Hard to Get: Charming Abandoned Empress

The sound of footsteps got closer and closer. Su Man He's cold gaze suddenly softened as the crystal droplets that had been dense for a long time dripped onto the table. Her cherry lips emitted a faint sob.

"Manhe?" As soon as Leng AoTian entered the Purple Lai Pavilion, he saw Su Manhe covering her face with her hands as she sobbed. His heart ached, and he hurriedly took a few steps forward!

Su Man He purposefully raised his eyes in fear, then lowered his head even lower, pretended to be panicking as he wiped away the tears on his face, then smiled as he faced Leng Ao Tian!

"Manhe, who bullied you!?" Tell me! I'll cut off his head! " Leng Ao Tian embraced Su Man He, seriously looking at the woman in front of him. In terms of beauty, in ten years, there didn't seem to be any traces left on her face. In short, in Leng Ao Tian's eyes, Su Man He had no weakness!

"No …." No! This concubine was the one who blamed herself! " Su Man He lowered her head and looked at him obediently. Her slender white hands held the silk handkerchief tightly as she walked step by step like a weak willow feather. Within her delicateness, there were strong points that could attract tender affection. But how many of these were true emotions? More pretense!

The current Su Manhe was no longer the innocent little girl of the past! When she had no desire or desire, he allowed her the highest position! While she was full of anticipation, he pushed another woman into that position. She was the Emperor's woman, so even if he was willing to let her go, she would never be happy again! She had no choice but to give up her youth just for his promise! After the passing of time, she had long since lost her passion. That feeling of love, that cold arrogance of the heavens, she did not even have a single trace of feeling! Desire and power had taken over her whole soul!

The day had finally come. The empress dowager had passed away, and the empress had been demoted. That position was beckoning to her! And now, she was getting closer and closer to it! He was close enough that he could reach her, so no matter who it was, if he got in her way, he would die!

"Blame yourself!" Why would Manhe say that! " Leng Ao Tian hugged her even more tightly. Su Manhe could feel the affection and reluctance from this man, but in her heart, she was only sneering!

Su Man He felt Leng Ao Tian's sincerity, but what she wanted was more realistic!

"Before chenqie entered the palace, she had already heard some gossip about you, Your Majesty. In order to take chenqie into the palace, you found someone you don't need to blame to the empress. Although chenqie doesn't know the whole story, she believed that the emperor was definitely not someone to be trifled with. "Chenqie has a presumptuous request to ask. I hope the emperor doesn't blame us!" Su Manhe suddenly bent down and raised her delicate face. Her beautiful eyes were shining with a hint of pleading!

"Xin Fei, feel free to speak!" Leng Ao Tian looked at Su Man He suspiciously.

"Chenqie requests Your Majesty to give the empress some face! As long as she is allowed to leave the cold palace, no matter where she goes, it will be considered as her fate! " A hint of sharpness flashed in her shallow eyes. If she was forced by the circumstances, she really hoped that woman would die in the cold palace! However, the moment he received the news, the emperor had already arranged for Xu Bixuan to stay in the Feather Leaning Pavilion! There was a saying that goes: haste makes waste! How could she possibly lose out! If this were to spread out, it would bring about a good and generous reputation. Even if no one knew about it, in the heart of Leng Ao Tian, his own tolerance was enough to make his heart beat even more!

The truth was just as Su Man He had calculated. When Leng Ao Tian heard her request, he trembled for a moment! The open strife in the backyard of the palace was much better than the battle on the battlefield, but he had never paid any attention to it! Because in this place, there was no woman he cared about! And at this time, what he did not expect was that Su Manhe would actually plead on behalf of Xu Bixuan. For a woman who should have taken her place, even he might not be able to do such a thing!

"If Your Majesty feels that chenqie is more important than she is, then chenqie is willing to accept the punishment!" Seeing Leng AoTian standing there in a daze, Su Man He quickly kneeled down, a trace of fear flashing across her limpid eyes!

"Ah …" No! Dear Consort, quickly get up! How could I blame you! I only feel that there is no one in this harem more forgiving than you! Manhe! "We will do as you ask, and we will do as you ask. We won't miss a single thing that should belong to you!" Leng Ao Tian pulled Su Man He up and hugged her tightly. He thought that his heart was closer to her!

Su Manhe's bright eyes slightly narrowed as a trace of happiness flashed through them. In an instant, she had recovered and a smile appeared on her face.

Icily and emotionally, he looked at the woman who was playing the zither. After the song was finished, he walked forward and personally wiped off the sweat on her forehead …

"Manhe!" The low voice could not hide the fire of desire in his heart. Although it was a sunny day, Leng Ao Tian still could not help but pick up Su Man He and quickly walk into the inner room!

Inside the Feather Pavilion, Xu Bixuan had been tormented for several times. In the end, she was too tired and fell asleep. In her dream, a man in snow-white clothes appeared in front of her, a faint smile on his face.

The scene flashed past her eyes. She saw her daughter, who had just been born, dancing with joy as if she were talking to her. Senior Servant Gui was also carefully combing her hair! Everything was so beautiful! It was so good that she didn't want to wake up! Suddenly, the scene changed once again. It was an eye-piercing bright red colour. Senior Servant Gui silently fell to the ground. The bloody object within the cradle was swaying before her eyes …

"Empress!" "Empress!" As if she had heard someone calling out to her, Xu Bixuan struggled to open her eyes, an anxious little face reflected in her eyes.

"Little An …" Xu Bixuan let out a long breath as she spoke weakly, the sweat on her forehead flowing down like a stream of water!

"Empress!" You have a nightmare! "You're scaring Xiao An!" Little An's heart ached as he looked at his master. He handed the towel in his hand to Xu Bixuan, feeling extremely conflicted. The heavens were truly unfair. Such a good person had to endure such great pain!

"Is that so …" "Little An, when did you arrive?" Xu Bixuan wiped the sweat off her forehead and asked weakly.

"I've always been secretly following you. I only dared to show my face after seeing that everyone had left. Empress, you're out of the cold palace now. What should we do next?" Little An respectfully took the towel from Xu Bixuan and asked carefully.

Xu Bixuan used some strength in her arms and shifted her body a little. Leaning against the bed rail, she looked at Little An's uneasy eyes and spoke with a faint smile.

It's not that he has feelings, but that he is indeed a filial son. If it wasn't for the jade hairpin in my hand, even if I were to die, he wouldn't even spare me a glance! Therefore, the only thing we can do now is to hide our true abilities! "Little An, how is the matter that I told you to investigate?" Xu Bixuan's long, shapely eyebrows slightly knitted together as she pursed her dry lips.

"Niangniang, this servant has asked around. That woman called Su Manhe is not simple. During this one month, the emperor hasn't even gone to any of his concubines' chambers, only staying in the Purple Lai Pavilion!"

"Is that so?" The Xu Bixuan who had once been deaf and deaf was already dead. Now, she wanted to thoroughly understand all the variables within this harem! According to what Little An said, it seems like this woman called Su Manhe really had some tricks up her sleeve. Xu Bixuan believed that the harem didn't have any special favors, only clever tactics!

"Hm!" I heard that even Consort Jin couldn't beat her! " Yasuko answered truthfully.

"Consort! "Humph!" After hearing these two words, Xu Bixuan's eyes glowed with a bloodthirsty light. Today's matter was likely due to her loss of favour, she had once told herself that the world was hellish, that it was better to die than to live. But now, to a consort who had been condescending for ten years, losing favor was a fatal blow! However, she would not be so biased towards Xia Yan'er! She would slowly settle this grudge with her!

As for Su Manhe, if she was able to block her path to revenge, then she would absolutely not be lenient!

In fact, the moment Xu Bixuan knew the truth, she had said goodbye to the weakness and compromise of a woman! Right now, she was facing a completely new battle! Furthermore, she had no way to lose!

"Empress, could it be that you will always live here?" His Majesty, he … It can't be that I'm making things difficult for you anymore, right? " This was An Zi's hope. If he could live a peaceful life, it might be a good thing!

How is this possible!?" Little An, you should be well aware of how much the emperor hates me. Even a beast would occasionally show mercy, but a beast is still a beast. You can't ask too much of it! I believe that in a few days, I will have a new place to stay! " "In Xu Bixuan's eyes, her deep voice, her vicious eyes, and her hidden sorrow, were even worse than a beast!

Upon hearing this, Little An gently turned his face away and wiped away the tears in his eyes. He then turned around and looked at Xu Bixuan, whose face was still pale …

"No matter where the empress goes, little An is inseparable …" The resolution in her eyes moved Xu Bixuan a little.

"Little An, you have to remember that no matter what happens, you have to promise me that you will protect yourself well. If I'm not wrong, in this huge harem, the only room that can accommodate me is the slave quarters! This was the only fate for the crippled empress and woman from the cold palace! If it's really like that, you must be careful in everything you do and don't act impulsively. If there's anything urgent, we'll arrange a location for you to secretly come find me! " His lips curled up into a smile, but there was a faint trace of worry! How could she not know Little An's temperament?

"Empress, don't worry. Little An will definitely keep his life. I've seen the empress avenging the little princess and Senior Servant Gui with my own eyes!" Little An stretched out his sleeve and wiped away his snot and tears.

"Someone is coming! "Quickly hide!" Xu Bixuan looked at the door warily as Little An hurriedly hid behind the drapes in the inner room!

"Greetings to the empress!" Outside the door, a sonorous and forceful voice could be heard. Xu Bixuan's heart slightly relaxed …

"Doctor Zhang, please come in!" Xu Bixuan wanted to stand up and welcome him, but he discovered that her body was truly quite weak. Even standing up felt very strenuous for her!

"Empress, don't move!" Zhang Qirin pushed the door open and entered the Yu Lu pavilion. Seeing Xu Bixuan about to get up, she quickly walked to the bed and stopped her thoughts.

"Doctor Zhang, why are you here?" Xu Bixuan was well aware of the rules of the palace. There was a strict rule for those who were not eunuchs to enter or leave the imperial harem. She did not want to implicate Zhang Gou Ren!

"Don't worry Queen, it's His Majesty who has golden lips and pearly words. He has designated this humble subject to specially take care of your body!" So the empress doesn't have to worry! "Empress, what sort of strange feeling do you feel in your body?" A trace of gratitude appeared in Zhang Gongzi's heart. He knew the Empress's intentions.

"That's good! That's good! Me? He just felt weak, and sometimes he felt dizzy! Everything else is fine! " Xu Bixuan calmly said, 'Is this a gift from Leng Ao Tian?!'

"Don't worry Queen, this humble subject has brought a thousand year ginseng with me today. I guarantee that all the anomalies will be eliminated after you drink it!" As Zhang Ran spoke, he took out a boiled soup from the medicine kit!

Hearing this, Xu Bixuan trembled and stopped Zhang Gongzi's movements.

"This... How can you use such a precious item on me!? If someone uses this as an excuse, how will you escape!? Bring it back while no one is looking! Or they could be sent directly to the Purple Lai Pavilion! "Quickly!"

"Empress, don't worry, this ginseng is not an item from the Medicine Department, but a personal item that I have collected for many years! The Empress's body is so weak. If we don't properly repair it, it might leave some hidden ailments! " Zhang Qirin was determined to bring out the ginseng Tang!

"This... "How merciful, you've troubled yourself!" Xu Bixuan felt the sincerity coming from Zhang Gongzi, so she no longer refused.

"This... This humble subject shall feed the medicine to the Empress! " Zhang Ran looked around the pavilion but did not see a single servant girl. Coupled with Xu Bixuan's body being so weak, it was at this moment that Little An in the inner room ran out …
