After the replacement of the delicate imperial concubine, my emperor will never come to court again

Chapter 39 Private Meeting on the Palace Wall
  Shen Hebei sat in the sedan all the way, holding a silver knife in his hand and slowly opening the letter sealed with rice grains.

This was a letter that Ren Yuhuan gave him to forward to her mother. Shen Hebei had read every letter.

This letter is just ordinary. I wish you well first, and then report that everything is going well. Don't think about taking care of your body.

Shen Hebei stared at the handsome hairpin in regular script, and Ren Yuhuan's reaction when asked about the scar on his neck appeared in front of his eyes.

"When everything goes well, this kid loves to lie."

The corners of Shen Hebei's lips raised slightly, he sighed softly, put the letter into the envelope, and closed it again.

Returning to the mansion, after waiting for half a day, my subordinates brought the letter.

Shen Hebei read it properly, and then handed a letter from himself to his subordinates.

"Send it to Ren Yuhuan."

Ren Yuhuan never expected to get a reply in the evening. In addition to his mother's letter, there was also a letter from Shen Hebei himself.

Ren Yuhuan's heart skipped a beat and he immediately hid Shen Hebei's letter under the quilt.

A palace maid came over and poked her head in from the door: "The imperial concubine asked you to eat the food prepared in the imperial kitchen, and asked you to make some light meat dishes and soft pastries."

Ren Yuhuan stood up immediately, pretended to adjust the quilt, and hid the letter under the quilt.

She sat down quickly in the kitchen, but her thoughts kept falling on the letters in the room.

Why would Shen Hebei write to her?

Ren Yuhuan had never known Shen Hebei's intention to help her in this way. Although he had always been afraid in his heart, he was a little scared when he saw the letter.

After finally sending it over, Ren Qianyu insisted that Ren Yuhuan wait for her to eat, and waited until midnight before returning to the room.

Ren Yuhuan lit a candle, placed it on the edge of the bed, and immediately took out the two letters.

After hesitating for a while, Ren Yuhuan opened his mother's letter first. He felt at ease while reading his mother's letter. He kept thinking about the other letter while reading it.

Even his mother's letters were not included, so he hurriedly opened Shen Hebei's letters.

"I heard that your jasper hazelnut cake is the best in the world. Do you have a chance to taste it?"

"Sorry, don't use pressure, just think I'm just making a wish."

Ren Yuhuan breathed a sigh of relief, immediately packed up the letters, returned to the kitchen, and carefully cooked a plate overnight.

The next day, Ren Yuhuan hid a food box in her arms and went to wait by the palace wall of the West City Gate. This time she arrived first.

There was a cage of weeds beside the palace wall of the West City Gate, with a few small flowers blooming in the grass. The guards were sitting under the porch, drinking tea and ignoring her.

Ren Yuhuan knew that Shen Hebei had taken care of it, so he was not afraid and squatted in the grass and stroked the little yellow flower.

"like?"

The gentle voice reached her ears, and Ren Yuhuan was startled, and immediately stood up and turned to look at Shen Hebei.

He is dressed in white clothes, wearing a gray cloak, a red agate belt and a red jade pendant hanging around his waist, which makes him particularly charming.

What does this man, who is as gentle as jade and loved by all the women in the capital, want to get from her?

"Your Majesty."

Ren Yuhuan pursed his lips and smiled before sending out the hot food box in his hand.

Shen Hebei smiled and looked at Ren Yuhuan, who lowered his head slightly and trembled his eyelashes.

A thought moved in my mind.

He had also met Shen Yanzhi's beloved concubine Ren Qianyu, and she did seem somewhat similar to Ren Yuhuan.

However, in comparison now, Ren Qianyu looks arrogant and often has a straight face. Compared with Ren Yuhuan, who is smart and charming, she is clearly superior to her.

Shen Hebei was a little lost in thought, and the hand he reached out to take touched unexpectedly Ren Yuhuan's hand.

Ren Yuhuan's hand shook, but she didn't move away. She just lowered her head, and could still see the blush on her cheeks. Shen Hebei felt affection in his heart, stretched out his hand and slid it through her fingers, taking the food box.

"Is it to be forwarded to your mother?"

Upon hearing this, Ren Yuhuan immediately raised his head, shook his head repeatedly, bit his lip, and looked anxious in his pink peach eyes.

"Oh, is it for me?"

Shen Hebei already knew this, but he pretended that he couldn't open the food box and handed it to Ren Yuhuan.

Ren Yuhuan could only smile, opened the food box and showed the pastries to Shen Hebei.

Shen Hebei put his hands behind his back, walked into Ren Yuhuan and said, "It looks delicious."

Shen Hebei took a step further and said, "I have to read the paperwork later. I don't want to get my hands oily. Can you feed me?"

Ren Yuhuan's cheeks turned red all over, and he looked at Shen Hebei in disbelief.

Has he shown his true colors?

Ren Yuhuan immediately said humbly: "This slave is a rough servant. She doesn't know how to feed. I'm afraid I might have hurt the prince by mistake. Please call the prince for your attendants -"

But when Shen Hebei took a step further, he could clearly see the down on Ren Yuhuan's face.

Ren Yuhuan knew in his heart that his mother was still under his care, and he had to obey even if he didn't want to.

He held the biscuit in his hand and put it into Shen Hebei's mouth.

Seeing his lips touch the cookie, he immediately lowered his gaze.

"good to eat!"

The bodyguards sent by Shen Yanzhi to keep an eye on Ren Yuhuan discovered that Ren Yuhuan had gotten up early and sneaked out of Yikun Palace, and immediately reported it to Shen Yanzhi.

Shen Yanzhi immediately got up from the dragon couch and came to the palace wall at the west city gate.

At the turning point of the palace wall, he watched every word and deed of Ren Yuhuan and Shen Hebei.

Wang Lian only glanced at it and then did not dare to look again. He retreated to Shen Yanzhi's side and kept observing Shen Yanzhi's emotions.

Shen Yanzhi just watched it with cold eyes, a sullen face, and said nothing.

It wasn't until Shen Hebei turned around to leave that he took Wang Lian and the guards to the other side.

Ren Yuhuan kept covering his hot face with cold hands, looking a little flustered, and ran back step by step.

Shen Yanzhi stared at Ren Yuhuan's expression and frowned slightly.

Is that the shyness of the younger daughter?
  The reason why Ren Yuhuan didn't say that she was not a noble concubine was because she cared about Shen Hebei?
  Shen Yanzhi only thought that this unspeakable secret was related to her life and her family.

But I didn’t expect that it was just because of another man!
  Shen Yanzhi was furious, his dark eyes flashed with flames, and the hands hidden in his sleeves clenched into fists.

It was none other than Shen Hebei!
  Shen Hebei's offer of marriage was not necessarily just a joke. Although Shen Yanzhi rejected it because of the concubine's disapproval, she didn't expect that Shen Hebei would dare to enter the palace for a private meeting!
  Lawless!

Wang Lian waited for a long time and saw Ren Yuhuan walking away. This time he asked, "Your Majesty, can you go back?"

Shen Yanzhi almost squeezed out a sentence through his teeth: "Continue to stare at Ren Yuhuan, and don't try to scare the snake."

The guard immediately bowed and retreated.

Shen Yanzhi collected his emotions and said, "I'm going to Yikun Palace tonight, please go and inform me."

Wang Lian could only nod after hearing this.

Only he knew that His Majesty was really furious.

On the way back, Shen Yan didn't say a word, but when he saw the twists and turns, he got angry. Zhu Pi made red circles and comments on the twists and turns, and even scolded several ministers, and asked the Yushitai to investigate tomorrow.

He was busy until night. No matter how Wang Lian tried to persuade him, Shen Yanzhi refused to eat.
