Chapter 198 - 198 Pain and Happiness
“I will eat your flesh and peel off your skin!” The empress let out a low growl. Under the gaze of the palace maids, she pounced in front of Xiao Meili and bit off a piece of flesh from her face. “Xiao Meili, you’re so cruel, you’re so cruel! I won’t let you go! I will kill your entire family to take revenge for my child!” The empress’ eyes were bloodshot. She did not even have a portrait of her child. The only portrait she had was destroyed by the Zhao family’s new daughter-in-law! That family was not a good thing!
“Your Majesty, Panpan admires His Majesty the emperor. The two of them are in love with each other. I really didn’t instigate Panpan to seduce the emperor!” Xiao Meili’s heart was filled with fear as she covered her bleeding face and retreated. The palace maid felt that something was wrong and also ran out of the palace with Xiao Meili. Fortunately, the empress had been in confinement for a while and did not eat much, so she did not have the strength to catch up.
The news of Xiao Meili and the empress fighting in the palace and Xiao Meili’s disfigurement quickly spread. Xiao Meili did not expect the empress to be so crazy that she would attack her without caring about her dignity. If she had known, she would not have entered the palace even if she was beaten to death, let alone provoke the empress!
When the news reached the emperor’s ears, he was eating with Zheng Shan’er.
“Your Majesty should go and see the empress and come back earlier tonight. You haven’t finished the questions arranged yesterday. We’ll change the questions when Your Majesty can make something that can blow up the palace.” Zheng Shan’er yawned and waved at the emperor. The emperor immediately ran out like a rabbit. Sigh, Zheng Shan’er did not sleep with him at all. Instead, she asked him to study explosives or to study how to interrogate and torture others. Thus, the emperor had not even touched a single finger of hers!
The emperor felt bitter in his heart, but he felt that what Zheng Shan’er said made sense. She was very serious when she explained the questions to him. If the emperor did not complete what he was taught today, the thing under his crotch would not be able to raise its head for half a month! There was even one time when he pampered a concubine and did not finish the homework that Zheng Shan’er arranged. That concubine’s palace was haunted for half a month, causing that imperial concubine to go crazy.
So, for the safety of his concubines, the emperor did not dare to let Zheng Shan’er come into contact with them. The concubines thought that Zheng Shan’er was too favored, but they did not know that the emperor was saving them. He was afraid that they would be killed by Zheng Shan’er!
Other emperors chose concubines to let themselves enjoy the days of being surrounded by beautiful women, not to choose a teacher for themselves! The emperor felt that his life now was even more difficult than when he was in school.
“Your Majesty, please finish the books I’ve arranged for you to read.” When the emperor heard Zheng Shan’er say this to him before he left, he was so scared that his legs went soft! He did not want to study. He just wanted to hug this soft woman to the bed and sleep! However, Zheng Juan ‘er’s lecture was inexplicably attractive, and he listened to her. He was reaping what he sowed!
The emperor was both happy and in pain. He suddenly thought that it was a good thing that Zheng Shan’er had become his concubine. Otherwise, if she had been picked up by someone else, under her supervision, they would build a rival kingdom, right? Fortunately, there was only one talent like Zheng Shan’er. If there were a few more, he would not be able to protect his country. The emperor was both glad and helpless. He knew Zheng Shan’er’s personality well. She had no morals or ethics, and no restrictions on herself. She was talented and did not like to be restricted by others. He just did not know how long he could hold Zheng Shan’er back. It was better to manage the concubines in the harem first, and not let Zheng Shan’er accidentally kill them all.
When the emperor rushed to the empress’ chamber, the empress’ hair was disheveled, and she looked like a demon from hell. Her mouth was full of blood, and her face was cold and desperate.”You lied to me, you lied to me…”
When the emperor saw this, he was shocked and could not say what he was feeling. Although he did not like the empress’ disgraceful appearance, he still could not bear seeing her heartbroken like this.
