Refusing to let love take a back seat, the scumbag emperor actually seeks favor every day

"My queen! You are finally awake!"

When Su Manman woke up, she saw the ceiling of the bed. She was a little slow to react until she heard the scream of Hongzhi, the palace maid who was standing by the side. She suddenly remembered what had happened and sat up in shock.

"Child...it..."

As she spoke, she subconsciously reached out to touch her belly.

The baby is still young and not yet obvious, so I can't feel it.

Just by seeing Hongzhi's red eyes and the look of wanting to say something but stopping herself, she had already guessed the result.

She had high hopes for this unborn child, but unexpectedly, when Hongzhi confirmed that it had left her.

She was not as sad as she thought, and even couldn't help laughing at herself in her heart: I can't keep what I stole...

"Don't be too sad, your majesty. The little prince and princess just forgot to bring gifts to see you. They are going back now and will come to see you again soon."

Hongzhi, who had already made all kinds of preparations to comfort her, became even more worried when she saw that she was unexpectedly quiet except for a moment of panic.

Su Manman knew that she was comforting herself, so she smiled bitterly and said nothing.

After being married to Zhao Chengyuan for many years without having any children, she always thought it was because of her poor health.

In the past, Empress Dowager Su often asked the imperial physician to prescribe medicine for her treatment, but in fact the imperial physician always said that there was nothing wrong with her health.

She once suspected that it was Zhao Chengyuan's problem.

He has been emperor for many years and has countless concubines in his harem, but he still has no children.

Empress Dowager Su also asked the imperial physician to examine him, and the conclusion reached was that he was also very healthy.

She couldn't figure out the reason until the last time in the imperial study, when Zhao Chengyuan subconsciously coaxed her to eat a small sugar pill in a daze.

When he was sober, he would feed her himself every time afterward.

She was still in love at the time, but later it was just a pleasure between the two of them.

But as in the imperial study, Zhao Chengyuan probably didn't bring the food with him, so she didn't get to eat it. He also fell asleep quickly and didn't think about it afterwards.

Now that I think about it, it just so happened that she got pregnant this time.

Only now did she realize that what Zhao Chengyuan had been feeding her was a pregnancy drug.

She thought he really hated her, so he didn't want her to have a child.

If it weren't for that accident, she would never have been pregnant.

Now that the child is gone, it is just what he wants. How could he let her have another one?

Hongzhi didn't know the reason, and seeing that she didn't say anything, she just thought she was sad.

Hongzhi, who usually didn't dare to say much, didn't dare to tell others at this moment that she might get pregnant again in the future.

When Zhao Chengyuan came earlier, he specifically told her not to tell her about this.

Not long after Su Manman woke up, Zhao Chengyuan, who had received the news, rushed to Fengwu Palace and asked her with a worried look on her face if she was feeling unwell.

Lying on the bed, Su Manman looked at him and felt even more bitter at this moment, as he was even more affectionate than when he knew she was pregnant.

But she was not in the mood to argue with him at the moment.

In response to his greeting, I just responded briefly.

Zhao Chengyuan just thought she had just lost her child and was in a bad mood, so he didn't care about her cold attitude.

After a moment's silence, Su Manman, who was staring at the ceiling of the bed, suddenly spoke in a calm tone.

"Zhao Chengyuan, let's get divorced."

Zhao Chengyuan didn't expect her to say such words at this time, and was stunned.

It took him a while to react.

"The last time I said I would depose the queen, I was just angry. I have already been taught a lesson by my mother. Please don't take it to heart, okay? I will make it up to you."

He felt that his previous words must have hurt her feelings.

Now I have a huge regret.

Su Manman listened to his words and turned her gaze from the ceiling to him.

After looking at him for a long while, Zhao Chengyuan felt guilty, so he spoke seriously.

"Zhao Chengyuan, stop lying to yourself. You don't love me. If it weren't for the fact that the Imperial Master said I was born to be a phoenix, and the marriage arranged by the late emperor, I would never have been the one who should have been your queen. I'm tired of this kind of life where someone else is occupying your nest."

Su Manman's voice was slow, calm, and firm.

"Now that the child is gone, it's time for us to break up."

"No, Manman, listen to me. I just... I just don't know how to get along with you. I don't mean to be cold to you. You know, my personality makes it difficult for me to get close to people."

In the past, Zhao Chengyuan would never say such a thing.

But he realized that if he really treated the same as before, Su Manman would really leave him.

He panicked.

Su Manman certainly knew that because of his status since childhood, his personality had always been more sensitive, steady and cold than other princes and princesses.

So she had always taken the initiative to please him and let him know that she was on his side, even though others thought that she was a humble and love-minded queen.

But she never got his approval and often showed impatience.

She could still endure it in the past, but after going through so many things, she finally understood.

As long as she is willing to endure hardships, she will have endless hardships to endure.

She is not a mean person. She should let others suffer the consequences.

When Zhao Chengyuan said the words "start over", she gave a forced smile.

"It's said in the book that belated love is cheaper than grass. I don't want to start over again!"

As soon as she said this, Zhao Chengyuan's face froze.

"If you don't agree to a divorce, I will choose an auspicious day and hang myself!"

Zhao Chengyuan's face turned from stiff to dark when he heard her outrageous words.

After a long while, he gnashed his teeth and said angrily, "If you dare to commit suicide, I will make everyone around you buried with you!"

This threat did not have much effect on Su Manman.

There were originally few people who cared about her in the palace.

He couldn't let the Queen Mother and himself be buried with him...

wrong.

There is another person who is quite important.

When she woke up, she always felt that there was someone missing beside her. She looked left and right and finally realized what was going on.

She was so sad that she didn't notice that Qiu Ye, who always appeared by her side at the first opportunity, was gone.

"Akiha! Akiha!"

He didn't care that Zhao Chengyuan was still there and started calling out names anxiously.

"Queen, what's wrong?"

The one who came in after hearing the sound was Hongzhi.

"Where's Qiuye? Call Qiuye over!"

"Sister Qiuye..."

When Hongzhi heard that she was looking for Qiuye, she looked at Zhao Chengyuan cautiously with an embarrassed expression.

Seeing her hesitating, Su Manman realized something and grabbed Zhao Chengyuan anxiously.

"What did you do to Qiuye!"

Zhao Chengyuan felt even worse when he saw that she cared more about a servant than himself.

"Why? The Queen wants to protect the maid who plotted to murder the heir to the throne?"

"You fart!"

Su Manman was anxious. Once Qiu Ye was convicted of murdering the royal heir, he would surely be put to death.

But she knew very well that Qiu Ye just wanted to protect her and did not intend to push her.

She had already lost her own child, and she absolutely could not lose Qiu Ye, the only person in the palace who was truly kind to her and who grew up with her.

"Where's Qiu Ye! I want to see her!"

She had been in a coma for a day and a night and had no idea how Qiu Ye was doing now.

She was afraid that Zhao Chengyuan had already done something harmful to her, so she stood up with her still weak body and was about to go find her, but she wouldn't listen no matter how much she tried to persuade him.

"Lie back down! If you mess around again, I'll kill her right now!"

Zhao Chengyuan was angry and Su Manman was quiet.

When she learned that Qiu Ye was still there, she finally felt relieved.

"Scumbag emperor! If you dare to hurt Qiu Ye, I will kill the emperor!"

"If you dare to disobey me again, I will definitely be the scumbag emperor!"
