C10 Appointment

After watching Qiao Yin leave with the army, Shen Yushi slowly retracted her reluctant gaze. It was because of her selfishness that Qiao Yin had been harmed. She did not know why, but she owed him a lot.

Just as Shen Yushi returned to her residence, she heard that the Emperor had actually sent her many gifts. She was at a loss as to what to do with the news.

"These were all sent by the Emperor?" She narrowed her eyes slightly, a dangerous look appearing within them.

Hearing Shen Yushi's tone, the guards in the mansion were a little confused. They then carefully said, "The eunuch in the palace also sent a message for the emperor to invite his wife for tea tomorrow at noon!"

"Oh?" A hint of amusement could be seen in her eyes. She had no intentions of looking for him, she never thought that Nangong Qing would deliver herself to his doorstep. Since that was the case, she wanted to have a taste of tomorrow's tea.

"I replied to that eunuch, and he said that I agreed!" She spoke softly before turning around to sit at the table and pour herself a cup of tea.

Nangong Qing tried to think of a way to take Qiao Yin away. She simply wanted to use this opportunity to get close to him so that she could obtain some benefits. However, this time she did have the wrong idea.

Thinking of this, Shen Yushi pursed her lips and curled them into a faint smile. Now that she had the chance, she had to make good use of it.

The next afternoon, Shen Yushi came to the teahouse as promised. She had a deep impression of this teahouse since she had often met up with Nangong Qing in her previous life.

Shen Yushi had just taken a step forward when she saw the impatient expression on Nangong Qing's face. However, she had made him wait for the time it took to make a cup of tea. It seemed like his feelings towards her were nothing more than that.

"There were some delays on the way, so the emperor has waited for a long time!" Her tone was as calm as ever, but for some reason, she felt that she was missing something.

When Nangong Qing saw Shen Yushi, she was stunned. She quickly stood up with a gentle smile and replied softly, "Don't worry, it's good that you can come!"

"Right now, the Emperor's identity is noble and respected, so why would he have the time to come out of the palace and drink tea?" Could it be that the tea in the palace is not as tasty as the tea in the palace? "

Shen Yushi's tone was full of mockery and Nangong Qing did not react in time. Had she really changed her tone of voice after not seeing her for so long?

"That's nothing. I just wanted to beat you up. We haven't had a heart conversation since you got married!" Before this, their relationship had always been good. If not for the painful memories from his previous life, perhaps Shen Yushi would have truly believed that he was an infatuated person.

Upon hearing these words, Shen Yushi took a sip of her tea and thought for a moment before swallowing it back down. What had given him so much courage to be able to say such heartless words?

"I didn't expect that after so many days, the Emperor would still be the same as before!" Her tone of voice carried a bit of laziness, but it was somewhat absent-minded.

When Nangong Qing heard the sarcasm in Shen Yushi's words, she felt a little helpless. The three of them often chatted with each other, but she had never realized that there was such a relationship between Shen Yushi and Qiao Yin.

"Let's not talk about these things today!"

With that, Nangong Qing poured a cup of tea for her. She then looked at Shen Yushi seriously and said softly, "When did you and Qiao Yin have an affair? How come I didn't know about this?"

In his previous life, Shen Yushi had trusted this man far too much, which was why she had given him everything without any precautions. However, she had never thought that she would end up like this …

"The Emperor is now the Son of Heaven, and he has three thousand beauties in the harem. How could he care about such things?" As she spoke to here, there was a hint of amusement in her eyes.

When Nangong Qing heard his tone, it was as if she understood something. She quickly pulled on her hand and said in a low voice, "Are you blaming me?"
