"Actually, although I'm currently the Sage Emperor of the Sage Palace, all my actions are under the control of others. " For example, now…" Sheng Minghao looked around and heaved a sigh of relief." Fortunately, those who were watching me today have left."”
He looked around nervously, his gaze sweeping over the beams, the corners, the books…
Presumably, those people who usually monitored the situation had chosen to place spies in these places.
"I didn't expect that your life in the palace wasn't easy.”Du Shanhong retracted his gaze and looked at Sheng Minghao." Actually, if you are willing to open your heart to me, I am very willing to listen. I really want to know your true identity, and I also want to know the difficulties that you have to face. You once told me that you would tell me everything once you were done with some matters, but it seems that I can't wait any longer.”His eyes were fixed on Sheng Minghao, filled with anticipation. She hoped that Sheng Minghao would open his heart to her. She really wanted to become Sheng Minghao's key and open the dark door in his heart. She also wanted to become Sheng Minghao's helper and help him solve his problems.
Just as Nainai had said, His Majesty had his own choices in the Holy Palace.
She didn't want Sheng Minghao to keep everything to himself and not reveal it to others. She didn't want Sheng Minghao to bear all the blame alone.
She hoped that she could help him lighten his burden, that she could help him solve his troubles, and not just stand in a corner and watch coldly like a stranger...
"But…I'm worried that you'll be in danger.”Sheng Minghao only smiled bitterly, then gently wrapped his arms around Du Pian Hong's body and knocked his head on his head. The hot breath from the tip of his nose blew on her hair, causing her to feel a little numb. The two of them were very close to each other, like a couple in love.
The crystal lamps in the hall shone with seven-colored light, making the atmosphere even more ambiguous.
" Sheng Minghao, I…" Du Pian Hong raised his eyes. His eyes seemed to be filled with water vapor, making him look very attractive. Her charming eyes were like silk, and her cherry lips were like two petals. Seeing this scene, Sheng Minghao couldn't help but feel his throat twitch. It was as if there was a surge of heat rising from the bottom of his heart, making his mouth feel dry. He retracted his hand and then let go again. After repeating this process repeatedly, his hand still firmly held Du Penhong's.
" Pianpian…" Sheng Minghao swallowed with difficulty. He felt that there were thousands of feelings in his heart that were difficult to express. His chest was filled with poetry, but he couldn't say a word. It was stuck in his throat, making it difficult for him to say anything.
Therefore, the words in his heart became different when they came out of his mouth. "Pianpian, what's the matter?" Sheng Minghao replied dryly.”
"Sheng Minghao, since I entered the palace as a palace maid, what is my position? Was it laundry? Or cook?" Du Shanhong looked into Sheng Minghao's eyes and said seriously," Or embroidery? But…I don't know any of these."
“……”
"Actually, you know my purpose. This time, I must find the murderer who smeared my reputation. Moreover, I hope that I can enter and leave the Holy Palace freely. Is there such a palace maid position?”Du Shanhong secretly looked at Sheng Minghao's expression and asked cautiously. Firstly, the other party was the most powerful person in the Holy Palace. A single word from him could change her fate. Secondly, if she could find a position that was convenient for her to move about, then her investigation could proceed smoothly.
This was the best of both worlds.
Du Shanhong looked at Sheng Minghao nervously, waiting for the answer.
An answer that satisfied her.
" Your Majesty, I've made fish soup for you. You…" At this moment, a woman's voice sounded in the originally empty hall. However, this voice seemed familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere before.
Du Paihong tilted his head and thought carefully. He felt that this voice seemed familiar. So she turned to look at Sheng Minghao and asked him. However, this probing gaze had another meaning in Sheng Minghao's eyes.
Sheng Minghao coughed awkwardly and clenched his fists uncomfortably.
" Pianpian, this person isn't what you think he is…" He wanted to continue, but he found that he couldn't say anything. How was he going to explain? Could it be that this woman was just that person's concubine and had nothing to do with him? But if Pian Hong continued to ask who that person was, how would he answer?
Thus, Shengming Hao decided to remain silent. He stammered and panicked, thinking of a reasonable explanation.
It was an explanation that he could tell Du Pian Hong and not let the other party misunderstand.
"This person is Consort Xian of the Holy Palace." In the end, he couldn't find any reasonable reason, so Sheng Minghao decided to tell the truth." However, I didn't ask her to send any fish soup.”
Looking at Sheng Minghao's anxious expression of wanting to cut ties with Consort Xian, Du Pian Hong couldn't help but laugh.
What did he think it was? Was there a need to be so nervous?
She had heard that the concubines in the palace would constantly do things to please the Emperor. Those women who had lived in the palace for a long time still hoped to be able to obtain the Emperor's favor and receive his grace.
Even if it was only a day of grace, it was still a supreme glory for those empresses and concubines.
"Your Majesty, ChenQie has come in?" Consort Xian outside the hall shouted again. Before she finished speaking, she had already appeared in front of the hall door.
The person was wearing an indigo palace dress with golden threads. The front of the dress was half-open, revealing the woman's voluptuous chest. From the top, one could see a deep groove. Her headdress was all gold, and the most obvious was the pure gold swallow hairpin that was inserted diagonally in her hair. Under the hairpin, there was a pearl tassel that swayed as she walked.
The woman's appearance was not considered stunning, but could only be called delicate and pretty. Her thin eyebrows, slightly upturned phoenix eyes, and that pair of red cherry lips were nothing special. Compared to ordinary women, they seemed too plain.
However, such a plain looking woman could actually be ranked as a noble consort, becoming the Consort Xian of the four noble consorts of the Sacred Palace.
Du Pian Hong sized up the woman in doubt.
An inexplicable sense of familiarity crept into her heart.
Her appearance was ordinary, and she was not considered outstanding.
He felt like he had seen this woman before.
What exactly…
Where was he?
"Du Pianhong!" Consort Xian also sized Du Pian Hong up. She first narrowed her eyes and then looked at him carefully.
She would never forget that peerless face and that arrogant personality!!
"Du Pian Hong! It's actually you!" Consort Xian cried out again. Her body was trembling and her hands were shaking, so much so that she could not hold the fish soup in her hands. The soup in the jade bowl gradually spilled out due to the trembling, and a few drops of juice spilled on the expensive embroidered robe.
"Du Pianhong, it's actually you…"
Consort Xian closed her eyes in fear, then turned around and ran away.
She threw away the fish soup in her hand in a panic and ignored the etiquette of the concubines. She lifted her skirt and ran out.
Her appearance made Du Penhong and Sheng Minghao suspicious.
But why would someone who was meeting him for the first time show such panic?
" Could it be…" Du Penhong pondered for a while and asked suspiciously,""Could it be…that you are one of those beautiful women from back then?”
Consort Xian stopped in her tracks when she heard this. Her body seemed to have been frozen in place. She widened her eyes and turned around in disbelief. Then, there was a faint hatred in her round eyes.
A hatred that no one knew!
"Du Pian Hong…I haven't seen him for a month. As expected, you still forgot about me. Don't you remember that there was a lady from the Ruan family in the Holy Palace's selection? You didn't expect it, did you? I'm already one of the four consorts of the Holy Palace. And you…hahaha…are just a notorious murderer!”
A month had passed, and everything in the world had changed a lot.
The previously unknown young lady of the Ruan family had now become one of the rulers of the Holy Palace's harem, Consort Xian.
And the most ironic thing was that she, who was once all-powerful and envied by others, had now become a murderer that everyone in the capital scolded!
The most lamentable thing was that the world was unpredictable and fate played tricks on people!
