Hard to Get: Charming Abandoned Empress - C93
The palace door creaked open. Little Peach Red raised her head with a look of anticipation, but what she saw was Eunuch Li’s puzzled gaze …
“Little Peach Blossom, what do you mean by that?!” Esteemed wangfei Xin is so sick, why aren’t you going to the imperial physician?! “What are you shouting so much for!” Eunuch Li shut the palace door with a backhand gesture, signalling Little Peach Red to get up!
“This… esteemed wangfei forbid this servant to call in an imperial physician. Right now, she only wanted to see the emperor! I… I have no other choice! Eunuch Li, I beg of you, please let me know! My Empress really is very ill! “I’m begging you …” Not only did Little Taohong not get up, she kowtowed even harder!
“Aiya! You… Get up first! It’s useless for you to be here. The Emperor isn’t at the Imperial Palace, so how am I supposed to report this to him? ” Eunuch Li was clearly a little anxious as well. After all, esteemed wangfei still held some weight in the emperor’s heart! At the very least, when Leng Ao Tian returned, he only asked about Su Man He!
“Not here?!” That… “Then I’ll wait here …” This was something Little Peach Blossom did not expect!
“Wait? If she had the skills, she might as well search around. If something really happened to esteemed wangfei, it’s not something we can afford! “Get up!” It was truly strange. Seeing how usually Little Peach Blossom was so quick-witted, how could she be so stupid at such a crucial moment!
“Ah …” “Right, right!” Hearing this, Little Tao Hong hurriedly stood up. When she turned around, she didn’t know where to start looking. There were hundreds of palaces in this back palace. If she searched one by one, she was afraid that she might not be able to find one even tomorrow!
“But… “Where should we start?” Little Peach Red looked at Eunuch Li with a troubled expression.
“Forget it, just follow me. The emperor has been going to the Jing De Palace quite often recently. He should be there by now!” “Let’s go!” Eunuch Li walked in front while Little Peach Red followed closely behind him, struggling to walk towards the direction of Jing De Palace!
Jingde Palace
Within the dark and gloomy great hall, the gale blew against the palace doors, causing them to creak. A sorrowful figure silently stood in front of the blood-stained cradle, his long robes flapping in the wind without being aware of it!
Xu Bixuan was the woman he hated the most, but the heavens had made a big joke out of him. When everything had gone as he wished, she realized that the woman he loved the most was actually Xu Bixuan!
Feeling the sounds of flustered footsteps approaching from outside, Leng Ao and Tian wiped the sparkling light from the corner of their eyes. When they turned around, Eunuch Li and Little Tao Hong were already kneeling in front of them!
“Your Majesty! Esteemed wangfei Xin is very ill! Please move to the Purple Lai Pavilion! ” Little Tao Hong quickly kneeled down, kowtowing as she spoke anxiously, her voice sounding somewhat shaky.
“Manjo’s sick?” Leng AoTian frowned slightly, it seemed like he had not been to the Zi Lai Pavilion for a long time. Unknowingly, Leng AoTian had already felt the distance between him and Su Man He grow larger and larger, and knew that the crux of the problem was that he himself, the enemy that was feeling sorry for Su Man He, had surpassed the calmness he felt when he had imprisoned her!
Without waiting for Little Peach Blossom to explain herself, Leng Ao Tian had already stepped out of Jing De Palace. Although he had loved her for ten years, looking back, not only had he and Xu Bi Xuan been like water and fire for the past ten years, but they had also lost that stubbornness from before! The proud and aloof figure in the snow seemed to regret. However, he did not understand that the most powerless in this world was regret!
When Little Peach Red saw this, she secretly let out a sigh of relief. She got up and followed him. On the other hand, it was Eunuch Li. After he got up, he rushed to the Imperial Hospital!
Su Manhe looked at the seven-foot-long white silk on the beam, and her eyes turned even colder. Her red lips pursed into a sinister, cold arc, and in her eyes, as the white silk fluttered, a scene appeared. The dazzling throne of the Phoenix Queen, a woman wearing a purple gold phoenix crown, wearing a crimson red Luan with silver threads, was facing the phoenix-kind. Upon closer inspection, that person was none other than himself!
The smile on his face deepened as a trace of determination flashed across his eyes. This was the supreme authority he had gained in the latter half of his life! Su Manhe was at the point where there was no saving her. For the sake of the Empress’s throne, she could even fight for it with her life, because only then would she be able to become the empress dowager and the ruler of the emperor. When the time came, even if she wanted, she could become a prostitute! So it turned out that she had always been conflicted over the matter of her failure to enter the palace and be sealed behind the gates!
Her long and narrow eyes were cold and her slender fingers slowly pulled down the swaying white silk, gently stepping on the carved red chair. The white silk wrapped around her neck, her heart, and at the same time, she hardened her heart and abruptly kicked the chair away.
With a ‘pah’ sound, Su Man He’s body floated in the air, her delicate face was bound by the white silk until it turned red, her beautiful eyes were bloodshot, her red pupils were split open, and only her eyes remained calm and cold. She struggled a few times instinctively, but Su Man He finally closed her eyes!
“Empress!” Little Peach Red, who was walking in front, was the first to enter the pavilion. When she saw the scene in front of her, she became dumbstruck and her legs went limp as she sat on the ground!
“Manhe …” The low growl was heavy with a tinge of fear, Leng Ao Tian flew up and untied Su Man He from the white silk. As he landed, he held onto Su Man He with one hand and placed his other hand on her back, continuously channeling zhen Qi!
Looking at Su Man He’s pale face, her pair of jade butterfly like eyelashes didn’t seem to tremble at all. Leng Ao Tian’s heart felt as if it was being eaten by ten thousand ants, and only after he felt the person in his embrace exhale a long breath, did his frown gradually relax!
“Manhe!” Little Peach Red!
What are you waiting for! Quick, get an imperial physician! ” Leng Ao Tian’s words were practically shouted out. Xiao Hong had recovered from her shock, but after hearing Leng Ao Tian’s order, she quickly ran out. She couldn’t help but admire her master, for the sake of turning defeat into victory, she actually used her own life as a wager.
“Man He?!” Just why was this happening!? How can you… Where did I do it badly? Or was it for some reason?! “Manhe!” Leng Ao Tian’s face was pale white. His eyes were empty and somewhat dazed. A complex look flashed across his eyes, concealing his guilt. It was him who had done the wrong thing! There was no doubt about that!
A string of crystals flowed down from the corner of her eyes, and the moment her consciousness gradually awakened, her heart began to beat wildly. Because just now, she had really arrived at the entrance to hell, if her plan of going all out was even the slightest bit off, then she really would not have opened her eyes! Ah, since the heavens had given her this chance, she definitely wouldn’t disappoint!
Leng Ao Tian frowned as if he was blaming himself. When he saw the tears at the corner of Su Man He’s eyes, his heart softened and he hugged the beauty in his embrace tightly …
“Manhe!” I know, I’ve neglected you these past few days! If you’re not happy, you can say it, you can hit me and scold me! Anything was fine, but he couldn’t die! You will make me feel guilty for the rest of my life! Manhe! I know you’re awake! Speak up! ” The tip of Leng Ao Tian’s nose was a little sour. It was true that he loved Xu Bi Xuan, but he couldn’t bear to hurt her again!
“Chenqie doesn’t dare …” A faint voice came out from her cherry lips. Su Man He struggled to open her eyes, but they were still hazy. She raised her hand to lightly wipe the tears at the corner of her eyes, and her body struggled to leave Leng Ao Tian’s embrace!
“Manhe …” Leng Ao Tian realized what Su Man He was thinking and slowly helped her up. As he raised his eyes, he was deeply moved. It seemed that he had not been here for a long time and he had never seen Su Man He so haggard.
Her beautiful eyes rippled with the desolate spring water, and her cherry lips contained the sadness of wanting to say something, but she seemed to have lost her spirit, making people feel an invisible pressure!
“Chenqie disturbed the emperor, so she deserves to die ten thousand times … “Your Majesty, please punish …” Her voice was weak and her lips were still pale. The Su Manhe who had just gotten up actually kneeled down again. This was unexpected for Leng AoTian. He bent over and once again lifted Su Manhe up …
“Manhe…” What do you mean! “Get up!”
“Chenqie doesn’t dare …” Your Majesty … “Chenqie has a request for you …” Tears welled up in Su Manhe’s eyes, and the sadness in them caused Leng Ao Tian to be startled.
“Get up! “Manhe, it’s my fault. In this period of time …”
“I beg the emperor to force chenqie into a harem!” Leng Ao Tian’s hand stopped in midair at this moment. His pair of beautiful eyes looked at Su Man He with a puzzled expression. A group of scenes that he hadn’t recalled for a long time appeared in front of his eyes …
“Manhe!” I promise you that when I return to the palace, I will immediately bestow upon you the title of Queen! This is my promise to you! I want you to be my queen! “Good!”
“I don’t want to go! “The six palaces are made up of three thousand beauties, and each one of them is as beautiful as the heavens. If Manhe were to go, the emperor would have no choice but to send him into the cold palace. At that time, who knows who else Manhe would have to cry to …”
“No!” I can’t bear to part with it! Manhe, you wait for me. Before long, I will make you the happiest woman in the world! “Only you are worthy of sitting on the empress’s throne beside me!”
“The Emperor made a promise to Manhe. Manhe will restore the loyalty of the Emperor’s entire life …”
Leng AoTian’s thoughts were interrupted by a summons from outside the palace
“Your Majesty! The imperial physician has arrived! ” Eunuch Li turned his head as he walked inside to urge Zhang Kuirman to hurry up. Little Peach Blossom was also following closely behind him.
“All of you, get out! No one is allowed to enter without my orders! “Get out …” Leng Ao Tian’s voice was filled with grief and indignation. Seeing this, Elder Li could not help but be surprised, but he quickly retreated out of the Purple Lai Pavilion! Zhang Qiren and Little Peach Blossom did the same!
Within the ‘Purple Lai Pavilion’, Leng Xiao Tian was sitting on a chair in a depressed manner. Seeing the determination in Su Man He’s eyes, a trace of sorrow flashed across his heart.
“Why …”
Su Man He quietly knelt there. Her eyelashes that were as long as butterfly feathers cast a shadow, blocking the cold light that would not dissipate for a long time. Her pale, blood-red lips moved a few times, but she did not say anything in the end.
“No, I promise you that I won’t beat you into the cold palace! “Manhe, if it’s because of the past few days that I’ve neglected you, I can apologize to you. As for today’s matter, I do not wish for it to happen again!” Leng Ao Tian’s voice was low and powerless, and his eyes were dim. He owed Su Man He too much!
Suddenly feeling very tired, Leng Ao Tian slowly got up, wanting to leave the Purple Lai Pavilion. He admitted that he loved Su Manhe, but now, there was only Xu Bixuan in his heart! In the moment he saved Su Manhe, his mind was still thinking about the same thing that had happened to Xu Bixuan!
“Your Majesty …” Do you remember Lifei? “The Liu Yujie who hung herself and waited for you all her life?” Su Man He trembled as he stood up. His eyes were like broken pearl curtains as broken glass scattered all over the ground.
“Lifei?” The expression on the face of that evil traitor flashed through Leng Ao Tian’s mind. In the Imperial Garden, he clearly remembered how that malevolent looking woman had treated Xu Bi Xuan. He clearly remembered that she deserved to die!
