Betrayal + Suspicion
On the other side, Li Xing and others held a family meeting at the Li's house.
"Zhou Lao Di, what's your take on this matter?" Li Xing asked first.
"Are you still doubting me?" Zhou Hu looked at Li Xing in surprise, thinking he would believe him.
"What the Emperor said is not impossible. Isn't that right?" Li Xing did not refute Zhou Hu's words, but directly said that he had indeed been suspicious of this.
"Shu Fei becoming Empress would be beneficial for all of us, how could I possibly do such a thing?" Zhou Hu explained immediately.
"Isn't it better than having a daughter of one's own?" Li Xing asked back, and as soon as he had doubts in his mind, many things would become different.
The cooperative relationship between several people has begun to break down.
"Since Brother Li doesn't believe me, I think we don't have anything good to talk about. Take care of yourself!" After finishing speaking, Zhou Hu swung his sleeves and left, although he had indeed thought of such an idea, but didn't have the determination to do it.
This time, he unknowingly became a scapegoat for someone, letting him know that he would never let that person go.
What happened on Li Xing's side was immediately reported to Feng Shao Han by the dark guards.
"Now that we've started suspecting each other, let's take it a step further." Feng Shao Han said to An Yi.
"I understand." A respectful reply was given.
"How is Guifei doing?" Feng Shao Han thought of Ye Chuchu and asked.
"There are two dark guards following us." An Yi replied, the last time something happened between the noble consort and Ning Wang was related to them being sent on a mission. Originally thought that in the imperial palace, the noble consort would not have any problems, did not expect that during this period, such a big mistake occurred. Therefore, this time, even if their task is less, they will not choose to transfer people away from the noble consort's side again.
"What's going on with the Imperial Concubine today?" Feng Shao Han asked again.
"It's still not out today." This is exactly where the doubt lies, the imperial concubine seems to have never left the Zichen Palace, but thinking about it feels unbelievable, someone like the imperial concubine doesn't seem like the kind of person who can stay cooped up in a room for so long every day.
"Is that so?" Feng Shao Han knocked on the table, Ye Chuchu shouldn't have run out again. Wanting to be here, his face turned black again, but he had made several surprise inspections and hadn't found any problems, nor had these secret guards. He knew Ye Chuchu's martial arts were high, but it was really making him uneasy, especially since this woman kept saying she wanted to leave the palace all the time.
Feng Shao Han also clearly knew that the current Ye Chuchu would stay in Fang Gong, and had a great relationship with the Ye family in his hands. If it weren't for the Ye family being in his hands, would Ye Chuchu have left without hesitation, Feng Shao Han asked himself.
Feng Shao Han didn't want to let Ye Chuchu out of his sight at all, and he didn't know when it started, but he had already gotten used to the feeling of having Ye Chuchu by his side.
Ye Chuchu was his first woman, he didn't know if it was because of this reason, so he would be especially special to Ye Chuchu.
But no matter what, he had already been unable to let go of Ye Chuchu.
No matter what reason, if he can't let go, then he can only stay by his side and accompany him for a lifetime.
He would also give her everything she wanted, she wanted to be pampered, he gave it to her, because he had no interest in other women whatsoever. She wanted freedom, and he could give it to her, as long as she appeared before him before falling asleep. She didn't want to be bound, and he yielded to her, only letting two bodyguards keep an eye on her, although it wasn't very effective.
He broke countless examples for her, and he also wanted to get her return.
After An Yi left.
"Your Majesty, are you going to the residence of the Noble Consort tonight?" Li Quan asked cautiously, seeing that although the Noble Consort had been annoying the Emperor all day, the Emperor's attitude towards her seemed not to have changed much.
It can be said that the noble consort has received boundless favor and pampering, which is something many people in the harem are aware of.
Lian Shu Fei is also no match for her.
"These past few days have been quite busy, and I've neglected her. Inform Zichen Palace to prepare the Imperial Consort." Feng Shaoheng said, during this period of time, he indeed hadn't entered the harem in order to deal with the earthquake matter.
Now that everything has been taken care of, it's time to go see her.
Last time she had her period, this time she should be okay!
Feng Shao Han thought of this, and suddenly remembered the night he slept with Ye Chuchu, that was indeed a torture, but tonight, he must make up for it.
Feng Shao Han's face was filled with ambiguity, and Li Quan, who was standing beside him, exclaimed, "This imperial concubine has a great influence on the emperor!"
"Li Quan, you said that after I never gave her the 'supplement', is her belly already carrying my little prince?" Suddenly, Feng Shao Han suddenly remembered the decision he made back then. Seeing that Ye Chuchu was still quite obedient, he decided to let her bear him a child.
Does it exist now?
"This, Your Majesty has forgotten that when a woman menstruates, it means she is not pregnant?" Li Quan reminded cautiously, sincerely not wanting to dampen the emperor's enthusiasm, but this was common knowledge.
But it's not the emperor's fault either, the emperor is busy with state affairs every day, how would he think of these things?
"Is that so? It seems I haven't worked hard enough." Thinking this, Feng Shao Han had secretly made up his mind to work harder and plant his seed in Ye Chuchu's belly as soon as possible.
"Your Majesty, there are experienced midwives in the palace who know of postures that can be beneficial for a woman to conceive. Shall we try?" Li Quan suggested again, since the Emperor was so eager for Consort Gui to become pregnant, he might as well lend a hand; after all, if they succeeded, wouldn't the Emperor's reward go to him?
"Find someone to bring those paintings down. I'll study them carefully." Feng Shao Han ordered after glancing at Li Quan.
"Yes," Li Quan smiled and went down with a smile.
It seems that this harem will truly be the queen's domain from now on. The only question is how long the emperor's favor will last?
Night, Li's home.
At midnight, Li Xing walked out of his dark room. No one had ever thought that Li Xing's thoughts would be so deep.
"At your service, sir." The man in black bowed to Li Xing and said.
"How's the investigation going?" Li Xing asked calmly, he was very confident in his team's abilities.
"According to the investigation, it's indeed from the Zhou family, no doubt about it. Moreover, the X family also intervened in this matter, here is the evidence." The man in black handed over his investigative results to Li Xing.
Li Xing looked at it and snorted, "I didn't expect that they would betray me before we even started cooperating deeply. I thought they were temporary allies."
Li Xing and the three families reached a consensus, preparing to gather as much power as possible from the imperial court, compressing the emperor's power to the smallest extent, but did not expect to be blinded by some small interests so soon.
Those strategists under their command, what great achievements can they accomplish?
However, since it's already broken, he doesn't believe that relying on the Li family's power, he can't achieve great things.
"Put people in those refugees' porridge and poison them. We must make this epidemic spread, it's okay to kill some people." Li Xing said ruthlessly.
"Yes," replied the black-clad men reverently. "From birth, they were imprinted with the idea that everything about the Li family was honorable, and nothing else existed in their consciousness."
As long as it's something the Li family wants done, they'll definitely put in their best effort to complete it.
Inside the Imperial Palace
At this time, Ye Chuchu lit up her charm again. Tonight, Feng Shaohan was coming, and she had to deal with him.
But to be honest, last time Feng Shao Han's sharp sense of smell shocked her, and if this matter is exposed again, Ye Chuchu believes that with Feng Shao Han's temper, she will definitely not let her off.
One of the main reasons why this fragrance is useful is probably because Feng Xiao Han hasn't really experienced romance.
Ye Chuchu didn't know what reason made Feng Shaohan unwilling to touch those women, nor did she want to know why Feng Shaohan was willing to dote on her.
She had to understand that she mustn't get entangled with these people at all costs.
When Feng Shao stepped into the inner hall, he smelled the familiar scent again. His eyes flickered slightly, and for some reason, a hint of suspicion arose in his heart.
Holding her breath, Feng Shaojin slowly approached Ye Chuchu.
