Chapter 278 Late-night Interview

Hua Rongrong smiled coldly, as if she heard some joke: "Haha, what does this matter have to do with me? You ran over to me in the middle of the night to tell me that my master wanted to rebel?"

Ao Xue couldn't help but be stunned. She didn't expect that the imperial concubine would say this. Didn't she and the emperor fall in love with each other very much? Is it because the child is gone that the imperial concubine doesn't even want the emperor?

"Imperial Concubine, everything I say is true. The emperor only has you in his heart. Even if you don't think about the emperor, you still have to save the people in the world. Once General Peng rebelled, the people in the world will suffer, and this will not benefit you!" Ao Xue said anxiously. Why did the imperial concubine suddenly become abnormal? Could it be that she is really the same as the legendary one, because the little prince's death was discouraged by anything?

The smile on Hua Rongrong's face was even more weird, and he said with interest: "When did Aoxue care so much about the people of the world? Aoxue has always been very sincere to your master, and he helped her poison me repeatedly. Why did he come to me to say bad things about her now? I don't understand what you want to do? Do you have to take crazy revenge in this palace to be satisfied?" Aoxue knew that Hua Rongrong could hardly believe in herself, so she had to start her experience from the beginning.

Hua Rongrong didn't have so much patience. After yawning, she waved her hand: "You don't need to say anything. I don't care about anything you said. It's his business for the emperor to drink and live. Since the Queen said that this is a good thing, why bother me? You'd better go back. Today I will assume that nothing has happened.

"Empress! You must save the emperor. The lives of my family are all in your hands." Aoxue wanted to say something, but Hua Rongrong was already lying on the bed and had no intention of listening to Aoxue's words anymore.

"Go away quickly." Nu Yi blasted Aoxue out with a bad expression and returned to the Evergreen Palace.

Hua Rongrong had already sat up again. After seeing Nu Yi coming back, she whispered: "Call Yaqing over here."

Nu Yi responded respectfully: "Yes." A blink of an eye, Yaqing walked over.

"Empress, how could Aoxue come?" Nu Yi had already told Yaqing about Aoxue's visit in the middle of the night, and couldn't help but ask.

"The emperor has been drinking these days?" Hua Rongrong asked. Since he parted with Shangguan Chen that day, Hua Rongrong has been immersed in his grief and has not cared about Shangguan Chen's feelings at all. Just now, Aoxue told him that Shangguan Chen was immersed in wine all day long and numbing himself with wine. Hua Rongrong's heart suddenly ached.

"Yes, since the emperor met the empress that time, he has been drinking all day long. He basically never took a step out of Chaoyang Hall except for going to court." Yaqing said carefully as she observed Hua Rongrong's expression.

Her fists were clenched, and her long nails were deeply trapped in the flesh. Hua Rongrong gritted her teeth with hatred: "Send a message to the emperor so that he can restore his normal life from tomorrow. As an emperor, how can he be immersed in the love between children and children and unable to extricate himself? It's really disappointing!"

"Empress." Yaqing said in shock. It seemed that the Empress was really angry this time. Fortunately, the Empress still cared about the Emperor, so there would be hope in the future.

"Okay, let's go, I'm going to rest." Hua Rongrong waved her hand and said coldly.

The Buddhist temple next to the Evergreen Hall was soon completed. Although it was small, it was exquisite, especially the precious figure with a gold-plated body, which revealed the solemnity of peace.

After Yaqing waited for the emperor to finish the morning court, she immediately conveyed Hua Rongrong's words to the emperor intact.

Shangguan Chen was delighted. Although Hua Rongrong's words were cold, they revealed his concern for Shangguan Chen, just as if the land that had been drought had suddenly been nourished by a rain of sweet rain. Shangguan Chen felt much more refreshed.

"Is Rongrong okay now? How is her body recovering?" Shangguan Chen asked excitedly.

"Since the emperor wants to know, why don't you go to greet the Empress in person?" Yaqing said with a smile on her face.

"I..." Shangguan Chen hesitated slightly, "I am afraid that the imperial concubine is still angry with me. I just don't want her to hate me..."

Shangguan Chen kept blaming himself for his child's affairs, and he could not overcome the hurdle in his heart. An invisible pressure was like a powerful net, often trapping Shangguan Chen in it and unable to extricate himself.

"Your Majesty, this matter has passed, and you still have to look forward. The Empress has copied Buddhist scriptures every day and has calmed down a lot. As long as you and Empress get reconciled, the child will eventually have it." Yaqing sighed slightly and advised.

Shangguan Chen nodded: "Well, I understand all these principles. You don't have to persuade me anymore. I'll go find Rongrong now."

After saying that, he walked out.

Hua Rongrong was wearing a plain white body, kneeling on the futon, gently knocking on the wooden fish, chanting with her eyes closed.

Feeling this faint sandalwood aura, I calmed down a lot.

Shangguan Chen walked in softly, not daring to disturb Hua Rongrong Qingxiu, but just knelt aside and looked at the focused Hua Rongrong seriously.

After this period of recuperation, Hua Rongrong's complexion has improved a lot, no longer as pale as before, but has a hint of rosy in her fairness, emitting a healthy luster.

A soft light emanated between the eyebrows, like a Buddha statue in front of them, revealing a wise light.

The Buddhist beads in their hands slid one by one in Hua Rongrong's slender hands, becoming shiny and warm, making people feel relieved, as if all the troubles in the world can be left behind here for the time being. Shangguan Chen didn't know how to face Hua Rongrong at first, but then suddenly calmed down.

After a long time, a long mantra of rebirth was finished reciting. Hua Rongrong's eyelashes trembled slightly and he slowly opened his eyes.

A handsome and familiar face in front of him was much more embarrassed at this time, which made Hua Rongrong's heart, which had just calmed down, ripples again.

"What are you here to do?" Hua Rongrong said in a low voice, but his eyes passed over Shangguan Chen and threw them on the Buddha statue, and the Buddhist beads in his hand were also turning faster and faster.

"Rongrong, I know you are still caring about me, but we have tried our best to the children. I know you are sad, but as long as we work hard, the children will always have them." Shangguan Chen stood in front of Hua Rongrong again, forcing Hua Rongrong to look directly at him and said.

"I'm not angry about that." Hua Rongrong lowered her eyes and said softly.

"Then why do you hide from me like this?" Shangguan Chen asked without giving Hua Rongrong the chance to escape.

Hua Rongrong looked up at Shangguan Chen. The face that he had kissed tens of thousands of times in his dreams day and night, and smiled indifferently: "I didn't hide from you, but I just haven't figured out how to face you."

He said that, he lowered his head slightly: "I was carefully protected by this child, but he still couldn't escape the disaster in the end. It's all my fault and I couldn't protect our two children, so I didn't know how to face you. Moreover, you should also focus on General Peng, right?"

Shangguan Chen heard the vague reproach in Hua Rongrong's words and smiled and said, "I know you are very disappointed with me, but we are so decadent during this period, and we are not without gains, right? The Queen and General Peng were both very active during this period. They have attracted many officials in the court. Let's expand the fishing net and wait to catch all the general Peng's all his followers."

Hua Rongrong looked at Shangguan Chen and then a little surprised slipped through her eyes: "Didn't you spend your days drinking and living there? It turns out that they are all appearances?"

Shangguan Chen smiled even more cunningly, like a fox who has been fishing for success: "If I really can't recover because of such a blow, what qualifications do I have to love you and protect you? I know that you are depressed, and I am also in pain for the dead child, but as a husband and a father, I must clear the enemy so that I can truly protect you, rather than stay by your side and comfort you all the time."

As he said that, he raised his hand and hugged Hua Rongrong into his arms, and smiled and said, "Rongrong, you are indeed stronger than I thought. Believe me, I will definitely avenge you and your children."

Hua Rongrong's hard heart was completely destroyed. Tears appeared in her eyes, but she was still stubborn and refused to let it fall.

"Chen, if you have something to do in the future, you must tell me that we have experienced enough things. I don't want us to misunderstand each other anymore." Back in Shangguan Chen's warm arms, Hua Rongrong felt at ease. Since the child disappeared, Hua Rongrong felt like she had been hollowed out. Only at this time did the confident and intelligent Hua Rongrong gradually come back.

He raised his head, Hua Rongrong stared at Shangguan Chen's face in a daze, raised his hand to stroke Shangguan Chen's embarrassing face, Hua Rongrong's heart was so distressed: "Even if this is the case, you don't have to torture yourself like this. You are always mine, how can you be tortured like this because of others?"

Shangguan Chen hurriedly raised his hand and grabbed Hua Rongrong's hand tightly and pressed it tightly on his face, for fear that the soft little hand would be an hallucination, so he pulled back: "Rongrong, promise me that this matter will be over, don't torture yourself for the child's affairs. We both cheer up. Take good care of your body. I will remove General Peng and don't let our children wait in heaven for too long."

Hua Rongrong's heart was extremely soft as Shangguan Chen said. At this moment, she finally burst into tears and smiled: "Well, I promise you."

Shangguan Chen hugged Hua Rongrong even tighter and said loudly: "Now that General Peng has about half of his generals surrendered to us. In addition, the army led by General Murong has exceeded the team in General Peng's hands. In addition, the evidence of crime has been collected, so it is time for us to close the net."

Hua Rongrong sat up and shook her head when she heard this: "It's not the time. Although General Peng's real power is not as good as us, it is not a small number after all. If we meet each other, the people will be the ones that will endure it. If we tolerate it, it's better to take back the power without spending one soldier."

Shangguan Chen looked at Hua Rongrong with some surprise: "No need for one soldier? How could this be possible? How could General Peng be so obedient and hand over the military power obediently?"

A smile flashed across Hua Rongrong's face: "Just leave this matter to me. Just concentrate on collecting General Peng's evidence of crime. We must do our best to ensure the safety and interests of the people, so that you can be a truly good emperor."

In the Jiaofang Hall, a maid hurriedly ran to the queen and knelt on the ground and said, "The Empress is not good, the Emperor and the Imperial Concubine have made up, and they are in the Buddhist temple at this time."

Peng Yuanyuan was holding a handful of exquisite golden scissors to trim the plum blossoms that had just been picked. After hearing the news, she shook her hand and cut her index finger of the other hand to break out a deep wound.

"Hiss..." Peng Yuanyuan took a breath of air conditioning, then turned her head and kicked the little palace maid kneeling on the ground to the ground: "What's the noise? I'm still so irritable here in this palace. What's the use of living! Come on, pull her out and chop her!"

The little palace maid saw that the queen was disturbed by her fingers and her fingers were broken, so she turned pale. After hearing this, she was so scared that she fainted and collapsed on the ground without moving.

Die'er hurriedly ran to the medicine cabinet aside, took out the cotton cloth and medicinal wine, and walked forward carefully: "Empress, please calm down, I will help you bandage the wound first."

Peng Yuanyuan was still angry, and the pain in her hands made Peng Yuanyuan want to make the culprit who fell to the ground pay the price of bleeding.
