Chapter 99 - The Pleasure of Torture

Qin Luofei nodded. It seemed like the Emperor Ming had always been in contact with the Huan Beauty, but had always been secretly walking around, probably because of the child in the Huan Beauty's womb.

"Go rest!" After Qin Luofei sent Zi Yuan away, a smile leaked out from the corner of her mouth. There was another good show to watch in the palace.

Du Qingcheng was afraid that he would be disappointed.

On the second day, Du Qingcheng asked the emperor and the empress dowager to enter the palace to pray for his blessings. The empress dowager and the emperor both agreed.

Qin Luofei left Caihua in the palace, bringing Zi Yuan alone. Since Zi Yuan knew martial arts and was a member of the Mo family, she could easily handle things.

After entering the palace for so long, she was on the verge of going crazy, but she couldn't not listen to Miss's orders, so she had to stay and watch the door.

She was going to pray for her blessings, so she could not wear it too beautifully. She only wore dark green dress train s, so she did not even take off her hairpin, and traded it for a jade hairpin to hold her hair. This time Du Qingcheng even brought Consort Shu with her.

Qin Luofei didn't want to be mixed up with this Consort Shu, but she kept having the feeling that this Consort Shu was indescribably evil.

She wanted to avoid Consort Shu, but Consort Shu wanted to provoke her. She asked Du Qingcheng for permission and asked to ride with her in the same carriage, angering Qin Luofei to death. If it wasn't for her leaving the palace with all her heart, she really wouldn't have left.

It was not a simple matter for the empress to leave the palace. The Ministry of Internal Affairs was in a frenzy as they prepared dozens of carriages. The eunuchs, palace maids and imperial guards numbered in the thousands.

With Zi Yuan's help, Qin Luofei was helped up the carriage, and saw that the Consort Shu was already sitting inside.

"Queen of Consort Shu." Seeing this monster always made her feel displeased.

Consort Shu affectionately grabbed Qin Luofei's hand, pulled her to his side, and chattered: "Little sister, you really miss big sister. You aren't going to go play in big sister's palace, you really make big sister wish."

I'm not a Emperor Ming, what do you want me to do? Could it be that you like women, this Consort Shu is really acting.

Qin Luofei found it hard to hate a woman, but this Consort Shu was the one she hated the most after she came to Imperial Consort Leng.

"Little sister, I miss you too, but I want to serve the emperor so I might not have the time to talk to you, and I'm not in a good position to disturb you."

Consort Shu covered her lips and smiled flirtatiously. "No wonder Your Majesty said that little sister is interesting, little sister is really an interesting person. Even the elders of Empress Dowager say that little sister understands the general situation and wants me to get closer to little sister."

The Consort Shu dressed up very grandly. Wearing a golden embroidered robe and using silver and gold thread to embroider these complicated Dragon Cloud Marks, the originally beautiful person became even more charming.

Each of the nine phoenixes containing a pearl on the hairpin was about the size of a thumb.

In this palace, only the Consort Shu and the Imperial Consort Leng have this kind of honor. Her outfit is comparable to a queen's.

Half closing her eyes, she leaned on the orchid pillow in the carriage and said in a bland voice: "Empress Dowager has a heart of gold. He dotes on us juniors, how could his little sister compare to elder sister?"

Consort Shu clearly saw that Qin Luofei was cold and indifferent to her, but she didn't care.

In the end, Qin Luofei could only pretend to be asleep.

"Sister, do you hate sister?" Seeing Qin Luofei ignore her, the Consort Shu was luckily angry.

Qin Luofei was extremely agitated. The other concubine s were all hiding their intentions, and since Consort Shu was a good man, she had to say whatever she wanted to say openly to her. It would be hard for her to adapt to it in a short period of time.

"Little sister, we were on good terms in the pavilion with Princess Jin Yun, the princess' life was gone, and little sister was sad, it's not that she doesn't care about big sister." Qin Luofei's words were pleasant to hear, and in her heart she wished that she could throw Consort Shu out of the carriage.

Consort Shu pursed her lips into a smile, and said slowly: "Little sister, don't lie to me. I feel that little sister doesn't like me, and furthermore, doesn't like the emperor either. I'm thinking about why little sister entered the palace."

Qin Luofei felt cold sweat trickle down her back. Was this Consort Shu an intelligent person? She seemed to be speaking crazily with meticulous care.

"Sister, what did you say? The younger sister didn't understand. Moreover, not everyone can like the Emperor. Even if the Emperor doesn't like the younger sister, it would be in vain. "

The Consort Shu's devastatingly beautiful face pressed closer to Qin Luofeng, smiling, "How do you know that Your Majesty doesn't like you? Perhaps Your Majesty really does like his younger sister."

"Elder sister, are you sleepwalking? Don't you dare frighten your sister. " Qin Luofei cordially stretched out her hand to touch Consort Shu's forehead, but was fiercely pulled away by him.

"I only advise my sister and the empress to go far away. Otherwise, you won't even know how you died." Consort Shu drew back her body and leaned against the soft cushion. Her wide sleeves flowed like water and covered her body.

No wonder the Emperor Ming doted on her. She was indeed a rare beauty.

"Little sister, you don't even know what big sister is saying? "Sister only knows that the palace is lonely, sister is bored, sister can accompany sister on a stroll around the courtyard, in case sister curses sister to die early." Qin Luofei had a few headaches as she dealt with the Consort Shu.

Consort Shu was just like the Emperor, a pervert who made torture fun of others.

Consort Shu no longer spoke and closed her eyes.

Qin Luofei's ears were very clear. When the horse carriage arrived at South Street, she quietly lifted a corner of the carriage's curtain and looked outside.

This street was bustling as usual. The only thing was that he didn't know if Mo Ling Jian had found his brother, or if he had to stand alone in the palace with no help.

If he left the palace, he would definitely have to stay in the temple for the night. Would he be able to contact Mo Ling Jian?

Qin Luofei closed the curtain, but when she turned around, she found Consort Shu's eyes staring at her unblinkingly, causing her to feel a little guilty.

"Big sister, why are you looking at your little sister like that?"

"I was just wondering what my sister was looking at." The corner of Consort Shu's mouth revealed a strange light smile.

Qin Luofei felt that using the same carriage as the Consort Shu was the wrong decision, if she continued to pester her like this in the temple, she probably wouldn't even have the chance to meet Mo Ling Jian.

The horse carriage left the city and headed towards the south mountains. When noon arrived, the carriage stopped, everyone ate a bit of food and rested for a while. Taking advantage of the convenient time, Qin Luofei secretly instructed Zi Yuan to contact Mo Ling Jian incomparable.

Qin Luofei was very relieved that Zi Yuan was being so cautious, but since the Consort Shu's thoughts were unfathomable, she didn't mind.

Seeing that the Consort Shu did not have anything to eat, Qin Luofei said: "Elder sister, you should eat something! In case I get hungry. "

"Sister, you really dare to eat it, aren't you afraid that someone will poison you?" Consort Shu looked coldly at Qin Luofei. She refused to speak of the pastries that Qin Luofei held in her hands no matter what. She had completely forgotten.

"Sister, don't worry. Du Qingcheng still needs your sister, she wouldn't immediately poison your sister with poison. However, with the chronic poison, it's possible that she likes the emperor and wouldn't be able to accommodate other women who sleep on the same bed as the emperor."

Qin Luofei was already speechless towards this Consort Shu. She wanted to make the conflict with Du Qingcheng their business, but she wouldn't interfere.

Du Qingcheng also got off the horse carriage and walked over. Qin Luofei quickly went over to welcome him, but Consort Shu was still lazily leaning on the horse carriage, looking down on the empress Du Qingcheng.

"Big sister, why did you get off the carriage? What do you want to eat? Have the palace maids bring it to you, little sister is afraid it won't be safe around you." Qin Luofei affectionately pulled Du Qingcheng's hand.

Consort Shu snorted coldly from the side and turned her head away.

Qin Luofei pulled Du Qingcheng's hand and brought her back to the carriage. When he was far away from the Consort Shu, he said, "Elder sister, why do I feel that the words that the Empress is saying are very strange?"

Du Qingcheng smiled slightly, and said: "Little Sis, there's no need to fuss about it with her. It's because Empress Dowager is used to her. He was originally the daughter of a great general, but unfortunately, her mother died a long time ago, so the great general died in the battlefield. When the Empress Dowager saw that she was pitifully adopted by him, she treated himself as a princess, and thus had a very unruly personality.

Qin Luofei nodded and said, "So that's how it is. No wonder she has such a strange personality. The words she says always make people feel confused."

Du Qingcheng held onto Qin Luofei's hand and comforted her, "Her heart is not bad, it's just that she was spoiled too badly by the Empress Dowager and the Emperor.

"I know, sister." Qin Luofei had to send Du Qingcheng on the carriage before he came back himself.

Qin Luofei picked up the dress train, and just as she was about to get on the carriage, she saw several fast horses galloping towards them from afar.

The horses were all green horses. Their hooves were flapping and their long manes were fluttering. They were all rare mounts.

The imperial guards each drew a sword at their waists in alert, surrounding everyone within the circle.

The horses arrived in the blink of an eye.

"Who is it?" "Hurry and dismount, the Queen's imperial carriage is here." A commander of the imperial guards shouted.

The reason why the imperial guards could treat these people with such kindness was because they were dressed in luxurious clothing, unlike the descendants of ordinary families.

One of the two men in front was dressed in luxurious white silk clothing. He looked very handsome, but a devilish smile was on his lips, which gave him the appearance of a dissolute young master.

The other was tall and slender, but he wore a black cloak and a large black mask that covered his entire face, revealing only a pair of cold and clear eyes. Those eyes seemed to be able to see through everything in the world, and no one dared to look directly at them.

Qin Luofei vaguely felt that the back of this man in black looked somewhat familiar, but she couldn't place where she had seen him before.

The two of them dismounted along with the servants behind them. One of the imperial guards, the leader of the imperial guards, walked over.

"It's Young Master Yan. Where are you going?" When the leader of the imperial guards saw that jade like young master, he immediately sheathed his sword back into its scabbard.

Although the Lin Clan had left the Imperial Court for more than ten years, and had become even more powerful than before, there were rumors that the Lin Clan was already as rich as an entire nation. Young Master Yan was the foster son of the Lin Clan's Old Master, and this was something that they had met before.

"The Old Master is going to spend his seventieth birthday, and General Lin specifically ordered me to go out and search for something new." Lin Yan didn't think much of the Guard Commander.

The leader of the guards had long pledged his allegiance to the Du Clan and was working for them.

The Lin Clan and the Du Clan had always been at odds. Otherwise, the Lin Clan wouldn't have been expelled from the imperial court by the late emperor over ten years ago.

Qin Luofei's gaze had been fixated on Lin Yan the entire time. He was clearly the white-clothed man who had gone to the Qin household with his uncle to visit her, but she hadn't expected to bump into him here.
