Chapter 354: To please the daughter-in-law? The queen beats the emperor behind closed doors
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
Eunuch Li took the order and went to do the work. The emperor thought about it and felt that it was not enough, so he called him again, "Give the Night Pearl of the South China Sea to Shen Liangdi as well."
"Yes." Eunuch Li took the order and went to the Hehuan Palace with many rewards.
The emperor continued to pace in the imperial study and sighed, "This matter is done! When the queen comes back and learns about this, given her temper, I'm afraid she won't let it go."
The emperor had a headache when he thought of the queen.
He suddenly stopped and ordered, "When the queen comes back, tell her that I'm sick."
The little eunuch nodded respectfully, "I obey your order."

Xiao Jinyan had woken up a long time ago, and seeing the person in his arms sleeping so sweetly, he didn't want to get up.
Maybe they had been apart for too long, and he wanted to stay with her for a while longer.
She didn't seem to have changed much since she left. The only change was probably her belly, which would be a bit of a hindrance when she was held.
At this time, Liu Xi's shrill voice came from outside the door, "Your Highness, Eunuch Li is here."
Xiao Jinyan paused, glanced at Xiao Jiu who was still sleeping, and stood up to put on his clothes. Because the hem of his clothes was pressed by her, he woke up Xiao Jiu who was sleeping when he stood up.
Shen Chuwei opened her eyes and stared at the man beside the bed for a long time. Because she had just woken up, she was not sober enough.
Xiao Jinyan saw her open her eyes and didn't say anything, "Awake?"
Shen Chuwei hadn't seen Xiao Jinyan for a long time, so when she saw Xiao Jinyan after waking up, she was sure that Xiao Jinyan was really back.
"Your Highness." She rubbed her eyes and got up.
Xiao Jinyan said while changing clothes: "Eunuch Li is here."
"Eunuch Li?" Shen Chuwei reacted. Eunuch Li was the one serving the emperor, so she could only dress as well.
The two walked out of the inner room one after another and saw Eunuch Li standing in the hall.
Xiao Jinyan said in a faint voice, "Eunuch Li, is there anything?"
Eunuch Li came forward with a smile, pointing to the things in the eunuch's hand and said, "Your Highness, these are all gifts from the emperor to Shen Liangdi. This red agate bracelet is most suitable for pregnant people to wear."
"And this South China Sea Night Pearl, it is most suitable to be placed on the bedside for lighting at night."
Xiao Jinyan glanced at the things in the eunuch's hand and saw that they were all treasures.
It is not difficult to guess that the emperor is guilty and wants to compensate Xiaojiu.
He snorted in his heart, can he compensate by giving some things?
The emperor gave things, of course he should thank him
Shen Chuwei took two steps forward to take the things, bowed, "Thank you for the emperor's reward."
"Then I will go back and report." Eunuch Li turned around and left with a smile.
After Eunuch Li left, Shen Chuwei took a few glances at the Night Pearl of the South China Sea. Seeing the Night Pearl for the first time, she curiously took it to Xiao Jinyan, "Your Highness, this Night Pearl is the same size as a goose egg."
Xiao Jinyan looked at the Night Pearl in Xiaojiu's hand and said, "There are only three Night Pearls of the South China Sea, and my father got two, and one is with my mother."
Shen Chuwei said, "...The emperor is really generous"
Xiao Jinyan snorted.
Shen Chuwei suddenly had an idea, "Your Highness, how about we put it on the bedside at night? There is no need to light the lamp."
When it comes to lighting the lamp, a smile flashed across Xiao Jinyan's eyes: "As long as you are happy."
At this time, the queen's phoenix sedan had arrived at the palace.
The queen looked at the familiar red bricks and green tiles, and her heart was still not at peace.
She knew that the dog emperor hated women who did not keep their husbands' chariots the most.
Fortunately, the prince had rushed back.
Back in the palace, the queen went straight to the imperial study.
Qingying followed and advised: "Queen, calm down, don't conflict with the emperor."
The queen smiled: "Don't worry, how dare I challenge the emperor, he is the king of a country."
Qingying nodded repeatedly, "Queen, it's good that you know."
The queen snorted: "I just want the emperor to know that I am very angry!"
Qingying knew the queen's temper too well, she reminded: "Then you take it easy."
The queen said: "Don't worry, he is the emperor after all, you can't confront him head-on, I know my limits."
Qingying looked at the queen's posture, why did she feel that her limits would be out of control
When she stepped into the imperial study, the queen didn't see the dog emperor. In broad daylight, he was not in the imperial study. Where did he go?
Did he go to He Meiren again?
The queen walked out of the imperial study and asked the eunuch next to her, "Where is the emperor?"
"Reply to Queen, the emperor is not feeling well and is back to the Yangxin Palace." The eunuch lowered his head and replied respectfully.
Feeling unwell?
Suspicion flashed in the queen's eyes, "Why are you suddenly unwell? Did you catch a cold or something?"
"My queen, I don't know." said the eunuch.
The queen stopped asking and walked to the Yangxin Palace with a dignified step.
Eunuch Li saw the queen coming from a distance and turned around and went in, "Your Majesty, the queen is here."
The emperor immediately put down the memorial in his hand, took off his dragon robe and shoes with the help of Eunuch Li, and lay on the bed with a look of discomfort.
When the queen came in, she saw the dog emperor lying on the bed. She turned her head to look at Qingying and Eunuch Li, "You go back."
"Yes."
Eunuch Li and Qingying went out and closed the door.
The queen came closer and took a look. The emperor's face was normal, there was sweat on his forehead, his brows were furrowed, and his eyes were slightly open, as if he was uncomfortable.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"
The emperor saw the queen and said weakly, "Queen, you came back early?"
The queen snorted: "My daughter-in-law and grandson are in prison. How can I not come back early? If I come back later, I'm afraid I won't be able to see anything, right?"
The emperor guessed that the queen came back early because she must have heard the news. As for who sent the news, who else could it be except Yu'er?
"What is the queen talking about? Now the truth has been found out. Shen Liangdi and the emperor's grandson are safe and sound." He emphasized the last sentence.
The queen sneered: "Your Majesty, I see that you are full of energy when you speak, and you don't look unwell."
The emperor coughed twice: "I'm afraid that the voice is too soft and the queen can't hear it clearly, causing misunderstanding."
"Really? My precious grandson almost died because of the emperor, and the emperor said a few words lightly, and it was over?"
The queen said while rolling up her sleeves.
The emperor saw that the queen was about to beat someone up, and suddenly thought of the scene when they met for the first time and he was beaten down by the queen. After so many years, he still remembered it vividly.
"You are the queen, you should pay attention to your manners."
"If my grandson is gone, what's the point of me having the queen's manners?"
The queen lifted the quilt, and the emperor hurriedly grabbed the queen's hand, "I am the emperor."
"If you were not the emperor, I would have beaten you eight hundred times."
The emperor: "..."
"What did you say back then?" The queen imitated the emperor's tone and said: "Ling'er, when you arrive at the East Palace, it will be like being at home without any restraints, you can do whatever you want."
