Chapter 86, Shut Up
Chapter 86, Shut Up
The night is dark.
But tonight Cangyu Tower is still very lively.
Inside the private room on the third floor, the atmosphere was solemn and strange.
Shen Qingtang, who was detained by Emperor Yuji, could no longer bear the curiosity and looked outside when the maids filed out of the private room.
If she was not mistaken, the man on the stage seemed to be her second target - Mingyue's 'brother'.
"Sister-in-law, do you want to go out and take a look?"
Shen Qingtang was pricking up his ears, listening to the shouts coming from outside, when His Royal Highness Prince Jing, who had just finished pouring wine for Emperor Yu Ji, stood up and propped up a carved window lattice next to Shen Qingtang.
As he walked by, a cool and refreshing fragrance came into Shen Qingtang's nose along with the evening breeze.
The tip of her nose twitched for a moment under the veil, and Shen Qingtang moved three inches closer to Emperor Yu Ji.
After all, Prince Jing was a foreign man who had a bad relationship with Emperor Yuji. Although she did not respond to Prince Jing, her eyes looking at Emperor Yuji were filled with undisguised expectations.
"Is it okay?" Shen Qingtang gently tickled the Emperor Yuji's palm and said flatteringly, "I just walked past the ring downstairs. The person guarding the ring should be Brother Mingyue?"
Promise her now.
The atmosphere in this private room was almost depressing her.
She really wanted to go out and get some fresh air...
She made no secret of her desire for freedom.
"It's her." Emperor Yuji gently pinched her rebellious little hand and said, "I know you can't sit still, so let Jiang Quan accompany you down."
When Shen Qingtang heard that Jiang Quan was asked to accompany him down, he waved his hands to refuse.
"No, no, Brother Mingyue is downstairs. It would be better for Jiang Quan to stay in the house and serve you." Although he said he was serving, he actually still had to be on guard against people with ulterior motives.
Everyone present is a smart person.
His Royal Highness Prince Jing understood her hidden meaning and couldn't help laughing out loud.
"My sister-in-law really cares about my brother. No matter how considerate Jiang Quan is, can he be better than our brothers?"
After saying that, Prince Jing's fox-like hook eyes fell on Shen Qingtang with interest.
It seems that his 'sister-in-law' is an interesting person.
Care about Emperor Yuji?
The small blood-red mole under Prince Jing's eye became more and more charming as he smiled.
He is now very curious, is this 'sister-in-law' sincere or fake?
If so...I guess you'd go crazy, right?
Under Prince Jing's teasing gaze, Shen Qingtang did not seem nervous at all and sat beside Emperor Yuji with a normal expression.
"Your Highness, you are joking. It's just that your brother is used to being served by Jiang Quan. Even if you are more considerate than Jiang Quan, your brother will not be used to it." These words...
As soon as Shen Qingtang finished speaking, Emperor Yu Ji pinched her wrist.
He was very pleased, and his pair of narrow and long phoenix eyes, as deep as a cold pond, looked at Prince Jing with a superficial smile.
"It's okay. Let Jiang Quan accompany you. You have to believe that Prince Jing can serve his husband well." Emperor Yu Ji curled his lips lightly, "Don't you think so? Your Highness Prince Jing."
After saying this, Emperor Yu Ji casually played with the slender jade fingers in his hand under the trembling corners of Prince Jing's eyes.
"If Prince Jing can't serve me well, I'm afraid your sister-in-law won't be able to go downstairs with peace of mind."
What does this make Prince Jing look like?
A lowly servant?!
In the private room, the Ye family siblings, who were of the lowest status, didn't even dare to breathe.
Under the sharp gaze of Emperor Yu Ji, Prince Jing smiled even more charmingly like a male vixen, which made Ye Qingtong, who was sitting opposite him, stare at him with his eyes almost popped out.
"Sister-in-law, please come downstairs quickly. I will be by your side to serve you, so you can rest assured."
"Go ahead. With Jiang Quan accompanying you downstairs, I will feel more at ease." Emperor Yuji patted the back of Shen Qingtang's hand. "Whether you can impress her and make her accept you depends on your ability."
After saying that, he gently raised his hand, and Jiang Quan bowed beside him. "Take good care of your master Shu, and don't let anyone bully her."
Cangyu Tower is a stronghold of underworld forces.
It is also Jiang Mingyue’s dream.
if not...

Inside the palace and outside the palace are two different worlds.
As happy as Shen Qingtang was tonight, the people imprisoned in the Forbidden City were as furious as they were.
From Yaoguang Palace to Kunning Palace, Queen Ye raised her hand and swept the chessboard on the soft couch to the ground again under Aunt Ginkgo's uneasy gaze.
"How hateful! I actually made wedding clothes for her!"
Under Queen Ye's resentful gaze, Concubine Liang silently picked up the red sandalwood chessboard that had fallen to the ground and put it back on the couch.
"Your Highness, why are you so angry? Although you have helped others, in my opinion, it is also a blessing."
As soon as Concubine Liang finished speaking, a pair of fierce eyes pierced towards her.
"Lucky thing?!" Are you making fun of me?
"Yes, it is a blessing in disguise." Liang Fei sat down on the soft couch, pressed her dizzy forehead and said, "If the emperor really had favored the dancer you arranged under the influence of the warm love fragrance, I am afraid this matter would not end well."
After all, their husband did not like the dancer.
When Concubine Liang reminded her, Empress Ye's eyes flickered.
"Are we going to let her waste such a good chess piece?" Queen Ye still couldn't swallow this anger.
She is not reconciled.
Looking at the unwilling Queen Ye, Concubine Liang, who was somewhat drunk, held her head up and spoke.
"I don't quite understand why you are so obsessed with the dancer instead of the one who is close to you?"
As she spoke, Concubine Liang couldn't help but sigh.
"Just pretend that I was drunk tonight. That dancer is clearly not the type that the emperor favors. Even if you really want to support a concubine, you should find someone with a temperament and appearance similar to Concubine Shu. Maybe there will still be a chance..."
"...Are you sure?" Queen Ye frowned.
Concubine Liang thought about it, then shook her head and nodded.
Seeing her like this, Queen Ye couldn't help but feel a little angry.
"What do you want to say?"
Concubine Liang said with sleepy eyes: "Have you not discovered it yet, Madam?"
"What did you find?" Queen Ye looked at Concubine Liang with some suspicion. She suspected that Concubine Liang was really drunk.
What should she discover?
Under Empress Ye's puzzled gaze, Concubine Liang staggered to her feet from the couch.
"My lady, our 'husband' is not as lustful as you think..."

Cangyu Tower, on the stage.
Young Master Mingyue is not only good at using a spear, but he is also very adept at using a whip.
Of course, her invincibility was only before Shen Qingtang showed up. She could beat her challengers like stray dogs, forcing them to flee the ring in panic.
But after Shen Qingtang came, her terrifying whip suddenly became nothing under her passionate cheers.
However, Shen Qingtang cheered for her outside the ring without any shame.
"...Brother is the best and most powerful~ I will carry the banner for you, let's see who dares to be your enemy..."
Shen Qingtang was shouting, and Master Mingyue's face was very irritated.
"Shut up!"
