After Xiao Rin finished speaking, he didn't want to stay any longer, so he turned around and walked away. However, as soon as he walked out of the room, behind him, Xie Shang burst into tears, crying loudly to show how sad she was. In between her cries, she said,
"Your Majesty, you can't leave. If you leave, I'll really become a joke in the harem, and the Consort of Reverent Benignity and the others will laugh at me to death. Woo! Woo! Your Majesty, if you don't favor me, I'll have no face left."
[T/N: "To have no face left" means to be embarrassed.]
There was complete silence in the bedroom, and the eunuchs and palace maids all bowed their heads so low as if they wanted to bury their heads in their chests.
The Noble Consort's courage is unrivaled. She even asked the emperor to come to her palace and sleep with her. How much does she want to be with a man?
In the bedroom, Xiao Rin's anger, which had finally calmed down, surged up again. His handsome face became flushed in anger, and his breathing became slightly more rapid.
His eyes were gloomy and hostile, and it took him a long time before he slowly exhaled and said, "I'll change my clothes first, and I'll come to see you at night."
After Xiao Rin finished speaking, he turned around and walked away, feeling very aggrieved as an emperor at this moment.
Obviously, he is at the top of the hierarchy chain in the Great Xia Dynasty and is considered to have the Supreme authority in the whole empire, but he still has to worry about a courtier's face when he acts. Otherwise, Xie Shang's behavior today would have landed her in the cold palace.
But he can't act like this. Not only can he not act like this, but to give some face to Prime Minister Xie, he also has to come to favor this woman.
The more Xiao Rin thought about it, the more angry he became, and he stormed out of the room.
Xie Shang, who was kneeling behind him, ignored Xiao Rin and focused solely on her points as they rose once more.
Three hundred, three hundred one, three hundred two.
God, these points increase too easily. Will she be able to return to the modern age soon?
Just as Xie Shang was thinking about it, in the bedroom, Dr. Zhao's cautious voice sounded, "If the Noble Consort allows, This Imperial Physician will go to prescribe the medicine first."
Xie Shang broke out of her reverie and said to Lanyu, "Send Dr. Zhao out to prescribe the medicine."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Lanyu's face was pale, and her body was shaking. God! Her Highness's actions had scared her to death. Woo. Woo.
Xie Shang and Hongyu were the only ones left in the bedroom.
Hongyu stepped forward to help Xie Shang up.
"Your Highness, you are so courageous, you were about to scare us slaves to death."
Xie Shang cast a sidelong glance at Hongyu and saw that her face was a little pale, and the hand she was supporting her with was also trembling slightly.
Xie Shang was a little embarrassed. It seems that she had scared her maidservant.
"It's okay, don't worry, the Emperor will not humiliate us."
Hongyu felt that Xie Shang's words were a bit strange. If the Young Madam knew that what she was doing would enrage the Emperor, then why did she still do it?
"Your Highness, although the Emperor will not embarrass the Young Madam at this moment, the Emperor will definitely keep in mind these actions of the Young Madam. In the future, if the new grievances and the old grievances are considered together, it definitely won't be good for the Young Madam."
At present, the majority of the courtiers side with the prime minister, since the emperor has only been in charge for a little over a year. But what about the time when the emperor truly controls the Great Xia Dynasty? Will he still spare their Young Madam?
Xie Shang chuckled in her heart when she heard Hongyu's words. 'By then, this big sister (I) would have returned to the modern era. I don't care if he settles the old and new grievances together.'
But seeing that her maid was quite frightened, it was not good to frighten her anymore. "Okay, I will pay more attention in the future."
Hongyu finally breathed a sigh of relief and helped Xie Shang to lie down on the bed.
Xie Shang was already injured, and she was even more tired after all this drama, so she told Hongyu, "Go out. I will rest for a while."
Hongyu wanted to say something more, but she had to step back because the Young Madam had already closed her eyes, and she could see that although the Young Madam spoke softly, her attitude was strong, and there was no hesitation in her voice.
