Spring Forest Evening

Halfway through Zhou Heng’s impatient speech, he felt a little guilty. According to his speculation, it would be better for Shen Fu to ask Empress Jiang face to face.

"Either you should not go? The risk is too great. Why don't you go back and talk to the eldest sister and ask her to find another opportunity to help enter the palace. She is the princess, so she shouldn't be too suspicious. By the way, Isn't it the Mid-Autumn Festival coming soon? There will be a palace banquet in the palace, right? Then let the elder sister see if she can talk to the empress?"

With an awkward expression, he hesitated to speak, and then he sat up straight uncomfortably and lowered his head not daring to look at himself. Seeing that she was so uncomfortable, Shen Fu sighed in his heart, that's all, she made herself a birthday bowl with braised pork in the evening On the other hand, I heard from the eldest sister that she has been busy all afternoon for this, so let's just let this matter go, don't tease her anymore, or say that the next thing is important.

He didn't say anything at the moment, just nodded in agreement with a casual look:

"It makes sense for you to say so. There is no need to take risks for such things. Moreover, the elder sister will definitely go to the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet this time. She didn't go there for several years because of her filial piety. It just happened to let her observe the Queen Mother by the way. The situation of the mother and daughter."

After saying this, he felt the body of the person in front of him loosen obviously, and then he came over and leaned on his body docilely, and unconsciously put his arms around his neck, Shen Fu secretly thought it was funny, but also softened his heart, He reached out and hugged her delicate body, kissed her forehead, and said in a low voice:

"Actually, there is a risk on my side. The empress entrusted the eldest sister to bring the jade pendant, and there is also a risk."

"Aside from other things, the jade pendant is an imperial gift after all, and it is not an ordinary imperial gift. Didn't the elder sister also mention the meaning of 'Chilong' to you, although the emperor may not care about it now, But that doesn't mean he doesn't mind that the material he gave back then goes outside, don't you think?"

"It's also fortunate that the person entrusted by the queen is my own sister, but if it is another person, whether it can be handed over to me, let alone, if it is still used by someone with a heart, if you really want to investigate it, the first person who has a problem will be It's her, and it can even be said that it is beyond redemption!"

"Forever?" Zhou Heng repeated in a murmur. Just now when she heard Shen Fu say that she could not see Empress Jiang, she relaxed, and her mind also relaxed, so that hearing such a word now, I didn't even think about it for a while.

Seeing that she was so cute with a lazy look of relying on him, Shen Fu took the opportunity to kiss her small nose again, and then pointed out to her in a warm voice:

"This jade pendant belongs to her, and it was a kind gift from the emperor to her back then. No matter in whose hands it fell, something went wrong on her side, don't you think? Even if the emperor didn't inquire about the crime afterwards, the queen's reputation will always be If there is a defect because of this, it is an indisputable fact that the harem secretly made friends with foreign ministers, this point, our 'smart' empress could not have imagined."

This is true, at least it shows that the queen doesn't care about this jade pendant and doesn't keep it strictly. Zhou Heng responded with a "huh" and started to feel a little drowsy looking at the lonely lamp on the table in front of him. Maybe it was because he was busy in the afternoon. Some tired.

Shen Fu didn't realize it, and continued to explain to her in detail:

"And what you're worried about is that even if she wants to frame me, hmph, I'm not that impatient little thief, why should I take this jade pendant from her? Besides, the palace walls are deep, and the palace is inexplicable. Lost such a jade pendant, not to mention whether I have the ability and thought to find such a small jade pendant alone, what would the Imperial Guards think, they are responsible for the security of the palace? Do your best to find all kinds of evidence to prove that they have not neglected their duties!"

"Then tell me, if I can't prove that I have entered the palace privately, what is the reason for this jade pendant to appear in Prince Jing's mansion? Naturally, most of the problems are on her side, don't you think so? Then the result will be the same as before..."

This time Zhou Heng didn't even respond with "um". Shen Fu thought she was too much to refute, and secretly thought it was funny, so he tightened his arms around her body, and made a concluding statement:

"All in all, although she is a queen, and the Chilong jade pendant was given by the emperor, I am also Prince Jing, so you don't have to worry. Since she asked the elder sister to hand over this item, she should really want to be a queen. As a token of the alliance, it means that in the future, there will be no turning back!"

After saying this, he felt that the girl in his arms was unresponsive, and lowered his head and called softly: "A Heng?" But he saw that her eyes were closed, and she seemed to be asleep.

Shen Fu smiled helplessly, well, let’s save the second question for tomorrow, slowly got up and wanted to carry her back to the inner room, not wanting that Zhou Heng didn’t sleep soundly at the moment, so he followed her every time he moved. He just woke up, rubbed his eyes and raised his head and muttered:

"Excuse me, why did I fall asleep? What time is it?"

"It's okay, just for a while," Shen Fu replied warmly, reaching out to pull her up: "You have been busy all afternoon, let's rest early!"

Zhou Heng yawned, and asked casually while getting up:

"Oh, I remember you just said you wanted to ask me two questions, have you finished asking me?"

After saying this, Shen Fu stopped what he was doing, looked at the sleepy girl in front of him with a half-smile and said:

"still have a question."

"Really? Then you ask!" Zhou Heng was in a daze at the moment, leaned towards Shen Fu, and yawned with his arms around his neck.

Seeing her like this, Shen Fu simply bent down and hugged her: "Go back to sleep! It's nothing important."

After Zhou Heng heard this, he also went with him, hugged Shen Fu's neck comfortably and let him carry him back to the inner room, but for some reason, when he put him on the bed and turned off the light, he found some Unable to fall asleep, she burrowed into his arms and simply asked what she just said:

"Ah Fu, are you sleepy? What question did you want to ask me just now?"

Shen Fu was also a little surprised, he didn't expect this person to be sober, and chuckled lightly, that's okay, he just said what he wanted to say, lest he had to think too much by himself:

"The bowl of noodles you made just now, when I ate it, it turned out to be one whole, but what's the point?"

"Oh," it turned out to be asking this, Zhou Heng lay on his side facing him, holding a lock of his hair in his hand, twirling it around his fingers, and explaining to him softly:

"I learned it from my grandma. When I was young, every time I celebrated my birthday, my grandma would cook me a bowl of noodles like this. It means smooth sailing after all. I have read it so many times and I am familiar with it. I tried it a few times according to my previous memory, is the taste okay?"

Speaking of this, he leaned over and kissed Shen Fu, and said: "Chuntao was here just now, and now I will add to you: 'Happy birthday', Ah Fu, I wish you all the best, and Prince Jing's mansion can pass this time smoothly. ...Well, shit."

Sorry to say "crisis", temporarily changed to "broke".

The response was Shen Fu's warm kiss back, and a soft sigh afterwards:

"But Ah Heng, I'd rather you say: I hope you and I will be a couple for the rest of our lives..."
