Yu Qian suddenly wanted to see a panicked expression on Yue Chen's face at this moment. No matter what kind of soul was inhabiting Yue Chen's body now, it really piqued his interest. His eunuchs were waiting outside. Without his permission, they wouldn't come in to disturb, and besides, who would dare to say anything about matters between the emperor and the empress? Yu Su thought that by protecting her position as empress and eliminating his forces in the court, everything would go as he wished. They really underestimated him. If they made him unhappy, they wouldn't have an easy time either.

　　"What if I really do this? What will the empress do then?" Yu Qian said, approaching Chen Zhi. His breath lingered in Chen Zhi's ear, making her uncomfortable. Chen Zhi clenched her hands into fists, and emotions were faintly brewing in her eyes. Those who knew Chen Zhi well knew that this was the calm before the storm.

　　Chen Zhi suddenly laughed. Her eyes, as clear as water, were like bright stars, momentarily stunning Yu Qian. Even though Yu Qian looked down on Yue Chen's weak character, he couldn't deny that Yue Chen had a truly beautiful face. It was just that her timid nature overshadowed her appearance. When Yue Chen stood with Yun Lian, his eyes would easily be drawn to Yun Lian, while Yue Chen always hung her head, looking listless.

　　"Looking at you this closely, the emperor has a rather good appearance." Yu Qian's mother concubine, although of low - born origin, was a well - known beauty. Yu Qian and Yu Su shared a three - point resemblance. However, one was an emperor living in comfort, and the other was a prince regent who had experienced battles on the battlefield. Their auras were completely different. Yu Su carried a murderous aura, and his expression commanded respect even without anger, while Yu Qian was relatively more gentle.

　　Chen Zhi calculated in her heart that it was about time. "I'm not really amnesiac, but I really don't remember the past. You can't find any flaws or doubts because this is the truth."

　　"Is the empress admitting it now because she's afraid and can't think of a countermeasure?" Yu Qian said, slightly reducing the force on Chen Zhi's shoulder.

　　"The emperor probably forgot one thing. This Changle Palace is my residence. You come to my territory and still act so arrogantly and rudely," Chen Zhi said.

　　Yu Qian burst out laughing, as if he had heard a very funny joke. "It seems the empress has really forgotten everything. The whole world belongs to me, and the harem is also established for me. The empress must have hit her head hard. Her mind is starting to become muddled."

　　Chen Zhi felt that the pressure on her body had weakened and knew that her chance had come. Suddenly, she bent her knees. Chen Zhi curled her lips. This move would allow her not to see the face in front of her for a while.

　　Chen Zhi got off the bed, lifted the lid of the red sandalwood burner, and the incense - like drug inside had burned out.

　　On the bed, Yu Qian curled up into a ball, cold sweat breaking out on his back, veins bulging on his forehead. At this moment, the imperial dignity had long since disappeared, leaving only a distorted face. Perhaps Chen Zhi was the first person in Yu Qian's life to treat him like this. Which concubine in the harem didn't fawn on him and try to please him?

　　"I already reminded you. Changle Palace is my territory, but you insisted on coming here to cause trouble." Chen Zhi tilted her head. She was rather helpless that he had come to ask for it.

　　"You... How dare you..." Yu Qian was both ashamed, annoyed, and extremely angry. This woman, Yue Chen, actually injured him in this place, leaving him with no way to express his suffering. He was even more reluctant to call in the eunuchs to see this. As a matter of dignity, the fewer people who knew, the better. Yu Qian's consciousness gradually became hazy. He raised his eyes and saw Chen Zhi looking indifferent. Looking aside, the lid of the red sandalwood burner had been lifted. Yu Qian suddenly understood. But it was too late. He fell forward and fell into a coma.

　　Chen Zhi touched her earlobe, frowned, and her face was full of disgust. The drug in the incense was very strong. Yu Qian would at least be in a coma until dawn tomorrow. His personal eunuch was waiting outside. She would have to climb out of the window if she wanted to go out. Thinking of this, she was even more in a bad mood.

　　Changle Palace had always been the residence of the empress. It covered a large area and was extremely well - equipped. The side hall to the left of the main hall was a hot spring. Thinking that this womanizing emperor, Yu Qian, had been so close to her just now, breathing in her ear, Chen Zhi quickened her steps. She was going to take a good soak in the hot spring to wash away the filth on her body. She didn't care how Yue Chen had been with him in the past, but now that she was the one in Yue Chen's body, the dog emperor could forget about it even in his dreams.

　　Yu Su rushed over with Rong Quan, followed by Rong Li. What kind of charm did this woman, Yue Chen, have? In the past, the prince regent could command with calmness when facing an enemy at the city gates and remain composed even in desperate situations. Rong Li, as a counselor, had been by Yu Su's side for ten years. He thought that there was nothing in the world that could move Yu Su. Rong Li had no contact with Yue Chen and didn't know what kind of connection she had with the prince. The prince had never mentioned her in front of them. But this return to the capital had overturned his perception.

　　When they entered the palace with swords drawn and saw her body in the cold palace, the prince didn't show excessive grief on his face. But since that Yue Chen woke up, the prince he knew had become a bit strange. Rong Quan, the top - ranked master beside the prince, was a guard personally trained by the late emperor to protect the prince. Without hesitation, Yu Su left him with Yue Chen. In Rong Li's heart, Yue Chen didn't deserve Yu Su at all. She was a woman who had her heart set on someone else, blind and foolish.

　　After the prince returned from the Imperial Medical Office, the murderous aura around him had weakened a lot. When alone in the mansion, the prince, who never showed his emotions, had an unhidden smile on his face and often fell into deep thought. Rong Quan reported every move of Yue Chen to Yu Su's desk every day.

　　When Rong Quan came to report that Yu Qian had gone to Changle Palace at night, Yu Su rushed over impatiently. But he only saw Yu Qian unconscious on the bed. The posture was rather strange, as if he had experienced some kind of pain. This really piqued Rong Li's interest. The Yue Chen who had woken up after hitting her head against a pillar was really puzzling and fascinating.

　　Yu Su stopped outside the side hall, listening intently to the unknown cheerful tune coming from inside. Rong Li stood beside Yu Su. Through the door and window, it could be heard that the person humming the tune was in a good mood. The smell of the incense - like drug that hadn't completely dissipated filled the inner room. This Yue Chen was really bold. She dared to use the drug on the emperor. Wasn't she afraid that Yu Qian would punish her after waking up?

　　"Your Highness, aren't you going in?" Rong Quan asked. The prince had rushed here from the prince's mansion in a hurry, only to stand outside the hall guarding the door.

　　Yu Su's eyes were filled with a smile. "As long as she's safe." This was his Yue Chen, living so freely and fearlessly. It seemed his decision back then was right. Only by becoming the prince regent above all others and holding the power of life and death could he protect Yue Chen, who constantly got into trouble.

　　Rong Li gave Rong Quan a punch on the head. "What are you talking about? Can't you tell that the person inside is taking a bath? If you let the prince go in at this time, what do you take the prince for? A lecher?"

　　"I didn't take him for anything. You're the one who said lecher," Rong Quan replied honestly, immediately leaving Rong Li speechless.
