Return of the Pearl

Many concubines finally survived the terrifying execution with a sense of relief. Each of them felt like they had experienced a long and difficult battle, and was exhausted both physically and mentally. This scene plunged the Imperial Hospital into a frenzy of activity, and it was so busy that it was almost incomparable!

Almost all the concubines were vying with each other to invite the imperial physician. They looked so anxious, as if they were afraid that they would be left behind. For a moment, the imperial physicians in the Imperial Medical Bureau, who were already limited in number, felt overwhelmed and unable to cope. They rushed back and forth between the palaces, hurriedly walking and looking nervous.

The harem became chaotic and noisy, with the shouts and cries of the concubines intertwined one after another. Some concubines were so nervous and scared that they collapsed to the ground, unable to move, even before the imperial physician arrived; others tightly grasped the hands of those around them, as if only in this way could they feel a little comfort. The entire harem was like being swept by a sudden storm, and it was in chaos, which made people worried.

But in the Yangxin Palace, there was a completely different and wonderful scene. Xiao Yun did not return to her own bedroom. She seemed to be too tired and fell into a deep sleep on the bed in the inner palace. She looked like a lazy cat, quiet and lovable.

When Qianlong issued the order, she was still in a sweet dream, immersed in that wonderful dream, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth. After a long time, she woke up slowly from her sleep and slowly walked out of the inner hall. At this time, she happened to catch up with Qianlong to have dinner together.

Qianlong simply said in a nonchalant tone, "Regarding those rumors, I have tried every possible way to stop them. I believe that when you return to the palace, no one will talk about them casually anymore. You can rest assured."

After hearing this, Xiao Yun's face did not show much emotion. He just nodded slightly and did not take it too seriously.

That night, Xiao Yun did not return to her own bedroom, but stayed directly in the Yangxin Palace. Afterwards, she and Qianlong started a game of extreme affection and joy. During that night, they indulged in love as many as four times. The degree of their passion was as surging as the tide, constantly surging.

The beauty of the bed makes people's hearts beat fast and their emotions flutter. The entire Yangxin Palace is immersed in a romantic and charming atmosphere, making people feel as if they are in a dreamlike world.

The news spread like wildfire, spreading rapidly throughout the entire harem in the blink of an eye. The concubines' hearts were still filled with jealousy and resentment, and the jealousy seemed to be devouring them. However, now they no longer dared to spread those rumors easily. They were indeed frightened by the thundering means and were afraid of it, and they didn't even dare to mention it.

Indeed, this method was very effective, making everyone in the harem silent and afraid to make any rash moves. The entire harem was shrouded in this news, and was filled with a complex and subtle atmosphere. There was envy for Xiao Yun and Qianlong, as well as deep fear and dread. Various emotions were intertwined, making it difficult to grasp.

The next morning, just as a faint pale light appeared in the sky, Qianlong slowly got up from the bed and prepared to attend the routine morning court. Xiao Yun quietly accompanied him with a gentle smile on his face, and enjoyed a very warm breakfast with Qianlong.

After breakfast, Xiao Yun stood up gently, and like an elegant butterfly, slowly left the Yangxin Palace and returned to his bedroom with light steps.

On the way back to the palace, Xiao Yun was surprised to find that the rumors that had followed her like a shadow and made her extremely annoyed had completely disappeared, as if they had never appeared. This made her feel extremely relieved and happy, as if a huge rock pressing on her heart had finally been removed.

After she returned to the bedroom, the palace maids around her were like a group of cheerful little birds, chirping and telling her in detail everything that happened yesterday. It turned out that only the two palace maids who followed her were spared because they did not participate in the execution in the harem. The other palace maids were dragged away to watch the execution. Although the palace maids did not describe the scene of the execution in detail, Xiao Yun's heart was like a mirror, and she knew everything clearly.

Deep down in Xiao Yun's heart, he had always regarded Qianlong as a benevolent and generous emperor. However, the thundering means Qianlong used this time shocked not only others but even Xiao Yun himself. But it was undeniable that this means was indeed effective.

Xiao Yun's friendship for Qianlong grew stronger. She deeply realized that although Qianlong's actions were against the harmony of nature and undermined the emperor's dignity, they were actually beneficial to her.

At this moment, Xiao Yun's mind was filled with thoughts. She was moved by Qianlong's deep love for her and his courage and decisiveness. She clearly understood that Qianlong did this entirely for her, to protect her from the intrusion and harm of those rumors.

Her heart was filled with warmth and touching feelings, and her love for Qianlong became more and more passionate and intense. She secretly made up her mind to accompany Qianlong wholeheartedly and walk through the future with him.

In the eyes of the world, people often say that the imperial family is the most ruthless. However, they never know that when the emperor is in love, he will be steadfast and unwavering, and will never change for the rest of his life. The emperor's deep affection will only be given to that one person, and the person who receives this affection will become the luckiest person in the world.

Once the emperor gives his true love to that person, this emotion will be as continuous as the surging river and as unwavering as the towering mountains. The emperor's affection is so deep and strong, so sincere and pure, it transcends all power and calculations, and transcends all interests and disputes.

That person occupies an extremely important position in the emperor's heart and is the most precious existence in his life. The emperor will use all his strength to care for her, protect her, and let her feel endless warmth and love.

Under the emperor's loving care, that person will enjoy the best things in the world, become the object of everyone's envy, and become the happiest person in the world.
