Chapter 206 Love
He described the situation in the imperial study to Zhou Lingge in detail.
Zhou Lingge didn't react much after hearing this.
She replied very coldly: "Oh, I know."
Eunuch Liu waited for a long time, but Zhou Lingge didn't get up.
"Your Majesty, what then? What's next? Would you like to rise and follow me to the Imperial Study... to help His Majesty out?"
Zhou Lingge couldn't help but chuckle. She asked Eunuch Liu, "Why should I help His Majesty?"
"Eunuch Liu, all the concubines in the harem are His Majesty's women. It is only natural for him to favor them. I have always been magnanimous and never get jealous, so why would I want to cut off Concubine Shu's beard?"
"Besides, if I do something like this, I will only offend Concubine Shu. I am pregnant now, and I don't want to make a powerful enemy for myself."
"Shufei's mother's family is from a military family, and she is considered Your Majesty's savior. Since she wants a child, Your Majesty should give it to her. This is not a big deal, so why is Your Majesty hesitating and refusing to agree? I really can't understand..."
She had never expected an emperor to remain chaste for her, so she had no idea what Qin Feiling was thinking.
Before she entered the palace, Shufei had already been his concubine, his woman.
Even if he favors Concubine Shu now and gives her a child, isn't that a natural thing?
Eunuch Liu was completely dumbfounded.
He didn't expect the imperial concubine to react like this.
He also felt that what the imperial concubine said made sense.
Why doesn't His Majesty want to touch Concubine Shu? Obviously, His Majesty had no objection to Concubine Shu before.
But... this is His Majesty's intention. If he can't invite the imperial concubine, then he's doomed, right?
Eunuch Liu cried out inwardly, and he quickly prostrated himself and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, I don't know what Your Majesty is thinking, but everything I do is in accordance with Your Majesty's orders."
"Your Majesty asked me to come and invite Your Majesty. Please don't make things difficult for me. Please come over."
Zhou Lingge couldn't help but sigh: "But I feel a little uncomfortable and want to sleep now..."
"Didn't His Majesty say before that my health is the most important thing? Eunuch Liu, just reply to His Majesty truthfully. He shouldn't vent his anger on you."
Eunuch Liu's face was almost wrinkled into a bitter melon.
No matter how hard he tried to persuade Zhou Lingge, Zhou Lingge refused to get up.
She even closed her eyes and dozed off.
An attitude of not caring about anything.
Eunuch Liu really had no choice but to leave with a sad face.
Qin Feiling tried every possible means to delay time.
He thought he would wait for Zhou Lingge to arrive.
Who knew that Eunuch Liu came back alone.
His heart suddenly sank and his face immediately turned ugly.
"Liu Quan, where did you go just now?"
Eunuch Liu's body trembled suddenly, and he fell to his knees with a thud.
He tried to choose his words carefully, trying to avoid the possibility of His Majesty getting angry.
"This servant...this servant just received a report from the palace servants of Yuanchen Palace saying that the Imperial Concubine was feeling unwell, so this servant...went to check on the Imperial Concubine."
Qin Feiling frowned, a hint of worry in his eyes.
"How is the imperial concubine?"
"She should be okay, right?"
Eunuch Liu quickly shook his head: "The Imperial Concubine is fine. It's probably just that the pregnancy is hard and she likes to sleep. So when I went there, the Empress had already rested."
He was indirectly telling Qin Feiling that it was not that the imperial concubine did not want to come, but that she was pregnant and her physical condition did not allow it.
After hearing this, Qin Feiling felt better.
The imperial concubine has had a hard time being pregnant, so it’s better not to let her worry about such trivial matters.
He waved his hand and asked Eunuch Liu to leave first.
Eunuch Liu wiped the sweat from his head and breathed a sigh of relief. He had made the right bet. His Majesty really cared about the imperial concubine's health.
Shufei looked at Qin Feiling's expression of concern for the imperial concubine, and she was almost going crazy with jealousy.
She tried her best to suppress the jealousy in her heart, brought a cup of tea and placed it next to Qin Feiling.
"I'm truly envious of the fact that the Imperial Concubine is able to bear Your Majesty's child. Your Majesty, last night I dreamed of our previous child again... If I could become pregnant again, Your Majesty, do you think that child would also be able to return?"
Her eyes were red and crystal clear tears were flowing in her eyes.
The whole person looks pitiful and sympathetic.
These days, she has lost weight because of the child's affairs.
Any man would be unable to remain indifferent when seeing such a delicate and delicate woman.
But when Qin Feiling looked at Concubine Shu, he always thought of Zhou Lingge unconsciously.
Zhou Lingge's appearance and her beautiful eyes filled with tears kept flashing in his mind.
Qin Feiling looked away with a guilty look in his eyes and coughed softly a few times: "Your body is too weak now, so it's better to take care of yourself."
"Shufei, I have a lot of government affairs to attend to. I can't finish them for the time being. Please go back first. I will come to see you when I have time."
Shufei's eyes were full of disappointment and she was extremely heartbroken.
She had begged him so much, but His Majesty remained indifferent.
Apart from Zhou Lingge, he seemed to no longer see the existence of other women.
"His Majesty……"
Concubine Shu was somewhat unwilling and wanted to make things clear directly.
She just wants a child, and Your Majesty must give it to her even if he doesn't want to!
Qin Feiling saw through her intention and his face suddenly darkened.
He didn't hesitate and said directly, "Shufei, no one can influence my thoughts. Don't take advantage of the fact that you saved me once and try to use it to control me."
Concubine Shu was startled. She was still afraid of His Majesty's sudden anger.
She quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. That's not what I meant."
Qin Feiling didn't help her get up. He just kept his brows calm and replied in a very cold voice, "No matter what you mean... you must remember that no one can influence my thoughts."
"I will not be swayed by anyone or any emotion. Go back and rest, live your life peacefully, and I may still treat you well..."
Qin Feiling's warning made Concubine Shu feel a dull pain in her heart.
She gritted her teeth secretly and suppressed all her resentment.
"Since Your Majesty is busy, I will not bother you any further."
"In three days, it will be my birthday. I hope Your Majesty can spare some time to spend with me."
Qin Feiling thought that if he refused again, it would be hard to justify.
He could only nod and said, "Okay, I will give you a big gift then."
Only then did Concubine Shu wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, slowly stood up and left.
When she returned to Fenghe Palace, she couldn't help sobbing softly.
"Even if I offered to save his life, His Majesty would remain unmoved."
"It was as if I were a monstrous beast, about to devour him. How could he treat me like this? What he just said was clearly a warning to me... Your Majesty is truly too cruel and heartless."
