Time Travel: The actress's acting skills exploded, and she was favored by the harem
Chapter 42: Still acting nice after getting an advantage
"Your Majesty is absolutely right. I admit my mistake. It is true that I was too impulsive, but I really do not regret it! What I do not regret is not the fact that I acted like a spoiled child with Your Majesty, but that I must truly express my inner feelings to Your Majesty. I do not want Your Majesty to be suspicious. I want Your Majesty to understand me and see the real me." Shen Zhiyao said seriously.
"So you are right?" Bo Muxi laughed secretly in his heart, but still asked seriously.
This little concubine made him love and hate her. He really wanted to blame her, but her sense of propriety was just right. He really liked the little concubine's temper of not wanting to suffer any loss.
In Bo Muxi's eyes, Shen Zhiyao was right. She was Bo Muxi's concubine, and was personally conferred the title of Jin Cairen by him. She was the first woman to enjoy his title, and she should not be poisoned or plotted against by others.
Bo Muxi pretended to be confused and tried to smooth things over, but Shen Zhiyao dared to speak up for herself and took just the right actions.
Bo Muxi now felt that Shen Zhiyao's clear-cut character of love and hate not only did not make him angry, but made him admire her very much.
No wonder even the shrewd and thoughtful queen would appreciate and value Shen Zhiyao so much. On the surface, it seemed that the queen was partial to Shen Zhiyao and giving her face.
In fact, many of the things Shen Zhiyao did were also giving the Queen a legitimate reason to weaken dissidents. There was more mutual achievement between them, and it was a win-win situation. Who could not like such a person?
"Your Majesty, please calm down. I know I was wrong and I admit it. I shouldn't be so willful and ignore Your Majesty's feelings. I will accept your punishment, as long as Your Majesty doesn't ignore me!" Shen Zhiyao's strategy towards the emperor was to never fight to the end and to stop when she saw an advantage.
But Shen Zhiyao was thinking in her heart that although she admitted her mistake straightforwardly, if the emperor did it again, she would dare to do it again!
Shen Zhiyao's hair was messy in Bo Muxi's arms, but she remained elegant. Instead, she added a lazy and charming temperament, which made Bo Muxi feel fresh and exciting. He couldn't take his eyes off her and couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
Lin En quietly observed from the side and sighed: "This is really something I have never seen before... I have never seen a concubine dare to be so bold, and she must be a talented person!"
"You're such a silver-tongued person." Bo Muxi gently tapped Shen Zhiyao's nose with his fingertips and scolded softly.
Shen Zhiyao acted embarrassed in a perfect way, which made Bo Muxi love her even more.
When I was being rude to him before, I was fearless, but now I feel embarrassed? Bo Muxi was speechless.
Shen Zhiyao acted like a spoiled child, rubbing against the emperor's arms again and again, acting like a little girl, and she didn't want to talk to him about anything!
"Since Lady Jin has admitted her fault, I will not investigate this matter further. But the palace rules cannot be ignored. I intend to punish you severely. Do you accept it?" Bo Muxi deliberately said in a solemn voice.
"Your Majesty, please punish me. How dare I disobey?" Shen Zhiyao immediately put on a submissive attitude, but she felt very aggrieved.
"Are you feeling aggrieved now? When you were throwing tantrums at me, you were very arrogant!" Bo Muxi teased.
"Your Majesty...I have indeed realized my mistake, please stop pestering me...I am simply acting this way because I have never been bullied like that..." Shen Zhiyao said coquettishly.
To be honest, there were countless concubines in the harem who had been plotted against and poisoned. For most of the concubines, the emperor would have weighed the pros and cons, given them a general explanation, and let it go.
But when it comes to Shen Zhiyao, she insists on making a big deal out of it.
This could be considered acting, but the fact that Shen Zhiyao did it so openly was a noble attitude that could not be fooled.
Sometimes, it is not that the emperor likes to fool people, but that many concubines give the emperor the impression that they can be fooled at will. Therefore, Shen Zhiyao wants to give the emperor the impression that he cannot be fooled at will. It is important to develop a habit.
"I haven't told you how to punish you yet, but you are good at making excuses for yourself! Well, I will punish you... After you return to the palace, you must take time every month to practice riding and archery with me! It can be considered as cultivating your character." Bo Muxi smiled gently.
This was beyond Shen Zhiyao's expectations. For a moment, she couldn't even tell whether this was a punishment or a reward. After all, being able to accompany the emperor was a blessing that many concubines would wish for!
In the harem, the lightest punishment for a concubine who made a mistake was house arrest, salary fine, copying scriptures, etc. However, this was the first time that she was punished to accompany the emperor. It was obvious that the emperor was looking for a way out.
Shen Zhiyao thought that the arrogant Bo Muxi was very funny.
Shen Zhiyao has always believed in Cao Cao's philosophy of life: I would rather let the world down than let the world let me down.
As long as the emperor was willing to treat her well, there was no reason for her to embarrass him.
Shen Zhiyao hurriedly left the emperor's arms and knelt down to thank him: "I thank the emperor for his mercy. I have sincerely repented and will never dare to do it again..."
"Okay, my beloved concubine, please get up quickly. I won't blame you!" After saying that, Bo Muxiu reached out and personally helped Shen Zhiyao up.
Lin En, who was standing by, was sweating coldly at this moment. He thought to himself, "The emperor is being manipulated by this unpredictable Consort Jin. It's really scary! It seems that it's easy to offend anyone in the harem, but if you offend Consort Jin, it will be really bad. You really have to be more careful in the future!"
At this time, Bo Muxi was very angry with Shen Zhiyao, so he naturally wouldn't really care about her. It didn't matter whether Shen Zhiyao was sincere in correcting herself or pretending to do so. As long as she could do it properly and arouse his interest, it would be fine.
Bo Muxi thought that he was just doing it for fun and had no idea how important Shen Zhiyao was in his heart. Or rather, he didn't understand because he had never truly loved anyone.
Bo Muxi chuckled, then interlocked his fingers with Shen Zhiyao and walked towards Mingxin Pavilion.
"Your Majesty, let's make it clear now. I already know I was wrong, and I am willing to accept the punishment. Your Majesty, please don't pursue this matter any further. Please give me some face, okay?" Shen Zhiyao said with her head down and blushing.
"My beloved concubine would still be embarrassed? This is really new. My concubine Jin is fearless. I wish my beloved concubine could be bolder so that I can see more of her grace!" As he spoke, Bo Muxi couldn't help but stretched out his hand and pinched Shen Zhiyao's chin.
"Your Majesty, you only know how to bully me. Your Majesty is so bad..." Shen Zhiyao threw herself into Bo Muxi's arms and said coquettishly.
"Okay, okay, in this harem, only you are so bold and disregard your manners. You are really too daring." Bo Muxi teased lovingly.
"Your Majesty, why are you so mean..." Shen Zhiyao buried her face in the emperor's chest and complained.
Shen Zhiyao's voice was soft and charming, with the seductiveness of a little girl. Bo Muxi couldn't help but feel that he had neglected her for more than a month. The servants in the harem were all snobbish. Perhaps she had really suffered. It was only right for him to comfort her now.
"Okay, I won't mention this matter again, and my beloved, please stop being petty with me." Bo Muxi said with a smile and couldn't help pinching her puffy cheeks.
"Well, Your Majesty is the ruler of a country. You and I should keep our promises. Let's forget about our previous unpleasantness." Shen Zhiyao said coquettishly.
Bo Muxi smiled and said, "Okay, I promise you."
At this point, the rift between Shen Zhiyao and the emperor has been temporarily eliminated, but the Shen family is still not out of trouble, and Shen Li is still under disguised house arrest.
If Shen Zhiyao wants to help Shen Li out of trouble, she needs to work harder! But how can things be so simple?
