Hard to Get: Charming Abandoned Empress

Xu Bixuan quietly knelt on the ground, listening to the footsteps that gradually drew closer. For a moment, her eyes were filled with tears, and her body was trembling!

"What does Xin Fei mean by this?" The originally furious Leng Ao Tian, upon entering, saw Su Man He weakly kneeling in front of him. His tone naturally became a bit more gentle.

"Chenqie knows she's guilty and kneels here to wake herself up!" There was a trace of guilt in her soft voice, and her cold, arrogant eyes softened. She walked in and sat on the side of the table. She did not extend her hand to support Su Manhe, nor did she open her mouth to get her up!

This was what Su Man He expected. She quietly knelt there, waiting for Leng Ao Tian to ask, but a cold chill ran through her heart. This was a man that kept saying that he loved her for ten years, but once he got it, he would stop cherishing her.

"I'd like to hear what Xin Fei's crimes are?" The line of blood on Xu Bixuan's jade wrist flashed across her eyes. Her gentle eyes once again became ice-cold, and her clear voice began to emit a chilling aura.

"Ten years ago, chenqie shouldn't have met the emperor and had deep feelings for him. Ten years later, chenqie shouldn't have entered the palace and received a concubine. Tonight, chenqie shouldn't have tried to guess at her holy will and should not have punished Xu Bixuan for her crimes. Please... The Emperor punishes you! " Su Man He's eyes were still downcast, the light in her eyes like smoke.

Leng Ao Tian's heart skipped a beat at this moment. Looking at Su Man He who knelt beside him, he seemed to have a thousand words stuck in his throat. He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word! After all, he was apologizing to this woman!

He stood up and slowly helped Su Man He up from the cold stone. Looking at her pale face, a trace of bitterness flashed through his heart, because at this moment, he suddenly realized that there was no longer only this woman in his heart.

"Sit down and talk!" Qing Yue's voice was as cold as before, but there was no trace of anger in it. Su Manhe knew clearly in his heart that if it wasn't for that apology, she probably wouldn't have been able to escape death today!

Although Su Manhe stood up, she did not sit down. Instead, she respectfully stood to the side.

"If Your Majesty doesn't blame me for what I said earlier, then what other crimes does chenqie have?" Su Manhe's eyes slightly flashed. Her originally humble and respectful attitude became even more humble, causing others to feel reluctant to part with him.

"I ask you, in the Cold Palace Forest Garden, has Xin Fei ever hurt Xu Bi Xuan? Have you ever tried to kill her while supporting her?! " In Leng Ao Tian's heart, he had already determined that Su Man He was the real culprit. Although he had asked his, he just wanted to hear her admit it himself! He had left Eunuch Li outside, so he didn't want the matter to get out. As for Su Manhe, he had left a way out!

"Since the Emperor asked this, he must have already come to a conclusion in his heart. However, Manhe still has to speak up for himself. Chenqie doesn't!" He didn't do anything, and Chenqie didn't know why the emperor would suspect Manhe. From start to finish, Chenqie never left the emperor's sight. Even if there was a chance, Chenqie couldn't imagine any reason to hurt someone who had nothing to do with her! "Perhaps at this point, if Your Majesty believes that this is chenqie's fortune, then if Your Majesty doesn't believe that it is also chenqie's life!" Su Man He's voice was calm and gentle, like a long stream of water, but it faintly contained a sense of grievance.

"Forget it!" Since Xin Fei said no, then I'll believe it! "I won't bother you anymore if you haven't slept that night. Rest well!" Regardless of whether it was true or not, Leng Ao Tian decided not to pursue the matter anymore. If the truth was as he thought, what would he do to Su Man He?

"Your Majesty …" Aren't you going to rest here? " Su Man He raised her eyes, her long and thick eyelashes fluttering slightly. Her eyes were filled with hope, although in her heart, Su Man He no longer had any feelings for Leng Ao Tian, but her words, her eyes, must be expressed!

"No …" No! "We still have things to do!" Leng Ao Tian avoided Su Man He's gaze. Not only today, ever since he had clearly recognized Xu Bi Xuan's feelings for her, he had unintentionally rejected Su Man He's good intentions. This was one of the reasons for his guilt!

"Then... This official is respectfully sending you off, your majesty! " What Su Man He wanted was for him to avoid looking at her. This meant that in Leng Ao Tian's heart, his guilt was not the least bit high. It also meant that he still had a show to play!

"Hm!" You should get some rest as well! " Leng Ao Tian felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders. As he turned around, he saw the scissors on the table! His heart sank, and the light in his eyes disappeared!

Su Man He watched as Leng Ao Tian disappeared from her line of sight, the warmth in her eyes gradually condensing. There was not much time left for her, if she could not sit on the empress's throne before Leng Ao Tian's apologetic heart ran out, then what awaited her was an unrecoverable situation!

Su Man He sat down dispiritedly. However, it was easier said than done to get the position of Empress! She could no longer afford it. It was not that she lacked energy, it was not that she did not have time, it was that she did not have confidence!

"Empress …" Just as Su Manhe was racking her brains to come up with a plan to get rid of Xu Bixuan, Little Peach Blossom ran out with a flustered expression!

"You still have the nerve to say it!" Su Man He's eyes were as sharp as an eagle as they landed on Little Peach Blossom's body. Both of her hands could not help but clench into fists, and when Leng Ao Tian turned around, her eyes fell on the scissors. Su Man He was clear about this, this matter Leng Ao Tian did not want to pursue this matter, because he did not know how to deal with him. And the scissors on the desk had no doubt confirmed what he was thinking!

"Mother …" "Empress …" No... Not good, there's a letter outside the palace! " It was rare for Little Peach Blossom to be this angry at Su Man He, so she was greatly shocked in her heart, but she didn't dare to late report the important information in her hands!

"Wh …" "What?!" Su Man He's expression suddenly changed and she quickly walked to the door. After looking around, she closed the door and turned around, pulling Little Peach Blossom along as fast as lightning as she entered the inner room!

"What letter?!" Su Manhe was no longer in the mood to pursue Little Peach Blossom's mistake. To her, news from outside the palace was the most important!

"On... "Here!" Little Peach Blossom quickly handed the slip of paper she just received in front of Su Manhe and carefully observed Su Manhe's expression!

Su Man He couldn't wait to open the slip of paper. At the same time, she kept glancing toward the door, afraid that she would miss something!

"There is already someone in the palace who suspects your identity. Send Immortal Sword Xuan Xiao to investigate on his own! "We must uncover him, and eliminate him as a threat in the future!"

The air in the Purple Lai Pavilion became even more deathly still, the oppressive aura causing Little Peach Red to be unable to breathe. Occasionally, she would raise her eyes and see Su Man He's hands that were trembling from anger. Little Peach was so scared that her entire body was trembling. She hurriedly retracted her gaze and stood where she was trembling with fear. She didn't even dare to breathe loudly!

Su Manhe slowly sat down on the rosewood chair. The paper in her hand was already crumpled to the point that it looked like it was about to fall off. Her eyes were filled with overflowing anger, and her entire body was trembling uncontrollably.

"Empress …" Did something happen? " In the end, Little Peach Blossom was unable to hold back and just as she finished speaking, she regretted her words.

Su Manhe suddenly turned her head, and her biting cold eyes stared straight at Little Peach Blossom.

"This servant knows her wrongs …" Without another word, Little Peach Red kneeled to the ground. Her heart was beating rapidly and her throat felt like it was being choked as she swallowed hard. Her hands that were lying on the ground kept on shaking.

"Useless thing! Bring the candle flame! " Su Man He looked at the trembling Little Peach Blossom and her ruthless eyes stared at the slip of paper in her hand. There was not a single trace of warmth on her face!

"Yes …" "Yes …" Little Peach Blossom did not dare to delay any longer. She quickly got up, took the candle beside her, and placed it beside Su Man He!

The dim candlelight was like a reed swaying incessantly in the wind. The candlelight illuminated Su Man He's ice-cold face. From time to time, it would flicker and dim, and her pair of crimson eyes would become increasingly strange!

Su Man He held the deformed piece of paper in his hand and placed it on the candle flame. With a "peng" sound, along with the rising smoke, the paper in Su Manhe's hand turned into ashes! The remaining portion of her hand had already touched Su Manhe's jade fingers, but she seemed completely unaware of it. Her eyes were bloodshot!

"Empress …" Hand... Your hand! "

Fortunately, with Little Peach Blossom's reminder, Su Man He pulled back her blackened fingers and subconsciously held them with her other hand. Her eyes were still as cold as ever!

"Little Peach Blossom!" "Come here!" Su Man He took a deep breath and concealed all the violence. His eyes were not as cold as they were before.

"Empress …" She took a few steps forward and lowered her eyes, not daring to look straight at Su Manhe.

"This note came from a carrier pigeon?" Su Man stabilized her mind. Since there was someone in the palace investigating her background, there must be someone suspicious of her. If this person was not eliminated, it would be a disaster!

"In reply to the Empress …" No... No, it was personally sent by Honorable Highdragon's head of the four protectors, the Azure Dragon! When the Emperor was outside with you! " Little Peach Red could even recall the scene from before. If it wasn't for the Azure Dragon tapping on her acupoints, she would have cried out in fear. Even now, she was still in a state of shock!
