Handsome Prince, Come to my Embrace

Tomorrow was the flower spirit exhibition, and all the dancers were extremely happy as they all practiced even harder. In the past two days, Su Qing rarely walked around the West Garden, and other than teaching Luo Shang a few tricks, he rarely saw her.

As for the Manager Shen, ever since Qing Ning left, she had not appeared again.

"Sisters, quick, look! What a beautiful butterfly!" A dancer who was practicing stopped. Her eyes were wide open, somewhat playful.

Xiao Zhu and the other dancers also looked over, their mouths wide open, showing a round 'O' shape.

"Wow, she's so beautiful. "Esteemed wangfei, quickly take a look!" The dancers screamed.

Attracting butterflies was not a strange thing, it was just that this butterfly was different from the other butterflies that flew in here, its wings were crystal clear, like a piece of crystal clear jade, the purple water caltrops were flickering like a feather from luck.

Seeing the butterfly flapping its wings happily, in the midst of the crowd, it landed on Luo Shang's shoulder.

Luo Shang raised her slender and jade-like hand, and the butterfly seemed to understand her words, it flapped its wings and landed on top of her fingertip. Clang!

"Hehe …" With a charming laugh, everyone was stunned.

The woman narrowed her eyes. Her eyelashes curled up, and the shattered pieces of Zhu Chi hanging from her head covered her little brow. Her already beautiful appearance could not help but smile, making her look even more stunning.

The dancers gulped. They were no longer looking at the butterfly, but at the smiling woman.

This was also the first time they saw Luo Shang smile.

"Princess is so beautiful …"

"Yeah, even butterflies fall for it."

"It's because Prince doesn't cherish her properly. If it was me, I would definitely love such a beautiful and kind woman."

Pow!

The closed fan landed heavily on the dancer's head. She let out a cry and shouted at the dancer beside her, "Why did you hit me?"

"Who told you to spout nonsense. You should just dance properly. You can say whatever you want here, and you won't find it annoying."

"None of your business!"

The two dancers fought back and forth as they laughed at the crowd and Luo Shang as well.

With ribbons in their hands, they stumbled and bumped into one of the women's skirts.

The dancer slowly raised her head. She was wearing a dark green dress with dark blue embroidered shoes at the bottom. This was …

As she thought of this, she suddenly raised her head. When she clearly saw the appearance of this person, she hurriedly lowered her head, burying it deeply. He called out, "Auntie, this servant did not do it on purpose. This servant knows that she is guilty. This servant knows that she is guilty."

Everyone, including Luo Shang, respectfully bowed when they saw Shen Changqing.

Shen Changqing pulled at her face, she shook the handkerchief in his hand, and said with a serious tone. At this time, each and every one of you are fooling around here. Could it be that tomorrow you'll be showing this attitude to the Emperor, the princes, and princes? "

The dancers did not dare to look up, nor did they dare to speak.

"Our rear courtyard has been valued highly by the imperial family all these years, could it be that just because we sent Qing Ning this year, you all are already so unrestrained? "Hmm?"

Shen Changqing shook her head and sighed. Seeing Luo Shang by her side, she walked over. She, is your little girl from West Garden? "

"Yes."

When the dancer kneeling on the ground heard this, she hurriedly crawled over and begged for mercy, "This servant knows my wrongs and is willing to accept any punishment. I beg Aunt, please don't make things difficult for my wangfei. "Please."

The dancers did not wait for Shen Changqing to speak and immediately kowtowed.

"What are you doing? When did this aunt say that I would punish her? When did you ever say that you would be punished? "Get up." Shen Changqing spoke coldly.

The dancer looked at her weakly, then stood up carefully and stood behind Luo Shang.

Shen Changqing was a kind person, the girls in the backyard all knew about it, but in this Flower Soul Exhibition, there were no blemishes at all, she did not allow any of the dancers to make any mistakes.

"All of you, listen carefully. Tomorrow, the flowers will bloom. If anyone makes any mistakes, don't blame your aunt for not forgiving her." she said coldly.

Then, he turned to look at Luo Shang and said: "Come with me."

Luo Shang inexplicably raised her head, and then sunk. After replying with "yes", he followed behind her.

The backyard was truly like a paradise on earth. Mirror blossoms, water moons, and the warbler curled in the air. Especially this Pearl Jade Platform, Luo Shang had a feeling every time she passed it, as if she had skipped over it before.

Luo Shang didn't know where Shen Changqing was taking her, and she wouldn't ask him, she only followed him.

When she looked up again, large, bright words were on top of her head.

Purple Emblem Garden.

Shen Changqing continued walking in, but just as he was about to step through the doorstep, he stopped, turned his head, saw that Luo Shang did not move, and frowned.

"Hurry up and catch up!"

Luo Shang had originally thought that last time, under Qing Ning's premeditated plan to enter this place, Shen Changqing had almost taken her life. This time, why did she bring him here?

"You may leave." Shen Changqing instructed the little girl behind him, then pushed open the door and walked in.

"Come in."

Luo Shang was startled, she followed her instructions, walked in and closed the door.

Just as she was about to ask, the woman in front of her kneeled down.

"Aunt, what are you doing?" Luo Shang hurriedly stepped forward to help her up.

Shen Changqing held her hand and begged: "This servant knows that wangfei is kind, and I hope that you will definitely agree to one thing. Even if I die, this old one will be able to rest peace."

Luo Shang's beautiful eyes were like water. "Please get up first."

"If wangfei doesn't agree, this old woman will kneel and not rise." Shen Changqing knew that this girl would definitely help him accomplish what he wanted in his heart, and she also knew that this matter, that thing, could only be trusted by Luo Shang.

Luo Shang did not know why Shen Changqing said that, but she could not reject, so he could only nod his head and agree. She gently said, "Alright, I agree."

"You get up first." Luo Shang supported her and sat on the smooth brown chair beside the table.

Shen Changqing pulled her hand and looked at her.

That face still resembled that woman, the woman she had hated so much all her life. And yet, this child was so kind-hearted.

If she had not experienced this, she would never have entrusted this important task to her.

"Aunt, what do you want to say?" Luo Shang looked at her with her watery eyes.

Shen Changqing sighed, she stood up and looked at the sealed door. There was once a woman who, in order to gain power and gain what she wanted, did not hesitate to take away the happiness of her younger sister's life. In order to keep her position, she has killed everyone who could threaten her, even her children who have just turned a few months old. "

"Aunt said it's …"

Shen Changqing gritted his teeth and clenched his fists tightly. The anger and hatred in his eyes was like a sharp knife.

"She is the current empress dowager, the Jinghe."

Her Majesty?

It was the Empress Dowager again.

Luo Shang suddenly thought back to what Young Lord had said to him when he was in her arms. He said, 'Big sister fairy, the person who killed my mother and father was actually my royal grandma.

Shen Changqing turned around, his eyes filled with sorrow, and continued: "Back then, when the late emperor was still the crown prince, he invited many guests to the banquet in the Duke Palace. The Crown Prince couldn't get enough of the wine, so he came to our backyard with a servant accompanying him. Coincidently, he met a very beautiful girl. A love dance formed from the marriage of an Acropolis Kingdom was the reason for their relationship. The Crown Prince fell in love with her at first sight and promised to marry her after he ascended the throne. "

"That woman is Madam Yan, the second daughter of the Wu Zhou Protecting National Duke. Not long after the Crown Prince ascended the throne, an Imperial Emissary of Wei came to visit the Kingdom of Wei and accidentally saw the Madam Yan. The late emperor was furious and he was determined to marry the eldest daughter of the National Duke to the Acropolis Empire to reconcile with his. On the day of their marriage, who would have thought that the bridal sedans on both sides would be the same? All of that had already been planned out long ago. The fact that the Jinghe had married the late emperor as she wished had destroyed her sister's happiness for the rest of her life. She told Emperor Xian that the Madam Yan did not love him anymore and that he had already decided to spend her life with the Emperor of Wei. With these words, the late Emperor passed away with hatred in his heart. "

Luo Shang listened to what Shen Changqing said. In the past, Su Qing had also told her that the Madam Yan Empress of Wei Nation had married a man he did not love.

No wonder she never had a smile in her life.

"But how did aunt know all this?" she asked.

Shen Changqing walked towards the window at his side. She lifted the cloth on the table, revealing a painting that was engraved on a piece of white paper.

Luo Shang carefully accepted the painting that she had given him. This was the painting that she had seen the other day, the ink on the painting had already dried, but the woman in the painting was still as beautiful as ever. However, she was still crying sorrowfully as she kissed the forehead of the child in her arms.

"Who is she?"

"She is my master, esteemed imperial concubine. The one in his arms was also the late emperor's … The First Prince. " When Shen Changqing saw the picture, she felt as if a knife was twisted inside his heart, and he wished that he could immediately kill the lady.

Even now, she still could not forget how sorrowful the Empress felt when she handed the prince to her. She still could not forget how the Jinghe had poisoned the Empress.

"The Jinghe is cruel and merciless. She angered the National Duke to death, forced her personal maid, Pei'er, to death, eliminated those imperial concubines doted upon by the late emperor, and killed the child in the empress's womb. "Esteemed wangfei is a kind-hearted and benevolent person who never vied with anyone for jealousy, but because she was pregnant with the late emperor's child, the late emperor wanted to make her his empress, bringing about his death."

Shen Changqing laughed bitterly. Two streams of tears of heartache finally flowed down his face. " Imperial Concubine Rong was doted upon by the late emperor. Not long after giving birth to her prince, she was framed by the Jinghe. Everyone said that the Empress had lost her mind. Emperor Xian handed the Empress over to the Jinghe. That vicious woman, she dug out the Empress's eyes and cut off her tongue. I saw with my own eyes that the Cold Palace's walls, floor, firewood, and everything else was covered in the Empress's blood. Do you know what esteemed imperial concubine said the last time she saw me? "

"She said she wanted me to kill her. "She said that she didn't want Emperor Xian to see her in such an ugly state." Shen Changqing's eyes were filled with tears. She raised her head and laughed in grief.
