Su Zi finally snapped out of her panic and after adjusting her mood, she gently pushed the emperor who was hugging her away.
"Your Majesty, chenqie is being impolite. Please punish her!"
"No need to be so polite, are you the only one here? Where's the girl?"
"I was the only one. This girl originally had one. Last time, she was surrounded by a poisonous snake and killed by it. Your Majesty, please wait a moment. Your consort will go make tea for Your Majesty!"
After Su Zi said in a very calm tone that there was no girl here, she turned around and was about to leave. Yan Yihan quickly pulled her back. Was this woman that afraid to see him?
"Don't move, let Shunzi go!"
When the eunuch heard this, he left to find some tea.
"Why did the emperor come to such a remote area today? If something were to happen, how about …"
Yan Yihan suddenly felt relaxed. He had realized how far away this place was when he walked here and that he didn't even see a servant when he entered. He didn't even know if the palace would bring food over for her …
An Emperor's analytical ability was definitely not bad. It was easy to imagine that this woman was in a difficult situation, but would it really be difficult?
Would it be difficult for a woman in the palace?
What a lame idea.
This girl that he had never seen before looked to be only 20 years old. Although this was the first time she saw him, even though she knew he was the emperor, she didn't complain to him or tell him how difficult her situation was.
Furthermore, how was she being bullied in the palace? Instead, she was concerned about the safety of an emperor who had never come to see her before. This made Yan Yihan, who had always felt lonely, moved.
Was there finally a woman who was truly worried for him?
Yan Yihan interrupted her happily. Then, he once again reached out his hand to hold her waist and sat on the stone bench in the pavilion.
"I'm not going anywhere. I'm just talking to you here. Did you play that zither just now?"
"It was chenqie who randomly played a song and made the emperor laugh. Does the emperor have any worries?"
Su Zi's face turned red as she replied to Yan Yihan with a voice as soft as a mosquito. Her heart was uneasy; what was the Emperor planning to do? In broad daylight, he had pulled her to sit on his lap … How could she not panic?
"I have nothing on my mind. Are you afraid of me?"
With one arm around her, he pulled her hand with the other. Did he not have something on his mind? No, he had something on his mind. Something very heavy on his mind …
"I …"
Su Zi squirmed uneasily. She wanted to sit on the other side, but this man was her husband in name and was also the ruler of a country. How could she dare to reject him?
"Alright, I have something on my mind!"
Sensing that the person in his embrace was different from the other concubines, he stopped teasing her and finally released his hand, sitting there and looking at her.
Su Zi finally let out a sigh of relief. Although she was planning to meet Yan Yihan, she wasn't prepared to see the emperor today. She was just in a good mood today, so she played a song, but unexpectedly attracted this god.
Without being harassed, she quickly came to her senses and sat down quietly across from the man, who, she could see, was unhappy.
"What's your name?"
"Reporting to the emperor, my concubine's name is' Su Zi '. She is the daughter of the late Su Xing. Su Zi."
Su Xing, the person who was implicated in the case of the Black Ink Grass a few years ago, was also the Minister of Revenue at that time.
I didn't expect him to leave a daughter at the palace …
She was an orphan girl, so she must have suffered quite a bit in this deep palace. Back then, it seemed like Su Xing's only daughter had been chosen to enter the palace.
The Emperor never imagined that she would be a daughter of the Su Clan. He couldn't help but feel pity for this girl.
Back then, he had killed many officials in a fit of rage, and Su Xing, as the Minister of Revenue, had suffered even more. He was her arch enemy … Did she hate herself?
Seeming to know what he was thinking, Su Zi said faintly, "Back then, Su Zi was selected for the palace when she was 16, and her father committed a grave mistake. He deserved it. Chenqie doesn't dare to plead on his behalf, and won't blame His Majesty. Please don't take it to heart …"
Just a few days ago, a group of snakes appeared in the palace, and her own personal little girl was bitten to death. The only thing left over here was her, who didn't seem to be alive, but rather to be dead.
Even in this lifetime, she would never have the chance to see the Emperor and her nominal husband. Now, she was the only one left in the Su family, so she had to live a good life.
It was just this thought that made her treat the palace as if it was a mountain wilderness while she was an elf that lived in the mountains. She had to be carefree in order to be able to give birth to her parents …
Who would have thought that the emperor would come to this place today? Would things be peaceful in the future?
"What an understanding woman. Since I'm here, you should stay by my side in the future!"
It meant that there was no tea here, maybe there was, but the tea was too poor, so the young eunuch didn't dare to bring it up to him. Sigh, he could only go back and make the arrangements.
It wasn't that there were no women in the harem, there were many women in the harem. But who would want to get close to him and not be blocked by his concubines? How many of them had disappeared by all sorts of means?
He was not an idiot. He had only turned a blind eye to everything because he had never met someone he liked, much less someone he wanted to protect.
Today, Su Zi was an accident. The Emperor did not expect him to run around in a fit of rage and find someone to advise him. Perhaps this was heaven's will.
Su Zi was the daughter of the Minister five years ago. Forget about everything she saw and heard, her talent had already spread throughout the entire Shan Nation. Yet, such a woman was actually forced to stay in such a shitty place.
If the Emperor were to take her away now, she would definitely suffer from a strange illness tomorrow, and disappear from the world like everyone else who wanted to see him.
Yan Yihan felt sad again. As an emperor, if he wanted to be good to a woman, he would have to secretly hide, otherwise, it would be harming her.
They wanted to learn, wanted to practice, so according to Nameless's words, only by entering the hospital and coming in contact with more patients would they be able to learn something.
So now Anning Hospital was full of patients and doctors. Dongfang Ning had been busy these past few days, and it seemed that after being busy, her days would go by even faster.
