Hope Should I Win Your Heart - C254 panic-stricken and helpless
At noon, Tuoba Min stood outside the residential hall and stamped her feet in hatred.
She had personally brewed the soup and sent it over to Fu Yuheng. She did not expect to be stopped outside the door by Sun Gonggong the moment she arrived.
“Oh, isn’t this Honorable Min?” Beautiful Yu saw this from afar, she swayed her sleeves and walked over, but her tone was strange, “What’s wrong? Why is she standing outside the door of the emperor’s chambers? Could it be that she was rejected when she threw herself into his arms? ” After saying that, he covered his mouth and laughed sarcastically.
It was difficult for her to suppress the anger in her heart. She took a few steps forward with the soup. However, when she was right in front of her, she suddenly tilted her body and spilled the entire bowl of soup on Li-Jin’s body.
“AHH!” A loud scream rang out.
At this time, Fu Yuheng was resting inside when he suddenly heard the cries from outside. He immediately came to his senses and sent his Sun Gonggong to check on what had happened.
“Aiyo, two young mistresses, what’s going on?” Seeing the two mistresses standing there in a daze, Sun Ning slapped his hands and legs as he shouted.
“How can big sister be like this? This is the soup that my sister painstakingly made! ” Seeing Sun Ning coming out, Tuoba Min’s face changed, and tears started to fall.
Beautiful Yu was obviously still in a daze as she looked at her clothes. However, when she raised her head, the person who was standing in front of her had already ran out crying. He opened his mouth, but nothing was clear.
“Sigh …” Lady Gongzi, take care of yourself! ” Sun Ning faintly sighed, as he was not someone that was easy to deal with. With that, he no longer paid any attention to her and returned to the hall to report back to Fu Yuheng.
“It’s just a little trick.” He placed his hand behind his head and glanced outside, revealing a disdainful smile. In the blink of an eye, he looked to Sun Ning, who was standing by the side, “To the left and right, it should be time for our Consort Xian to return, right?” As he said this, a hint of a smile appeared in his eyes. When he thought of that person, his mood became much happier.
“Yes.” As he replied, Sun Ning, who was serving at the side, also laughed secretly. It would probably be a few days since they last met, so he might miss his a bit.
“If not, why would this servant send someone back to the Concubine Xian?” Although he asked this, he had already made up his mind to leave.
As expected, Fu Yuheng’s eyes lit up when he heard this. “Mm, it’s time to bring her back. Send someone to prepare his. You must bring his back safely before tonight.” He forcefully suppressed the urge in his heart. He had been out for such a long time, shouldn’t he be able to calm his heart and return?
Sun Ning accepted his orders and went out to prepare.
Hua Xiangwei had also guessed that Shen Qingwan would be returning soon, hence she tried her best to please Fu Yuheng.
“Where is Sun Gonggong going?” Just as he was about to go to Fu Yuheng’s place to take a look, he found Sun Ning who had just came out. Logically speaking, he should be attending to him right now. At this time, he should have something to do.
“This servant greets Empress Zhao Yi.” The Sun Gonggong knew that Shen Qingwan would not be here for a few days. Hua Xiangwei was the most favored person in front of the emperor, hence her tone was very respectful, “The emperor has ordered this servant to do something. Empress Zhao Yi, are you planning to go …”
Hearing him say this, she knew that she probably wouldn’t be able to get anything out of him. “I was just thinking of going over to the emperor’s side to take a look.”
“I’m afraid that the emperor has already rested. Empress Zhao Yi should return!” Fu Yuheng had just instructed him to bring Shen Qingwan back to the palace. How could she possibly be asleep now? When she thought back to how he had acted just now, even if she had gone, it would have only been to shut the door. However, these things weren’t easy to say, so he could only say that he took a break.
As expected, after hearing those words, the smile on Hua Xiangwei’s face disappeared in a short while, and her expression became a little stiff. Her lips twitched as she said with a fake smile, “Since that’s the case, then I’ll go back later!” Saying that, he turned around and left as well. The handkerchief in her hand was tightly clenched, and a few wrinkles had already appeared due to the excessive force.
“Sigh …” Sighing, Sun Ning left.
“Wah Zhao Yi, do you have something to report?” When Gui mama saw her coming from afar, he also took a step forward and bowed.
“Is the empress here?” Hua Xiangwei looked into the room, but because the door was still closed, she could not see what was going on inside.
“In reply to Empress Zhao Yi, the empress is here. I wonder if there’s anything Empress Zhao Yi needs to report?” When Gui mama saw that she did not answer, his tone became more impatient. He was just fawning on the empress for a small token of his sincerity. He was probably going to forget his identity just because he was pampered these few days.
But at this time, Hua Xiangwei naturally could not care about the obvious mockery on Gui mama’s face. She was in a hurry to discuss something with Xiao Shushen.
“Then I shall trouble Wah Zhao Yi to wait here, this old servant will go in and report now.” Gui mama lowered his body, leaving her alone outside the door.
After waiting for a long time, the door finally opened.
“Wah Zhao Yi, come in.” The Gui mama’s voice came from inside.
Hua Xiangwei couldn’t wait any longer, shshequickly entered in two or three steps. When she accidentally tripped on the doorstep, he fell and laid flat on the ground, in a sorry state.
“Oh, what’s wrong with little sister Zhaoyi? Why is it that when we first came in, this group was so grand? ” Xiao Shushen sat in front of the dressing table and handed the hairpin to Gui mama. Seeing this, she seemed to be surprised.
He knew he’d lost face like this, but he had to get up and dust off his body. “I’m really anxious and confused. Otherwise I wouldn’t have let the empress sister see the joke.” The hairpin on his head had become crooked from the fall, but he could only adjust it slightly.
“Oh? What has made my sister so anxious? ” Xiao Shushen was surprised, she did not know what caused her to panic like this.
“I’m afraid the Consort Xian is returning to the palace.” Her eyes were clearly filled with disgust, but her expression was only that of a worried person who just happened to be in the right place.
It wasn’t easy for her to get closer to Fu Yuheng. If Shen Qingwan were to return now, he would definitely have a whole new level of respect for her. When that time came, where would she be able to find a foothold? This was also why she had hurriedly come to find Xiao Shushen.
“Is the news true?” Hearing that, Xiao Shushen also frowned, she was indeed a big stumbling block, if she did not remove it quickly, the situation would become worse and worse.
A trace of viciousness flashed across his eyes.
“Does little sister have any good ideas?” She waved her hand, allowing the palace maids, who were serving in the surroundings, to leave first.
