Steal my marriage? Turn around and marry the tyrant to take the throne

Although the black charcoal does not burn as well as the silver charcoal, it can at least help Yilan Pavilion get through this difficult time.

Even if Concubine Liu knew about it, she wouldn't go looking for trouble with Concubine Liang just because of a little bit of charcoal.

After listening to Xiao Mingzi's story, Shen Zhinian shook his head and said, "Lady Kang still doesn't understand Liu Ruyan. If she can't be completely suppressed, Liu Ruyan will definitely take the opportunity to retaliate. You should keep a close eye on Yilan Pavilion recently to see what she will do."

"Yes! This time I will do my job well!"

Handan handed the prepared scented tea to Shen Zhinian and asked curiously, "My lady, do you think Concubine Liang is a good person? Now everyone in the palace knows that Concubine Liu has fallen out of favor, and it's good enough that they don't step on her. Only she came to her rescue."

Shen Zhinian recalled that in her previous life, there was no one in the palace who had not owed Concubine Liang a favor. Neither Liu Ruyan nor Concubine Liu Gui had ever made a move on her when they were fighting fiercely for the position of empress.

"It's too early to draw a conclusion. Maybe Concubine Liang is really a good person, or maybe she is the most cunning one. But if she is a fox, she will reveal her true colors after a long time."

"My lord, that's right."

evening.

After taking a bath, Shen Zhinian changed into a fleece top, lay in the soft quilt, and let out a sigh.

As winter approaches, the weather gets colder and colder.

Although she was favored, the silver charcoal sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs was sufficient to warm the entire bedroom, and there was no pungent smell of black charcoal. However, the bedroom became much drier and was not very comfortable to live in.

If you burn ground dragons, it will not only be warmer, but also more comfortable to live in. However, among the six palaces in the east and west, only the main position has ground dragons.

Shen Zhinian is now a noble lady, and is only one step away from becoming the mistress of a palace!

But there are so many noble ladies in the harem that even if she endures for seven or eight years, she may not be able to reach this level.

If she wants to be promoted to the position of concubine, she must give birth to an imperial heir.

Just as Shen Zhinian was thinking, the voices of the palace servants respectfully saluted suddenly rang out from outside: "Your servant/servant pays respect to His Majesty!"

She was startled and wanted to get out of bed to greet him after lifting the quilt, but was stopped by a big hand: "It's cold outside, no need to be polite. Go back to bed quickly, don't catch a cold."

Shen Zhinian looked up at Nangong Xuanyu, with a hint of surprise in her charming eyes: "Why did your Majesty come here at this time?"

During this period, when the emperor entered the harem, he either went to see Concubine Kang or Concubine Liu.

Only the rewards Li Changde sent from time to time reminded her that the emperor was always thinking of her.

Nangong Xuanyu didn't know why, but after not seeing this young girl for a while, her every frown and smile always appeared in his mind from time to time.

This situation has never happened before.

After reviewing the memorials tonight, it was already late, and he had no intention of entering the harem. But somehow, he ended up at Tingyu Pavilion.

Because she was getting ready to go to sleep, Shen Zhinian wore a white middle-length dress, which was clean and pure. She didn't look as charming as usual, but rather beautiful and attractive.

The emperor's restless heart seemed to calm down all of a sudden.

He sat down beside the bed and pinched Shen Zhinian's cheek. His tone was emotionless: "I haven't seen you for more than ten days. I thought my beloved concubine would miss me a lot."

"Who would have thought that when I came to Tingyu Pavilion, I would find that my beloved concubine was actually so contented. It seems that I was being too sentimental."

Shen Zhinian called out "Your Majesty" tenderly, leaned into his arms, and said angrily: "Your words really make me feel more wronged than Dou E..."

"When you were not here, I missed you every day, hoping that you would remember me someday. You don't know, when I saw you just now, I was so surprised that I didn't know what to say."

"It must be that God heard my prayers and allowed Your Majesty to come. I am so happy to be with you..."

Nangong Xuanyu finally understood why it is said that the land of beauties is the grave of heroes.

With a beauty like this lying in his arms, speaking sweet and affectionate words to him in a delicate voice, which man can resist?

Even if I know it's just sweet talk, I'm afraid I can't help but fall for it...

"Your little mouth is as sweet as honey every day, and you only know how to make me happy. If you really miss me so much, why haven't I seen you send food to the Yangxin Palace once?"

Shen Zhinian laughed twice in his heart.

Sometimes men just have a cheap mentality. The more they pursue a woman, the less they will cherish her. On the contrary, women who know how to be close yet distant and are not under their control can make them scratch their heads and can't stop.

Otherwise, why are there so many concubines in the harem who send gifts to the emperor every day just to ask for an audience, but he never takes them seriously and even finds them annoying?

Of course, Shen Zhinian would definitely not say what he really thought, but instead showed a distressed look.

"I have thought about this, but then I thought, there are so many things in the imperial court and the harem waiting for Your Majesty to deal with. If I disturb Your Majesty again in order to win your favor, wouldn't it make Your Majesty more worried?"

"It is precisely because I love Your Majesty so deeply that I hope Your Majesty can be happy every day."

"I will not be the one who troubles you. I will just wait for you silently behind your back. At any time, as long as Your Majesty turns around, Tingyu Pavilion will always be a place where you can relax. For me, that is enough..."

The emperor was already used to being cold and indifferent, but at this moment, a warm current surged in his long-hardened heart...

He hugged Shen Zhinian tightly in his arms and said with emotion: "The women in the harem all wish they could have more favors, but you are different from them. You are so sensible and considerate, and you think about me."

"I am the Son of Heaven. For the sake of the people, I never dare to relax for a moment. Only when I am with you can I feel this relaxed."

"Nian Nian, I am lucky to have you... You love me so deeply, I will never let you down!"

This was the first time the emperor addressed her so intimately.

Shen Zhinian knew that although Nangong Xuanyu's feelings for her had not yet reached the level of "love", at least he liked her.

Her road to winning hearts and minds has taken another big step forward!

"As long as I can stay with Your Majesty forever, I will be content..."

Before coming to Tingyu Pavilion, he just wanted to see her. But now, holding her in his arms and smelling the faint fragrance of gardenia on her body, the emperor's eyes gradually became deep.

"Nian Nian, it's getting late, you should go to bed early. I'll go take a shower first."

Shen Zhinian glared at him and said, "Your Majesty better really want to go to bed."

Nangong Xuanyu smiled happily: "Niannian, you will know in a moment..."

Shen Zhinian looked at his back and wrapped herself tightly in the quilt.

She would never put herself in a difficult position. In such cold weather, she was too lazy to help the emperor take a bath. It was so comfortable to just snuggle in the warm bed.
