Hearing Xiao Zhan's harsh warning, Shen Liangchen's body trembled. He lowered his head like a wronged wife and stammered,""Yes…"
Just now, he said that he would beat her to death, and now he told her to be careful of her head…This Xiao Zhan was really difficult to get along with. If it was someone timid, he would probably be scared to death!
But then again, after arriving at Ci Ning Palace, she only needed to put on the act of her previous life and be herself. How could she give herself away?
As he cursed in his heart, when Shen Liangchen looked up again, Xiao Zhan had already left the hall.
Shen Liangchen's heart tightened, and he quickly followed behind!
*
The Cining Palace was located southwest of the Wei Kingdom's Imperial Palace. It was located on a higher ground, and the scenery was naturally excellent. However, it was a little far from Qiande Palace, and it would take an incense stick's time to get there.
Coming out of Qiande Palace, Shen Liangchen naturally rode the dragon carriage with Xiao Zhan.
The Wei Kingdom's dragon carriage was covered in brocade and was very luxurious. It was inlaid with gold and jade everywhere.
Shen Liangchen was sitting in the carriage as if he was sitting on pins and needles. His eyes turned slightly and he secretly glanced at the man with a cold face beside him. He kept his eyes lowered without saying a word, and he felt as uncomfortable as he could.
Time passed in torment. The two of them were speechless along the way.
After an unknown period of time, the dragon carriage slowly stopped.
By the time Shen Liangchen reacted and looked at Xiao Zhan, Xiao Zhan had already stood up with a cold face and reached out his hand to Shen Liangchen.
"ChenQie is terrified!"
Although Shen Liangchen said that, his eyes were sparkling. He gently raised his wrist and placed his fair and soft hand in Xiao Zhan's slender and powerful hand.
Xiao Zhan frowned, his eyes filled with deep disgust. Glancing at her sparkling eyes, he lowered his gaze coldly, held her hand tightly, and pulled her belt forward forcefully!
His actions were sudden!
Shen Liangchen, who had just stood up, was caught off guard. He staggered forward and almost fell to the ground.
"Your…Your Majesty!"
Shen Liangchen's face turned pale. He grabbed his big hand with both hands and barely managed to stabilize his body. He quickly looked up and glanced at Xiao Zhan's cold and handsome face. She knew that he did it on purpose. She was angry and couldn't help but laugh in her heart!
On Xiao Zhan's handsome face, it was obvious that he was very unhappy! He was extremely unhappy! Shen Liangchen was very unhappy…but he felt that he had been careful all the way and didn't seem to have offended him in any way!
This guy was cold, heartless, and temperamental. Other than his appearance being much more outstanding than he had imagined, the world was not wrong to say that he was tyrannical!
At that moment, Xiao Zhan saw her staring at him and laughing. He couldn't help but feel a little angry. He thought to himself that this woman really had the ability to make him unhappy. He frowned and thought of the woman who dared to drug him last night and then ran away. Now, he didn't know where she was. The anger in his heart instantly began to rise again.
He thought to himself that if it wasn't for the fact that there was no one more suitable than the woman in front of him, he would have thrown her out of the palace long ago. His eyes turned cold, and he pulled Shen Liangchen out as if he was punishing him. He said fiercely as he walked,""Zhen's empress is Wu Country's Princess Liangchen. One can naturally imagine the etiquette! As for you…when you see the Empress Dowager later, remember to keep that disgusting gaze of yours that only prostitutes should have!”
A prostitute?
Shen Liangchen quickly followed Xiao Zhan's footsteps. He couldn't help but laugh as he kept recalling Xiao Zhan's evaluation of him.
First, it was a pheasant, and then a prostitute. He must be disgusted with her now!
However…
She had only given him a few glances, and he had called her a prostitute. If he found out that the Empress he had spent so much effort to marry had actually grown up among prostitutes, would he be angered to death?!
It was already a miracle that he wasn't angered to death after drinking wine with a eunuch on the night of his wedding!
??*
The Empress Dowager of Wei State, Song, had a fourth birthday this year. However, due to her good maintenance, she looked like she was only in her thirties. She was still as beautiful and charming as ever!
Everything was so ordinary that it couldn't be more ordinary.
However, even though she was so ordinary, it made her already beautiful and peerless face look so charming that people could not look away!
No wonder!
No wonder the brothers Xiao Zhan and Xiao Ce were so handsome. No wonder they only glanced at her face indifferently and did not look at her for long!
With such an immortal mother, would they still fancy a mortal woman? A beauty that could topple a country and bring calamity to its people was sitting firmly in the upper position!
Xiao Zhan noticed that Shen Liangchen had been staring at Empress Dowager Song ever since he entered the palace. He couldn't help but pinch the back of her soft hand. He then turned his head slightly and warned her with a tone as gentle as the spring breeze,"Hurry up and greet mother!"
The back of Shen Liangchen's hand hurt from the pinch, but her red lips curled up slightly. Then, she slowly walked forward with Xiao Zhan. Her steps were light and steady, and the phoenix hairpin on her head did not move at all.
On the high platform, Empress Dowager Song looked at the graceful figure that accompanied Xiao Zhan. Her gaze softened slightly as she quietly watched for a few moments before nodding her head in satisfaction.
"Your son greets mother!"
"ChenQie greets Empress Dowager!"
When they reached the main hall, Shen Liangchen lowered his eyes slightly and spoke at the same time as Xiao Zhan. Then, he crossed his hands and knelt down to Empress Dowager Song.
"Get up!"
Empress Dowager Song nodded her head in satisfaction when she saw Shen Liangchen's proper manners. She then spoke gently and looked deeply at Shen Liangchen before turning to her personal nanny, Autumn Leaf, and nodded.
Autumn Leaf understood and nodded lightly. She raised her teacup and bowed slightly to Shen Liangchen."Empress, please!"
"This…"
Shen Liangchen raised his eyes and turned to look at Xiao Zhan.
It was a folk custom to offer tea.
Xiao Zhan received her gaze and raised his handsome eyebrows slightly. He turned his head to meet his mother's smile and his eyes flashed slightly."Why are you looking at me? Mother came from the common people, so she valued the rules of the common people very much. Quickly serve her tea!”
"Yes, sir!"
"Be good!"
When Shen Liangchen heard this, his body froze!
Her gaze swept across the priceless nine-headed phoenix hairpin in front of her. She braced herself and wanted to look at Xiao Zhan, but she did not expect Empress Dowager Song to discover her intentions before her and directly stuffed the phoenix hairpin into her hand. Then, she laughed and said,"This thing was given by aijia, why are you looking at the emperor? Keep it carefully!"
"…Yes!"
Shen Liangchen had no choice but to nod slightly and accept the phoenix hairpin temporarily.
Seeing this, Xiao Zhan didn't say much. He only raised his eyebrows and asked Empress Dowager Song,""Where's brother Xuan? Didn't you come over long ago?"
"Empress, get up and speak!"
Empress Dowager Song glanced at Shen Liangchen and gestured for her to stand up first. She then said to Xiao Zhan,""This widow received an urgent report not long ago. Your aunt, Princess Anyang, went to the capital with the Beiliao diplomatic mission, but something unexpected happened on the way. Coincidentally, Ce 'er was there, so this widow asked him to help!”
Empress Dowager Song's hand that had just lifted her teacup paused. She glanced at Xiao Zhan from the corner of her eyes and her smile faded slightly. Her expression was a little lonely as she said,"It's your aunt's idea…this widow knows that the emperor and your aunt have always been close. In any case, her carriage is about to reach the capital, why don't the emperor go and check?”
Hearing this, Xiao Zhan's frown deepened.
Moreover, his mother was clearly still holding a grudge against him and his aunt…
Realizing this, he did not think much of it. His lips curled slightly." Since Brother Xuan has already gone over, wouldn't it be superfluous for me to go over? However, I still have important matters to deal with, so I'll take my leave first!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he bowed slightly to Empress Dowager Song.
Empress Dowager Song's eyes dimmed slightly when she saw him like this!
Her gaze turned slightly and fell on Shen Liangchen who was beside him. She sighed secretly," Since the Emperor has something important to deal with, let the Empress accompany this widow and talk more!"”
"Alright!"
Xiao Zhan didn't look up at Empress Dowager Song. Instead, a sharp glint flashed across his eyes. However, there was still a faint smile on his handsome face. He whispered to Shen Liangchen," Be smart!"”
Shen Liangchen's body stiffened. He quickly lowered his head and replied with a bitter smile.
Seeing this, Xiao Zhan once again bowed to Empress Dowager Song and said,"Your son will take his leave!"
Three women were a show, but the women in the palace were worth two!
Today, if he didn't let these two women in front of him be alone, his mother would definitely say with a sad face that he was too distant from her!
Since that was the case, he would just leave.
As for the woman who was pretending to be Shen Liangchen, if she dared to mess up, he would skin her alive, regardless of who she was!。
