Chapter 129: God damn service of words!
"You..." The queen wanted to scold her, but she didn't know what crime to accuse her of.
"The Emperor is still waiting in Changdeok Palace to punish me, so I will leave first. I wish the Empress good health and happiness!" Shen Zhiyao was really afraid of being punished by the Empress, so she stuck out her tongue and prepared to slip away.
"Well, I think the emperor's punishment is very good. Tomorrow, Concubine Jin should also come to Fengyi Palace to 'accept the punishment'." The queen said in a cold tone.
Shen Zhiyao was about to slip away, but after hearing this, she could only respond obediently, "Yes, I will remember this."
The queen didn't say much, she just smiled and waved at her, letting her go.
"You deserve it for bullying my master!" Shijin rolled his eyes and complained inwardly.
Shen Zhiyao got on the sedan chair and complained as she walked along the way. She was afraid that she would have to go to Fengyi Palace to copy books tomorrow...
Qiuyue walked beside the sedan chair. Her face was still pale and her feet were very weak.
"Just go back and rest. Chu'an is with me, so it won't be a problem. Judging from your condition, you're probably scared too much. You'll need to stay in bed for two days." Shen Zhiyao looked at her, feeling a little distressed.
This girl grew up with me since she was young. The Shen family was kind to their servants. After entering the palace, she had not experienced any hardships personally, and had never suffered such injustice.
"Thank you for your concern, Master, but I don't want to go back. Leaving you will only make you more anxious. I will adjust myself and I will be fine soon." Qiuyue answered seriously.
"Well, then just follow me first, but don't try to be stubborn." Shen Zhiyao gave him a few more instructions.
Qiuyue nodded in response, but lowered her head and moved closer to Chuan who was following her, and said leisurely: "Our master is really amazing!"
"Of course not." Chuan raised his eyes and looked in the direction of Shen Zhiyao, and said proudly: "Sister Qiuyue, you came here with the master, maybe you don't know how many people in the palace envy me for being chosen by our master! How many capable servants are eagerly waiting for the opportunity to surrender to our master!"
"Yes! But I really deserve to die today. I was careless and almost implicated my master. If that were the case, I would not want to live..." Qiuyue said with a trembling voice.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Shen Zhiyao leaned on the sedan chair and scolded, "Don't let your imagination run wild. You have been with me for all these years and we have the deepest feelings for each other. You are so devoted to protecting me, so I will definitely not ignore you! Take good care of yourself and don't let your nonsense run wild!"
"Yes! Your Majesty!" Although Qiuyue was scolded at this time, she felt sweeter in her heart than if she was rewarded.
Shen Zhiyao has this kind of magic. She can make people feel at ease with just a few words. Although she looks thin, she can give people a sense of security.
Chu An looked at Shen Zhiyao with shining eyes. He really envied Qiuyue. He would work harder in the future. If he could have such a strong friendship with his master, would he have to worry about the rest of his life?
Shen Zhiyao hurried and finally arrived at Changdeok Palace, only to see Bo Muxi sitting leisurely in front of the chessboard drinking tea. Where was the memorial?
"Didn't the emperor want to punish me by making me serve writing?" Shen Zhiyao asked knowingly.
"What? If I want to call you, I must have a reason?" Bo Muxi pinched her blushing face, she looked so tender.
"I'm really afraid that the emperor will be angry. I thought that if I serve him with writing materials, maybe the emperor would be less bothered by me!" Shen Zhiyao acted coquettishly.
"My beloved, do you think I should be angry? Then tell me in detail, what should I be angry about?" Bo Muxi asked with raised lips, his eyes full of inquiry.
"Your Majesty's thoughts are as deep as the sea, how can I guess it for sure?" Shen Zhiyao smiled and took the initiative to squeeze into Bo Muxi's arms: "I just think that my son's words were indeed a bit harsh at that time, and I am afraid that the emperor will dislike me."
"You were so radical just now, but now you are afraid? If my beloved cares about my opinion, it would be better for you to hold back and make a good impression in front of me." Bo Muxi hugged Shen Zhiyao who was hiding in his arms.
Shen Zhiyao secretly complained in her heart: "If I were really that cowardly, you, a fussy man, would definitely be disgusted with me again! You just think about digging holes all day long, why don't you do infrastructure construction!"
"Why should I admit to something I didn't do? If I plot to murder the heir to the throne, I will be labeled a vicious woman. If I were alone, it would be fine, but the Shen family's reputation will be tarnished by me!"
When it comes to core interests, Shen Zhiyao naturally refuses to give in.
"If Lady Zhao doesn't like me, she could just go against me with her belly sticking out. I can usually give in to a pregnant woman. Why take such a risk? If I really mess up and have a miscarriage, it would be really stupid!"
Bo Muxi could tell that Shen Zhiyao was finding new ways to complain again. She really couldn't stand any loss!
"You! Once you get so excited, who can win? I'm very curious." Bo Muxi tapped her nose.
Bo Muxi was naturally very clear about the little thoughts in these women's minds, and he understood it very well after watching it to the end.
From the very beginning, he didn't believe that Shen Zhiyao could do such a stupid thing. Therefore, as long as she could argue reasonably and logically, Bo Muxi would be so happy that he wouldn't be angry.
Bo Muxi had just watched enough of the show and had no interest in state affairs at the moment, so he motioned for Shen Zhiyao to play chess with him.
No matter what, playing chess is entertainment after all, and it is much more interesting than serving pens and ink, so Shen Zhiyao is naturally happy to accompany him.
While Shen Zhiyao and Bo Muxi were having a great time in Changde Palace, Bao Luan from Yuquan Palace quietly sneaked into Qingyuexuan.
There are many spies in the harem, but Bao Luan is a capable and well-connected person. He always does things cleanly and efficiently and has never been caught.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Jin is truly amazing. All the countermeasures you prepared in advance are of no use at all!" Bao Luan bowed.
As early as when Concubine Zhao and the others had planned to frame Shen Zhiyao, Bao Luan was the first to report it to Lu Wanyi.
Lu Wanyi is a person who has a clear distinction between love and hate. Shen Zhiyao has taken care of her many times and is also an ally. Whether out of friendship or for the sake of interest, she will help her out of danger.
But she didn't expect that Shen Zhiyao was too "resistant" and all her work was in vain.
"That's a good thing. The less I move and the less noticeable I am, the easier it will be to accomplish things." Lu Wanyi smiled happily.
Lu Wanyi was indeed relieved that her ally was so helpful and saved her a lot of trouble and effort.
"Master, I rarely see you so happy." Bao Luan sighed.
"Hmm? I feel really good after watching such a wonderful play today!" Lu Wanyi smiled and reached out to pick a wilted flower from the pot.
It clings to the branch half-dead, taking away nutrients from the rest of the flowers.
"Concubine Zhao and Talented Lady Zhao have suffered a huge loss this time. They conspired and plotted for a long time, but Concubine Jin was not hurt at all. Instead, the Emperor is even more annoyed with her!" Bao Luan laughed heartily.
