The queen is sober in the world, and she is winning every step of the palace fight.

Seeing Gu Shuer's attitude, the emperor knew that she had a deep-seated problem. If he didn't resolve her problem, her stubborn nature would make it impossible for her to help him deal with Yu Feiwan.

After a moment's thought, he spoke carefully, "I brought you with me for your safety. I had no choice. If I had kept you in the palace, you would have been harmed by the rebels. If I hadn't taken you north with me, but instead stopped you en route, Shu'er, the Yu family is so vicious, how could I have known she wouldn't have sent someone back to secretly harm you? She had urged me not to take you north, and I knew her intentions. Naturally, I couldn't let you out of my sight and fall victim to harm."

What a reason!

Gu Shuer felt disdainful.

This guy can't even make up a lie and is getting dumber.

"Since Your Majesty knew her evil intentions before the expedition, why did you give her power a few days ago?"

The emperor argued, "To lure the snake out of its hole! To make her rebellious intentions known to the world!"

Gu Shu'er was surprised. "Now that the snake has appeared, why do I see that the government, the military and the people all like it very much?"

The Liang army turned defeat into victory, and the Imperial Noble Consort played an indispensable role. Now the reputation of Imperial Noble Consort Zhaohua is being praised inside and outside Sigu Town.

A batch of memorials were also delivered by express horses from the capital. Apart from those reporting on official business and greetings, the remaining half were praising the merits of the Imperial Noble Consort.

Gu Shu'er didn't know that these people who wrote eulogies were basically Princess Qinghe who, under the coercion of Fei Wan, begged and persuaded her relatives and friends to carry Fei Wan's sedan chair. It just so happened that Fei Wan had saved the emperor's carriage, concubines and officials from the chaotic army, and also found reinforcements to turn the tide of the war. So these people immediately wrote the second and third eulogies, greeting the emperor and praising Fei Wan's achievements.

They didn't know that Fei Wan had already controlled the emperor, and they thought that praising the imperial concubine was to please the emperor, and that they could curry favor with both His Majesty and the favorite concubine at the same time.

Of course, even if Gu Shuer knew the truth, she would deliberately mock the emperor without mercy.

She was extremely disgusted by the emperor's behavior.

Talking to him now is just to tease him.

"Your Majesty, this snake you have drawn out is a shining example of merit and beauty. Its merits are immeasurable, it is revered by all, and its beauty is beyond compare. Do you think it could be the reincarnation of Nuwa?"

emperor:"……"

Stupid Gu!

But if he didn't tolerate Gu Shuer, he wouldn't be able to find anyone around him who could help him.

The key point was that Gu Shu'er was pregnant with his child and was most likely on the same page with him. As for the others, he didn't have the leverage to convince them, nor did he dare to trust them completely.

Fei Wan's betrayal filled the emperor with deep fear. The woman he trusted most, the one he had given power to, had actually stabbed him in the back. How could he dare to trust anyone else?

But Gu Shuer was a silly girl with a bad temper, so the emperor began to coax her patiently.

"I know I wronged you, Shu'er. I had you feign miscarriage that day solely to draw out the Duke of Zhenguo and the other traitors hiding behind the scenes. Northern Qu was watching covetously, and the traitors were secretly preparing to make a move. If I didn't eliminate them first, how could I have the peace of mind to conquer Qu? Facts have proven that I was not wrong. After your 'miscarriage', the Empress went to the Western Hills, revealing the traitors' whereabouts, allowing me to follow that clue and send people to track them down. Shu'er, you have made an invaluable contribution! Shu'er, as a ruler, I can only put aside my romantic feelings. No matter how much I cherish you, I also have to consider the overall situation. Can you understand my painstaking efforts, Shu'er?"

Gu Shuer: "I understand... not even a little bit."

The emperor was furious: "Shu'er! Stop being angry. It's not easy for me to come see you. If the Yu family finds out, you will be in greater danger than me. Think about it, did I only bring you north? I brought all the civil and military officials, concubines and relatives! It was to conceal my tracks, to keep the rebels and the Qu Kingdom from finding out. I want to kill two birds with one stone. Let them all think that I am out for pleasure hunting, but secretly I have laid a trap to catch them off guard! Shu'er, you see, without my painstaking planning, how could we have achieved this great victory!"

The frail emperor spoke for a long time, his pale face becoming even more sallow. Panting, he paused, leaning on the table beside him to catch his breath.

The young monarch who was full of vigor and vitality in the past, wearing a golden crown and jade belt, seemed to be an image that was very far away.

Under the dim light, Gu Shu'er saw the light lines on his forehead and the fine wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. Thinking carefully, he seemed to be only twenty-six or twenty-seven years old?

Will your body decay due to excessive indulgence in sex?

Few emperors in ancient times lived long lives. Was it because they had too many concubines and were always competing with others, so they were exhausted and collapsed early?

Gu Shuer felt a little pity in her heart.

He gently advised, "Your Majesty, stop talking and take a rest. Save your strength and prepare a good coffin for yourself. This is the most important thing right now."

The emperor looked up in surprise.

Concubine Shu? ?

Is she also? ?

Are you on the same page with that vicious Yu family?!

"Shu'er..."

"Do you really have no feelings for me left?"

"I recall the time when you first entered the palace. You were bright and dazzling, as happy as a bird on a spring branch..."

Gu Shuer was just about to say, "Don't mention the beginning of entering the palace. I just feel disgusted."

My neck felt tight.

The emperor reached out and grabbed her throat!

It turned out that his affectionate confession was just to distract her attention so that he could launch a surprise attack!

He was trying to use tricks to divert attention from a pregnant woman who was half lying in bed to protect her fetus!

Gu Shuer felt so nauseous that she wanted to vomit.

But his neck was held, and he could hardly breathe.

"His Majesty!"

Luo Guiren, who had been quiet over there, rushed forward in a panic.

The emperor held Gu Shu'er tightly with one hand and used the other hand to resist Gu Shu'er's fierce scratching.

He shouted to Noble Lady Luo, "Hold her down quickly! I must kill this foolish woman, otherwise the Yu family will keep her child and kill me! If she dies, the Yu family will have no hope and will not dare to act rashly!"

Noble Lady Luo said blankly, "But...but she's a child of the royal family. If the Imperial Noble Consort wants to use her, that's fine, right? Your Majesty, the Concubine Shu is carrying your dragon seed!"

"How can you be considered a dragon seed if you haven't even been born! Come and help me! Otherwise, I will execute you too!"

Gu Shuer took out a dagger from under the pillow and stabbed it hard in the emperor's arm.

The emperor cried out in pain and let go, took two steps back, pressed the wound, and rushed forward again with red eyes.

"Lady Luo, help me!"

"Okay, Your Majesty!"

Concubine Luo hurried forward.

Gu Shu'er was not strong enough during her pregnancy, and after she stabbed him hard, her heart started beating fast and she saw stars.

Seeing the two men so close and rushing towards him, he knew he was no match for them and quickly opened his mouth to call for help.

But before he could shout out, he was surprised to see Concubine Luo pull out the hairpin on her head, turn around and stab the emperor in the chest.

Then he pushed and kicked the emperor and knocked him to the ground.

Gu Shuer: "..."

Sister, your Infernal Affairs performance is a bit scary.
