he was shocked. She was still as free and easy as when they first met.

When she first entered the East Palace and knew that he only had Ling Yue in his heart, she was able to resolutely draw a line and just be herself.

Later, when he told her honestly that he liked her, she responded with the same love, bravely and purely.

When she knew that he did not have "love" for her in his heart, she could decisively withdraw her "love".

He was able to control himself so freely and so thoroughly that even Jun Zechen himself could not do it. He was the kind of overbearing person who believed that "if I let the world down, the world cannot let me down".

Will she still cry secretly these days like she used to?

She once said that tears are only valuable when shed in front of people who care about her.

Jun Zechen sighed deeply, wondering if he was not good enough to her.

"Don't talk about debts, don't let down the encounters."

Why does Jun Zechen feel that he owes her so much now?

It was he who forced her to put her heart on him when they were in the Eastern Palace, and it was he who made promises again and again after he ascended the throne, just to get her heart as pure as glass.

However, when Yaoyao put her heart in front of him, he did things that disappointed and saddened her one after another.

Jun Zechen unconsciously turned the ring on his hand.

He summoned Concubine Shu to his palace every day these days. Maybe he wanted Yaoyao to let go of her worries as usual, or maybe Jun Zechen himself couldn't let go of the majesty of the emperor.

He couldn't explain what he was thinking, but the annoyance and regret in his heart became more and more intense, making him feel a little overwhelmed.

Jun Zechen's thoughts gradually drifted back to the scene in the west hall yesterday.

He didn't want Yaoyao to have such a big impact on his emotions, so he couldn't help but ask himself in his heart, does he really have to have her?

He tried to get close to Concubine Shu, but when he got close to her, he felt inexplicably irritated. The irritation surged in his heart and even made him feel disgusted.

Looking at Concubine Shu's timid appearance, his mind couldn't help but emerge with the scenes of him and Yaoyao together in the past.

The two of them liked each other and were entangled with each other wantonly, so passionately and so devotedly.

They are like mandarin ducks embracing each other, full of passionate emotions, loving and attached to each other.

Instead of being like these women in the harem, they seemed to be just his responsibility and tasks that he had to complete.

Thinking of this, Jun Zechen clenched his fists, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged slightly.

In the end, he couldn't force himself to leave, so he put on his robe, made up an excuse, and left in a hurry.

Only Concubine Shu was left alone in the west hall, looking so lonely and helpless.

Jun Zechen left the west hall with a slightly unsteady step. His heart seemed to have lost its direction at this moment, becoming confused and hesitant.

Zhaochun Palace.

"master."

Miaoyun had a smug look on her face.

"Yurong followed the master's instructions to instigate Lin Fei. Now Lin Fei has completely regarded Shu Fei as her enemy."

"And I followed your instructions and told Concubine Lin about your pregnancy."

As Miaoyun spoke, the smile on her face deepened.

"And I asked Yurong to give advice to Concubine Lin, so that Concubine Lin could frame Concubine Shu and harm the heir in your belly. This way, Concubine Lin can achieve her goal of killing two birds with one stone."

"Princess Lin is very satisfied with this idea."

Miaoyun stood beside Su Jingyao, her face filled with joy, as if she had won a great victory.

After all, Concubine Lin has been jumping around in front of her master for so long and has done so many things to scheme against her master. Now that her master is finally going to take action to deal with her, she is naturally happy.

"Oh? Has Concubine Lin come up with any ideas to kill two birds with one stone?"

Su Jingyao was half-lying lazily on the couch, with one hand lightly resting on the armrest and the other hand holding a book. She was wearing a loose and comfortable dress, and looked lazy and casual.

She raised her eyebrows slightly, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

"Since the last time Your Majesty took her to appreciate chrysanthemums, Concubine Shu fell deeply in love with chrysanthemums and even ordered the flower house to cultivate various varieties of chrysanthemums."

Miaoyun paused for a moment when she spoke here, and then gestured with her eyes to the chrysanthemums on the table in the outer hall.

"Master, you see, the most common flowers in the flower room are chrysanthemums, especially chrysanthemums. Our Kunning Palace has also received a lot of them from the flower room."

Miaoyun said this while observing Su Jingyao's expression.

The master is the queen, so the greenhouse should send more peonies. Although peonies rarely bloom in winter, the greenhouse naturally has ways to cultivate them.

However, Concubine Shu is favored, and now the greenhouse is only concerned with Concubine Shu's needs. Naturally, there is no more energy to cultivate other flowers.

Miaoyun continued, "So Concubine Lin put a lot of effort into these chrysanthemums."

"Every pot of chrysanthemums sent to Kunning Palace was stained with musk. Concubine Lin was also smart. In order to prevent the smell of musk from being discovered, she used chrysanthemum tea to remove the smell and then sprinkled it on the chrysanthemums. As a result, the smell of musk really could not be smelled."

As Miaoyun spoke, the expression on her face became a little serious. Concubine Lin was really vicious. If she really succeeded, wouldn't the master and the young master be in danger?

After Su Jingyao heard this, her expression did not change at all.

Concubine Lin was indeed a little clever. If she had not been in a high position after entering the palace, and had not carefully trained a lot of her own people along the way and placed them in various palaces, she would not have been able to fully understand the calculations of these concubines.

After all, it was just a pot of flowers. Did she have to go to great lengths to check every pot?

Miaoyun continued, "But rest assured, my master. The chrysanthemums now placed in the hall have been completely cleaned by Doctor Jin with medicine. They will not have any effect on you and the heir to the throne."

Miaoyun's eyes were full of determination.

"Doctor Jin said that in order to prevent the musk from being discovered, Concubine Lin did not put too much on the chrysanthemum. In order to prevent you from having a miscarriage inadvertently, Concubine Lin has been sprinkling musk on the chrysanthemum every day these days."

"Master, if you continue to 'absorb' for three more days, it will explode."

The corners of Su Jingyao's mouth curled up into a slight smile, showing the pride that everything was under control.

Three days later, she will find a way to let Doctor Li "go home". Now, with her support, Doctor Jin has become a gynecological expert in the Imperial Hospital and has a high status.

As long as Imperial Physician Li was not in the Imperial Hospital, Imperial Physician Jin would come to treat her.

At that time, she would naturally have whatever symptoms she wanted.

Miaoyun suddenly thought of something, frowned, and asked again: "Master, since the last time I met His Majesty in the Imperial Garden, His Majesty's attitude towards you has softened a lot. Recently, he has been sending things to Kunning Palace."

"Moreover, His Majesty has asked Anshun to ask me many times whether the master is willing to see His Majesty." Miaoyun said while observing the master's expression.

Miaoyun felt that His Majesty had changed a lot for the master. This time the master deliberately ignored His Majesty, and His Majesty had been constantly trying to please the master.

So Miaoyun is still satisfied with Your Majesty's recent behavior.

Su Jingyao frowned slightly, not knowing what had suddenly happened to Jun Zechen.

She originally thought that she and Jun Zechen reconciled this time because Jun Zechen regretted his decision after she deliberately caused the miscarriage.

But unexpectedly, Jun Zechen actually convinced himself this time.

But now that he has repented, should she accept it?

Her plan had been prepared long ago, but Jun Zechen did not play by the rules and almost disrupted her plan. Naturally, she couldn't pay attention to him now.

The arranged plot has not yet been completed. How can it be unforgettable if it is too easy to forgive? Only when you truly experience "loss" will you know what is precious.

"It's only a few days away. Just wait until I finish my performance." Su Jingyao said in a flat tone.

Why was the flower room willing to allocate so much manpower to cultivate chrysanthemums? It was because Concubine Shu asked Jun Zechen for it, and Jun Zechen agreed to Concubine Shu's request to let the people in the flower room devote all their efforts to cultivating chrysanthemums.

If three days later, Jun Zechen found out that the chrysanthemums he personally ordered to be cultivated almost caused her miscarriage, I wonder how he would feel?

Su Jingyao is not only cruel to herself, but also to others.

As Jun Zechen is the emperor, he will not obey unless he is severely tortured.
