At three o'clock in the morning, the sun slowly woke up.
With a headache, he stood up holding his arms and glanced nervously at his side.
Xiao Junze is no longer here.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Chaoyang wanted to get out of bed.
"Vixen, get out of here! Little bitch, get out of here!"
"Shen Chaoyang!"
Outside the door, there was the noise of Murong Ling.
Chaoyang sighed and shook his head.
idiot……
"Shen Chaoyang!"
"Ling Fei, the princess was not feeling well last night and is still resting. Please don't shout."
"Mother, you can't come in."
"Get away!"
"ah!"
Chunlan's cry came from outside the courtyard.
It was obvious that Murong Ling was very ruthless.
Chaoyang opened the door and looked at Murong Ling who had come to the door to cause trouble.
"I wonder why Concubine Ling came here so early in the morning?"
"Fox!" Murong Ling rushed forward and was about to hit Chaoyang.
"Bang!" Chaoyang dodged and Murong Ling was thrown into the air and fell to the ground.
"Such a shrewish behavior, the tutor of the Murong family is really..." Chaoyang laughed sarcastically and spoke again. "Oh, I almost forgot, the empress is not a member of the Murong family, but a concubine of the Southwest Wang family. It turns out that the Southwest King is also You are so clueless and uneducated about how to teach your daughter!"
"Shen Chaoyang, who do you think is uneducated!" Murong Ling got up, full of anger. "What are you doing standing still? Give me a slap!"
"This is the imperial palace, and I am His Majesty's concubine. I can't touch you, a little princess? Give me a fight!"
Chaoyang glanced at Chunlan thoughtfully, and Chunlan nodded at Chaoyang, with worry in her eyes.
Chaoyang didn't resist and stood quietly.
…
Royal study room.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
"Who's making the noise?"
"I want to see Your Majesty. I am Qian'er, the maid next to Concubine Ling."
In the hall, Xiao Junze walked out with a sullen face.
"Your Majesty, the young lady failed to wait for Your Majesty last night. This morning I heard that Your Majesty stayed at Qingshan Pavilion and she went to live with Princess Chaoyang..." Qian'er spoke nervously, with tears in her eyes. "Qian'er doesn't want the young lady to make the same mistake again and again. She has already caused the princess to lose her child, but this time..."
"Bah!" Xiao Junze threw the letter in his hand, his expression suddenly changed, and he hurried to Qingshan Pavilion.
Murong Ling...
It’s still unclear whether she deceived him, but she provoked Chaoyang again and again!
…
Qingshan Pavilion.
"Empress!"
"Your Majesty, you can't touch our princess. You can't do this without His Majesty's order."
Seeing how cruel Murong Ling's people were, Chunlan felt heartbroken and cried to protect Chaoyang.
Chaoyang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and waited for Murong Ling to take action.
"Get away!" Murong Ling was so aggressive that she kicked Chunlan away and then slapped her with her hand.
"Shen Chaoyang, I'm warning you, Your Majesty belongs to me..."
"Who's yours?"
Outside Qingshan Pavilion, Xiao Junze barged in, and the air pressure became more and more condensed.
"Your Majesty..." Murong Ling backed away in panic. What's going on? Doesn't it mean that His Majesty won't come over because he has something important to do?
He clenched his hands nervously, not knowing how to hide it. "Your Majesty... no, it's not like what you see. It's... it's Shen Chaoyang. It's her... she provoked me first."
"Last night there was a cold wind in the morning sun. I was still awake when I left. How could she provoke you?" Xiao Junze suppressed his anger. In his memory, Murong Ling was an extremely gentle and brave woman. How could she become like this?
"Your Majesty..." Murong Ling cried aggrievedly. "Last night was your wedding day. You left Ling'er and came to see her. Where did you put me?"
Murong Ling cried and spoke again. "At the beginning, His Majesty said that he would be good to me and would protect me for the rest of his life, but now he leaves Ling'er to guard the empty room alone..."
Xiao Junze frowned, focusing on Chaoyang's red and swollen cheeks.
"Your Majesty... Chaoyang was wrong." Chaoyang helped Chunlan stand up, her figure a little sloppy. "Chaoyang should not have kept Your Majesty overnight."
"Chaoyang!" Xiao Junze stepped forward, pinched Chaoyang's cheek and took a look.
Then he turned around with anger and looked at the maids who took action. "You are so brave!"
"Your Majesty..." Chaoyang pulled off Xiao Junze's clothes and signaled him to be patient. "Generals of Dayu frequently disturbed the people at the border. Last night, Your Majesty stayed all night to discuss marriage matters, which caused Concubine Ling to misunderstand."
Murong Ling frowned and looked at Xiao Junze dubiously. "Your Majesty...is this really true?"
"You were impulsive in this matter." Xiao Junze clenched his fingers and looked back at Chaoyang worriedly. "Find an imperial doctor to take a look."
"It's just a few slaps..." Chaoyang sneered. Murong Ling could even get rid of the child in her belly, let alone a few slaps.
Xiao Junze's fingers tightened even more, and he followed Chaoyang's plan and left.
Last night, he promised Chaoyang to ‘let the tiger return to the mountain’.
"Your Majesty..." Seeing Xiao Junze leave without saying a word, Murong Ling felt happy. Was Xiao Junze acquiescing to her attack on Chaoyang?
"Princess..." Chunlan swallowed harder and supported Chaoyang. "Xiao Guizi, go get some ice water quickly."
"It doesn't matter." Chaoyang shook his head. "Let people spread rumors in the palace that Your Majesty only favors Concubine Ling and allows Concubine Ling to injure the princess."
Only if the news about Murong Ling's favor spreads out, will Xiao Chengen and the Murong family believe it.
People from the Murong family will get carried away.
"Is it really useful?" Chunlan felt sorry for Chaoyang.
"Judging from Murong Ling's IQ, the Murong family are also idiots." Chaoyang sneered. The Murong family followed Prince Yu's rebellion and went to Jiangnan. This was an extremely stupid move.
He was not loyal to the prince, but chose Xiao Chengen. The whole family was not very bright.
…
Zhengyang Hall.
"Concubine Ling, please go back. Your Majesty is tired and needs to rest."
Murong Ling chased Xiao Junze all the way back to Zhengyang Palace, but Xiao Junze didn't want to keep her.
"Brother Junze..." Murong Ling called Xiao Junze's name.
"Come in." Xiao Junze agreed.
Murong Ling instantly became arrogant, pushed the eunuch away and ran in.
"Brother Junze, I knew you wouldn't be really angry with me." Murong Ling rushed up and hugged Xiao Junze. "Brother Junze, Ling'er doesn't like Chaoyang, can you let her out of the palace?"
What qualifications does a princess who wants to marry have to stay in the harem?
"I have good news to tell you." Xiao Junze glanced at Murong Ling. "I ordered your uncle and several uncles to be released. I know that I have wronged you by making you my concubine, so naturally I have to treat your family well.
"
"Really?" Murong Ling looked at Xiao Junze in shock, her heartbeat accelerated and she hugged Xiao Junze and cried. "Brother Junze... you should be nice to Ling'er."
"Is Ling'er unhappy?" Xiao Junze asked lightly.
"Happy." Ling'er smiled happily. "Early this morning, my aunt sent someone to send a message, saying that she will be attending the wedding in three days. Can Your Majesty accompany Ling'er?"
"Of course I have to accompany you, otherwise how can I let people know how important Ling'er is to me." Xiao Junze nodded in agreement with a very natural expression.
"Brother Junze..." Ling'er started to cry again. "Ling'er knew that he was going back to the Southwest Palace for his relatives, but the Murong family was sealed off and his aunt and uncle were now living in ruins. Ling'er felt heartbroken when he saw it."
"Ling'er misses home?" Xiao Junze asked with a smile.
"Hmm..." Murong Ling nodded.
"Then go back to Murong's house."
A hint of darkness flashed in Xiao Junze's eyes. He had never felt that Murong Ling was so greedy.
Asking him to let Murong's family go without telling him, but also to give him a reward?
Is this really arrogance or stupidity?
The Murong family is guilty of treason. Even if he loves Murong Ling wholeheartedly, he is definitely not a foolish king!
