The abandoned concubine is charming and charming, and the sickly prince breaks his waist

"So, he came for me tonight?"

Chu Hengzhi thought for a moment and said, "I guess so."

After hearing this, Hua Shu snorted and said, "Your Highness is really good at using me."

Hearing the displeasure in her tone, Chu Hengzhi softened his voice and said, "You and I are husband and wife, so how can you talk about using me?"

Seeing him replying to her with the same words she had said to him that day, Hua Shu almost vomited blood.

But she still didn't forget the most important question. She looked up at Chu Hengzhi and asked, "You just said that he heard that I have medical skills and wanted me to cure his serious illness, so he came to me."

Chu Hengzhi nodded and said, "He has been suffering from a serious illness since he was born. This is why he has not taken action for so long. That's why I asked someone to pass the message to him."

After listening to this, Hua Shu got up from his lap, walked to the table, poured herself a cup of tea, took a sip, played with the teacup, turned around and looked at him with a smile.

"I didn't promise Your Highness that I would cure him of any serious illness."

Chu Hengzhi smiled and stood up, walked to her and squatted down, holding her hand, and said gently: "I'm begging you."

After saying that, he put the back of her hand to his lips and kissed it, looking at her with affection in his eyes.

If it were someone else, seeing him like this, their heart would beat faster and their face would turn red.

But how could Hua Shu, a man who had lived two lives and only wanted to climb up, be coaxed by just a few words?

But despite this, she still lowered her head coyly and called out shyly, "Your Highness."

Chu Hengzhi did not miss the sneer that flashed across her eyes, but he did not expose her.

After all, it's better to pretend to be ignorant about some things.

Both of them knew that the other was not saying what he meant, but neither of them said it out loud.

Hua Shu suddenly thought of something, looked up at him and asked, "Your Highness, now that he knows that I have medical skills, will it be bad for me?"

Chu Hengzhi looked at her and smiled, "Don't worry, I have already let people spread the news that you are mine. Even if he wants to look for you, he will come to me first."

Hua Shu heard him say that and glared at him coquettishly: "It turns out that His Highness has already arranged everything. I was just trying to share His Highness's worries."

"I'm satisfied if you have this intention." Chu Hengzhi said, standing up and holding her towards the chaise longue.

Hua Shu subconsciously put her arms around his neck: "Your Highness, you don't want to..."

Before she finished speaking, Chu Hengzhi put her on the chaise longue and said with a smile: "I am not such a beast that I would not even spare the injured."

Hua Shu really wanted to say, it’s not like you haven’t done this before, but after thinking about it, she decided not to say it.

Chu Hengzhi lay down beside her with his clothes on, closed his eyes and asked, "When are you going to get rid of the fake baby in your belly?"

Although the effects of the fake pregnancy drug are not fatal, they are still torturous. He doesn't want to have unbearable abdominal pain suddenly when he is doing it.

Hua Shu couldn't help laughing when she heard him say that. She grabbed his hand and placed it on her lower abdomen.

"Your Highness, what you said is true. You have a share of this child."

After hearing her say this, Chu Hengzhi simply closed his eyes and stopped talking.

Because he knew that if he continued talking, Hua Shu would definitely tease him.

Who knows, oh no, he would definitely do something beastly by then, so he chose to keep his mouth shut.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Hua Shu lost the desire to speak. She let go of his hand, closed her eyes and fell asleep after a while. She was really tired.

Hearing the sound of even breathing beside him, Chu Hengzhi opened his eyes, tilted his head to look at her face in the moonlight coming through the window, his eyes became complicated.

……

At the same time, Concubine Yi changed into night clothes and went to Chonghua Palace.

Empress Liu had already taken off her headdress and was preparing to rest. When she heard that she had arrived, she quickly let her in.

"Your Majesty." Concubine Yi bowed to Empress Liu.

Seeing her coming over in person, Empress Liu frowned, stepped forward to help her up, and asked, "Why did you come over in person? Did something happen?"

Concubine Yi stood up and said with a somewhat unpleasant expression: "Your Majesty, the Emperor was assassinated in Lanyue Pavilion tonight."

Although she had given up on the emperor, Empress Liu's face still turned pale when she heard that he had been assassinated.

She grabbed Yipin's hand and asked, "What happened? Is the emperor injured?"

Concubine Yi shook her head, her face somewhat grim as she said, "The Emperor was not injured, but the assassin..."

Seeing her like this, Empress Liu frowned and asked, "What happened to the assassin?"

Concubine Yi hesitated for a moment, but still said Chu Yunfeng's name.

"The assassin is the Sixth Prince."

When Empress Liu heard that the assassin was Chu Yunfeng, she was stunned for a moment, then her face darkened.

"Is that idiot Chu Yunfeng crazy? How dare he try to assassinate his father?"

But soon she thought of one thing: the emperor was assassinated, so how come she, as the queen, didn't receive the news?

Thinking of this, she asked Nanny Zhang to call a eunuch and asked, "Have you heard about the emperor being assassinated?"

The emperor was assassinated?

The eunuch was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I have not received any news."

Empress Liu was silent for a moment before she said, "You go out first and have someone keep an eye on the emperor. If anything happens, tell me as soon as possible."

"Yes." The eunuch responded and retreated.

After the eunuch left, Empress Liu asked Nanny Zhang to wait outside, then looked at Concubine Yi and asked, "How do you know that the assassin was Chu Yunfeng?"

Concubine Yi recounted how Chu Yunfeng was discovered, fled to Chuxiu Palace, and was captured.

After hearing this, Empress Liu frowned and said, "You mean, he was captured in Chuxiu Palace?"

Yipin nodded and said, "Yes, he also scratched Hua Shu."

Empress Liu remained silent. Logically, if Chu Yunfeng had been discovered attempting to assassinate her, he would have fled to his own bedroom even if he wanted to escape. Why would he have fled to Chuxiu Palace? Was he in such a panic?

Seeing that she didn't speak, Yipin hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, there is still one thing Xueqiong can't figure out."

Empress Liu withdrew her thoughts, looked at her and asked, "What's the matter?"

Concubine Yi looked a little unhappy and said, "At first I was worried that the emperor would blame you for this, but on my way to Chonghua Palace, I didn't hear about what happened in Lanyuexuan and Chuxiu Palace tonight. I suspect that the emperor had someone keep this a secret."

Empress Liu did not speak. She still couldn't understand why Chu Yunfeng would assassinate the emperor.

Could it be that he wanted to perish together with his enemies? Thinking of this, Empress Liu's eyes turned cold.

But soon she thought of one thing. Although Chu Yunfeng had never left the palace, he was very familiar with it. It was impossible for him to run into Chuxiu Palace in a panic.

Could this matter be related to Hua Shu?

Seeing that her face was getting uglier and uglier, Yipin couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, do you also think that this matter is related to Hua Shu?"

Hearing her say this, Empress Liu frowned and looked at her: "Why do you ask that?"

Concubine Yi hesitated for a moment and said something that made Empress Liu's face change drastically.
