After listening to my voice, the villain became addicted to the plot

When Wei An heard Chu Chengye calling him, he thought he had other instructions.

He straightened his expression and turned back.

When Wei An stood still, Chu Chengye seemed to have his mouth glued shut, feeling ashamed to speak.

Wei An immediately stepped forward and said a few more words, seeming to reassure Chu Chengye.

Now that there were only two people in the room, he and the emperor, there was no need to worry about being discovered even if the emperor was plotting to kill someone.

If Chu Chengye didn't say anything, Wei An would probably lean over him. He suppressed the shame in his heart and pretended to be serious and said, "It's not a big deal."

"When you go to prepare the bath water, help me put some spices in the water."

what?
Wei An thought he heard wrongly and his eyes widened in disbelief.

What does the emperor want?
Want spices?
Although Chu Chengye became the supreme king in the world after he ascended the throne, he did not often have anyone around him except Wei An because he was too suspicious.

Perhaps because of his previous experience in the vassal state, Chu Chengye didn't care much about many things.

Take bathing as an example. I only rinsed it briefly every day. I felt that the smell of such spices was too pungent, so I ordered that Jingyang Palace was not allowed to prepare any more.

Unexpectedly, I actually asked for a fragrance bath today.

The taste of this soup is unpleasant, but who dares to say it? If Chu Chengye hadn't forced him to tell the truth today, he would have never dared to say these words until his death.

Thinking of what he had just said about Chu Chengye's unpleasant smell, he secretly slapped himself in the mouth.

It was just Chu Chengye's order. Wei An didn't dare to ask any more questions and went to prepare for Chu Chengye.

Cheng Jin finally had a good sleep.

Now that Chu Chengye's poison was cured, she didn't have to worry every day about when Chu Chengye would just kick his legs and leave.

However, the unpleasant smell of the soup was beyond Cheng Jin's imagination. For his own sake, Cheng Jin still wanted to ask if he could find another way when he saw Pei Yu again.

It's a big deal that Chu Chengye smells so bad.

Now that I think about it, Chu Huai'an is still a big hidden danger, but now he is far away in Jiangnan and cannot threaten Beijing for the time being.

However, it is winter now, and when the New Year is approaching, the Queen Mother Xu, who is concentrating on worshiping Buddha in the harem, must persuade Chu Chengye to let Chu Huai'an return to the palace.

There is not much description about Queen Mother Xu in the book. When Cheng Jin read it, she only felt that she was the final winner in the book.

Both Chu Chengye and Chu Huai'an were her biological sons. Whichever of them ascended the throne was the same to Empress Dowager Xu. She was both the most noble empress dowager in the harem.

It's just brothers fighting, the palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are full of flesh.

Although Chu Chengye had not been raised by Empress Dowager Xu since he was a child, he still respected his mother-in-law very much. First, when he was born, Empress Dowager Xu tried her best to stop the late emperor who was about to throw him to death and spared his life.

When he was raised outside the palace, it was Empress Dowager Xu who managed the servants who served Chu Chengye so that Chu Chengye could grow up to eight years old safely.

Although Chu Chengye went to the feudal vassal to be a hostage, Queen Mother Xu did not stop her, and Chu Chengye did not blame her. After all, Queen Mother Xu was just a concubine at the beginning, and people spoke lightly, so what if she said it? How to change the former emperor's will?

Therefore, Chu Chengye hated everyone in the palace, except for Empress Dowager Xu, who respected, respected and loved her.

It was precisely because Chu Chengye remembered the kindness of Queen Mother Xu that he tolerated Chu Huai'an and spared his life after he forced the palace to rebel.

Perhaps Empress Dowager Xu felt that her son had done too many evil things and had committed a taboo in the world.

Since Chu Chengye ascended the throne, Queen Mother Xu has never left the palace to see anyone. She only burns incense, eats and prays for Buddha in her Shouning Palace every day.

This also saves the concubines in the harem from having to visit every day.

It is now the end of October, and it will only be more than a month before Queen Mother Xu leaves the palace and Chu Huaian returns to Beijing. Cheng Jin is now unsure whether the Queen Mother is an enemy or a friend.

Empress Dowager Xu has been favored in the harem for many years, so how can she be a simple person? Chu Huai'an and Chu Chengye are both her sons, the eldest son and the youngest son. Which one can she give up?
Only when the time came to see Queen Mother Xu's attitude did she adapt to changes.

Cheng Jin rested in the palace for several days. She didn't know what kind of kindness Chu Chengye suddenly had, saying that she didn't need to accompany him to court or Jingyang Palace these days.

She was the only one in the harem, and there were no restrictions. Cheng Jin thought that it would be good to just live like this, and then he heard Cuizhu and Ziying coming back from outside.

Cuizhu was excited when she saw Cheng Jin, "Madam, did you know that Mr. Pei has entered Beijing as an official again?"

Of course Cheng Jin knew that she invited everyone here.

Cheng Jin patted Cuizhu on the shoulder, "I know, what's wrong?"

Cheng Jin was surprised that since she came back from Jingyang Palace that day, Wei An had only come once, just to tell Cheng Jin that she didn't need to follow her anymore.

Cheng Jin still remembered the strange smell of Chu Chengye's soup, so he only told Wei An and asked Chu Chengye to tell her when he saw Pei Yu again that she had something to say to him.

It has been several days since these words were heard, and there has been no movement from Chu Chengye.

Cheng Jin also wondered whether Chu Chengye had used up the person and then thrown it away, so he asked someone to inquire. He only said that Pei Yu had not been to Jingyang Palace in the past few days.

Let it go.

When Cuizhu suddenly said this, could it be that Pei Yu had entered the palace?

"I just heard someone said that Mr. Pei went to the direction of Jingyang Palace. Only then did I know that Mr. Pei has entered Beijing as an official again."

Cuizhu didn't see Cheng Jin's doubts, but patted Ziying on the shoulder and said regretfully, "If the empress hadn't entered the palace, I'm afraid the empress and Mr. Pei would have had a good relationship."

Cheng Jin asked Cuizhu to stop saying such things, as they were all unfounded rumors, and then thought of Pei Yu.

Pei Yu's clear moon-like appearance was parallel to hers, and just standing next to him felt like contamination.

Taking advantage of Pei Yu's feelings for her to enter the capital was already a heinous crime. If he thought about something else...

【It will only be very enjoyable. 】

[Anyway, it’s just a thought and it’s not illegal. 】

Thinking that Pei Yu had gone to Jingyang Palace, Cheng Jin thought about whether he could stop Hu Pei Yu from seeing him, or ask Chu Chengye if the strange smell of the medicine could be removed.

Cheng Jin set off after thinking of this. Cuizhu called Cheng Jin from behind, "Where are you going, my dear? Can I follow you?"

Cheng Jin turned around and said, "No need, I'll be back as soon as I go."

Sure enough, when Cheng Jin arrived at Jingyang Palace, Pei Yu was walking not far outside the palace gate.

He was dressed in red official clothes and had a long body, which made Pei Yu look extra dignified unlike before, who was cold and cold.

Cheng Jin called out to Pei Yu.

"Master Pei, wait a minute."

Pei Yu turned around slowly, and the cold expression on his face softened after seeing Cheng Jin.

He bowed slightly and saluted, "Your Majesty."

Cheng Jin stood next to Pei Yu and asked, "Have you never entered the palace in the past few days?"

Pei Yu shook his head in confusion, "No, I come here every day to take the emperor's pulse."
