"I...I..." Rui Changzai was so frightened that she couldn't care less about the bleeding on her hand, and said hurriedly, "Empress, I didn't mean it! Eunuch Chen, really Eunuch Chen, I didn't mean it."

"This..." Chen Yuan glanced at Shen Ruochen, "According to the rules, destroying something given by the emperor is considered a serious crime. The most serious one will be beheaded, and even the mother's family may be harmed!"

"Ah!" Rui Chang's legs were weak, and Chen Yuan said deliberately, "I'm afraid it depends on Concubine Chen... whether she cares about it or not. But even if Concubine Chen doesn't care about it, the Emperor will... I'm afraid..."

Ruichang couldn't care about anything else and hurriedly crawled to Shen Ruochen's feet, kowtowed vigorously and said, "Empress! Empress! I really didn't mean it. Please spare me this time. Please! Please!" Got it!"

As he said that, Rui Changzai kowtowed vigorously, and the sound of "dong-dong" echoed throughout the yard instantly.

Shen Ruochen frowned, "Forget it, can you go back to your room this time?"

"Ah?" Rui Changzai was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood what Shen Ruochen meant, and nodded quickly, "Okay! The concubine is back! The concubine is back!"

As he spoke, he rolled and crawled quickly back to his room.

Little Walnut pouted, "Master, she had to stick here just now, but this time it's better. She can run faster than anyone else."

Shen Ruochen smiled and said nothing. Instead, he looked at the handkerchief on the ground and said, "Put your things away and wash them if they are dirty. The emperor rewarded them anyway, so keep them."

He looked at Chen Yuan again, "Does the Emperor have anything else to do, or has he rewarded you with something else?"

Chen Yuan shook his head, "No more."

"Okay, then I won't keep you here, please go slowly," Shen Ruochen said politely to see off the guests.

But Chen Yuan can't leave. The emperor's intention is not in vain, but he needs a reply!

Chen Yuan gritted his teeth and said, "Empress, would you like to bring something to the Emperor? It can be a handkerchief, a purse or something, or a message!"

"I have nothing to bring, but I have something to say." Shen Ruochen said.

Chen Yuan hurriedly said, "My queen, please tell me."

"Please tell your Majesty that today's matter has nothing to do with me. That...will you get sick again tonight? Don't rely on me."

Chen Yuan said with a smile, "Your Majesty, can't you tell the Emperor about this?"

"What's wrong? I'm telling the truth. What I hate most are people who pretend to be faint!" Shen Ruochen turned back to the house with a cold face. Chen Yuan sighed and threw the fuss in his hand to the little eunuch beside him. , also said goodbye.

"Master, didn't you say you can't offend the emperor?" After everyone left, the two returned to the house, and Little Walnut asked curiously.

"Yes, we can't offend him. He is the emperor, our food, clothing and parents!"

"Then you still... I heard what Eunuch Chen said just now, it seems that the emperor wants to reconcile with you, but this thing is not a good gift, so I gave you two broken handkerchiefs. Are you unhappy because of this?" "

Shen Ruochen smiled and said, "That's called horizontal silk and vertical silk. It's a shabby handkerchief. It's uneducated!"

"Ah?" Xiao Walnut's eyes widened, "Then...then you still..."

"Idiot, I did it on purpose," Shen Ruochen looked at the square floral cloth on the table and said quietly, "Because I can't love anymore, I have to think of something else. How else are we going to survive!"

Little Walnut scratched his head, not quite understanding what he was saying.

Speaking of Chen Yuan's truthful report when he came back, Emperor Yuande heard that Shen Ruochen said it was a broken handkerchief. He was so angry that he almost fell over and cursed, "This uneducated guy! He doesn't understand anything!"

Seeing Chen Yuan standing there with no reaction at all, Emperor Yuan De became even more angry, "She doesn't understand, do you understand? You can't speak! Now you are honest."

Chen Yuan's face was full of innocence, "Your Majesty, this servant doesn't understand, and you didn't say anything! Otherwise, my servant would definitely explain it to you!"

"You!" Emperor Yuan De was so angry that he slammed the table, "Get out! Get out! Get out of here!"

"The pistil is always there..."

"Isn't it okay? I have something to do with the imperial doctor. I'm so annoyed!" Emperor Yuan De waved his hands impatiently, and Chen Yuan understood. He turned around and told the people below that even if Rui Changzai really fainted, he couldn't pass it on for the time being. The emperor heard it.

For five days in a row, Emperor Yuande saw no one and stayed alone in the Yangxin Hall.

He didn't turn over the signs, and the concubines who came to deliver things were not seen, so he was busy with state affairs. But I heard that the Yangxin Hall has replaced the tea sets several times, which seems to be quite expensive.

This day.

Kang Guiren came to Chuxiu Palace for a visit. He and Shen Ruochen played with the third elder brother and asked casually, "Empress, what's going on between you and the emperor? Rumors have spread throughout the palace that you and the emperor had a quarrel. Is that right?" Really?"

Shen Ruochen nodded, "Indeed."

"Why is that? Is it because of her?" Kang Guiren pointed in the direction of the east hall.

Shen Ruochen smiled faintly and said nothing.

"You have such a good temper, why did you end up in such trouble with her? I heard what is being said outside that you and she are trying to rob the emperor together."

"Robbing the Emperor?" Shen Ruochen snorted, "What kind of treasure is the Emperor? Are you going to rob him? Isn't it a shame?"

"Then what's going on with you? I see that you are very kind to me, so why are you with her..."

"I'm not the jealous person. I just don't like people who pretend to be faint and pitiful. She wants to accuse me unjustly because she has been like this since she was a child. Huh! In front of the emperor, she slaps her mouth. Do you think it's funny or not?" Shen Ruochen rolled his eyes, "I look disgusted, so naturally I'm not angry with her anymore."

Kang Guiren sighed and said, "Your Majesty, you are obviously very good-tempered, why do you suffer because of this? People who don't know outside think it's your fault. In fact... the Queen Mother doesn't think much of her either."

"The Queen Mother?" Shen Ruochen raised his eyebrows. He was still very concerned about the Queen Mother's affairs. "tell me the story."

Kang Guiren stuffed a piece of milk into her mouth and said, "The Queen Mother also inquired about you and the Emperor. The concubine said she didn't know. Anyway, she really didn't know, so it was not a lie. The Queen Mother was not happy and said He talked a lot and asked me to give more advice and advice.”

"How do you advise?"

"Yes, I am a noble person, how can I advise you?" Kang Guiren said, "But when I was just halfway through my words, Rui Changzai came to say hello, and I saw the Queen Mother showing dissatisfaction."

"Has the Queen Mother seen her?"

Kang Guiren nodded, "Yes, I just talked about some past events and asked Ruichang at home, but the Queen Mother didn't seem to be interested, so she just dealt with it, and then I left."

Shen Ruochen's eyes flickered, "You mean, when you left, she hadn't left yet?"
