Lian Chengming never thought that Liu Ruyan would suddenly kneel to him, this was not what he wanted.
”If beloved consort has anything to say, just say it, get up first. ”There's no need to be so courteous with me.”
He personally bent down and helped Liu Ruyan up.
However, Liu Ruyan didn't think that she was being overly courteous. After all, this time she had a request for him.
This time, she wanted Lian Chengming to do one thing and it would not be beneficial to him.
Because every time she was ”willful” before, she had been planning behind Lian Chengming's back, so she did not have any scruples.
”Chenqie wants the emperor to be able to change the cold palace a bit. She doesn't need to be gorgeous, she just needs a place to shelter from the wind and the rain. ”
Lian Chengming did not expect this to happen.
To him, the Cold Palace was not a big deal, but right now, he really wanted to know why Liu Ruyan was thinking about this.
Was it pity for that crazy woman?
With that in mind, Lian Chengming asked his the reason.
Liu Ruyan suddenly raised her head and looked at Lian Chengming.
”Does the emperor want to hear the truth or a lie?”
Lian Chengming then replied his with a sentence filled with truth.
”Then, chenqie will say the truth first! Currently, the harem's expenses are not too heavy, and the concubines are not as heavy as they were during the previous emperor's reign. They have sufficient funds to build this cold harem; after all, this cold harem is also a part of the harem. ”
”And the truth?” Lian Chengming was extremely curious.
”This is what chenqie has prepared for me. It can be said that we have to prepare for a rainy day. ”
Liu Ruyan was exceptionally calm at this moment, even her eyes were filled with serenity.
”What kind of nonsense are you spouting?”
Lian Chengming heard all these words from his mouth and was obviously very angry.
”Chenqie is not speaking nonsense. Lightning Rain Dew was a sovereign act of kindness. Chenqie was unable to resist, nor was she able to resist. Chenqie was afraid that one day, she would offend the emperor and this cold palace would be her final resting place.
”Since that's the case, why not take advantage of the fact that chenqie still has some face and that the Emperor still has some uses for her, and seize this opportunity to plan for the future?”
Liu Ruyan had always known that the emperors of this world were ruthless to begin with. They had countless women in their lives, so how many could enter into their hearts?
Perhaps, they had no heart to begin with. The harem and the previous dynasty were only chess games for him.
”Do you think that I am such a heartless and ungrateful emperor? ”Or is it that I haven't treated you well enough in the past few days?”
Lian Chengming had never thought that he would be this angry because of one thing.
”Your consort naturally knows of Your Majesty's Holy Pet.”
”Then why have you come to us like this?”
Liu Ruyan was startled, and then she increased the distance between them.
”It's not because there are too many women in this harem, but rather, there are many women with both talent and looks. Throughout the years and since ancient times, how many favored consort s and even the empress's final resting place would only be this cold palace? Chenqie didn't dare think too highly of herself, and only wanted to leave a way out for herself. I want to live a bit more comfortably for the rest of my life. ”
It was very obvious that Lian Chengming did not like hearing these words.
He suddenly approached Liu Ruyan and used her fingers to pinch her chin.
”In the heart of the beloved consort, are we really this heartless? ”Is there no emotion in my eyes but benefits?”
Liu Ruyan felt a little uncomfortable, but she did not say a word.
