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

It was night in a blink of an eye.

After the emperor finished his government affairs and had dinner, he ordered, "Li Changde, pass on my order and grant Concubine Rou the Shenlong Soup to bathe."

There are three hot springs in Xiaotangshan Palace. The Shenlong Hot Spring is for the emperor, the Jinfeng Hot Spring is for the empress, and the concubines can only take a bath in the Qingluan Hot Spring.

Even the Empress is not qualified to bathe in the Shenlong Hot Spring, but His Majesty has granted Concubine Rou this honor!

Although he had long witnessed the emperor's favor for Concubine Rou, Li Changde was still very shocked and it took him a moment to react.

"Yes!"

As for this being against the rules? Your Majesty is the biggest rule!

At this moment, a pleasant singing voice suddenly came from outside.

Among all the concubines in the harem, Concubine Sun had the most beautiful voice. Because the emperor liked her singing voice, he doted on her for a period of time.

Although this song was not as good as Sun Changzai's, it was also gentle and moving, as if it contained infinite affection. Most importantly, it was fresh.

Li Changde was about to send someone to scold him, "Don't disturb His Majesty's peace." Seeing Nangong Xuanyu's expression, he immediately changed his tone.

"Xiaotangshan Palace is indeed a place of outstanding people and good fortune. It actually hides a woman who is so good at singing. Your Majesty, do you need to send someone to call her over?"

Nangong Xuanyu raised his hand: "No need, I will go and see it myself."

The interception of favors happened frequently in the palace, and Li Changde was used to it. He did not expect that it also happened in the temporary palace. He just did not know which palace maid was so bold as to intercept the favors of Concubine Rou.

Under the bright moonlight, the beauty stood proudly in white clothes, with a cool and elegant temperament, like a fairy descending from the earth. The veil covered her face, adding a bit of mysterious beauty.

As the ethereal singing sounded, a rain of flowers suddenly fell from the sky. Petals flew and floated down, like a dream!

She danced with long sleeves, petals fluttering with her sleeves, bringing bursts of refreshing floral fragrance. Her agile dancing posture was like the rolling of clouds, which was indescribably cool, unworldly, beautiful and elegant!

In the dance of petals, her graceful figure is like the sparkling Milky Way under the moon, and like a fairy on water, so beautiful that she seems otherworldly!

At this moment, everyone was stunned!

Faced with such a beautiful dance, even the emperor's eyes were filled with undisguised amazement!

After the dance, the beauty's eyes moved, her body was graceful, and she bowed: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. Long live your Majesty!"

Hearing her self-proclaimed name, Nangong Xuanyu's eyes flashed with surprise. But there were so many women in the harem, and he couldn't recognize who this was just by her figure and voice.

"Which concubine are you and why are you in Xiaotangshan Palace?"

Liu Ruyan took off her veil at the right time, revealing a delicate and beautiful face. She said shyly, "The Queen is worried that the people below will not serve you well when you are in the palace, so she specially ordered me to come and accompany you..."

The empress is the queen and her time is running out, so the emperor will naturally not refuse her favor.

Moreover, the enchanting dance just now made the emperor unforgettable for a long time. It was difficult for a man to be cruel to such a delicate and beautiful woman.

As for this encounter and the petals flying all over the sky, what does it matter if it was Liu Ruyan's careful planning? For the emperor, he never cared about what methods the concubines used to win his favor, as long as they were willing to spend time on him and make him happy.

"My beloved, please get up."

Nangong Xuanyu took Liu Ruyan's hand and helped her up personally: "I haven't seen you for a while. Your dancing skills seem to have improved a lot."

"I am not strict with my subordinates, so it is reasonable for Your Majesty to be angry with me. So during this period of time, I have been reflecting on myself behind closed doors, hoping to do something to make Your Majesty happy."

"If my dancing can help Your Majesty relax for a moment during the busy political affairs, then I will die without regrets..."

Liu Ruyan had a pair of long willow-shaped eyebrows and a pair of watery eyes. She always looked timid and pitiful, and her weak appearance was enough to melt anyone's heart.

Nangong Xuanyu patted the back of her hand and softened his tone: "Let the past be the past, no need to mention it again."

Liu Ruyan understood that the matter of Concubine Kang's miscarriage and the emperor's anger towards her had been completely exposed!

"I obey your command..."

She lowered her head to hide the flash of pride in her eyes!

So what if Shen Zhinian is favored? With her beauty and means, it is impossible for His Majesty to completely forget about her.

After tonight, she will definitely regain favor!

She will take revenge on those who bullied her in the past one by one and trample them all under her feet!

Even if it was Shen Zhinian, she had to give up her position as the most favored concubine among the newcomers!

However... just when Liu Ruyan thought she had accomplished her mission and was about to accompany the emperor to bed, the emperor suddenly let go of her hand. His gaze on her face became subtle...

Liu Ruyan also felt her cheeks and body becoming more and more itchy, but in order not to ruin her image in the emperor's mind, she did not dare to reach out and scratch.

Li Changde was startled and quickly separated her from him: "Lady Liu, your face..."

Don’t tell me he’s been infected with some disease and that would be the end of you!

Liu Ruyan was so itchy that she couldn't help but scratch it: "My face? What's wrong with my face?!"

She looked completely different now from the detached Moon Palace fairy she was when she was dancing just now.

The emperor's feelings of love had disappeared without a trace: "Please ask the imperial physician to come and see what happened to Concubine Liu."

"Yes!"

When the emperor travels, he is naturally accompanied by an imperial physician, who arrived soon, along with Shen Zhinian.

"Your humble servant/concubine greets His Majesty!"

Nangong Xuanyu waved to the imperial physician and said, "Go and see Lady Liu."

"Wei Chen obeys!"

Shen Zhinian covered her mouth with a handkerchief, revealing just the right amount of surprise: "I received the decree from His Majesty and was about to go to Shenlong Tang. I heard that His Majesty summoned the imperial physician, and I was worried about His Majesty's health, so I hurried over."

"Why... why is Sister Liu here? Are you feeling unwell?"

Nangong Xuanyu didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Li Changde was very perceptive. "To reply to Concubine Rou, the Empress was worried that the servants could not serve Your Majesty well, so she sent Concubine Liu here. Concubine Liu suddenly had many rashes on her face, so she summoned the imperial physician."

Shen Zhinian nodded, her tone sad and aggrieved: "Your Majesty, did I do something wrong to displease the Queen? So just as we set out, the Queen sent Sister Liu over..."

These words were a subtle way of flattering Queen Jiang.

If Liu Ruyan gained the emperor's favor and made him very happy, the emperor would naturally not mind that Queen Jiang was reaching out so far.

But if Liu Ruyan failed to do so, the emperor would become somewhat dissatisfied with Queen Jiang's self-assertion.
