Hope Should I Win Your Heart - C236 profundity of mind
On the other hand, Fu Huaiyu was already imprisoned in the Sky Prison. But since he was still the Emperor’s blood brother, the conditions of the cell were naturally much better.
“Ninth Prince, your subordinate has been slow.” Although there was a smile on the jailer’s face, the mockery in his eyes was obvious.
As long as they were imprisoned, so what if they were royalty? Not to mention, he had heard that Fu Huaiyu was involved with a dignified imperial concubine, so Fu Yuheng naturally could not let him off so easily.
Thinking about that, he became even more pleased. Fu Huaiyu glanced at him, that glance was sharp, as if he wanted to cut that person into ten thousand pieces.
These dog slaves looked down on him. Even if he was put in jail, he still had not made up his mind. If he went out, he would die a horrible death!
The prison guard laughed, as if he felt that Fu Huaiyu was overestimating himself. After entering the cell, he still didn’t know how to control himself, and thought that he was Ninth Prince! The head of the prison shook his head disdainfully and walked out, “Ninth Prince should just rest well. If I’m lucky, maybe I can wait for the emperor to give me a break.”
“Scram!” Fu Huaiyu growled out in a low voice, the unwillingness in his heart pushed to its greatest limit.
In truth, this was what he said, but everyone knew that once you entered the Heavenly Prison, even if Fu Yuheng was willing to let you off the hook, he would still suffer greatly.
He realized that everything that had happened was definitely not a coincidence. Now that he thought about it, it was all her scheme. Before, he was still a little uncertain, but now he felt that it could be confirmed.
She had expected that he would go to the palace to find her. She had arranged for Liu Xiaguang to be drugged in the west wing, but why did he suddenly faint? This was something that he had yet to figure out. If Lian Yun had not consumed enough time, in addition to the fact that she could not have administered the poison under his nose, it would be impossible for her to do so.
A pair of bright and beautiful peach blossom eyes gradually became gloomy, its eyes dangerously squinted with a dark light. Could it be that besides the spy at his side? She really was a good method to be able to contact even the people beside her. If he had cooperated with her back then …
Thinking of this, he slowly clenched his hands in his sleeves. Liu Chugrong was too disappointing, she actually fell into Shen Qingwan’s trap so easily! It was not easy for him to hold on until now, but it was all destroyed!
His chest rose and fell due to anger. He used one hand to brush the kettle on the table and knocked over the table. His plan had been ruined. How could he swallow his anger?
Fu Huaiyu’s indignation and Fu Yuheng’s carefree attitude were in stark contrast. At this moment, a trace of happiness flashed in his eyes as he looked at Sun Ning, who was reporting the information below.
“Ninth Prince has already been captured in the palace. As for Hu Youshan …” The corner of Sun Ning’s mouth curled into a satisfied smile. He could finally retract the net.
“The emperor is very scheming. This time, Ninth Prince has no excuse to escape.” Sun Ning couldn’t help but to praise his scheme. He originally thought that it would be easy to scheme for a period of time, but he didn’t expect it to be completed so early.
Speaking till this point, he thought about the lady who had an indifferent expression. She could take down Fu Huaiyu with ease, she was indeed a woman that he had his eyes on. He unconsciously lifted the corner of his mouth as a trace of gratification flashed across his eyes. He spoke in a low and melodious voice, “This is not my credit.”
Hearing this, Sun Ning frowned. He did not know why Fu Yuheng would say such a thing, but Sun Ning only thought that it was his humble excuse.
After immersing himself for a while, he straightened his expression, solemnly looked at Sun Ning and said, “Hu Youshan can finally settle this, you can send people over to settle it.”
“Yes, your servant will send someone to handle it.” Joy appeared on Sun Ning’s face. He was happy that Fu Yuheng was finally able to suppress the Ninth Prince’s rebellion. Fortunately, there was no bloodbath.
Looking at Sun Ning’s leaving figure, his eyes shone like torches, his thoughts floated far away.
In the imperial power, there were no brothers.
Fu Yuheng tapped the table lightly with his fingertips. A trace of affection flashed across his eyes. It was all thanks to her this time. Otherwise, he would probably need a long time.
But how she did it, he was actually curious.
He put away the case, got up and walked outside.
It was the beginning of spring, and the grass on the ground was letting out a green mist. Shen Qingwan, dressed in white, sat in the middle of the yard.
“Truly, it has been three days since I last saw him. I should have a whole new level of respect for him.” Fu Yuheng approached with a smile on his face. “I didn’t expect that my concubine would be so intelligent.”
Shen Qingwan was a little startled upon hearing his words, but kept it to herself, “Your majesty praises me too much. Chenqie didn’t do much. Chenqie just did what chenqie was supposed to do and wanted to share Your Majesty’s worries.” Her tone was as indifferent as before, but her expression was slightly raised, with a hint of complacency on her face.
Since he had already guessed it, there was no need for her to hide it any longer.
Fu Yuheng sat down next to her and helped himself to a cup of tea. He twirled the tea on his finger tip, “Now, other than the two hidden dangers, there’s only one stone and two birds. I’m afraid even I can’t think of such a plan, thanks to you. “It looks like it’s my fortune to meet you.” There was a teasing look in his eyes, but it was actually what he was thinking.
If she had not reminded him, he would not have realized that the person he had been ignoring had actually had ill intentions towards him, and that would have given him a fright. Fortunately, he had discovered it in time. This was the only way he could prevent anything from happening ahead of time.
Shen Qingwan did not refuse, and only gave a shallow smile. She stared at the teacup in his hand, “Is the emperor praising chenqie?” This made him seem a bit more mischievous, and the alert between her brows loosened.
He nodded his head and blew on the steam coming from the tea as he slowly took a sip. He always loved to drink tea, but he felt that the tea here was much better than elsewhere. Perhaps because he was in a good mood.
“Of course, beloved concubine, do you want any rewards?” He reached out and pulled her into his embrace.
She shook her head instead. “Right now, it isn’t appropriate for the emperor to give chenqie any sort of reward. Something like this just happened in the palace; this is the emperor’s way of showing too much pleasure. I’m afraid someone might fall ill!”
Compared to his happy expression, she was much calmer. When these words left his mouth, it didn’t make him pause for a moment. On the contrary, he had forgotten such an important matter because he was relieved. He slightly shook his head, finding it a little funny. Right now, it was not as clear as the girl in his embrace thought it was.
“Forget it, we can discuss about it after this matter. I am rather curious about your methods. Can you tell me what you think?” Thinking of the reason for his visit, Fu Yuheng changed the topic.
But Shen Qingwan lowered her eyes. “Doesn’t Your Majesty think that chenqie is being too scheming?” Even she herself felt a little unwell …
