allonlinenovel Chapter 191 Your Majesty, you certainly don't want His Majesty to know about this.
Chapter 191 Your Majesty, you certainly don't want His Majesty to know about this.
"Is His Majesty drunk?"
Fu Wan's wife, who was also Fu Shou's mother, was the elder sister of Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong.
Therefore, Fu Shou and Liu Xie were related by blood and had known each other since childhood.
Empress Fu Shou was not impressed with Liu Xie's drinking capacity.
Upon hearing that Liu Xie was drunk, Fu Shou immediately became worried, fearing that Liu Xie might cause some trouble in front of Su Yu.
Led by Dong Wan, Fu Shou arrived at Liu Xie's palace.
Fu Shou entered, but Dong Wan quietly withdrew.
She had already started experiencing morning sickness a couple of days ago.
Now is the time to take this opportunity to give that hat to Liu Xie.
Winter is coming, and it's getting cold. I'm worried that Liu Xie will get cold.
Dong Wan specially knitted a big hat for Liu Xie, showing how much she loved him!
However, the hat is green.
……
In Liu Xie's palace
It was pitch black, and the dim light only allowed Fu Shou to see a figure lying on the dragon bed.
Fu Shou asked tentatively:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, are you alright?"
The figure on the dragon bed did not answer, but only let out a muffled groan.
Fu Shou was extremely anxious.
Judging from this, Liu Xie must be drunk, and almost unconscious!
Fu Shou rushed to the vicinity of the dragon bed, took out a clean white handkerchief, and prepared to wipe Liu Xie's forehead.
but……
Before Fu Shou could react, she was pulled straight over by the figure on the dragon bed.
"Your Majesty! We are not yet officially married, this is absolutely unacceptable!"
Fu Shou shouted anxiously.
But the figure on the dragon bed gave her no chance at all.
The night is long and destined to be anything but quiet.
The white handkerchief that Fu Shou brought was also stained with specks of cinnabar, turning it somewhat crimson.
……
In Dong Wan's palace
Liu Xie was so drunk he was like a lump of mud, leaning against the bed and fast asleep.
Dong Wan ordered her personal maid to strip Liu Xie of his clothes.
Then, she created the illusion that Liu Xie and she had spent the night together.
To make the performance more realistic, Dong Wan even found a piece of blood-stained cloth.
When the morning sun shines on this palace.
Liu Xie slowly awoke from his sleep.
Looking at the blood-stained cloth and Dong Wan beside him, Liu Xie was overjoyed.
"Your Majesty certainly didn't have a moment's peace last night."
Dong Wan feigned flattery.
Upon hearing this, Liu Xie was overjoyed.
It looks like the days when Old Liu's family will reap the rewards are just around the corner!
And Liu Xie is going to be a father!
"Oh no! I'm staying at Consort Dong's place, but I don't know where Minister Su has gone."
Liu Xie suddenly slapped his forehead, only then remembering Su Yu, whom he had invited to stay overnight at the palace.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, Commandant Su is a man of propriety."
“Last night, Your Majesty was drunk, and it was Commandant Su who brought Your Majesty to me.”
"After that, Commandant Su returned to his residence."
After listening, Liu Xie sighed:
"Ziyi is truly a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty!"
"It's a pity I can't hold my liquor. Otherwise, I would have talked with Minister Su all night long."
Dong Wan smiled and said:
"There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Your Majesty can invite Commandant Su to the palace again when the time is right."
"Even Cao Mengde would never have expected that Commandant Su was already on His Majesty's side."
"Yes!"
"I await the day when Cao Mengde will be thrown into a panic!"
Liu Xie's confidence increased greatly.
It's as if the magnificent scene of the Han Dynasty's restoration is still vivid in our minds.
What Liu Xie didn't know was...
Su Yu had left the palace half an hour ago.
The Commandant of the Imperial Guards was originally the commander of the palace guards. Although he was not qualified to stay overnight in the inner palace, Liu Xie gave Su Yu special permission yesterday.
Who would dare to question Su Yu now?
So what exactly happened last night?
Let's turn our attention to Fu Shou.
On Liu Xie's dragon bed, Fu Shou held Su Yu's body, feeling very nostalgic.
But when Fu Shou realized that the person she was holding was not Liu Xie, but Su Yu, she screamed in shock!
"Shut up, it's so noisy."
Su Yu quickly covered Fu Shou's lips.
"Your Majesty, nothing happened between us last night, right?"
Fu Shouxiu's eyes blazed with fury; she wished she could bite Su Yu to death.
"Your Majesty, you probably don't want His Majesty to know that he wasn't actually in his bedchamber last night, do you?"
Fu Shou hesitated.
As the empress of the Han dynasty, she did not stay with the emperor, but with her ministers.
This……
If this gets out, will Fu Shou have no shame left?
The Liu Han imperial family, have they no shame?
"Only I know about this, and Her Majesty the Empress knows about it."
"As long as we don't say anything, nothing will happen."
"If Her Majesty the Empress feels indebted to His Majesty, she can make amends in other ways in the future."
Fu Shou shook his head violently.
How can something like this ever be made up for?
I'm afraid she won't even have the courage to face Liu Xie in the future!
"Your Majesty, it is I who have wronged you."
Fu Shou apologized to Liu Xie in her heart.
She felt she was no longer good enough for Liu Xie.
But it is clear that the position of empress was decided long ago and could not be abolished casually or without reason.
If she suddenly committed suicide, according to Han law, an autopsy would be required.
The Han dynasty empress did not stay with the emperor, but she was no longer a virgin.
If this gets out, it will be a huge scandal!
Therefore, Fu Shou no longer even had the right to commit suicide.
She could only pin her hopes on Dong Wan or other women in the harem, hoping they could bear children for Liu Xie.
In this way, she, Fu Shou, would certainly treat the children born to other women in the harem as her own.
In this way, perhaps one can lessen the sin by a little.
"Get out of here!"
"roll!"
Fu Shou suddenly turned around and angrily cursed Su Yu.
Su Yu, however, pinched her chin and laughed:
"Your Majesty, if you insult me too loudly and wake up others, that would be very bad."
Easily manipulated by Su Yu, Fu Shou instantly backed down.
Although she was quite intelligent, she was still just a young woman.
There's nothing you can do when something like this happens.
Even after Su Yu left the palace, Fu Shou remained distraught.
Feeling guilty towards Liu Xie, she could only feign illness and cold to avoid being summoned by him.
……
Su Yu was in a great mood after leaving the palace.
The director last night wasn't Su Yu, but Dong Wan.
A woman who turns evil can be quite terrifying.
During her numerous trips outside the palace, Dong Wan became pregnant.
However, to this day, Liu Xie has never had a proper marital ceremony with her.
Registering a child's household registration has become a major problem.
After Su Yu traveled back to the late Han Dynasty, he realized that many palace dramas in later generations were actually filmed in a rather obscure way.
For example, Emperor Shao of Han, Liu Bian, was somewhat dim-witted and lacked common sense.
The Book of the Later Han, written during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, discusses Emperor Shao of Han, Liu Bian, and the foolish Emperor Hui of Jin, Sima Zhong, together.
According to Cao Song, Cao Cao's father, Su Yu once said that the young emperor Liu Bian was very likely not Liu Hong's biological son!
Because Liu Bian was born at about seven and a half months, and Empress Dowager He did not experience any falls that led to premature birth.
So, is there a possibility?
In fact, Liu Bian was not a premature baby; he did stay in Empress Dowager He's womb for more than nine months, but he was not Liu Hong's son.
Of course, this is just a guess.
Anyway, Liu Hong was already dead, and the young emperor Liu Bian was poisoned by Li Ru, so there was no way to verify the facts.
