Don’t Mess with the Tough Lady

Chapter 569: Reward and punishment

"Next time I won't allow you to go out alone. This time it's just a fluke. Let's go if you pass."

Although Feng Xuanche said so, God knows how scared he was when he learned of Du Xuechun's assassination, for fear that he would never see her again.

"I'm fine, and your people can return it to you." Knowing that he was really worried about himself, Du Xuechun felt warm.

Feng Xuanche heard this and shook his head.

"Since it has been given to you, it is yours. I trained Yunyiwei to let them protect you, so you should stay with these people, so I can rest assured."

"But you..."

Feng Xuan Che knew what she wanted to say, so he interrupted her with his mouth open.

"I am the emperor, and the most indispensable is the secret guard, but you are the one who makes me most uneasy!"

Du Xuechun understood his kindness, and nodded in response.

"But, having said that, has the news of my going out of the palace leaked out?"

Recalling the assassination, Du Xuechun still felt something was wrong, except for her cronies and Feng Xuanche, it was impossible for anyone to know that she was out of the palace.

When Feng Xuanche mentioned this matter, he inevitably frowned and dared to assassinate the queen, indicating that the people behind him were not so courageous, but after thinking about it, he couldn't figure out who was going to assassinate Du Xuechun.

"Perhaps they are just robbers in the forest, going for your money?"

Du Xuechun shook his head, and did not agree with this statement. The killers were in order, and they clearly came for her life, but it was not like someone who had admitted wrong.

"If you are coming for money, just block the way to grab the money, why do you want to kill people?"

Thinking of the sword in Shen Yingwu, Du Xuechun still had lingering fears. Although she was not afraid of death, but after that sword, she would die.

"It's fine, just let the subordinates investigate." Feng Xuan Che saw the fatigue between her eyebrows and felt distressed.

"I heard that the Queen Mother came with the concubines today?"

Du Xuechun's eyes darkened a bit when he mentioned the queen mother, and nodded.

"I said I came to see my body, in fact, I just want to see if I have died in Kunning Palace."

"Don't talk nonsense!" Feng Xuanche suddenly covered her mouth with a look of blame.

"My Chun'er has a kind-hearted heart, but you want to live a long life with me."

Seeing him so serious, Du Xuechun couldn't help but laughed, gently took his hand off, and suddenly remembered another thing.

"By the way, Shen Jia's son, Shen Yingwu, suffered serious injuries this time in order to save me. If it weren't for him, I'm afraid you would really not see me this time."

"I know, I will send the imperial doctor to Shen Mansion to see him."

"It's not necessary." Du Xuechun shook her head, remembering what she had promised Shen Yingwu.

"I've saved his life. As long as he takes a good rest, it's okay. It's just that I know the rewards and punishments. Since he is to save my injury, he must always pay his favor."

Feng Xuan Che knew that she had said this, and he had an idea in his heart.

"Chun'er speak, how do you want me to reward him?"

"I told him that when Shen Jia gets old, I will let him take over the position of Emperor Shen Jia. I also see his ability. He is indeed suitable for this position. I don't know what the emperor wants?"

Feng Xuanche nodded thoughtfully, but did not object.

"The queen said yes, that is naturally good, and I will have someone to formulate the decree later, so that Shen Yingwu will succeed Shen Jia in the future."

"Then I will thank the emperor for him."

"Do you still need to be so polite between you and me?"

Feng Xuanche fondly scraped Du Xuechun's nose, very sweet.

"You rushed back to the palace overnight. I guess I didn't have a good rest last night. It's too early now. You can rest for a while."

In the forest outside the capital

"The queen mother is forgiving, the queen mother is forgiving! The subordinates don't know anything, the subordinates will never betray the queen mother, please beg the queen mother for her subordinate..."

The begging for mercy continued from deep in the forest, but there were few people here, and no one would hear it.

There were five people kneeling on the ground, all dressed in night clothes, and in front of them stood a few people with knives.

The hand raised the knife and fell, the voice of begging for mercy stopped abruptly, the splashing blood stained the thick tree, a head slowly rolled to the tree, and the unwilling face was still unwilling.

"The corpses are cleaned up, and the queen mother doesn't like to leave any handles." A figure walked out from the dark, covered with black robes all over, but it was still able to tell from the voice that it was an elderly person.

At the same time, in the palace, Du Xuechun awakened from a nightmare. She suddenly sat up from the bed, breathing in air, cold sweat on her forehead.

Mingying walked in, seeing her like this, she was shocked, and quickly handed a cup of tea.

"The empress has a nightmare?"

Du Xuechun took the herbal tea, drank two sips, and finally came over: "Yes, I dreamed of bad things again."

"Do you need some tonic medicinal materials for your empress? Maybe it's because of physical weakness?"

Du Xuechun waved his hand and motioned not to: "It's just a dream, it's not that serious."

It's a dream, but it's all the past.

In the dream, Du Xuechun went through all the things in the previous life, but the Feng Xuanming inside became Feng Xuanche, and all the feelings were too real, making her confused between reality and dream.

Although she said so, Mingying was still worried and could only help her rub her forehead and relieve the headache caused by nightmares.

"Your mother is hungry? Do you need to eat?"

After a dream, now I don’t want to do anything, let alone eating, and I have no appetite at all.

"Fine, my palace is not hungry yet, where is the emperor? Has he left?"

"His Royal Highness and the princess just woke up, arguing about seeing the Niang Niang. The emperor couldn't bear to let them disturb you, so he took them to the Imperial Garden. Does the Niang go to see?"

"It's late autumn now, and the flowers are already defeated. Even if they go, it will be a depression. What's so good about it." Although she said that, the smile on the corner of her mouth has revealed her heart. How soft.

"Where does the emperor want to coax the prince and the princess? It's obviously that he loves the empress, and the two are only more than a year old. Where do you know how to appreciate the scenery, as long as you can play." Mingying laughed at Du Xuechun, and they were in a relationship harmony.

"Okay, you have a poor mouth." Du Xuechun shook his head helplessly, "Let's dress my palace, my palace should also go out and change your mood."

"Good, mother!"
