The cold emperor reigns supreme, the arrogant empress begs for a truce.

Chapter 105: This person is sick, diagnosis complete.

Having been quite frightened by Mo Zhen, Leng Yuling lost all interest in horseback riding and spent the rest of her time chatting with Ma Zhiyun in the pavilion.

However, most of them were complaining about Mo Zhen.

"Don't you think there's something wrong with Mo Zhen?" Leng Yuling pointed to her head and said. Seeing Ma Zhiyun's horrified and confused expression, she continued, "He was perfectly fine one second, but then he inexplicably started getting angry at you the next."

Thinking of something, Leng Yuling continued, "No, you've definitely never experienced this feeling. He's so good to you, he's never lost his temper with you. All his temper is directed at me alone."

He got angrier and angrier as he talked, picked up his cup and drank it all in one gulp. As if that wasn't enough, he poured himself two more cups of tea and drank them all in one gulp.

Seeing this, Ma Zhiyun realized that Mo Zhen and Leng Yuling had quarreled again during the short time they were on horseback. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but laugh.

"What are you laughing at?" Leng Yuling sighed and said with a wronged look, "I knew that I was the only one in all of Southern Chu who had ever received such treatment."

In Leng Yuling's eyes, Mo Zhen's actions were discriminatory treatment. However, she did not realize that she was also the only one who dared to anger Mo Zhen.

Ma Zhiyun pursed her lips, looking at Leng Yuling with a half-smile. Even though she was complaining, the happiness on her face was obvious.

"Empress, have you ever thought about why the Emperor treats you this way only?" There are some things that even bystander Ma Zhiyun can see, but Leng Yuling, the person involved, has not noticed at all.

For example, the fact that she likes Mo Zhen and Mo Zhen likes her too.

“He’s sick. I really can’t find any other reason besides that.”

This person is ill; diagnosis complete.

Ma Zhiyun looked at Leng Yuling. Although she didn't quite understand what Leng Yuling meant by "sick" in Mo Zhen's repeated claims, she found the ever-changing expressions on her face quite amusing.

"Empress, do you really not know why the Emperor treats you this way only?" Ma Zhiyun asked, seeing the obvious anger on Leng Yuling's face.

Leng Yuling looked at her and nodded seriously.

He knew that Mo Zhen had a strange temper, and it wasn't uncommon for her to suddenly get angry like she did just now. But every time this happened, she felt inexplicable and couldn't find the reason.

Ma Zhiyun explained with a smile, "That's because the Emperor likes you."

When Leng Yuling, who was drinking tea, heard Ma Zhiyun's words, she spat out every drop of tea in her mouth and coughed several times. After recovering, she looked at Ma Zhiyun and asked seriously, "Are you serious?"

Mo Zhen likes her, but she feels that Mo Zhen should hate her. Otherwise, why does he always show that he is not satisfied with her at all?

“I have known the Emperor since I was a child, but I have never seen him care so much for any woman. Moreover, in all the years I have been in the palace, I have never seen him stay overnight in any concubine’s palace.”

Ma Zhiyun's words all revealed that Mo Zhen treated her differently from others. Otherwise, how could she be called the most favored concubine in the Southern Chu Palace? It was because Mo Zhen rarely favored other concubines.

However, what Ma Zhiyun didn't know was that Mo Zhen and she had never had any physical relationship, even though they slept in the same bed.

Suddenly remembering something, Leng Yuling looked at Ma Zhiyun and swallowed hard: "I'm asking you, has Mo Zhen ever stayed overnight in the palaces of other concubines? Including you?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Zhiyun was taken aback. She assumed that Leng Yuling was trying to find out who Mo Zhen had favored, or who he had favored the most before her. So she said, "Before marrying you, the Emperor basically lived in his own Shangqian Palace."

Hearing Ma Zhiyun's words, Leng Yuling couldn't help but get goosebumps.

-

Ever since hearing Ma Zhiyun's words at the horse farm, Leng Yuling has found it increasingly difficult to look Mo Zhen in the eye.

However, looking at him, you really can't tell that he's the kind of person who has that kind of fetish.

Such a handsome man, what a pity.

During the meal, Leng Yuling kept staring at Mo Zhen, shaking her head from time to time, looking regretful, which Mo Zhen found strange.

"From the moment I entered, you've been looking at me with those eyes. Is there something you need?" Although Mo Zhen usually found Leng Yuling strange every day, she was even stranger today, strange in a way that even he couldn't understand.

Leng Yuling shook her head, raised her hand and patted Mo Zhen's shoulder, saying in a very regretful tone, "Don't worry, I won't look down on you."

Mo Zhen found it increasingly strange: "Zi Yan, what happened to your mistress today? Why is she acting so strangely?" Looking at Leng Yu Ling, Mo Zhen added, "She started talking nonsense early this morning."

"Your Majesty, this servant...this servant is unaware that Her Highness is no different from usual today," Ziyan replied with a curtsy.

Mo Zhen looked at Leng Yuling, raised an eyebrow, as if asking her what had happened, and the latter grinned and said, "You're the one talking nonsense."

She just never expected that Mo Zhen would be...

Thinking of something, Leng Yuling suddenly looked up at Mo Zhen, then subconsciously raised her hand to cover her mouth. If he didn't know the woman, why did he kiss her?

The thought of this made Leng Yuling feel nauseous, and she couldn't eat the food in front of her no matter what. She suddenly got up and walked into the house. Ziyan glanced at her, then at Mo Zhen, and then followed her.

Mo Zhen felt that Leng Yuling was becoming increasingly strange, and he was completely baffled.

As Ziyan followed Leng Yuling back to her room, she asked, "Your Highness, what's wrong? You haven't even had breakfast."

"I feel disgusted," Leng Yuling blurted out instinctively.

Ziyan was taken aback at first, then grinned and stepped forward even faster, standing in front of Leng Yuling. Looking at her, she said, "Your Majesty, you...you wouldn't happen to be pregnant, would you?"

In her mind, feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit usually means she's pregnant.

Upon hearing Ziyan's words, Leng Yuling raised her hand and slapped her forehead: "You're the one who's pregnant!" She hadn't even shared a room with the Emperor, so how could she have a child? Besides, Mo Zhen was a man who liked men, so how could he have a child with her?

Thinking about this, she suddenly realized that the reason why Mo Zhen slept in the same bed with her every night but never touched her was because he liked men!

"You bastard, Mo Zhen, you actually used me as a target!"

Leng Yuling felt that Mo Zhen's marriage to her was merely a marriage of convenience, and that his real purpose was to prevent others from knowing that he was gay.

And coincidentally, she didn't want to share a room with him, which suited his wishes perfectly.

"Mo Zhen, you scheming bastard," Leng Yuling said in a low voice, her eyes narrowed.

As soon as he finished speaking, a familiar voice rang out beside him: "What did you say?"
