Chapter 37 late night visitors
"Su Jin, do you think there is still a luminous pearl in Fengcheng Palace?"
Su Jin had to wipe away his tears and replied in a low voice: "This luminous pearl was a treasure paid in the East China Sea when the emperor ascended the throne. There were very few in the world. The East China Sea paid six tribute at a time. The emperor left two, two for you and two for the prince. What a gift is this? How can there be luminous pearl in Fengcheng Palace?"
"Don't forget, the prince's mansion was confiscated, and the two luminous pearls probably fell into the hands of the man who led the troops to confiscate the house at that time. If I remember correctly, the man who led the troops to confiscate the house at that time was Shu Guifei's brother, Assistant Minister Chen Jiaqing of the Ministry of War."
Lauren combed the mink hair on her shawl and casually chatted with her family. "You also know what a treasure the night pearl is. How dare he swallow it in Chen Jiaqing? If I hadn't guessed wrong, the night pearl must have been dedicated to the emperor. The emperor has always been generous and naturally gave it to Shu Guifei. At this time, it is placed in Fengcheng Palace."
"Empress..." Su Jinhong eyes, empress always don't like to care about these, she even talked about harem concubines are rare, when like today to talk about these? Su Jin listened to the heart sad.
Lauren smiled casually. "I am pregnant now, and it is inevitable that I am contaminated with some women's qi. Isn't it normal to talk about these? Otherwise, when will the boring days of this harem end?"
When is the end?
The imperial edict of death came today. How can the empress not know when it will end? Su Jin couldn't help it any longer. He knelt on the ground and cried.
Lauren didn't stop her. She sat on the bed and watched Su Jin kneel on the ground sobbing in a low voice. She watched her glittering and translucent tears slide down. She suddenly envied Su Jin. After so many things, she wanted to cry and could cry, but she couldn't shed tears.
Let her cry, cry happily, just as it is to help her cry out all her tears and grievances. Will it feel better?
Su Jin was tired of crying, and she was tired of watching. Without saying anything, she curled up in bed and slept.
"You put out all the lights. You don't have to watch me tonight. I want to be alone."
Su Jin knew that the empress was uncomfortable. When she was uncomfortable, she liked to be alone. She was not used to letting people see her sadness and fragility. Su Jin knew that Su Jin felt sorry for her and did as she told her.
"Aunt, are you on duty tonight?" Little maid is a little strange.
Su Jin spread the bedding outside the door and nodded, "Go to sleep. I'll guard the empress outside tonight. I'll call you again if there is something."
The empress is sad. Of course she has to watch. The empress doesn't want to see anyone around her. She just keeps outside. Now the prince is gone and the emperor has changed. In addition to her being around, the empress is too lonely!
It was already late at night. Lauren could not remember how she fell asleep. She only felt a warm wall leaning against her in her sleep. A big palm fell on her lower abdomen. She was so scared that she suddenly sat up from the bed.
In the dark, she can't see anything, and still can obviously feel someone in her bed.
She quietly tried to pull out the dagger under her pillow. Before she started, her hand was held by the man. Suddenly, both of them trembled.
The warm palm is so familiar that even if she has not seen anyone in March, she still recognizes who he is in one action. Tonight he conferred the new queen. Why did she come here?
In the dark, Herbert's eyes flashed slightly. Was the hand he had just touched the one she had broken her tail finger? Holding it in the palm of my hand, I still feel the pain of her tail finger.
That was the finger she voluntarily cut off in order to protect another man. The blood in front of William Temple that day and her stubbornness in front of the bamboo house are still vivid in my mind!
