"Don't be angry, and don't get confused. Liu Zhensheng is not that easy to deal with." Shen Ning whispered to comfort Xiao Junhe. "You and I, no matter what Liu Zhensheng wants to do, we will be here to stop him."

Shen Ning was a little worried, was there a traitor around Xiao Junhe? Otherwise...why did Liu Zhensheng suddenly become alert?

If Liu Zhensheng hadn't been the spy next to Xiao Junhe, how could he suddenly change his mind?

Liu Zhensheng holds military power in his hands and has always been arrogant. He doesn't take anyone seriously. This time... it's a little strange.

The only thing that can explain the past, except that there are experts around Liu Zhensheng, is that he heard some rumors.

"Your Majesty, be careful of the people around you. Walls have ears. If there is any news, it can easily scare others." Shen Ning reminded Xiao Junhe.

"There is no trustworthy person around me." Xiao Junhe just felt a little ironic.

As an emperor, he had few people he could trust around him.

"You have me." Shen gazed up at Xiao Junhe with a burning gaze. You still have me. Don't be afraid, I will protect you.

No matter how difficult the road ahead is.

Xiao Junhe's eyes froze for a moment, and he reached out to hold Shen Ning in his arms. "Obviously... I should be the one to protect you."

"Husbands and wives are meant to support each other, why do they care so much?" Shen Ning said softly, resting her forehead on Xiao Junhe's chest. "Liu Zhen claimed to be ill, and Liu Wanying was controlled by the Queen Mother. The court seemed to be controlled by Suppression makes things calm, but in fact, it is more dangerous."

Xiao Junhe nodded.

This is why he is angry.

"We can't sit back and wait for the other side to attack. The Sima family is the confidant of the Liu family. Liu Zhensheng asked Liu Wanying to hurt my child. I will always give him a gift in return."

Shen Ning's eyes darkened. "Ling concubine is from the Sima family, so we have to start with her."

Xiao Junhe glanced at Shen Ning. "Take good care of her first, don't be in a hurry."

"I want to touch them..." Shen Ning looked at Xiao Junhe hesitantly.

If she wants to touch these women in the harem, will Xiao Junhe be unhappy?

After all, he is the emperor and these are his women.

"Need my help? Just don't let me betray my appearance." Xiao Junhe warned Shen Ning in advance.

I feel helpless and want to laugh.

No matter what Shen Ning wants to do, he will rely on her.

But... don't push him into another woman's bed.

"Pfft!" Shen Ning couldn't hold back her laughter, which made her stomach hurt a little.

Xiao Junhe quickly held her in his arms and whispered comfort. "Don't move, you just gave birth to a baby."

"Xiao Junhe, people in the palace say that women who have just given birth are unclean, why do you still stay with me?" Shen Ning looked up at Xiao Junhe.

"I don't know these rumors, I only know that you are my wife, you gave birth to a child for me, you suffered, and I can't do anything but stay with you." Xiao Junhe put his chin against Shen Ning's head on.

Apart from accompanying her, he could do nothing, couldn't help Shen Ning's pain, and couldn't help her give birth to a child.

"It would be great if men could have children..." Shen Ning snickered and whispered.

"Well, that's good." Unexpectedly, Xiao Junhe responded seriously.

Shen Ning was in a good mood and stretched out her arms to hug Xiao Junhe. "Husband, I want a hug."

Shen Ning knows how to act coquettishly. If there were not these noisy trivial matters and these machinations, she and Xiao Junhe would be the only ones who would love each other and be a couple for the rest of their lives...

that would be nice.

Unfortunately, wishes are always good, and reality is reality after all.

Xiao Junhe smiled and held Shen Ning in his arms.

He liked Shen Ning the most when she was acting coquettishly. At this time, she was carefree, as if she didn't think about anything, she just relied on him and trusted him wholeheartedly.

"Your Majesty, where is your Majesty?"

"Your Majesty... something happened to Concubine Nian."

In the courtyard, there were anxious calls from palace maids and eunuchs.

Xiao Junhe's face darkened and he stood up.

Shen Ning's heart tightened.

Something happened to Huo Sinian?

"Don't worry." Shen Ning held Xiao Junhe's wrist. "It'll be fine."

Xiao Junhe nodded.

Liu Zhensheng was suddenly so quiet. Was he planning to touch Xiao Junhe?

"If we move Liu Wanying, Liu Zhensheng will definitely fight back. I thought that with his temperament, he would rebel directly, but I didn't expect... that he would actually play dirty. But... this can at least explain one thing, that is, Liu Zhensheng is also afraid of him. Your Majesty." Shen Ning said warily.

Xiao Junhe got up and sat in the wheelchair.

"Have a good rest and wait until I come back." Xiao Junhe rubbed Shen Ning's head.

Shen Ning was stunned for a moment, is he coming back?

I thought...he would avoid suspicion.

"I'll come back secretly." Xiao Junhe smiled.

Shen Ning gave birth to a child for him, and he always wanted to accompany him.

Even if it can't be upright.

Something in Shen Ning's heart moved violently, and her heartbeat was extremely fast.

Xiao Junhe... could always touch her heartstrings inadvertently.

…

The residence of the concubine.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Nian was assassinated, and the opponent was a top-notch master." His subordinates came to report. "No one was caught. Fortunately, Concubine Nian was not weak in martial arts and was only slightly injured. Otherwise... the consequences would be disastrous."

Xiao Junhe asked his men to push him into the room. "Did you see who the other party was?"

Huo Sinian's back was injured and he sat beside the bed. "Brother Junhe, don't worry, I'm fine."

Shaking his head, Huo Sinian glanced at the person behind Xiao Junhe.

Xiao Junhe said in a deep voice, "You all should step aside."

"Brother Jun He, Liu Zhen is afraid that he will lose his temper. He did not choose to rebel, but chose to warn you in this way. Obviously... he is still wary. He did not expect this person to be so vigilant. Huo Sinian spoke in a low voice. "He was not like this before. Liu Zhensheng is arrogant and does not take you seriously at all. Why suddenly..."

Huo Sinian is reminding Xiao Junhe that there are traitors around him.

"Brother Jun He, someone must have revealed our secret." Huo Sinian's face turned ugly. "Who else besides you and me knows the details? That day Shen Ning met Xiao Chengyin, and then Liu Zhensheng caused a stir. To be alert, my brother said that Xiao Chengyin met Liu Zhensheng at night, and he complained of illness the next day."

Huo Sinian suspected it was Shen Ning.

Not only was she suspicious, she was almost certain that Shen Ning was the one who did it.

Xiao Junhe's face darkened and he shook his head.

Shen Ning also suspected that someone around him had leaked the news.

"It can't be Shen Ning." Xiao Junhe trusted Shen Ning.

"Brother Jun He, do you know that woman? You clearly know that she wants to live and die before marrying you. In order not to marry you, she stayed with Xiao Chengyin and even lost the face of a noble lady in Kyoto. She even used Pressing her to the death, she begged the Prime Minister to find the late Emperor to break off the engagement, and she can't escape her involvement in each of these incidents."

Huo Sinian was a little excited and spoke uncontrollably.

Shen Ning, Shen Ning must have spread the news.

It was she who told Xiao Chengyin.

"Brother Jun He, if you believe me, let's see if Xiao Chengyin's people will come to see Shen Ning tonight. If there is a secret exchange between them, then she must be Xiao Chengyin's spy staying with you." Huo Sinian was very confident. Liu Zhensheng's men came to assassinate her and give Xiao Junhe a warning. Next... they have to discuss how to deal with Xiao Junhe.

Xiao Chengyin will definitely contact Shen Ning. After all, she is now in the limelight. She gave birth to the emperor's eldest son and was promoted to a noble concubine.
