C19 False Depression

At night.

The emperor had long finished dealing with national affairs today and arrived at the Linxiang Yard. He saw that Ling Chener was actually still awake today.

Although it wasn't too late, in the past, as long as the Emperor came, Ling Chener would always be lying on the bed, sound asleep, no matter what happened.

"Are you waiting for me?" the Emperor asked Ling Chener.

She has opened her heart to me, the Emperor thought.

"Yes, your majesty!" Ling Chener answered.

"How can I not do things for others after receiving such a huge gift from others?" Ling Chener muttered in her heart.

The Emperor walked over and gently embraced Ling Chener. He whispered into her ear, "My beloved concubine, what business do you have with me?"

Ling Chener turned her head away unnaturally and said, "Your majesty, chenqie went to the wedding palace today."

The Emperor released her.

"Is that so? Didn't the two of you get into a fight a few days ago? You won't get into any trouble again, will you? "

"Today is Imperial Consort Yun's birthday. Imperial Consort Yun invited Chener to be her guest. Does the Emperor still remember Imperial Consort Yun's birthday?" Ling Chener asked.

"How could This Emperor remember these things!" the Emperor said coldly.

"Today at the birthday banquet, Imperial Consort Yun even mentioned the Emperor. She really misses you!"

"Besides you, which woman in the harem doesn't miss me!" The Emperor thought to himself, could it be that she wants to push me to Imperial Consort Yun's side?

"Chenqie wants the emperor to visit Imperial Consort Yun at the wedding palace." Ling Chener said carefully.

The emperor gave Ling Chener a forceful look. After a moment, he said, "Alright, I shall grant you your wish!"

After saying that, the emperor turned around and left the Linxiang Yard area.

Along the way, the emperor was very angry. She hasn't changed in the slightest for so long. He thought that she would be slowly converted by him, but now she wanted to push him to another woman's side. This heartless woman!

"The emperor has arrived!"

Hearing the sound of the report, Imperial Consort Yun rushed out to receive it. She didn't expect Ling Chener to really bring the Emperor here, and so quickly at that!

"Chenqie pays her respects to Your Majesty!"

"My beloved concubine, get up!"

"Thank you, your majesty!"

"I wonder if Your Majesty can come over at this hour to have a meal. If you don't, chenqie will ask the servants to prepare it as soon as possible."

"Not yet!"

"Chenqie will have the servants prepare everything for you!"

Ling Chener had never cared about herself when it came to eating. Every time she went to Ling Chener's place, all she cared about was sleeping.

"I heard that today is the birthday of my beloved concubine, so I've come to visit you."

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Chenqie only casually spoke a few words that she missed the Emperor. I didn't expect Yonger Sister Chener to be so considerate." Imperial Consort Yun pretended to be shy.

After the meal.

Imperial Consort Yun said to the emperor, "Let this concubine serve the emperor to sleep."

"Alright!"

— —

The emperor came to Imperial Consort Yun's bedside and spread open his arms. Imperial Consort Yun skillfully helped the emperor undress, and after she was done, Imperial Consort Yun gently hugged the emperor. Her head was pressed against the emperor's warm chest as she shyly called out, "Your majesty … "Go …"

The rage that the Emperor had been suppressing in his Linxiang Yard these past few days was triggered by Imperial Consort Yun's voice at once. He picked up Imperial Consort Yun and threw her onto the bed … The room was filled with the radiance of spring …

Ling Chener lay alone on the bed, feeling a little lonely. She was certain that the emperor wouldn't come tonight, so she didn't have to worry about anything anymore. Fortunately, she hadn't fallen in love with the emperor yet.

The next day.

In the morning, the Empress, Imperial Consort Yun, Imperial Consort Jin, and a group of people entered the Linxiang Yard.

"Chener pays respects to the empress, Imperial Consort Yun, and esteemed Imperial Consort Jin. I wonder what important matters the various empress are here for?"

Early in the morning, Ling Chener saw Imperial Consort Yun and Imperial Consort Jin bring the Empress into the Linxiang Yard for no apparent reason.

The empress spoke up first. "Yonger Sister Chener, Imperial Consort Yun said you stole her hairpin. The palace is guilty of theft, so I have no choice but to investigate. If not, Yonger Sister Chener's innocence will be restored!"

"Stole a hairpin? When did Chener steal a hairpin?" Ling Chener asked Imperial Consort Yun.

You said that the jade hairpin on my head is very pretty, and you even insisted that I take it off for you to see. After eating, I was slightly drunk, and you were the one who helped me into the inner room. When I woke up this morning, the hairpin was gone, and you were the only one who entered my room yesterday.

Ling Chener thought to herself, "This bitch flipped her face faster than flipping a book. Yesterday, Yonger Sister Chener was shouting and wanted to frame me for stealing her hairpin. The people from the harem really can't believe it!"

"Sister Imperial Consort Yun is joking. It's just a hairpin. If Chener likes it, the Emperor can reward her a little. Why would she steal it?" Ling Chener said calmly.

That jade hairpin is not just any ordinary hairpin. That jade hairpin is unique and priceless, it was specially forged for me by my father using good jade and sent to my wedding. I love it very much, I never thought that when I was kind enough to treat you, you would steal the jade hairpin while I was asleep! Imperial Consort Yun revealed a sinister expression.

"Esteemed Empress, Chener did not steal the hairpin. It was Imperial Consort Yun who framed Chener!" Ling Chener said anxiously, on the ground.

"If so, doesn't that mean the empress would know once she searches the Linxiang Yard?" Imperial Consort Jin said.

The Queen spoke to the servants, "Someone come! Search through all of these Linxiang Yard for me, and I'll find out everything in detail; I won't let a single corner of them go! "

Once the empress gave the order, the palace maids and eunuchs dispersed one by one, rummaging through the Linxiang Yard …

Then she said amiably to Ling Chener, "Wake up Yonger Sister Chener, I'll let them carefully investigate and I'll definitely restore my sister's innocence."

Ling Chener stood up with a slightly nervous and worried expression. Imperial Consort Yun and Imperial Consort Jin laughed complacently as they looked at her. They had heard from the people planted in Linxiang Yard, so they saw Ling Chener bring a embroidered box into the room.

Ling Chener heard the thumping sound of a kick in her room. Was this a search for something, or was this a robbery?

The palace maids and eunuchs searched the Linxiang Yard for a long time, but at that moment, the Consul Eunuch walked out from within the house …
