Chapter 142.2 – Face Slapping
Zhaozi Palace
Consort Yan and Wei Shun Qing, who had accidentally fallen into an adulterous affair, calculated when the banquet would be over and concluded their affair thusly. Wei Shun Qing released his seed into Consort Yan’s body. In order to get her pregnant as soon as possible, he deliberately raised her waist so that his seed may stay in her body longer.
Although the two only did it once due to the lack of time, it was more enjoyable than when they did it with other people.
With contentment in their eyes, the two embraced each other until the eunuch hurried in and told them that Emperor Chong Ming was heading their way, and then the two quickly separated.

After her desires have been drawn out, Consort Yan could not help but let out a moan, matched with her lascivious expression, it was almost enough to make Wei Shun Qing’s lower part stand up again. If the situation weren’t urgent, he definitely would have pressed her down to the bed and did it again.
Knowing that the two of them rolled around in bed together, the palace maids and eunuchs were already prepared, and even prepared water for them in advance.
Several palace maids walked in quickly. They stripped the bedding and clothes from the bed and temporarily hit them. Then they brought out fresh bedding that was exactly the same and put them on the bed. The results were clean and neat. It did not seem like their first time doing such a thing.
Consort Yan did not have time to take out the stuff inside her body. She could only take a bath in a hurry, and then put on some perfume to cover up the smell on her body. Then she walked to the entrance of Zhaozi Palace to prepare for the arrival of Emperor Chong Ming.
Talcum powder was sprinkled everywhere inside the palace hall. The smell of intercourse should not be apparent, but it was better to be safe than sorry.
Wei Shun Qing had already left Zhaozi Palace from the back exit.
Emperor Chong Ming never got a chance to arrive at Zhaozi Palace. No matter how fast he walked, the laowangye still caught him halfway there.
“Imperial Uncle?”
Emperor Chong Ming looked in surprise at the laowangye who wore a dark expression on his face. His voice carried a hint of tentativeness. He also saw that the laowangye was different from what he had seen a few times before, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.

“So the emperor actually recognizes this imperial uncle of his, bravo!” The laowangye looked at the emperor with a shadowy expression on his face. No matter how one looked at the old man, it seemed like he was preparing to eat the emperor for a snack.
Emperor Chong Ming’s eyelid jumped*. His premonition could not be wrong. The imperial uncle before him must be clear of mind at the moment. Thinking of this, it was almost like an instinctive action for him to give Head Eunuch Wang Ping a meaningful look. The eunuch immediately understood. Fortunately there weren’t many people along the road to Zhaozi Palace.
[*T/N: There’s a superstition that if your eyelid jumps, it’s a portent of what’s to come.]
In fact, even without Wang Ping’s actions, those people have already left very consciously. No one wanted to be singled out by the emperor. In the next part, only one person had to die.
“Imperial Uncle, why are you here? Didn’t you go to Grandmother’s place?”
Emperor Chong Ming did not like this imperial uncle of his, but as long as the empress dowager still lived, then he did not dare to touch a single hair on his imperial uncle’s head.
What’s more, before his imperial father passed away, he had given his imperial uncle supreme power. No matter how incompetent he was he would not dare to do something like deceiving his masters and destroying his ancestors.
The laowangye smiled coldly, “If I hadn’t come from your grandmother’s place, I would not have know that you made your grandmother sick for the sake of a lowly concubine!”
Sure enough, it was about this matter!
Emperor Chong Ming explained with a dry smile: “Imperial Uncle, you must have heard some rumors and misunderstood, I didn’t…”
“You dare to make excuses.” The laowangye practically wanted to eat him alive. The anger in his eyes looked hot enough to burn. He glared at Emperor Chong Ming and said one word at a time: “If you were not the emperor, I would have strangled you long ago. Since you are incompetent, disloyal, and unfilial, are you still worthy of being the emperor?”
Emperor Chong Ming could not squeeze out another smile after that.
Fu Wu Tian put his arms around his wangfei, and relished the scene of the emperor getting scolded to the high heavens.
It was the first time that An Zi Ran was witnessing such a formidable laowangye. The old man even dared to point at the emperor’s face and said that he would strangle him. An Zi Ran finally understood why the emperor hated the Fu wangfu so much, to the point that he would disregard all blood relationships in order to drag them off their high horse.

“Imperial Uncle, no matter what I am an emperor.” Emperor Chong Ming couldn’t help but grimaced.
The laowangye sneered, “You should be glad that you are the emperor.”
If Chong Ming were not the emperor, then he, the imperial uncle would have killed this unfilial son for the sake of the late emperor. How could he be allowed to live until now?
“I’m warning you one last time. I don’t care what kind of absurd things you do, but if you dare to anger your grandmother again, then I will be the first person to come for your hide. And also, that Consort Yan that you conferred a title on, have her restrain herself a little, otherwise I will behead this source of calamity.”
After flinging out these words, the laowangye left without bothering to look at Emperor Chong Ming’s ugly expression.
Being an emperor and doing what he did, being pressed on his head by his imperial uncle and stomped all over on his face was indeed a bit embarrassing, but if it wasn’t for the ridiculousness of Emperor Chong Ming’s actions, this kind of thing would not have happened. But unfortunately Emperor Chong Ming never thought he did anything wrong, so he just resented the entire Fu family.
The next day, the news that the laowangye reprimanded Emperor Chong Ming was spread out.
But no one dared to blatantly gossip about the emperor, not unless they thought they’ve been living for too long and wanted to see if it hurt to have their heads chopped off. So the gossip that spread more broadly was about Consort Yan.
Except for Zhaozi Palace, all the concubines of the Six Palaces heard about this incident. There was no sympathy to be had, instead it was all laughter of schadenfreude.
