The Emperor's uncle loves me! My paranoid wife, don't run away

During this period, the emperor rarely came to favor Concubine Chunhong.

Lady Chunhong sat alone in front of the dressing table, looking at her face in the mirror. The woman in the mirror had skin as white as cream, eyebrows and eyes as beautiful as paintings, and the corners of her eyes were slightly raised, revealing a charming and enchanting charm.

However, for some reason, she always felt that something had changed.

"Has there been some change in me?" She slid her fingers gently across her cheek, frowned slightly, and murmured, "Why hasn't His Majesty come to favor me recently?"

"Don't I look like her?"

Her voice was so low as if she was telling a secret to a mirror, and her eyes were as clear as a blue lake.

However, within a few seconds, his expression suddenly changed, and flames of anger burned in his watery eyes.

"It's all that bitch's fault!" She slammed the table so hard that the pearl hairpin in her hand fell to the ground.

"What a foxy woman!" She gritted her teeth, her red lips twitched, and uttered "Disgusting!" Then she spat fiercely, "Pah!"

Despite all the scolding, she was still beautiful in the mirror, and even had a fierce color because of the anger.

Concubine Chunhong stared at herself in the mirror, and her fingers slowly stroked her cheek again, as if to comfort herself, or as if to confirm whether this face still retained her reliance.

He raised his head slightly, with a complex look in his eyes, a mixture of fear and self-admiration.

"Without Your Majesty, how can I escape their control?" She murmured in a low voice, with a hint of helplessness and fear in her tone.

Just as she was lost in thought, there was a light knock on the door.

"My dear, the Sixth Prince's wife is here." The maid's voice came into her ears through the door, like a basin of cold water poured over her head, interrupting My dear Chunhong's thoughts.

She was stunned, her eyes trembled slightly, and then she raised her eyes and stared at the door.

"The Sixth Prince's Concubine..." She gritted her teeth, a hint of deep fear and disgust flashed across her eyes, and an ominous premonition rose in her heart.

She wanted to say "no", but when the words came to her lips, she forced herself to hold them back.

not the right time yet.

Noblewoman Chunhong closed her eyes and took a deep breath, as if to calm herself down. After a moment, she slowly said, "I know. I'll be there in a minute."

The maid outside the door responded respectfully: "Yes."

Hearing the maid's footsteps leaving, Concubine Chunhong's disgust became even more intense.

She knew that Ling Hui's coming was definitely not a good thing.

But she knew better that she had no way to escape, especially when facing Ling Hui, the woman who controlled her destiny.

Even though she is now the emperor's favorite concubine, living a glamorous and beautiful life, she can never escape her past.

Ling Hui and Ling Xun brought Chun Hong Guiren from Bei Ming Country. To the outside world, she was a wonderful woman presented to the emperor by Bei Ming Country, but only she knew that her true identity was a tool created by those people.

She stood up slowly, lowered her head and adjusted her clothes. The red gauze on her body dragged on the ground, outlining her graceful figure.

"I guess I'm going to do something dirty again this time?" she murmured softly.

After a moment, she pushed the door open and walked out.

……

Looking at the flowers all over the courtyard, Ling Hui's irritability surged up again, but she could only suppress the emotion and maintain a calm smile on the surface.

His eyes casually swept across the table, on which were placed snacks carefully served by the maids. They were as exquisite as works of art, with great color, aroma and taste.

Ling Hui couldn't help but sneer, thinking to herself: She really knows how to enjoy life? Does she really think of herself as a phoenix?

Just as he was in a daze, he suddenly heard a neat voice of servants greeting him: "Greetings to the noble lady Chunhong."

Ling Hui came back to her senses and turned to look in the direction of the voice.

The sunlight shines through the willow trees, casting mottled shadows; the breeze sways the willow branches, as if embellished with a layer of lively gauze.

Noblewoman Chunhong came slowly from the depths of the courtyard, wearing a glittering red gauze that trailed on the ground. She looked like a peony flower that had bloomed to its fullest, luxurious yet with a hint of fierce provocation.

One has to admit that the good life in the palace did make her more graceful and charming.

Seeing Concubine Chunhong approaching, Ling Hui felt disdainful but did not dare to show it at all. She hurriedly stepped forward, bowed to her, and performed an extremely respectful ceremony.

"May Empress Chunhong be blessed with good health." She spoke in a soft tone with a proper smile on her face, as if the dissatisfaction in her heart had never existed.

Noblewoman Chunhong stood still.

"Get up."

Then, she raised her slender hand, waved her sleeves slightly, and said to the maid beside her: "Give the Sixth Prince's wife a seat."

The two of them sat in a pavilion surrounded by flowers and plants.

The pavilion is surrounded by fragrance, and in the distance is a clear lake with rippling waves. The scenery is so beautiful that it is intoxicating.

Although she looked calm on the surface, Concubine Chunhong's fingers slightly clenched the dress above her knees, and her heart was in turmoil.

Ling Hui's arrival made her feel uneasy. This uneasiness had long been ingrained in her bones and blood. Even though she was now the emperor's favorite concubine and enjoyed supreme honor, her humility had never truly disappeared when facing Ling Hui.

Although she suppressed her anxiety at this moment, she still pretended to be calm on the surface, and turned her head slightly to look at Ling Hui: "You came to see me, but what's the matter?"

Hearing this, Ling Hui raised a faint smile on her face, as if she had inadvertently seen through Concubine Chunhong's emotions, but she did not expose it directly.

"I'm sorry to bother you today because I do have something to ask..." Ling Hui's tone was gentle and a little humble, but there was a bit of scrutiny in her eyes.

Noblewoman Chunhong hurriedly asked, "What are you talking about, Sixth Prince's Consort? Just tell me if you have something to say."

Ling Hui nodded slightly and glanced at the maids and eunuchs standing around her.

Concubine Chunhong was slightly startled, and a trace of displeasure arose in her heart, but she also knew Ling Hui's character very well, so she didn't dare to provoke her easily, so she could only say softly: "You all go down."

Upon hearing the sound, the maids and eunuchs immediately bowed and retreated. Soon, only the two of them were left in the pavilion.

Ling Hui watched the surroundings calm down, then she smiled again, turned sideways to face Concubine Chunhong, and said softly: "You really understand things, no wonder His Majesty dotes on you so much."

This sentence seemed like a compliment, but it contained a hint of sarcasm, which made Concubine Chunhong feel even more uneasy.

Ling Hui sat opposite Concubine Chunhong, her eyes still gentle, a smile on her lips, her fingers gently stroking the teacup, as if she was examining, or as if she was brewing something.

Suddenly, he slowly stood up, and the faint oppressive breath made Concubine Chunhong's body slightly stiff.

"Your Majesty, you are so successful now. It's really enviable." Ling Hui chuckled.

"Princess, I..." Concubine Chunhong opened her mouth and wanted to explain herself, but found that her voice was trembling.

She couldn't help but lower her head and avoid his gaze, as if those eyes were filled with flames that could burn away her disguise layer by layer.

Ling Hui did not give her any chance to breathe, and walked forward step by step until she approached the round table in the middle of the pavilion.

He looked at Concubine Chunhong coldly, and the smile on his lips became more and more sarcastic.

The next moment, she suddenly raised her hand and slapped Concubine Chunhong in the face mercilessly with a loud slap!

"Snapped!"

The blow was so quick and powerful that it caught Concubine Chunhong off guard. She was knocked to one side, and her slender body was on the verge of falling.
