The palace servants kneeled down. No one expected that Shen Guijun, who had always been gentle and good-tempered, would suddenly say such words. They didn't dare to look up at the Emperor's face, but they had heard about the Emperor's temper. Shen Guijun's words would definitely anger the Emperor.
What they couldn't figure out was why Shen Yu wanted to dig his own grave. The Emperor doted on him, but since ancient times, how could there only be one beauty in the Emperor's harem? Shen Yu not only showed his jealousy, but also used threats. Wasn't he cutting off his own path of retreat?
Mu Xi's forehead was covered with a layer of fine sweat. She restrained the fear in her heart and looked up. Unfortunately, from her angle, she could only see her son's face and not the Emperor's expression.
In the oppressive silence, Eunuch Meng carefully looked at the Emperor's face. Suddenly, his heart jumped.
— — The Emperor didn't look angry.
When he looked at Shen Yu again, he still had a smile on his face. Only his pitch-black eyes gave off a bone-chilling coldness.
Eunuch Meng couldn't understand the Duke of Zhenbei's son.
The two protagonists, who were silently watched, didn't care about the palace servants' thoughts. Shen Yu looked at the handsome Emperor in front of him and said, "Your Majesty, do you really want to accept a new person into the harem?"
"How can my noble Emperor be so jealous?" Shang Junlin leaned close to Shen Yu's ear and said in a low voice with a hint of hint, "If your noble Emperor can use practical actions to dispel my thoughts, I will do as you say."
The two didn't seem to be talking about the expansion of the Emperor's harem, but something insignificant.
Shen Yu lowered his eyes and glanced at the kneeling palace servants. His eyes lingered on a little eunuch for a while. When the eunuch realized something was wrong, he withdrew his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, do you really want to be here in front of these people?"
Shang Junlin held Shen Yu's waist and put him on his lap. He casually glanced at Eunuch Meng and said, "Meng Chang, take them out."
Eunuch Meng didn't dare to disobey. He bowed his head and took all the palace servants away.
After the palace servants left, Shen Yu loosened her grip on Shang Junlin's collar and wanted to get down from Shang Junlin's lap.
Just as he moved, he felt the arm around his waist tighten. Shen Yu looked at Shang Junlin in confusion. His gaze seemed to say, "She's gone. Shouldn't you let go of me now?"
Unexpectedly, not only did Shang Junlin not let go of her, he even pulled her into his arms and asked meaningfully, "Guijun, what do you think?"
"Is Your Majesty dissatisfied with my performance just now?" Shen Yu glared at him, "Presumably, the whole capital will soon know that Shen Guijun, who just entered the palace, is not only jealous, but also threatened His Majesty not to accept new people into the palace."
"Your Majesty, how do you plan to compensate me for the loss of my reputation?"
Shang Junlin lifted Shen Yu's chin and looked at him deeply. "What kind of compensation do you want?"
"I'm tired of looking at the treasures of Yuzhang Palace, Your Majesty …"
"Your appetite is not small."
Shang Junlin's words were not false. Yuzhang Palace was the most gorgeous palace except for a few main palaces. There were many rare treasures used for decoration. In terms of magnificence, it was even better than the Emperor's bedroom.
After Shen Yu became the master of the Jade Gate Palace, the emperor's rewards were even more endless. Which one of them wasn't a precious item? Shen Yu, on the other hand, lightly said that he was tired of looking at them, and Shang Jun Lin had to send him a new batch.
"Your Majesty is too kind." Shen Yu took Shang Junlin's words as a compliment. His eyebrows curved, and his index finger tapped the man's shoulder. "When does Your Majesty plan to let me go?"
Shang Junlin had one hand on Shen Yu's waist and the other hand pinched his chin. Hearing this, Shang Junlin let go of his hand, and Shen Yu slowly moved away from the man.
This time, he did not encounter any obstacles.
Shen Yu turned back. Shang Junlin had already started reading the memorials again. Other than suddenly stopping him, there was nothing strange.
Shen Yu shook off the various thoughts in his mind and picked up the royal family genealogy that Shang Junlin had sent over.
The royal family, especially Shang Junlin's generation, did not have a large population. Other than the King of Yue, the other members of the royal family were very well-behaved. Even the King of Yue did not dare to show any ambition at this stage.
Shang Junlin rested in Yuzhang Palace for the night. The next morning, he sent a large number of rewards to Yuzhang Palace under the pretext of appeasing Noble Lord You Si. Eunuch Meng personally came to announce the decree. Everyone in Yuzhang Palace, who had been worried all night, was finally relieved.
Mu Xi chose items that Shen Yu liked from the storeroom and rearranged Yuzhang Palace. Shen Yu held a novel and read it outside while sunbathing.
Imperial Physician Gu, whom he had not seen for many days, came to see him. Mu Xi knew that his master paid attention to Imperial Physician Gu, so he personally brought him over.
"I haven't seen you for many days. Is Imperial Physician Gu well?" Shen Yu raised his head from the novel and asked in a lazy voice.
Imperial Physician Gu knelt down and saluted, "This official thanks Noble Lord for saving my life."
"Imperial Physician Gu, what are you talking about? I have been staying in Yuzhang Palace all this time. How can I bear Imperial Physician Gu's' saving grace '?" Shen Yu tilted his head, "Imperial Physician Gu, please rise."
Shen Yu's life-saving grace was not something that could be ignored just because he refused to admit it. Imperial Physician Gu also knew that there were many eyes in the palace. He listened to Shen Yu and stood up, "Please extend your hand. This official will take your pulse."
Imperial Physician Gu stretched out his snow-white wrist from the wide sleeve. He looked straight at Shen Yu and finished taking his pulse, "Your pulse is stable. You can change to the next nursing prescription."
"Thank you, Imperial Physician Gu."
"This is this official's duty." If it was Imperial Physician Gu's duty to nurse Shen Yu's body in the past as a doctor, from now on, there was an unspeakable kindness. Imperial Physician Gu became more and more concerned about Shen Yu's physical condition.
Imperial Physician Gu really appreciated Shen Yu's kindness. If Shen Yu had not announced that he was not allowed to treat other people, he would not have been able to help when those people came to beg for help. He would have lost his life for nothing.
He escaped a disaster because of Shen Yu's words. No matter what purpose Shen Yu had for saying those words, it could not change the fact that had happened. According to His Majesty's attitude towards those people, if he really got involved in this matter, he was afraid that it would be difficult to escape being held accountable.
If it was light, he would lose his official position. If it was heavy, he would lose his life.
When Imperial Physician Gu left, he couldn't help but think, did Shen Guijun realize something when he said those words?
When he returned to the Imperial Hospital, his familiar colleagues came to greet him. Imperial Physician Gu had always been very popular. Soon, many people gathered around him.
Several people walked inside while discussing medical skills.
Suddenly, there was a low voice of discussion not far away.
"This Shen Guijun is so beautiful that His Majesty promised that he would not accept any new people."
"More than that. I heard that he even threatened that he would kill as many people as they entered the palace …"
"This is too … Does His Majesty let him do as he pleases?"
"He is now favored. What does His Majesty not want? I heard that in order to appease this noble, His Majesty rewarded a lot of things to Yuzhang Palace. "
"But he is just a man. He can't have children. Will His Majesty not have any descendants for his whole life because of him?"
"Count Zhenbei really made a profit by sending a charming legitimate son into the palace. In the future, he will have everything he wants."
"…"
Imperial Physician Gu suddenly stopped. The person who was discussing a pathology with him was surprised, "What's wrong?"
"Please wait for me." After that, regardless of the doubtful expressions of his colleagues, he walked towards the group of people who were talking.
The people who were left behind looked at each other, "What's going on?"
"I don't know. Let's go and have a look."
"Who allowed you to talk about the royal family's affairs?" Imperial Physician Gu said coldly.
The people who were talking excitedly suddenly stopped and lowered their heads guiltily, "I know I was wrong."
They were all small officials of the Imperial Hospital. Imperial Physician Gu was their immediate superior. Naturally, they did not want to offend him.
Imperial Physician Gu wrote down their identities, "Next time, don't let me hear you talk about these things."
It was indeed inappropriate to talk about the royal family's private affairs. They nodded.
The colleagues who followed Imperial Physician Gu became more and more confused. When did Imperial Physician Gu care about these trivial matters?
After this incident, the world once again refreshed the degree of favor Shen Yu had. His Majesty was willing to empty the harem for him. It could be seen how deep his love was.
Those ministers who wanted to send people to the harem had to give up the idea. His Majesty's attitude was already very obvious. If they really wanted to send people to the harem, there would be no more people sent in in less than a day.
Especially those who wanted to send their children to the harem, they no longer dared to say anything. They wanted people to enter the harem to fight for favor and give back to their families, not to send people to die.
In the morning, the Emperor expressed his attitude that he would not accept new people. After the morning court, Duke Zhenbei walked out in a trance under the envious and jealous eyes of the ministers.
"Duke," someone approached, "Duke Zhenbei really taught a good son."
Several people gathered around, "Duke Zhenbei, you have to persuade your noble son. As the Emperor's people, how can he be so jealous?"
"Yes, now His Majesty likes him, but if one day …"
Duke Zhenbei was annoyed, his face became cold, "Don't put on a good attitude for my son. If you have the ability, then let His Majesty only favor your daughter."
After that, regardless of the face of the people who were insulted, he turned around and left.
If it was in the past, he would be ecstatic that Shen Yu was so favored, but now he was not sure about Shen Yu's attitude towards the Duke Zhenbei's mansion. Speaking of hostility towards the Duke Zhenbei's mansion, other than Shen Qingran and his son, he did not do anything else.
I have to find a time to test his attitude towards the Duke Zhenbei's mansion, Duke Zhenbei secretly decided.
After the morning court, Shang Junlin went directly to Yuzhang Palace, followed by Eunuch Meng, followed by two little eunuchs who were holding memorials.
Since that day, His Majesty seemed to want to compensate Shen Guijun. Every day, except for the morning court, he would stay in Yuzhang Palace most of the time.
Shen Yu was tending to a pot of light green flowers and plants. The branches and leaves were sharp, only half the height of a palm. It was planted in a white porcelain pot with light blue patterns.
"This grass grows very well." Mu Xi said.
"It has a name, it's called Junling," Shen Yu took the handkerchief Mu Xi handed over, "It grows well, it should be able to survive this winter."
"Imperial Physician Gu said that it can help sleep, is that true?" Mu Xi was skeptical. No matter how she looked at it, it was an ordinary grass, except that its color was more tender than ordinary grass.
"Since Imperial Physician Gu sent it here, it must be effective." Shen Yu looked at it for a while, then poured some water on it, "Did you find out what happened to Imperial Physician Gu?"
Imperial Physician Gu's case involved the most sensitive topic at present. Whether it was Shen Yu or Imperial Physician Gu himself, it was not convenient for them to talk about it to outsiders. Shen Yu still did not know why Imperial Physician Gu was involved in the case and even lost his life because of it in his previous life.
"This servant …" Mu Xi was about to answer when she was interrupted by a man who suddenly entered the door.
