Chapter 403: The Concubine Who Was Buried with the Emperor VS The Ruthless and Romantic Emperor 51
At this time, Concubine Shu had already rushed into the sea of ​​fire.

The raging fire devoured her mercilessly, and her figure was looming in the fire.

Everyone was shocked by Concubine Shu's crazy behavior and was at a loss as to what to do. They watched her struggle in the fire.

Suddenly, the sad singing of Concubine Shu was heard from the flames.

It was a sad love song, the singing was gentle and mournful, as if telling of the endless love and despair in her heart.

Her voice pierced through the roar of the flames and echoed over the ruins.

"Love is like the sun and the moon, there is no hope in this life. Your heart is like iron, and my love is hard to repay..."

Every word was filled with her deep affection and pain, and everyone present was touched by the sadness in the song.

Emperor Jing stood there with mixed feelings.

He looked at the figure gradually falling in the sea of ​​fire, and thought of the days when Concubine Shu served him. Although he could not say that she had deep affection for him, there was still some affection between them.

But what she did today was truly unforgivable, yet at the moment of her death, she sang such a heartbreaking song.

Emperor Jing felt complicated, not knowing whether he should be angry at her cruelty or pity her madness.

The queen and the concubines present also sighed in their hearts.

The queen shook her head slightly. Although she hated Concubine Shu, she just felt that it was really sad that the women in the harem were so crazy in vying for favor and ended up like this.

The concubines also had their own thoughts. Some felt sorry for Concubine Shu, while others were glad that they did not end up in such a desperate situation.

Yu Yao leaned in Emperor Jing's arms, listening to the song, and couldn't help but lower her eyes.

Concubine Shu had been in the palace for the shortest time, but her love for Emperor Jing was the most crazy.

Just like a flash in the pan, it blooms the most beautifully but withers the fastest.

The Queen wanted to ask why no one came to rescue Concubine Shu, but seeing the Emperor's complicated expression, she did not ask the question.

Something must have happened in between that she didn't know about, but it was not convenient to ask now.

After a long time, the singing gradually faded away, and Concubine Shu also disappeared forever in the sea of ​​fire.

The flames gradually died down, leaving only the dead silent ruins, as if telling the thrilling story that had just happened.

Emperor Jing took a deep breath and broke the silence: "I hope everyone will remember what happened today. Don't let such incidents happen again in the harem."

His voice was low and authoritative, carrying an unquestionable command.

As soon as he said this, the concubines present knew that the fire today was caused by Concubine Shu. This also explained why the Emperor did not allow anyone to rescue Concubine Shu.

The Queen quickly responded, "Your Majesty is right. I will take good care of everyone in the harem and will not let this happen again."

The concubines in various palaces also bowed to show their willingness to follow the emperor's will.

The Xinghua Palace was destroyed by fire, and there was no suitable palace for the time being.

Emperor Jing brought Yu Yao back to live in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The queen frowned slightly and wanted to speak to stop him, but when she met Emperor Jing's cold eyes, she swallowed her words.

Yu Yao moved into the Hall of Supreme Harmony with Emperor Jing, a move that caused an uproar in the harem.

The Hall of Supreme Harmony was originally where the Emperor handled government affairs and rested, and seldom allowed his concubines to stay overnight. Now that Qin Zhaorong had moved in, although the concubines were dissatisfied, they could only be angry but not speak out.

In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, candlelight flickered.

Yu Yao was carefully placed on the dragon couch. Her belly was bulging so high that her toes couldn't be seen.

Emperor Jing sat beside her, his eyes full of tenderness and self-blame.

He gently held her hand, "Yao'er, do you know how afraid I am of losing you?"

His voice was deep and sincere, and every word seemed to flow from the depths of his heart.

Yu Yao raised her head with a complicated look in her eyes. She sighed and said slowly, "Your Majesty, I am also worried. Although this palace is magnificent, it is also a place where people's hearts are unpredictable. All I want is to be with you for the rest of our lives, and live an ordinary life together. But..." Upon hearing this, a trace of pain flashed across Emperor Jing's eyes. He held her hand tightly and said seriously, "Yao'er, I was wrong. I have ordered that the number of times the concubines in the harem pay respects to each other be reduced, and the Jingshifang does not have to present the green card every day. I know you have resentment in your heart, but I will prove with my actions that your position in my heart is unmatched."

Upon hearing this, Yu Yao gently stroked her bulging belly, feeling the rhythm of life, with a myriad of thoughts in her mind.

Although the Dog Emperor seems to be affectionate, he is an emperor after all, with three palaces and six courtyards and many beauties.

Even if the number of times the cards are flipped is reduced, there are so many women in the harem, and each one of them would try their best to win favor.
Just like Concubine Shu, who was so crazy and had no bottom line in her quest for favor, and ended up like that.

The Dog Emperor may be sincere to her now, but who can guarantee that he will not be seduced by other women in the future?

But when he thought about the Dog Emperor jumping into the fire to save him without hesitation, he felt troubled again.

Emperor Jing seemed to see through her thoughts and said hurriedly: "Yao'er, my love for you has never changed, but you are pregnant and it is inconvenient for me to serve you. I am a normal man and it is inevitable that I will be greedy for pleasure. When the child in your belly is born, I will not want other women to sleep with me at that time. Having a demon like you is enough..."

As he spoke later, his words became somewhat sarcastic, making people want to laugh.

Even he couldn't resist the play of this woman, she was really like a soul-sucking demon.

Although she would not be served as well as Concubine Shu, it was still an unprecedented pleasure.

Yu Yao had no idea what he was thinking, so she burst out laughing.

Her eyes were full of playfulness and sarcasm: "Your Majesty, what you said makes me almost become a fox fairy in the storybook, specializing in sucking the emperor's soul."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Jing laughed out loud with a delighted look on his face, "Oh? Then I am the tyrant who is willing to be bewitched by the goblin. I only want to enjoy the pleasure of lovemaking with you, regardless of the ups and downs in the court or the disturbances in the harem."

Yu Yao covered her mouth and chuckled, "Your Majesty, if the sisters in the harem heard what you said, I'm afraid they would be jealous."

Emperor Jing laughed, his eyes full of doting: "They? How can they compare to you. Yao'er, do you know that in this harem, only you can make me willingly put away all my edge and just want to spend this ordinary yet precious time with you."

As he spoke, he gently held her in his arms, and the two were so close that they could almost feel each other's breath.

Yu Yao's cheeks turned slightly red, but she did not dodge. She just leaned gently against his chest, enjoying this rare tranquility and warmth.

"Your Majesty, I have a favor to ask."

She suddenly said seriously, with a cunning flash in her eyes.

"Oh? Yao'er, what is your wish? Just tell me, I will definitely fulfill it."

Emperor Jing had a look of anticipation on his face, as if he was ready to pick the stars from the sky for her.

Yu Yao smiled slightly, leaned close to his ear, and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I think, after the baby is born, Your Majesty can accompany me to take a walk outside the palace and see the fireworks of the people, okay?"

When Emperor Jing heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then his face was full of smiles.

He is a naturally unrestrained person and yearns for a free and easy life.

If it weren't for his identity as an emperor, shouldering the responsibility of the country and the people, he would not be willing to be trapped in the imperial study all day reviewing memorials and dealing with a bunch of messy matters.

I am exhausted as a dog every day. Not only do I have no freedom, but I also have to face the faces of those ministers in the court.

"Okay, Yao'er, I promise you. When the baby is one month old, I will accompany you on a secret tour to travel around the beautiful country, so that you can see with your own eyes how beautiful this world is."

Emperor Jing's voice was full of tenderness and promise.

He really wanted to go out for a walk, just to relax.

Yu Yao was filled with joy when she heard his words. She curled her lips and smiled, "Your Majesty, please do not regret it. I have longed for the world outside the palace for a long time."

We can also take this opportunity to cure the dog emperor's romantic problem.

Don't you like playing? Then let him play to his heart's content.

I promise I will be afraid of women in the future...

For some reason, Emperor Jing suddenly felt a little creepy and his back went cold.

He shrank his neck and pretended to be calm and said, "What kind of tricks are you thinking in your little head, Yao'er? I am looking forward to going out of the palace with you, so please don't tease me."

Yu Yao blinked her eyes and said innocently, "Your Majesty, how dare I do that? I just thought that the world outside the palace is new and interesting, and it will surely open Your Majesty's eyes."
