Rebirth of the Empress

Chapter 7

After coming back from the Empress Dowager's Palace that day, the palace was like a beehive that had been pierced, and it was a sensation, with rumors about me running around in the palace, such as what a ghost had possessed me, and what pretending to be a goat to eat a wolf, and so on.

In the face of such a sensation, I still quietly live their own little life, every day to sleep, eat, visit the garden, I found myself really long time has not had such a cozy life, although this kind of life will let a person decadent will let a person lose the will to fight, but in such a time that does not belong to their own simply do not know which day they will suddenly disappear, can not help but to have that kind of get over it idea.

In the palace road, Dong'er followed me, all the way to meet the eunuchs and court ladies who humbly greeted me. Dong'er indignantly said, “Your Highness, they are all secretly glancing at you behind you!”

I lost my laughter and said lightly, “Just ignore it, keep walking, the Empress Dowager's side is waiting to greet you!”

The wind suddenly got stronger, I slightly shivered, Dong'er said, “Your Highness, Dong'er go back to get you a cloak, you go first!”

I nodded, and after Dong'er left, I continued walking along the palace road from memory. It was only after a long time that I realized I could no longer find my way, and in my heart, I lamented that this palace was really not ordinary. The time to greet the Empress Dowager seemed to have passed, so I simply wandered slowly and blindly.

Finally, I stopped in front of a magnificent palace, this palace seemed to be different from the others, all the furnishings skillfully combined grandeur and elegance, I couldn't help but step inside.

All the furnishings in the palace are quite ingenious, on the book case there are some yellow leather books that seem to be folded or something like that, I froze for a moment, could this be the Emperor's study, but then I couldn't restrain myself from walking towards the tall bookshelves over there.

From outside the hall came a sound of footsteps startled me, I panicked and hid behind the bookshelves, the layers of books will be well hidden me.

A man's familiar voice resounded lowly in the empty silence of the hall, “How's the spying going?” I could hear that the voice was the Emperor's.

The thin voice replied humbly, “There are especially many rumors about the Empress in the palace, and the slave has heard ...... that they are actually talking about me, I was shocked and held my breath to listen carefully, ”Since the Empress fell into the water, the Empress has not only spoken behavior is unusual, even eating habits have changed ......”

“Xiao Guizi, do you think a person's disposition will change drastically after falling into water?” The Emperor's voice faintly sounded.

“Minion doesn't know!” The thin voice said fearfully, “Nun has heard that the Empress seems to have forgotten a lot of things!”

“Forgetting a lot of things, it wouldn't even be her own preferences, would it?” The Emperor murmured and mused. It wouldn't be, I replied with amusement in my heart.

“Stand down!”

“Chatter!”

In the middle of the day, only one person's footsteps seemed to be left pacing around in the hall. I couldn't move in or out, so I sat down in the empty space behind the bookshelf in boredom, unknowingly dozing off against the bookshelf.

In a daze, I always feel that there is a pair of eyes staring eerily at myself, I forced myself to open my hazel eyes, this open eyes, but was facing a pair of condensing eyes, I was so scared that I almost screamed, calmed down surprisingly found that the emperor half bent over and stared down at me.

Seeing me wake up, he don't open his eyes, blandly said: “Get up!” I obediently got up and followed him to turn out of the bookshelf.

On the dragon's collapse, the Emperor sat high up, and I could only stand below and look up at him, feeling like a criminal being interrogated.

“Why are you here?” The Emperor's tone did not have the slightest ripple.

I scraped my belly and couldn't really find a suitable reason, so I answered truthfully, “My concubine got lost and entered this palace by mistake!”

“Lost? You as the Empress even got lost!” The person who asked the question did not hide his tone of doubt and reproach.

I frankly faced his eyes and blandly said, “I have seldom set foot in His Majesty's palace in the past two years, so it's not surprising that I've gotten lost,” after thinking about it, I couldn't help but mumble again, “Perhaps His Majesty has also forgotten where my palace is!”

“Are you condemning me for rarely going to your palace these past two years?” The Emperor raised his eyebrows with a smirk, his tone flat.

In my heart, I screamed bad, how did I move a stone to stone my own feet, I even forgot that I am married to the Emperor, in case he really came to my palace, wouldn't I have to ...... I hurriedly laughed dryly for a couple of seconds, “I don't dare to do so, I just think that this palace is quite big, and that His Majesty is in charge of everything day by day and therefore not use my concubine's palace at all, and a lot of concubine's sister's palace is closer to my concubine's.”

Toward the end I myself don't know what I'm talking about, and can't wait to escape in this depressing environment.

The emperor walked down from the dragon couch, paced in front of me, leaned in and leaned towards me, his handsome sharp eyes stared at me, I hastily backed away, he couldn't help but say in disappointment, “You're still afraid of me!”

I fake smile, “Your Majesty is the Nine to Five, my concubine is naturally in awe of your Majesty!”

“Just because of that?” He stared at me closely.

I averted my eyes and nodded slightly.

The Emperor suddenly brushed his mouth away, the corner of his mouth hooked out a trace of a playful smile, “But the current Empress makes me feel that it's not that simple!”

I stared at this man in a daze, my mind in chaos ......
