Chapter 167 Hot Heart
Zhou Lingge couldn't help but curl her lips and smiled. She raised her hand and poked Qiao'er's forehead: "Don't feel sorry for men, otherwise you will suffer in the future."
"He's the emperor, so naturally he has a lot to bear, but he's also gained a lot. Isn't the power to command the entire world in his hands?"
"He's the most powerful man in the world. If he's also pitiful, he wouldn't have any happiness. What about the others? Aren't they even more miserable than him? These concubines in the harem, which one isn't desperately trying to win favor and win honor for their family. Which palace maid isn't groveling and kneeling every day to make a living? If one of them accidentally offends the master, they will lose their head."
Everyone living in this world has responsibilities... and lives under a yoke!
There are very few truly happy and free souls. Even monks have to ring the bell and chant Buddha's name at regular times every day.
Zhou Lingge touched the wet mark and suppressed the smile on her face.
She just woke up when Qin Feiling came.
She could clearly feel the careful movements he made when he kissed her, as well as the refreshing and pleasant scent from his nose that sprayed on her face.
The temperature around him was obviously so cold, but at that moment, she seemed to feel his burning heart.
But she was not moved at all.
Her heart has been frozen, how can the occasional scorching heat he exudes melt her?
Eunuch Liu stayed up all night and investigated.
Finally, at daybreak, everything was revealed.
After Qin Feiling left the court, Eunuch Liu knelt in front of him with a tired face.
"Your Majesty... things seem a little complicated."
Qin Feiling rubbed his eyebrows, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
"No matter how complicated the case, they will all be severely punished. Send someone to gather all the concubines in the harem at Fengluan Palace..."
"Whoever does evil will have to pay the price."
Eunuch Liu responded in a low voice.
The news soon spread to the six palaces.
Zhou Lingge's eyes were filled with smiles as she stared at her beautiful face in the bronze mirror.
"Zhou Shiya...you're going to feel pain soon."
"I'm so happy!"
She slowly stood up and headed towards Fengluan Palace.
When she arrived, Concubine Shu was just being helped down from her sedan chair.
Concubine Shu’s face was pale and she greeted Zhou Lingge weakly.
Zhou Lingge greeted her enthusiastically, exempting her from the formalities of greeting. "Since Sister Shufei is seriously injured, there's no need to greet her."
"I heard that last night, His Majesty was worried about Sister Shufei, so he stayed with her all night, right? So it seems that His Majesty still has Sister in his heart..."
Shufei's heart was suddenly stabbed.
She clenched her palms tightly.
His Majesty was in Fenghe Palace in the first half of the night, but was called away by the Queen in the second half.
That bitch Zhou Shiya just happened to fall ill at this critical moment. She was clearly guilty and wanted to use the royal heir to exonerate herself.
She would not let Zhou Shiya succeed. She must make Zhou Shiya pay for her child's life with blood.
Zhou Lingge stared at Concubine Shu's face, which was turning pale and blue, and she felt relieved.
Although Concubine Shu is now fighting with the Queen, she will not make peace with Concubine Shu.
They are still enemies.
She would not establish any so-called friendship or cooperative relationship with the women in the harem.
In her eyes, these concubines were obstacles that she needed to eliminate.
She will show no mercy to anyone who stands in her way of climbing up.
She would never be soft-hearted towards anyone.
Zhou Lingge pretended to have suddenly thought of something. She pinched her handkerchief to cover the corner of her lips and said, "Oh, I seem to have forgotten. Did His Majesty go to Fengluan Palace again in the second half of the night?"
"Sister Shufei, you're truly pitiful. For so many years, you didn't know how your child died. Now, with great difficulty, you've finally discovered some of the mystery. Who would have known... that someone would use the royal heir as a life-saving talisman?"
Concubine Shu clenched her fists tightly. She had no intention of paying attention to Zhou Lingge and went straight to the main hall.
She was surrounded by a cold aura.
There is a determination to fight to the death.
Zhou Lingge succeeded in sowing discord and raised her hand to gently stroke her hair.
She looked up at the golden plaque of Fengluan Palace.
There was a hint of gloom in her eyes.
Today she will just watch the show. Zhou Shiya, your good days are over.
The inner hall of Fengluan Palace.
Nanny Zhou was standing alone by the bed. She looked at the empty hall and then moved closer to Zhou Shiya. She took out a porcelain bottle from her arms, opened the lid with trembling hands, and shook it under Zhou Shiya's nose.
Zhou Shiya, who was originally drowsy, took a deep breath, and the next moment she slowly opened her eyes.
Nanny Zhou's eyes lit up and she held Zhou Shiya's hand tightly.
"My Lady, you're awake... This medicine is indeed effective. Madam Qian is truly an expert."
Zhou Shiya was a little dazed. She glanced around the inner hall...
She was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses.
"How long have I slept?"
Nanny Zhou quickly replied, "A whole night..."
"Where is Madam Qian? Has she entered the palace?" Zhou Shiya asked in a low voice.
Nanny Zhou quickly shook her head: "Nanny Qian hasn't come back yet, but it seems she should be soon."
"Your Majesty, I heard that Eunuch Liu has found a definite clue. I'm afraid the matter of the amulet can no longer be covered up. What should we do now?"
There was a coldness in Zhou Shiya's eyes.
"Originally, I thought the amulet was so secretive that no one would ever discover it. Who would have thought... a woman named Xie, who was about to die, would actually reveal the amulet's secret."
She gnashed her teeth in anger: "Now, the matter of the amulet is bound to be exposed."
As she spoke, she looked up at Madam Zhou, hesitant to speak.
Nanny Zhou didn't quite understand what she meant.
"My Lady...how should we respond?"
Zhou Shiya clenched her fists tightly, closed her eyes, and suppressed the emotions surging in her heart.
"Madam Zhou...you and I have been master and servant for many years. During these years, I have always regarded you as half my own mother. Besides my mother, the person I care about most is you, Madam Zhou."
"Madam Zhou, you should also treat me as your half-daughter, right?"
Nanny Zhou didn't expect Zhou Shiya to suddenly be so sentimental.
Her eyes turned red with emotion.
"How could this old slave be so lucky as to be half the mother of the Majesty? Just to hear these words from the Majesty, this old slave is satisfied... In this old slave's heart, no one is as important as the Majesty."
"For your majesty, this old slave can sacrifice everything and is willing to do anything for you."
Zhou Shiya's eyes were filled with emotion. She really couldn't bear to leave Nanny Zhou, but... having come to this point, she had to make a choice.
Otherwise, you will suffer the consequences if you hesitate to make a decision.
No matter what, she had to protect herself! Anyone could get into trouble, but not her!
